Who: Everyone's Invited!
Where: Various decorated carriages!
When: Horseshoe 31.
What: Della is hosting a Halloween party! Come for treats, tricks, and trouble!
Warnings: N/A, will update it needed.

The room is dark…why aren’t the lights on? But as the doors fully open, a voice begins laughing darkly…

… although if you’ve ever heard the voice of Della Duck, you’ll recognize her immediately.

“Boys and girls of every age, wouldn’t you like to see something strange?”

Suddenly there’s a big THUD as someone drops from the ceiling, the lights flash on, and Della herself, dressed as a zombie – ripped apart clothes, fake blood here and there, drawn on scars - wiggles her fingers before laughing joyfully. “Happy Halloween, everybody! Let’s party!”

Tasty Treats

A big buffet table of candy and punch has been laid out! Mini chocolate bars and multi-colored lollipops, gummy worms and candy corn, all sorts of sweet and sour shenanigans, ghost-shaped cookies and mummy-looking muffins! There’s plenty to eat, with absolutely no healthy alternatives.

There are also small wrapped bags of candy with the letters “T.o.T” written on them. If someone tells you, “Trick or Treat!” you have to share your candy! Or keep it to yourself, you monster.

Haunted House

Thanks to Seto Kaiba’s projections, a neighboring carriage has been converted into a Haunted House! While it’s all a trick on the eyes, it gives the illusion that there are several floors of spookiness. Each floor has a different theme –

#1 Serial Seriousness – Every so often, a masked intruder pops out at you, with long claws or chainsaw, ready to give chase! Be careful, or you’ll be the next victim!

#2 Zombie Zaniness – Moans and groans of the undead can’t be unheard. Rotting arms will try to swipe at you through the floorboards!

#3 Ghostly Games – You can see through them, and they can see you too! Each mirror reflects a different dastardly demon!

#4 Deadly Doctors – In this hospital, it’s not the awful health insurance that’ll kill you! Beware the bloody nurses and their extra big needles!\

#5 Fishy Fears - … Wait, what? … Okay, this last floor was clearly designed by Della. It’s like Under the Sea, but with sharks and octopi and kraken - and Della insists this is the worst floor.

Feel free to have your characters braving the house, or trying to scare people within!

Dance Floor

If being haunted isn’t your thing, nothing wrong with getting your groove on! Ask DJ Della what kind of song you’d like to play, and she’s happy to put on the list, from a classic Monster Mash to something more somber and soulful for you slow-dancing-romantic-vampire-types.

Turnip Carving
… Look, they didn’t have pumpkins. Anyway, you’re encouraged to carve scary and silly faces in these veggies! There is a contest, but everyone will be a winner, from “Most Realistic” to “Most Depressing” !

Movie Mania
Kick back and relax – and be horrified – at the otherworldly horror films! Like the horrific monster mime, “That”, the relentless umpire-mask wearing killer, “Monday the 20th”, and the endless array of the undead, “Midmorning Of The Not Wholly Alive”!

Some of you awful people might be thinking of popping up and scaring the theater-goers and this is /winkwinknudgenudge/ totally not approved. /plausible deniability/

Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark
In one secluded, quiet, and verrry dark carriage, lit only by candles, here you are encouraged to tell the scariest stories you can think of! What eerie legends will you share from your world, or do you dare to make it up as you go along?

Make your own top-level, and happy haunting!

Also, if your character would like to dress up, costumes are available for this night only!

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

"Okay then!" Hey, he's willing to give it a go. "I'll ask Rolo or someone for how to word it. And then you can do whatever you want with it. If you can get through to someone out there... well, we're not hurting anyone, right? We just want to know what's out there!"

They're just a crew of innocent kidnapped individuals who absolutely don't want to get the ride they're on in trouble with the space police. Or see what happens.

"He might have some ideas, yeah. I don't think there's any harm since a radio just picks things up. It's after you modify it that it does more." Senku looked like he was itching to modify something.

Being in trouble with the space police sounds like a future problem.

"So if I get a radio," he says, all those projections and the spooky mist and wooOOoOOoOos going on around them all appropriately being ignored, "would you need anything else? To make it do more."

To definitely get in trouble with the space police.

It was a perfect place for a covert conversation, almost as good as the quiet rooms where they could whisper and be out of the way.

Senku hummed and shook his head. "No. I mean, yes, probably, but the modifications aren't too difficult to turn it into something that broadcasts. I've done it before." That was true, at least, he did know what he was doing in that regard.

"So- we could send a signal out?" That gets him to pause in his walking. "Put out a message, see if anything hits? What happened when you did that?"

This could end up going nowhere, but Tidus is intrigued, excited for the moment.

"Yeah." Senku answered. "That would be my plan if we could pick something up. I built this cell phone to get communications up but what we didn't count on, was picking up this signal from the moon. After I challenged it, whoever it is, changed the signal." He responded, thinking about it.

"Won't talk to me directly, but now he's trying to put us all back to stone again, that says something. It's an aggressive move, meaning that our suspicions that they may be an enemy may be correct."

That gets a small whistle from Tidus. "What's his problem? What do you even get out of doing that?" Putting people back into stone? Tidus tries to think, but...

"I wouldn't play friends with that guy, whatever his intentions."

"No idea." Senku answered with a shake of his head. "I'm not good at discerning motivations, but the Mentalist is. He'd tell me if he thought of something." He commented.

"I'm not that inclined to be friendly, but we have to try at least, I guess. Just in case he's not hostile, but considering his second response was to try and repetrify the planet...yeah I'm not too hopeful at the moment that he's not an enemy."

A scoff. "If he's got good intentions, he's up himself to think you're not worth telling them to. But I dunno what good sticking you in stone is... but you get people like that. Deciding what's good for the rest of the world. "

He cocks his head. "One guy back in Spira decided it'd be better for everyone if he just destroyed everything. 'Cause or something or other."

Because of dumb motives.

He chuckled at that. "Ah, well we don't know each other and we haven't met, I'm sure he doesn't know me from any other bipedal creature on the planet, since I suspect he probably is not human. The signal is coming from the moon."

He nodded. "Boring, that. I've known people like that. They think they know best and want to reshape the world given the opportunity they've been presented with. That's so boring though. Isn't it more of a challenge to save everyone? I mean, we're talking seven and a half billion people." He grinned.

It probably sounded callous to people who didn't know Senku that he saw it as a challenge and not some kind of altruism but really, it was a mix of both.

it's halloween, lo-ween, everybody!
