it's halloween, lo-ween, everybody!

[sos_pilot]

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!

"And that'd be how many hours?" No lie, she's impressed.

She could try and do the maths, but at the same time, she's not sure she wants to try it without a calculator.

[10billionpercent]

He spouted out the conversion without a moment's thought. Senku could do some pretty complex math in his head, with a wide variety of formulas, but as far as math went for him, this part was simple.

"Six hours, twenty-three minutes and seven seconds, although you're already up to twenty-three there."

[mtsilver_conquor]

"Show off," she mutters, but there's a laugh in her voice, and a grin trying to worm its way onto her face.

"If you can't count while sleeping. I could see if I can get Roro or Lele to keep a count?"

It might be worth trying, either now or in the future.

[10billionpercent]

He snickered and shrugged. "I counted for 3700 years, I don't know why you'd think I'd stop now." He grinned. "Besides, that's how you use a sextant, knowing the time."

It always came back to science. "I won't discourage that, I'm really curious how much time is passing while we're sleeping."

[mtsilver_conquor]

"It's also a good way to tell if you're an imposter or not. Though the bond's likely the better way, at least for us," Eva muses thoughtfully before shrugging. They can cross that stream when they get to it.

"Same, but it hinges on if they can do it or not and if they can't, then on rigging up something that can while going over any and all info we've we've got about the train."

[10billionpercent]

"I'd like to see someone try to impersonate me!" Senku giggled slightly at that. "I hope they're smart and can tell you all the very important science facts."

He grinned broadly, nodding at her plan. "Hmm, maybe Gen. He might be able to fake being me, if you didn't press too hard."

[mtsilver_conquor]

She nods. "And that's assuming he has a reason to do it in the first place. I admit I'd be suspicious, but I'd also assume you'd have thought up a way to let me know what's going on so I could help the ruse if needed."

[10billionpercent]

"Sure, just assume if he's impersonating me there's some kind of plot afoot." He snickered. "I mean really, why would he otherwise? It's not like he can't get what he wants on his own."

[mtsilver_conquor]

"True, and if there ever is a plot like that, I'm going to need popcorn, though hopefully there won't be too much chaos."

[10billionpercent]

"Chaos." Senku responded with a grin. "Is the best part, it would be boring otherwise!"

[mtsilver_conquor]

"Well, yes, but too much of it and you start to lose control of the plot." For a second, it seems as if she's uncomfortable with the notion, but then it's gone. "Though, at least here it can't spiral out of control."

Hopefully.

[10billionpercent]

"Nah, I prefer controlled chaos, I wouldn't want to completely lose what's going on." He chuckled lightly. "Controlled chaos is fun."

[mtsilver_conquor]

"That it is," Eva agrees with a smug smile more teeth than anything.

"Have you done the Zombies yet?"

[10billionpercent]

Excellent. He knew there was something he liked about Eva, and that could very well be it. She was a kindred spirit.

"No, I haven't, what's exciting about the zombies?"

He wasn't very easily scared, he figured.

[mtsilver_conquor]

She is very much a fairy-grass type at soul.

"Not much, but there's Zombie arms and it's fun to dodge them."

[10billionpercent]

"Yeah, sure, let's go dodge some zombie arms." He smirked and gestured for her to lead the way.

"This is such a strange holiday."

Wanna wrap this up?

[mtsilver_conquor]

"Sure, and it really is. But," Eva shrugs as she leads the way. "It's kinda fun, too."

Yep, all set!

[10billionpercent]

Senku just chuckled at that without comment and followed after her.
