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!

"Lettuce in, it's cold out here!"

[knifewithnoname]

She wrinkles her nose, takes a moment to hear the words and figure it out...

Then she smiled. Lettuce in. Let us in?

"I do be getting it."

[death_from_above]

He grinned proudly at her.

"Knock knock!"

[knifewithnoname]

She sighs dramatically. "This door do be being very busy. Who do it be being?"

[death_from_above]

He grinned at the cheekiness. Now she was starting to get the hang of it.

"Who."

[knifewithnoname]

"No I did be asking who. Did you be forgetting how your riddles did be working?"

She raised an eyebrow.

[death_from_above]

He grinned. "I forgot nothing. Ask."

[knifewithnoname]

Another overly dramatic sigh.

"Who... Who?"

This was stupid.

[death_from_above]

"Owl'll you liking these jokes?" he asked with a grin.

[knifewithnoname]

She blinked, another sigh. Once again she didn't understand.

Owl? Like the animal? Likes the jokes? Owls like these jokes?

She doesn't say anything, determined not to sound stupid as she tries to figure it out.

[death_from_above]

He bounced as he waited, happy to give her the time.

[knifewithnoname]

She sighed again. "Do owls be liking jokes?"

Because she's got nothing. This is stupid.

[death_from_above]

"Who Who.... like an owl goes....?"

[knifewithnoname]

"An owl do be going who who?" She wrinkled her nose, "I did no never be seeing an owl before."

[death_from_above]

"What? Seriously?" he asked, startled. "Oh. Well... they kind of sound like mourning doves but louder and deeper..." he rubbed the back of his neck. What kind of world were these people from that she and Tidus knew so little about animals?

[knifewithnoname]

"Oh." She wrinkled her nose. "Owls do be being good at killing, that do be being what I do be knowing about owls."

There weren't any owls native to Gauig though, so she had never seen one, or heard one.

[death_from_above]

"Well yeah, most animals are. They kind of have to be."

[knifewithnoname]

"Yes." She nodded, "Or they will be starving."

She grinned. "Did you be running out of riddles?"

[death_from_above]

"Never!" he said cheerfully. "What did the wall say to the floor?"

[knifewithnoname]

"Nothing." She frowned at him. "Walls can no be speaking."

Actually in some worlds they probably could. It was the sort of stupid thing that would happen.

[death_from_above]

"It's a riddle, pretend they could, what would they say?"

[knifewithnoname]

Pretend they could... A wall... Talking to the floor.

"I do no be knowing... I do no be knowing what walls would be talking about."

Even if they could talk.

[death_from_above]

"They'd say... meet you at the corner!" he said. "Alright then, fine, try this one. What did they hat say to the shoe?"

[knifewithnoname]

Oh. That wasn't... Surely they met at all the sides and not just the corner?

Hats spoke too in riddle world? "Something stupid I do be being sure."

[death_from_above]

"Not stupid, funny," he informed her. "You go on foot, I'll go on ahead!" he delivered the punchline with a proud of himself grin. C'mon, that one was classic, she had to get that one.
