LOCATION: Halloween Town.

WHAT: _HALLOWEEN! HALLOWEEN! ^HALLOWEEN!
RATING: idk. PG → PG13ish.
OTHER: Party Style. No tag order required.


[ in the spirit of halloween, masane had gone out in costume and pestered the poor residents of traverse town for candy and other sweet treats. it's what the holiday was about, after all... or at least what it had become about. but that didn't matter! because as the day drew to a close she couldn't help but squeal in absolute delight. ]

[ halloween town! ]

[ she was finally going to get to go there and on the best possible night. she'd told everybody to meet up at the traverse town gummi docks at six, sharp, and as it drew closer to time she scrambled to get ready. it was almost a relief, actually, that she didn't have to bother with a costume... though she was still scared skeptical about the town choosing it. oh well--! yolo. ]

[ panting as she reached the dock, she meandered over to a bench to sit. hopefully everybody would arrive soon so they could start the fun! ]

( ooc | this is going to be masane's outfit. )

( note | ok. let's get this show on the road. everybody is in halloween town now. no more dock! so in order to keep things from becoming an absolute clusterfuck please make new threads with headers to explain what your character will be doing. trick or treating. hiding in a bush. going into a haunted house. whatever. if you'd only like certain people in it... please make a note of that in the header. closed. open. let's start having fun! 83 ...and feel free to ignore the first string of comments. that had been the meet up at the dock! )

Comments

[eagleofautozam]

[Not usually late... on this occasion Eagle did arrive a touch later than six. Complications arose that delayed his arrival. But he was here now, looking a little worn out from having rushed over to the gummi ship dock.]

I'm sorry I held you up. I should have called and told you to go ahead without me.

[bitchblade]

It's alright. [ and she waves a hand dismissively. she's not going to hold it against you, eagle. for having been such a stickler about it she'd just made it on time. if anything, she should have been here earlier. she's just glad to see you besides! incoming hug! ] Nah. I'd have made everybody wait. We're all in this together, after all!

by the fountain.

[bitchblade]

[ as the gummi ship arrived at the dock masane stepped out and froze. er. uh. alright. sure. she hadn't expected this place to be genuinely frightening. no. instead she had expected a sort of grade school level of scary. she had been informed otherwise, however, but she'd taken those warning with a grain of salt and now, well, ...now she was kicking herself for not having listened. or prepared. she didn't do good with scary. legitimately scary, that is. ]

...since when did Disney grow a pair?

[ entirely too stuck on the scenery she didn't even realize that her clothing had changed... until, of course, a rather chilling breeze swept by. shivering, she stumbled back into somebody else. ] Holy crap! How the hell did this happen! ...and when! [ and, more importantly, what the hell am i supposed to be! ]

[eagleofautozam]

[And Eagle just happened to be the person she bumped into, though it might be difficult to tell for the costume. ]

It must be a very powerful form of magic.

[He had seen the Magic Knights transform into different outfits before. It wasn't so surprising anymore. ]

Do I look frightening enough to fit in here?

[Boo.]

Re: by the fountain.

[gorgeous_charmer]

[Caldina had often referred to herself as a goddess but Grecian wasn't what she had in mind. The robes were so peculiar to her since she was not from Earth. It was also a bit too conservative for her taste, but the gold leafed crown wasn't a bad touch. Maybe it was genuine gold?! Cough. Overhearing Masane, Caldina couldn't help but sidle over and interject]

Don't tell me you didn't have those before you got here?

[She pointed towards Masane's chest and looked on in disbelief. What is Disney.. I don't even know]

The Headless Horseman

[styx_and_stones]

The clatter of hooves, the unmistakable unearthly laugh... you had better run as fast as you can. To the bridge! Cross the bridge it's the only way to escape the wrath of the headless horseman!

While not his usual haunt for some strange reason the Headless Horseman has made his way to Halloween Town. You have better be careful unless you want to lose your head...



[OOC: Posted with Hades account but its not actually a Hades post. I just needed to use an account and chose this one. Feel free to run into him on the outskirts of town and NPC him!]

incoming derp!

[bitchblade]

[ masane had moved aside to catch her breath. this place was something else... and that stupid scare from earlier eagle! hadn't helped. falling into a seat masane let out a sigh. she hoped she could make it through the evening in once piece. ] ...alright, so what should we _{start with.}

[ masane trailed off as that hoarse cackle carried throughout the area... ] ...what in the world is [ and from behind her there's an indignant snort. ] Uhh. [ the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end as that heated puff of air encompasses her and causes her to shiver. ]

[ slowly she turns around only to see the headless horseman and, at first, she can't believe her eyes. she's not scared! ...yet. ] Woah! Sick costume! [ he even got a horse! ]

[the_most_talent]

[Medusa, really?! Okay, so maybe she did have trouble with guys back home but she could still look at them without turning them to stone! At least the costume didn't come with any special powers.... AS FAR AS SHE KNEW.

For the moment, she was trying to keep to herself and plot a way back to the gummi ship. The snakes in her hair were kinda creepy, even to her. ]

Out of all the things I could be.... I wonder why it picked this.

[She leaned to look down an alley way. It appeared open so she snuck out that direction.]

Oh no! [She shrieked when she came face to face with the headless horseman worried for all the world that she might accidentally harm someone... but.... he..... he didn't have a head? So there was no way she could turn him to stone!

That brief realization put her mind at ease.. but only for a second. dfkghdkjfhgkjdfhgkjdhfkhg a headless horseman?!]

[styx_and_stones]

[With a poof of black smoke Hades appears right next to the ole horseman. ]

Horseman, babe, good to see ya again! Oh! Nice cape... is that new?

[He leans in closer to speak into the spirits, um... ear. ]

Look I have one or two things I want to discuss with you when you get done with this whole haunting the Halloween Town gig. Catch you at dawn?

Shall we dance? - Dancing Skeletons on the hill

[aka_catherine]

http://youtu.be/h03QBNVwX8Q

Anyone that lingers close to that odd loopy hill will notice it had some unusual occupants on ol' Halloween. Get too close and they might just insist on your joining them, or they might want you to play a tune for them to dance to....

And those whoever shall be found Without the soul for getting down Must stand and face the hounds of hell And rot inside a corpse's shell

[OOC: Washu is not one of the skeletons XD, she's here for some npc purposes. You may also feel free to encounter the skeletons and control them if you like >3.]

[death_is_a_riot]

[And what should be dancing with the skeletons on this fine day...

...
...
...

He laughs with a strange glee even if...

...
...
...
...

He is an evil teddy bear.]

Trick or Treating

[true_renaissance_man]

[What a strange holiday, in a stranger town...

The bell rings as Leonardo presses the button. A moment later the door creaks open and the ghoul inside is greeted with a rare sight. ]

Ah, trick or treat?

[Leonardo da Vinci... DRAGON WARRIOR!

He holds his mall bag forward and ever so politely says 'Please', in a manner inconsistent of some one who was truly a warrior.]

Di grazia.

[sinfullysublime]

[ as leonardo collects his treats from the ghoul a figure appears by the bone picket fence at the edge of the property. it's sebastian... or at least it was. having stepped out of the gummi ship he'd become mister hyde, the beastly counterpart of doctor jekyll. ]

[ he's not participating in the festivities and is, instead, content to watch so that he can keep an eye on his friend. but he is sporting a rather crooked grin as his claws twitch anxiously at his side. oh, the residents of halloween town ought to beware... because he might just want to have a bit of fun tonight. and somebody must provide the tricks. it's not all about treats, after all. ]

Re: Trick or Treating

[massiekur]

[Okay, so many Massie was a little to hip to "trick-or-treat" but if someone like Leonardo da Vinci could do it, so could she. Besides she needed somebody to see her in this ah-mazing little number complete with riding crop. Ringmaster wouldn't have been her choice but in away it made total sense. She loved being the center of attention, and lately she'd felt like she was surrounded by clowns]

[Massie leaned over to straighten her hose before straightening back up and following after Leo. The cute little hat was ah-dorable and the riding crop reminded her of her horse Brownie. Why hadn't that white stallion of hers managed to arrive here too? She felt a weird bump in the side pocket and drew out a tube of lipgloss]

Looks like I wasn't the only one to get a makeover. [She drew out the wand and applied afresh layer of cotton candy flavored lipgloss to her lips]

Let me handle this next door, Leo~

Pegasus, fashionably late as always

[mister_foppish]

[But that's not for want of trying! He just couldn't seem to find the right er, wear for this sort of thing. Lo, and behold though! The town had quite the surprise in store for him. In fact, he could have sworn he felt a little breezy.]

OH...Dear.

[He stopped dead in front of a mirror. Not that Pegasus wasn't used to unusual things, but this was....a new look, certainly. Red pouty lips? Check. Come-hither eyes? Double check. Glamourous sparkling dress?--oh dear god what…Oh he knows this costume. It's nostalgic! Who'd ever have thought he'd himself be wearing it given Ms. Rabbit was his idea of a perfect cartoon woman! ]

Jessica Rabbit...? Oh really now! Hmm. Well, I suppose it's not all that terrible, is it?

[The slit up the dress wasn't exactly practical but at least with long legs like his he could pull it off. In fact, he's rather taking a moment to smooth it, and walk with that tell-tale sashay down the boulevard of the Halloween Town itself, wondering exactly where everyone was...

With a little sashay here and there he puts his hands on his hips, thinking on it. Hadn't Applejack told him to come this way?

Yes, don't mind this…rather feminine-looking Pegasus in a dress. Though he didn't exactly have Jessica's…er, assets (aka breasts) he still could make a convincing likeness, eh?]

creepers gonna creep.

[sinfullysublime]

[ ...so much for maintaining his perfect aesthetic. upon leaving the gummi ship sebastian had become mister hyde, the beastly counterpart of doctor jekyll. far from pleased with this choice he had sought refuge amongst the shade. he didn't appreciate having his image slandered, even though it was all in fun feh and in the name of this ridiculous human holiday. that, to be honest, somehow made it worse. ]

[ and so instead of participating in the festivities sebastian had taken to shadowing his master about. he did, after all, have to ensure his safety and keep him from succumbing to the dangers of this place. but being that his master was traveling in a group sebastian found he could be rather lax with his duties... and so he'd left his master's side to, instead, have a bit of fun himself. it wasn't long before sebastian caught sight of ms. rabbit... that dress impossibly hard to miss. ] ah, just what do we have here.

[ slithering out from his cover sebastian pressed himself against his backside. ] ...and who might this be? [ purring against the shell of his ear as he leaned in impossibly closer, sebastian moved his tinted claw to his chin. ] Mister Crawford. my my my. I had no idea you could pull of such a toon. [ withdraws his hand as he moves back and steps round to his front. ] ...only so many of us are so versitile. [ a chuckle~ ]

[quiet_devotion]

[It wasn't easy luring Kaname out for social activities but he'd received an invitation he hadn't been able to refuse. The question being, where was Pegasus? Fully aware of Halloween Town's peculiar nature of selecting costumes for visitor's, he wasn't surprised when his clothes changed on arrival but was not in a hurry to see just what he'd become. He was just grateful that it had selected an ensemble that was none too revealing, his tastes tended to lean toward conservative fashions.]

Strange- this isn't the same outfit as before...

[Apparently with it the holiday, the Town was feeling a bit more whimsical with the selection process. Adorned with a fedora and a pinstriped suit, Kaname was dressed As a gangster .

Kaname, folded his arms and watched as others filed off the Gummi ships. As far as he could tell Pegasus hadn't been among that crowd. Perhaps he should start asking around.]

[true_renaissance_man]

[At first the striking young woman was... not noticed. Sorry, Pegasus he might have seen her and thought she was an interesting lady, maybe a good subject for a painting some day, but beyond that there was no real interest. That was until he came closer. It was a small town and in order to get to the Mayor's House he did have to pass her as he walked by.
There was something oddly familiar... ]

Buona sera, signorina.

[(Good Evening, young lady)
No, he couldn't quite place her. Maybe he was imagining it, but the shape of the face was...]

[aka_catherine]

[Washu had decided to take a trip to Halloween Town herself. As a genius/scientist/inventor extraordinaire she needed to scour these other worlds for potential findings, spare parts, and inspiration! cough.. and in this case..... just a break from routine and a run for free candy. inventions could be so expensive sometimes. The Town had decided to clad Miss Washu as a genie. The breeziness of her outfit startled her at first but she got used to it.]

Now let's see here..

[Where would I be able to find the most candy~]

[Washu was too busy looking the other direction when she happened to round a corner she nearly bumped into the.... other woman?]

Ng... sorry about that, I should have been looking where I was going.

[She gazed up at Pegasus.. and knew something was peculiar but she couldn't place her finger on it.]

Have... you been here long? [She certainly didn't recognize him, and sadly.. he could probably fill her genie outfit better than she was currently doing, chest or no chest]

Eerie Looking house on the outskirts of town

[mean_girls_rule]

[Yeah, you know the one. The one house that looks like the perfect haunted house. The place you SHOULD visit on a night like Halloween? Oh, but I wouldn't advise it. This little out of the way place, happens to be Icy's domicile. Go treat-or-treating here and you're bound to get a trick not a treat.]

What is with the influx of losers? [Icy grumbled, stamping her high heel into the wooden structure. Her minions didn't say much.. in fact they said nothing at all as they floated and made loop dee loops in the air. That being said, somehow the witch seemed to understand the three ghosts.]

Isn't that an Earth holiday? [She said Earth like one might say dog poop]

Well if they're looking for fun they've come to the wrong place...

8D! y hello thar.

[sinfullysublime]

[ and a good evening to you too, icy, my dear. sebastian pops up behind her and sets his claws to her shoulders. ] ...ah, but these idiots are potential victims.

[ he leaves her side with a laugh. ] and as for your question it most certainly is. It's Halloween... the holiday this town is named after.

[ cants his head to the side and adjust his fractured glasses. ] I agree. Let's have some fun with them, shall we~? [ sebastian knows that you're not going to play nice and that's just what he wants! ]

WANDERING AROUND LOST AND CONFUSED AND ANNOYED

[maximumbet]

[ There is a totally spooky ghost haunting the street by the gummi ship station. The spooky ghost seems to be SERIOUSLY annoyed too... even though the expression on the sheet obviously can't change. It's just like, this aura of irritation hanging around him.

The truth is, the spooky ghost, er Nero that is, hadn't actually meant to go here. With all the craziness at the station he had boarded the wrong ship by accident. And now he was stuck here, in the middle of some crowd of people wearing costumes. In the middle of a crowd wearing a damn sheet (Which just seemed to cling to him when he attempted to yank it off). ]

Will someone just tell me what the hell is going on here?!

[ Halloween was not something celebrated in Fortuna. ]

[sinfullysublime]

[ ...oh that poor dear. lost and confused and annoyed. unfortunately sebastian's got no sympathy for the likes of you. no. instead he's going to split apart from the group ( and subsequently his better half, the good doctor, ) to pester nero. ]

Is something the matter? [ and he presses into nero's backside to chuckle against his ear. ] It's Halloween. [ draws back and steps round to the front. ] a sort of celebration for the creeps and creatures, the ghosts and ghouls, ... [ a smirk spreads across his face as he cups his chin with his claw. ] Relax, there's no need to scowl! Enjoy yourself, as there's much fun to be had tonight.

TAKE ONE - Cough// Icy's house (not that anyone would know that) //Cough

[mean_girls_rule]

[Whoever lives in this house will not be answering the door if any trick-or-treaters show up but there is a bowl of candy waiting for you. There's a sign affixed to the bowl, that says "Take one". The candy all looked like it's perfectly wrapped but.. looks can be deceiving.

These candies have actually been hexed by a certain witch. Should anyone bite into one.. well, sorry but you will be in excruciating pain for at least fifteen minutes or so. (Least it's a small dose!)]

[bitchblade]

[ masane has never been one to turn down food, least of all a sweet halloween treat. a smile purses her lips as she moves up the path and to the house. oh, well isn't this nice! despite not being home this person's left out a bowl of candy. giggling like the giddiest of school girls masane grabs a small handful. take one! PFT. ]

[ returning to the streets masane starts unwrapping the candies and popping them one by one into her mouth. mm. so good~ at least for now. ]

near the dock.

[applejackd]

[ aj didn't have the easiest of times catching a ride to halloween town on a gummi ship. she must have been there about a half an hour, but, well, ...it was her own fault. this good little apple kept on letting all the children cut in front of her... and gosh! there were just so many. she found that she couldn't say sure to one and nope to another. but, finally, the traffic had died down and she managed to arrive! as aj stepped out of the ship was transformed into the pony of persia. ] ...and just what, woah! [ as she stands on her hind hooves she looks at the blade that's afixed to her arm. ] I don't 'member bringing this, here, thing, but iffin' it's a gift, well, I ain' going to say no. [ since, y'know, it was so damn cool! ]

[ starting down the street aj soon stopped at the sudden realization... just how was she supposed to find her friends. ] I guess this is part o' the fun. ...yeah! Like a game 'er something. [ a modified hide and seek. ] Better get started. [ and off she goes~! ]

[true_renaissance_man]

[Just passing by on the way to the next string of houses, Leonardo happened to spy his four-legged friend, er, trotting away from the gummi ship dock. He couldn't resist teasing her a bit about the worlds outfit choice for her. ]

Ah ha! It seems that you also dressed in costume suitable for our next D&D game! Do you think there will be many orcs to face here?

lol somewhere in the middle of town kinda later in the evening

[silvertonguedgod]

[ Well Loki was initially a little :| upon hopping off the gummi ship only to discover the powers that be had decided that a costume befitting of a Greek god was just right for him. Greek gods... lol. But he didn't let that spoil his fun, oh no.

He was notorious for having the biggest sweet tooth in Asgard, and dammit, he was trick-or-treating. But not by himself, oh no. He'd summoned a few magical familiars to go out and do the work for him while he just relaxed with a few choice sweets. And by the end of the night... why he practically had a mountain of goodies without barely having lifted a finger.

Life was gooood. ]

[bitchblade]

[ and though masane hadn't had the best of nights she still tried to keep her chin up. it hadn't been all bad. she met some new friends and... and... okay, that'd been about it. she chuckled nervously as she padded cautiously down the street. she stops, however, at the sight of a small boy and his plethora of candy. despite her earlier mishap with the candy she still found she had a soft spot for it. or perhaps the better word is sweet tooth. ] ...that's quite a haul you have there.
