🎃 HALLOWEEN MINGLE 🎃
Who: everyone ( yes, you too!)
Broadcast: N/A
Action: aboard the Iskaulit!
When: current
[ on the night of the 28th, the lecture hall will open its gates though it'll look remarkably different. Winn and Cisco would have decorated the corridors leading to it with Jack-o'-lanterns made from the pumpkins gathered at the little patch on the planet. The hall itself will be similarly decorated, along with other traditional scary Halloween decorations made from paper and fabric ( don't ruin the little paper spiders, they took hours to make! ). There will be music from various times of Earth-1 and Earth-3, so don't be surprised to find Lady Gaga playing alongside the Spice Girls! Feel free to make requests or otherwise, just show your skills on the dance floor!
There will be a bar run by Nami offering free sodas, though you'll have to pay for your own alcohol ( remember, don't drink and fly! ). Alongside the bar, characters will find a few tables offering candy from Earth-1 won by Cisco at the game room with a little sign reading TAKE ONE, LEAVE SOME FOR OTHERS and quite a lot of space chips and protein dips as well as various candy from all over the different planets ( cleverly hoarded by Winn! ) and a large selection of pumpkin pies and pumpkin treats. Characters will also find a line leading to Cisco's trusty ice cream machine, though it'll only offer peanut butter flavored sorbet.
At the corner of the hall there will be a karaoke machine with a little sign-up sheet. Characters could sign up solo or in groups and list the song they'd like to sing. Keep in mind though, the entire hall will be able to hear your rendition of Sexy and I Know it!
Adventure-seeking characters will be able to follow signs reading HAUNTED HOUSE and reach a large hall that was turned into a maze by large cardboard blocks painted black or covered by dark fabrics. Making it out of the maze won't be too hard and the maze itself won't be too frightening but will be mildly startling. It'll include some nifty engineered animatronics of witches, scarecrows, scary clowns and skeletons as well as holograms of ghosts! The song featured in the invitation will also be heard here, on repeat. It's a good break from the dancing and for some private conversations and moments.
Remember, costume are mandatory! you don't want to be caught by tonight's pumpkin kings, do you? ]
no subject
[ see, he's in a good enough mood to volunteer some details. as for the dancing, well. ]
Yeah - maybe not to this.
[ he has no idea what song it is, but he does know it's by some lady named Beyonce. ]
Some of it is a bit - too modern.
[ for him, at least. he assumes it's the same for Peggy. ]
no subject
[Her tone is unfailingly light as she says that.]
Or you could make someone find you something you're a little more ready or.
no subject
[ he glances at her ( strictly her face! ) with a little smile. ]
How come you're not out there dancing?
no subject
[She was ready with that answer, too.]
But mostly, no one's asked.
no subject
[ no. nope. he looks away the second she mentions the the tape, who wears a gown only held by tape anyway? ]
you know, tape is usually meant for paper, not fabric.
[ he seems very determined to look at the dance floor and there is absolutely color rising to his cheeks. ]
Alright. Once it slows - Nat, will you give me the honor?
[ he nudges his elbow against her arm ]
and you know, you can always have my jacket.
[ just in case. he's honestly anxious for the dress now. ]
no subject
[There's something gratifying about his blush, but she doesn't rub it in too much. The fact her comfort zones are much wider than his isn't news. Instead, she nudges back.]
After your girl gets a turn, I'll be happy to dance with you. If we keep it slower, I think the dress might make it.
no subject
[ why are they having this conversation for the love of. ]
Where did you get it from, anyway?
[ doesn't seem like her style, after all ]
Anything I should know about?
no subject
[The fact it isn't her normal style is part of the point. It's a break—a chance to be someone else.]
What are you worried about?
[Other than the obvious.]
no subject
[ it's mostly a joke but his eyes are funnily trained on the heads of the people in front of them as they dance. ]
no subject
You can look, you know.
[Then, because it's Steve and she can say something like this to Steve...]
You know... sometimes I've wondered why I never tried to catch you myself. Then I remember—I would have been too much for you.
[And now he's with Peggy, and she couldn't be happier for both of them. They should soak this all up while it lasts.]
no subject
[ she's not exactly traditionally ladylike whatsoever but she's still a lady, after all. he does look at her, however, when she says that, evidently amused. ]
You thought about it? Always figured you saw me as a - I don't know.
[ he smiles ]
Come on, you'd toss me out your door if i'd have dared bringing you flowers. Maybe I would have been too much for you.
no subject
I'm not blind, Steve. And we make a good team. Of course, I thought about it.
[Her tone is light, neither regretful nor wistful. Just a matter of fact.]
But you're flowers and holding hands, and that is not my speed.
no subject
[ he makes a face ]
Maybe not me - but you can't be entirely opposed to flowers.
no subject
no subject
[ nat, sometimes, he just can't understand you. ]
You know, back in my day, you showed up without flowers, you could get tossed out the door as easy as that.
[ smiling. he's still not entirely familiar with the modern way of flirting, ok. ]
no subject
[Flirting isn't all that complicated, Rogers.]
I'd be more inclined to go out with someone if they gave me something I actually did want.
no subject
[ and Natasha is perhaps one of his closest friends but she, even more than him, has a lot she tends to keep to herself. Steve has learned a lot about her during their friendship but he is very well aware that he's not close to knowing everything, nor does he want to be, if the price for that is her comfort. ]
no subject
[She makes it a joke, covering the truth in her statement.]
no subject
[ a bit of a line face ]
Nat, anyone would be lucky to get to know you, romantically or otherwise.
no subject
[She smiles at the compliment, but it's not a happy or convinced smile. Natasha doesn't have any intention of arguing with him about this though. She knows who she is; she's about the only person who does.
It would be narcissistic and awkward to make Steve defend it to herself.
When the song changes, she says:]
You know... I think it's time to cash in on that dance.
no subject
[ he might be a bit alarmed. the pace is quicker than what he's used to ]
Well - you're going to have to teach me.
no subject
You know I have your back.
no subject
[ and yet, he is almost nervous when they step onto the dance floor. ]
Are there even steps to learn these days?
no subject
[Is she joking? She might not be joking.]
But it might be easier the other way.
no subject
[ tango, good grief. ]
Let's stick with the modern stuff.
[ how quickly he concedes. ]
