🎃 HALLOWEEN MINGLE 🎃

[benames]

You are cordially invited to Cisco and Winn's Not-Too-Terrifying Halloween Costume Party!

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? ]

Parent Trap style?

We could always do Eye of the Tiger.

[winn]

I guess that's more dignified for our outfits.

[ and also a fun song, so he'll go for it. signing them up! ]

Well, looks like we got a good half hour at least til we're up - wanna dance?

[takingkarabusiness]

Sure, if you want to.

Are we gonna do the Monster Mash? Do you have that on the playlist? It's a halloween requirement, you know.

[winn]

Who do you think you're talking to here?

[ kara please, he and cisco got all the classics down! taking a few steps away from the karaoke machine to the dance floor, he's gonna start dancing with gusto. ]

[takingkarabusiness]

Excuse me, Mr. Halloween.

[winn]

Pumpkin King, the title is Pumpkin King.

[ he and cisco got a little too into it. ]

[takingkarabusiness]

Ooh! Did you get any candy corn, Pumpkin King?

[ the prospect of sugar is always exciting ]

[winn]

Cisco won some from the game room - I'm not sure if they still survive - [ the snack table is pretty ravaged. ]

[takingkarabusiness]

Oh, I'll get my hands on some.

Are you having fun?

[winn]

Better do it fast, all I'm saying.

[ they don't have a lot of candy. ]

How can I not? Wait - are you not having fun? Do you think we should be changing something? [ he never threw a party of this scale before! pinkie did most of the work on kitty's party ;; ]

[takingkarabusiness]

Relax. I'm having fun! Well, these shorts are a little short but I'm not complaining. You did a great job with all the costumes and this party. It's great! People really seem to be having fun.

[winn]

Longer than Jim's -

[ snickering. ok that's inaccurate but still, he's having a great time with all of this. ]

Fallback career number 28 - party planner.

[takingkarabusiness]

That was intentional, right? You didn't just run out of time?

[winn]

Payback's a bitch. In short-sorts.

[ nodding. jim embarrassed him half to death by talking about his sex life when kitty was a man. a debt was owed! ]

[takingkarabusiness]

Payback for what?

[winn]

He knows what he did.

[ he does a lot of things. yeah, all of them are for winn's own good, but this is a very mild sort of payback to someone who can definitely handle it, so he's not overthinking it. ]

Ohh, I should've said 'revenge is a dish best served cold legged' or something.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ she can't even acknowledge that one, winn ]

You're not getting back at me for something, are you?

[winn]

Hey - that's some of my best work right there, have you looked at yourself? You look amazing -

[ almost awkwardly amazing. if he didn't have kitty he'd be dying a little inside amazing. ]

[takingkarabusiness]

You did a great job! I'm just saying... he doesn't have pants, I don't have pants...

[winn]

Difference - you look beautiful, you're dressed as a great hero. He looks hilarious - he's dressed as a parody.

[takingkarabusiness]

Well, thank you. And thanks for all the work you put into all of this. I think it's a hit!

[winn]

You're very welcome.

[ his smile turns a little embarrassed but excited. ] Yeah, we did pretty good, didn't we? Take that, all the parties I was never invited to!

[takingkarabusiness]

They were probably all boring, anyway.

[winn]

Of course they were, they didn't have me.

[takingkarabusiness]

PS tell me this mix has Thriller.
