🎃 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? ]

[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.

[winn]

I'm hurt that you even have to ask.

[takingkarabusiness]

Right, right. My bad. Forget I asked.

[winn]

Come on, let's get you some candy before they run out - [ taking her hand ]

[takingkarabusiness]

[ takes his hand back ]

I saw Kitty. She looks great. Went a different direction, huh?

[winn]

Why different? She's a superhero, like the rest of us -

[ do you mean the pants thing? he joked about making her slutty captain america when she was giving him a hard time, but he couldn't do that to steve. ]

[takingkarabusiness]

I mean the pants thing.

[winn]

Black Canary isn't here - Captain America is. And he's huge.

[ he's more afraid of disappointing him than getting beaten up by him, though. and he's kitty's hero, it's like he wouldn't want to be wearing a sexy superman outfit in front of superman - you don't mess with a person's icons. ]

[takingkarabusiness]

So it's more of a tribute. That's sweet.

[winn]

All of these are. [ he shrugs ] You guys are awesome - being your friend makes me more of a fan, not less.

[takingkarabusiness]

You're very sweet.

[winn]

Yeah, but that's beside the point. You and Superman changed my life, and lot of people out there have the same feelings for the Flash, the Green Arrow - [ pointing at her ] the Black Canary, everyone. Most people don't get to be best friends with their heroes and say thank you in person, so this is how we do it.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ she's going to hug him!! that's just too sweet ]

Well, you're my best friend too, Winn.

[winn]

[ he's gonna hug back tight. he's been putting a lot of time into this party, and the sleep deprivation, the alcohol, the fact that cisco dressed him as his best friend, and his always present massive piles of feelings for kara all come together to make him really emotional right now, sorry. ]

I'll always be grateful for that. [ supergirl is awesome, but he already had a hero when she came around. kara. (and yeah, superman).

pulling back and smiling, if she looks closely she can see his eyes glistening. really emotional ok ;; ] You wanted sugar, not cheese - right, let's see what we have left -

[takingkarabusiness]

I don't know, this is pretty saccharine.

Are you crying?

[winn]

No! [ yes. ]
