🎃 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? ]

That's brilliant! You're brilliant! Don't tell Kitty, but you are definitely the winner of the coveted "Better Half" title for the night!

[winn]

[ he laughs and shakes his head. of course he knows kitty, she talks about him getting around but he's pretty sure she knows everyone on the fleet. ]

The night's still young [ and he'll always argue that she's better. ] and she has a better victory dance.

[arfvader]

I think I'd need to see your victory dance first as a point of reference before I can make any kind of final call!

[And he gestures towards the dance floor with one sweeping motion of his arm.]

[winn]

[ we can pretend he's doing this because of the alcohol but really - he'd do it 10000% sober too.

shrugging, he takes the dance floor and does a ridiculous victory dance. the flash has never looked more dignified! ]

Something like that - [ striking a pose when the song's over. ]

[arfvader]

[Clapping loudly and letting out a holler of support at the end of it like a true bro!]

I can truly say that I have never seen anything like it!

[Interpret that as you will!]

[winn]

[ he takes a bow and laughs ]

I'm one of a kind, bro. At least til you meet Cisco, we're kind of our earth's version of each other. And Hank's us with a dignity add-on.

[ actually, not that unique at all. ]

[arfvader]

I've personally felt that in most situations, dignity is overrated!

[winn]

[ clapping his shoulder, he nods seriously. ]

I totally agree.

[arfvader]

[Ravi laughs and goes to throw his arm around Winn's shoulders with a grin.]

Is this the part where I ask where you've been all my life? Or will Kitty be jealous?

[winn]

Both, I think it's the part where both happen.

[ he wishes he were kidding, but she's been jealous of cisco, so. ]

[arfvader]

[He chuckles a little and strikes a goofy pose.]

It's the Indiana Jones outfit, isn't it? Accentuates just how attractive I really am!

[winn]

A good nerdbro knows how to work a costume to his advantage.

[ nods the guy in the skintight red suit. ]

[arfvader]

Hear, hear! If only the Comic-Con crowds could see us now!

[winn]

We'd have our own cosplay panel.

[arfvader]

You'd lead the panel and I'd be the moderator and we would leave as legends.

[winn]

Before you know it, we'll be turning down offers to make the real deal.

[ ok he already makes the realest real deal and he'll never turn that down, but why involve reality in a fantasy. ]

[arfvader]

And because we're humble and down-to-earth we will clothe all superheroes in need, no matter how obscure!

[winn]

They gotta have a suit. I don't know what makes them think that saving the world in jeans is a good idea but someone's gotta help them.

[arfvader]

And who better than us? The new vanguards of of outfitting superheroes! Edna Mode is basically old news.

[Okay but Ravi is 100% not qualified for any of this.]

[winn]

Edna who?

[ he's partly going along with the joke and partly -- he really doesn't know who that is, the augment is messing with his pop culture referencing, so that names and exact story lines are sometimes fuzzy sometimes all gone leaving nothing but quotes in their wake. ]

[arfvader]

[Ravi would think that was so tragic if he knew.]

Exactly! Glad we're on the same page.

[winn]

[ it is extremely tragic, and a big part of his grudge against the atroma. so many scores to settles!! ]

I got a feeling we're gonna be doing that a lot. [ they live on the same page. ]

[arfvader]

I mean, it's a pretty good place to be, if you ask me.

[winn]

In a total twist in the plot -- I agree.

[arfvader]

I believe we need to christen this moment with a beer!
