🎃 HALLOWEEN MINGLE 🎃

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? ]
apurrstate: (Amused | I'm funny though)

Of course, love.

[Anders can't even bother to try and hide his amusement at how Hawke cowers into his side and then tries to play it off as nothing.]

Will we be able to make it through the rest of this, or shall I lead you out with your eyes closed?

[There was plenty that scared Anders, these decorations jumping out at them from the darkness wasn't one of them.]

[He knows they're in no real danger, but he's trying very hard not to let that take the fun out of it. Adalwolfe is more allowing himself to be scared than he is legitimately frightened by hand-made decorations, or so he tells himself. Anders, though, is being a complete stick in the mud.]

Aren't you even a little bit startled?
apurrstate: (Watching)

[He smiles.]

I am. Every time you jump, it startles me.

[Just...not the decorations. Or the atmosphere. Or anything about this really.]
wolfehawke: (pull the other one)

[personal profile] wolfehawke 2016-11-03 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
That's not what I meant and you know it.

[Wolfe huffs at his boyfriend.]
apurrstate: (Happy)

[personal profile] apurrstate 2016-11-06 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Anders smirks and leans in to kiss Hawke's forehead.]

Come on, there's still a bit more of this place and, I'm sure, plenty more scares waiting. Who knows, perhaps one of them will get to me!

[Not likely, but still. In the meantime, he'll be happy enough to 'protect' his poor boyfriend from the mean monsters.]
wolfehawke: (WOAH)

[personal profile] wolfehawke 2016-11-07 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Nope, the wonder is all gone now. You've ruined it. You'll have to make it up to me later.

[He puts on an exaggeratedly disappointed face but in truth, he's much more looking forward to whatever Anders will do to 'make it up to him later' than the rest of the cheesily built animatronics.]

Let's go, I think this is the way ou- AH!

[He jumps back, legitimately startled by the enormous paper-mache spider that drops from the ceiling. Enough that he throws out his arms, one behind him to guard Anders and one in front to cast a winter's grasp that pierces right through the unfortunate spider's cartoonish face.]

...Oops...
apurrstate: (A Rare Thing)

[personal profile] apurrstate 2016-11-15 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm sure I could manage that.

[He could think of a few things now...

Of course, that train of thought jolts out of place as Hawke's surprise and the fact the thing came from the ceiling caused Anders to jump as well. A beat and Hawke's 'Oops' is met with a slowly growing bubble of laughter from Anders.

It was so ridiculous and the thing had actually scared him and Hawke had demolished it all in the name of protecting them. He was both touched and horribly amused.

Anders took Hawke's hand in his and led him along towards where he could now see the exit.]


Come along, my brave hero. No one has to know it was us...
wolfehawke: (Really Tho)

[personal profile] wolfehawke 2016-11-15 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Wolfe scurries after Anders, half ducking as if that will hide him from anyone seeking retribution for the thoroughly vanquished spider. Once they're safely out of the maze and in the regular corridors of the Iskaulit, Hawke can't help but laugh.]

Well! That was bracing.

[He puts his fists on the hips of his dragon onesie. The only way to beat embarrassment is through unfounded confidence!]
apurrstate: (Laugh)

[personal profile] apurrstate 2016-11-17 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[There's nothing but fond amusement on Anders' face.]

Good to know your reflexes are still spot-on.

Shall we try less exciting amusement for the rest of the party?
