🎃 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? ]

It's my musical selection. [ well and cisco's too but they have a lot in common, ok! ] Ladies first -

[robitussin]

Fair enough.

[giving him a smirk as she wanders up to the stage and starts singing. she's actually very good. this is what happens when your canon is a broadway musical, etc etc.

after the first two verses, she stops so he can take his turn.]

[winn]

[ and take it he does. he's pretty good himself - untrained, but a lot of natural ability. considering all the drunk karaoke that must've been going on tonight, they make a pretty great combo. ]

[robitussin]

[and then, once they're both done—]

I totally won.

[winn]

Uh, no, I'm the obvious winner here.

[ he doesn't even care, and he thinks she was fantastic but why let go of an opportunity to squabble? ]

[robitussin]

Wanna ask our girlfriends and see what happens?

[winn]

Why not.

[ he's expecting them to take her side, but gotta fake that confidence!! ]

Lead the way.

1/2

[robitussin]

...Wow, wasn't expecting that to work.

[off she goes, though!]

Nightingaaaale. Tell Winn I beat him at karaoke.

[experiencepoints]

Sorry, it wasn't even close. Opal won by a landslide.

[was she even listening? probably but her answer would be the same no matter what.]

[winn]

Wow, not even pretending to have integrity, bold choice. And before you celebrate there - [ giving opal a look ] we said girlfriends, we get to ask Kitty too.

[experiencepoints]

Don't even pretend that if the positions were reversed you wouldn't be doing the exact same thing.

[winn]

We don't have to resort to that, Kitty's a supergenius ballerina badass and I'm a genius and a superior singer.

[ shrug ]

[experiencepoints]

Sorry, but Opal's got amazing talent with music, and a cuter voice, she was better.

[winn]

I'll give you cuter.

[experiencepoints]

I am not sure you could pull off cute half so well. No offense.

[winn]

Actually this is pretty refreshing -

[ he usually gets 'cute', 'adorable', and 'sweet', so absolutely none taken. ]

[experiencepoints]

... If you say so?

[weird but ok]

[robitussin]

That was clearly her objective opinion. I don't know what your complaint is here.

[shrugs]

Sure. Now it's your turn to lead the way.

[winn]

Mm-hmm. You're going down.

[ looking around, kitty is pretty easy to spot in her captain america suit so he leads the way to her. ]

Hey, [ he greets his girlfriend with a kiss ] we need a impartial judge, and her girlfriend was just totally biased, didn't even try to hide it, it was sad - [ giving opal a look, he's totally being purposely obnoxious here, yup. their friendship is magic. ] Who won karaokebowl - Opal or me?

[passingthrough]

[She kisses back and smiles, looking around the surprise group.] Was I supposed to be listening to karaokebowl? [She went right from impartial to uninterested, didn't she?] Kidding. Kidding.

So, this is Opal? Hi. You both did a good job.
