🎃 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? ]

[ g a s p, you can practically see the lightbulb turning on over his head. ]

Dude. We should set up a game.

[benames]

[ putting his beer down ]

Fleet-wise Dungeons and Dragons game!

[winn]

Fleet-wide D&D tournament.

[benames]

Ultimate inter-galactic match.

[ this is somehow even more exciting than space Halloween ]

we're gonna have to teach all those poor souls from the other worlds how to play but I mean, how hard can it be? they're all bored anyway.

[winn]

Exactly! I was just talking about it, but dude when I got here and asked people what they did for fun, the answer was laundry. We're not letting that happen again.

[benames]

--- That's just sad.

[ you know, what nope. ]

I'm helping myself to another shot is how sad that just made me. Pour you one?

[winn]

You can just go ahead and pour two, I was reminded of it twice tonight, I'm clearly too sober.

[benames]

That's my man!

[ high five! and he's already working on a small tray of Twizzler shots when he stops and lifts a finger ]

hold on - reminded of in a good way or in a oh-god-I-need-a-drink-way?

[winn]

[ high five!! and then a frown. ]

There's a good way to be reminded of laundry being recommended as a pastime? You may be too drunk, bro -

[benames]

Well, you know, people can do their laundry together or they can...do their laundry together.

[ wiggling eyebrows ]

[winn]

You're playing with fire, Ramon, I got stories and I'm not afraid to use them -

[ he knows how much you don't want to hear about his sex life! ]

[benames]

Abort, abort mission, I take it all back.

[ winn is a bro, any sexy stories about bros are always and forever will be TMI. ]

So I take all is well with space's number 1 couple?

[winn]

She wants me, I don't ask why - it works.

[ shrugging with a smile. space's number 1 couple gets a pretty goofy sort of smile from him, the man is clearly hopeless. ]

How goes your big date?

[benames]

I know why but if we go down that road, the few who don't question us will.

[ definitely having his twizzler shot now. ]

I think it's good! she didn't hex me into a toad yet so - dope.

[ and she's wearing the dress he's made, it's all sort of hot. ]

we're not yet space's #2 couple but I think she's the coolest.

[winn]

[ that makes him laugh and shake his head. if he were a little more confident and a lot less confused, he might have proposed they have some fun messing with people but, alas. ]

Dude, she won't do that, she really likes you and she told me it's the best time she's had since she can't remember when. [ clinking their empty glasses cuz that deserves a cheer. ]
