driftfleet | 🎃 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? ]

Me too. So, how are people enjoying your outfit? How many times have you been asked out?

A few long looks but I haven't been asked out at all. Huge oversight, really.

The hugest. Anyone catch your eye?

[ pushes some hair behind her ear ]

Oh, I don't know about that...

Noooo? [Raising curious eyebrow.]

Not really.

Well, that's less exciting than I was momentarily hopeful for.

I mean, sure, there are some cute guys around here, but I don't think any of them are interested in me.

Why do you say that?

I don't have the best record on the Fleet, is just what I'm saying. I don't get asked out a lot.

Maybe you intimidate them or they think you don't like them? Ask them out. I think I did that with Winn. Or I made out with him in a closet. Something like that.

The last time I did that, his girlfriend-slash-practically-wife showed up like the next day and now she's dressed as me.

Oh no, Raven is dressed as you? Is she...dressed as you or is she shape shifted into you? ...You're not Raven right now, right?

Just dressed like me. I'm Kara, I promise.

Hank is dressed up as my cousin. So seeing them is kind of very weird.

That's exactly what Raven would say if you were Raven. Except maybe the incest concern.

You don't want to truth-test me, Kitty. I'll tell you things I've overheard.

Do you think of the two of us that I'm the one easily embarrassed? Let's here some of these overheard things.

Well, I can tell them to you for sure. But I don't know that you'll really appreciate it.

Try me. [Smirking.]

Okay, you win. I'm too embarrassed to say anything.

And I really don't try to listen.

I think if you didn't you wouldn't be too embarrassed.

Well, yeah. That's 100% accurate.

At least sometimes we're on the Windrose?

...Unless you can hear us on the Windrose.

No, the vacuum of space pretty much covers that one.

I'm sure that feels better to Winn. Not that the concern has ever actually stopped us. [And it is pretty regular.]
