🎃 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? ]

Oh, shut up.

[ for a new york socialite, she sometimes slips into some serious valley girl tropes. ]

[winn]

[ he snorts - it's not even her as much as the fact that that's the reaction he gets from most of his friends when the subject of kitty comes up. ]

[ladybro]

You're loved, Schott. Own it.

[ and with that, she clinks her beet against his. to love. ]

[winn]

[ clinking and taking a long drink before putting the beer down. ]

I can ask her if she knows a platinum blond.

[ no that's never going away now. ]

[ladybro]

[ she does. and his name is pietro. and he's tommy's uncle. but that's NEITHER HERE NOR THERE. ]

Quicksilver just showed up. A version of him. He counts. [ and kate has definitely flirted but it's so impossible to imagine actually chasing the quicksilver. for a lot of reasons. the guy was on clint's original avengers team, after all. ]

[winn]

You too? Really, what's with that guy?

[ he never even met him, but the most he's heard about pietro was from kara about a date that now that he thinks about it -- he's not sure ever happened. ]

[ladybro]

[ kate laughs. ] Back home, he's Tommy's -- [ a beat. ] He's the ex-con's uncle. [ so, if you're keeping tabs on this winn, that means that quicksilver is also billy's uncle. ] And Quicksilver was one of the OG Avengers, alongside Clint. They called them Cap's Kooky Quartet. Captain America, Hawkeye, Quicksilver, and the Scarlet Witch.

[winn]

[ keeping tabs...might be beyond him right now. rejoice kate, he may not remember most of these details in the morning. ]

Cap's Kooky Quartet. [ mulling the name over ] Cap's Kooky Quartet [ saying it faster ] Cap's-kooky-quartet [ faster ] Cap's-kooky-quartet Cap-kookie-quarter - Cap's-cookie-cutter.

[ snort. yeah he's definitely not going to remember like half of what she says. ]

[ladybro]

[ she giggles. ]

It was a far different, far lamer time. Clint's costume was hi-larious.

[winn]

That's what happens when you don't have a designated costumer. [ shaking his head. ] Every superhero needs a nerd.

[ladybro]

It's also what happens when you grow up in the circus. No joke.
