Halloween Mingle!

Who: Everyone
Broadcast: N/A
Action: Mingle Post for the Halloween and Drift period!
When: 10/28-11/11

It's time for a spooky candy-filled drift, Flooters! And because no Halloween is complete without a few tricks...a mini player plot! If you'd rather just have a normal mingle, feel free to ignore it and tag about as normal!

===
On the Iskaulit for interested parties there are a few bowls of candy gathered from all the ships. It's a random assortment! The bowls are left in high traffic areas and they can be moved about, so feel free to say your character ran into the bowl wherever you like! Even in the bathroom? Who knows! Fancy hotels do it, so why not the Fleet.

Upon consuming candy taken from the bowl however, the character will have their hair or skin temporarily change color to something not their natural shade. This is a harmless illusion spell and can last anywhere from 1 to 8 hours - player's choice! What colors? Also player's choice! Want to go mauve for the day? Sure! Blue and green? Go for it! Rainbow glitter? Why not?

This is a completely harmless spell though, so while it looks like they've changed colors, it is not a real physical change. After a few hours, the effects wear off and everything is back to normal. Happy Halloween♥

[Eugene had been on the periphery of the sugar buzz, carefully inching around hall-scrubbings-in-progress and thinking better of poking his nose into the lab for something to take the edge off the odd ache or twinge. So when he finds Escha on the couch in the lounge, it's not too surprising, and he sighs to himself before making the trip back down the hall for some water and a blanket. Once she's settled in and hopefully in a position to sleep it off, he kicks back in one of the armchairs, props his foot up on the coffee table, and tucks back into the latest novel he picked up on-planet before they drifted off.]

[ She most definitely sleeps it off!! A quick little power nap never hurt anyone, right? Especially someone as hyped up on sugar as she was...

It's almost an hour before she wakes up, brushing her flyaway hair out of her face as she sits up and blinks at the world. ... Er lounge. She feels much better, that's for sure. She's surprised to see Eugene, though! Did he stay here the whole time?! jfdkls Regardless, she smiles. ]


Is it a good book?

[Eugene glances up when Escha stirs, waiting for some sign of discomfort that she's going to be sick and breathing a silent sigh of relief when she's, if anything, as bright eyed as ever.]

It's a fun book. [Some sort of police thriller, as far as he can tell. He's not sure if it's good, but it's a page-turner, at least. Leaning down to the side of his chair, he picks up the water and offers it over to her.] Are you feeling okay?

That's good! I need to make some time to read more books... [ Fiction, she means. She almost always has her nose stuck in a science or reference book otherwise. Oh well... ]

I'm okay! Aheh, I really overdid it, didn't I? [ Her smile turns a little sheepish. ] Sorry...

Hey, no harm, no foul. My main worry was that you were going to get sick everywhere, and it doesn't look like that happened. [There's a hint of teasing in his voice, but it's understated. Gentle, even, much as Eugene doesn't usually bother with that kind of thing.]

Ah, yes, that would have been... bad. But! Luckily I know how to hold my sugar.

[ ... Please no one tell her that sugary alcoholic drinks exist. ]

And, thank you. You totally didn't have to sit there while I slept... I'll make it up to you somehow.
