Mini Event Mingle: Halloween is Coming to Town

[seasonsmods]

Halloween Is Coming to Town

Halloween has been officially adopted as a holiday in Ellipsa. So the Summer Guild Leader, Dawn, has arranged a three day party to celebrate it. She has gotten a lot of people involved to make it as fun as possible! They are held at all of the guilds (Frostreign, Blossomcrown, Solarpeak, Amberfall).

All of the guilds are now connected through a mirror path. However, the paths have been made longer with the help of Riki's Rewards, so the journey from Guild A to Guild B isn't instant! Instead people will encounter the spooky corridor, full of silly ways to spook someone such as randomly appearing skeletons and ghosts. Usually these are just fake props or people hiding under a sheet - but occasionally there's an actual skeleton around and taking off his head to cite Shakespeare.

The aesthetics of the corridor change depending on what guilds it connects together. All of them are made to be spooky right now, but originally they were made to work as actual methods of traveling between the guilds, so it's not everything there is. The night skies with a creepy red full moons are just temporary!

At the guilds, all of the natives have dressed up in different costumes and are encouraging people to pick their own costume from the costume room setup. Unfortunately, some very mischievous fairies have gotten into the room undetected and may cast a spell that makes someone act like they're the character the costume represents.

There's also an option to get a random costume if someone feels daring.

Otherwise it's a party filled with different kinds of Halloween appropriate food and drinks. Cookies that look like skeletons, pudding made to look like brains, drinks that look like blood and so on. Even the actual food has somehow been made to look creepy.

By the end of the evening, anyone who hasn't screamed because they were scared will be gifted a special potion called shared bravery. It lets the user to share their bravery with others around them for five hours.

Happy Halloween!

[That's the better mode to be in! Rinku shouldn't have to worry about things like her friends not liking her anymore.]

I guess it would depend? I don't want to have to alter all my clothes for wing holes, that'd be a pain.

[roundandaround]

Huh, yeah... and I'd have to shift back to human ears for shows if I ever went without them. I dunno. But whatever happens, I guess I'll find out.

[abnormalizes]

Whatever happens, you'll still be cute, because you're always cute!

[roundandaround]

[Happy Rinku noises!]

You really think so? Thanks, Neechan! You're so cool! What would you wanna be if you got stuck with animal parts? Would you want a butterfly head like you have now?

[abnormalizes]

Oh definitely not, I had to make my eyes and mouth really tiny so that they wouldn't be noticeable and I can't actually eat like this.

[The things she does for accuracy...]

I guess horns?

[roundandaround]

Oh, horns would be cute! Like what kind? The curly kind on the side of your head or the little ones or the long pointy ones or a big one in the middle of your head?

[abnormalizes]

Good question! I definitely want a pair, I think... and I'd want them to be in a position where they wouldn't get in the way of my flower... And they should be big, it's more fun if they're big.

[roundandaround]

That makes sense! Hm... so I guess they'd need to be further up, like near the front of your head?

[abnormalizes]

Yeah, that sounds about right. I'll have to experiment a little and figure out what works best.

[roundandaround]

I bet it'll be fun. I love shapeshifting! It always seems to make people happy, too.

[abnormalizes]

Can confirm, giving your little giraffe nubs scritches is very fun and makes me happy.

[roundandaround]

[giggle] Sometimes I shift them when people look sad, so they'll cheer up.

[abnormalizes]

It'd probably work on me. Not sure if it works on everyone.

[roundandaround]

I guess it wouldn't for some people. Like Inaba-chan, she hates the powers we get here, so probably not her. I don't get that kind of thing.

[abnormalizes]

Really? What's wrong with them?

[???]

[roundandaround]

I don't get it either! She just really likes normal human stuff and nothing else, I dunno. It confuses me. [pout]

[abnormalizes]

I am definitely the wrong person to ask, I don't get what's good about humans at all.

[roundandaround]

I think humans are fine, but they're not the only good people. Everyone is great! I love all of them!

[abnormalizes]

Yeah, of course you'd say that. I do like specific humans. I like you.

[roundandaround]

[happy noises!!] That's because you're great, Neechan. To me, humans have a lot of good points, but so does everybody else, so I don't really see any reason to have a favourite. Maybe it's because I can't just love one person?

[abnormalizes]

Maybe? But I think even people who aren't polysexual are usually pretty chill with other species once they get used to them...

[roundandaround]

So... it's more like humans are scary, huh? Sorry, Neechan.

[abnormalizes]

I'm better than I was before! I have at least several human friends and I don't think about them getting hurt all the time!

[Yeah she still gets scared if she stops and thinks about it too much.]

[roundandaround]

[Mecchan warbles and blows a bubble. Rinku bites her lip.]

I'm really glad you're doing better. But can we help? I think Mecchan's worried because he's always scared too, so he wants to help you be happy instead.

[Little Sobble nod.]

[abnormalizes]

Thank you, Mecchan, you're sweet. [She gives him a pet on the head.] What would help... I guess just warning me before you go off and do really dangerous things, or asking me to come with you?
