Halloween Party

Who knows why the ship was doing this. Maybe it was some kind of social experiment. Maybe Stacy was feeling festive and somewhere, out there, it was Halloween. Maybe the players just wanted to have Halloween fun. No one would ever know, would they.

In any case, what better place for a Halloween dance than a graveyard? In an area in the center, clear of headstones, there was a dance floor, and there were seats and tables with skeletal frames. Somehow grisly carved torches and jack-o-lanterns of varying sizes and shapes, cast enough eerie light to light up the place, despite the fact it was night. There were places to bob for apples, popcorn balls on strings strung up for people to try to eat for games involving that. The food tables will full of Halloweeny snacks and candy.

Far off, there was a haunted house, decrepit and foreboding. It seemed people could look into it if they dared sent down the dark trail to where it was. [ooc: Haunted house post link forthcoming].

Creepy--but danceable music was playing, from nowhere.

Perhaps most notable was the fact that the moment someone entered the Sensorium, they would find themselves in a costume. Sometimes these costumes would be what the character themselves would choose, but sometimes they'd be dressed as something strange, embarrassing, or just something they wouldn't even recognize. Leaving and coming back wouldn't fix the problem, in most cases. The costumes wouldn't change, and if they did, it wasn't guaranteed that they'd change to something better.

Whatever the case, party hard, Meatship. Somebody's got to teach the Vikings, draconians, aliens, and other sundry people to Thriller dance.

Shaking his head, Kang took the helmet off, "...your choice, or something Stacy forced on you?"

"Well I wasn't expecting it when I came in! Buuuuut, yeah, I guess this is something I would choose."

"I wasn't expecting a costume, either, but it's tolerable," Kang shrugged. "I'm not sure exactly what I'm supposed to be, though."

"You look pretty cool, whatever it is!"

Laughing, Kang thumped one of the bracers, "Makes me wonder what my mate would think of it. And, what she'd be forced into."

"Your mate?"

The way he spoke about her, Jr. could have ventured a guess, but...

"She's not here?"

A small pause. That probably wasn't the best way to word that, considering.

"I mean, didn't wake up yet?"

Kang shook his head, smiling slightly at the flub and the correction, "No, she hasn't woken up yet. Neither have our children."

Both of Jr.'s eyebrows went up at that.

"Woah ... you've got kids, too?"

Kang blinked, and then he began to laugh. "Why is everyone so surprised when they hear that I have children?"

"Well, I can't speak for everyone else. But even though I haven't known ya for too long, I haven't heard about'em until now!"

Jr. stepped back, sitting on one of the headstones. "How old are they?"

"I suppose I just don't seem like the type of person that would," Kang shrugged. He could understand why; six years ago, he never would have believed he'd even get the chance. "They're about a month old."

"Aww so they're really small!"

He smiled. Jr. did like children ... and so far, he had a good enough impression of Kang. One thing Jr. liked more than children were children who had good parents.

"They won't be for long," Kang smiled as well. "A few of the other girls have children several months older than ours, and they're growing fast."
