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.

Toothless trotted along beside Hiccup, not entirely sure of where they were headed, up until aforementioned Viking made a horrified (and so very effeminate) shrieking sound and ducked back out of the area. The dragon grunted, confused, and sat down to look over his shoulder at the teenager, belatedly noticing the boy's change in clothes as he walked back in.

Naturally, he did the only thing a Night Fury could. He stared, and then started making an odd sort of hissing sound that was, most assuredly, a laugh.

He had yet to notice the glittering crescent moon (http://images.absoluteanime.com/sailor_moon/luna.jpg) on his forehead and bright yellow ribbon (http://assets.beebuyer.com/product_images/0285/0472/45b0823e3c68191143b9af3dc7cf630a_big.gif) around his neck.

"Oh don't you start, too."

He smirked.

"Besides, you're not off the hook. Nice ribbon."

The dragon just continued to grin like an idiot at his boy, curling his tail around the teenager and spreading his organic fin in an effort to help Hiccup retain some semblance of dignity. It wasn't helping much, considering a dragon with his tailfins splayed in front of a boy in a skirt was really doing nothing more than drawing attention to aforementioned boy in a skirt, but he was trying.

...and then he noticed the ribbon, and the grinning stopped and he stared in minute horror at his own throat.

...Tailfins forgotten, Toothless promptly started trying to wrestle with his own neck to get the yellow accessory off.

"C'mere. I got it. I got it," Hiccup said, trying to get him to stop squirming long enough that he could get it off.

Even despite your laughing, lizard breath, he won't let you be doomed to looking stupid.

"At least one of us should actually able to look dignified tonight, huh?"

Toothless gave a most pitiful whine and sulked at Hiccup, sitting as still as his deeply-rooted dislike for the ribbon around his neck would allow. Which wasn't very still at all, actually, Hiccup be careful not to fall over on those heels of yours, you'd show the world a lot more of you than most anyone but Astrid wants to see.

He made a disdainful sort of grunted trilling sound, nudging his snout gently against the Viking's hand. Okay, we're sorry for laughing at you, you just look ridiculous in a skirt. Even you have to admit that much.
