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.

She straightens and sighs, feeling the mask above the bridge of her nose then lightly tugging at the corner, frowning to discover she can't take it off. Not only that, the cane she carries with her always reappears in her possession if she were to abandon or break it. Even stranger, this robe draping down her back or her pants pockets seem to mysteriously hold an infinite supply of... roses. Stupid. How were flowers even relevant to all this?

Well, could be worse, she inwardly resigns. ...And just what is this scaly pussycat grinning at?

Astrid smiles as Toothless approaches, taking off the top hat and drops it on the dragon's head between his earfins, leaning closer to adjust it better then steps back, observing him with hands on her trouser clad hips.

Aw, looking rather dignified and adorable there, Toothless! Shame it didn't come with a monocle, heh. "Looks better on you, I'm afraid," she teases gently.

The smile on the young Viking's face was an invitation, as far as Toothless was concerned, and he ambled up to stand within reach, possibly hopeful of scritches. Instead, he received a hat, which he supposed wasn't a terrible alternative, if a little confusing. He flinched a little, ducking under the new (albeit minimal) weight of the thing, and perking his earfins straight up around it. He trilled at her observation and went slightly cross-eyed trying to get a better look. How do I look, Astrid?

Oh Gods, the dragon is posing.
