Halloween 2016

[Star]

Two t-shirts? Check. Stringy dirty blond hair? Usually. A little pink and purple eye-shadow with eyeliner? Check. Ice-blue contacts? Check.

Clan Ma-Ma Techie ready to tech.

Or strung out Shaggy. Which the stray dog that had decided his left leg was sexually appealing while he was parking his bike didn't do anything to discourage the notion of. Pretty sure at least two people in line had Snapchatted and Instagrammed the hell out of Scrappy Doo getting his freak on. That dark spot on the pants leg? Totally better be blowback from riding the bike. Thank gawwwwwd he hadn't worn long shorts like the movie.

Wut, wut.

Goth music. It's a little slower but still has that heavy ntz ntz that some people loved so much. And, really, it's just a flavor of EDM. Like this vanilla vodka drink is totally a flavor.

Also, these costumes. These people. Hooooooly.

"Hey!"

He yelled at a bloody face.

"Hey!"

He totally pushed his way through skirted the edges of the crowd, waved to Campanella and Faye on the way, until uniting with Ma-Ma.

"That came out great! Say the line! 'Toss them over the balcony!'"

Hey, look. There's an actual balcony.

[Tuesday]

The Plan had been to veg out wearing fuzzy pjs, watching bad slasher flicks and noming and probably most likely definitely throwing popcorn.

By now Tuesday should have known what happened to Plans.

Because that's what totally happened.

She doesn't really remember who's idea it was, but. No it was Fisher's. The mustelid version of the puppy-dog look was devastating. She should have known that grabbing that silver sharpie would have come to bite her in the ass.

Her nose was itchy. Like sooooo itchy. But if she itched it would ruin the black lines she'd applied to get Maya's look perfict. Hey. If she was going to let the mustelid draw on her, it was going to be for a good reason.

Like the lulz, or for a kick ass costume.

And just who was more kick ass then one of the sexy space sirens from Borderlands?

Maybe someone from Kickass....

Whatever!

Tuesday couldn't help but shoot a grin at Fisher , the music pumping, vibrations flowing through her.

Maybe this would be better then vegging out in fuzzy jammies.

[Fisher]

Fisher was practically bouncing with excitement the moment Tuesday said yes. She was super excited to have a friend to hang with and the act of doing the make up and squiggles was fun. She hadn't even left the house before she was having a blast.

Going with Lilith was a pretty good pick as far as video game characters went, at least Fisher's average boobage was acceptable for the role. Fisher actually considered sculpting herself a bit, features and stuff to fit the role better, but since it wasn't a real person it was more complicated than she wanted it to be so she dumped the idea.

It was too bad they didn't have a Roland or a Handsome Jack, that could have been fun, but going as a matching set was interesting enough. Fisher was interested to see just now Star and Avis turned out with their costumes.

When they finally got into the club Fisher returned Tuesdays grin with an excited one of her own.

With the blood pumping, the music playing, and the people groovin' looked around and gave people she knew, the mages mainly, waves of greeting.

"Oh hey look! All kinds of people we know came out today," she said eyeing the large number of mages present. "Shall we get totally toasted and make absolute fools of ourselves, go around and say hi to people first, or both maybe?" She finished off with a mischievous grin.

She could checkout future prospects for the night a little later.

[Mhairi Ankaa]

A split second of panic shot through the wisp before Asa turned.

What if he didn't want to talk to her?

What if he didn't want to bring up what happened at the Asylum outside the Asylum?

...Would he pretend he didn't know her?

Her panic was for naught, a moment passed his eyes holding her's before they shifted, trailing like liquid fire over her skin. His hungry gaze did nothing to dismiss the warmth of her flushed skin.

His amused tone was met with a slightly breathy laugh. "Sacramento has-ah a funny way of-ah putting everything in-ah-into perspective."

As he leans closer, his scent has the wisp leaning closer as memories swirl up around her. Mhairi bites her lip, because this wasn't the time or the place, but then - his drawling voice is asking it's whispered question.

"Yes."

Her response is breathless and immediate. A swirling mixture of desire and need.

[Aurora]

An eyebrow was raised in curiosity, what business could he have here? Seems there was more to the Moros then he’s let on, but she wasn’t one to push and pry. “Ah, secret spy business I take it.” She says in a mysterious tone, “Your secret is safe with me.” She jokes.

“Oh yeah! Halloween is the best time to see how creative people can get! Last year I was Harley Quinn, and as much as I love the costume, I figured there’d be a ton of her out tonight. So I kinda toned down my usual Halloween look, you know, left the sclera’s in their case and went more demure.” She then holds her hands out and does a mini curtsy.

Eyes shift to look up, a grin appearing, “Oh, I fully intend to be up there. But I wasn’t sure if there was a bar up there and I can’t stat my night without a yummy drink.” The green drink was held up and a sip was taken. Cause one doesn’t down Absinthe. “And being up there makes it hard to mix and mingle with those who can’t be up there, which really sucks.”

She was a little surprised to see Star enter, and the wave was returned. How many more of the VT would show up? And before she knew it, it seemed like the whole group was there, though it was always easy to overlook Avis. But damn, that was some awesome makeup!

[Asa]

"It's the sun."

Asa didn't lean back; instead, his dark eyes fixed on Mhairi's own.

"Like the California Gold Rush. Fever hot, beating down on you until it's hard to think." His drawl was thick and earthy, like barbecue sauce being poured over and sticking to tender meat. "Gets in your head until that warm ache is part of you and your own sweat feels like a second skin."

He touched her shoulder with the ice-cube chilled glass he'd emptied.

"Until you'd do just about anything to put it out."

The easy smile held a hint of a promise, a temptation, made even more true from his own ache to see a blue sky and golden light again.

"You're going to buy me a drink." He withdrew and set his empty glass on the counter. "Because even though you'd like me to touch you, anticipation and uncertainty is half the fun. Then we'll go up to the gallery and you'll tell me how you feel about... Sacramento."

OOC

Asa has all the prerequisites to get them upstairs.

[Campanella]

Campanella's mouth warped into a wry grin.

"Demure indeed. I think you will shine with... our betters... in the gallery. I would have thought there would be a bar or something up there. But you are correct, you can't mingle. And whats the point if you can't mingle?"

He tore his eyes from Faye and sought out his associates who had so deftly attached themselves to someone else's train: that group had claimed one corner on the lower floor and were busy establishing a court of their own.

He saw other Awakened arrive also, an eyebrow raised at their mixed and eclectic outfits.

"Well. It appears people are arriving in force now."

He imbibed from his glass deeply.

Turning to Faye with an appraising and appreciative eye, he asked plainly:

"Shall we take a turn ourselves before you head off on your grand adventure up above?"

[Yog-Sothoth]

She may not know many, if any, people in the city but a party was an excellent chance to get out and meet some new people. Besides, she could always leave early if the scene was dead. So the red haired woman made her preparations to go out and decided to harden her mask for the evening to better fit her costume.

The costume she chose wasn't as revealing as some of the ones she had considered, but in the end she didn't wanna be seen as that one girl trying too hard only to come across as pathetic. With the mainstream appeal of the franchise, and the recent hype with the new movies, she dug into the Star Wars universe and pulled out a Mara Jade Skywalker for the evening, she even had the hair for it, score!

Once she made it in she decided to head for the bar and get a drink to nurse as she chose some people to approach. As she waited for her drink she noticed that people were pretty much paired up so she'd have to test the waters and excuse herself politely if she ended up a third wheel. Finally armed with her mojito, she scanned the crowd.

There was the skimpy clothed woman and the handsome man in the suit, but they gave off that rubbing up against each other vibe so she decided to give them space, and the two girls looked kind of like close friends, so that only left a choice of, were they couples? Hm...perhaps she came out too early.

Gwendolyn took a sip of her drink considering her options, enjoying the music while she waited.

[Avis]

"Hey!"

He totally pushed his way through skirted the edges of the crowd, waved to Campanella and Faye on the way, until uniting with Ma-Ma.

"That came out great! Say the line! 'Toss them over the balcony!'"

Hey, look. There's an actual balcony.

"Hey," Avis replied back, grinning her bloody grin before she reached out and pulled Star towards her and tried to trap him in a kiss. It would be sweet. The corn syrup kind of guaranteed that. And she kind of liked the idea of marking him with the food coloring.

"And I think we'll need to be on the balcony for me to be able to say that," she added, unknowingly echoing his thoughts.

"Do you know of a way to get up there, or are we going to slum it down here with the rest of the monsters? I guess that wouldn't be so bad. I could use a drink."
