(Open) All Hallows Party

[Ingrid]

The darkness was as tailored and artificial as the carefully strobed lights. Music played: now a gothic dirge; before something heavier; and after there would be something lighter but no lose alternative, no less weighted for the occasion. This was All Hallows Eve. This was Walpurgis night. This was halloween. And the ghouls had come out to play.

They were on the dance floor, in themed attire.

Ingrid had her back to them. Her face was to the bar while a voluptuous woman with a richly decorated sleeve was working alcoholic magic for her. For this celebration, the Darkling had forsaken her usual gothic attire; instead she wore a crisp black suit with a cream shirt and a black tie (which had cute little skulls on it). A broach in pewter and fake stones was fixed to her lapel. She had spats for her shoes.

It was Halloween and Ingrid was out to enjoy herself, to let slip of her cares for a few hours.

Who knew who she would meet?

This scene is keyed for Halloween. Its an open scene. Have fun and remember - no reveals!

[Seraphina]

Halloween! One of her favorite nights! So much so that she usually spent most of the year hunting down the perfect costume.

And while last years was fun and she still had it, she wanted something different this year.

Her inspiration this time? A hat. A simple top hat she spotted at a second-hand store. Once she tried the hat on, the rest of the costume quickly came to mind. Some parts were easy to get, some a little more difficult, but in the end, it was perfect!

Edna’s didn’t feel like the right place to go this year. Without the Elemental, it felt empty. So she decided to try hitting a club, a chance for her costume, and her, to be seen.

So Reverence it was! Having only been once, it seemed fun and interesting.

In walks a Steampunk version of the Nix. The skirt billowed out behind her as she walked, showing a bright gold color under the skirt.

Eyes soon spot Ingrid! A familiar face! Not that she minded mingling with those she didn’t know, but friends were always more welcome.

Long legs carried her over, a smirk plastered to her face,

“Hi!” says the Treasured, “I love the outfit! And those skulls on the tie?!” she leans forward slightly, not invading too much of the Darklings space, “are adorable!” she gushed, “I love it!” and she meant it, Ingrid looked quite charming.

[Ingrid]

"Sera! Look at you!" Ingrid purred loudly. Her eyes widened as she took in the other Changeling's attire. "Someone went all out for magnificence. I guess that someone was you? Fancy a drink?"

Ingrid was already gesturing to the bar keep. "Have what I'm having. This mistress of magic here crafts each cocktail in the moment. They are all unique. Yours will be different to mine. I swear it!"

She shuffled over to give Sera some space and took the moment to scan the dance floor. The crowd was parting and she saw A Scream Killer busting moves.

"Say..."

Cricket made his appearance, forcing Ingrid to abruptly chance position and what she was about to say.

"Ha! Yeah! Great ain't they!" Not her best introduction but it stopped her from pausing with her mouth hanging open.

To Seraphina: "He a friend of yours? Of course he is! He should be! He'll be wanting a magical cocktail as well I wager."

[Seraphina]

It didn’t seem to take long for someone to approach them. Though she wasn’t expecting a Care Bear, but it was cute.

Smiling, “Uh, just something I kind of threw together based off the hat.” Comes the angelic voice as a hand raises up and taps the hat. “Everything else just fell into place and was just too awesome to not wear.” It was true enough. “But your costume is adorable!” she didn’t know they made onesies like those, maybe she’d have to get one.

The Scream guy on the dance floor seemed to be in a world of his own. Owning the dance floor in his own way, and she had to give him credit for that. Dancing still made her uncomfortable.

Grinning to Ingrid, “Thank you! I love dressing up! Halloween should be a weekend thing every weekend.” A nod. Yup. She’d be all over that.

Then drinks were being offered and she laughed as she gently shook her head, “As tempting as that is, and I’m sure the drink is amazing, I’ll just stick with water.” Maybe Ingrid didn’t know about Sera not drinking. Which was ok, she didn’t go around waving a flag about it.

“They are great shoes.” Another nod.

A sly smile to Ingrid, “Not yet, but we should work on that!” a musical laugh, “And yes, he defiantly should be!” enjoying the banter, sapphires twinkling with delight. "Plus, I have to know where he found the onesie! It's too cute!" she gushed.

[Kaze]

The athletic looking man with vaguely Asian mixed, handsome features comes in wearing a white karategi, the traditional uniform for karate practice and and competition. He has a black belt tied around his waist in an intricate knot. He has a headband with a symbolized flower outlined in black on white. On the back of his gi is a symbol consisting of a bonsai tree in the foreground with a round, red solid circle in the background, a full, rising sun.

He looks around tentatively, then smiles and moves out to the dance floor without going to the bar, moving with the easy grace of an athlete as he walks, and then ironic stiffness and discomfort as he dances, alone and self consciously!

[Kaze]

Kaze seems to be scanning around for someone, anyone he knows as he lamely attempts to dance. Finally he spots someone, he thinks is someone he knows, and stops dancing to head over to them.

"Hey! Uh, 'Jimmy' from the, condo association meeting, right?" Kaze greets Cricket! "Hey, I didn't get a chance then, but you mentioned some, health food recipes; I'm really wanting to get into that, too. I have a couple, um, for you know, helping your body do like, self healing, and for controlling, heart rate and breathing. I'd love to swap sometime, you know, when I've worked up to the more advanced, uh food prep." he pauses, "You might not remember, I'm 'Case'." he says.

[Circe]

A queen entered, donned in black with a pink crown betwixt her horns. Circe's royal outfit was a brand new one only recently conceived by the Internet. Though she liked the horns the silly pink crown with the smiley face wasn't her style. The choker and arm bands were fun.

The dusky skinned blonde however adored her new smile from the props in her mouth giving quite the shark grin. The queen strutted in and made her presence known by being quite loud, "Oh ho ho ho, it seems I am the only one ta claim bein' Nintendo's newest royalty tonight! How wondrous," Circe didn't bother to hide her glee. A act which might help those familiar with her to recognize the woman. That laugh could be memorable.

Circe considered heading towards those gathered by the booze dispenser, yet a whim had her make a beeline line towards Ghost Face, "A ghost is here too, hopefully yer not as shy as a Boo, Oh ho ho ho ho!"
