"Mr. Moon. It is not my Christian name, but I am sure a fellow child of Autumn understands the reasons why one must keep such things close to one's chest." He nods at the notion of appropriate dress. "Indeed. I expected that I would make your acquaintance at the Haunted House, and thus I dressed appropriately for introducing myself to the Dread Lord." Mr. Moon smoothly pivots a shoulder, swinging the covered plate and it's jiggly shield away and to the left without even wobbling the plate as he slowly bows forward and scrapes his right foot in a courtly formal bow, before righting himself and returning the dessert to it's place as a makeshift wall between him and the others.
He does it slowly, so no one thinks he's about to explode into violence.
"Thankfully the host for this event left an invitation out for all and sundry to accept at their leisure." Mr. Moon says, as he gets a feel for the small group. "My dessert was merely meant as repayment for that courtesy, not as a Gift to ensnare our host. Pray, forgive my misstep. No offense was meant."
Mr. Moon is attempting to get a read on the three of you with Wits + Empathy rolls (Rigid Masks taken into account) to get a better idea of your motives in regards to him (are you paranoid? looking to take advantage of him? looking for an excuse to take him into the basement and torture him for shits and giggles?). You can resist with Composure + Subterfuge!
