boys and girls of ev'ry age~

[ With all the hubbub Aligula's been up for few weeks now and especially today, it should really, really not be a surprise that closing in around the evening, flyers start appearing pretty much everywhere, in true Aligula tradition.



There's an extra notice slipped under everyone's doors as well: i made costumes and you're not allowed to tell a ghost story unless you wear one!!!! they'll be in the bar with everything else so don't worry it's all taken care of~~~~ ♥

...yeah.

8pm sees the bar decorated with a lot of toilet paper—mummies were here, obviously—as well as cut-outs of cats, bats, ghosts, owls, and a few freaky looking things that are probably native to Aligula's world. Additionally, the bar counter is laden with dozens of treats, ranging from slightly overdone cookies (sugar, chocolate chip, double chocolate chip, snickerdoodle) roughly shaped like popular Halloween motifs like bats, ghosts, and something attempting to be a pumpkin; thumbprint cookies with some sort of raspberry jelly on them that's a little too sweet, thick, and sticky; to somewhat lopsided chocolate and vanilla cakes, topped with whipped cream frosting and mixed berries. There's hot chocolate and water for people who prefer not to take any of the alcohol that's naturally in the bar, and...

True to her notice, there are costumes laid across several tables and chairs that have been pushed together: bedsheets with fancy embroidery around the hem for some expensive-looking bedsheet ghosts, witch costumes, robes for every monster occasion, cat-ear headbands + tail combination and a marker for whiskers, the same except dog-themed, black capes with red insides for vampires...

If you told her a preference and let her measure you, your costume set aside with a piece of paper with your name attached to it! If not, well. Bedsheet ghosts and capes are one size fit all, though she attempted to eyeball (ha) most everyone, so maybe one of these other ones fit you? Or maybe you don't care and you're not going to tell a ghost story anyway, so whatever.

The ghost stories, by the way, have their own little throne—there's one table pulled away from the others that's covered with a blanket and has a pillow and a few of those cute Cerberus plushes that come out of the machine with it. Take a seat and share something spooky—tis the season in this room, after all. ]

Mhm! I would still say yes!

[ WHY DOES ORIHIME SOUND SO HAPPY ABOUT THIS... ]

Go on...

[ ....RIN..... ]

No... No, I'm not talking about a game show. I'm talking about a game, like...Final Fantasy, or something like that.

[ which hecking jrpgs haven't we had in this game, god ]

[And so we will hand-wave away the basic explanation before he gets to the actual dancing because heck if I know s single thing about dancing.]

[ Seems legit to me, really. For her part: ]

Well, I learn better by doing anyway, so shall we?

That's not so bad, that means you can experience your first Halloween here with us. I could answer any questions you have -- but I warn you, I don't know that much.
chessturner: (8)

[personal profile] chessturner 2017-10-10 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
It wouldn't be so bad, at least. Tohsaka-chan, Marker-san...if mages and vampires are like them, then it's not so bad they exist.

[Or they could be the outliers. Kyrie's thinking it's more likely they're not like the rest]

[personal profile] chessturner 2017-10-10 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
Of course. I think I'm above that kind of petty behavior.

[She definitely isn't]

Oh. I'm sorry for bringing that up.

[Yeah, this is a night to be lighthearted, looks like that's not going to be a good topic of conversation]

Tell me something that won't bring you down.
destage: (GIGGLE ♡ That's hilarious)

[personal profile] destage 2017-10-10 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
Well, in that case...

[Sayaka pauses a bit for dramatic effect, before grinning brightly.]

She takes out a pair of scissors, and cuts your face up to resemble hers!
perpend: (☂ on that famous thoroughfare)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-10-10 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
[He gives a friendly little laugh.]

Never danced much before, I take it?
perpend: (☂ where to go to)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-10-10 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
Let's get started!

[And show her how to tango he will! He's surprisingly good, considering the dumb costume.]
heritrix: (shoulder)

[personal profile] heritrix 2017-10-10 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
I've never heard of that.
matchbreaker: (Lost control of ur life)

[personal profile] matchbreaker 2017-10-10 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
[ Well, she'll be doing her best! She's a little (okay a lot) short so her best is slightly awkward but damn man she's okay with all this touching and dance leading. Like she said, Cabanela is the best looking. ]
destage: (DISTANT ♡ Do you have a dream?)

[personal profile] destage 2017-10-10 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
...That's true, actually. They're such kind people, aren't they? Certainly a little quirky, but at the same time they're just like us. Maybe a little different from their backgrounds, but not to the point that they can't be friendly with us.
heritrix: (hmph!)

[personal profile] heritrix 2017-10-10 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, yeah. Have fun terrorizing the wallpaper.

[See you around, crabgrass.]
heritrix: (sounds like something a bitch would say)

[personal profile] heritrix 2017-10-10 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
Then how did the Avatar get it? [We've not had this conversation.] There has to be more to it than past lives.
heritrix: (kicked puppies)

[personal profile] heritrix 2017-10-10 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
[HUFF.] That story's really based off your memories? That's quite the encounter.

[personal profile] chessturner 2017-10-10 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, I never imagined during the conference I'd have to spend the night solving a riddle and meeting a witch. Life can take quite the unexpected turns.

Hopefully it doesn't! Thaaaat would be a shame!

[Come on, dance with him! He'll happily take those hands of hers and start out with something that isn't horribly frenetically paced.]
heritrix: (miss points-a-lot)

[personal profile] heritrix 2017-10-10 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
I can think of at least two. Maybe more if their instincts aren't sharp? But those are the ones who embarrass less easily, so I bet you could score a dance with them just by asking.
sleepytimegal: i don't want you to leave (i don't want you to go)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-10-10 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
Mmm... What about... Have you tried any of Aligula's sweets? What are your favorites?
sleepytimegal: (what's that mean?)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-10-10 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
...Tetris?
chessturner: 32 (32)

[personal profile] chessturner 2017-10-10 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
The parfaits. They're sweeter than what I usually eat, but they're rather good. That woman knows how to make some good sweets, I find it admirable.

[Too bad she's, you know, the Queen of Monomania instead of a confectioner or something like that]
destage: (UH ♡ I have SEVERAL questions)

[personal profile] destage 2017-10-10 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
...Do I dare ask who you think those two are? I'm not exactly one for dancing with others outside of my work, if I can be honest.

[Because that would look super bad on the article of a tabloid.]
