Compliments of

meredevachon at GYO, a Hallow-meme!

Halloween is almost here, so how about a little Halloween make-believe? Tag in with your characters, present and potential, and tell us as much or as little as you'd like about their Halloween-feels. And if you don't have spoons, interest, or time for this part, skip to the interactive fun bit at the end!

Need ideas?
- Assuming you could get whatever costume you want, what do you dress up as? (include a pic if you'd like) Or what would you not be caught dead in?

- How would you like to spend your night? In the Inn, in Halloween Town, at home, your call! (Trick-or-treating, at a party, pulling pranks, giving out candy, hunting, light off and ignoring the doorbell, etc.)

- What are your favorite and/or least favorite treats to receive trick-or-treating?

- Do they have a holiday this time of year where you're from? How do they celebrate?

- What are your favorite and/or least favorite Halloween memories?

~*~*~*~

Because interactive memes can be more fun: virtual trick-or-treating. Reply "trick or treat" to people's top levels to find out what kind of treat (or trick!) they would give you. (treats don't have to be candy, but if they get obviously NSFW, put a warning in the subject line)

Has no idea what Halloween is and if the connection to the dead and spirits were explained to him, he'd run screaming from all of you batshit idiots trying to summon his wife and Vax's patron.

If he got the Hallmark version, he'd think the costumes were nutty but whatever floats your boat. Give him a beer and he'll be over there. And he certainly won't be enjoying whatever scandalous nonsense the women get up to.

Vex, Pike, and a couple of other people could probably talk him into wearing a shirtless Roman legion outfit or sexy priest vestments. Probably.

Trick or treat, Cashew! Put this on. *hands him a legionnaire costume*

Does it look like this or this or this?

*looks at the pieces of leather and fabric she just handed him* Over my clothes?

Uh. Treat if I have to take one.

(She was tempted by the second because it's shiny, but went with the third because it looks more, well, practical probably isn't the right word. Real?)

As your clothes. It's Halloween. You dress up in a costume, say trick or treat, and people give you things. It's delightful.

*looks entirely bemused, like he's going to ask if she's out of her fucking mind, and the words are there, on his tongue, but Z would love the holiday, the outfit, him wearing it, and he shrugs, studies it a moment, and then strips down there and puts them on*

*when he's done, he plants his hands on his hips with the cape behind him and raises an eyebrow, like 'am I acceptable?'*

*studies him with a practiced eye, appreciating on Zahra's behalf and because he is a very attractive man*

I suppose that will do, but I think we need a second opinion. Or more. *steers him toward any of the women she feels will be good judges* Go say hello, dear. I'll handle the survey.

*abruptly very uneasy* I would rather not.

Trick or Treat

I still don't get why you asking means I hand out candy. *shrugs though and grabs the plate of chocolate chip cookies that he asked Ignis to make* I like these. So treat.

It's a tradition from the middle ages, during this time of year there were any number of religious and pagan traditions that have become modern Halloween. Originally the treats were left for wandering spirits and lost souls, eventually poor people and children would go around asking for treats in exchange for songs and prayers for the dead.

So you could require that I perform for you before letting me have my treat. *takes a cookie and bites into it*

That...was actually a useful answer. *considers* Do you actually sing?

Well, I CAN sing. Whether anyone would like to listen to it is another conversation altogether.

*little grin* Stick to the candy.

*grin of her own*

I don't know, I can do OTHER tricks.

What is happening here? Are you hitting on me? *looks vaguely confused*

It's called flirting. Slightly less aggressive than hitting on a man and quite a bit more enjoyable.

I know what flirting is. Why are you doing it with me?

Why not? You're attractive. I'm attractive. And it's fun.

Almost anyone here would be a better choice. Literally, anyone.

That is dependent on what one would like the outcome to be.

*just looks confused*

If all I want out of the encounter is to flirt and talk to an attractive man, then why does it matter if you're bad at it. Unless you're also unwilling to converse.

*she's honestly somewhat mystifying but he shrugs* Not great at that either.

**mystifying is sort of her raison d'etra so she would appreciate that **

So what are you good at?

Healing. Fighting.
