1st Annual Halloween Block Party!

[iam_senpai]

Perhaps it's the leaves of fiery golds and oranges drifting on the breeze, or the sight of various hard squash being mangled into festive ornaments, or even still the bowls of candy left out simply everywhere in the Nexus that signifies the import of today. Regardless of when you take heed, Halloween has come to the Nexus.

Neat little handmade signs and fliers of all kinds lead to a particularly festive sectioned off block with the Crossroads Cafe at the center. The brick building has more than its fair share of decorations hung from every available windowsill and door. Hanging skeletons, jolly Jack-O-Lanterns, orange and black streamers cascading down and blowing to and fro in the crisp breeze.

The doors are propped open just waiting to beckon you inside. What are you waiting for?

((See the OOC post if you have any questions! Backtagging and threadhopping are fine. Come on in and have a blast :D ))

"Hey, I tried. She gave us the raisins." Clearly she doesn't have Hughes' powers of persuasion. It doesn't help that Eris is creepy even by her standards. Really, really creepy.

Though Hughes' words seem to shock her in a totally different way. He can't see the look she's giving him, of course, but it's in her voice, the jerk of her shoulders. "Hughes! You're not just going to give it to him, are you? Where's your sense of honor? You have to put up a fight! Make him show his mettle!"

"Next year, I'm going with you and I'll win her over to the side of candy." He's determined to make this happen now, so Blaze better be ready when this time of year rolls around again.

The talk of honor makes him laugh. "Never said it would be something he'd like after he got it, did I?" Oh how little faith she has in his cunning. Then again, he hasn't really had a reason to show it to her yet, but maybe some light-hearted fun at the party will be a good start. "Could always 'take a bite' out of him when I placate him, too," he adds with another small laugh. "That could be fun."

She laughs, apparently not taking it too seriously. She's going to be in for a surprise...

She's relieved by the rest of what he says, even if she can't show it effectively. Other than the laugh she lets out. "Show me what you've got, Intel. But try to keep it clean."

At least it's a good surprise?

"Come on, Blaze, there are kids at this party - of course I'm going to keep it clean!" He chuckles and shakes his head a bit at her. "But to your point, humans become vampires when they're bitten, right? So all I have to do is get real close for a minute and then he's all mine."

"I'm gonna get complaints for this, aren't I?" She snorts, but without a hint of regret.

[bestdadinamestris]

"Complaints? About me? Never." He grins, which looks a little silly with the fake plastic teeth he's got in. "Don't worry - I'll have everyone here under my thrall in no time and there will be no complaints to deal with."
