HALLOWEEN SPOOKTACULAR & OKTOBERFEST? BEER AND PUMPKINS GALORE!

[rockinthrutime.livejournal.com]

Who: EVERYONE!
What: Journal Cafe Log.
Where: The Cafe!
When: October 29th.
Warnings: DRUKEN PEOPLE, DEAR READER.

Ahh Friday the 29th! It's not quite like Friday the 13th, but it's the perfect day to have a festival of spookiness and one celebrating German sausages and beer, right? Bob is looking for an excuse to get wasted going to celebrate with a traditional feast!

The destination? The quaint little place that just happened to be owned by Arceus and Kyle also known as 'Monsier Kyle's Cupcakes'. The theater turned cafe, turned theater again for this night, where the stage stood proudly behind black and orange curtains. Candles floated in the air everywhere instead of the usual lights. The tables arranged with tasteful cloth sheets and huge chandeliers hanging from the ceiling (which you couldn't see thanks to a smoke machine (or at least it was hopefully a smoke machine) right above your head. Be careful not to bump your head!

Yet let's not forget that not only is it Halloween Spooktacular, it's also an homage to Oktoberfest! And while you'd think that the thousand of candles would make this place unbelievable hot, it's rather comfortable and cold. In fact that's not what's hot. It's the sausages! The thousands of them! Sausages as far as the eye can see, of all sizes, shapes and varieties from sour to spicy to bacon-filled. Cabbages, sauerkraut and sauces! Knödel (potato or bread dumplings), Kasspatzn (cheese noodles), Reiberdatschi (potato pancakes what do you mean I stole these from wikipedia) exploding from all sides of the kitchen. Oh and Bretzels they're made with real Brets bigger than your fist or even your HEAD! And the Beer. There is beer. EVERYWHERE. BEER. For those who are under the age of 19, we have non-alcohol beverages available (okay okay, it's juice). Grape, Pear, Strawberry, Cherry, you can drink them and pretend you're having an awesome time as the adults and some even almost taste like wine and beer! But really, don't you wish you were 19 like the rest? Hahahaha too bad.

Your waiters are dressed appropriately. But due to the nature of the game, sometime they come out to serve you dressed like this, sometimes, the building gets tired of that and they suddenly have a Halloween costume! You never know what might happen (...and neither do they, admittedly).

MAGICAL THINGS ARE AFOOT. For you see, the minute you enter the building, a fog envelopes you and suddenly! Poof! You're in a Halloween costume! What is it? It's MAGIC! Handy right? Forget having to spend hours for that perfect hairdo, at least tonight you'll be a perfect costume, without regards to budget. It is merely what your imagination. Besides, even someone like Bob is mischievous this time of the year.

There is music playing that changes between traditional German Songs and something a little more Halloweeeny.

Bob herself is dressed up appropriately. Well, you think? She seems to change costumes everytime she talks to someone else or she moves behind a well concealed pole or door. How does she do that? And Kyle seems to be dressed up as some sort of cook. A rather simple costume, it almost fits in the fact they are in a kitchen. What's odd is there are red peppers floating all around him..

As for Flurrie? She is prepared for the night in the only way she knows how. Boobs.

Come on in! Be merry! Enjoy your new costume! Get Drunk! Eat Sausages! Tell Scary Stories! Celebrate! Have Pumpkin Pie!

[OOC - Feel free to start out threads with your dudes doing things if you'd like. Mingle with each other, sometimes there will be special threads like Flurrie's stories to tell after dark, or bobbing for apples, or sausage feasts. Take a seat, let the waiters come to you, Imagine your dudes in the most terrible of costumes!]

Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[thewunderkind]

Yeah, after talking with Bob and Uxie, and having the most ridiculous outfit being put on her via maiglc...Lash was just busy fuming in place, twirling the tea spoon in her left hand and glaring at everyone. She hoping a friend or two would turn out and come here before she'd bomb the entire place down.

[readuringbattle.livejournal.com]

...Oh. Was that... Lash?

The reasoning behind Canas' question is exactly her outfit. Sure, he himself was thrown into some wacky costume (http://i801.photobucket.com/albums/yy292/smaaaaash/linking/armed_by_vladislausdantes.jpg), but after he noticed Lash, he noticed it less and less.

"Lash..." he began, approaching her. "...What happened here?"

[thewunderkind]

Canas that tophat seemed almost fitting. Also she would be so happy to have that costume goddamn it looked way more fun. Guns and glowing bits vs cat ears...yeah.

"The place is decorated for Halloween and some sort of sausage festival. Nyan."

She pretended she hadn't said the last part as she looked at him seriously.

[readuringbattle.livejournal.com]

He smiled crookedly. "Well, yes, I know, but..." Canas almost pointed at her, but he stopped himself. "You didn't choose that, did you? I don't think you did, but..."

Canas wondered what the 'nyan' meant.

[thewunderkind]

"I don't even know if it's supposed to be a costume at all apart from a way to humiliate me." She pouted a bit.

[readuringbattle.livejournal.com]

The smile was wiped off his face and promptly replaced with a frown. "Oh. That's terrible," he responded quietly, eyeing the seat adjacent to her own. "Mind if I...?"

"This sucks." Magical Catgirl Kumatora said as she took a seat next to Lash.

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[thewunderkind]

Lash would have laughed but...

"Yeah totally. Nyan."

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[oso-tigre.livejournal.com]

"...Did you just meow."

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[thewunderkind]

"Nyan. I mean nope!"

Oh look, it's mostly-naked red-cape-and-leather-jockstrap clad Max. This isn't disturbing at all in the least (at all).

Who is this mystery person at this table with the poofy skirt and cat ears and... Lash?

"Lash?"

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[thewunderkind]

"Max what are you wearing, nyan. Or not wearing, I guess. Wow."

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[tank-rockarms.livejournal.com]

"Uh, a helmet and this cape and some boots and some leather underwear. This stuff's awful, it chafes."

What a delightful conversation.

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[thewunderkind]

"Yeah that's really great. At least you don't have lace like me. It itches."

Very delightful.

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[tank-rockarms.livejournal.com]

"Leather. Underwear. It can't breathe. So much worse than lace."

So delightful.

Claus slid in, embarrassed, next to Lash at her table. He was dressed in a school uniform, but it was different from SBG's. It was black and grey, and he was wearing a maroon and gold tie. Yes. He may or may not have been Ron Weasley. For some unknown(?) reason, he was also wearing a blue sweatband on his head. All in all it was a very interesting ensemble.

"... Hey."

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[thewunderkind]

"Hey! Nyan....that's a strange costume." Lash paused. "What's with the headband?"

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[pkmachomega.livejournal.com]

"Yeah. Yours too." His hand drifted self consciously up to his head, unable to move the headband from it's place.

"I have no idea," He reached into his pocket, pulling out a packet of red licorice. "I think the costume came with this, though, because I definitely didn't have any candy in my pocket on my way over."

He offered the packet to Lash.

"Want some? I can't stop eating them and they keep regenerating, like magic."

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[thewunderkind]

"...magic regenerating licorice...." She looked at Claus and pondered this for a bit.

..."Let's see how much you can get out of there!"

She was completely and totally serious.

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[pkmachomega.livejournal.com]

"I don't know how much more of this stuff I can stomach..."

But on the other hand, just looking at the candy package made him want to keep eating from it. It was like he couldn't help himself.

"... But, okay."

Suddenly, Hawke. With sunglasses and what looked like a temporary tattoo on his face. What the heck?

He suddenly understood what Bob meant when she said that he was one of the lucky ones. Lash's outfit was...an adventure, to put it lightly. Somehow he felt the need to inquire about it anyway. "What are you wearing?"

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[thewunderkind]

She has secretly been hoping Hawke would have not noticed, as Lash sank deeper and deeper into her chair. It wasn't so hard to spot him, he nearly looked the same! Lucky son of a b- However, her doom was sealed, and when her commander came near her, she snapped back into attention, nervously fidgeting the collar around her neck. Her eyes almost looked pitiful under all those glowing candles, like she just wanted out of it so bad but couldn't.

"I'm a..." she paused, her hand mid-air and she realized a very important thing. "You know...I have no idea. The universe's lamest joke maybe?" She looked up and down at him. "At least one of us got lucky."

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[black-hawke.livejournal.com]

He sat down in an empty chair, hoping that someone would come along eventually and get him some goddamn coffee.

"Is it stuck on?"

Re: Lash's Table (OPEN TO ANYONE)

[thewunderkind]

She sighed and tried to move the kitten ears. No luck.

"Yeah I think it is. Nyan."

[black-hawke.livejournal.com]

He paused and raised a non-existent eyebrow.

"Nyan."
