HALLOWEEN PARTY

[halfbloodhillmods]

Who: The entire camp!
What: Mr. D has moved up his festival of Apokries to coincide with Halloween! It's time to party! Where: All around the camp!
When: Thursday, October 31st
Why: Because, why not?

It was decided earlier in the month that to coincide with the holiday of Halloween, and to give campers a bit of fun after all this nonsense, that Mr. D would be holding his festival of Apokries early! As such the entire camp has been decked out in all sorts of spoooooky decorations.

It's as though a carnival has been set up over night, with music and food all around. There are satyrs and nymphs handing out candy at cabins (smarties for Athena, warheads for Ares, ect.) for any people wanting to trick or treat,  and campers running around in costumes. 

The ampitheatre has once again become a designated dancing spot, and Apollo might have returned to DJ, the arena miiiight have been transformed into a bit of a Haunted House (with special thanks to Hecate), and Demeter has set up a corn maze for campers to navigate through! 

It's time to have some fun!

PFFT so I was just about to tag you XD

[Sadie's only wallflowering because she misses her boyfriend. That being said, seeing a short Jack Skellington is enough to get her attention]

Nice costume.

Great minds think alike. ;D

[deathdiduspart]

[Nico looks over at her and tilts his head.]

Thanks. Yours looks nice, and pretty unique. I don't think there are a lot of Egyptian costumes around here.

[eye_of_isis]

Probably because they're afraid they'll get cursed if they did it wrong or something. I've seen a few mummies, though.

[She laughs a bit]

So, why Jack?

[deathdiduspart]

That's an alarming tendency to have.

[He has to admit that he's a little amused, and then he sighs.]

It's a joke. I think. I kinda took the title of Ghost King a little while back, and now... [Nico gestures to his costume in mild exasperation.]

[eye_of_isis]

They won't, of course, but. [She shrugs, giggling when he explains] And I thought mine was "uncreative". But, Ghost King?

[deathdiduspart]

[He shrugs.]

It was either me or King Minos keeping that title. I hated that guy, so I figured I'd better take it for myself than let him keep it.

[eye_of_isis]

[Whoosh, right over her head]

Alright, but why did you take it?

[deathdiduspart]

[He shrugs.]

Why not? I mean, I guess it's appropriate since I'm a son of Hades, but mostly he just made me angry enough to banish him back to the Underworld and steal his title.

[Nico is vindictive that way.]

What's the story behind your costume?

[eye_of_isis]

[Son of Hades? Death god? Huh]

Wife of Anubis. Also known as "what I hope to be in the next ten year years".

[deathdiduspart]

[Congratulations, Sadie Kane, you have surprised Nico di Angelo. He actually raises both his eyebrows. He takes the implication at face value. Hey, he's met Hel, why not have some Egyptian thrown in?]

I'm seriously talking to Anubis' girlfriend?

[eye_of_isis]

[She nods]

Technically! It's a bit complicated, what with Walt hosting him and everything. For added fun, my Dad's hosting Osiris.

[deathdiduspart]

[Nico has to think about this.]

So, basically, you're dating the god of funerals who is currently inhabiting a mortal guy, and your dad's got the king of the dead? [A slight head tilt.] I have to admit, I don't know Egyptian mythology as well as Greek. Is that sort of thing common?

[eye_of_isis]

Actually, I'm dating both of them? I liked both Walt and Anubis before Anubis took Walt as a host--like I said, it's complicated. But hosting sort of common, yeah, at least if you've got Pharaoh blood in you. I hosted Isis a few times, fighting Apophis.

[deathdiduspart]

Apophis? [He sounds a little uncertain.] That's the...snake?

[eye_of_isis]

Big nasty Chaos snake, yes.

[She shudders a bit]

Ugh. I still have nightmares.

[deathdiduspart]

Can't blame you.

[Well, he might as well introduce himself now and not be called Jack for the rest of his life.]

I'm Nico di Angelo, by the way. It's nice to meet you.

[eye_of_isis]

Sadie Kane. Hades is the god of the dead, right? I only know the Disney film and what I've picked up from here, sorry.

[deathdiduspart]

[He can't help smiling at that.]

Yeah, god of the dead and all the wealth under the earth. He's...not easy to get along with, but he's still family.

[And that's putting it diplomatically.]

[eye_of_isis]

[She snorts]

Try having a brother who's Pharaoh. He's not bad but that's only because I regularly call and put him in his place.

[Gloating~]

[deathdiduspart]

I'm glad I'm not related to royalty, now. If only so that I don't have to deal with politics. Is he older or younger?

[eye_of_isis]

Older, which only makes it worse. He can try and use both titles over me!

[deathdiduspart]

I think that's a universal trait for older siblings. A pretty annoying one, but.

[He shrugs.]

[eye_of_isis]

Yet it's the younger ones who are the sensible ones. You'd think they'd learn that by now.

[deathdiduspart]

Hey, if they'd learned that, then we would be out of a job.

[He sighs a little.]

Though, my job description has probably changed to older brother. I'm kind of a middle child.

[eye_of_isis]

You're not the oldest so I think it still counts. Besides, you've got to be more sensible than my stupid brother who left in the middle of saving the world to go rescue his girlfriend who didn't even remember him.
