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!

Trick or treat! [ Bounding up to the Poseidon cabin, Heather sings her greeting, dressed in her alternate costume - Lady Han Solo. She holds out a satchel she found that matched her outfit. ]

You look way ethereal.

[annieisntokay]

[Annie rises to her feet, ducking behind her hair as she blushes at Heather's comment.] Oh, wow! Thanks. I, uh, well, I got the shells and sea weed myself. I got a little help with the shawl, but, ah, thanks. You look really great, too.

Really clever.

[She grabs a large handful of candy and puts it into her bowl.]

[excusing]

Ooh, Swedish Fish. Haven't had these in forev.

[ She plucks a package out and hastily unwraps it to pop a few into her mouth, grinning all the way. ]

Thanks, too! I had another costume but then I kind of feared for mine and Scott's lives? So, yeah, changed clothes.

[annieisntokay]

You're welcome.

[She grins, though, watching Heather's own happiness.] You did? What, uh, was it?

[excusing]

[ She pops another into her mouth, speaking around the candy. ]

Sexy Juno and Jupiter. Scott was Juno.

[annieisntokay]

I- [She can't help it. She's giggling wildly at the mental image.] Oh my goodness! I can't believe you even thought of that!

[excusing]

It's a way cute idea, right? But then, like, everyone was like haha-question mark? And I got kinda nervous, hence the change.

[ And Heather hates backing down from her grand plans :c ]

[annieisntokay]

Oh. Well, I liked it. I mean, sure it was all in good fun, right? So they wouldn't be mad or anything. It's not like mortals don't do that sort of thing all the time.

I'm still impressed you had that in your closet.

[excusing]

We have a lot of stuff in our cabin. You'll have to come check it out and claim something for yourself. I'm thinking like a nice pale green dress for you, swishy. Def swishy.

[ Heather shrugs amiably. ] How's your Halloween been?

[annieisntokay]

I think, ah, that'd be really great. I'd like to, if it's okay.

[A pale green swishy dress?] Oh, wow. That would be beautiful! If you have one, I'd like to try it on. You're so sweet, Heather.

[Heather's shrug is returned.] It's, uhm, low-key. I don't know if I'm going to go out tonight.

[excusing]

You should, at least for the campfire. Wouldn't that be fun? I'll even make you a s'more if you want.

[ She bounces on her heels. ] I never made 'em when I was little, but I think I've got the hang of it.

[annieisntokay]

Oh, maybe. I mean, I'm not really hungry. I probably won't be then, either.

My family would go camping some times. We'd eat them then... why didn't you have any? Or was it because you grew up in New Rome?

[excusing]

Before I hung out with Gramps in New Rome I grew up in Jingletown. Which is a total craphole but I still have a fondness for it?

Yeah, tons of concrete, too far from the water, nothing to do. No campfires.

[annieisntokay]

Oh. I, ah, understand that. I guess. I mean, I always liked Seattle...

That sounds terrible. I'm sorry. At least we're next to the water, with no concrete and tons of campfires!
