Masquerade [Open to all]

[stringmods]

Who: Everyone
Where: Near Scorpio's Central Art District
Summary: You all did good. Halloween is being celebrated in style.
Warnings: Nothing for the moment. Costumes?
Congratulations!

You've proven your worth to the city of Hinoto-Ri and this year the Masquerade is dedicated to you. You deserve the party, considering you saved the city from the Zodiac Monster! Besides, on the most powerful spiritual days, even the demons take a day off and enjoy a time of frightful good times with the humanoids.



The lights are all colored blue and purple, and the streets are filled with partygoers of all ages, in both fantastic and some-not-that-fantastic costumes. Pumpkins appear to be floating in the air, but once you come closer, you realize they are Pyro Jacks attending around. This is THEIR favorite holiday and they wouldn't have let it gone to waste!

Originally the Masquerade was to be celebrated around Scorpio's art center, but with the rebuilding still in process, it was moved close by, with the office of wands preparing all the charms needed. The streets need to be protected, considering the Full Moon was just a few days ago.

If you find yourself without any money, no worries! The Government has given you a bonus paycheck for your hard work last week. Costume shopping should be no problem, and the are still stores nearby selling their wears for last minute shopping!

With a small secure sector, it's sure to be an extra fantastic celebration of dancing, music and just watching both humans and demons going at it without much care. Candy is floating around thanks to the Pyro Jacks, grab something and try not to ruin your teeth. Hey, who IS that guy just passed by? Hard to tell.

After all, with these combination of Halloween costumes and a more high class masquerade ballgowns and masks, who knows is really human and who isn't?

It had taken Rune some time to settle on her costume, and to her credit she still looked a little uncomfortable in it. Really, she didn't know her chest was capable of bouncing and rolling like it was, even though she didn't have much of a cup compared to Chrystal, and it was something she never really wanted to find out.

...didn't mean she wasn't going to enjoy herself though. Because, seriously, floating pumpkin demons and candy everywhere? She officially loved this "holiday" thing.

Can the future of Hyrule really depend on such a flustered boy? Because my does this psuedo-Link with angel wings look miiiiiiiiiighty flustered.

Oh, there was Pit! She raised an arm to wave to him...!

...Pit was staring.

...Pit was turning red.

...oh dammit. Rune crossed her arms over her chest, turning red herself.

"PIT!"

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

Pit covers his eyes. "I didn't see anything!!!!"

Not that that helps.

[pistolsakimbo]

Rune stamped her foot, fuming.

"Of course you didn't see anything! There's nothing to see!"

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

"Mmggg, why do I always mess this up?" he whines. He says it to himself, but Rune can hear it easily.

[pistolsakimbo]

Rune let out an annoyed noise, rolling her eyes.

"Because you're completely clueless."

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

"I know," he groans.

Where's a Shrinky Bean when you need it? He'd really like to be a quarter his size right now and hide.

[pistolsakimbo]

Rune didn't feel much better, and she was keeping her arms crossed over her chest, fidgeting on the spot.

"...so, what are you supposed to be?" she finally asked after a long moment.

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

"Link from The Legend of Zelda."

You might want to tell him to take his hands off his eyes.

[pistolsakimbo]

"What's that?"

She paused, making a face; she's not entirely sure she wants him to remove his hands from his eyes. After a moment she let out a sigh, pulling out her shawl from her back pocket and throwing it over her shoulders. It didn't cover much more, but it was an effort to make it better?

"You can look now, you know."

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

Pit peers through his fingers. N-no, that's not much better, but at least it's not BARE BOOBIE SKIN.

So reluctantly, he drops his hands--and stares at the ground.

"I-it's a video game."

[pistolsakimbo]

Rune fought back a groan. "Stop looking like a kicked puppy.

"And what's a video game?"

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

uh oh

you can just hear the obligatory record scratch

"You don't know what a video game is?!"

[pistolsakimbo]

"Er...?"

Geeze, what was his problem.

"Whatever they are, I don't think they exist on my world."

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

"Hello again," greeted a purple fairy. Who was...a little impressed with Rune, but decided not to mention it. She has learned from experience that everyone is happier that way.

"I'm glad to see you wound up alright after that mess last week," Latooni added, by way of small talk.

[pistolsakimbo]

Aw, she was so cute in that outfit. Rune beamed at her.

"Yeah, that was a bit crazy," Rune replied, rubbing the back of her neck. "But it seems like everyone got through okay!"

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

"Mostly, anyway," she said, remaining respectful of the people who had wound up in the hospital from stings or exhaustion. "You and Pit were alright after I left, then?"

[pistolsakimbo]

"Oh, yeah. Pit got me home okay," Rune answered. You know, minus the whole part where he tried to defend her and got her poisoned instead.

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

"Somehow, you don't look completely happy about that...," Latooni observed, wondering.

[pistolsakimbo]

"...he accidentally got me poisoned," she deadpanned.

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

"What? How did he do that?" she asked. Left unspoken was the more important question of why no one in town seemed to have a Persona that could cure poison.

[pistolsakimbo]

"He forgot that I was perfectly capable of taking care of myself," she grumbled in annoyance, folding her arms over her chest.

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

"...sounds like a couple of people I know," Latooni observed. "You're okay now though, right?"

[pistolsakimbo]

"Yeah, I'm fine!"
