HAPPY HALLOWEEN BITCHES 🎃

[resumed]

code

Welcome, foolish mortals, to the Haunted Mansion...though you may have once known it as the Crimson Phoenix dorm. As you approach, you may find that the area is hardly recognizable. There are several tables set up outside hosting all sorts of activities, and at the front and center is a small, cheerfully crackling bonfire. Scattered around the outside are several fake tombstones with equally fake inscriptions painted on them and lit by soft glowing lights with various skeletons posed around the graveyard. In the front on the way to the main door is a twelve-foot skeleton dressed as a witch, and from here you can see three inflatable pumpkins on the roof. Approaching the dorm itself, you'll find that the outside has been decked out in lights and decor, and the inside is just as elaborate and extra. Terrible idea to give teenagers unlimited money and time on their hands, huh?

As you enter through the lobby, you'll find that you may be guided to enter a haunted maze. Adventurers beware...

...but for those of you who are more interested in the festivities upstairs, residents of Phoenix dorm will happily shuttle you up to the second floor in an elevator decked out with floating candles. Upon reaching this floor, you'll be greeted with the lounge. There are plenty of couches with red cushions and blankets for maximum comfort, and the entire floor is equally decorated. Various horror movies play on mute from the TV mounted against the wall, and music seems to reverberate throughout the dorm everywhere you go. Loud enough to enjoy, but not loud enough to disrupt conversation. Hanging from the ceiling there also appears to be a large pinata in the shape of the moon, a large wooden stick leaning against the wall with a bandana draped over the top...batter up!

The four bedrooms appear to be blocked off with caution tape, but the two bathrooms and the kitchen are open to everyone. And while there's a third floor...there's nothing of interest up there other than space and more decor to admire as you mingle.

The party's just getting started. Have fun and get spooky.

MUSIC + MOVIES

[resumed]

Honestly, it's entirely possible the music playing upon entering the house is the OG, and the movie is N*ghtmare Before Christmas. Feel free to comment below if you want to change either one.

[ Rabbit is here sporting nine fox tails, long ears, white hair, and red eyes. They are also dressed as a ninja! ]

This is a peculiar movie.

[floridas]

[ she is curled up on the couch in her outfit after making the rounds, just vibing and watching the movie! ]

What's peculiar about it?

[becomemod]

[ Cute! ]

I suppose the animation style. I really haven't anything like this.

[ They have seen Ox's anime! And some of the cartoons kids watch. This isn't quite like that. ]

[floridas]

[ she nods ]

It's called "stop motion." They actually move the characters around a little at a time, take a picture, and then put the pictures together so it looks like they're actually moving around. It takes a lot of time and patience to get it to look so fluid...

[becomemod]

So it's like puppeteering, but taking pictures of it. That's quite impressive. [ Rabbit is going to watch for a bit longer before turning their attention to Jolyne ]

It's a shame I can't see your cute face like this, but it does some how suit your energy.

[resumed]

[ leans over the back of the couch they are on to look at the screen. flavortext is also he's wearing this sheer and slightly cropped shirt, distressed black skinny jeans and paired with black combat boots. someone did makeup for him to frame his nearly pitch-black eyes, and the bat wings actually seem to fit him again compared to when he was shrunken a few hours ago.

even his little claws are painted black, a few silver rings on his fingers and a necklace on display. ]

You think? I like this one. [ of course you do, nico. ]

[becomemod]

[ Rabbit is going to look delighted at seeing him. They grow up so fast! ]

Look at you. You're looking quite stylish tonight. [ They look at the screen again. ] I'm used to seeing one of Ox's animated movies. This one is quite different compared to it.

[resumed]

[ he just grins at them. ]

Jolyne helped a lot with the makeup. But...you know. Halloween. [ he's watching the screen too though. ] What kind of animated stuff does Ox usually watch? More two-dimensional?

[becomemod]

Maybe I should have her help out with mind some time.

[ They don't know Halloween, but won't ask at the moment. ]

More two-dimensional and much more wholesome compared to this. I believe the last one we watched had a witch with a delivery service.

[unsync]

Oh, well. Movies is kind of fun... and this one isn't scary at all.

[ That's lovely. Who put a pumpkin head on him. I won't answer, I'm just making it happen. ]

[foreverphantom]

[



pokes a finger into one of the eye carvings ]

[unsync]

This is rude.

[ But he doesn't react because the mystery is funnier. ]

[foreverphantom]

[ well if it's not hurting mr. pumpkinhead...

pokes deeper. when will he hit something solid, and will it be eyeball? or pumpkin guts? ]

[unsync]

[ Neither because he's leaning back when he keeps trying it anyway. ]

What is wrong with you!

[resumed]

[ looming over him and just letting this happen. ]

Figured we'd start easy mode with something light. Can you actually see out of that thing?

[unsync]

[ He's accepted his lot in life that things just happen to him. If Pumpkin got added to his name, it would merely be another in an already overlong list. ]

Yeah, don't worry. Though I guess it's kind of putting some triangle-shaped dampeners on the whole peripheral vision thing, but I'll take it over only having vision out of my right eye.

[ Since he got his eye fixed and now has full vision again. ]

[resumed]

[ please help him. begging. ]

On the bright side there isn't much that could actually come up on you without warning as long as you're sitting in one spot. Angle your head a little and you could still see enough. [ he does not suggest taking the head off for some reason. honestly i would also respect if you just decided this was his monster form in general lowe. anyway. ]

Glad you can see the silver lining in all of this though. [ hehe. ] And I am glad you showed up.

[unsync]

[ No. ]

Well, I can hardly say no... [ He's decently social. That and Tama would find him and force him here otherwise. ] I'm just glad to see everyone having a good time.

[ Meanwhile Hanako just Terminator visioning him ready to pinata his ass. ]

[ballies]

[ puts a little bat decoration on his pumpkin and wanders off ]

[unsync]

[ Pats at it to try to find it and peels it off to look at it. ]

[ballies]

[ he has a bat friend now. just a little guy. it looks more like a fuzzy circle with wings but it’s still Cute ]

[becomemod]

[ Can he hear the movie over the hum of air keeping Godz*illa expanded? They are going to plop down on the couch ]

Are you scared of scary movies?

[unsync]

Oh, uh... not... well, I'm not sure. I haven't really watched a lot of them.

[becomemod]

Do you want to give it a try after this one?
