Wouldn't you like to see something strange?

Who: Everybody!
What: The Halloween Ball is finally here.
When: Evening of October 31st. (Or earlier, for those who arrive pre-Ball to take advantage of the safety bubble.)
Where: In the village's main plaza.
Summary: After one of the most grueling weeks Luceti's ever known, it finally all comes to a head when a massive, spooky tent appears over the plaza. Once night falls, you never know what might happen...
Rating: Anywhere from PG to R for language or graphic descriptions, most likely.

It happens at midnight.

Without even a hint of a whisper, faster than you can even blink, the tent appears; a towering monstrosity of dirty, ripped canvas in stripes of black and red and white, swallowing the plaza whole. For most of the day it sits, silent and empty, with its great main flaps pulled open to show only inky blackness inside.

Step inside, however, and you'll see it's dimly lit with silver shafts of light that streak in through all those rips and tears. As foreboding as it appears, it's strangely peaceful inside.

Come 7:00 on the dot, that quiet, empty interior will instantaneously transform for the purposes of the evening. Even this sudden change, unlike many Luceti resident have undergone lately, is not as eerie as one might expect. Despite the gothic trappings, the blood punch fountain, there's something a little benign about it. Perhaps this is meant to be a reward for all that suffering you've been forced to endure for almost a week now.

Or maybe -- just maybe -- and who would ever think such a thing? -- it's not so benign after all.

(so, so sorry this is late, guys. have at it, comment-spam style! also, optional suggestion: put the time of day in your subject line title so we know if your character is showing up before or during the Ball itself.)

You went into the fog too, huh?

Yeah I needed to get out of my apartment for a while. Just managed to pick a bad time to do it. [Never mind that he stayed out there and wandered until he finally ended up at the library.]
markofthewise: (Woof)

[personal profile] markofthewise 2010-11-02 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
I was out looking for someone. It was the first time the fog showed up.

[identity profile] violet-veda.livejournal.com 2010-11-02 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
...Who was it? [Hoping it wasn't Katara.]
markofthewise: (Yeah. No.)

[personal profile] markofthewise 2010-11-02 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
Aang. [If Michael even knows just a little about Katara, he'd know how big of a deal that is.]

[identity profile] violet-veda.livejournal.com 2010-11-02 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
[He probably caught a bit of it at that dinner you missed, at least.] Was he alright?
markofthewise: (Completely blew it)

[personal profile] markofthewise 2010-11-02 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
No, he was sent home. I wasn't really looking for him... it was Appa. But I guess he was sent home too.

[He sighs at that.] Anyway, I stayed out too long.

[identity profile] violet-veda.livejournal.com 2010-11-02 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
[He casts his gaze down for a moment.]

Aang was a good kid. A shame I won't get to know him better. This has been a pretty nasty Halloween, hasn't it?
markofthewise: (No. Just no.)

[personal profile] markofthewise 2010-11-02 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
[He nods.]

He's lucky to get to miss it. Maybe Katara is too.

[identity profile] violet-veda.livejournal.com 2010-11-02 06:49 am (UTC)(link)
[He'll try not to think about how much worse they could make this week for Katara.]

I really hope so.
markofthewise: (Space Sword time)

Sometimes they do stuff that's not so bad. Annoying... but not all that bad.

[identity profile] violet-veda.livejournal.com 2010-11-03 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
I'm still worried about what will happen next time they come for me. From the sound of things, I got off exceedingly light. Nothing but a few bruises and a damaged ego.
markofthewise: (Gimme a break)

[personal profile] markofthewise 2010-11-03 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
They've got you before, huh?

[identity profile] violet-veda.livejournal.com 2010-11-05 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
[He nods.] For about a week, and I had barely been here a whole week to begin with.
markofthewise: (nomnomnom)

[personal profile] markofthewise 2010-11-05 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
Wow. Talk about being unlucky.

[identity profile] violet-veda.livejournal.com 2010-11-05 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
Given that I came back in one piece and don't remember much... I think I actually was, sadly.
markofthewise: (Chin scratcher)

[personal profile] markofthewise 2010-11-05 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Yeeeeah, I remember when they had me. I haven't decided if that's a good thing or not yet.

[identity profile] violet-veda.livejournal.com 2010-11-05 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
Think I prefer not knowing... but saying that, I'll probably be proven wrong soon enough.
markofthewise: (Yeah whatever)

[personal profile] markofthewise 2010-11-06 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
You never know. I nearly managed a whole year without them ever dragging me off.

[identity profile] violet-veda.livejournal.com 2010-11-07 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
I can only hope to be so lucky. [He smiles grimly.]
markofthewise: (Best at what I do)

[personal profile] markofthewise 2010-11-08 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
Well we can't all be me. [Sokka? He's not letting himself get down, now. He's all about staying upbeat about this party thing.]

[identity profile] violet-veda.livejournal.com 2010-11-11 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
[Lucky for Michael, the mood seems to be rubbing off, at least a little.]

Hah. A real shame, that~
markofthewise: (nomnomnom)

[personal profile] markofthewise 2010-11-11 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know. I mean, I'd be pretty tough competition. For myself, that is.

[identity profile] violet-veda.livejournal.com 2010-11-13 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
At least you'd keep yourself on your toes?
markofthewise: (Yeah whatever)

[personal profile] markofthewise 2010-11-15 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
There is no greater competition than yourself...
