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.)

[ He lets himself be tugged along, but still doesn't look too thrilled. ]

If you're gonna talk me into something, I'd rather drink than dance.

Mmm, too late.

[ As Joshua sweeps Sanae into his arms... or at least tries to. He giggles and leans in close. ] I look older.

Josh--

[ Sanae's too busy trying to force his vibe down to resist, and for a minute, he manages it. It's the wings he's worried about here, man. The drunken antics don't bother him so much as the threat to his wings. ]

Older, yeah. I've noticed.

[ Then it should be a small bit of confidence that Joshua seems to be holding onto Sanae's arms almost as much to support himself as to keep the other close. ]

Mmm, I was right. A cat and an angel don't make much of a couple. [ He sways a bit and giggles. ]

A weird couple is still a couple.

[ He won't deny that this is the second year straight he's gone to a ball with Josh, no matter how odd it feels to use the word 'couple' for the two of them. So he stays put, not dancing but certainly staying close without complaining. And trying to hide the slowly surfacing amusement, now that his wings are put away. ]

True. I don't think it would have been pleasant if I'd been a devil, though. [ Well, Josh will be vaguely-dancing around him then, giggling all the while ]

[ It draws a smile from him before long. ]

Mm. What's it like, bein' a cat?

[ Joshua pauses a moment to consider that. Then bursts into another fit of giggles. ] It tickles. [ And we're back to vaguely dancing-ish ]
