I see the bad moon rising / I see trouble on the way

[lucetimods]

Who: Everyone!
What: There are these crazy masks everywhere, you see. And does the moon look strange to you?
When: The 23rd through the 30th. (If you want to backdate a thread in here to the 22nd for some reason, feel free. A separate log for the day of Halloween will go up at a later date!)
Where: Everywhere!
Summary: Things are starting to get a little spooky around here. What with masks that range from silly to creepy to downright menacing turning up everywhere, the people wearing them beginning to act strangely, and that menacing moon looking down.... why, it's starting to feel a little like Halloween.
Rating: Anywhere from G to hard R for violence, I'd imagine.

BOO!

.... ahem. Details are here! Have fun, everyone! (Oh, and please do remember to add character tags!)

I didn't know you're a Namingway, Mister Cecil!

[As long he won't give a ridiculously tough challenge like Lucifer.]

[paladinlost]

Mister Namingway. And this has been my line of work for quite some time.

[...A whole day.]

[de_bel_survivor]

I wasn't aware of it. But then again, I never really ask about your work before.

[Probably because Cecil looks...he's not sure what word to use.]

[paladinlost]

I've held various posts and duties.

[Ruling, fighting, rebuilding, pillaging...]

[de_bel_survivor]

Such as?

[Saving the world would probably count.]

[paladinlost]

I've been a squire, a dark knight, the Lord Commander of the Red Wings...

[There might be a pattern there.]

[de_bel_survivor]

Judging from that list, you're rising up in ranks. What's next after Lord Commander?

[Royalty?]

[paladinlost]

Overworked treaty-signer.

[Yes, royalty.]

[de_bel_survivor]

[Let's see, a typical treaty-signer would be--]

You're a king?

[paladinlost]

One without a kingdom at the moment, but one still.

[de_bel_survivor]

...Is it tough, being a king? [Probably not the same between them, but he'd like to hear his thoughts.]

[paladinlost]

...There is no better work to teach you that you cannot make everyone happy.

[Which should be enough of an answer, coming from him.]

[de_bel_survivor]

I see... Thank you for answering.

[His choice did make a lot of people unhappy with him, but while some of his friends learn to accept and trust him, it still left some loose ends.]

[paladinlost]

You're welcome. Would you like a new name with that?

[Not giving that up yet!]

[de_bel_survivor]

[Ahahah...]

Sorry, but no thank you. I think I like my name as it is.

[He already have two names, anyway.]

[paladinlost]

Such a shame. I could have given you the boldesst, most impressive name...

[Why break his heart so callously?]

[de_bel_survivor]

Just out of curiosity, what name would that be?

[paladinlost]

...The Great Kouki Man?

[At least it's not a Disney villain name?]

[de_bel_survivor]

...That's a nice name, but I might have to pass on that.

[Does his name really brought that on?]

[paladinlost]

Such a shame. It would fit you perfectly, I believe.

[He named his goddaughter Ursula. Does Kouki really want to be a Jafar?]
