WHO: Deuce Gorgon and OPEN WHERE: Spirit Halloween WHEN: Sunday afternoon WHAT: Shopping for a Halloween Costume WARNINGS: TBD, probably low
October was a good time to be a Monster. Not only did they have their own celebrations towards the end of the month, but it was a lot easier to pass because humans kept dressing up like them, too. For a short part of the year, he didn't have to be careful to hide the green scales on his skin - which was hard to do anyway because it seemed like no make-up could cover them. But hey, humans were trying to get that look this time of year, so it was actually pretty cool.
Nonetheless, even though he was already a monster, he wanted to dress up and experience Halloween like the humans did. He was sure he could get some tips from Clawdeen, but he wanted to see how he could do on his own, first.
So he made his way to the place that everyone seemed to guide him - the Spirit Halloween store which seemed to have taken over...a dentist's office. Ah, well, that was properly scary anyway.
He walked the aisles, not recognizing a lot of the costumes. He wasn't great with human pop culture, although he'd gotten better at it since arriving here. He still just had a long way to go.
He finally stopped by the more traditional costumes. He tried to hold back his grin as he looked at the witches, vampires, zombies, werewolves...all of which looked very little like the real thing.
"Hmm...maybe I should be a zombie werewolf."
He didn't know any of them that existed, so he wouldn't be mocking anyone.
