everybody's comin'; leave your body at the door
Who: EVERYONE.
What: The Pax Halloween Party, part one.
Where: Pax Letale apartment complex, rec room.
When: 7 p.m., Oct. 31.
Notes: Hi guys! Sorry this took so long to get up; things have been pretty crazy here. But here is the Halloween event! This is the first part, and should be treated like a regular event; please mark where and when your character can be found throughout the room. Please remember that your character must be wearing their Halloween mask provided to them at the beginning of the month in order to gain admission to the rec room party. This is crucial for the second part of the event. If there are two people in a thread, please ask permission before entering; if you have any questions, please contact the mods! Now on with the show!

Despite the general eeriness of the building at large, those who make their way downstairs to the Halloween party will find it decorated to entertain. The lobby's emptiness will have been filled by a set of bloody sticker footprints from the elevator leading toward the rec room, through the door of which lights and music blare into the hallway. Stephan is waiting outside the entry way, dressed to the nines like a bald Morticia Addams, his red nails clicking on a clipboard as he takes note of who's arrived and who hasn't. Those who aren't dressed appropriately—read: with their Pax-provided masks—will be denied entry until they go and retrieve said item. Upon entry, Stephan will make the remark that attendees are to enjoy themselves, and that a special guest of honor will arrive a few hours later.

Those who make it past the drag queen bouncer will find a rather ghoulishly delightful party inside. Orange and black streamers hang in wound loops from the walls, pinned carefully to the molding near the ceiling. Bats, cartoon cutouts of witches flying over a waning moon, black cats, and pumpkins all cover the walls from top to bottom; carved pumpkins are set on every available table space, lit and flickering in the low light. The doors to the pool area are open, a disco ball shining orange, black and white specks over everything as classic Halloween hits are played from a nearby boombox. The pool itself glows a ghostly green.

Back inside the rec room, a long table opposite the pool table is laden with hot dog finger treats, feet made of meatloaf, speared deviled eggs painted like eyeballs, and every other appropriately-themed Halloween food item an attendee could think of. In the middle of it all, amid black and orange plates and clear, orange-y cups, is a bowl filled generously with store-bought candy. On either side are punch bowls filled with green and red liquid; the former will taste like apple cider, the latter a regular tropical punch. Neither are alcoholic, but attendees are welcome to sneak their own into the party—Stephan's not watching that closely.

Overall, the party seems normal—too normal for some, though no one will find any mislaid bear traps, poisoned candy or razor-blade laden apples anywhere in the vicinity. Might as well enjoy it while it lasts....

He moved closer in answer, sucking the last bit of sauce from the tip of his thumb. "I do," he said. He looked from Alice to Isobel and back again, as though his lingering gaze might impress upon them how intensely he believed this.

"Gabe and I... we were over, Alice. There was nothing pre-established about us. A foundation, sure, but when I saw him here, I thought I had less of a chance than I would have had we not known each other at all. You know? But now..." His smile only grew. He shrugged. "This place is bizarre, but that doesn't mean good things aren't possible here. Don't discount this thing with Lucas, whatever it may end up being, before it's even started."

Alice bit her lip as she listened to both of her friends but by the end, she was slowly nodding her head. Taking another good drink of the highly alcoholic punch, she gave a final nod before lowering the half empty cup. "You're both right," she admitted. "I'm just frightened, you know all of my relationships have gone sour very quickly. And..."

She found Lucas in the crowd and her facial features softened as she gazed at him. "I like his company, I like being able to talk to him and share with him everything that's happened at the apartment. I...I don't want to lose his friendship by messing it up with a relationship. But..."

She bit at her lip again before pulling her gaze back to her friends. "He likes me, I like him, might as well give it a go, right?"


[OOC: I think a tag from both of you can give some final say and sort of push her on her way to go talk to Lucas? LMK if you want to extend it!]

"Yes," Isobel replied, a hint too excitedly. Her hand reached to brush Alice's elbow encouragingly, the smile on her face happy for her friend.

"And if anything happens, we're here. OK? So just come look for us." She didn't mention that she'd more than likely be keeping an eye on the proceedings between Alice and Lucas regardless; she wanted the redhead to feel secure enough to fly off on her own, into this enticing proposition.

[OOC: I'm good! Last tag from Isobel.]

Rafe's smile broadened considerably. The look on her face was confirmation enough, assurance that they were pushing her in the right direction. He owed her this much, after all; all the times she'd listened to him, all the help she had offered him in his numerous times of need. The least he could do was goad her toward seeking her own happiness.

"Absolutely. Now go on." He waved her toward the crowd, back to where Lucas lingered. He arched a brow, his grin still shining in his eyes. "And let us know how it goes!"

[ooc: yesss last one from Rafe]

Alice looked between her friends, raised her cup to her lip where she finished off the drink that was already getting to her head, then nodded. "Here goes nothing," she said, although her voice came out more nervous than she intended. Tampering her tone with a bright smile, she stepped forward as her hands brushed against Rafael and Isobel's arms, a final note of gratitude before she moved through the crowd toward Lucas.
