SAMHAIN PLOTTING

[extramural]

Hi everyone, Gadgets here! A few people on Plurk had expressed interest in an ooc post to do plotting for the hippest party of the year, and I figured hey, I'm procrastinating at work, why not throw one up? (That said, please let me know if I'm stepping on any toes!) As per the calendar:

"Everything in the drabwurld stops for Samhain, and this year it will pass from the 25th to the 30th, each new day simply an extension of a misted, starry night, devoid of sun or moon! All feuds are forgotten over Samhain in favor of avoiding the Black Shuck instead, whose shall prowl the drabwurld in search of spirits who have escaped him. His power is so immense that to make his hunting easier, he has altered the manner of the world for these nights; a single step might unwittingly take one out of their room in a castle to a remote forest, from one coast to another... anywhere in the drabwurld. It is custom that all wear masks and behave differently so that they are not made his targets, and all folk, from the loftiest kings to the lowest servants, engage in revelry. All crimes committed in this time are pardoned. Many NPCs (including the monarchs!) will be engaged in this event, and Black Shuck himself will walk among the revelers! At the end of this festival, characters wind up wherever on the map they desire to be."

So! Five days of masked fun and neutrality, along with rubbing elbows with the NPCs and a free pass to commit crime! Also a big scary dog and accidental teleportation.

For ease, here's a handy little form! I like forms.
<b>Player:</b> <b>Character:</b> <b>Outfit:</b> Have one planned? Need some assistance, either ICly or OOcly? Just want to share pretty pictures? (Please link pictures to help on loading times!) <b>Activities:</b> Are they going to be cutting the rug? A wallflower? Spiking the drinks? Committing crime? Adamantly refusing to acknowledge that a party is happening absolutely everywhere? <b>Other:</b> Anything else because I am forgetful!

So! Look for dance partners, partners-in-crime, someone to make out with behind a bush, or someone to go exploring with while the world is altered and it's easy! But most of all, have fun!

Player: Fastback
Character: Javik
Outfit: Yeah, I have no idea. Besides the comedy option of throwing a sheet over him for spooky ghost, I'm open to suggestions.
Activities: Actively avoiding having fun because he's allergic to it. Get some alcohol in him and he'll loosen up! He'll try to get away from it, but I would LOVE for him to dance with some people! If pets are allowed at this party his two spacedog varren will probably be around to terrorize the local population and steal your dinner.

House would ttly throw a sheet over Javik. He'd even cut the appropriate number of eyeholes ;p

[notavirtue]

That's because he's a true friend.

And House is in charge of making sure Javik gets drunk!

[huge_egomd]

He is indeed the bestest kind of friend. And he will definitely make Javik get his drink on.

[notavirtue]

Maybe Javik can get a tux and a cane and go as House. No one would ever be able to tell them apart!

[huge_egomd]

rofl Do it, Javik. House would be both annoyed and impressed

[notavirtue]

Not that he'd try to act the part... but wearing a tux probably counts as a costume because he's dressed as a primitive! Fool proof! Move along, Black Shuck.

[extramural]

ahahaha ARIADNE CAN HELP HIM GET A COSTUME IF YOU WOULD LIKE

also she will make him dance with her at least once

[notavirtue]

YES PLEASE that would be fantastic, he literally only ever wears his armor and bioware was too fucking cheap to give him an outfit other than 'now it's black instead of red'

That would fabulous, she'll be so fancy in that dress :D

[boutant]

she will let him have veto rights but only SOME veto rights. ... and she'll probably have him wear gloves and be like "no you really don't want to see drunk memories probably"

mental image of the varren darting between them while they dance lskdgh

[notavirtue]

He'll just find some nice bathroom to pass out in, it's cool.

Bad dogs! >:[ (it will be the cutest oh my gosh)

[boutant]

javik if you pass out at parties you get genitalia drawn on your face don't you know ANYTHING

best spacedogs :3 (eeeee yes)

[notavirtue]

House drew extra eyes on his head last time he got drunk, it's the perfect canvas

So what if we put him in an old school tuxedo? He'd crab about the lack of armor, but he's never happy anyways haha

[boutant]

eyes =/= dicks

oohhh, fancy javik c: what about a mask? :|a

[notavirtue]

Tell House to step up his game then :I

Given the chance I go for gaudy feathery shit. Maybe peacock feathers, because heavens knows he needs to look like he has more eyes lmao. Otherwise I'm open to suggestion.

[boutant]

yells at house from across the map

lmsdkg ALL THE FEATHERS AND EYES. do you want to go with a specific color?

[notavirtue]

Probably just the standard blue/green! He sucks at blending in anyways haha

[ziggyzoggy]

Sheet must have four eyeholes. It is law. :| (How do the spacedogs feel about pranks? :|a)

[notavirtue]

There's no escaping the ghost sheet, Shepard's will is law. (probably confused??)

[ziggyzoggy]

(wow i can't believe i wrote that |D no but srsly, javik should come join him; they can egg caer glaem.

and by "egg" i mean leave eggs in random hidden places. :3a)

[notavirtue]

He'd probably have to have a significant amount of booze in him to do anything like that haha (team up with House, get him drunk!). Vol'jin could always offer to take the varren out for some fresh air... in Gaer Glaem... where they can pee on things and tear up the fancy upholstery...

But yeah these two need to hang out at some point anyways!

/introduces his friends to mom, insists they dance with her

[notavirtue]

You're a weird kid, Maglor.

ask her if we can have sleepover!!

[bythewaves]
