[EVENT] 'Tis the Spooky Season...
Autumn is drawing on in the Velvet Room and its environs. The days are colder, the nights are crisper, leaves are a riot of colour ready to fall from the trees. And (besides all the pumpkin spice popping up for some reason) that means only one thing: Hallowe'en!
As the season approaches, you may undergo a mysterious transformation. Perhaps you wake up with wings, or hooves, or gills! Or perhaps your transformation will change more, go deeper... perhaps to your very soul. Who can tell? You might wake up as an animal, or a mythological creature. Or as anything at all.
Transformations will reverse on the morning of November 1st.Probably.
In the meantime, Destinyland is celebrating the holiday. Cheerful Jack-o'-Lantern Shadows have set up on street corners, handing out flyers advertising the park's seasonal festivities. In the days leading up to the 31st, Destinyland will host all the usual fun: Hallowe'en games, Trick or Treat for the babies (and the not-so-babey), the Gorb fortune teller, Shadow-run food stalls serving spooky meals and treats, and, of course, the haunted house with its array of friendly, candy-giving Shadows. Or maybe they're not so friendly.
On the night of Hallowe'en itself, there will be a parade at the park and a grand party out in the main square with food, music, and plenty of space, though characters are not obliged to attend. However, if you wish to show off your new form, see what transformations have been wrought on your fellow guests, or simply take the chance to celebrate, it may be a good opportunity...
Who knows? Perhaps you'll even see some special guests.
[ooc: Welcome to our second Halloween event! This post will serve as a mingle for the duration of the event. Feel free to invite friends to play as guest characters, too! There will be a toplevel, and guest characters are simply whisked into the setting to engage in festivities, with a slight ghostly aura. For an example, see the thread here from last year!]

yeah but this interaction is lowkey very interesting lol
"Honestly you are an asshole for interrupting me." He huffs as he turns away and crosses his arms to his chest. "An additional little quirk of yours is that you are also-annoying! I stick to a moral code in a world where things actually matter, thank you very much."
It is, and no doubt awkward the next time they interact post Halloween.
"Maybe, but I have the higher moral ground than you. Also your attempts at insulting me suck."
He'll have to try harder than that.
I am backkkk (still gonna be slow tho)
He lets the sarcasm linger for a beat before continuing, his tone sharper now. "But see, here’s the funny part: standing on the higher moral ground doesn’t mean much when it’s still covered in mud, Ren. You’re out here making decisions for everyone, imposing your ‘code,’ like you’re the arbiter of right and wrong. You interrupt people’s choices, wave your morality stick around, and somehow think that makes you better? It doesn’t. It just makes you... what’s the word?" He snaps his fingers dramatically. "Ah. Sanctimonious. Look it up in one of your precious books.""
Akira takes a deliberate step closer, the sly grin on his face now edged with an almost dangerous kind of amusement. "And as for my insults? They don’t need to be clever or cutting. The truth tends to hurt enough all on its own." He taps Ren lightly on the chest before throwing him a grin and a mock salute. "Now- do you want to grab some strawberry milkshake and try to cool off, good sir?" He asks- his tone still serious despite the barbed words exchanged between them.
