wrfmlogsarchiveWho: Anyone and everyone, including some unexpected guests
What: Halloween party, oh yeah!
When: Saturday night
Where: Destiny Islands
Selphie adjusted the hat of her witch costume and surveyed her work. Well, okay, maybe Tidus and Wakka had helped out a little, but this was her idea to begin with! Mentally, she went down the list.
Decorations - check! There were ghosts and bats hanging from the trees, along with the occasional hung skeleton and a vampire or two lurking in the shadows - all fake, of course, but who cared? This was for fun! There was also a cutout of a werewolf up on one of the decks, made to look like it was howling at the moon. She took a peek at it; it would look great in silhouette!
Background noise - check! The boys had set up some soundtracks of scary noises for the background, and set them to play on repeat for the night. She counted it off on her fingers: there were supposed to be ghoulish wails, bat noises, the occasional werewolf howl... She shuddered violently as a shriek rang out, and gave a devilish grin. They'd done better than she'd expected. This party was going to blow everyone away!
Music - check! There was a stereo set up to play some Halloween music, just for today. A pile of CDs sat on the table next to it, waiting for someone to pick one and put it in to play. She trotted over and picked up the first one, but didn't play it yet. That could wait until more people were here.
Food - check! There were two tables set up that were almost completely covered in food. There was a bowl of gum ball eyes - Selphie plucked out a green one and chewed on it happily - and bowls of chocolate, one with a hand sticking out of it that was supposed to grab you when you went for a piece. She couldn't wait to see their reactions when it did! There were cookies with all kinds of festive Halloween shapes, from black cats to witch hats to pumpkins, and... deviled eggs decorated like little devils? Whose idea was that? Well, she decided, if they were the same person that had done those spider cupcakes, they weren't too bad.
Drinks - check! There were coolers decorated like treasure chests spread out around the party area, filled with all kinds of drinks. She would have liked if they creaked when they opened or something fun like that, but that was something they hadn't gotten to do, unfortunately. Maybe next year.
Bonfire - here, she hesitated. It wasn't quite dark yet, so they only had the firewood so far. She was really looking forward to lighting it, but... she didn't have a way to light it. Tidus or Wakka were supposed to bring matches, but they'd left to get into costume or something. She just hoped they came through.
Still, everything else was perfect! And with everyone coming back, they'd have a blast tonight, she decided cheerfully. She just hoped they all had great costumes... Hey, that was an idea! Maybe they could have a costume contest later on! Grinning, she made a mental note and went to sit down as she waited for someone else to show up.

Date: 2009-11-01 12:41 am (UTC)But, so it was that he'd allowed himself to be dragged to the party and no he hadn't let anyone pick his costume for him. He'd gone with something fairly simple. Simple in that he'd simply replaced his normal short sleeved jacket with a long coat that, he realized now, had somehow been cut to fit him like his coat from the Organization had. It also zipped up. But it was off white with a red lined hood, red checkered strips in place of the black ones on his other jacket and large red checkers on the hems of the sleeves, the edge of hood and the bottom hem. The drawstrings for the hood did have some nice little beads on them, in silver with an image of the element they provided a resistance to, fire and ice in this case (so he'd hit the Moogles up something useful, sue him). His one accessory for the costume was a staff, a real one, not a cheap costume accessory type thing. He figured if he was going to do it, he might as well do it right.
Besides which, he suspected the guise of a white mage might possibly make for a decent disguise on some worlds. Hence, the coat wasn't a cheap costume either, but decently made and actually kind of warm.
At the moment, he was wandering around with the hood up. If anyone cared to look him over, they'd realize it was him since he still had his normal sneakers and jeans and he was still wearing his zip up shirt with the Thorn charm on the zipper pull. But, if they didn't think look him over, his face was well enough obscured that he wouldn't be recognized right away.
