"Well, I'll do a lot of testing on the samples anyway, and if they're not good for mixing, I'll give up on it. But even if I have to, I'd still like to try fixing your wings. Getting some use out of all the stuff I'm researching except for silly costume parties would be great."Julie, everyone's nth favorite succubus, by Gulaghar.

For anyone in plots run by me, know that I always tailor solutions to those in the plot. The answer may not be obvious, but it's there, and doable by the displayed abilities of the present characters. If you need help or hints, I'll try to be available to provide them.

Re: Geneviève's Spoooky Castle Spooktacular!
Katrina and Keiko follow along happily enough, and Keiko is quite excited
We have a maze back home, too, and it can get really confusing 'cause the bushes are all in pots there's this conveyor thingy that you can't really see but it can move them around and the gardeners love moving them so just when you think you have it memorized it will be changed. And the controls are in the gazebo in the middle so if you can beat your friends there you can mess with them by moving the bushes while they're still inside.

"I'd really appreciate that." Victoria says. "These wings are good for flying." She spreads her wings, though the left one doesn't fully extend.
"She even used to be able to carry me around." Joel attests.~Amor Vincit Omnia~I have a Youtube Channel

"I expect a lot of the reason for that is Nexus magic. People expect demons and angels and dragons to be able to fly, so it happens. But I don't have any inborn expectations, so it's really hard to make something sensible work. The wings will still look amazing, even if all I get out of them is a glide. Maybe once you're better, though, you can give me a flight lesson?"Julie, everyone's nth favorite succubus, by Gulaghar.

"How are you supposed to find your way like that? You'd be so dizzy with walls moving around behind you and all."
They come to the first choice of passages. Continuing straight leads into a dark hedgeway shrouded with cobwebs. Turning to the right leads to an apparently empty path through the greenery, and that's where Anchor is turning already.

Re: Geneviève's Spoooky Castle Spooktacular!
[Grand Hall]
Three newcomers enter the castle together. It is unlikely anyone will recognize them as members of a local rock band, Reflex Inside Dysfunction, or RID. Patti Vega leads them, both in the band and through the door. She dressed in a pink dress and a huge realistic pink wig, or she actually has huge pink hair. The large rose gemstone embedded in the star on her belly completes the Rose Quartz costume.
On her arm apparently being dragged is Alex Zullenberg, drummer and technical MacGyver for the band. He has a much less realistic wig/bald cap combo going on, but his white tank top and jean shorts look like he has used them before. He has a old beat up acoustic guitar strapped to his back to complete his Mr. Universe outfit.
Veneelak Seliah breaks the theme. The only non-human of the three she stands shorter than both of them. She is a humanoid with a long neck with small air sacks visible at the base. Her hair is buzzed short, thin and blond. Her eyes are bigger than your average human with an odd mix of green and blue. Her pale green skin is contrasted by the bright red of her dress. The arrowhead shaped insignia pinned on her chest should be familiar to anyone versed in classic earth sci-fi. Her costume looks very well made and fits her like it was tailored for her.
"Alright guys when mingling remember to mention our gig. And Ven try and have some fun."
"I have fun." Ven mumbles like she has heard this too many times before.Check out My Writing

Sana, now with the hood of her ninja costume pulled up, approaches the trio.
"Hello. Welcome to the party."
She realizes that sounds like she's the hostess or something.
"That wasn't intended to convey any official status I have. I'm just terrible at starting conversations."

That's OK, Patti gives a huge smile to the hooded ninja. "That is fine, unofficial welcomes are the best. Much better than stuffy official ones. That is a great ninja costume by the way. I'm Patti, Alex here is my Mr. Universe for the night, and that is Ven."
"Hey nice to meet you." Alex says tearing his eyes away from exploring the huge hall. Ven gives a little wave.Check out My Writing

"See I was lucky, I had Ven make mine she is good at stuff like that." Ven can't blush but if you know her well enough you would know the increased speed her air sacs start to pump at is basically the same thing. "Yeah actually we are all in a band together.

Alex raises his hand with a grin. "That was mine. I have hundreds of band I have doodled down at some point. We voted on this one."
Ven finally speaks up in Sana's presence. "I always liked it because everyone is a little dysfunctional in their own way."
"And everyone is reflective." Alex says finishing the thought.Check out My Writing

Re: Geneviève's Spoooky Castle Spooktacular!
"Ah. That makes sense."
Sana pulls back her hood, revealing lavender hair- somewhere along the line the ponytail came undone- and a pale face, along with elven ears.
Gotta think of a conversation topic....

Re: Geneviève's Spoooky Castle Spooktacular!
"A tour? Sure...."
After retreating from Cait, Sana wandered for a while, so she has a general knowledge of the party area.
"So, this is the Grand Hall. As Alex mentioned, there's food. Mostly meat and carbohydrates, as well as drinks."
Sana then indicates the throne where Geneviève sits.
"That's the hostess. I don't know her name."
Next is the row of arches.
"In there is the Gallery. It's more peaceful, and I've heard that magic protects it from attacks. Through there, you can get to a couple of outside areas."Spoiler

"Meat and carbs are right up my alley I am going to skip the tour for that." Alex says heading over to the tables with food with a wave goodbye.
"Oh outside areas sound nice. So tell me more about yourself. I love your hair by the way." Patti says leading towards the gallery. Ven follows a few steps behind obviously used to Patti taking the lead.Check out My Writing

[The Ice Garden - 5 to 6]
Laela barely even pays her mom's warning words any mind. She's a girl on a mission, and that mission is to eat candy until she's sick!
When the group gets to the cauldrons, Cora and Laela waste no time practically falling into them to grab fistfuls of candy. Bastion, however, is more reserved. "What kinds do you like?" He asks Landon. The boy speaks quietly. It's a wonder he's ever heard over the girls.
[The Ice Garden - 3 to 4]
"But I'm a bad guy too!" Jillian tugs on Cern's arm, much more enthusiastic about this than he is. "We c'n be on the same team!"
[The Ice Garden - Adults]
Sakura giggles. "Sounds adorable. I'm sure they'd get along just fine with ours. How many cousins does Tuskfang have?"
Meanwhile, the less independent children aren't just sitting perfectly still. Laerana is starting to make a fuss in the stroller, and her parents know well that she can easily set Cassie off too. Little Lucy, in her racecar jumpsuit, has circled around behind the adults on her hands and knees, still pushing her toy car. She's so intent on her private game that she runs right into Sszinyon's foot! She cranes her head all the way back to look him.

"I like sour things." Landon answers, edging up to the cauldron to see if the girls have overturned any new varieties. "What do you guys like?"

Sszinyon flicks back the edge of his robes and stares down at the child, frowning, all red face paint and spikes. He blinks a bit, before slowly taking a large step back to get out of her way.~Amor Vincit Omnia~I have a Youtube Channel

"Well.... my name is Sana Valtoris. My hair has always been this way; it's an elf thing. I grew up in the Nexus. I used to be an adventurer, then I
took an arrow to the knee
got injured in a fight. Now I can barely run or jump, and I was the group's rogue/illusionist, so that was the end of my career. I settled down Inside with the loot from our quests, and.... let's see, what did the others do after that? Lanjin is in the Hunting Grounds, he says hello to Lanjinbot every once in a while.... Jasper moved to Riverside, last I heard he took up politics... and Tharis & Galeria got married. They have a Home now."

"Oh don't worry about talking too much. I love a good talker. Though I don't mind the shy ones either, right Ven?" She smiles at the green skin woman who sticks her tongue out in response. "My story is probably pretty boring compared to the life of an adventurer. I grew up around here and have studied music pretty much my whole life. Ven here is the interesting one of the two of us. She is a star hopper for real, not just tonight."
"Bah, I wouldn't say star hopper. I grew up on a different world is all. We were mostly farmers or priests hardly anything interesting." Ven explains leaving off that she was born on a third world. "And Patti is being to modest, I have heard some great stories about her time studying music in college hardly boring."Last edited by McBish; 2016-10-26 at 05:57 PM.

The group exits the Gallery.
"Sooooo. Off to one side we have the Poison Gardens. I wouldn't recommend touching the plants. It appears to have been designed for calm and quietness, as well as for couples seeking.... 'alone time'." Sana smiles.
"On the other side, we have the Ice Garden; the child-friendly portion of the castle.
Finally, we have the Spoooky Maze. That is the adventure I was referring to. It is said that if one can overcome the challenges in the maze, there is treasure in the middle.

Ooh, I should go ask Riss if she can spin a map out of silk with her new arms. Toodles!"

We could keep talking, I could tell you more about myself, you could talk more about yourself. Maybe I could tell you embarrassing secrets about Ven."

We have a few nieces that are actually close to our age, but there's weird time... stuff involved. Catgirl Jupiter makes a vaguely wibbly-wobbly hand motion. But does that mean you know Uncle Matthew and Auntie Angela?
