"I took the stairs up, actually," Emily says amusedly, "Been like this all my life, though. I was taller than a normal adult by the time I turned seven." she'll take some of those delicious looking deviled eggs, popping one into her mouth, "The 'looming specter of death' thing was just too good to pass up this year, since i finally found a robe my size."
"How about you? How'd you decide on your costume?"Last edited by Halae; 2019-09-28 at 12:17 AM.

[A Devil's Thanks]
Ilpholin's withering gaze bores into the back of Sekhmet's head as she turns around. At least until Sekhmet trips and falls. Lolth below she was being tested.
Ilpholin steps up behind Sekhmet and puts a hand upon the shoulder, gripping maybe a little stronger than necessary. "Leave it. The spiderbots will attend to the mess." Indeed, she beckons and two converge to discretely clean up the spill for Sekhmet.

"Oh, uh, alright." Sekhmet stands up. The tight grip on her shoulder says something is amiss for the hostess. "Is something wrong?"

Fourth Floor
The woman takes a look at the display of food and drink, and after watching others for a bit will get a large mug to just fill up with cheese fondue as well as another for water. "Why is Bubble Fox so far from territory-home? And you smell...sick?" She asks after a bit, watching Gara in the corner of her eyes and wary. "Scent is different. Hiding maybe?"

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
Fourth Floor
Gara is busy taking a plate of sugary things from the table. She actually looks surprised at the question.
"Oh, you know what I am? No one ever seems to know what I'm talking about when I tell them. But uh, I'm fine. I'm from a different uh, colony. We're a little different there than the ones you must know." she says, stuffing a marshmallow into her mouth. It's a little embarrassing, being told how you smell.Spako Highclaws by Ceika.

Ilpholin removes her hand as Sekhmet stands back up. "No," she replies. Why would there be? The spiderbots are taking care of it. Maybe she just has resting loathing face.

"Uh, okay. Thanks again. Bye!" Sekhmet leaves Ilpholin and heads back to get a fresh plate of food, still unaware of the reason behind the loathing she received.Awesome avatar (Kothar, paladin of Tlacua) by Linkele!

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
Sekhmet turns to the approaching Elf, surprised. "Thank y... Wait, what?" She has no clue what he's talking about whatsoever. "I, uh, don't know what you mean."

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
[To the hostess]
The man in the hood with clouds notice his chance and slips through the people approching the hostess.
"Good evening Miss Schar'cha?" he says a bit unsure if he spelled it out right. He makes a slight bow as he greets her. "It all looks really nice around here, can't wait to see what you have arranged for some scares." As he bows up again he notices the belly. She might feel how he thinks about a polite way to know if she is pregnant. He did saw her, but his alias he is here doesn't. So he stares at her out of the one hole in his mask.Grammer is my declared deadly enemy!

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
Technically that's Half-Elf, but his costume keeps the non-elfy features covered well enough. He pats his sword's hand-guard like it's been a good puppy-dog.

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
With Sekhmet's luck, this is probably still when Ilpholin is staring at her.
"Relax. She isn't going to hurt us while the party lasts." Nadas advises, piling still more soul cakes and pretzel spiders onto his plate. "You really didn't know?"

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
"No, I, uh, just heard there was party." Sekhmet doesn't look reassured. "I saw the hate in her eyes. I thought I was imagining it! Everyone's been so accepting here." She then realizes something about Nadas' wording. "Wait, she won't hurt us? Are you a, uh, like me?" The wording of that last sentence would be easier if Sekhmet was sure of what she is.

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
"If it helps, she's the most hateful person I know. Hardly anyone is like that."
Nadas carefully puts an entire little cake in his mouth and eats it up before nodding to Sekhmet.
"A draegloth, is the term, though a peculiar one. Mother was a terrible demon. It's such a bother."

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
"Can't say I'm thrilled to be what I am either. But I ha- feel obligated to ask - how does one stop being a tiefling?" Nadas has an idea, based on his own experience, but he doesn't want to lead Sekhmet to jump to conclusions.

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
How disappointing. Sekhmet, don't you realize that this is a valuable opportunity to gather data about tieflings?
"Oh, uh, sorry. Forget it then. Your costume's ... pretty good." Nadas says a bit lamely, positioning himself to depart the banquet table one way or another.

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
"Heh, thanks. These gloves are a huge pain though."
I actually wonder where Nadas such a costume. Did he steal it from a costume store? Or worse, from an unlucky trick-or-treating child? Did he borrow it from a friend? Is that actually his real face, with a minor illusion to make it look like a rubbery mask?
"Oh, where are my manners?" You never had any manners. "I'm Nadas Xabaresh Chaeron. Who do I have the pleasure of meeting?" Why are you talking like this?

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
Don't worry about it, Sekhmet. You have no idea how much trouble it was for him to learn his own name.
"Like the sun goddess? Cool." He actually does think it's cool, so doesn't bother dressing up the words. Goodness, who knows if 'Nadas' means anything in particular?
"Care to check out the rest of the party?"
There's a spooky fake-forbidden doorway over there.
But don't feel obligated to; Nadas could stay here eating tiny Spooktober cakes all evening. Hasn't had anything so delicious in a long time.

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
"Sun goddess?" Sekhmet doesn't know her own namesake. The goddess thing is (almost) entirely news to her. "Sure, let's look around." It'll get her out of sight of the hostess, and that's definitely a good thing. She's still afraid Ilpholin will change her mind about not killing her.

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
Of Idols and Princes
Another dynamic duo of guests arrives, eager to take sweets and kick back!
Although those intentions aren't terribly obvious, if the first of the pair is anything to go by. Stepping forward somewhat hesitantly in knee-high boots of red and gold, Fidelia looks a little apprehensive. It certainly can't be fears about how well she looks in her costume, can it? I mean, sure, the cobalt blue skirt she's wearing leaves a bit more leg visible than usual, but that physique of hers is a perfect fit when it comes to pulling off the princess of Themyscira! Although admittedly, Wonder Woman isn't known for having any facial scarring. Nor a painful-looking mess of them stretching out from under the back of her armored corset. Not that it ruins the look or steals the show nearly as much as the squire thinks they do, adding a bracelet over one of her bracers and entering the [Fourth Floor]."Are we living a life that is safe from harm? Of course not, we never are. But that's not the right question. The question is: are we living a life that is worth the harm?"

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
Something Sekhmet remembers, as if in a dream, floats back into her head. A voice. "My little goddess of war." Realization visibly dawns on her face. She's never heard of this place, but maybe her parents had. "Oh, uh, I see." She's not sure whether to be pleased to finally understand her very unusual name, or to be appalled at the fact that she's named after a heathen goddess in her capacity for war, although it seems she was a goddess of some good things as well.

Re: Spooktober Spooktacular MMXIX
[Half-Elf and a Gator]
"Ah." Holly nods. "I see."
Looking down at her own Magtok-esque costume, the half-elf tries to remember what made her decide it. To be honest, it was mostly on impulse and was convenient because his metal side matches which side of her face the scars are on. "I had a really nice purple dress I wanted to try on," she says, "but couldn't think of any good occasion to wear it until now. The hard part was finding flowers that looked good with it, however."
She's referencing the flowers woven into her hair.
[Well-provisioned food table]
"Oh, yeah? I saw a couple of them..." Holly turns around, looking for the spiders. "...somewhere? around here? I could've sworn they were everywhere, but I guess maybe they have other things to do?"
