the funk of forty thousand years

[imaskellington.livejournal.com]

[And just like last year, the main room has been cleared out for a Grand Halloween Ball! There's music playing, food for every monster/animal/zombie you are dressed up as, and a few dancing skeletons to liven up the mood.

Also. Don't go to the dance floor alone.

Because you will find yourself dancing the "Thriller" automatically :}

Kiddies, feel free to go trick or treating!]

HAPPY HALLOWEEN, EVERYONE!

[Okay no, that's not good, she's going to lean down in front of him.]

Open your mouth.

[should he say 'aaah,' Miss Dr. Riku lady? he's going to try anyway.]

[dawnrise]

[Is the taffy visible? If so she'll try to pull it out, but if not...]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[it's probably visible, yes; however, reaching in there might make him panic and accidentally bite. those little fangs he's sporting would probably hurt.]

[dawnrise]

[Well, she can deal with that. Her only concern is making sure he gets that out.]

Hang on, Sora.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[if by hanging on Riku means flailing and trying to worm away once she reaches in for the taffy, Sora has totally got that covered.]

[dawnrise]

[Puts her other hand on his shoulder to keep him still, frowning.]

Sora. Let me get it out.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[well, he'll try his best -- he just watches Riku, eyes welling up with tears.]

[dawnrise]

[Just a second, hang on -- there, she's got it.]

It's out.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[at least he didn't bite too hard? Sora whimpers.]

[dawnrise]

[Riku's not worried about that right now.]

Sora?

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[Sora takes that as an invitation for a hug, which is exactly what he could use, so he tries to scramble into Riku's arm to hide his face in her shoulder.]

[dawnrise]

[She can definitely provide hugs, and picks him up for a careful one.]

Hey. You're okay.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

I choked on my Halloween taffy..

[he's making it sound like he's single-handedly canceled Halloween. Sora just smothers his face in her shoulder.]

[dawnrise]

A little, but it's out. You're okay now.

[Pats his back, trying to be comforting.]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

I still get candy, right? You're not gonna take it away from me?

[dawnrise]

Of course not. You just need to eat it a little slower, alright?

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Okay.

[now where did his pumpkin pail go? he must have accidentally thrown it in his flailing.]

[dawnrise]

[Whoops. She'll look around on the ground, nudging things with her boot to see if it's nearby. Did... did the jack-o-lantern eat it?]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Ah! There it is!

[waves frantically at the pail -- it is lying upside down on the floor and .. scooting along on the floor away from them, as if something were underneath.]

[dawnrise]

[...... steps over to poke it with her foot.]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[the pail wobbles a little as whatever it is underneath there jumps in surprise, then it skitters off in a hurry.]

[dawnrise]

[Oh no you don't. She's setting Sora down so they can follow it.]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Come back, candy! I still gotta eat you!

[... maybe that's why it's running. Sora gives chase!]

[dawnrise]

[It's a possibility. She'll follow along, wondering what exactly is going on.]
