See you at the Black Parade!

[imaglyphwitch]

[Video opens up and its the Disaster house...isn't it? Or maybe its Halloween somehow making its way into the house. There are skeletons and zombie facsimiles all over the front of the house, ravens and colors of orange and black all over the top portion. Someone is very much using their ability to fly to make sure the house looks as complete as possible.

The backyard has a faux cemetery because of course it does, and currently putting up tombstones is one Luz Noceda, in a cat skull mask, and she waves to all of you].

Hey! Sooo...in light of getting back into my regular sleeping pattern, I learned that we have something like a certain festive holiday back home, except its all about hiding your face! There's folklore that reminds me a little of Samhain with the whole keeping away bad spirits, so I figure: why not get into the spirit, and meld that sentiment with Halloween from back home?

So over at the house I'll be doing my best to keep things creepy: eyeballs, fake blood, creepy music, the whole deal. Kinda helps with the ambiance, and so far? Nothing really bad has happened yet!

Granted, gotta keep it that way too! Part of this is for the fun, part is for, well, you never know? In case spooks around here aren't just made up.

[Look, she had a whole ordeal on a boat with dead bodies. Letting her naivete fool her is just dumb at this point].

Hope I see you guys getting into the spirit too! Do you all have a version of Halloween where you come from?

[schoolingfish]

No. Not right now, but sometimes after a while I get a headache and kind of feel like I need to throw up for a while when the wobbliness wears off.

[imaglyphwitch]

[Oh. Oh NO].

And you said that just eating does that to you? Is it...any kind of food, or...?

[schoolingfish]

Yeah...and drink, too. It's weird, but I think I'm fine. It's not too bad, although it's kind of annoying when I want to do a thing.

[imaglyphwitch]

Huh. That's...well, I'm not really sure what that is, but if you think you're going to be fine, I guess proceed?

But let's do this slow, so it's not too overwhelming, ok?

[schoolingfish]

Yeah, sounds good.

[Now, what were they about to do again? He glances at the pumpkin. She hadn't shown him what the pumpkin was for, had she?]

So...you were going to show me the thing with the pumpkin?

[imaglyphwitch]

Oh right! Jack O-lantern! This part is actually pretty fun, but messy!

[Luz demonstrated how to carve one, and showed him all of the stuff he'd need to obtain to make the job less messy, including papers and spoons].

Think you can handle that?

[schoolingfish]

Yeah! Should I go get my own stuff, or just use yours when you're done?

[He means papers and spoons, but 'stuff' covers it well enough.]

[imaglyphwitch]

Nope, I've got plenty for both of us! I come prepared!

[Luz had pretty much gleamed what he meant]!

[schoolingfish]

Oh! Perfect! And yeah, I can handle doing the pumpkin thing!

[imaglyphwitch]

Great! I'm gonna carve a few more! If you need any help, let me know!

[And its back to creating pumpkin monstrosities! YAY]!
