Parking in front of the Delaran house took this party guest a while - there was another car in front of her mud-caked all-terrain vehicle, in which there was a... green thing clearly visible in the back seat. It looked like it was arguing with whoever was driving.
Nonetheless, it was soon enough that a pair of polished black boots clocked their way into the house. There was a rapier at this person's waist, which could be brandished well by equally black gloves... however, the overall effect was up for debate. This person was noticeably short, partially due to how there was nothing above a tattered black cloak. With a smirk hidden by a contraption that would keep her head concealed under it, the shortest headless horseman in the history of all hallow's eves inspected her surroundings.
Tucked in one arm was, of course, the traditional jack-o-lantern replacement head, but something about it seemed... strange. For one, it was very oddly shaped, and it had two stalks that looked all too much like cat ears. Closer inspection would reveal it to be the octopussy chimera Fredmitri, meticulously painted with a pumpkin design. His tentacle-paws were made black, blending in with Mouse's clothing.
And then there was a curious tingle up the horseman's spine... either a ghost had just flew through her, or there was a word game in her presence. A beeline was made for the Shadow Chateau with supernatural swiftness, and the Punny Bones sheet taken to a nearby table. There's already someone in there, though... his face was concealed by a mask reminiscient of Japanese kami. She started to give a friendly nod, but realizing that she didn't have the proper body parts to do so, cheerfully said "Hi."

Aries got out of his little apartment and locked the door. The corridor was decorated with little bats and skeletons which to him, was kind of cute. Finally, after being trapped in the library with nothing but books and more books, it was nice to actually get out to socialise and get some fresh air. Slowly, he made his way down the stairs and started walking. His costume was not at all easy to move about with but at least it beats having to wear a fairy costume.
Dressed as a Satyr, completed with a little devil horns and a pair of fangs, he slowly made his way through the town, towards the destination of the party. Now was the moment when he started thinking why he didn't want to get himself some mode of transport. "Well, don't want to be late" he thought, his feet started going faster.
Aries was relieved when he was able to see the house coming into view. "Wow...it certainly does match the atmosphere" he gave a soft whistle and quickly made his way to the entrance.
"Well, this is it." he mumbled, taking in a deep breath and pushing the front door and stepping. "Urm...I hope you don't mind me joining the party."

A lurch of her stomach helped Natsuki realize that she hadn't eating a single thing all day. Checking her watch, and noticing the distinct lack of people outside, she headed indoors, if anything to warm up a little bit. Entering the house from the back, the Tomb Raider decided to do a little raiding of her own, in the kitchen. Flicking her heavy brown fringe from her stormy gray eyes, she found herself toe to toe with a dashing fireman, complete with suspenders and fantastic hair.
"Quite the snappy outfit you have, Doc," Natsuki giggled, toying with Dr. Kyou's suspender, before gingerly slipping her fingers out, heavily resisting the temptation to snap them and leave a lasting impression. Turning her attention to the drinks, she poured herself a refreshing fruit juice, gulping it almost ravenously. Clearly, the cafe owner was far parched and famished than she thought. "Everything is set up, so now we just get to relax until people start showing up."

Roux entered the living room from elsewhere. The Icy Raeven was dressed in excellent splendor, thanks to Natsuki and her amazing costum-making prowess - as an angel. It wasn't anything specific, but still... if it were possible Roux looked even more handsome than he ever had before.
He wore delicately crafted armor of silver and gold, his bare shoulders and arms slender and pale. His chest was slightly visible from the dipped v of the chest-piece. The gauntlets he wore only really covered the front half of his forearms, and he wore crisp, white linen wraps about his wrists and hands. Suspended above his head in a truely magical fashion one of the strangely crafted Halos that were all the rage throughout Gaia. It was a mystery how they floated above the wearers head that only the craftmaster would ever know.
There was one other addition.. Roux's wings. Soft, silken white down had slowly begun to grow back over them but feathers remained stubborn and refused to grow in. With a bit of careful skill Natsuki had managed to fashion tasteful 'wing-covers' adorned with long, silken white feathers that ruffled and drooped and flowed, making his wings seem white and far larger than they really were.
Overall the effect was quite stunning and Roux very much considered himself the best looking 'angel' ever. He wasn't sure what an angel was, though...
Parfait chirruped excitedly as she saw others entering the room, she'd been instructed by Natsuki to stay at this post.. no trouble there, though. There was plenty to do on her toy-set table! So the little village that Natsuki had originaly made for her was already destroyed.. so what? Parfait sat cheerfuly in the center of destroyed town, some interesting costume-work performed to make her look like a miniature, pinkish Gweezilla.
She snorted in the direction of the people that had just come in and did as Natsuki had taught her...
"Arryaaaaaaa! Screee.." She made sound similar to a small Godzilla movie that she'd been shown and stomped her clawed feet, tail swishing. She wished fervently that she could breath fire, also like the movie Natsuki had shown her.

Sevilin looked around in building fright. This place was too spooky. He whined lowly and hid behind We`rika, gripping the man's jacket nervously.
"Whas wrong?"
"This place is creepy..."
"......... Well i' is Halloween. Besides sea dragons aren' scared of anythin'... If yer gonna be a dragon, ya gotta play th'par'..." We`rika insisted.
Sevilin peaked out from behind his guardian. "...Really?" The little frei frowned in thought before putting on his scary face and charging forth into the unknown and scary.
"Okay jes dun... die or anythin'... Stay where I can find you, I'lla be righ' here...probably..." Tired of holding his two twenty-four packs of beer and not drinking the beer, he set them down on the floor and cracked open one.
Stalking to and fro, Sevilin unknowingly snuck up behind a woman in a red dress. GASP! It was 'the b***h in the red dress'! Oh oh!! "Uhhh..." Sevilin squeaked as he tugged gently on the red fabric. "Are you Miss Wong?"

Aphismet looked up from the couch, spotting a Headless Horseman picking up a Punny sheet. Aph nodded back in response. "Hello," he said. "Welcome to the party." He didn't want to say Welcome to my house, that would be a dead giveaway (If having Rivener floating right next to him wasn't a dead giveaway already). "I assume you don't need a head for these puns... Good luck," Aph added, his voice faking a smile even though his face didn't have to.
Rivener's eyes had been drawn to Roux as they always were, but this time for good reason. The Scorpion's mouth gaped open as he took in the grandiose appearance of the Icy Frei. Riv suddenly felt like an ugly duckling compared to that awe-inspiring vision. He might even be too self-conscious to stand near the blue Raevan...
Lowering his eyelids and donning his best sultry expression, matching his dashing outfit quite perfectly, Riv floated towards the angel. He wasn't that self-conscious it seemed.
"Hello..." he began, removing his hat and bowing like in the old movies. "Roux, you look positively gorgeous." Riv straightened and placed his hat back on with a flourish.

Mouse smiled and nodded at Aphi (though those gestures couldn't be seen), saying "Good luck to you, too. I always love doing these."
And then... someone else entered the room that caused her to make no less than a quadruple-take. He was positively gorgeous. Whoever owned this Raevan was very, very lucky... she couldn't help but wonder: what was the fel essence? The soul? Surely something heavenly, for a creature so pristine and pure...
...wait a minute... that face! Was that... "Roux! Hi! Your costume is awesome," she said, as close to gushing as someone like her can get.
And in case he gets confused, she quickly added, "It's me, Mouse-- see? I brought Mitya," and held out Head-mitri for the roc-turned-angel to see.

((Entrance by Sevilin))
The woman had nearly been to the entrance to the dining room when she felt the most curiuos sensation of someone pulling on her dress. Given the dipping and form-fitting nature of the gown, it was slightly alarming, prompting her to turn on her sharp heels and regard that which had decided to test the elasticity of the crimson fabric. Green eyes widened just a touch, slender brows arching at the sight before her; there was something large, blue and decidedly pointy squeaking at her. It took Alex a full minute of silence before she realized that not only was her giant admirer Sevilin, but he didn't recognize her!
Seashell lips curved in a cocky smile, chin lifting in a playful manner. "Maybe. Who's asking?" she purred, slender hands resting on her hips. "My, that's a big tail you've got there," she complimented the Frei, quoting a slight variation from the game Ada was from, "What a vicious sea creature. What can I do for you?"
Part of Alex felt somewhat...cruel, for playing along with Sevilin, but the other part was gleeful in seeing her fellow video game playing partner. There was no harm in it, right?

After parking her car, Ebony slowly made her way up to the home she was becoming all too familiar with these days. Twice a week was it now? Or maybe just the one, but it was every week unless she had something extremely important to take care of, but still...she was beginning to feel like an intruder of some sort being there all the time. And tonight was no exception, even though she’d been invited to come if she could. It sure was different to visit at night as opposed to her morning ones. Somehow the house seemed more powerful in its eeriness and truly looked more like a haunted house than it should at this time.
She stopped just outside the front door to adjust her costume, as it was a Halloween party after all. It might have been a little cliché and perhaps a bit ironic for her to be dressed as a cat. Although it was more like a Catwoman-ish outfit as a black sleeveless top and black pants clung snug to her body, her top slightly revealing her flat mid-section as something of a tease. The only things that made her even register as a cat were the tan ears, paws, tail and the faint tell-tale whiskers she’d painted on her face. None would ever guess the inspiration behind the costume as well as it should be.
Ebony raised a hand to knock, but realized the door was left unlocked to allow guests to enter. And thus she did, but not without mentally noting that it was probably one of the most unwise decisions her ‘pupil’ had yet to make in her eyes. But she would not lecture him on it as he had enough to deal with tonight. She flicked her hair out of her face, now black rather than her normal violet hue, as she entered the living room, all wonderfully dressed up in its own frightfully delightful way.

Aries slowly made his way to the living room, more people filling into the house and that made him slightly uncomfortable. As he went into the room, he noticed a few people are already there. "This is starting to get interesting"he thought and went towards the table which the answer sheets lies. Picking one up, he looked around and gave an awkward smile. "Hope you guys don't mind.."
After that was done, he started filling the answers in, scratching his head once in a while.

Roux's large icy eyes turned to Rivener, a slow, smile curled his lips upward. For a moment it seemed entirely too prideful and concieted to seem angelic, but then it was gone. Roux extended a hand to Rivener so the other Frei could take it, it seemed the right kind of motion to do.
Gorgeous? Why yes, he knew.
"Delicious yes?"
Roux turned as the strange... headless.. thing spoke to him, faintly recognizing the voice. He gave a small perk of interest as he realized it was Mouse, and out-right smiled when she held out Mitya. He reached out to touch the jack-oct-p***y's ear. "'Lo have yes me Mitya mine." He seemed very eager to share this information, half looking toward Rivener. He expected the other Frei to translate, as the Dark Raeven had gotten awefully adept at understanding him.
Parfait huffed, plopping down on her rear. Well fine.. they weren't going to pay her attention, she'd build her own towns to destroy!
...Except she lacked oposable thumbs. So instead the small Gwee settled for picking up a toy car in her claws and tossing it around, giving small, snorty growls at it and making an odd, muffled "Mee mee!" Sounds that were supposed to be immitations of a car-horn.
If anything she was at least very good at mimicing sounds.

When he heard the strange yet adorable sounds, Aries turned his head towards where is was coming. It was a cute little Gwee. He gave a small and went towards it, lowering his body slightly to eye level with it. "Well, hello little Gwee. My my, that's a frightening costume." he said with a soft giggle and reached out, arranging the buildings into a city around the dragon, he sat and watched what the Gwee would do.

Excited for yet another Lab event, Jae confidently stood in front of the house. She wondered if anyone would recognize her though, she felt somewhat ridiculous, but she couldn't help but want to dress up as Yuffie in her costume from Advent Children. She had even gotten a hair-cut for the role!
Looking around, she hoped to spot many familiar faces throughout the party!

The little sea dragon looked up at Ada with big starstruck blue eyes, clutching his tail in his hands nervously. "Uhmm..." One of Sevilin's ponytails fell in his face and he batted back with a few sputtering words. "Uhmm..." He started again, fumbling under his collar for something. "Can I... get yer uhmm autograph?" He held out a little black book We`rika had loaned him (it already had quite a few autographs already as Sevilin looked through it) and hoisted it in the air.

Aphismet had snorted something indecipherable at Mouse, but was thankfully saved from having to make any small talk by the Ice Frei's appearance. Aphismet had never been so happy to see Roux. He'd pull all attention, so that Aphi might be left in peace. The man did look up however when a cat woman entered the house, pausing to flip her hair. Aph grinned under his mask and got up, putting his completed Pun Game sheet into the box.
"Why why, aren't you looking the part," he said playfully as he walked towards Ebony. "I didn't think you'd come. Glad you could make it."
Rivener took the hand that was offered, more than happy to be the angel's escort for the evening. He suddenly wished he'd have dressed as a devil, it would have been very fitting, the pair of them. As it was, attention was taken from Rivener as a strange Headless person came towards them.
Rivener tilted his head as a pumpkin was offered to Roux energetically, but after a short moment Riv realized it was actually Mitya. Riv grinned. When Roux spoke, Rivener knew his duty and turned to the Horseman, translating and trying to hold back his own questions to Roux.
"He says he has a Mitya of his own... When did you get that?" he asked, unable to hold it in any longer, beaming in happiness for the Icy one. "I've not seen it, where is it?"
