Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ligeia gave a bright smile to Kat as she handed him a bag, "Thank you, I worked on it all on my own. Earako showed me the best books to learn sewing from." He said, not sure if Kat knew the bat girl.

Ter gave a hissing sound and a roll of his eyes, his brother was so weird... he took the bag from Kat and gave her a nod, "Thankssss." He muttered, he liked her well enough. She gave him a plushy dragon after all! After looking his bag over he then smiled some as he saw that it had his name on it. That made it of course better then all the other bags. Even if they looked same. Now... to score himself some candy! More then Ligeia got and enough so that he could share with Baroness!

She and Vorel were asked to wait at home, Orpheus hoped that some time alone without the Ter's encouraging of her would let the two dragons get used to each other. An attempt at having them make friends. One could only hoped that two such opposite dragons could get along... would make life at home a lot easier.

Orpheus gave a sigh of relief and a smile, Ter had used manners even if he didn't use that many words, "Teh Labtechs seem like they are giving out candy." He told his sons. Ter was immediently slithering off to get some from them.

Valens looked down at the bag, then gave a little sound of delight. Wow! That had worked! Holding the bag up by its handles he waved it back and forth in the air much like one would a flag so that his parents could see it. Lamiah clapped for him happily and made her way over to the little horse boy, "Very good job, did you say thank you to the nice people?"

Valens blinked a couple times then turned his gaze back over to Kat to give her his BEST smile, "Thanks!" He said, lifting a hand to straighten out the crown that seemed to be tilting due to all his active motions.

"Come on, lets go show Daddy the bag." Lamiah said, taking the boys hand so that she could lead him over to where LaVey waited for them. LaVey gave the bag a once over and then nodded.

"Ahh... Nice." He said, not exactly sure yet how one was supposed to act around little kids.

That seemed more then enough for Valens though as he set to waving his bag turned flag once again and gave a sound much like a little whinny.

Kat nodded to the thankyou, waving as Ala left "Have fun!" she urged to the groups retreating form, only to look back and catch the poor raven boy with a bad face. She gave a light giggle to his expression, oh children... Poor thing, either it was somethign sour or spicy.

Attention was turned back to Ligeia as he spoke, "Oh wow, all by yourself? That's amazing!" She smiled, nodding to the name Earako. She knew the girl, but only when she'd been younger. Ter was moving away, and naturally she gave a wave, "Go go, enjoy the candy! Theres food too, if you eat too much candy you'll get a tummy ache." She smiled, with a soft giggle. It was obvious the woman worked around children all day.

And again her gaze shifted as another boy started away, "You're welcome. Have fun! Feel free to help yourself to the food." She addressed the parents for the last part.

Alan, had settled back even further, now getting his attention drawn by Talia who was urging him to play one of the doll's parts. Grudgingly, he was obligeing and trying to keep everything he had to make the doll say more hushed. Talia was staying quiet, mostly, offering the daddy doll peices of candy, one after the other, receiving a thankyou for each one and offering a giggle in return to that.

Kat had no trouble picking up for Alan, it seemed hte kids were rather frightened of him anyways. And who wouldn't be? Kat had been scared of him herself, before Talia showed up and she was forced to get to know him alittle better. But back to the guests. "Here you go!" She passed the bag to Aysel, looking over the costume. "Very clever." she noted with a grin.

Anoki nearly ran into D-Corp's lobby, trailing a long flame-colored tail and a pair of wings behind him. They were both sequined and shiny and handmade by Mahou, who was masterful with a needle and thread. Even though his horns were longer, Anoki still figured that he looked a good bit like Myung-Ki, which was excellent since that was what his costume was.

The dragon entered at a more sedate pace, pausing at the entrance so that everyone could admire him. Wrapped around his neck was a long red velvet scarf that trailed on the floor, in place of a bulkier cape that would immobilize his wings. There was a good deal of jewelry, both costume and authentic, around all four of Myung-Ki's legs and around his neck. And tied on top of his head was a large gold plastic crown, studded with a myriad of fake gemstones. Even though it was fake, it looked good, and that was what mattered.

Scratching Myung-Ki on the back of his neck, Anoki waited. And waited. And waited some more. Finally he shouted outside. "Mama R-ray, come and sh-show your c-costume!"

"For the last time, Anoki Kenelm, it is not a costume!" Temper stoked, Raven strode into the lobby. She was decked out in a long black robe with embroidery in colorful metallic threads, the most brilliant of which were the gold ones around the collar. The robe was light and flowed, creating quite a silhouette. Fluted sleeves and a broad hem made the garment almost look more like a dress than a robe, but Raven would be quick to correct anyone who mistook it. Of course, the peaked hat she wore and the besom she carried in one hand might have helped with the mistaken identity, but that didn't mean Raven wouldn't let loose. She had a reputation, after all, and wouldn't be caught in such a ridiculous activity. "This is for work, nothing more. I have better things to do than dress up like an imbecile."

Flinching under Raven's reprimand, Anoki slithered away quietly, over to the counter. He recognized the teacher there, and grinned at her. "T-trick or treat, M-miss Kat!"

"Miss Dragonsbane," Raven corrected idly.

"Th-that t-too."

"Hold still!" Both said in unison to each other. The love bird shouting at his mother as he tried to pull up her leotard, and his mother shouting back at him, as she tried to hook the clasp on his toga. Naito, unlike some of the other parents, was never one to pass up a chance for some dress up fun. So by when it came time for Halloween to roll round, she was ready and set with what she deemed a 'most awesome costume'.

"Just what the heck are you again?" Said the colorful child, a little miffed that his mother had 'ruined' his costume. It was so cool! He had planned on going as 'cupid'...he already had the wings, and love being his forte and all...Ma' however, had ruined that idea when he walked out in his boxers. "No" she had flatly said, "Nononooooo," after that it turned into a high pitched shriek at which point she had attacked him. Two hours later the two were now preparing to enter D-corp, fully dressed in costume and ready to go.

"I'm from the eighties," came a huff from the blonde. "It's before your time...you wouldn't understand. " With that, she pulled down her leotard so that more of her chest was exposed, an effort which Paxton of all people had been trying to correct.

Irritated, the pair walked into the building. "Front desk.." nudged his mother, it was a miracle she had remembered. Taking his time, Paxton slipped his way towards the members behind the structure. Just a few in front of him, but once it was his turn--"Trick or treat for me too!" Came a toothsome smile from the pre-teen. That was what he said...right? Or should he have asked that man for what ever it was he was supposed to be getting?

Revon barely noticed the new people who walked in, beyond subconciously shuffling out of the way to keep starring at the interesting game that was going on. Dark wings puffed up at female voice that reminded him too much of his own guardians endless corrections. Bi-colored eyes shifted to the woman momentarily just to see who it was, then back to the game at hand.

Haruki on the other hand watched the two 'doctors' walk in and past to the elevator idly. New workers obviously, he didn't know who they where. Certainly he recognized the other teachers who had come and gone. He didn't know them, he just knew who they were and what they looked like. It was amazing what D-Corp had on file.

Though his main reaction came to the pair that walked in. Naito and the bird. The bird he had very little against, aside from the fact he seemed to be dressed as the creature of love and joy, Cupid. Heaven forbid there be love anywhere. But no. Naito. The infernal cat's partner in crime. He mentally cursed at the idea of being around her and moved another step out of the way. Just pray she didn't see him. That, and that Raja was nowhere to be found.

"Thank you!" Aysel said. "Arith suggested it and Mommy did the make-up." Aysel gave a twirl to show the costume off. Another group of kids were coming so Aysel grabbed the bag. She took off making a beeline for the candy, avoiding random adults in the way. Never get betweeen a child and her candy.

Tara watched blandly from a little ways inside the door, tracking Aysel with her eyes. They still had a party to get to after this after all. They skipped over the pair of doctors as Aysel darted around them, only wrinkling her nose at the fake blood. Must costumes be so gruesome?

With a squee of glee Aysel dug into the candy, this time of year being the only time she was allowed nearly unlimited sugar.

"T..thank you," she responded yet again, giving an awkward curtsey before going further into the room where the rest of the people were milling about. The tables of food looked decent but she wasn't very hungry. Truth be told the young Swan didn't know if she could stomach anything. She was too nervous.

"D..daddy?" She asked, looking around for Aiden. He came up behind her and placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Hey, you okay? Look, you got goodies."

"Uhhuh," she murmured, feeling a wave of calm wash over her. Her father always made things okay. Besides, maybe Etain or Revon would be here! That would be fun.

Even if Keivlos was there it'd be fun. At least she knew them, right? It was then that she started to peer cautiously around for her friends.

Haruki only briefly glanced up from thanking god he had a mask(as if they would help) and blending into the wall(like that would do much mroe good) to see Revon approached by a young girl. Which was fine, he needed to interact with people. Now back to being part of the scenery.

Revon jumped slightly at the fact he'd been spotted. What to do what to do..? Too late to pretendbe wasn't looking and he wanted to play but... but. He blinked at the smile she gave him, managing one himself. Then the question, she seemed as quiet as him. If anything th ekinship was enough to add a followup nod the the boy quietly inched over toward the area. Maybe the man wasn't so bad if he was playing?
