"Come onnnnn!" Elirian drug out the last word as much as she could, tugging her companion's hand as she went. Wynnie had said there would be a festival that only freshlings would be allowed to attend, so of course the small, curious doll had to go. She was very nearly excited to be out and about with so any others her age! Alas, her brother just didn't feel the same as she. He drug his feet as she pulled at his arm. His heels dug into the floor and, for a moment, she almost gave up. The only thing that kept her persistence up was that Wynnie had told her she couldn't go alone. “Okay, Mister sour puss,” she began, releasing his hand to turn and plant her hands on her hips, the sparkly halo suspended above her head on a thin metal strip attached to her headband bouncing to and fro, “I'll give you all my candy.”
Veles cocked a brow at his sister, a snort emitting from him at her ridiculous angel costume. “You we're supposed to give me all your candy anyway,” he stated flatly. The pout she threw his way was perfectly rehearsed, expertly executed, but it didn't work on him the way it worked on Wynnie. Still, he knew she wanted to go and he was going to get a bag full of goodies for escorting her through the festival.
With a groan, he slumped his shoulders and shuffled his way forward. Taking note of his defeat, the doll grinned and skipped along with him. “You owe me, Eli,” the litch muttered as he made his way toward the crowds.
Tri'yn slithered around fetching last minute things before he went on his first trick or treat excursion. "Come on Tri'yn, it's going to start soon!" a young female voice called out from past the door. His adoptive sister was trying to make him hurry. "Lavinia calm down, we'll get going soon" another voice said, this time much older. It was his adoptive mom Sha. He flicked this tip of his tail as he adjusted his costume, a large piece of pasta with some red spots to be tomato sauce, and put on some safety gear. He really liked the reflective strips he added to the pasta spots so others could see him. He took one last look in the mirror and hissed his excitement. He grabbed his candy bag and slithered outside to meet with his adoptive mom and sister. Tri'yn slithered ahead to the first door. "Trick or Treat" he hiss happily as the person shoved some things into this bag and sent him on his way. As he went down the way, Lavinia ran up to the door. Tri'yn looked into his bag to see what the first house gave him. It was a Trick, a pencil. He liked it though. What happened next is what surprised him the most tho. It was a Torii staring at him. A Familiar.
= = = = = = = = = = = =
Lavinia was impatient, wiggling around waiting for her adoptive brother to hurry getting his things She had already called out to him once but he was taking so long! Lavinia was dressed as a colorful jelly with magnets holding on long trailing pieces of cloth to be tentacles. Tri'yn finally made his way outside and she jumped with joy. "Finally slowpoke" she said swaying back and forth. Tri'yn got ahead of her at the first house, she watched as his face had a weird look as she hopped in front of the door she just arrived at. The person at the door smiled as she recited "Trick or Treat Please" The person threw some things into her bag. She thanked them and went to meet up with Tri'yn She peeked into her own bag. She pulled out a school note book. "Oh well that could be useful later on" she though. Then from the side of her came an Aetherjelly. It seemed to want to be around her so she claimed it. "Yay New friends"
Tri'yn's Stash:
Tri'in Rolled a 19 and got a Trick and a familiar. He has picked the pencil as his trick and this Torii as the familiar
Lavinia Stash:
Lavinia rolled a 9 and got a Trick and a familiar as well she has chosen a book as her trick and an Aetherjelly to match her costume
Bailey was very pleased with his Ferret Plushie, he was so happy in fact he could forget about the creepy doll that came with it! He arrived at the next house with a big grin on his face, the Older looking Imp nightmare answered the door with a tray of Homemade CHOCOLATE bat's! Bailey's favorite! His eyes lit up, he couldn't choose which one he wanted, he wished he could have one of each! He closed his eyes and reached out and grabbed the white chocolate bat! He couldn't risk his Torti tarquinn eating it so he shoveled it straight into his mouth, letting out a little mmm of pleasure as he bit into it! This was just great <3 Result -
Alula was so excited to reach the next house she wasn't concentrating on her footing and tripped up over a stone in the road! Her group went on without her and proceeded to the next house! - They didn't realize they'd left her behind till they had already reaped their prizes! Alula was disappointed but she didn't want to knock on the door alone and disturb the Nightmare, So she decided to go without!
Elirian hurried along after her brother, slapping a headband with horns atop his head and handing him a pitchfork. It seemed fitting, since she had decoded to be an angel, she needed a devil! Giggling, as he leveled her with a droll stare, she turned back around and tripped right on her face.
Veles let out a laugh as shuffled past his fallen sibling without offering her any help. He trotted right on up to the first house, rang the doorbell, thanked them for what looked to be a severed hand that was deposited in his bag, and moved to the corner of the house to await Eli.
After being left, the doll hugged and picked herself up, dusting off her white robes with a sour expression. She turned, gaze scanning the crowds for her litch brother. Once she saw him, she stomped toward him, intent on smacking him for abandoning her until she noticed a glowing orb floating above his head. “Uhm… Veles… You got something following you,” she murmured, inching forward to inspect the orb more closely. Each time Veles turned his head to get a good look at it, it would float out of his sight, staying just above his head. Giggling, she shrugged and grabbed his hand, “I think it likes you!”
Just as suspected, the litch became less sullen as he caught glimpses of his new wisp friend. Plus with it floating above him like that, it made the stereotypical devil costume his sister had slapped on him a little cooler. He let Eli lead him to another door, where they smiled and presented their bags with echoes of “Trick or treat!” He was handed a caramel apple, while another adult deposited a purple doll into his sister’s bag. They thanked them in unison and trotted back down the steps. “That doll’s a little too creepy for you,” Veles joked as he bit into his apple, smearing caramel around his mouth.
“No she's not!” Eli huffed as she dug the purple beauty from her sack, holding her close to her chest. “I like her,” she puffed her cheeks out at him, narrowing her eyes as they stopped so she could cuddle her doll.
“Whatever you say,” he shot back before taking another bite. He had been about to start their trek again when something shiny behind Eli caught his attention. Curiously, he leaned to the left to peer around her and nearly choked on the treat in his mouth. There was a torti eating his sister’s white robe, and she had no idea.
Alarmed by the noise he'd made, Eli gripped her doll tighter to her chest, “What?” When all he could do was point, she turned very slowly. Though when he gaze landed on a pale torti chewing on the ends of her robe, she couldn't help the sigh of relief that flood from her. “Hey there, mister!” She gently tugged her robe from his jaws, grinning, “That's not food.”
Pollux pretended to growl like the dragon he was dressed up as when the geist gave him the eraser for a trick the geist must have liked his growl because they gave him a really cool plushie after his growling performance. Pollux preferred to pretend that he was a mighty dragon! That the geist was so afraid of his growl that he had to give him the plushie so he wouldn't get eaten!! Even though more likely the old geist thought Pollux was super cute growling dressed as a dragon and gave him the plushie for that reason. Pollux growled and stomped away still pretending to be a dragon.
Magi frowned as she was given a toothbrush well that was a downer on haunted hallows this was about fun and candy not brushing teeth, she thanked the old imp anyways and turned to leave running into an atherjelly that was green and purple the familiar floated around her like it wanted to be friends. Magi smiled brightly and said "Well hello you're a cutie." She said in a warm tone, she really liked the jellie it was so cute and made Magi feel a little in touch with her naiad side even though Magi wasn't sure if atherjellies ever swam in water.
Aelius Jr grinned and thanks the chimera who gave him a bad of skull candies he went away from the house thanking them again and then opened his candy to eat a few skulls before he went to rejoin his group. Still looking for another freshling to chat with and hang out with this festival. Aelius needed some more friends, he was a little shy when others pointed out his ears and got excited about them otherwise Aelius was a pretty open happy little freshling. He just needed the right being to be his friend he wanted to feel part of something not special.
Shock took another turnip with a face from the bowl to add to his new collection later maybe he would play with them and make them talk to each other. He chuckled again at the idea he was having fun at this festival, he wasn't really looking for anything or anyone he was just enjoying himself. He fluttered his wings in a happy gesture. Then he continued on with his group of freshlings and caretakers who were watching them like hawks jezz they needed to take a chill pill you would think they thought someone would try to eat the freshlings.
Andrew was a little disappointed he was given candy at his last stop instead of the eraser that would have completed his art collection, he sighed and went to put his pencil and notebook away till he could win an eraser and continue his artwork. Andrew looked around kinda curious who else was out in the night enjoying haunted hallows then again Andrew wanted to draw more of the freshlings. Social stuff was hard, he sighed and continued on with his group of freshlings maybe he would work up the courage to go say hi to someone or maybe he would do that next holiday.
Lau was not happy about getting a toothbrush. She wanted to turn around and give it back but she remembered her parents telling her that it would have been rude. When ignatius went up to get his candy he noticed something glowing in a bush. He went and started to reach into the bushand pulled out a lantern with a wisp in it. He was so excited to have it. Then he went up and grabbed his treat which was a toothbrush. He didn’t notice that is was a toothbrush because he’s excited with his lantern.
Eight was really exited about to the toothbrush but on her way back she noticed a another freshling crying and screaming in fear. His mother was trying to give him a plushie but he was frighten of it so she layed in on a brick fence and they left it there. Eight hurried and grabbed it. Lau
Rosline finally put her plushie away in her bag because it was getting a bit hard to lug about and not drop her bag of treats. He still needed a name though. Rosline had decided that both her new toys were boys and brothers because they were both orange.
She trotted up the steps with her group, grinning at the nightmare that opened up the door and shouted “Trick or Treat!” She really wanted a treat this time. She gave an excited squeal as she was handed a small black vesper statue.
It was so cute! And the tail moved! “Thank you!” She called, setting it in her bag. She wanted more kitties!
Jamie walked up to the porch of a strange looking house with his group. The light was one but the porch was full of boxes with vegetables in them. Why did they have vegetables? Why so many? He was so confused and even more confused when he was given a turnip.
It was smiling at him.
Why was it smiling? It was weird. He placed it in his bag, confused. Was he supposed to eat it? Was he supposed to plant it? If he planted it would it grow at all? Jamie wasn’t sure if he wanted anything to do with the smiling vegetable at all.
Eryusa Only problem with not going with a friend or a family member was that the houses got a bit repetitive. You went up and saw if the house was a jerk or not before coming back down to the caretaker. Rinse and repeat. Still Eryusa supposed he was getting cool things. He would just have to be content with that. Maybe though, maybe he could snag a friend. It was something to consider at the very least.
However it was not going to be this stop. He went up to the door and was handed one of those fake wisp lanterns. Okay he admitted this was pretty cool. His new found wisp friend liked the lamp as well or so Eryusa thought. -------- Heka Heka sat down briefly. Mostly because the other kids had done a fair share of trick or treating and they supposed that they wanted to eat some of their spoils. They were fine with that, it gave them an opportunity to lean back and watch everyone else walking about. One of the best things about haunted hallows was the plethora of interesting costumes. Plus freshlings tended not to be too garish in their hallows costume.
They even took some pictures of some interesting jack lanterns and costumes they spotted. Of course considering how dark it was getting, no idea if they would come out, ah well there wasn’t time to view them. It looked like the candy stop was over. Their new tortii companion was nudging them to catch up. --------- Anubis Adjusting his costume he got ready to go to the next house. He briefly thought he caught sight of his sister but he was pushed forward before he got a good look. However the house its self was a trick house and Anubis looked down frowning as he was suddenly handed a tooth brush of all things. Was this a statement on how much candy they were probably going to eat?
Ah well looking at it, the toothbrush looked pretty spooky so that was awesome. Plus tooth brushes tended to disappear so it was good to a duplicate right? Somehow that wasn’t lifting his spirits. ------------ Jin Jin quietly walked up to the next house. She kept thinking about what happened at festivals. You were supposed to meet friends here right? Jin only really had her siblings but maybe that could change. However sitting there silently trailing after her current group wouldn’t get her any siblings. She would have to start a conversation but how? She didn’t really talk around people that weren’t family.
While she pondered her predicament she went to the next house which handed her a bag of candy. Starting munching on it she walked down the stairs only to run straight into a familiar. It blinked back at her before winding its self around her legs and tripping her. Huh that just happened. Okay.
yushika
haha hours later have a start
----------------------------------------- Vanhi Being pushed to go to the next house Vanhi sighed. She didn’t really see the point in trick or treating really. Friends weren’t happening, or at least they weren’t happening yet and really she wanted to work on drawing in her notebook. Still promoting group cohesion or something she joined with the other kids to go to the next house. This apparently was a treat or well a trick house because the old imp lady that answered the door handed her a bat pencil for her pretty wings apparently and a plushie. Oh the plushie was kind of actually really cute.
Vanhi snuggled it a bit before smiling at the old lady and thanking her before skipping down the stairs. Okay she could go for getting some more plushies.
Tri'yn started to go to the next house. He was so happy to be doing this that he was wiggling in delight. He stopped and waiting for Lavinia to catch up as she had stopped to glance at her haul so far. "Come on Lavinia" he said said impatiently flicking the end of his tail. She glanced up and hurried back to him after she handed some things off to Sha to look after. Tri'yn had given his to Sha earlier. Once Lavinia caught up to him, the continued up to the next door. They rang the doorball together and with huge smiles on their faces sung "Trick or Treat" together when the door was answered. The older nightmare beamed in delight at their costumes and dropped some nice things in their bags. They thanked them in response and moved out of the way for the next wave of freshlings to get their items. Tri'yn peaked his head into this bag again. He ended up with an awesome Vespercat statue and another new Familiar, This time a wisp. The color reminded him of his own coloring.
= = = = = = = = = = = =
Lavinia was happy with her last set of goodies, she was so into looking at them she forgot were she was at the moment. She heard Tri'yn calling for her, so she put her things back in her bag and went to hand off her new Jelly to Sha so she wasnt toting it around all night. She saw that Tri'yn had dropped his new Tortie off with Sha as well. She ran back to Tri'yn and they went to the next house. They bounced up and down in excitement as they rang the door bell. The older nightmare was beaming at the costumes as they dropped some things into their bags. They shouted out an excited "Thank you" as they retreated back to allow others to get their items. They went back a little and both stuck their heads into their bags. Lavinia was excited over what she got. She a got a wisp in a lantern and a real wisp as a familiar. This night was going great!

Bailey was licking the last of the chocolate bat off his fingers as they approached the next door, he didn't want to wipe his hands on his apron and leave a streaky brown mark, heaven forbid! The next door was opened only a fraction, the nightmare within stuck their eyes through the gap and realized it was a group of Freshlings - They turned round for a second leaving the door open before a STREAM of Vespercats escaped from the gap! The Freshlings in Baileys group all laughed finding this incredibly funny, the Nightmare was a little distressed, Handing them all these tiny Vespercat statues, they were the size of Baileys Palm and Occasionally wiggled their tails, Bailey thought this was a very appropriate treat from this Nightmare who clearly loved Vespercats!
Result -
Alula was feeling a little sore after her fall - Both her knees and her ego were a little bruised! She was really hoping that she wouldn't do that again! (And she REALLY hoped the next house wouldn't try and trick her, she was feeling a little grumpy!) But she didn't have to fear for the nightmare at the Next house was sitting on the porch, swinging away on a porch swing! Wow, Alula loved that! She was definitely adding a porch swing to her future home, they seemed like a lot of fun! The nightmare got up creakily and complimented all the freshlings on their costumes, take time to rub each of their heads - ruffling their hair!
He handed them all these lanterns with a pretend wisp inside! So pretty! Alula was excited to show her parents this, and give it pride of place on her bookshelf at home!
