Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Follow my lead," Thanatos chuckled, ushering her to stand in front of the camera; as she had suggested, he did come to stand behind her, one hand on her waist to hold her against him. In that same hand, concealed from the lens of the camera, was the device to operate the machine, "Ready, my little mermaid?"

Once was was in position, he counted down - 3, 2, 1 - and tossed a fistful of glitter into the air above them, letting it rain down on them, before pressing down on the button, setting the camera off; it was gathered from the glitter than had fallen on his suit from False's glitter bomb. Since they were already pretty much covered with it from head to toe, he doubted that this little bit of glitter would make too much of a difference.

He frowned a little at first, unable to respond to her scolding without opening up a can of worms that didn't need opening. Not now. Not tonight. West waited her out, moving closer as she began to purr again. He couldn't seem to get enough of that sound or the rumbling vibrations it sent along his skin. Did this mean he was as good as fish? He smirked at the thought and filed it away in his mental "Things to Tease the Tatzel With" folder.

"T'night's a good night fer compliments," he said. "But dun go lettin'em get t'yer head." He wanted to believe that he would go back to snarking at her tomorrow, as usual, but he couldn't help thinking that some sort of floodgate had been opened. Maybe he would never snark again.

West brought his other hand to her hips as well, then leaned in and planted a kiss on her cheek that was so brief he might not have been there at all.

Nah.

The snark would return, but not for at least another ten minutes. Right now, he was thoroughly lost in Compliment City. "No one's askin' me 'cause y'could wear a smelly sheet an' a roll a'tape and I'd think y'look good."

He bit his lower lip then pressed them together as she grabbed him again. West tried to hold back his grin, but it was too late. He wrapped his fingers lightly around her arm, but the gesture was more possessive than discouraging.

"Me what? I didn'do a thing." He tried to sound innocent, but West and innocent were an unnatural fit.

Amphi looked over as she noticed Roch in a bright awesome...huge...hat.

"Oh!" Amphi wiggled away from Thana to go attack the boil. "Roch you won!" She smiled....but she knew that pose, he looked like he was going to run.....

OH NO. AMPHI GOT YOU NOW ROCH.

"Hey! I wanna see it on you!" Amphi beelined it to the Reaper, and then ran at him full force. In reality....she just tackled the poor dude. and then clung to him. "You can't leave...You wanna get a picture right?!?! GET A PICTURE ROCH!!!"

The trick or treater had been watching, waiting, for the moment to strike. As Roch was brought down by the valiant Amphi, the pair would find themselves assaulted by a small 'poof'. Glitter dusting them and smelling lightly of chocolate, Desu-chan rolled two small bags to them before leaving.

Roch blinked, watching as the glitter spilled over them--again. Then the smell mixed with the chocolate. "Well... great," he said, making a face. "It's sortta like a trip to the maul on a hot day," he decided, trying to ignore the tiny mermaid plastered to his side--

Then he looked around, KNOWING that her date was probably right there, watching them. But he did take a second to grab the bag of bombs and pocket them before looking to Amphi again. "Amphi?" he said. "C'mon, lemme go, please?" he asked, tugging gently to get her off of him. "I'm thinkin' your date is watchin," he added.

Jack... he WANTED a hug right now. He had WON! Well... court jester, which made him, what, the prankster? Hmmm... Eh, oh well. But no hugs! Hugs were definitely BAD right now! At least from Amphi they were.

Cruel. So cruel. He felt like a kicked puppy with that look and it almost showed. At least the mask--wait, no, somewhere along the line the mask had been tossed--probably during one of the massive dances. Roch took a deep breath, held it for a second, then let it out, turning so he was facing her head on. "Thanks," he said. "Ain't no biggie, really, but hell, I like stupid hats," he admitted, sounding as if he knew exactly how silly that fact was--and didn't care.

Then he tugged her into a hug, leaning down and wrapping his arms around her. Jack her date, jack his heartache, this was HIS jackin' hug.

Red crept up the back of Roch's neck and he reached up, not quite touching where she had kissed him. Then, with a shrug, he headed for the camera, standing in front of it and grinning slightly. He was seriously confused--to the point that he forgot he was covered in glitter thanks to Desu and Amphi.

CLICK!

And then Roch left, cuz standing there among couples waiting to kiss in front of the camera was way more awkward than the punk wanted to deal with.
