Monthly Mingle Log

[thalassino]

Another month has passed and it is time for another oppertunity to mingle. Knowing of the curse that haunts the foreigners, Station Master has taken extra care to plan this party and the preparations only during the daylight hours. Wouldn't want to cause a giant panic, right?

Today, the little tucked away part of the plaza has been livened up with a host of spooky decorations, black cats and witches, skeletons and tomb stones, they have all been placed amongst the food tables, allowing for a casual halloween-ish mood. There are also a lot of pumpkins there, freshly prepared especially for this feast.

The tables of food are back too, filled to the brim with pumpkin pies, pumpkin squash, pumpkin cups cakes, honestly, you can put a pumpkin in and it is there. There are also large bowls of candy, free for the taking.

Naturally the two booths are there again, the one belonging to the welcoming committee, for any new (or old) character with a burning question, and the one belonging to the host club. Who knows what theme they have this week. Only way to find out is to check it out!

Finally, part of the plaza has been set up to allow for the talent contest that was to be held here, organized by a few of the foreigners themselves. Maybe it is time to check it out and see if there are any cool talents on display? Or maybe you have your own talent to display. If so, feel free to visit the show.

As every month, an invitation had gone out to all the foreigners in the day leading up to the party, reminding them of the party, the date, the times, and this time, attached had been an invitation to come dressed up. They might not be able to celebrate Halloween during the evening hours, but maybe a slightly late Halloween party would lift the spirits anyway? Station Master has certainly joined in himself too. For a day, he has exchanged his trusty cap for the scariest thing he could possible think of: a familiar white nurse's cap. 2spooky.

[ Let us all spare a moment to grieve for the fallen pumpkins. Okay, that's enough grieving. Chemicals? What even was that. Nothing important, or so he thought. He picked up a pumpkin and smelled it, looking at Jade, and then at the pumpkin, repeating the action several times. ]

What are you doing to it?

[spacecase]

I'm making lanterns out of them for Halloween.

[Is he okay?? Rin built him up to be some sort of psychopath but he seems incredibly placid for a demon.]

Oh, and I'm keeping the seeds. I can plant my own for next year.

[demonicdiabetes]

[ He's like a pet dog Jade. You'd get along with him. ]

Ooh.

[ Lanterns? Absolutely fascinating. ]

Can I try?

[spacecase]

Of course you can, these are decorations for all of Vatheon.

[Safer than...eating them, anyway. She's about to present him with his own Shitty Pumpkin Carver, but instead she casts a look at his claws and back to the carver.

Might be safer just to ask.]

My name is Jade. Would you like a knife or can you manage?

[demonicdiabetes]

Amaimon.

[ That was all he said before swiping a nearby pumpkin, proceeding to carve into it relentlessly with his nails. Now much was left standing, except a very big mess of pumpkin goop. ]

[spacecase]

[Auuugh messy messy messy--using space magic for sweeping this stuff up is the weirdest thing.]

I already know your name, Rin told me about you!

[demonicdiabetes]

[ Ok. He just nodded before grabbing another pumpkin and slicing it a tad more carefully, althout it still resulted in the pumpkin falling apart, although a bit less messy. ]

[spacecase]

...[She's taking fistfuls of her hair and pulling at it in frustration now.]

Stop! Stooooop! You are a menace to pumpkins!

[demonicdiabetes]

Hm?

[ Why was this strange dog woman mad now. What a bother. ]

What?

[ Casually destroying another pumpkin. ]

[spacecase]

[...You know what, people have been swiping her pumpkins her whole life, now she'll swipe his with space magic.]

Hold on! You aren't supposed to go at it so hard! Squishing the squash is entirely counterproductive to this objective, okay??? Please look--

[That pumpkin is unsalvageable, so she discards that and picks up another one with magic yet takes a Shitty Pumpkin Carver in her own hands and carefully starts to cut out the top.]

Plants of all types can be quite fragile, you must cut them gently if you are going to. [Once the top is gone, she puts down the pumpkin and presents the carver to him.] Here. I think using a tool will help with having to limit your...strength.

[demonicdiabetes]

[ He just watched as Jade worked her odd spacey thingy powers. And as she showed him how to work the tool he watched, interested. ]

Ooh.

[ After her presentation, he takes the pumpkin and the Shitty Pumpkin Carver™ and tries shoving it into the thing, working random shapes but without shattering it. ]

[spacecase]

[Sigh. At least he's capable of being trained following instructions. But instead of going back to carving her own pumpkins, she just watches him to make sure his pumpkin will survive.]

I understand that you are not human, but you must understand as well that things in the human world are fragile and need to make being gentle top priority.

[demonicdiabetes]

Gently?

[ He looks at Jade and then at the pumpkin, stopping to ponder a bit. He then used his Shitty Pumpkin Carver™ to carve something that rudely resembled a face. Only if you looked at it right though. It was very, very crude. ]

[spacecase]

Yes, try to think of it like everything you touch can feel pain. Surely you can go rough on someone or something that you want to feel pain, but everything else you must be gentle because you do not want them to feel pain.

[Then she leans over to look at what he's carving.]

Who is that?
