While looking about the mildly decorated but still eerie and obviously run down event space, themed cocktail in hand, Quinton commented, “Well, they certainly nailed down the creep factor for this place.” He took a sip of his drink and immediately pulled it away from his lips with a pinched expression. “Ugh. A word to the wise? I do not recommend the Embalmer’s Tonic drink unless you’re a fan of overly sour drinks.”

Had it not been for the self-guided tour of the old hospital, Luis probably would not have attended the party. While Halloween had always been one of his favorite holidays, he still wasn’t what someone would call a “party person.” But Luis had always found himself drawn to things that were haunted, he had always assumed it was because of his past, and getting to wander in halls like this sounded like the perfect way to celebrate the holiday. He had stopped to take a picture (which was pretty difficult considering his mask) and with no peripheral vision, ran into someone he hadn’t heard walk in. “Oh, sorry,” he mumbled, taking a few steps back.

Lucille turned a little bit from side to side in partial twirls, smiling about her costume. “I have to say, although it was strange at first, I’ve grown to enjoy how much Halloween is celebrated here. The costumes are fun to anticipate at least.” She grinned a bit while perching herself on a bar stool, “What made you choose your costume?”

“Okay so I brought a TON of glowsticks,” Zelda excitedly stated, opening her bag to show them off. There were pretty much every type of glowstick that you could think of: the kind you hold, the jewelry kind, glow stick glasses. Zelda hadn’t meant to go overboard, but if there was ever a concert that required this amount of glowsticks it was LMFAO. “So take whichever ones you want because this CLEARLY is going to be the best concert at the festival. I’ve been looking forward to it since the lineup was announced.”

Halloween was one of Nina’s favorite times of year. At home they had always celebrated a weird cultural mishmash of American Halloween, Dia de los Muertos, and All Saints’ Day. Nina’s mom made the same pan de muerto and mole that generations before her had made for years in Colima, while Nina’s dad made sure there were both chrysanthemums and marigolds on the family altar. 

This year, though, Nina wasn’t going to be with her family for the holiday. It felt strange. So, to get her mind off things, she’d decided to go to this Halloween party. The atmosphere was very spooky, and the theming of the drinks was spot on. 

“My god, I think the Grim Reaper is actually killing me. What is even in this?”

Event# o3--Giving to Others

For this event, the characters of gods in America have been invited to help put the “giving” in Thanksgiving. Invitations have been sent out for them (along with others in the City) to volunteer in preparing meals for others in the community. The meals will need people to cook them, package/prep them and deliver them throughout the 5 boroughs.

Reach out to others within the group to plot together. Perhaps your character(s) tag team in one part of the assignment. Maybe your character butts heads with another while preparing the meals or delivering them. Maybe friendships bloom or strengthen. Perhaps the volunteer opportunity allows your character to reflect. If your character possess the spirit of a god, feel free to incorporate the influence of their spirit in during the meal prep &/or delivery.

Have fun! While starters may be posted at any time, please try to wrap your threads by mid-December. Tag any posts related to the event “giaevent”.
