Happy Halloween [ totally open ]
who: anyone ;
what: halloween party
when: October 31 - 6PM-11PM (or later~)
where: Element Nightclub
warnings: if needed - please post in individual threads.
Welcome to the Club
Outside of the club there's some decorations, but they remain minimal, so not to interfere with the glowing sign "Element" to let people know that this is the place to be. There's a bouncer, larger in stature, standing near the entrance of the club. He's there more to ensure that there's no trouble, rather than anything else. He's dressed as Frankenstein, to match the theme of the club's decorations. The only decorations outside, really are an array of neatly organized jack-o-lanterns with a variety of designs and shapes.
In the entranceway, there's fake cobwebs decorating the ceiling, and spiders and bugs decorating the entranceway and walls. Everything is neatly done. Perfectly organized, and details are definitely strongly considered in each and every step. This entranceway is quite dark, though. The only lighting is purple, turned down quite low so not to illuminate, but to keep it safe for people to walk through and get into the club.
The further one steps into the club, the more elaborate the decorations get. While it's still pretty dimly light, though there's more colorful lighting near the dancefloor.
There's so many things to see, including moving skeletons, thanks to a bit of magic courtesy of Nico. In parts of the room, there's ghostly figures in a variety of poses.
One of the corners is lit up completely with a blacklight, and there's some accessories near a shelf that glow in the blacklight.
Another of the corners is lit up a little more brightly, with curtains hanging and a camera. A photobooth with fun props, so that people can have fun capturing pictures of their costumes. Once they take pictures, they'll be given a ticket so that they can get the pictures taken the following day online.
In the center of the club, is the dance floor, off to the side - there's a bar, there's games, food tables, and all sorts of things to keep one entertained for the duration of the night.
Costumes are not required to enjoy the night, but they are certainly recommended and encouraged.
Dance Floor
The dance floor is more brightly lit than the rest of the club. The lights blink and strobe to the beat of the music. The music that is being played is a combination of remixes of songs from various horror movies, remixes of classic rock songs, and audience requests. The clear intention is to get people up, moving, and dancing. The music may be not quite so familiar to people who aren't from a more modern-day earth.
At the front of the dance floor, there's a platform where the DJ is working. Near it, there's a small table where people can write down requests for music that can be played later on in the evening. He's open to suggestions, since people from other worlds or times might want to hear something more familiar to them.
Towards the end of the night, he leaves the platform to participate in the party, and a playlist starts - featuring any music requested, as well as songs that he had picked out earlier in the month to be sure that he'd play for people to participate in.
The last few songs are definitely far less upbeat than the first, as it is meant to slow down the party, encourage people to leave, and get people to cool off from a night out.
Bar
The bar has red lighting above it. It's a long bar, and near one of the walls, opposite from the blacklight and photobooth. There's three bartenders. They're dressed as a vampire, zombie, and a werewolf. They seem happy and excited to be here. They're bouncing round, helping to serve guests as quickly as possible. The glasses come in a variety of designs for customer to get - depending on the drink they get.
The drinks themselves seem to be Halloween themed, with names like "Vampire Blood" and "Witch's Curse". There's both alcoholic and non-alcoholic versions of most of the drinks available to people to get.
Trick-or-Treat
The wall nearest to the entrance has several foods. All the food is finger food that people can pick up for themselves. So many different treats (and not really any tricks) to pick from. The treats seem to come from various places, as the people who prepared it are used to a variety of people eating the food. There seems to be something suitable for everyone who is attending.
Scattered among the foods are sweets that are particularly favored to Halloween. There's some caramel apples that can be found at the tables, as well as a variety of popcorns and other fun sweet treats.
There's two large bowls (one at either end of the tables) with a variety of sweets - from chocolates, hard candies, to gummies. Basically, if it is a Halloween favorite, it can be found there.
While the bar is always available to get drinks - there's options here for water bottles, and two punch bowls, one with a red concoction, which tastes like fruit punch, and the other is apple cider.
Relaxation & Games
There's so many options and places to hang out in the club. There's games in random spots hanging around - such as bobbing for applies, or pin the tail on the werewolf. Silly, fun things to do to keep people entertained when they're wanting to take a break from dancing.
Also, there's several places near the walls to sit and hang out next to the bar, and between the photobooth and blacklight - against the wall. Tables and with fun decorations, and centerpieces - jack-o-lanterns with lights inside, glowing a bright orange. The tablecloths are black and orange. The seating is comfortable.
Wildcard
If you have an idea of your own, please - feel free to go for it!

And, of course, to fulfill her promise to Otabek to make it to his Halloween Party. She enjoys the music very much and she appreciates the way he's managed to mix requests together. She spends pretty much most of the evening out on the dance floor, so when he sets up the autoplay and makes it out, himself, she makes a point of finding him.
She's costumed in a witch hat and outfit when she approaches, waving enthusiastically and hoping he'll recognize her from their conversation on the network. She has to speak up a bit loudly because of the music playing. ]
Otabek! Hey! You did such a good job out there!
no subject
He returns the wave, small, calm, but clearly directed at her. He starts in her direction as well, until they meet so they can talk. ]
Thank you.
[ A small nod. He seems to be taking the compliment pretty earnestly. ]
I'm glad you like it. Everyone likes it.
[ Half-smile. ]
I've never really celebrated Halloween before so I had some help.
no subject
You had help? From who?
[ apparently she has not caught sight of the other half of this ensemble. ]
no subject
Well, there's a lot of employees at the clubs I work at.
[ He didn't want to force people to help him, so he asked. ]
And my boyfriend helped me setup.
[ Small smile. ]
But I'm the only DJ.
no subject
Ah.
...Damn.
Well, you win some, you lose some! The slight disappointment doesn't show at all on her face, though, and she just carries the conversation on. ]
I think you're doing a great job, so.
[ Then she smirks a little. Now that she knows Otabek has a boyfriend... ]
Your boyfriend did a really good job, too!
[ It's time to tease. ]
no subject
He always does. Yuri never does anything short of perfect.
[ And there he did it... But that's how he sees it. ]
I didn't want to keep him tied down, since I know that working up there with me isn't the most fun if you're not me.
no subject
Note to self, though - keep an eye out for this Yuri person. ]
I guess that's fair. I'd personally love to be up there, though, even if it's just to dance!
no subject
[ But he's definitely looking at it from the wrong perspective. He doesn't really think there's a ton of room to dance up there. Him and Yuri getting close like that is fine. He loves his job, really. But he doesn't know if it's as much to watch when you're having a hard time moving about to the music. ]
But there's not much room to dance between equipment and me moving around.
[ So he might as well go enjoy the party, right? ]
no subject
I guess you're right. Oh, speaking of your boyfriend—
[ She raises her arms, almost cheering. ]
Happy birthday!!
I saw someone say something about it on your network post about the party. Now that I think about it, that was definitely your boyfriend.
no subject
[ Otabek was purposely dodging this fact. It's not that he hates birthdays or celebrating things. It's just not important to him that people celebrate his. He's fine with just having the Halloween celebrations. He knows that he's going to have time alone with Yuri tonight, and honestly, that's all he'd possibly want. ]
I don't really celebrate.
[ Too much traveling, not much time with family until recently. He is okay with that. ]
So...I'm doing this instead.
[ Which he prefers. ]
