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!

Good pick.
[ He nods, picking up a small piece of fried dough with powdered sugar. He had eaten it earlier and knew that it was sweet and good. ]
These are good, too. If you like sweets.
[ All he can think is that his coach would be really having quite a chat with him if he saw him eating like this here. ]
no subject
I know. I've had a few to balance out these drinks. [ Not that she's completely at a loss. She's smart enough to know ways to mitigate the effects of it, past her odd biology that seems to make it harder for her to achieve and keep that lovely, odd, buzzing feeling that takes away control. Not too much, of course, she can't be an absolute wreck, but...
Well, sometimes it was nice to let go. Even if she regretted it the next day. ]
Mmn.. I'm so-so on them, but I'm already ruining myself with food and drink tonight, so why not? [ It's easy enough to pick one up and pop it in her mouth, nodding as she takes in the fluffy, sweet flavor of it. ]
Not bad at all... [ She takes a moment to survey the crowd, leaning in a little so it's easier to talk. ]
You have a good crowd going. It seems people like the idea of it.
no subject
Thanks.
[ It sounds sincere. He's comfortable close to her in the space. She's earned that from him in the time they've spent talking and engaging with each other. ]
It was worth it.
[ His eyes light up for a moment when he says that. ]
It's why I like DJing. Thanks for coming.
no subject
I'm glad. If you're going to ruin your diet it might as well be worth it. The problem comes when you survive on beans for a few weeks and then everything becomes worth it for a little while. [ Her first few weeks on the Eluvio and the planet they'd been stranded on for a while come to mind. How many times had she ended up in the food districts with Carolina or Kirk eating herself sick, or going out to clubs and drinking herself silly? She'd been even younger than she already is, then, but the bit of wildness had been...
Freeing. For her gut and her age. ]
No problem. you got me your invitation first so the least I could do was show up. [ Besides, she likes Otabek better, and... well, she'd talked Kirk in to a couple's costume when she'd been soothing his fight with Bones with wine. ]
Just wait until you see Kirk - it's one of those thing you will hopefully only see once in your life.
no subject
[ As he says it, he pops another sweet into his mouth and eats it. He's not lying, either. He did manage his diet himself while at home, but if his coach saw him eating something he most definitely should not be eating... he was sure to let Otabek know. ]
Or any of the drinks.
[ He's only really usually letting himself drink when seasons end, and October is right in the middle of it. ]
I look forward to seeing it, then. Yuri's...dressed as Little Red Riding Hood.
[ Of course. To match his big bad wolf. ]
no subject
Good thing your coach and my doctor aren't here, then. [ She's rather happy about that development, even if she'll never actually say such a thing. Granted, before and even here in the Quarantine she'd been running around, doing a lot of tasks - on the Rabbit they had been for basic survival, and her exercise an extra to all her walking and carrying and gathering when they happened upon supplies. In the Quarantine.. well, she'd gone soft for a little while.
Now it was her typical busy work schedule, gym time when she could fit it, and even ice skating when her and Otabek's schedules managed to match up. Over all, her body is thanking her for the variety. ]
One night won't kill anything provided you're back to behaving afterward. A little bloat but.. who hasn't dealt with that once or twice? [ She thinks back to bajikan and all the eating and drinking she'd done there... and maybe only barely holds back on a little wince before, thankfully, Otabek brings up his boyfriend's costume. ]
Never heard of little red riding hood, actually. But I guess I'll know when I see him, hm?
no subject
Bloat? [ He is totally feigning offence. He's naturally experienced it sometimes. He's not perfect. It's how he learned what he can and can't eat on his own. ] I never.
[ Half smile. He glances around for a moment. ] You will. He...still looks like himself, of course. [ So. Still a pretty blonde. ] And Red Riding Hood is pretty straight forward. It is what it sounds like.
no subject
[ Two bottled up people somehow befriending each other seems to be all the right things in the universe, at least for the moment. Thankfully no one has tried to dig deeper about Daedalus, not even Jim, which keeps her very content in the moment. Daedalus, in a way, was like a fussy coach.
Just, you know, not coaching her in a sport. ]
Oh please. Even you perfect skaters have to get that. [ Re-L gives an over dramatic eye roll, though, really - she's not too bad off in that department herself. Might just be the virtue of being so damn long in general, to be fair. ]
Ah, well, straight forward helps. Though I suppose I might recognize him by the face anyway. [ She makes another little sarcastic motion, then - ]
Well, you know, I can't hide anyways. [ Makes a motion with her hand to indicate 'tall' - taking another scuff of her drink. ]
no subject
[ Slight smirk, but it shifts into a small smile, and he shakes his head. ]
I wish.
[ In the figure skating world, Otabek's far from ideal. Yuri? JJ? Yuuri? Viktor? All have body types suited to a skater. Otabek is bulky by comparison. He's broader than his competitors and he builds muscle easy. In any other sport? It would be a blessing. As a figure skater? It was something he had to be careful of. ]
But you...definitely can't hide.
[ She was even taller than normal thanks to her outfit of choice. ]
no subject
Granted, I'm not exactly a connoisseur. [ In the way that she's literally never seen competitive figure skating before in her life, at least. The way she sees it Otabek is pretty damn good, and she certainly wouldn't live up without a few years training, so.. close enough.
Re-L herself is simply genetically... different. Hence why she is so long and tall, though she's not about to try and explain what the hell a Proxy was and why someone had tried to make her from one. It's all a bit convoluted. ]
Well.. I can't normally either, so I thought why not just go ahead and make it even more obvious? All the people whining about the height of my heels when I'm already tall might as well eat it up while I'm giving it to them. [ There's a smirk there - she doesn't honestly care other than the repetitiveness of hearing that she's tall. Might as well put herself on an even if not greater playing field than the taller men here in the Quarantine and call it a night. ]
Besides, I hear that if Barbie was a real human she'd be tall. At least from what I was told.
no subject
I think so. Not that I have much experience with Barbie. [ That much is obvious. ]
Whining about your height in heels, though? [ He shrugs. Otabek's shorter than most of the skaters he competes against. So it's never really been a thing he's thought or cared about. ] Why?
