Halloween!
Who: Anyone and everyone!
What: Costumes, parties, and evil pumpkins
Where: Idol Springs
When: Halloween (October 31)
Warnings: Beware of giant evil pumpkins.
During the day, the gift fairies are busy flitting about, delivering a box to each Outsider! In each box is a costume, presumably to be worn to the Halloween party advertised on posters in every world. Costumes aren't required...but why wouldn't you wear a costume to a Halloween party?
The party itself is fairly humble, as the natives have had to contend with errant pumpkin vines and mischievous ghosts all month. There's a table of actual food, many pumpkin or squash based recipes, and a table for desserts with all manner of pies and pastries, as well as overflowing bowls of candy. There are streamers and simple decorations, and some games such as bobbing for apples... A small hay maze has been set up to one side. A few musicians are playing music - square dance calls included. It's nothing fancy, but it's certainly intended to be a fun break from all the recent strangeness. They'll even be keeping the ghosts out for the duration of the evening!
Until midnight, that is. Then the party will have an unexpected guest...

His Pokemon keep wandering around, looking over the furniture.

At least it was still early, and very little would have been missed, if at all. Red went to where the chairs had been left out for him, speaking a few words to one of the men that came over to him. He hoisted them up into his arms, but set them again after a few steps, looking over to Enzan and co while resting against the back of the chairs.
"Are they ready?"
no subject
At the sound of his voice, his Pokemon return to his side. Eevee leaps up onto his shoulder and Enzan looks back to Red, "They're ready to go."
no subject
The chair tops were rested over his shoulder, allowing him to see where he was walking.
"How's the ghost trouble been in your area, anyway? Had any?"
no subject
That had been very startling.

"I dunno, it's weird. I hear Halloween's all about tricks, but people here've been saying it's not normally like this. Like, all the pumpkins poppin' up everywhere was weird, then all the ghosts too? Some of the tents here got slashed this morning. It's good the dragons are around now but, I dunno. Is it going to stop after tonight?"
no subject
There was no telling when another unfortunate "accident" would occur after all.
