Party!!!, Purposefully Creepy Mansion, Wednesday Evening

It was Halloween, and after a long four-year break, it finally meant that there was a party at the mansion again. There were Jack O'Lanterns outside lighting the way to the house, and bat cut-outs and balloons in the shape of ghosts and skulls all around the house, and creepy looking candy on the snack table.

And a bloody goblin in the fridge. This time, it had a name tag identifying it as April, because Mike was a sentimental fool.

There were also way too many kind of jello shots. And too many versions of Monster Mash on the Spotify playlist for this party, but at least Mike had made a sign with instructions on how to find the playlist and add songs to it.

[ooc: OCD up! OPEN TO ALL! If you're an adult, you got an invitation! Happy Halloween and welcome to long overdue mansion party! ]

Again, was 'warrior woman' a costume? Because once more, Octavia just looked like herself.

And like an anti-social person, hanging out by herself with a plate of various kinds of weird snacks and a couple of jello shots. She didn't actually know yet what those were.

And there was Liam, a couple of purple Jello shots in hand, one of which he held out to Octavia.

"Didn't expect to see you here," he admitted, where 'here' was 'the party in general', because the shadowy corner itself fit entirely with what he knew of her.

That was about how Octavia interpreted it, too. She knew nothing about her exactly screamed 'party'. Or even politely suggested it, really.

She reached for the jello shot, though. "I went to one of these last year," she said. "Still don't really get the point."

"The one where a bunch of people had turned in to strange creatures?" Liam said, making a face. Because he'd been there too. As a weird sort-of vampire.

"Probably, but I wouldn't know," Octavia replied after a beat. "I don't think I stuck around long enough to find out."

"Well, you didn't miss much," Liam informed her. "It was weird. Which I suppose is kind of par for the course around here, so, you know," he shrugged.
