Party!!!, Purposefully Creepy Mansion, Wednesday Evening

[newroutines]

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.

Yeah, it did sound weird.

"Okay," she said, in that way that you said 'okay' when someone said something that you couldn't really figure out. So, kinda slow and mildly confused.

"I'll get you some books on it if you want." And maybe some articles at... the newspaper. He was still hoping it would be normal there come Monday.

It wasn't going to be normal there. It just wasn't. Welcome to Fandom.

"Sure," she said, shaking off that mildly weirded-out feelings. Her attention span was a little shorter than usual right now, anyway. "I prefer books to the internet, anyway."

Which was probably another thing that a cult escapee might say.

Which was totally why he offered it.

"Yeah, come by the paper sometime next week."

"The paper?"

Look, she would've known what a newspaper was and where its office was located if they'd actually had one during the year she'd been here.

It had been there the whole time, but the thing about those dear is that they were too busy writing to publish.

Weird, right?

"Yeah, I'm working at the paper here Fandom Gazette? Does no one know it?"

Octavia shrugged. "I haven't heard of it, but I don't know if that's saying much."

"Well, come by anyway." AND PROVE HE WASN'T NUTS MAYBE?

"Okay, maybe you'll see me there."

No, she'd come by. There was a limited amount of things to do on the island, for one.
