 ⏵ arrival ⏴ Welcome to Etraya! Everything is fine now. 😊 Arrival goes expected - or it does for the most part. Aurora greets newcomers in the hospital as they awaken, offers a brief explanation and gives them their earpiece so they can communicate with one another. Around the hospital and outside of it, Companion Bots are hard at work decorating the city for Halloween—complete with festive touches like pumpkins, cobwebs, and glowing ghost decorations. The atmosphere is fun, light-hearted, and maybe just a little spooky. 🎃👻 Some carry buckets of candy, and offer those they come across a trick or treat. Except both options are, in fact, treats. 🍬 Tricks are treats specifically wrapped in a green wrapper that very clearly declares that they are tricks. Treats are wrapped in orange, and labeled with treat! Companion bots will recommend that those who do want to take a trick take them when they're beside their friends. There won't be any permanent effects from these, nor will they be terrible tricks - just fun ones! All effects last roughly 24 hours.
 ⏵ getting spooky! ⏴ Etraya is embracing the season - and maybe even going a little overboard. Around the hospital, a few small pop-up shops are manned by festively dressed companion bots. They offer samples to everyone - although sampling isn't really necessary. After all, everything here is free!
 ⏵ masquerade ⏴ In the spirit of mystery, Etraya will be hosting a Masquerade Ball outside the hospital through the nights of October 26th and 27th. Dance anonymously with other attendees and make new friends under the cover of your disguise. Everyone receives a single rose they can exchange with someone else throughout the evening. At the stroke of midnight, the roses will reveal the true identities of your masked dance partners. 🌹  ⏵ all hallow's eve ⏴ On October 31st, multiple companion bots set up shop along one of the walkways through the larger island towards the center. With chairs and small booths set up, they offer candies out to trick-or-treaters who wander around through the first part of the night. Some of them will request trick-or-treaters to do a trick for them, to earn a bigger treat! They may ask characters to dance, sing, or show a talent unique to them. Can your character bend themselves into a pretzel? They want to see it, and will offer them a nice bracelet in exchange! Can they whistle super loud? Maybe they'll get a nice piece of kevlar armor after showing off. This can be anything within reason - bike parts, small weaponry, armor pieces, toys, canvases for painting. Please request these items HERE. Not everything is as light-hearted as it seems, however. Aurora issues a warning to the citizens of Etraya: Do not stay outside after midnight. Strange happenings have been reported, and those who disobey may start seeing visions of past loved ones. The visions are compelling—guiding people away from the safety of the buildings and into the mysterious mist surrounding the outskirts. But be careful, these spirits may not be as friendly as they seem. If you come into contact with these ghosts, you’ll feel a chilling cold, leading to hypothermia-like symptoms. The longer you’re exposed, the worse it gets. Treatment? You’ll need to be warmed up quickly.  ⏵ skellys! ⏴ The Companion Bots wanted to join in on the fun, so they painted themselves with glow-in-the-dark paint to look like skeletons. But in the dead of night, for those already suffering from the chilling touch of the ghosts, seeing glowing skeletons approach from the darkness might not be the most comforting sight. 🤖💀 Stay safe, warm up, and enjoy the festivities!

But it is nice that Heather lets him go on as he does; he supposes he's grown a little used to steamrolling her with what he has to say. Maybe it's because she's younger than he is that she feels she has to wait. Or maybe it's just she's a considerate person? He turns his head and wants to chuckle; neither one of those sounds right.
He turns his head back. ]
'Course I care about your pain. [ He decides to say that even though his face twists in disgust about the idea of having his corpse next to Claudia's. ] I hate that thought. Though--
[ Stopping himself, he shrugs. He would say something cold and heartless: like he's surprised there's anything left of Claudia to be considered a corpse from what Heather told him. ]
That so?
[ Walking over, he pauses to stare at the 'Jason' costume. His eyes drift from it to her. ]
Can I ask why? Is it because you don't want to see my face anymore? [ He smiles. ]
no subject
( it was a difficult thing to admit, to be called out so boldly in the store when all she wanted to do was forget the pain of the past. truthfully to her, all members of the order deserved to die. she wanted to kill claudia specifically, but vincent wasn't out of the question.
however that rage and desire for revenge had died out when god had been born and claudia died from it. now she felt empty and lost despite the brave front she put up. so she wasn't going to comfort him-
that wasn't her job after all, being the younger one. )
That wouldn't be so bad, but I'd prefer to silence you first.
( she forced a smile, a subtle laugh as if to play off what she really felt. she didn't want to argue with him here, but she had her ways of getting her message across. )
Are you even going to dress up?
no subject
[ Bending down slightly, he tips his head to indicate that he got her message. There are certain things that they should talk about and certain things they shouldn't. ]
I might get a better outfit than the one I came in. [ He tugs lightly on the vest that he's wearing. ] But other than that, probably not. [ A smile filters itself across his face. It's brief before it's gone. His smiles are best when they're like that, as he's aware that smiling doesn't suit his face. ]
But you should dress up. Have some fun.
no subject
( truly, he wasn't beating the 'weird cult guy' allegations with that outfit. in a way too, maybe she was trying to help him.
she wasn't a fan of his, but she didn't outright hate him. she just knew that if she had to take a stance against him, even if it meant killing him someday, she wouldn't shy from that idea.
for now though, she simply nodded at his words and began to walk down towards the aisle they were in. )
You're right, I'll probably go crazy if I don't take a break from all of this...
no subject
[ He cocks his head in her direction, staring down at her, as he jokes along. ]
Plead the fifth on that -- [ Holding his hands behind his back like before, he peers at the costumes with a more scrutinizing eye. ] -- still, I wonder if they're going to do something like trick-or-treating.
[ Vincent frowns, not looking at what is in front of him. ] And now, I wonder if I have to worry about getting candy. [ His face scrunches up as he shrugs. ] Would you partake in that sort of tradition if people here asked?
Egg someone's apartment door if they don't give treats? [ Idly, he tosses out that idea after his question. ]
no subject
she continued on, fingers touching costumes that appeared on the racks with idle curiosity. she turned her head back towards him as he spoke, shrugging a bit at his question. )
I mean I guess I'll give a try, but I don't think I'll be eating anything here-
( to his last question, she rose an eyebrow up in curiosity. what exactly was he getting at here? )
If they forced me to, I guess I would have to. I don't really want to be punished for not complying.
no subject
[ Vincent rests his hand against his chest, in an attempt to look offended and hurt. His hand drops shortly after. ]
Fair enough. But I'm saying that you should do those things in general, you know.
[ Guess she doesn't. ] Unless you're too old for that sort of thing?
no subject
( in response to his 'dramatic' response, heather simply rolled her eyes as far back as she could to show him how little she truly cared for his humor. )
You and I both know I'm technically far too old to for all of this anyways, but I have to try and live out what was stolen from me all those years ago.
( was she implying that he was responsible for that? absolutely. she wasn't sure what he was up to during the time dahlia had been trying to nurture her past self with hate, but being a member of the order made him guilty by association.
with a soft sigh, she picked up a costume that had caught her eye and she turned on her heal, fully indicating she was done with this conversation. )
I guess I should get going before you try and hold my hand again. You seem...rather starved for affection.
no subject
[ A quick smile.
The smile fades as he actually doesn't have anything to add to her comment about what was stolen from her. He clicks his tongue instead as he offers a small nod in agreement. In a lot of ways, he feels a great deal of sympathy for Alessa and Heather.
What happened isn't anything that Vincent would have wanted, but his sympathy feels more like pity since it does make him feel better to be able to pity someone so much more than what he is. ]
Yeah... that sounds like me. [ He flashes another quick smile before making a gesture for her to take her leave. ]
