Forums » General Roleplay » Trick or Treat: Sandra's House (Closed)

It was that time of year again, So Sandra decided to set up for trick or treaters coming to her door. Setting some carved pumpkins out (which looked like they had been shattered and stuck back together - but that's another story), and placing a plastic skeleton on the door, Sandra stood back to admire her decorations. It wasn't much, and barely made a different to the outward appearance of her house, but as she was with child, Sandra wasn't really able to do anything too fancy. Putting on a witch's hat, Sandra waited patiently for the first trick or treaters to arrive at her house.

Eliane peered curiously up at the house as she approached the front door. Halloween was still a relatively new concept to her, but she had seen how fun it had looked and she wanted to try it out. A pair of black cat ears sat perched on top of her head and she had pinned a cats tail to the back of her shorts. It had taken her a few tries but she eventually managed to paint whiskers on her face that didn't look crooked. All in all, it was a very basic costume, but she thought she had done well for her very first time dressing up. She stepped up to the door and gave a knock, plastic pumpkin extended before her as she gave a bright smile. "Trick or treat!"

Sandra opens the door with a smile. "Oh hello there." She smiles at Eliane, and offers up a basket full of candy to her. "Nice costume." She rummages around inside the basket and offers up a handful of candy to place in the plastic pumpkin. "There you go. Have a safe and enjoyable Halloween."

Eliane's smile only grew at the comment about her costume. "Thank you, it's my first time dressing up!" She watched with a happy expression as the woman dropped some candy inside her bucket, the girl bouncing on her toes slightly in excitement. "Thank you, have a nice night!" Eliane said as she bid the woman good-bye with a wave before turning and hurrying back into the night, excited to go to her next house.

Sandra waves to Eliane as the girl heads off, and then settles down to wait for the next trick-or-treater to arrive at her door.

Rook made her way up to the door with a bounce in her step. This was one of her favorite holidays and it was written all over her face. She was dressed as Freddy Krueger, complete with her own leather glove with rather convincing blades despite the fact that they were just plastic. The femme raised her normal hand and knocked a few times, mindful of the skeleton on the door, before flexing her gloved fingers gently as she waited. Oh man, those carved pumpkins had seen better days, but she wasn't judging in the slightest. It was the effort that counted! "Trick or Treat!" she'd greet sweetly whenever the door would open, raising a simple black treat bucket splattered in stage blood for whatever treats awaited. "I looove your skeleton guy," she complimented warmly, "He's super cute."

"Thank you." Sandra smiled at the compliment. She deposits a handful of candy from her basket and into the bucket that Rook was holding out. "I really like the costume, by the way. Happy Halloween!"

"You're welcome," she smiled, her eyes lighting up even further as the candy was dropped into her bucket. "Oh, thank you," she grinned at the compliment to her costume, "I made it myself actually." Most of the ones she'd seen online just didn't do Freddy 'justice' in her eyes so she took matters into her own hands. "Thanks for the goodies, and you have a Happy Halloween as well!" she chirped brightly, turning and heading on her way. Tonight was starting out quite nicely already.

Sandra waves to Rook as she heads off. "I wonder who else will show up?"

Clementine pops out of a portal with a smile and came up to the house. She held her bag up, dressed as a sheep of course, and smiled. “ trick or treat” she said in a jolly mood as friend baa’d in response

"Oh that's cute." Sandra smiled at the sheep costume. "Here you go." She offered up some candy to fill Clementine's bag.

"Trick-or-treat!" The young boy would say, holding out his small plaid pillowcase. The kid was dressed up as a bizarre muscular cat creature. The outfit's crown is flat, while two sharp, triangular shapes resembling cat ears stand on both sides of the top of its head. Hayato was also wearing a mask, its eyes comprise cat-like vertical pupils in front of its generally light-colored sclera. He was wearing dark, studded, leather-like forearm-length gloves, mirrored in style by a garter belt-like band at its waist and ankle-height footwear. Its thumbs are additionally bandaged in white. Four short spikes line the top of its back. Its shoulders, the back of its hands, belt buckle, a plate hanging in front of its crotch, both sides of its ankles, and the top of its feet all bear the emblem of a skull with ears resembling its own, in varying sizes and external decoration. This costume clearly took a lot of dedication to be so... unique.

“ thank you, “ she said as she skipped away with a bag allmost full of candy. She smiled and then went into a portal going to find the next house to trick or treat

"Wow, that's a fantastic costume." Sandra approved of the unique and elaborate choice, as she offered out some candy to fill the young boy's pillowcase.

Sascha skipped up to this house with all of her usual Halloween enthusiasm. Her costume was a slightly absurd array of mismatched items - a cat onesy with the hood pulled up, a sugar skull mask that obscured her whole face, jester shoes, neon pink gloves, and sparkly fairy wings that fluttered as she moved. Mismatched costumes were the most fun, in her opinion, even if a lot of people gave her weird looks for them.
Giving a sympathetic glance to the dismal pumpkins, and a friendly pat to the plastic skeleton's head, the girl knocked on the door of the house. She held out her brown paper bag, which had a slightly crooked smiling ghost drawn on it with purple marker.
"Trick-or-Treat!!"

"Wow, that's an amazing costume." Sandra nodded in approval to Sascha, and placed a handful of candy into Sascha's bag. "Happy Halloween."

"Thanks!!" Sascha beamed behind her mask, swinging her bag excitedly from side to side. "I like your door-skeleton! And um... well the pumpkins do look a bit sad, but the spirit is there which is great!" She added. She meant the compliments genuinely, though internally reprimanded herself for calling the pumpkins 'sad', even if it was the truth.

"It's okay. They kinda got a bit...damaged...when I was getting them."

"Oh.." Sascha nodded sympathetically. "Still, I think it's cool that you decorated! Some people don't even bother to try."

"I did the best I could while with child." Sandra grins. "Have a safe and fun halloween, okay?"
