08 || We're Off to See the Wiz-- Wait...

[camo_prince]

Damnit, I had my own ideas about a costume, stupid island!

And why a scarecrow? That doesn't make any sense and Okurimakuri won't stop eating the costume! And why are there monkey ears, a hat, a tail and wings strapped onto a sheep? What kind of freaky animal is part monkey, part bat and part sheep or whatever?!

Che, and go figure that we get stuck inside weird costumes out of nowhere ... that really should weird me out more than the costume itself, huh? and I get something that doesn't make any sense even!

Some people better be grateful they aren't trapped with anything really dumb...

Does anyone know where the candy came from, by the way? I'm a little wary of eating it given, ya know, that I don't know where the hell it came from.

If I'm gonna shed straw for the next several days, at least I don't have to buy the stupid sheep food maybe? Though, it already ate some of the candy!

Ugh. Why does this have to be so itchy?



[Filter: Private; easily hackable to friends]

I wonder what Ren's been dressed up as....?

Some kind of prince or royalty, I bet. Seems the most fitting for his bearing or something.

Guess I'll find out at work. I guess that makes the fact that I have to go out in public in this not so bad.




(( OOC: Yeah, Emil's totally inspired this one XD Maguri is dressed as the scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz - ya know the "brainless," bumbling, kind one XD; And to match, Okurimakuri is "dressed" as a flying monkey. You know, pet of the Wicked Witch and all! >D Oh and Okurimakuri ate 1 serving of Maguri's candy bag, leaving him with only 4. ))

((ooc: Hibari wins points for guessing!))

Why don't you go stalk him? Of course then I'd have to arrest you.

[Oh how kind of you! XPPP~~]

[camo-prince.livejournal.com]

(( OOC: XD He does win points! *gives Baribari candy as a prize* ))


I-I'm not going to stalk him! I see him at work anyway, so I wouldn't have to anyway.

Nevermind that he's the reason I even took that job at all...

[He knows.]

[kamikorosu-yo.livejournal.com]

Well. Just working with him is a form of stalking I suppose.

I should arrest you. *Ohh how sinister he looked, swinging those handcuffs around on a finger.*

Re: [He knows.]

[camo-prince.livejournal.com]

E-EH?!

[kamikorosu-yo.livejournal.com]

You heard me. You might be a danger to the community.

I need to arrest you. Turn around and put your hands behind your back.

[camo-prince.livejournal.com]

N-NO! *Why, yes, he's flailing and backing up a few steps now* I'm not dangerous to anyone, you said so yourself basically! Besides, y-you're the one who is telling people to stalk others, maybe you're the danger to the community!

I mean a sheep bullies me most days!

[kamikorosu-yo.livejournal.com]

Accusing a police officer of being a danger to the community? Now you definitely need to be thrown in prison.

Don't worry - they won't beat you too badly. I trained the prisoners well, back when I was a jail guard.

If our costumes have any meaning at all . . . Then I would find the scarecrow to be little more than a shallow mockery of a man, recognizable as a mere shadow of true substance, a false front that fools only those less intelligent than the scarecrow itself.

That is not to say that our costumes have any meaning at all, of course.

[camo-prince.livejournal.com]

. . .

I can't tell if you are making fun of me or not!

I think I'm going to assume they don't have any meaning...

[thelostseraph.livejournal.com]

To be honest, I don't really find my own costume all too surprising.

((Ledah is dressed up like a stereotypical Catholic church bishop.))

[camo-prince.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm not not a person, so mine doesn't make any sense then.

No matter what Hibari keeps saying, che!

...Are you dressed up as some kind of church guy?

[chaos-squirrel.livejournal.com]

You knew there were going to be costumes?

It beats me how any of this happened at all, though. Weird costumes and candy?

[camo-prince.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah, I heard everyone saying they were going to dress up for Halloween anyway since it's at the end of this week. I guess whatever is in charge here decided for us though.

The candy is part of Halloween too, but I don't know if I trust it yet or not. Since it just appeared out of nowhere like the costumes, you know?

[chaos-squirrel.livejournal.com]

I don't even know what Halloween is supposed to be. I've heard people talking about it and I get that it's some sort of celebration, but I never really understood what it was about or how it related to all this.

[camo-prince.livejournal.com]

(( OOC: Sorry this took so long to get back to! ))

People dress up and have parties and there is lots of candy. What's not to get? It's not like a big deal or anything as far as I know, but maybe it is other places like here.

I don't get it either, honestly. That's just all I know about it.

[chaos-squirrel.livejournal.com]

That's it? Well, that would explain it. Thank you! That's more than I've heard from anyone else so far.

[A boy dressed as the Tin Man runs up.]

Trick or treat!

[camo-prince.livejournal.com]

Huh?

Another really bizarre costume!

You mean you want candy, kid? Aren't you a little early...?

*The teen roots around in one of his overly large overall pockets and fishes out some of the candy from that bag (he had to keep it with him or that damn sheep would finish it all off).*

Eh, here, I guess. Happy Halloween or something.

*He hands over some of the candy to the boy.*

[memento-mods.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[The boy runs off.]
