fun with costumes [OPEN]

Who: You! Everyone else! Oh and also Hornet is here too, somewhere.
What: Shopping! Costume workshops!
When: The days leading up to Halloween celebrations (23-29 October)
Where: Soleil and the Academy campus!



A. Shopping Trip

[ Soleil is buzzing with activity as students flock to prepare for Halloween. Whether it's to marvel at what other people have left behind, to marvel at what's been donated in previous years, or you're just trying to pick a costume at all, you have no shortage of creations to gaze upon - and no shortage of your peers to judge them, either.

You can sometimes catch Hornet here, in the days that come, squinting suspiciously at the insect costumes. She mutters and paces, tugging at them like they're personally offensive to her.

B. Necessary Modifications

[ For those of a more crafty persuasion, the Academy has opened some usually-vacant classrooms as a makeshift work area for designing and creating your own costumes, or making modifications of your own.

Hornet has taken over a corner of one of the rooms. She's almost a permanent fixture of the workshop, as she sews and cuts with an intensity she usually only reserves for battles.

C. Wildcard

[ You can use this to just bother Hornet, or make up your own prompts. Go wild and treat this as a mingle log! ]

Do people not normally feel like that if someone looks ridiculous enough?

It wouldn't be their business, would it? Should I feel shame for what someone else is wearing? I'm hardly the one wearing it in the first place, but in the second, if one wishes to wear something different that remains to be their choice! Why, I may have been surprised by much beach fashion before coming here- the modern day has changed quite a bit since my own time- but I'll not shame or judge them for that! It's what they chose to wear after all! And what made them happy!

[As usual, Jonathan has the irresistible urge to be incredibly dramatic and optimistic about matters.] If dressing as a foam burger was what you wished, then it was the best choice!

[She laughs a little at that.]

It seems it's important to everyone, at this rate. Well, I shall persevere, even if this whole thing is embarrassing.

If you need any assistance, I could certainly try to lend a hand, [He of course offers.]

...goodness, I certainly hope none of the staff intend to question my own 'costume' choices...
