MC Dorms: 2009: Home for the Holidays.

[The Count]

So, everyone/anyone looking forward to the party? The one in Cait's fic is much better (batty bat eyes her for an update), but we can still have some fun, even if it's just a few of us this year.

Kelly (sobbing in room 2)

Pearl (fixing breakfast for the Dorm in the common room): What's up with her?

Newsie (adjusting his glasses): There seems to have been a small setback when she woke up this morning.

Pearl: Setback?

Newsie: That little brown Lab of hers, Bear, apparently amused himself by eating a tissue box, an expensive laptop power cord for the third time, several strange things, and a partridge in a pear tree.

Pearl: -_- You made that last one up, sugah.

Newsie (smirking): I have been known to exhibit a sense of humor every once in awhile.

 

[Muppet Newsgirl]

(Gang has been seeing trick-or-treaters through the haunted house in room 7.)

Scooter: (dressed as Dr. Who, holding a bowl of candy) Bye, thanks for coming, be safe! (to others) Did you see that one girl who had a pencil sticking out of her head?
Erin: (dressed as a secret agent) One way of ensuring you'll always be able to find a pencil, I guess. How did the haunted rooms go, guys?
Nora: (dressed as Eddie Malone from 'The Lost World:') Just fine, but back by the Tale of Two Cities setup in the kitchen, there was this one woman who started waving her knitting around, and yelling for Charles Evremonde's head.
Beige: (dressed as Fishface Fraggle) Yeah, and right after that one group went through the Hound of the Baskerville room, some guy started muttering something about fleas.
Storyteller: (dressed as Sir Blunderbrain) So a success all around - and there was this one man who read off Hamlet's entire "how all occasions do inform against me speech." (gestures to Uncle Deadly's Hamlet portrait) A wonderful dramatic touch.
Scooter: Yeah, but he caused a wicked backup around the River Styx. Who wants to spend the rest of the night watching corny old monster movies and gorging on leftover candy?

 

[Gelfling Girl]

*Delilah and Aly begin leave Room #16*

Floyd: Aren't you girls too old to go trick-or-treating?

Delilah: *dressed as Alice from Alice in Wonderland* And miss out on all the candy?

Aly: *dressed as Cheshire Cat* Yeah, and all the cool costumes. Halloween is so magical!

Trick-or-Threat

The ScareCrow outside Room #1's door raisd his head, spying the goings-on and smiling to himself. Wait, was that scarecrow smiling? Room 1's door opens to reveal a troop of little monsters exiting through the open maws of the demon-faced fireplace. In case you didn't notice, there was a pumpkin symbol on our door as it's opened up to the world of our own brand of ghoulish fun.


Count: Boys and ghouls of every age.
Uncle D: Wouldn't you like to see something strange?
Both, leading the treaters: Come with us and you will see...
This our town of Halloween.

All: This is Halloween, this is Halloween.
Pumpkins scream in the dead of night.
This is Halloween, everybody make a scene.
Trick-or-treat at Erin's, till them neighbors die of fright.
In our town, don't we love it now.
In our town of Halloween.

Lurker: I am the one hiding under your bed.
Teeth ground sharp and eyes glowing red.
Retch: I am the one hiding under your stairs.
Fingers with snakes and spiders in my hair.

Mulch: This is Halloween, this is Halloween.
All: Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween.

Fughetta: In this town, we call home.
Everyone hail to the pumpkin song.

Grim: In this town! Don't we love it now!
Everyone's waiting for the next surprise.
Zombie Cat: Round that corner, hiding in the trashcan.
Something's waiting there to pounce and howl, you scream.

Mulch: This is Halloween.
Three-eyed Monster Kid: Red and black.
Glob: Slimy green.
Yorick: Aren't you scared? Well, that's just fine.

Winona the Witch: Say it once, say it twice.
Take a chance and roll the dice.
Ride with the moon through the dead of night.
*She looks wistfully at the full moon lit night outside, waiting for her opportunity to feel the chill October wind in her raven tresses.

Mulch: Everybody scream, everybody scream.
Fughetta: In our town of Halloween.

Juggulres: I am the clown with the tear-away face.
*Rips his face completely off without falling from his perch upon the one-wheeled unicycle.
Here's the flesh, gone without a trace.
Spooky: I am the Who when you call "who's there?"
Ghostee: I am the wind running through your hair.
Oogie's Shadow: I am the shadow on the moon at night.
Filling your dreams to the brim with fright.

Groan-Ups: This is Halloween, this is Halloween.
Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween.
Creep Kiddies: Halloween, Halloween.

Countess Dahling: Tender lovelings everyvhere.
Count: Life's no fun vithout a good scare.
Devil: That's our job. Sanguina: But we're not mean...
All: In our town of Halloween.

Mulch: In this town, don't we love it now.
Laverne the Gargoyle and Mulch: Everyone's waiting for the next surprise.
Undertaker: Stoned tombs and jacko' lynes, catch you in the back.
Demonling: Make you scream like a banshee...
All: Make you jump out of your skin! ! !

Creeper: This is Halloween.
UD: Won't you please make way for a very special guy?
Monsters: All know Ed is king of the pumpkin patch.
Everyone hail to the Pumpkin King.

*Ed makes his way, last but most importantly, sporting his Halloween Town suit with the bat-collar and glowing white skeletal pinstriping. He waves a bone-encased hand at passers-by, tossing a few small fireworks skulls here and there heralding the procession, now winding down as they approach Room 7.
Groan-Ups: This is Halloween, this is Halloween.
Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween.

Sibella: In this town, we call home.
Attracophney and Malika then join her, completing the trio of sweet baby bat vampiress, spiderling, and goblin girl.
Trio: Everyone hail to the pumpkin song.

Ed: Hello, hope we're not too late to take a tour through your various haunts. And yes Scooter, I know these aren't your monsters, I brought some of my own. *Wicked grin.

 

[RedPiggy]

Kelly (dressed as Heather from Silent Hill 3): But I HATE candy ....

Newsie (dressed as Ghost Rider): I thought you hated pepperoni pizzas.

Kelly (nods): I hate candy more .... *sniffle*

Spike (dressed normally): I can't say no ta free candy.

Cotterpin (dressed as Ursula, to Spike): Why didn't you wear a costume?

Spike (smirks): Da Scourge o' Da Swamp doesn't NEED a scary costume.

Pearl (dressed as Dolly Parton): Howdy folks! Let's get on with the business of scarin' the young-un's.

 

[The Count]

*Fatatatita returns with some more goodies, and another lump of wax for candlemaking in the cauldron o' cobwebs. If you look above, we have two golden candles flanking a third central cobwebbed higher-up waxstick. The party's moved off to get some other treats elsewhere.

 

[RedPiggy]

*everyone from room 2 has a clipboard and is madly taking down notes*

Pearl: Okay, run us by that lil' story o' yours again?

Kelly (inhales): Okay, here goes nothing ... Heather is actually Cheryl, who is the reincarnation of Alessa, who was used by some sick cult to birth a demon-god thingie with a goat's head and bat wings, but that didn't really work out that well, so Claudia who is a really, REALLY sad woman decides to lure Heather back to Silent Hill so she can re-awaken the Alessa inside of her, but ends up becoming the vessel for the demon-god herself until Heather kills her. *inhales again* Anyone lost?

*everyone raises their hands*

Kelly (sighs, facepalms)

 

[The Count]

Hmm... Goat-headed bat-winged demon thing. Sounds like the Chupacabra. *Monsters are singing a round of Monster Mash as they continue knocking on doors, careful not to stray too far from their separate groups.

 

[RedPiggy]

Kelly (nods, hands Ed a Plot Analysis): Man, Silent Hill is one VERY deep game ....
