ϡ - Chapter Sixteen; this is halloween [voice/action]

[folkloristic]

Halloween...Halloween. [ He sounds contemplative and hums a little before continuing. ] What to say about it. [ A pause there's the sounds of something be unwrapped probably a candy knowing Helios's sweet tooth. Then almost automatically there's the sound of 'mmm' in the silent background. How has he not gotten a cavity yet? ] I do hope the ghosts

Comments

[slaying]

[In one of her rare leaf-raking breaks.]

I like the candy apples.

[folkloristic]

[ He makes a sound of agreement to that. ]

An excellent choice if I do say so myself. They're delicious I'll have to agree!

[slaying]

Though...is that really all true? The Halloween stuff?

[folkloristic]

Mmm. Quite true! It's all rather fascinating isn't it? [ Unless some Celtic deities were lying to him. ]

[polishrule]

I like the chocolate barrels with booze in them!!

[He's not even kidding.]

[WRITTEN]

[folkloristic]

Oh you mean those miniature liquor bottles made out of chocolate? I've had those before, they're actually not bad!

[ Helios getting drunk off them can you imagine? ]

[WRITTEN]

[polishrule]

Theyre so yummy! Do they have them here?

[The thought is a little terrifying to imagine.]

[WRITTEN]

[folkloristic]

I'm not sure. A venture to the store in town might be in order.

[consultmybooks]

Not really much of a candy person, I'm afraid.

Cider is nice, though.

[Voice]

[folkloristic]

Ah Giles! You sound better from the last time we spoke. [ A pause. ]

Not much of a candy person...but it's delicious! [ Says the thirty-two year old man. ] Warmed apple cider is nice. I do like the more sweetened version from time to time.

[consultmybooks]

I am, thanks. Raine managed to get me back on my feet. [Moving on...] It's especially nice when the weather gets cold. Unfortunately, the weather never does get cold in California. [He is still grumpy about this, and always will be]

[Voice]

[folkloristic]

Good good I'm glad to hear! [ He laughs. ] Romania gets...quite cold in the winter. Ah, the Retezat mountains this time of year were always beautiful to look at. You should come and visit one of these days to get a taste of a nice cold winter. [ He says that with humor in his voice and a light laugh to accompany it. ]

[Spirits could cross back over from the world of the dead? Sounds a little like Luceti's weird ass abilities.]

You sure know a lot about Halloween. You a big history guy?

[voice]

[folkloristic]

Oh well...something like that. I have a few friends who are very much into it they simply told me much of what you just heard. But in all honesty Halloween happens to be one of my favorite holidays. I couldn't help but share with everyone.

Re: [voice]

[not_a_bluesbro]

Aaaah, the scary background behind it doesn't bother you, then? Though I have to admit, all this candy is pretty great-I wish every world had a holiday that has so much of it.

[voice]

[folkloristic]

Oh not really. It's not so bad. [ Haha he's seen worse things really. ] Ah are you not from Earth then?

[amber_arcangel]

Honey candy! [Which is the only kind of food she can eat, but shhh.]

[folkloristic]

Honey candy? I don't think I've ever had something like that before. It does sound good though.

[amber_arcangel]

Really? They are good!

[folkloristic]

I won't deny your word on that! I've had tea with honey before among other things but never as a candy.
