SLEEPOVER - GENERAL

[topslug]

[ Whatever doesn't fit anywhere else: party games, general mingling, more traditional ghost storytelling.

There are sleeping bags, blankets, and pillows spread out for everyone, and hopefully you were smart enough to bring your own change of clothes and a toothbrush. Bringing extra food's a good way of making sure you stay popular. ]

[ If you're surprised to see Yako (still) eating, you clearly don't know her very well. She's currently sitting cross-legged on the end of her sleeping bag, looking tired but in a pleasant sort of way-- she doesn't plan on participating in most of the games because she has to set up the NCC for tomorrow, and she'll need the time and energy for that. Mostly, she's keeping a sharp eye out for any signs of trouble. She's changed her clothes, at least, so she's no longer covered in the pumpkin gunk from Grell's little spree earlier.

Still, she won't mind being chatted at while she watches people play twister or whatever it is they're up to as the night winds down. ]

[Rin is also snacking here and there. She's probably going to have a headache tomorrow from so much sugar and relatively little of substance, but hey, it's fun for the moment. She scoots over to Yako in fairly short order, eying the other girl calmly and curiously.]

Not interested in games?

[topslug]

[ Hey, if you can't fall into a sugar coma on Halloween, when can you? Yako clutches at her belly dramatically, shaking her head. ]

Honestly? I've had so much candy it feels like I might start barfing rainbows if I move another inch. [ A gross exaggeration-- Yako's never had so much food she couldn't move-- but it's a good enough excuse to stay still. ]

[Rin takes it at face value anyway and grins!]

I think the candy is the best part of this holiday. Haha, no one thinks twice about loading up on it either.

[topslug]

[ Well, really, Yako never thinks twice about loading up on food, but... ]

Having a holiday is a pretty good excuse for a lot of things. Do you have a favorite one?

[payback]

Oh, well... [Briefly Rin looks hesitant.] None of these are really mine, y'know? I miss the festivals that used to be at home, though. Those were always fun...
