[OPEN LOG] Halloween

[xpuri_mod]

Halloween night sees the Academy grounds lit up with lights from hundreds of flickering jack-o-lanterns as they illuminate the paths through the gardens and maze. Inside the school, the largest (above ground) sports hall and games room have been decorated still further with streamers and multicoloured lights. In the latter location, a band stand

"...stupid holiday..."

The whole night was ruined because of this. Jackal and Inui could have at least blown up a candy shop and have him be a replacement in there, but oh no, they had to go ahead and decapitate the freakin' statue!!

Mukahi sighed, shifting in place where he sat, his left buttock already falling asleep even though it wasn't even an hour in. He had the most awesome costume planned out too, with which he was supposed to go out into the nearby neighborhoods, find the youngest kids to pick on, and scare them into giving him their candy. But he had to scrap all that and figure out something else, because no way was he going to stand around for seven hours heavy with props.

Replacing a statue, he decided to go as a statue: The Thinker. This way, he was allowed to sit the entire night, chin propped up on his knuckles, and maybe catch a few naps if he could do so without falling over. And, he could glare all he wanted at the school gates (a.k.a. the Gates of Hell, appropriately) and mentally will the thing to burst into flames and take the rest of the school down with it. He had contemplated going all the way with the depiction of the original statue in the nude, but decided that little act of defiance wasn't worth having his... toes... freeze and fall off, so instead of slathering dark grey body paint all over his body, he settled for just his face, arms and legs, wearing a dark grey jacket and pants over the rest of his body, bright red hair clashing horribly where it stood out so glaringly.

He had a large rock and everything he had brought over to sit upon, and, as he didn't want to have to speak with anybody besides mouthing them off once in a while if he got ticked off enough, a placard upon which he described his costume: "The Thinker. With blood and brain matter spilling out from the top of the head, as what happens when you think too much. Fair warning to you all."

Looking at the statue, D'Artagnan finally figured out what was missing. With a grin he went to find Kite to see if he could perhaps get a pigeon to come out and keep Gakuto company.

...Mukahi really did not like the look of that grin...

Finally reaching the whereabouts of who he was convinced was the criminal, Marui yelled,

"Oi, Mukahi, you bastard! The fortune teller told me you were the one who ate the roof of my gingerbread house!"

[jumpaday]

"Are you stupid!?" Mukahi snarled back, irritation running high tonight, "What part of you thinks I can move from this spot, let alone eat your stupid house!?" Physically, he was capable of moving, yes, but with the consequence of having his father called, his feet might just as well be pinned to the ground, he hadn't moved since he arrived.

[tensai_daroi]

"Ha? It can only be you! I bet you don't have an alibi either pigeons can't talk (unless you're Kite) If you're a man, admit it! Or fight me to the death!" Marui fiercely retorted challenging the other redhead.

[jumpaday]

"My alibi is that I've been standing here the past freakin' however many hours!!" Mukahi shouted back, waving his hands at the rock he was sitting on, as if it were made of super glue. "And I could totally take you on-- don't think I can't!!"

[tensai_daroi]

"Alright, be prepared to face defeat at the hands of the sweet genius. I challenge you to a pie-eating contest at my bake stand. Be there in 15 minutes.. or can't you? Scared you'll lose?" Marui provoked with a smirk.

[jumpaday]

"I can't!" Mukahi proclaimed, because there was no reason saying otherwise. "How about you come here and eat my fist!!"

[tensai_daroi]

"Hahaha, you won't move because you're afraid of what some old witch might do? So if I stand just over here, I can punch you cuz I'm taller and have longer arms but you can't punch back? Epic." Marui mocked with a slight chuckle.

[jumpaday]

Mukahi sneered. "Just try it."

That was what they all thought, all of those he had ever gotten into scraps with in his life, that just because he was smaller and weaker they would be able to beat him up easily. But he had learnt tricks along the way, and was in no way opposed to fighting dirty either, especially when he's not the one throwing the first punch and therefore could in no way be blamed for any of this.

Marui took his hands out of his pockets and steadied his hand, aiming straight for the face. Whoosh.. splat Right in the mouth! What looked like dark red blood and small chunks of stained flesh sputtered down Mukahi's chin.

"It's good, isn't it?" The sweet genius asked a rhetorical question. He knew his red velvet cake scraps and ends were just as delicious as the main cake.

[jumpaday]

"Asdflkhj," Mukahi spluttered, wiping the cake off his mouth and splattering it everywhere. "What the heck is--- is that cake!?" He stared, moist chunks of red velvet at his feet and syrup down his front... and burst out laughing. "Holy hell, I thought my jaw exploded or something!!"

[tensai_daroi]

"Ah~ What a waste!" Marui cried, gasping at the spilt cake on the floor. "But yeah, some people have described my flavors as explosions~"

[jumpaday]

Mukahi licked his lips before wiping the rest of the frosting off on his jacket sleeve, leaving a dark red smear across the length, but nothing that couldn't be washed off later. "Oi. If you were planning on feeding me, I'd prefer it on a plate next time."

[tensai_daroi]

"I have plates back at the bake stand, don't you want more cake? Let's finish this!" Marui taunted again, tossing a piece of delicious cake into his own mouth and licking the dark red glaze on the corner of his lip.
