6: {In Which Hanna decides some serious fun is needed} [Video / Audio, you poor unforunate souls]

[gneeisnotanoise]

[Hanna is officially tired of languishing around and doing nothing. Three days of the brig was pretty bad-- disgusting, weird, ridiculously fascinating to be honest, but pretty bad-- but adding yellow fever for all of that time as well as another three days? Hanna's strong, he's a survivor, but it was a bit much; it took another day or so of sleep

What is this... Halloween... that you speak of?

[gneeisnotanoise]

Halloween's like... AWESOME, everyone dresses up in costumes and tries to either scare each other or just have fun. You can get candy and stuff and go to parties-- all sorts of things. Best. Holiday. Ever.

[skinniest_too]

Ooooh, that makes a little more sense. Well, not sense, but I kind of get it... except that I don't, but you get what I mean.

And this is a... holiday? Meaning you worship something for it?

[There's already a plan to put this holiday into motion on Irk whenever he gets back formulating in Purple's little brain.]

[gneeisnotanoise]

No, you don't worship-- well, uh, I mean, some people worship like, the pagan arts and stuff, but niiiiiiiinety nine percent of people just dress up and get candy and random stuff like that! Pretty fun, as far as holidays go.

[gneeisnotanoise]

Awesome! This is a lot of chocolate on the like, man, make your story good!

[gneeisnotanoise]

Dude.

No.

TELL ME MORE.

[JOEY IS GOING TO BE A SEAL FOR HALLOWEEN HA HA HA HA HA

I have stories, but they're not scary.

Re: [audio]

[gneeisnotanoise]

Are they fun? Fun works, too!

[ortort]

That depends... umm.

[Thinking on it now, the stories she learned were meant to teach young the horrors of humankind. A lot of them are pretty gory or raunchy. Or both.]

Do you believe in karma?

[audio]

[gneeisnotanoise]

Lady, I believe in everything.

[He laughs.]

[invincibleyknow]

[Have an Asuka! He's just kind of staring at his comm. What...]

What in the name of the Maiden was that?

[gneeisnotanoise]

That, my friend, was the STRANGE and EXOTIC ritual called the THRILLER DANCE.]

[Beat.]

'Cause this is THRILLER! Thriller night!

[And he's off singing again. Sorry, Asuka, he can hit the high notes, but they're damn squeaky.]

[invincibleyknow]

[Asuka takes a moment to contemplate this. But then:]

A ritual? For what? What's it supposed to do?

[It's weeeeeeeeeird. But at the same time, he's trying not to laugh, either. Just--what?]

[gneeisnotanoise]

I was joking! I was kidding-- it's just-- it's a song, on my world, by a very popular singer-dude.

[wutaiwarhero]

[Being a recent arrival from a world with no Halloween, Sephiroth is the most confused ever. That compounded with all his other confusion means he actually gets to ask.]

What holiday is this?

[gneeisnotanoise]

Halloween, bro!

[.....yes, Sephiroth, Hanna just called you bro.]

[wutaiwarhero]

[B|] And what is Halloween, "bro"?

[gneeisnotanoise]

Ah, it's-- it's a holiday back home were we all dress up and scare the shit out of each other and get candy!

[More or less....]
