22nd: The Pumpkins of Haruhi Suzumiya

Oct 25, 2011 17:13

[Action]

[So things have gotten a bit chaotic in the village and... the moon doesn't look good, masks. Obviously an experiment all around. Haruhi was going to go with Leon's suggestion about carving the pumpkins with the Brigade (maybe make a contest out of it) but the fact is that in light of the current situation, that just doesn't seem to be ( Read more... )

winry: good domestic values, back on the homefront..., ch-ch-changes, @roy mustang, @kurt wagner, going for 21st century girl, @edward elric, halloween must always suck, @buffy summers, @claude c. kenny, @winry rockbell

[ unmasked, buffy comes a-wandering by all these pumpkin works. she pauses -- watches -- and hesitates just on the cusp of saying hello. ]

[Winry, meanwhile, is slicing through the top of a pumpkin in a circle around the steam. She's making a hole so they can eventually pull out the guts! This blond had yet to notice the hesitating woman.]

[Haruhi, meanwhile, is working on scooping guts out of her own into a big popcorn bowl thing next to her. It's a labor intensive thing, which is why she's not, you know, noticing Buffy]

...That's a good idea.

[ she eventually speaks up -- narrating her realization that jilly would probably enjoy the same activity. faux-casual, she advances a little bit closer. ]

[Just what is going on over here? Edward's just out for a walk to ponder what could be done about the moon if it gets too close to the enclosure when she notices the picnic going on not far off. With an uplifted brow, she pauses, considers her options, and then wanders over. No harm in asking, right?]

You guys are cutting up pumpkins at a time like this?

crytearsofjoy October 27 2011, 01:02:29 UTC

Why not? It's for the holiday. [She says with her hand full of pumpkin guts and seeds.]

godbent October 27 2011, 01:25:43 UTC

Not to mention nothing bad has happened yet.

[Her own hands have a knife in hand]

Holiday? Is there some kind of moon apocalypse holiday that I don't know about?

[The moon is a little creepy. Okay, it's a lot creepy, but there isn't anything about this place that's remotely normal, so panicking over it seems a little out of sorts when, if he panicked over all the weird or creepy things, he would have had a mental breakdown by now.

And so he's not panicking.

Actually, the little picnic with pumpkins has caught his attention moreso than anything else at the moment, if just because he really doesn't understand the whys of carving them up. Holidays, sadly, aren't something Amestris really has in any sort of abundance... if any at all. He's a little hesitant about approaching the girls, but he won't understand the reasons for it unless he asks, right? Curiosity has gotten the best of him.]

Ah, excuse me... I apologize if I'm interrupting anything, but if you don't mind my asking, what are you doing?

[action] crytearsofjoy October 27 2011, 01:03:29 UTC

[-Oh, it's Mr. Mustang! Winry smiles up at him from her work.] We're making these pumpkins into lanterns.

[action] godbent October 27 2011, 01:26:55 UTC

It's something they do in Amer- on Earth.

[She clarifies. she doesn't look up at the guy though, she's intent on carving this cat into her own]

[action] infireandflame October 28 2011, 03:17:34 UTC

Interesting...

[So much skepticism here, though.]

...So on Earth, people randomly carve designs in pumpkins which then turns them into lanterns? Wouldn't it be simpler to buy a lantern instead?

[Oh, are those pumpkins? How nice! It's great to see people being festive despite all the weird stuff going on. Claude decides to check them out, maybe compliment the girls on their work... You know, the usual.

Unfortunately, the mask he got stuck with won't make this an easy task. You'll have to forgive him for accidentally tripping over one of your pumpkins.]

Wh-whoa!

[How did that even get there?]

crytearsofjoy October 28 2011, 00:59:25 UTC

H-hey, be careful! Those aren't exactly unbreakable! [Don't bruise or smash her pumpkins!]

godbent October 28 2011, 02:12:40 UTC

[And Haruhi goes to che- oh it's not broken. But this guy just tripped over... a pumpkin. That's impressive. Jeez, wow.]

Wow.

mirrorblade October 28 2011, 05:12:08 UTC

[Claude almost manages to catch himself and not fall flat on his face. But for some odd reason, he's feeling incredibly unlucky lately, so falling is exactly what he does.

Welp.

He quickly rolls over and sits up, mumbling a few, "Ow, ow ow."s before speaking up to the girls.]

S-sorry about that. I-I didn't break it, did I?

[When Kurt approaches the two of them, he has a Bil mask on. He's only pretending to be affected by it.]

Oh! Goodness, what a lovely young blonde. And... another girl. Marvelous.

crytearsofjoy October 28 2011, 00:57:44 UTC

Kurt? [As she says that the girl yanks the large knife she's using out of the pumpkin.]

godbent October 28 2011, 02:13:10 UTC

[Look and- oh. That's... a mask]

Hey.

onebluebamf November 2 2011, 02:30:21 UTC

[He'll just mosey on over, looking at the pumpkins. Dropping the Bil act.]

Wow. You guys are being pretty chill... I mean, considering. [He spares a cautious look upward.]
