the zombies were having fun, the party had just begun

[Early on Thursday, everyone (not including Blaze, but including Price) receives a handwritten invitation slipped under their door.]

COSTUME PARTY + STORYTELLING Today in the mess hall, 5:00 PM-whenever everyone gets tired Please join us for costume judging and the chance to win a prize. Refreshments will be provided.

[At the appointed time in the mess hall, there are some refreshments made by Noctis, Cheryl, and Oda - Oda's share includes curry, naturally, but also sandwiches and other light fare, and some chocolate chip cookies that have come out lumpy but edible. He's also put up some orange and black streamers in an attempt at party decorating.

One of the tables has a bunch of benefactor regains on it - that's definitely the prizes. Win a brand new car! Or a heckton of chocolate!

Storytelling will be later in the evening. Win prizes for that too, it's not like Oda can use most of his stuff. And maybe it'll keep people's minds off tomorrow, for a little while.]

Be right back...

[He'll walk out to his cell for a bit.]

[...he's gonna go make more sandwiches while Leon's gone.]

[He comes back wearing... something that actually looks nice on him.]

... What do you think?

You look very dashing.

[A regular swashbuckler.]

Thanks...

Still feels a bit weird. [Since he's more into punk than pirate. Plus the whole space pirate situation.]

...Because of Blaze? He's a different kind of pirate. He doesn't count.

Well... Sort of.

This really ain't my style, though.

...It's nice to experiment sometimes, I think? I don't know much about style.

[SHRUG.]

So... What gave you the idea for the costume party thing? This is, like, the second time you hosted any kinda party.

We all got costumes. So if I was going to throw a party, a costume party makes sense.

[...At least, it does to him.]

Yep. When you put it that way, it does...

... Wait, what if this is why they gave us the costumes in the first place?

To cheer us up? ...Is it working?

Uh...

[He glances at the other costumed peeps.]

I think it's just making us look stupid.

Oh. ...That's too bad.

[Some of them look okay...]
