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.]

[ He strikes a pose, kinda like this for a second. What a fucking nerd. ]

Thanks. I think so, too.

[helladoptera]

[ Thank God Diego isn't here to see that. ]

I guess everyone really did get costumes.

[nightcure]

Yeah, looks like it. Or enough clothes to make a costume.

[helladoptera]

Plenty of clothes sure have been showing up. I got this sweet suit last week.

[nightcure]

Yeah? You'll have to wear it some time. I bet it'd look good on you.

[helladoptera]

Better than the costume I got this week, that's for sure.

[nightcure]

...

What'd you get?

[ whose ass does he have to kick ]

[helladoptera]

It's... a shitty joke. That's all.

[nightcure]

[ He's quiet for a moment before ruffling her hair lightly. ]

They're bastards, whoever keeps sending this stuff.

[helladoptera]

Yeah, a little bit.

[ She bites her lip. ]

And whoever they are... I think they know our missing memories. At least some of what happened in them.

[nightcure]

... Yeah. That's the part that pisses me off the most.

[ butttt. ]

... But we're supposed to have fun tonight, yeah? You do any dancing?
