If you've been here a while, you know one thing already. Don't touch the tea. The tea in this place seems to have strange effects on people. The Complex isn't happy that people are avoiding the teas though. So it's decided to change things up a bit.

There's a party going on today. Streamers are in the trees, banners hanging on the buildings. There's fstive music playing somewhere. It certainly seems like a fun time. There's a table laid out with foods of all kinds. In the far corner, of course, is the area where the tea table is. It's by far the most decked out area, as if trying to beckon the renters towards it.

Chocolate Cake:
Ever wonder what Haru Sohma was feeling when he switched to Black Haru? Ever wanted to be like that, to act recklessly, flirt with cute girls like Tohru without shame, and go completely beserk at a moment's notice? No? Well too bad, because after eating some of the chocolate now you'll be exactly like that.

Lemon Scones:

Ever heard the expression "Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach"? Well, get ready to experience the wonders of professorhood! You are now decked out like a college professor and there are years of wisdom in your mind. It's up to you how you "teach" others and your specialty is based on your personality.

Butter Peacan Pie:
Your on fire today. No. Literally, you're on fire! There is no specific reason you're on fire. It doesn't hurt. It doesn't even feel warm. But you better hope someone else notices and puts it out before you lose all your hair--or worse, your clothes.

Banana Cream Pie:
Silly, goofy, wacky, zany. Words that describe fun, outgoing people who love to make others laugh. And now you're one of those people. It's your mission to make everyone laugh--without cracking a smile. Will you succeed? Not likely. But it will be hilarious to see you try.

Cherry Coke/Cherry Pepsi:
Sherloch Holmes was the greatest detective that ever was. And after having this drink, it's now your goal to out do him! So find a mystery to solve, do it like a don, and prove once and for all you are better than Sherloch Holmes! After all, could he solve the mystery of the disappearing sponge in the kitchen?
Fruit Punch:
Be careful with the punch. It's not normal. In fact, it's been dosed with something special. Maybe it's aphrodisiacs, maybe it's love potion, it could even be truth syrum! Whatever it is, it seems to have different effects on different people. Just be careful you don't have too much. You might start having hallucinations or suffer from severe delusions.

Candy Corn:
Ever wish every day could be halloween? Then here's your wish come true! Ghosts and ghouls are now your best friends. Zombies follow you every where. Vampires stalk you through the shadows. And--are you wearing a duck costume? Yes, you're stuck in a ridiculous looking halloween costume while you're forced to talk to Frankenstein's monster about love. It's in a lovely bucket decorates with cute little bats and ghosts.

Assorted Jelly Beans:
Every jelly bean tastes different. And every jelly bean turns you into someone else. Unfortunately, that someone else happens to be from the world of Harry Potter! You ate a pina colada? Hello, Professor Dumbledor. You had some cotton candy? There's Ron Wesely! But even though you look like Harry Potter on the outside, your personality hasn't changed a bit! These are in a rainbow bucket. Note: If you don't know Harry Potter, your welcome to use other characters.

Skittles:
"Skittles, taste the rainbow." That's how the advertisement goes, right? Well, who knew they meant it so literally! Better be careful eating the skittles or you'll turn into a real rainbow!

Raining Glitter:
So you thought you were smart. You thought you could avoid all this by standing on the sidelines and watching the other poor sops eat the food. You knew something was wrong with it. Well, you were wrong! You're not lucky at all today, punk. For daring to deny the Complex, it rains down glitter upon you. Now you're sparkly. Great. And--wait a second. Are your clothes turning pink? And your hair? And your eyes! Damn it, the glitter turned you into what looks like a walking version of a pink crayon!
Note: Colors will vary depending on muse.

And then, of course, there's the pies that Gamzee made. Over there, in their own special little corner.

Just...what?

Is this some kind of horrible novelty candy or something?

He's...

Yeah. Not going to touch that stuff, though he's going to keep staring at it, stupefied. Any other six-sweep-old-troll would probably flip out like psychotic wigglers right about now, and run away, but Gamzee's got a lot less shame working through his thinkpan. Things take a while to sink in... Who just leaves that kind of stuff out?

And then he sees the jellybeans.
In colorful buckets.

""

His thinkpan is officially broken.
...What kind of dirty party has he ended up at?
From: [identity profile] mini-melody.livejournal.com
Considering the candy corn put him in a skeleton costume, he thinks you must be a kid in a costume too, Gamzee. So he's not scared. Sort of. Okay, a little. But your costume looks so scary! Like a demon clown!

Still, there aren't many kids around. He's been kinda lonely. And you look really scared. Maybe he can help. Although he's pretty sure your older than him.

"It's okay, y'know. All this stuff isn't real. It's all just decorations and costumes."

Completely misunderstands.

Myde. XD

This...calms the flipout slightly.

You stare at eachother for a good thirty seconds before Gamzee blinks.

The honking... kind of alarms him at first. And on some level facinates him. He looks pretty uncertain for a moment. But then he tries to smile because you seem pretty sad to him and he wants to make you see it's okay.

"I know it's kinda scary. But it'll be okay. It's a lot of fun too. Have you ever celebrated Halloween before?"

He knows some people around here haven't. Maybe your one of them. He goes on chattering assuming you haven't.

"We get to do trick or treating. And get lots of candy. You can go trick or treating with me if you want. I'll show you how to do it if you don't know."

He seems to realize something.

"Oh yeah. I'm Myde. What's your name?"

What? No! He's not touching one of Gamzee's pies. Who knows what funky ingredients are in it? No, he's perfectly fine with just watching Gamzee allocate like no tomorrow in his strife specibus.



He already said no! It's not happening! And yet…

One little taste wouldn't hurt would it? Just a taste.



He approaches Gamzee. He hasn't really had much interaction with the troll. He knows that he and Karkat get along well--well, as well as anyone can with Karkat. Personally, he thinks that he's an idiot but that's nothing new. He'll probably think the world of him in tomorrow, who knows?

He has a feeling he's going to regret this latter. Then he notices that Gamzee has stopped moving. In fact, he's not even paying attention to the pies anymore. He's just staring at something. Sollux turns to look at what he's staring at--and blushes a pale yellow. Not to mention those things actually in the bucket.

Curious troll is curious when he spots Sollux and Gamzee apparently pretty fixated on something sitting on the table. So of course he comes over to see what's up.

STONER PARTY.

He flies at and clamps both hands over Tavros' eyes, nearly knocking him out of his wheelchair before turning his flipout to Sollux.

Sollux is cool. He's kind of Karkat's best friend, after all. So he's probably the one to turn to for guidance in this crisis.

He is already disgusted by the blatant show of the buckets.



He doesn't want to deal with the bucket problem. Get someone else to deal with it! No, Gamzee, don't--

Now he has to deal with the bucket problem. Obviously, Gamzee's hands are literally full.



He approaches the buckets now. He reaches a hand out to touch the bucket, looking disgusted. He grumbles, picking up the first bucket. He quickly hides it under the table, the tablecloth obscuring it from view. He reaches for the second bucket, looking even more disgusted.

And the second bucket is successfully hidden. Now someone else can deal with the problem. He turns back to Gamzee and points out that he will likely cave Travos face in his he keeps putting all his weight on him to cover his eyes.

Why did he even come over here again?
From: [identity profile] alltakingurnose.livejournal.com


Well, yes, he is confused. And slightly in pain. He reaches up to grab at the hands on his eyes.



He can hear Sollux complaining about something and wonders what those two are up to...
From: [identity profile] off-the-honk.livejournal.com
Letting up? No way, brother. Not until those wicked buckets are safely gone. He can't be having your brain broken all the time, Tavros. He knows how that is. All the important stuff goes wooshing out of the cracks making all this whistling noise...

The moment the obscenity is gone, he brightens up, and lets up, leaning on Tav's shoulder.

""

It doesn't occur to him for a second that you wouldn't want in on the pie party, Tavros. You're special. You're always invited to this kind of thing.

Pie gets slipped into your lap as he reaches over to hand Sollux one, too.
Sollux is winning major brownie points, too. So he gets served a pineapple faygo to go with it, and gets served the drinks first.
From: [identity profile] twinarmaeddons.livejournal.com
He accepts the large slice of pie he's served and eyes it tentatively. He accepts the faygo as well.

He looks up at Travos and Gamzee. Geez those two. If it weren't for what had just happened, he would probably make some comment about them getting a bucket. As it is, he's still too traumatized to mention anything of the sort. He asks, taking a bite.

BLUH

He grimaces, it's not like anything he's ever tasted before. It's not bad but he wouldn't describe it as tasting good either. He takes another bite, not yet noticing the effect it's having on his mind.

*Noms the honey anyway*

From: [identity profile] alltakingurnose.livejournal.com


What? Pie? Is that what you guys were doing? Making pies? Tavros... just kinda stares at it. You guys don't really expect him to eat it right?

He watches Sollux take a bite.

From: [identity profile] off-the-honk.livejournal.com
Gamzee's already chomping away by the time you ask that, and leans forward so he can peer at you really really close because he is NOT the bard of space all sorts of dubious.

"" he manages to say the moment he finishes swallowing the fistful he's crammed in his mouth.

""

Would he lead you both astray?
No. But do you trust his tastebuds?

Date: 2011-10-27 06:04 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] twinarmaeddons.livejournal.com
Sollux is slowly eating the pie. He figures that after all the trouble he went through with the buckets, he might as well enjoy the pie. He takes a few more bites before he feels the effects of the pie overwhelming his mind.

Image

Sollux stares at Gamzee as he invades his personal space. He just stares at him. As if seeing him for the first time. And Sollux has been lost to the pie.

Date: 2011-10-27 06:17 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] alltakingurnose.livejournal.com


Well, Gamzee's never really steered him wrong before. Broken his brain and scared the crap out of him. But never steered him wrong. And Sollux seems to be enjoying it.

So, kind of uncertainly he takes a bite. What's the worse that could happen?

Date: 2011-10-27 06:22 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] off-the-honk.livejournal.com
Getting two of his bros, including one of his best ones to try out the pie is pretty great feeling on this guy's end.

The fog in is brain's really feeling great in addition to all else right now...lets him think happy thoughts.

He keeps munching, and dripping slime on Tavros' shoulder from point to point.

""

Wipes up a dab from Tavros' shoulder as an afterthought, ""

This is a great day. A really great day.

Tavros, of course, gets a faygo, too. Though his is grape flavored.

From: [identity profile] twinarmaeddons.livejournal.com
Sollux is completely gone out of his mind. All those colors and the swirling feelings and everything. It's overwhelming, honestly.

Image

He repeats over and over.

Image

He snaps his fingers, attempting to use his powers to magically find his eyes. Of course, this plan backfires for many reasons. Firstly, because his eyes are on his face, in his head. Where they belong. But mostly because he isn't even thinking about finding his eyes when he snaps his fingers. So it may come as a bit of a surprise when he suddenly is wearing this outfit. He, of course, finds the change fascinating and stares at the sparkling tuxedo. He might have even let a giggle or two escape.

Image

Yeah, he's completely flipped his sponge.

From: [identity profile] alltakingurnose.livejournal.com
After the pie, the faygo isn't so bad. Expecially once the fuzzy haze starts setting in. He doesn't even really mind the mess being made on his shouldor or that Gamzee's still leaning on him.

He's sort of facinated by Sollux's new threads, though. He kinda of faintly wonders in the back of his mind if this is how Gamzee feels all the time.

Then he just... takes another sip of faygo and watches the sparkles for a moment... It's all kind of silly, really. The way the sparkles... sparkle. He can't help but let out a little giggle at it.

Date: 2011-10-27 08:23 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] off-the-honk.livejournal.com
He too watches the sparkles. That's a miracle if he ever saw one: magical suits. And Tavros seems to be lightening up and enjoying himself.

Gamzee is such a good friend.
Friends let other friends do drugs.

Oh!

He reaches for both of you.

""

He picks up a pie pan with a look of solemn ringmastering, and his miracle specibus emerges out of hammerspace miraclespace, in all its colors and glory, for all of you to appreciate.

From: [identity profile] twinarmaeddons.livejournal.com
Sparkles. Sparkles. Everything is so darn sparkly. His looped out brain can't handle the over load of sparkles.



Image

Personal space? He doesn't know what that means. Which he makes abbundantly clear when he suddenly begins patting Gamzee's face.

Date: 2011-10-28 02:15 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] alltakingurnose.livejournal.com
First sparkles, now colors. He is seriously impressed by them. Watching them with a sort of dazed facination.



It looks like a miracle to him, all those colors out of nowhere like that. Or at least, he thinks so. This would have to be what one looks like, right?

XD This... You have made a very happy Gamzee.

Date: 2011-10-28 02:29 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] off-the-honk.livejournal.com
"" Sollux seems to have got his nose. Gamzee just grins, and grabs his face right back so they're staring bug-eyed at one another.

""

One arm gets slung around Sollux's neck, the other around Tavros'.

""

Sollux is pretty happy too. For Sollux.

Date: 2011-10-28 02:54 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] twinarmaeddons.livejournal.com
Sollux admits. He finishes off his pie, ensuring he will at least be around until the end of this show Gamzee wants them to witness.

Image
From: [identity profile] alltakingurnose.livejournal.com
Gamzee and Sollux being all face-grabby is pretty hilarious to him right now. Okay, pretty much everything is hilarious to him right now. Hilarious and beautiful.

When Gamzee makes a remark about the ceiling and the floor, he kind of looks between them for a moment, making sure their both where they are supposed to be.

Once he's sure their not moving and switching, he gets an idea.



Without really waiting to explain--because for some reason his fuzzy mind says it would be an awesome surprise--he tries to tug Sollux into his lap. Time for fun rides in the four-wheel device.
From: [identity profile] off-the-honk.livejournal.com
Gamzee can practically read that mind, because he honks excitedly, and grabs the back of the chair, thinking he knows where this is going.

It's time for sick fourwheel rides.
