Such an ordeal. I might have perhaps enjoyed myself if someone hadn't broken into my room, and if I did not already have so many things to organize in so little time.

Merlin, if you are paying attention, let me re-iterate that: someone broke into my room.

But enough of that unpleasantness. I've got a party to put together, and I am not a miracle worker. I'm so used to doing this with a staff that I did not even remember how daunting this could be. I am in need of a partnership or two or four, if people are willing. If there is to be a celebration, then much is needed, not to mention a date to be set!

Decorations! Music! Food! We're a ship of variety when it comes to talent. Surely there are a few brave souls willing to pitch in.

Come come, now. Don't be shy.

[Oh. Oh, is there a community wide party that needs planning?]

First, you need to decide exactly what sort of party you're planning. Is it a general harvest festival? A Halloween party? A pre-Thanksgiving? [Or was that just a Pawnee holiday?]

Hmm. I wouldn't go and mix up your holidays. But a Halloween aspect could be fun! Maybe a costume contest? A masquerade theme?

[Reaver you sure do know how to compliment a lady!]

Well, thank you for noticing! I'm only doing what I can. While being awesome and well organized.

[What? It's true! Anyway.]

The first thing that I think we need to do, if it is going to be a costume party, is give people a heads up so that they have time to plan an outfit of some sort -- some inmates may need to contact their warden to request supplies from the admiral. It's not like we can just pop over to the nearest Party City. I'm happy to request whatever we need for the party, and I'm sure that Merlin would as well.

What are you planning, a costume party? [Well, since Halloween's coming up and all, WHAT ELSE COULD IT BE?]

requiresssacrifice: Rex is partially obscured (obscured)
For Halloween, yes. It's celebrated at the end of the month, where I'm from. [And Rex won't admit it, but he secretly likes the dress-up aspect of Halloween. JUST LOOK AT HOW HE USED TO DRESS, OKAY.]

It's typically a children's holiday. They dress up in costumes and go door-to-door for candy. Trick or treating. Adults... will sometimes have their own version where they put on costumes and get really drunk. There are festivities, pranks, fake haunted houses, things like that.

You may not like it so much after experiencing it here. It's a mixed bag on the Barge-- sometimes harmless, other times, the usual traumatizing Barge experience.

requiresssacrifice: Rex is turning around or something (looking over)
Well, there's something I hadn't considered.

Of course I'm paying attention. Do you know who it was?

takeyouapart: (dubious | eh?)
[Aaaand a quick do-over since he would have noticed:]

I'll ask around.

Don't suppose he took that square ruby pin you're not wearing today?

takeyouapart: (confused | whut)
[The day Merlin thinks Reaver's trying something new he'll spend passed out from shock.]

That's completely untrue.

It was Captain Reynolds, anyway. I've got the pin back for you.

As long as that's all you have. It was the flood, he couldn't help it any more than you could help....I don't know, shedding fur.

As long as it isn't a murder party, I'm in.

You should look into installing traps. Floods come with alarming frequency here. [ he would if he could get access to more sophisticated materials. or a mana pool he can cast from. that would be nice too. ]

Isn't this holiday in a week or so? You're cutting it a little close even with all your preliminary work.

If people don't want to ask the Admiral for costumes, I could make some.

I'm guessing you'll want seasonal food - I'm not really sure how the kitchens work, maybe it's there already. You'll need to coordinate with them.

[She tilts her head thoughtfully.] You could always run it like a potluck - everyone brings something of their own. Maybe a dish from their own world or era, that they'd serve around this time.

[Barbara grins, inclining her head.]

I'm Barbara, by the way.

[Filter]

[And her smile fades, replaced with grim concern.] And I'm still working on it, but if you want, we could install some surveillance in your room, in case it happens again. Might have just been animal instinct, but it might have been someone taking advantage.

[A slight, sharp smile.] In the meantime, maybe booby traps.
