Halloween Party (open RP)

ooc: This post is open to everyone. Your character can drop by IC, metaly or via bendy time too. Whatever works. :) Feel to play and have fun!

Chuck donned his ren faire ruffled shirt and vest once again. Although he would eventually break into the Sandworm costume, he thought to have something costume-ish on in the meantime.

The courtyard outside Chuck and Ellie's apartment was decorated with Halloween lights and spooky decorations. Music played as costumed guests mingled with one another while a couple were helping themselves to the snacks and punch set up on a table at the edge of the courtyard.

Beaming she curtsied and then handed him a little bouquet of yellow and white flowers. "It should be, I stole it shamelessly from you. I hope you don't mind. I think I paid royalties coming out here."

Chuck takes the bouquet. "Thanks Salome." He then chuckles a bit and smiles sheepishly. "Well, I dunno about that. I mean, it's not like I created the creature or anything. I just told you the story."

"You are very welcome, make sure to put them in water so they stay alive longer." Grinning she gives a careless shrug. "I know, but still if you want to look at the big picture I wouldn't have known if you hadn't told me - and so on and so on."

"I will do that," Chuck replies with a grin. "And I guess that's one way of looking at it." He glances back at the flowers and excuse himself for a moment. "Be right back."

Chuck returns a couple of minutes later. "I put the flowers in a vase that's now in the living room," he explains.

"I'm into long, drawn out explanations, my new thing." Grinning she looks around and then puts her hands behind her back. "You have a very nice place, Chuck. I do like California, it's nice to be in the sun again."

"That's quite all right with me," Chuck then grins back.

"And thank you. I'm glad you like it here. And!" Chuck begins remembering the conversation about Halloween they had, "It's warm enough here that you can wear whatever costume you want."

"It would get mighty annoying if it wasn't, but I did promise to behave myself." She finally laughs and tucks a strand of hair behind her ear.

"This is true, look! Sandals!" She pulled the hem of her dress up enough to show off her toes. "Much better then the farmer outfit I wore trick or treating. Cute with the pumpkin but a little too country for my tastes."

"Well, if you start misbehaving, I'll let you know." He then chuckled.

"Pretty," Chuck comments as Salome shows off her sandals. In response to her comment about the farmer's costume, he says, "Yeah, but it matched with Jonba's costume though. By the way, how did he like trick-or-treating?"

"Thank you, generally I'm good with a time out in the corner," Salome laughs a bit before falling silent.

"Indeed it did, so everyone thought it was adorable. Well he and I walked around until he got too tired and then I pulled him around in his wagon. He got a lot of Candy that he's not allowed to eat." Reaching into her basket she took out her iphone and pulled up her photos. "Would you like to see a picture?"

"I'll keep that in mind," Chuck replied, laughing a bit.

"Hopefully he got some things he could enjoy though. And I'd definitely like to see a picture."

"It's easy getting me there, the difficult part comes trying to explain what happened," she gave him a big grin.

Turning the iphone around she showed him the picture, which was of her in pig tails and over alls, holding Jonba who was dressed in orange sweats and top with a green hat for a stem. "I think he did, he just needs to be careful how much he eats. Did you go trick or treating, or did you just bust out the sand worm costume and go nuts?"

Chuck grinned.

"Aw, he looks adorable. And your costume is very nice too." Chuck blinked a bit when asked about the Sandworm costume. "Oh...no, I mean, we're a bit old to be trick-treating. We just wear it for the Haloween party."

"He is the cuter of the two, as it should be. I can safely and objectively say that he is the cutest kid in that town, a title he holds with pride." Grinning she shrugs, "there were some older people trick or treating around the neighborhood. Plus dressed up like that, who can tell how old you are?"

"As he should," Chuck replied with a smile.

He then shakes his head. "Even so, we're too old and it's a huge costume to run around in."

"That's why I like you, Chuck you support my notions of grandeur." With a giggle she cocked her head to the side and thought about it.

"I can see it now: 'Giant sandworm terrorizes L.A. where is Paul Atreides when you need him?'. It probably wouldn't make the front page, but there's insane competition around here."

"Sure...why not?"

Chuck laughed. "No, given this is LA, we'd be probably like nearly the back page. But we're probably the only Sandworm with four legs."

"Because you don't want to encourage bad behavior?"

Salome laughed with him and grinned, "you mean there was more then one sandworm around here?"

"And supporting delusions of grandeur is...bad?" he joked.

"Since we're in LA, I wouldn't doubt there's one out there with either no legs or maybe like two legs." He was joking once again.

"Well it's all fun and games until I develop a death ray and hold the whole world hostage so I can become despotic rule of the universe." She told him in a sing song voice.

Sobering up for a moment she gave him a look, "It's like Tremors all over. Can you imagine those big old things trying to get through LA traffic?"

"So you won't give up for say," he then continued in his best Dr. Evil voice, "One hundred billion dollars?"

He then laughed. "Why go through it when you can go under it?"

Laughing, she clapped her hands. "No, wait, maybe, that's really tempting. I don't need any more responsibilities."

Giggling she nodded, "Eureka! Either go below or above, that will work."

"Running a whole universe would be a lot of responsible. Even moreso than 'Emperor of the Known Universe,' which Morgan has joked I could be someday."

"Exactly!"

"See, I figure that job might kill me, even if I do appoint like a million people do to my various jobs. Plus I really don't want to run against you, because I think you have better qualifications then me." Grinning she turned her head and coughed lightly into her hand.

"Excuse me. Is Morgan here, I always hear stories but never see him . . . Oh! What about the Major?! I need to tackle him."

Chuck laughed. "I don't even know how you can get such a job. And besides, I wouldn't wanna like terrorize anyone to get that job. Just not me."

He then shook his head. "Morgan's not here yet. But Casey should be around here somewhere..."

ooc: Maybe I can find Morgan!mun to join us but I don't see the muse around too too often.
