Summary: The Summerween Trickster has made his decree - Trick or treat...or die! This is a mingle log for Trick-or-Treating!
The Story:



On the morning of the 24th, everyone will find that the mansion was inexplicably decorated for Halloween...sort of. The idea behind the decorations is mostly the same, except that every jack-o-lantern is made out of a watermelon instead of a pumpkin. No, this is SUMMERWEEN.

For the first day it will be harmless enough, just a change in décor and a little spooky summer fun. However, by the second day there will be sightings of the Summerween Trickster, a creepy fellow made entirely out of unpopular loser candy, and he is not happy. In the entrance hall, there will be a giant jack-o-melon container with a counter and a count-down clock ticking away to the end of the event.

Your job, Wonderland, is to trick-or-treat for your lives. You have until the end of the event to deliver one million pieces of candy to the jack-o-melon before the end of the event, to appease the Summerween Trickster.

What was that? You'll just sit this out and wait for the event to end? I wouldn't do that if I were you. You see, the Summerween Trickster could be lurking around any corner. If he catches someone not fully embracing the spirit of Summerween (refusing to trick or treat, not wearing a costume, etc), they will not survive the experience. The Trickster will kill them and swallow them whole, making them part of his horrible loser candy body.

More details about trick or treating can be found here. This is a mingle post for trick-or-treating, if you'd rather use this than make a post! [Brackets] or prose are both welcome.

[Alphys has never seen whatever Amethyst is dressed as, but she's pretty in pink, so they're sort of color matching. But she's pretty wowed by people who do, what she assumes, is a pretty faithful outfit.]

Y-You look awesome! What're you, uhm, c-cosplaying from?

[brainmeme]

Heh, thanks! [Cookie Cat does an adorable little bow.] I'm an ice cream! His name's Cookie Cat and he's delicious.

[Amethyst only knows because she's totally eaten some of Steven's Cookie Cats before. Shhh, don't tell him. It wasn't after the product got discontinued, at least. She's not that cruel.]

[sciencelizard]

Oh! So l-like a mascot? That's so cute!

[Maybe next time, she thinks, she'll pick a food mascot. Does Miku Hatsune count as a food mascot? I mean, probably.]

Your costume, uh, is r-really good! I haven't e-ever seen, uhm, a Cookie Cat, but it's really well d-done.

Well, I mean, I just shapeshifted it. I didn't make anything. Gems don't really... "wear" clothes? We just kind of have them.

[Essentially, they're an entire race of never nudes.]

[sciencelizard]

Well, then, uh, r-really well shapeshifted! It still must, uhm, t-take talent and work to, uh, move magic around like that.

[She has... no real idea of what shapeshifting entails, but it probably requires practice, and Amethyst probably worked hard on it! So that counts, sort of.]

[brainmeme]

Shapeshifting comes natural to Gems, but I do happen to be particularly good at it, so... thanks!

[Alphys is just trying to compliment her. Amethyst shouldn't protest too much, even though she feels like she didn't really do anything.]

What's your costume? I don't recognize it.
