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.

"It's like this place erodes a little at a time. Words sometimes, a sentence maybe. You're telling the story and then suddenly can't remember the middle, but you know the end."

It's actually even less drastic than that, but she thinks it paints a bigger picture. "If you're here long enough, eventually you'll forget anything but this place."

This is very alarming, Michonne.

Iris appreciates frankness, all the same. She'd rather hear a brutal truth over a pretty lie. She's been lied enough.

"How long is long enough?" she asks quietly. People keep telling her there's no way to leave, and while she'd like to believe otherwise, if Barry and the team haven't found a way out yet ...

"Well. Boyfriend's been here five years and he still remembers home, there's just a few bits and pieces missing. So I don't think it goes all that fast. I'd be more concerned about what you have in your home world that you wouldn't want to inflict on everyone else here. Because that's exactly what it'll do."

Michonne doesn't know how to sugar coat shit. She can't stand people doing it to her, and she won't do it to others.

Iris grows quiet at the answer. There are so many metahumans in her world, some with powers that are truly dangerous. She thinks of Thawne, thinks of Zoom, and she knows that Michonne is right. This is what she should concern herself with.

Well, this and trick-or-treating, which Iris and Michonne end up doing together fabulously for the remainder of the evening.

Is it any surprise? They're Catwomen.
