Costume Image 1 (click)
Costume Image 2 (click)[ This. Was. AWESOME! No, beyond awesome! There were no words for how sock-rocking AWESOME this was! And, he couldn't even get lost! By courtesy of Bill, every door he opened led to the party, where he was fully ready to let loose for one night, and do his best to throw his cares to the wind! Starting with this form! Not.. that he had anything wrong with still looking like his human self of course. It was just fun to have a night to break out in the full form, to float around and not give a shit! Even.. if he was a good foot or two shorter like this. Who cares??! FLOATING! Clawed feet hidden under the long robe, clawed hands doing the same under long sleeves. The black and white cracked mask was like his true skin, his true self. He felt.. so exposed! But in a good way? Like an adrenaline rush or something. The end of his hood was twitching like an anticipated cats tail, something he had to be mindful of after the first person stepped on it. Owch. Ooh! He even had a chance to choose music! What to choose? What to choooose?! He was wracking his brain, trying to avoid those old highschool dance stereotypes he'd grown up with, like that michael jackson dance with the zombies and stuff. There was always classic video game music. What was good for horror and dance? What about that one that had been stuck in his head for like.. a month now? Perfect! With that in place, Damian loitered around. He was kind of snackish, but he was more interested in floating around aimlessly for now, trying to find someone he either knew, or recognized from the site. Every few steps he to- er floated, his head bobbed, awkwardly dancing just a small bit. Halloween, partying, costumes... and he was spending it in Gravity Falls. He didn't care what the others thought. This was AWESOME!

Lyra:Alaina:She opened the door to step in to the home that she and Alaina shared and...Appeared on the edge of an impressively monumental dance hall. Her eyes widened as she kept her hand held outwards, as though she was considering the option of just... Taking a step back out through the thing and going to do something else for the day. But as she scanned around the area, she soon began to realize that this was most certainly 'not' an isolated incident. She saw people that she had seen in every other part of town... Some that would certainly never be seen in a place like this around so many people. One such person was a certain cosplayer... Black and white hair with equally colored ears and tail, she stood rather awkwardly on the opposite edge of the dance floor.Was that the sound of a stiletto step?Lyra looked down at her feet... Seeing that they were indeed clad in stiletto heels, with a pair of stockings artfully ripped in places that revealed a rather gratuitous amount of skin... These trailed upwards, until they met with a two-piece which covered about an equal amount of her upper body.She was a damn Nier character. And it couldn't possibly have been more embarrassing.However, she was relatively decent when it came to swallowing her nerves. Besides, she probably looked okay?! She closed her eyes and drew in a deep breath... And steadily, the rhythm of those damned stiletto heels began to tap their way across the dance floor and towards the woman on the opposite end, until..."Oh! Uh... Damian?" Her eyes flitted towards the practical specter floating about the grand room, her head tilting to the right.
"You look... Great! That 'is' a costume right?" There were reasons to be unsure, but she was gracious enough to give him the option to ignore it if he liked.
"So I take it this forced invitation is a Cipher thing. I also take it that since i'm here, there's no way to get out til we're let out soooo..." And back to Alaina did those eyes flicker...
"Mind floating me over there than floating us towards the refreshments? I feel pretty uh..." She looked down, gesturing to herself.
"I feel like I need a pack right now ya feel me?" |

Seemed like this night could only get better, as Damian bumped into a familiar and welcome face in the crowd. The cracked smile on his mask widened in joy as they crossed paths, and he was quick to change direction so they were within talking distance. "Hey Lyra!" he greeted, waving a three clawed hand.
The wave and grin faded into a more awkward expression, hand dropping to rub at his awkward arm. "Um.. kinda.. kinda not? It's more um... true form than.. I mean.. yeah... This is uh... I mean like.. you know how Bills a triangle and all? Well um... I'm not exactly a piece of geometry but uh..." God this was a bit awkward to explain. Suddenly he was a bit regretful of his costume choices, and was quick to change the subject. "But hey, you look pretty awesome though! Finally got the curves to show off, am I right?"
Of course, this was a forced thing for her, and Damian couldn't help a sheepish look. "Seems so, but uh.. We can make the best of it right? Have some fun...with...?" He trailed off, noting her distraction. Who was that? Then again, there was probably one person he could guess it being... A smile jumped back on the masked features, a little more cracked as it betrayed some nerves. He wasn't really.. practiced when it came to floating people. But hey, he could try, right?
"Uh, sure, I mean.. I'll give it my best shot."
It was a little harder than floating smaller objects, but after a moment of physics law breaking, he managed to get them a few feet off the ground. He wasn't very comfortable with anything more than necessary, and floating just high enough to get Lyra over peoples heads was a challenge in itself. Still, they made it to the table with little trouble, allowing Lyra to grab what she wanted while Damian nibbled on a weird disk of something colorful that tasted painfully sweet. Most people would probably gag at how much sugar was packed in that one treat, but not him.
Once refreshments were gained, he doubled back, bringing Lyra over to the object of her eye and setting her down as carefully as he could, his hands a little shaky as they offered Alaina an awkward wave.

She looked grateful as she was floated about like a balloon on a string. But... As they settled down near the refreshments, she gave him a soft You know I meant... You float, me walk. Right? Got these curves and all..." The woman squirmed slightly... Forced though it was, she couldn't help but be at least a 'little' bit excited. Though it 'was' something of Bill's making in here, she was always a sucker for celebrating Samhain... In fact, that was what she had been meaning to go and find Alaina for! Thankfully- albeit a bit concern inducing- in that she had also shown up here. As she was again floated in the direction of the infamous cosplayer, she cast her eyes about to take in the surroundings... People dancing. People having a great time... Others, like her, who had no idea how or why they were here. Hell, some of these people weren't even from Gravity Falls as far as she could tell. But the time for thinking over that was limited... For just as soon as she was about to mention it, her heels touched ground and she found herself springing towards Alaina with open arms.
"L-lyra?! Ohgodwhatareyoudoinginthatyou'reso-" She cut herself off, clasping her hands over her face to hide her embarassment until her fingers spread, allowing her deep blue eyes to gaze towards Damian. "Oh, is this a friend of yours? I didn't mean to be rude!"
"Mhm! This is my friend, Damian. We've known eachother since... Highschoolish? He's the one that gets the brunt of my gushing about you, you know."
"It's so glad to meet one of her old fr-" The woman paused, her ears... Twitching slightly as she whipped her attention towards Lyra. "...You gush about me?"
"Well yeah. Why wouldn't I? I mean, 'look' at you." Lyra paused, blinking to herself as she sloooowly swiveled her head back towards Damian. "U-uhm... Sorry about that. Yeah. This is Alaina, my boss." Nudge. "G-girlfriend."
"Also confused as to why I opened the door to the shop and ended up at a party in a cosplay I didn't make."
"...Long story. But let's just enjoy it, okay? It's not that bad. Hey, Damian, know anything we could do? Anyone we should look for?"

Damian wanted to facepalm at the mention of his mistake. Oh well, too late now right? He told himself he was going to cut back and not worry so much tonight, and he did his best to laugh it off. "Whoops. Well, what's wrong with taking the easy way, right?" Besides, it was a quicker way to get around, even if his stomach lurched from being high up with such a.. high.. open ceiling. He tried not to think about that too much, lest it throw off his concentration.
While Lyra and Alaina gushed over eachother, Damian hung back with a small, warm smile on his face. A tiny part of him was a little envious, mind drifting as it did way too often lately to someone else. But really, he was mostly happy for his friend. She had so many good things thanks to being dragged into this place. If she was happy, then so was he.
He waved a little again when he was noticed. "No worries. Nice to finally meet you." He hung back mostly, hovering just a foot off the ground as if he was standing on an invisible box. He remembered doing this in dreams back when he was human.. it felt so cool to do it now in reality. He didn't miss the small ear twitch from Alaina, something that made his smile widen just a little more. So cool. He had some furry ears of his own of course, but they remained under the hood, where they were safe.
Bobbing his head, he enjoyed the shift in music to something a little harder and with more sick riffs and sweet harmonies. When addressed as to what they should do, he shrugged and looked around. "Not really recognizing anyone.. and I haven't been to a party or anything like this since prom.. that was like.. what... seven, eight years ago or something?" Okay he was probably off a bit on that estimate, but whatever. "This is a Bill party though. Bound to be something entertaining around." He cracked a grin at that, wondering what the demonic overlord might have snuck into the scene to keep things 'interesting'.
"Just uh, maybe give me a heads up so I can wander off if you two are gonna start macking on eachother, eh?"

"Same to you too, hon! But I like to think I'm a polite woman... She's the one who can't control herself in public."
The woman bumped her hip against Lyra at that, causing the pair to each let out a soft laugh.
"Anyway... If it's a Bill party, then that means there's a couple more reasons why it's not a good thing that I got dragged into it. But hey, I guess I can make the best of it... At least the music's good! I didn't realize Birthday Massacre was a thing way down here in Gravity Falls!" Of course she knew the explanation. At least- thought she did. Bill probably wasn't limited in what he could access as far as playlists went... At least this once, she couldn't find it in herself to complain about it.
"Hey, Damian. How do you dance in a 'costume' like that anyway? Spooky ghost wiggles or something?" Lyra turned her violet gaze up towards her friend, quirking a brow in genuine curiosity. It was better to talk about things like this than to put on a tinfoil hat at a time like this... After all, she was living the dream right?
"...You should demonstrate for the class. You can dance, right?"
"Oooo! We can dance together! I 'love' dancing, you know."
"That sounds like a 'great' idea actually. How about dancing a bit with Alaina? Maybe you suck alittle less than me." |
