The House was Awake with Shadows and Monsters [Open to All]

This might not be the first time a given dreamer has found themselves at a fancy party in a large mansion, and dressed in something they wouldn't typically wear. If the architecture is more gothic than usual, well, that could just be a coincidence… but it's probably no coincidence that the dreamers are all wearing Halloween costumes that they decidedly did not pick themselves. 'Tis the season! They might look fancy, they might look slapdash; either way, it shouldn't be too difficult for the dreamers to figure out who - or what - they're supposed to be.
The evening's festivities are centered around a grand ballroom. Music is emanating from somewhere or other, and numerous chandeliers are aglow with warm candlelight. Tables line the perimeter, and they're piled with seasonal snacks and bowls of punch. If dancing isn't your thing, there's a whole mansion and extensive grounds to explore.
Those who venture forth will notice that the farther they wander from the party, the less friendly things seem. Tidy rooms with fires in the hearths will give way to dark, dusty corridors and neglected spaces. Manicured lawns grow into tangled hedges. As the music fades out of earshot, the house's settling groans and the hiss of the wind through the ivy will be impossible to ignore.
(It was just the house, wasn't it? Sure it was. It was probably your own footsteps that made that floorboard creak, too. And that rustle on the other side of the hedge was just a rabbit.)
All things considered, it might be more comfortable to just stay in the ballroom, where it's warm and cheerful and there are plenty of snacks. A note about the snacks, though: the dreamers will find that the more punch they consume, the more their own identities seem to fade away in favor of a persona more in line with their costumes. A dreamer dressed as a tiger might find themselves inclined to hide behind a curtain and pounce on passersby. A dreamer dressed as a mummy might adopt a stiff-legged gait and dole out a curse or two. A dreamer dressed as a robot might start speaking binary.
At least no one will actually turn into anything. That would just be embarrassing.
The good news is that eating any of the available food will counteract the punch's effects, so it's possible to have a fine time and still keep ahold of yourself.
[ooc: the usual dream party rules apply. All are welcome, whether they've been apped to the game or not. Characters can remember or forget the events of the dream at the players' discretion. Any punch-drinking dreamers will take on the personality characteristics - and potentially the magical/supernatural capabilities - of whatever or whoever they're dressed as, though their physical appearance will remain the same.]

This is stupid. She's too short to be a basilisk. But it seems the rift has seen fit to dress her like one, anyway. If Tkaa could see her now, he'd probably be speechless.
Daine sighs, then wanders towards the faint strains of music she can hear coming from around a corner. She'll see whatever it is the dream wants to show off so badly. Then, maybe she'll try to find a bathroom where she can scrape some of this paint off. She's certain she'll smudge it horribly even if she tries to be careful.
Bee's coming off the tail end of her thread with Tim

kate galloway. oc. open obvs.
The dress she's stuck in - silver, floaty, and completely wrong for her preferences - makes Kate wriggle and stand awkwardly to the side of everyone walking by. She doesn't even notice, until she passes a mirror, that every part of her flesh and hair has been whited out and that her dress is decidely more... ethereal than she realised. The folds of the skirt shimmer in the light until she almost looks like some form of spectral illusion.
A ghost, her brain echoes as she drags her eyes away from the mirror and towards the grand hall that sets the stage for tonight. Fancy - the kind of fancy she's only ever been exposed to when someone needs monitoring as a suspect of some kind of supernatural ability - and completely... and utterly not her.
At the very least, Kate knows this isn't something she's getting paid for, so the urge to hide in the corner and observe peters out, replaced by a notion that drink would be excellent. With an entire table there, filled with food and punch, there's no reason not to indulge.
So she has a glass. And another. And her brain fogs and suddenly the only acceptable idea is to grab a passer-by's glass and float it in mid-air, because - hey - no one can see her, right?
"Boo," she drawls, hoping to see her victim jump with surprise.
no subject
The young man whose drink has just been stolen leaps back with a great deal of wild, indignant flailing. In the process, his own costume is revealed: a small, equine backside is strapped to his waist, making him an ill-proportioned centaur. If he'd had a chance to really get into the punch, his reaction might have been a bit more graceful and calm. As it is, the boy turns bright red with adolescent fury.
"How dare you!" he bellows in a dubious accent, patting where his pockets ought to be and scowling when he finds himself lacking pockets entirely. Where is his wand? He'll have to make do with bluster. "Return my drink at once," he orders with an imperiously outstretched hand, "or my father shall hear of this!"

Still, she rationalizes to herself, it is a step up from being forced to confront a winged, fire-breathing lizard. Discerning dreams from reality has become easier, as Raleigh - as Mako thought it might.
This may be a dream, but she is intent on exploration regardless, testing the boundaries of the swooping balustrades, the well-tended lawns, the curving cobbled passageways of the mansion. She is sure, however, to stay within the light. She has not made a habit of breaking the dreams' established rules, and she would not like to start doing so now.
When she returns to the central room with its warm glow and pleasant buzz of other voices, she retrieves a glass of the pinkish punch absentmindedly - and nearly gasps when the glass slips from her hand and suspends itself in the air.
"Hello?" she says sharply, scanning her surroundings but finding no one culpable. Still, she quite clearly heard someone say 'Boo'.
She advances a step, painfully aware of how difficult it is to seem remotely intimidating while clad in a cartoonishly lumpy purple costume.
Still, she fires another inquiry into the apparent empty air. "Who's there?"

Black suit, crisp shirt, and the white mask that's just a little too eerily reminiscent of that thing of his nightmares. He swallows hard, unable to tear his eyes away. Even without the freakish height, the eyeless, smooth, skin-taut face, it's darkly obvious what he's come dressed as.
Great. That's just - that's just great.
Tim breathes out shakily and turns away. It's a dream. It's just a dream, and it's some stupid, spooky old mansion. He sniffs the punch suspiciously in case any of it's spiked - dream or not, alcohol's not a risk he's willing to take. When the scent doesn't burn his nostrils, he pours himself a hefty amount and drains it in one gulp. He's never been a party-goer, as that that would require him having a number of friends greater than two at any one time, but he imagines that if he were, he'd be the designated broody punch-drinker lingering in the back out of everyone's way. Might as well fulfill that social obligation.

"Hi," she greets him with a little smile. "I don't like parties either. Well, unless I know everyone. But even the people I know are dressed up funny here. And it's... well. There's something odd. Sorry, I babble when I'm nervous. Are you all right?"
She can see that he's not. She can sense it. But it wouldn't do to just open up with 'what's wrong'. And maybe he doesn't want to talk about it.

Wheatley blinks at the colorful red-and-gold costume he seems to have been unceremoniously forced into. What sort of bizarre human ritual is this? Why go to all the trouble of painting little robot bits on if you're not going to complete the whole picture and make it an actual robot suit?
The mask is really terribly hot, his breath bouncing back his face - what a horribly poorly-structured mechanism this human business is, honestly - and beads of sweat collecting beneath his untidy mop of dark hair. He yanks the mask off with a gasp that sounds rather like someone resurfacing from near-suffocation and promptly crashes into a nearby table of d'oeuvres. Who put that there? Was this set up specifically to unbalance him? You know, he's starting to suspect it might have been. Humans. They're loud and inconsiderate and smelly - but, he reflects without a trace of irony as he rescues one of the d'oeuvres from the floor and pops it experimentally into his mouth - eating really almost makes the whole inconvenience worth it, almost. Right fantastic cooks, humans can be.
Wheatley's so taken by the taste and texture of the dream-food that he hasn't realized he's left something of a trail of destruction in his wake, having successfully and noisily toppled one of the snack-laden tables without making any motion to clean the whole mess up.

Things actually are worse, as she realizes when she catches her reflection in one of the ballroom windows. Her face is made up with kiddie carnival finesse, her nose outlined in black, her cheeks bronzed and speckled with white, and her eyes deeply shadowed. Add the headband with two oval ears attached, and the whole 'deer' thing is pretty hard to miss.
It also feels vaguely insulting, like the Rift is prying into her personal business, but should that really surprise her?
This calls for punch. This calls for all the punch. Sunshine makes a beeline for the nearest snack table, ladles herself a glass, and knocks it back. She can't say it makes her feel better, but the night's still young (probably), so she serves herself another.
no subject
She does see exactly what Sunshine's outfit is going for, and utterly fails to stifle a snort into her own cup of punch. "Oh dear," she says out loud. Then, to make sure she got her point across and because no one but her is laughing yet, "Oh deer."
Biscuit, who seems to have been painted or dyed in a curious black pattern over his natural brown, lets out an audible sigh.

She's also smoldering, quite literally, curls of steam boiling off her as she makes her displeasure at this entire set-up extremely, extremely palpable.
Almost immediately, Ruby sets off at a sprint, darting effortlessly between legs and threading around anyone in her way, disregarding the presence of nearly everyone else as she belts a single name at the top of her lungs:
"SAPPHIIIIIIIIIIIRE!"

Now to that. He didn't even see the... small... red... smoking... devil child standing next to him.
Well, he can roll with that. He's a rolling kind of guy. He rolls. And oddities are always bursting up in dreams, after all.
Still, such a racket must be dealt with.
"Settle down," he says curtly. "What on earth is the matter?"
He has, at this time, completely failed to notice the small plastic red horns nestled in his hair, or the little dragon-like red wings attached to his tweed jacket, or, indeed, the little red tail hanging off his trousers. The pitchfork he had failed to deem worthy of explanation and had left it accordingly on the punch table. Already he's feeling an itch to retrieve it, but that can surely be ignored.

There's another unpleasant groan from the hallway behind her. Just the house settling, she thinks, but Greta hustles away from the sound, anyway, listening to the click of her heels against the wooden floor and wondering if her slippers are as pure as gold. Her skirts - the skirts, this isn't hers - are too voluminous for her to check, which is probably just as well.
Her steps slow as she nears what sounds like some sort of large gathering, her eyes drawn to the warm light spilling out into the hallway. It sounds like a party - the desperately fancy kind - and it pulls at her even as she inwardly protests the absurdity of it all. As if she has any right or reason to be here. This isn't a free-for-all in the TARDIS; there was no invitation, cryptic or otherwise. She'd be trespassing. She'd probably make a fool of herself.
Greta turns her back to the doorway, as if it won't tempt her if she just doesn't look at it. The move only serves to bring her face-to-face with her own reflection in a high, arched window, and she can't help gasping. It's not just the dress: there are strings of pearls around her neck, and her hair is done up in some kind of elegant twist with a few artfully stray curls.
She could almost be a Princess. She could almost be a Queen.
She tears her eyes away from herself - she has to, this is getting ridiculous - and instead finds a reflected slice of the ballroom's bright, bustling interior. She could just take a quick peek. Couldn't she? She might not actually have any business here, but she must blend in - at least enough to look before she makes her necessary escape.
She probably shouldn't.
Greta shifts uncertainly from one foot to the other, and lets out a sound somewhere between a considering hum and an agonized whine.
This is terrible.

Between his fervency to get as incredibly fucking smashed as immediately possible, there had been the sensation of some sort of vague struggle taking place at the epicenter of himself, a desperate, wild, frantic energy to tear loose from whatever influence has begun to take root. Far too soon, the struggling had subsided. The scrabbling, frenetic power of the man he was, is, will become - syntax has begun to grow unbearably slippery, in his mind - had been almost intolerable. Upon its decision to subside, he feels - steadier, cleaner.
Better.
"Nervous?" He steps forward so he is standing beside her, hands in pockets, pose relaxed. Something scratches at the posterior of his mind, that this woman should strike him as familiar. He smiles without a hint of irony. "I wouldn't be."
Possibly it is the fact that tonight Rush resembles who he once was that has caused his sense of self to suffer accordingly.

Probably not, but that can be forgiven, because the brilliant young wizard with the best dance moves in the room is currently dressed as a magnificent centaur. You can tell by the disproportionately tiny horse backside that he has strapped around his waist. Firenze, he thinks, would be proud.
So would Daddy.
Draco is flitting around the room's perimeter when one of his more balletic leaps sends him crashing into another partygoer. Obviously this must be all their fault, since Draco is the epitome of grace. "Clumsy oaf!" he accuses from his new position down on the floor.

And so it was that Wheatley landed in an undignified red and gold crumple, scrambling to pull himself upright with too-long limbs and not enough coordination and flopping halfway over the cause of his dire situation.
"You weren't watching where you were going," says Wheatley indignantly, puffing up in a manner somehow redolent of an overly-aggressive peacock. "Don't go blaming me for that, all willy-nilly!"

After a moment she realizes she's leaving a trail of frost in her wake. Oh, dear. She isn't doing that on purpose, is she? But the cold air is just emanating off her in waves. It's only then that she notices outfit has changed. A fur wrap over her small shoulders, a tall icy crown on her head - she doesn't think she did that.
Something very odd is going on.
She must find Ruby. She floats on doggedly, hoping she doesn't make anyone too cold as she passes.

She stands on the mezzanine level, surveying the crowd below, arms akimbo, one booted foot resting atop a conveniently placed ottoman. What this party needs is some excitement. Some adventure. A dashing rogue to come stir shit up. And look at that, a perfectly good chandelier.
It's a simple feat of muscle memory to hoist herself up on the balcony rail and throw herself into the air, one heavy gloved hand grasping onto the chandelier's edge, letting out a loud whoop as she swings over the room, sword drawn. She uses the momentum to hurl herself over it all, landing loudly on the stairs opposite. Now that's an entrance.
She strides down into the thick of things, looking for someone appropriately impressed by her daring tomfoolery.
no subject
wherever they are."Put that away," she orders, a hint of disapproval mixed in with her general bewilderment. The woman seems familiar, enough so that she isn't frightened for herself. Enough so that it seems natural to take the other woman by the arm and steer her into the crowd before someone sees her with a weapon drawn and gets the wrong idea. "This is a party."

Johnny doesn't want to be around people right now. He can't stand the mingling voices, the clink of the spoon on the punch bowl, the warmth of everyone together in a room.
Besides, it's a costume party, isn't it? He's not in costume. He doesn't fit in. Doesn't fit. Never did. Doesn't belong here. There. Anywhere.
He prowls the outskirts of the house instead. Here it's damp, dark, dusty, unfriendly. This is more like it. That's what he was looking for. What's that word again? Unheimlich.
Safest where it's unsafe. Where he blends into the background.
Nobody should be near him. No one should touch him. He's poison. Sickness. Razor's edge. He'll only hurt you.
He listens to the crisp creak of the floorboards beneath his feet, listens to the draft that has one of the doors rattling open and shut periodically. Makes him jump everytime. Good. Be afraid. He deserves to be afraid.
He's part of this place. Why didn't he see it before? The house - the house - every house. They're part of him, and he, them.
It makes so much sense.
He cuts little paths through inter-connected rooms, each darker and colder than the last. Rusted doorknobs, rotting wood, mirrors shattered and coated with black residue, so he can only see himself through the cracks and gaps. As it should be.
Johnny doesn't have a costume here.
Johnny is himself.

Cracked head, broken glass, full of that angry blaring static, dark wood twisted around a single unblinking shadow. It keeps to the corners and edges, pressed between the faded contours of this house like the wretched skittering rat-thing it is.
This body is insufficient.
But in the corners of this broken thing's eyes, it will loom, ever-present. It will follow. It will taint the fringes of its memory until there is nothing but the fear that it will swallow whole.
It has needed, for some time, to hollow itself out a new puppet.

He's wandered away from the ballroom to a decrepit library, near enough to hear the music but none of the warmth. He was never much for dancing anyway. He slowly pulls a moldy tome off the shelf, holding its neighbors in place to ward off a dusty domino collapse. He blows the dust off the cover, but the gilded letters are too worn to read. He opens the book with the corner of his cape, a cloud of black moths escape, fluttering up to the ceiling as Ianto drops the book in shock. They settle on the shelves and Ianto watches them in mild horror-slash-curiosity as they bring their wings up and crawl between the gaps between the books. When he picks up the fallen book, the pages are blank.

The ballroom into which the Doctor has dream-apparated is grandiose, but the candlelight reveals details that are more shabby than elegant. There are huge windows, but the grounds outside them are too dark to inspect carefully, except in the occasional stark flash of lightning. Something is probably going to break through these windows any second, right? Maybe a wolf. Maybe a wolf that breathes fire. The Doctor grins. It's probably the scariest thing in this mansion. "Oh, hello, is this a murder mystery?" he addresses circumstances at large, without any concern for whether or not he has an audience.
no subject
That is, until she spots the delightfully familiar tall shape of the Doctor by a snack table off to the side, barely a few paces from where she's taking cover! How perfectly fortuitous, she won't have to be alone after all! If only he would look over to her, he could surely spy her furtive waving. "Psst!" she hisses, "Doctor!", but it's more a whisper than a shout and the melodious music is rather bothersome just now. "Oh shoot!" she curses to herself, wracking her brain for a way to catch his attention without tipping off any of the other people around him. And he's infernally close to boot!
It's while she's impatiently rocking from one be-clawed foot to the other that the gilded arrow dangling against her leg finally sparks an idea. Aha! This is just the thing! She may have never actually used a bow and arrow, but thanks to an educational movie marathon about all sorts of wild human rogues and rebels, she at least has a theoretical notion of it, and she's no stranger to long range weapons. So she awkwardly cocks the bow (or whatever verb goes with this) and tries to take aim. Blimey, that Robin Hood chap had made it look really rather easier than this! And she only has one shot at it, quite literally. Forked tongue sticking out in concentration, she lets go of the arrow at last and hopes for the best.

Peter had caught sight of Gabriel as he slipped off down the hall and followed, and the tone of his voice is a little mocking and a little miffed as he calls after the other man. He's also waiting for the moment when Gabe's going to turn around and laugh at him -- but if Peter thinks it's a bit funny as well, isn't it laughing with him? He looks a bit, well...biblical with the robe and the strappy sandals and all, but it's the fold-out wings with soft white feathers that make the look.
At least there isn't a halo. At least, there isn't a halo now that he took it off and ditched it on one of the snack tables.

At least this sort of accounts for the queer devices she is holding; a golden arrow with a wee heart at the tip, and a corresponding bow. Looking down at her admittedly quite pretty white and golden gown, she's surprised again to have yellow curly hair dangling in front of her eyes, a wig if there ever was one but better than a bald skull any day. The shiny halo attached to her wig by a thin thread of wire is too light for her to notice, but there appears to be something rather heavy on her back. Craning her neck, she discovers two elaborate white fluffy wings. Now that is... inappropriate, almost; she never did earn her wings, lost any rights to them along with her life. It brings about a familiar twisting feeling in her stomach, the one she gets when she's reminded of her old home and her vile brother and the responsibility she's been dodging. This fanciful getup is not as splendid as it might seem.
But before she has time to consider ripping off the wings, she's distracted by the cheerful sounds of music and laughter drifting over, and large doors opening and closing. Oh shoot, she's terribly exposed up here, why didn't she think of this sooner? Anyone might come in and be horrified at the sight of her! She quickly tosses the bow and arrow to the ground and clambers after them. Not wanting to leave a trace, she picks them up before heading off to find a place to hide and regroup. Though her sneaking about is rather hampered by the fact that her bare claws keep getting caught in the bloody carpet.

He's been nursing the same cup of punch for some time - hard to tell for how long, with everything inside - but nothing strikes him as strange until a be-winged little green thing scuttles by on all fours - and passes right through him.

He hasn't made a drunken nuisance of himself yet, too busy checking out the decor -- though he does, of course, possess a glass of punch liberally spiked from a convenient hip flask that does not at all align with the general spirit of his costume. He's not particularly impressed with the Rift for dressing him as an angel, but at least he's a sexy angel. He'd be a sexy anything, but he'll sure as hell take angel over that time it turned him into a dream vampire. He turns to glance at something across the room, not noticing that he's about to hit someone with one of his wings.

"Watch where you're going, Gabriel," the doctor snaps. He has no idea where he is, but it's significantly warmer than the hellish world of snow he's just been in. This, at least, looks like a relatively normal Halloween party. House has found himself with a glass of punch, as well, as he tsks, baring fake fangs at the other man.

What she can't figure out is why there should be bolts attached to her neck, or why her armor has been changed out for a black suit with impractically heavy boots. The bolts serve no purpose that she can observe, and they do not seem to be attached any deeper than at skin level.
"I don't get it," she finally admits out loud to no one in particular. Then, looking down, she adds somewhat resentfully, "And I don't like these boots."

NhoddRashad is an angel of Heaven, an ancient andpowerfulformerly powerful being of righteous Order and now one of the few beings in this mortal city working to bring peace and organization to its microcosm. He is above such petty human things as vain concern for dignity, as he is inherently dignified at all times, but he is still fairly certain that the pink jacket and matching sweatpants in which he finds himself are an affront unto him and unto Heaven. He can currently be found skulking at the edge of the party, hood down and shoulders hunched as he scowls at passersby.no subject
Definitely not this skull king. This costume's about as low-effort as a costume can get, but the little crown cut out of yellow construction paper is still set at a jaunty angle at the crown of his skull. Sans hasn't been drinking much at all - with a digestive tract like his, why bother? - but that doesn't mean he doesn't know how to have a good time.
He doesn't recognize the monster in front of him. All he can tell is that it's really not that human, though it sure knows how to pretend to be one. Sans ambles over, never losing his trademark grin.
"hey." In a display that doesn't seem quite right given his literally skeletal appearance, Sans winks an eyesocket. "what're you pinking about?"

It is a bit ironically fitting; he tugs away the black hood obscuring his face and studies the scythe in his hands with an incredulous snort. "Funny. Veeeery funny." It feels too heavy to be plastic, and suddenly he's not quite willing to test the blade. Maybe he should just keep this with him. He doesn't want just anyone running around with it.
Anyway, it'd be rude to clutter up the party! He's never been to a costume party before! The costume choice isn't enough to put him off, and he merrily wades into the ballroom, careful to avoid smacking anybody with the scythe tucked under his arm. There's dancing! And punch! This should be a fun dream!
i was very hesitant about tagging bc i know i am the worst at it
No worries I'm terrible
i think objectively i am worse but i appreciate you joining me under the bus

Not where he meant to go. Not what he meant to look like when he go there. "Weird," he concludes, then shrugs. He'll get there when he gets there, but now he has a party to check out. He'll just be trotting among the people, craning his necks to check out their costumes. "Nice -- not sure what that is -- ooh, that's a good one...."
