Vanthyne.png
LOCATION: Dining Room | INTERACTING: Mama Rose and others | MENTIONED: No one​

Curled into a ball beneath a heavy blanket. A peaceful sleeping expression. Soft breaths--one of which suddenly hitches in his throat--bringing him to smack his lips as he shifts around in the bed.

One quick sniff of something familiar, something in the air that's nostalgic.

Vanthyne's eyes peek open, peering around his dark, cluttered bedroom. It's been a month since he fell asleep, a normal enough characteristic of his species, but a taxing one nonetheless in that he's starving and stiff.

Sitting up and rubbing at his eyes, hanging his feet over the edge of the bed, he yawns wide before standing slowly and scuffling across the room with great directional prowess considering the mess of knick-knacks and trash scattered about the floor. The light flicks on, blinding him a moment at which he squints.

That smell... He knows it. It's one that comes every year, sending an involuntary wave of excitement throughout his tired bones without even realizing what it is yet.

He exits the room, makes through the house, and finds his way to the dining room to see everyone sitting around the table. He's just in time to catch Mama Rose standing for attention, clapping her hands at the others while wearing her signature gown.

Vanthyne chuckles beneath his breath and leans against the door-jamb. He listens to the woman speak, saying something about trick or treating and the townsfolk. At first he doesn't quite get it. However, when he does, his eyes light up like fire and he jumps into the room with a wide stance, toes pointing outward with his arms stretched open, "Uwoooooooooah! It's Halloween?! We can go to town!?"

Jason wasn't hungry, as he had been eating the scraps of pumpkin from everyone's earlier pumpkin carving. And he was also sitting directly across from Akrita witch made him even more nervous than usual. He tried making a few jokes to calm himself down but it didn't work and he ended up being more nervous because he didn't know if Akrita thought they were funny or not. He wished he was in his cave working on one of his many woodworking projects instead of silently worrying to himself about a girl that was probably unattainable to him. He cut himself a slice of pie, despite not being hungry, to try and pretend he was fine. Just then Rose began to speak, stating the rules for tonight. He started to remember his first Halloween. He had gone out as a half-vampire half-werewolf combo because of his ears. As he reminisced about that day he gingerly reached for the raven pendant around his neck and gently rubbed the back of it with his thumb. It was a habit of his that he barely even knew he did. It had just always felt comforting to feel the grooves and lines that etched the black stone. As he thought, he noticed Pluto wheel Nyx out of the room. Glad I'm not the one wheeling Nyx everywhere. He thought to himself. In Jay's opinion, the Dhampir boy deserved what had happened to him. Not only had he cut off Aznethon's arm, but he had also apparently hurt Akrita. He wished he could have been the one to break his femur, but he also didn't want to get into trouble with Rose. He clutched the pendant a little bit tighter as he thought about the altercation more. Mostly about Akrita and what had happened to her. He wished he could have been there to try and stop the situation before anything had happened to her. Although he also didn't know exactly what to do, as dealing with others was not a strong suit of his. He then realized someone had entered the room. He angled his head slightly towards the newcomer and shifted his gaze to them in a way that hopefully wouldn't too obviously show that he was looking at them. He realized it was the red boy whose name he could never remember. Satisfied that it was someone he at least somewhat recognized he shifted his gaze back to Akrita. Forgetting to make it seem like he wasn't looking. His appetite had perked up a little, so he began to eat his pie.

Kythios day at the table munching contentedly on the crust of his pie. The crust was by far his favorite part of any pie. The light crunch wasthe best feeling on his teeth and the sweet taste of graham really got him in a good mood. At this point, all of the others already know about his appreciation of pie crust as he often talked about it whenever it was available. Even those who haven’t been told could see by the way the edges of Ky’s mouth curled upwards into a light smile. He finished off what was left on his plate the best he could, savoring even the slightest taste as he thought about tonight’s events.

Tonight was going to be the first night Ky was going out for Halloween with the others in the house. In his previous years leaving here, he was just never pull himself to get out there. Ever since the incident regarding his lack of sight, Ky just didn’t take much of a liking towards humans. He just will himself to trust any of them enough to not hurt him. Anatole of course was an exception, but Ky still felt uneasy around him at times. This year however, he wanted to be able to trust them more easily. Going out on Halloween was a good start because he could be treated the same way any human kid would on that night. From there, Ky would only be able to further build up.

He became aware of someone who he hadn’t been aware of, someone who hadn’t moved much at all for a month. Vanthyne was, like Ky, a demon, but their highly contesting appearances suggest they are in no way related. While Ky’s skin was grey, Vanthyne’s was a lot more red, which made sense since they matched with their respective elements. Besides that, Vanythyne towered over Kythios, not that that’s hard, and sported larger horns. Of course, this is what the others described to him. Kythios looked towards Vanthyne’s direction, curious. He waved as he swallowed down the last of his pie crust.

He laughed as he heard Vanthyne’s reaction. It was expected though, and he was lucky enough to wake up now rather than later. Otherwise, he would have missed the holiday. Ky then spoke to Vanthyne in a more playful tone, teasing him for his month long sleep. “So you’re finally awake? How was the nap?” He grinned. Vanthyne was someone he felt he could mess around with freely. Ky, fork still in hand, waved it slightly. “I’m even going out this year, too. How weird is that?” He turned the joke towards himself, not bothered at all. He only a bit nervous to go out though, but as he just someone to guide him, for more than one reason, and he would be fine. Maybe Vanthyne could just walk him around. “Are you going out as well?”

"Uwoooooooooah! It's Halloween?! We can go to town!?"

Standing in only his black hoodie and matching sweatpants--no socks or shoes--Vanthyne is impervious to the many eyes directed toward him for his loud behavior, eyes glowing widely with excitement as he adds, "Fucking bet, broooo," while exhaling a puff of smoke through his nostrils.

“So you’re finally awake? How was the nap?” someone asks, proven to be Kythios--or Ky--with a quick glance in the direction of the voice. He's a similar character to Vanthyne, but only in the sense that they're both demons. Other than that, they're totally different in that Vanthyne is obnoxious, loud, greedy, and dare I say unbearable at times.

Kythios, on the other hand, is more capable of sympathy and empathy whereas Vanthyne is not. He's a caring type.

Grinning, Vanthyne nods his head, listening to the guy, then he tells him in response, "Hell's yeah, I'm goin' out. Tell ya what, too, though: I'll show you 'round, man, because I know all kinds o' interesting spots. They've got this military tank- It's some sorta memorabilia or whatever- but it's sittin' in front o' the courthouse and the top hatch ain't ever locked! It's hella fuckin' cool!"

Standing beside Kythios now, Vanthyne leans on the dining table with an elbow. "We'll take firecrackers, too, 'n' blow up. The thing's got great acoustics. That and I can teach ya how t' wrangle lots o' candy. Humans are suuuuper easily manipulated, my dude, that it's just depressing. I love it, though. Really makes me wanna mess with'em--the little bastards."

Leshi sat, back straight, in her seat at the dining table. Her wound was stitched, having the bone removed from her under rather excruciating means. She twitched slightly now, uncomfortably shifting in her chair. Her eyes would pulsate from time to time, still feeling the effects of the powerful magic in her system. The plate in front of her looked tempting, eyes landing on a piece of meat with an equally delicious bone at the center. She leaned her head down to it, giving it a small sniff before her ravenous hunger overtook her. How long had it been since she had last eaten? Days? Weeks? It didn't matter now, her senses filled with a primal sort of hunger as her sharp teeth bit into the meat. She shivered slightly, eyes pulsating a deep red. It would have tasted better had it been raw and bloody, but this would do as well. Soon enough, the meat had been completely stripped from the bone. Finding Sea'an in the room, her eyes locked on to his. She grinned, waiting for him to notice her while the meat between her teeth made for a, quite literally, unholy sight. And as she stared at the man, she bit directly into the bone with a satisfying 'Snap!'. She chewed the pointed shards, hoping for some sort of reaction to amuse her as she devoured her meal.
 
Sophia Mermaidington
The Leg Shifting Mermaid

The past couple of days had been mildly eventful for the friendly neighbourhood mermaid, she continued nurturing the vegetable patch and greenhouse located on the premises. Along with this development, she also managed to have some more small talk with the other residents in this house, plus she might have become Thony's favourite person even more now! This was accomplished by making what she likes to call 'medium rare brownies with a hint of tomato' because everyone likes tomatoes! There may have also been pasta added, because pasta makes everything fancy. Now she didn't see him actually eat the brownies, but he didn't speak to her for an entire day! you couldn't get more speechless if you tried!

Each day Sophia stressfully slaved away at perfecting her brownie recipe, but she could always relax with her compadres while eating dinner each day, and today was a special day for all the little boys and girls in Lady Rose's Estate as the aforementioned Lady Rose allowed them to trick or treat in the nearby town! And they got to dress up as anything they wanted, it just had to be spooky and Sophia knew exactly what she wanted to go as. Without tooting her own horn, Sophia knew she had the best costume out of all the other monsters and sniggered away at the thought of her dressed in her arm costume. Arms, the polar opposite of legs and possibly the creepiest thing. Plus, it was a freshly waxed arm, even creepier.

Sophia was so proud of her costume she changed into it before dinner and sat through all of the feast dressed as an arm, which Sophia was sure would send shivers down the spines of those who sat directly around her. After Lady Rose finished her announcement Sophia jumped out of her chair and let out a cheer as she clapped her somewhat restricted hands together. "This is gonna be the bee's knee’s! " She exclaimed in her bright cheery tone.​

The days leading up to Halloween were extremely underwhelming for the quiet giant, spending most of his time learning how to do things with one hand while waiting for his left to regrow. Aznethon found living with only one arm very clunky and awkward, even debilitating as occasionally he attempts to grab items with the missing limb. He couldn't even sculpt properly as the pale colossus relied heavily upon the left hand for the more delicate maneuvers, that actually managed to dent his usual stoic nature. Unfortunate situation aside, Aznethon couldn't really complain because there was an positive side effect to having a severed forearm that is people left him alone for the most part; that isn't entirely true as some people shared small talk with him. Sophia had made brownies recently, smelling them revealed they had a tomato undertone which piqued Aznethon's interest so he took a bite, gave it a 4/10 'it was okay' then threw it in the bin.

By the time Halloween arrived, Aznethon's left forearm had regrown except for the fingers which remained stumps but they should also grow back in a day or two.

During the feast, Aznethon ate a lot when Rose made her announcement, there were at least 3-6 plates empty on Aznethon's side. He stopped eating in order to carefully listen, this isn't the first time he heard the announcement but it is Rose and he should respect her wishes. Halloween isn't particularly interesting to the behemoth but carving pumpkins is always fun... Except for this year's because of the aforementioned limb. Before he could return to munching, Sophia's costume made him slowly facepalm with the fingerless hand. At least Nyx being rolled around by Pluto is still a fun sight to see, it downright cheered Aznethon up.​

Nyx wasn't exactly exuding the halloween spirit. Mostly on account of him still being an invalid. Pluto wasn't helping his sour mood much either, constantly wheeling him about; He was tempted to break Pluto's leg once he was able to stand, just to give him a taste of how it feels. It didn't help that Rose had only told him that his leg would be better soon. So without a specific timeframe, for all Nyx knew he could be stuck with Pluto looking after him. Which Nyx was already starting to get fed up with, after only a week. As if to add to his frustration, Pluto started wheeling him away as Rose finished saying that they could go trick or treating, and to not cause any trouble. 'as if I fucking could like this' Luckily Nyx had already finished his dinner.. or well enough of it. As a Dhampire, Nyx doesn't need to eat any food, so his meals were normally over quite quickly as blood doesn't take too long to drink. Although Nyx did enjoy to sit down and have a meal when he had time. Which he thought he'd have a lot of given that his list of activities has been drastically shortened since his leg had been broken. Unfortunately, Pluto had other ideas.

"If you think I'm decorating this fucking prison, You're stupider than I thought Ploots. Did The Snakes start thinking for you?" He didn't really see the point in the whole trick or treating thing. Sure they all got to go into town, which was a rare, but nice occurrence. But the whole thing just seemed stupid to him. Even more so now he was unable to walk. Nyx watched as Pluto decorated his chair himself. He didn't try to stop the Gorgon, feeling it would be a wasted effort. "Oh I'd just love to look as big an idiot as you do. What are we waiting for, lets get me into a fucking retarded costume as well. For fucks sake. You do know I'm only going because I don't have a choice right?"

The days leading up to Hallow's Eve were about as remarkable as any other to Sea'an, besides monitoring those with lasting injuries that Mother could not tend to at the time. From casting and setting the brace for Nyx's leg to preparing and assisting Rose with the extraction of whatever foreign object had made its way into Leshi's innards, he had been quite busy indeed. The feast itself was simple enough, he had prepared it every year for Rose, now there simply were more mouths to feed.

Sea'an stood behind Rose during her announcement, looming behind her covered in robes that lent his appearance to look even more like death itself, with a totally not actually real scythe on his back. He wasn't planning on travelling into town tonight, but if Mother required him to he would. They had their own plans for the night of Samhain, and he would make sure to look the part. His attention fell from one child to the next, making sure that they were somewhat listening in some capacity. He stopped when his eyes landed on Leshi, the still-recovering deamon staring at him as she snapped the bone she had been stripping of its flesh.

He stared back with his blank face, not being a stranger to other children threatening him, and he simply nodded before shifting his gaze past her. Some were eager to head out, with others lagging behind, but soon most everyone would be out of the house or hidden away. Then, just maybe then, Sea'an could find a moment to stand still. He knew that for a moment Rose had other things to take care of, and so he silently left to stand and stare at the raging bonfire he and Rose had stoked earlier.​

———————————————

Ky’s question seemed to only further excite his fellow demon. He was very energetic from his short coma like state, to the point where Ky expected him to soon drop as the realization of hunger fell on him. Ky himself could probably go at most a week straight sleeping, and he would always wake up completely starved. He learned rather quickly that Rose didn’t appreciate him gnawing on the bed frame when he first woke up, so he quickly grew out of that habit. Ky was curious of just exactly how hungry Vanthyne was if he himself was eating furniture after just a week. He should really eat, and soon, too.

He drew away from his thoughts on Vanthyne’s lack out eating, instead focusing on Vanthyne himself. So he was going out... and he was ready to look out for Ky, too? Kythios grinned stupidly. Finding someone to help him out that night was a lot easier than expected. A bunch of scenes flashed through his mind in an instant, detailing to him an idea of how the night would go with Vanthyne there. Together they would explore the town, go door to door asking for candies, see a horror movie, and so much more. His mind swarmed with ideas, making him all the more eager to listen to Vanthyne’s description of events for the night.

Vanthyne’s plans were very similar to how Ky imagined Halloween would go. The idea of just exploring the town was dead on, and though it wasn’t exactly how Ky has worded it in his own head, Vanthyne had the same idea for getting candy as well. The tank sounded interesting, too, but Ky would need to pick up something to block the noise of the firecrackers if they were to use those. He wouldn’t want to repeat the same hearing issues from a couple weeks ago. Just thinking about it made his head throb.

Tossing that thought from his mind, Ky smiled and nodded towards Vanthyne. “Sounds like an interesting night, but if we’re doing firecrackers, I’ll probably need something like earplugs to lessen the impact on my ears. They still haven’t recovered from a couple weeks ago.” Ky then realized that Vanthyne wasn’t awake neither that day nor the days following it. He was probably going to recount the events that transpired for Vanthyne’s sake. Afterall, there needed to be an explanation for Nyx being in a wheelchair, as well as Aznethon’s currently missing fingers.

Ky took a moment to look at the two of them. Nyx was being wheeled around by Pluto, and was just as he always was. The only difference was that he just couldn’t walk. When Ky first learned of that, he didn’t know what to think. Aznethon on the other hand seemed almost perfectly fine as from what Ky had heard, he had almost all of his arm grown back, with only a few fingers yet to sprout. He would probably be fully normal within a few days. Not only them, but Leshi was a new character around the house which he didn’t know about. To be honest, neither did Ky.

Ky hesitated for a moment, but continued talking. “I’ll... I’ll tell you all about that later on tonight.”

To Leshi, still unversed in the realm of social interaction, Sea'an's reaction was rather lack-luster. The simple nod hinted to the fact that he had, of course, dealt with this situation before. Her sly smile fell at an instantaneous rate, and she stared blankly at the man. She would let him go for now, but a further investigation would be required in the future. She calmly took two more pieces of bone-in meat and headed out of the dining room, deciding to wander the halls whilst hungrily and messily wolfing down her dinner.

"Okay.. Okay.. Uh, um, yeah..... That works. Sure. Aaaaaand... Done!" Mika's face shone a bright grin as he slammed his pen down beside his notebook. He had promised himself that if he had stayed on schedule that week, worked hard, and finished all that he had to do he would be able to go out on Halloween! He, personally, never understood the holiday, but the young witch knew that he had to be respectful of other cultures. The boy was a tad afraid of angering and rousing spirits, as he wasn't trained by his family in the ways of fending off demons. But, in this house, not wanting to kill demons may have been seen as rather friendly! Nonetheless, he was excited to be able to go out rather than focus on his studies for the first time in the last seven days. He burst out of his room, hair still a mess and in pajamas from being in his room for practically the last few days. Mikaela summoned his ever-trusty broom, Broom-chan, to his hand as he proceeded to speed off down the halls. Twisting through the house, he wondered where his good pal Jon would be at this hour!

———————————————

This had to be one of the best days of the year, Trouble decided to himself as the unfortunate slice of venison meat before him was viciously mauled by the wolf's pearly whites- a horrifically gruesome sight for any poor soul that was numb to gore or wasn't exposed to such caveman-esque eating mannerisms. Halloween, one of the few days ever that anyone from this house would be able to casually stroll into town. Hell, you could even wander in completely undisguised, as for some reason Halloween somehow reassured the local humans that the sudden arrival of the newcomers with the impossibly realistic costumes was, in fact, normal. The excitement that he radiated was shared among everyone else feasting in the room, including a recently awakened Vanthyne that theatrically announced his arrival into the dining room. The werewolf, his teeth still embedded within the lump of flesh before him, temporarily shifted his glance to the red imp to confirm that the voice he heard was, in fact, that fire imp. He grinned a little, knowing that there was always the chance that Vanthyne would get up to some mischief at the town-- of course, Trouble would want to capitalise on such mayhem. Given Vanthyne would probably get caught up in any chaos, there was no doubt in hell Trouble would be able to contribute to such hell. Vanthyne would probably welcome it. But then again, that's how Trouble would've imagined that theoretical scenario. He turned back to his cut of meat to continue ripping at it, knowing that if his theory didn't play out, he'd end up doing terrible things on his own-- even if Rose didn't exactly like it.

Then a memory suddenly hit him, reminding him of his actual circumstances regarding his planned trip to the town. Last halloween was a catastrophe when he went down there. What he pulled off went way too far, even for himself. Of course, it was extremely fun at the time-- but that was the thing, it was fun at the time. Since then, the people surely would've remembered the kid with the weird wolf costume was an absolute piece of crap and defiled their town. Trouble bit down extremely hard into the steak before him and sank his head shortly after. Somehow, he was still allowed down there by Rose, but long story short, unless he learnt how to achieve a completely human form.. he'd need to stick to keeping to the shadows. Or, you know, acting like someone's pet dog. There was near no way in hell the latter was going to happen though, it made Trouble's face scrunch up in embarrassment at the thought of it. But, of course.. he wanted to go. This kind of thing only happened once a year.

Sucking up his pride and that ego centrical 'lone-wolf' approach Trouble often took when going to the town for Halloween, he turned his head to Kythios and Vanthyne, who was sat only a few seats away and seemed to be having a casual conversation. The werewolf promptly dropped the hunk of flesh from his mouth and back to his place. He spoke up quite firmly so the two could hear him, knowing that if he seemed slightly hesitant with his delivery, Vanthyne could deny Trouble such company-- or maybe Trouble was looking too far into it.

"I'm going with you two," Stated Trouble, leaning slightly towards the two of them. He let out a small huff of air from his nose and played off his reliance on other people to get into the town normally as cool as he could. "I've got nothing better to do."
 
(Code? What's that?? Mine is broken.)

Pluto just couldn't help but enjoy how much Nyx hated this whole situation. He may never be able to roll the dude around and not have to worry about getting hit again! He needed to milk this. If Nyx acted up then Pluto could just kick the wheelchair over and listen to the sweet cuss words that would be directed towards him. But the highlight of the whole thing was when Nyx would cross his arms and pout. He would deny it but...Nyx's frown was basically a pout. Especially when he bitched about something. Pluto thought it was super cute.
"You would really allow me to give you a costume? I had hoped you would say that!" Pluto went back over to the pile of things and pulled out a crown made of pinecones, wood, deer antlers, and leaves. It was something Pluto had just thrown together during October, he thought if he wasn't going to wear it then Nyx might as well.
"You are now Nyx, king of the woods! wear your crown proudly." He chuckled as he set the crown on top of Nyx's head and made sure it would stay there. "Wow, look at that, just your size!" He also decided to toss some more leaves across Nyx's lap. "Done. That is the best I've got. Next time you should be more prepared."
'He looks gay.'
'This costume is shit. What is he even supposed to be?'
'Why didn't you just allow him to go out as himself. That being a horrible person.'

"Jason says you look great! Now let's go get some candy!" He grabbed a hold of the two pillow cases and started to wheel Nyx out the door and safely down the steps.
