bill chuckled softly as he nodded his head in agreement as the other spoke, “finding p-people who will put up with you through the g-good and the bad is the hard part of it all. that’s why a smaller group of friends is ideal, other than the whole overwhelming aspect.” he explained, teeth sinking into his bottom lip for a moment. when the other mentioned feeling accomplished just for attending in the first place, bill felt further reassured. leaving the masquerade early had been on his mind ever since he entered the crowded venue, but at least he managed to push himself out of his comfort zone to attend. he could at least say that he hadn’t missed out on an opportunity. “you d-definitely helped make my night better, so c-consider yourself accomplished as well.” he glanced down at the fidget cube, running his finger over it once more. “i’ll keep it so that m-maybe one day i can return the favor when you need it.” he promised. “are you staying here a b-bit longer? if not, maybe we could walk out together?” he didn’t want to make any assumptions but would love to have some company.

Blythe was looking through the multiple racks of clothing at the thrift store humming a bit as he looking already holding a pair of pants he thought would look good on Zed, and he saw an emerald green dress shirt and he smiled picking it up, he always thought green looked nice on Zed and he walked over to the other holding the clothes out for him to take showing him his phone that he had already had what he wanted to say typed out "I think you should try these on first before we leave, maybe the store will let us wear them out, I think these would look really nice on you and I stayed under budget are you proud?" He knew that other dates probably had much cooler things to do than he had planned, but he was paying for all of this out of pocket and he knew this was fun, and was honestly glad Zed had been the one to bid on him because he would think this was just as fun as he did and wouldn’t judge him from not having a fancy and expensive date.

gretchen bid on the other full on knowing that the other would probably be looking to go out and have fun and party somewhere which was exactly why she chose to bid on pepe. she wanted to go out and have fun as well and it was for a good cause so she figured why not. though she was pretty surprised she won, but she was not surprised at the choice of venue pepe had planned out for the date. she was excited when pepe informed her they’d be going out and drinking and partying which was perfect. she dressed her best after spending a few hours getting ready, i was a date after all and she wanted to look her best. finally gretchen was ready for a fun filled night. once there it took the two no time to dive right into the scene buying drinks and bouncing to the music at play. with drink in hand she looks to pepe grinning. “this place is perfect! i can’t believe i’ve never been here before!” she exclaims laughing. “how’d you know about it?” she sups her drink happily. // @tornminds

lucifer was beyond amused by this whole situation, the devil always finding himself thriving in the wake of chaos. so it was no surprise that he was drawn to a tragic scene, noticing someone mid-transformation and obviously in pain from the nature of the change. their lips pursed as they allowed themself to come dangerously close to the creature, a glimmer of amusement in their eyes. “ aw, poor pup … i feel like i should help you out here. or maybe i can somehow train you ? i’m lacking an obedient little hellhound here and i need someone who has a bark worse than my bite. ” he teased, a smirk stretching across their lips. “ swear your loyalty to me and i’ll take your pain away. ”

the duke had zero explanation for how he ended up on this strange planet, but he wasn’t entirely sure if he was dreaming or not. at this point, it was often difficult to tell with how much his dreams and reality had begun to blend. he just figured that this was a detour on his main journey, another test. a shaky breath fell from paul’s lips as his hand rested on the handle of his weapon, slowly beginning to explore the town in hopes of uncovering some sort of answers. that’s when he saw someone up ahead that caused a shiver to run down his spine, jaw clenching as he met their gaze. “you… you’re not human, i can tell.” he murmured before drawing his knife. “i’ve dealt with creatures far scarier than you, so you should let me pass with no issues.”

at the stroke of midnight, freddie had found himself not necessarily changing in the same way that some of his peers did. although he had an air of confidence and swagger that unlike himself. amongst the panic and chaos that had broken out, he had decided to try and take advantage of the situation. certainly, no one would notice their wallets going missing if they were too busy freaking out. he had already swiped two wallets and slipped them into his pouch before continuing. his pace slowing when his gaze landed on someone who not only appeared to be wealthy but distraught. he cleared his throat as he slowly approached the other, “pardon me for prying but… you look a little upset. is there anything i can do to possibly help you?” of course in the end, he could hold doing the other a favor over his head and ask for some sort of payment.

while kiara wasn’t exactly matching with her roommate and best friend, she felt oddly accomplished that she and john b had managed to pick out cohesive costumes. although when she was finally separated from his side, she felt like a fish out of water. pun intended. she immediately began to scan over the crowd, looking for a friendly face or some sort of distraction. that when her gaze landed on a face that caused her to do a double take, confusion washing over her when he actually decided to head in her direction after their gazes locked. her brows knit together as she stared at the other in disbelief, realizing her initial suspicion had been proven true. “ holy shit !! jj ? i almost didn’t recognize you for a second. ” she couldn’t stop herself from bursting out in laughter. “ you look ridiculous but i love it. i’m glad that you finally managed to get a date. ” she nodded down to the volleyball with him.

while it might not have appeared like it due to the apathetic expression that taehee typically wore, she was having a really good time tonight. she had decided to attend the dance on a whim, encouraged by her roommate and coworkers to do so. initially, she thought it would be a choice that she would come to regret but that turned out to be far from true. she had just finished a game of bobbing for apples and took her small prize of a large slice of pumpkin-flavored cheesecake over to a table. she decided to sit down with someone who was already seated at a table, “wow, you look pretty badass. you’re joan of arc, right?” she was impressed by how all out the other seemed to have gone with her costume. “would you like to share this cake with me? it’d be an honor to share this with a saint.” she teased, offering the spare fork she had on her plate out to the other.
