Halloween Costume Party!!

Halloween Costume Party!!

For CBers, AEs, CAPTCHAs, whomever!

Halloween is upon us, and - 

Hey! You said I could say that part.

Oh, right, um, go ahead. 

Yes! Halloween is upon us, and we have decided - 

You forgot the quote.

What?

The Goodrich quote. You were going to say it at the beginning of the speech. 

Oh, right. Um, werewolves howl, phantoms prowl, etc etc etc.

That's not how the quote goes.

I DON'T CARE.

Um, guys, we're supposed to be introducing the party. 

Well, I would be, but SOMEONE interuppted.

I just thought you were saying the quote.

Well I can say whatever I want!!

Oook, take two -

~~~

Werewolves howl, phantoms prowl, halloween's upon us now. --Richelle E. Goodrich. So we have decided to throw a party!  

Anybody can attend, whether you are an AE, CAPTCHA, CBer, CaptchAE, or some unidentified species. All are welcome!

But you have to wear a costume!

I'm still not wearing a costume. 

Yes you are.

No I'm not.

Yes you -

Anywho. The party will be in The Park, and we'll have plenty of food, but feel free to bring some spooky treats!

And there's a HAUNTED HOUSE!

Yes, yes, and yes. There will also be a picnic pavilion for the CBers to all hang out, dance, and chat, and a separate pavilion for AEs (although feel free to intermingle)

Don't forget your costumes! The party will start on October 24. Sorry for the short notice, but we are not avid party planners. Well, Diana is, but the rest of us aren't.

~~||NerdFace||~~

i slam the driver’s car door shut and walk around my beautiful, green minivan to join my AEs. I check my phone to make sure I have the right park. This is my first party as a CBer and I don’t want to mess it up. “Why are you the one who drives again? Aren’t you only 13?” Cameron says, looking a tad flustered. “Because I can do what ever I want, thank you very much.” I retort. I am a the perfect driver. I look at the large area of green in front of me and it is gorgeous. I look to my AEs. “Why did I have to come again? I could be reading. Or doing something that doesn’t rely on interaction with beings.” Adrian complains. *because it’s a PARTAY, Adrian. My first party, in fact. DALLAS IN THE HOOUSE!* “This is our chance to meet people, Adrian. I don’t know anyone besides PygmyOwl, and I’d like to get to know some more. Dallas, be quiet. I don’t need that.” I sigh. Heavily. This is going to be a long night. I already had to change my costume for something that ACTUALLY fit, which was very annoying. I didn’t need questions on top of questions also. “Let’s go, shall we?” Aspen says, obviously sensing the awkawardness. “Sure. Why not? I’m not nervous.” I say, as I nervously chuckle. “Okay. Come on!” Aspen says, grabbing my arm and pulling. Cameron, Adrian, Dallas, and Evan follow as we run towards what looks like the pavilion. I don’t see anyone there, yet. I sit on a bench and my AE’s follow. Adrian pulls out their book to read, Dallas plays a drum solo on the table (which to be quite honest is quite annoying), Cameron scrolls through her phone, I have no clue what Evan is doing, and Aspen sits cheerfully, looking around the park. And we just wait for someone to arrive.  

 

~~||Cameron||~~

I get out of NerdFace’s car, rather shaken. I don’t know why I let her drive. She comes around to our side. “Why are you the one who drives again? Aren’t you only 13?” I question. She looks at me like I’M the idiot and says, “Because I can do whatever I want, thank you very much.” What a great answer. Whatever. I’m at a party. I should relax. “Why did I have to come again? I could be reading. Or doing something that doesn’t rely on interaction with beings.” Adrian complains. Dallas responds with, *because it’s a PARTAY, Adrian. My first party, in fact. DALLAS IN THE HOOUSE* “This is our chance to meet people, Adrian. I don’t know anyone besides PygmyOwl, and I’d like to get to know some more. Dallas, be quiet. I don’t need that.” NerdFace responds, with a heavy sigh. Sometimes I wish I didn’t have siblings. But I don’t know what I would do with out them. We have a party in the first month we have been here and I’m so excited. As I’m about to drift into a daydream, Aspen says, “Let’s go, shall we?” I nod. “Sure. Why not? I’m not nervous.” NerdFace says as she nervously chuckles. What the irony. I think. “Okay. Come on!” Aspen grabs Nerd’s arm and pulls her towards the park. I grab Adrian, who grabs Dallas, who grabs Evan and we run with them. We stop at a bench at a pavilion and we all sit down. I look around. It doesn’t seem like we should be doing anything, yet, so I pull out my phone and check social media. And we just wait for someone to show up. 

 

~~||Aspen||~~

I climb out of the backseat of NerdFace’s minivan, pulling Adrian with me, after probably the ride of my life. We let her drive, and I think she can drive better than me. I scan the park, which looks rather empty, and I get nervous. Maybe we’re at the wrong place. Nerd seems to deny that as she doesn’t say anything after checking her phone. “Why are you the one who drives again?” My 17-year-old sister says. She looks quite flustered, which is hilarious. Nerd retorts with “Because I can do whatever I want, thank you very much.” I suppress a laugh. That is the best response. I look at Adrian. They look nervous. They’re not a huge people person. “Why did I have to come again? I could be reading. Or doing something that doesn’t rely on interaction with beings.” Adrian complains, nervously. I feel bad for him. They’ve had it rough. *because it’s a PARTAY, Adrian. My first party, in fact. DALLAS IN THE HOOUSE* I try my hardest not to laugh at him. I don’t need Dallas like this. He’s already too much. “This is our chance to meet people, Adrian. I don’t know anyone besides PygmyOwl, and I’d like to get to know some more. Dallas, be quiet. I don’t need that.” NerdFace sighs, heavily afterwards. She’s nervous, I can tell. She is fading into the introverted side of her personality. I can’t let that happen. “Let’s go, shall we?” I question. “Sure. Why not? I’m not nervous.” She nervously chuckles afterwards. Aha! “Okay. Come on!” I grab her arm and pull her towards what I think the pavilion is. My siblings follow behind. We stop at a bench, sit down, and I wait for someone to arrive. 

 

~~||Adrian||~~

I don’t want to go to this party. I want to read, or write, or watch Hamilton for the tenth time, but I don’t have a choice. Aspen literally yanks me out of the car. My arm hurts now. I notice that I’m still standing in the door frame when Dallas kicks my knees in so I almost collapse. I move forward and ignore him. “Why are you the one who drives again?” Cameron asks. Clearly, she didn’t like NerdFace driving. “Because I can do whatever I want, thank you very much.” Then, I remember that I don’t want to be her. I decide to try and complain. Maybe that will work. “Why did I have to come again? I could be reading. Or doing something that doesn’t rely on interactions with beings.” I did bring a book, but reading in a party doesn’t really go well. *because it’s a PARTAY, Adrian.* I tune him out for whatever he says next. I very much dislike Dallas. “This is our chance to meet people, Adrian. I don’t know anyone besides PygmyOwl, and I’d like to get to know some more. Dallas, be quiet. I don’t need that.” NerdFace responds. I immediately forget who PygmyOwl is. I guess I’ll find out. “Let’s go, shall we?” Aspen asks. I nod, but it’s a very slow nod. “Okay. Come on!” Aspen grabs NerdFace and they run to the pavilion. Cameron grabs my arm and I grab Dallas’s and Dallas grabs Evan. We run, too. I dislike running, but I guess I’ll run. We finally stop at a bench and I sit down immediately. I pull out, To Kill A Mockingbird and try to read while Dallas bangs on the table trying to make music. And I ignore him. 

 

~~||*Dallas*||~~

*I’m trying to get out of the car, but Adrian is blocking the outside. Coward. This is a party. He needs to let loose. I kick his knees in and he barely moves. But it’s enough to get out. I turn around and help Evan out and we join the others.* “Why are you the one who drives again?” *My oldest sister asks NerdFace. I think her driving was awesome. Oh wait. She can’t hear my thoughts. Her driving was terrible.* “Because I can do what ever I want, thank you very much.” She says. If she can do whatever, I can do whatever. We are the same age, after all. Then, I remember why we are here. THERE IS A PARTAY TO BE AT. Now I’m actually excited.* “Why did I have to come again? I could be reading. Or doing something that doesn’t rely on interactions with beings.” I did bring a book, but reading in a party doesn’t really go well.” *That dork doesn’t understand the meaning of fun, do they.* “*because it’s a PARTAY, Adrian. My first party, in fact. DALLAS IN THE HOOUSE!*” I say. I wonder if there is a basketball court. Maybe I could get some practice in. NerdFace says something to Adrian, but I don’t pay attention. Then I hear my name.* “Dallas, be quiet. I don’t need that.” She says. *How rude. I am amazing. I am superior. I don’t get told to be quiet.* “Let’s go, shall we?” My sister, Aspen, says. *I’ve been ready this whole time.* “Okay. Come on!” She shouts. *Next thing I know, Adrian is pulling my arm. I grab ahold of Evan and we run to the pavilion thingy. These losers are slow. I sit down and the bench and decide to bang on the table and make noise because, why not? And just like that, we are waiting. I despise waiting.*

 

~~||<Evan>||~~

<I’m 10 years old and for some reason my siblings trust me at a party. I can barely see out of my helmet that I’m wearing. Someone grabs my arm and helps me out of the car. I try to look around, but all I can see is hazy orange and blurry images. Maybe this helmet wasn’t the best idea. I think Cameron said something, but it was so muffled, I didn’t understand. I try to pull the helmet off my head, but it’s stuck. NerdFace says something, but I miss out on that, too. I want to scream. I want to cry. I want to be upset like a little baby. I’m 10 now. 10 year olds don’t do that. Adrian complains about something. Then, someone says something that I can actually understand. Because it was Dallas. Yelling at the top of his lungs.> “*… PARTAY …… DALLAS IN THE HOOUSE.*” <Typical Dallas. NerdFace says something again, which I can’t hear. What is in this helmet! I can’t hear, I can barely see, and I can’t get it off. Aspen says something, Nerd replies, and then Aspen says something again. Next thing I know, someone is pulling me and I am running. I stop when I run into a bench and I sit down. I try fiercely to get the helmet off. I wonder if I am going to meet anyone today. That would be fun. I keep pulling. I must look insane. I give up and I wait for someone to realize.

Oh, and just in case Evan wants a 10 year old, I think I have another AE ready, um, Majecstic Mary and her AEs/CAPTCHAs, is it alright if there are 2 late arrivals? If so, here. 

Waterfall is a water dragon, she somehow can mindread idk why, she's more introverted yet very fun, and imma fill all this out later.

Spellcaster is my other AE, 10 years old, quiet but actually extroverted, and she can cast spells with a limit of 10 spells every day unless they're for the fun of it ;D

----Nightfall-----

I step off the dragon, sliding down the wing majestically. I've decided to be an ice princess thingie instead. Galaxy, Ocean, Burn, Ibi, and Gio follow. "Come on guys, we're almost laaate!" complains Burn, rushing through the grass hurridley. Galaxy facepalms herself, and yells after him,"You'll be sorry!" I sigh and heave the food onto a rolling table. Ibi nudges it toward a regular picnic table, and pushes it onto the table. <there> <ugooi>, she says. I smile and let her run off, and Gio curles up in a grass thing. I spot another new CBer, Nerdface, and rush off towards her. "Hi NerdFace!" I greet, panting. 

---Galaxy---

I follow Nightfall off the white dragon, and pet it's head. "Sorry Waterfall, we need to go." She replies, +thats+ +okkii+ I smiled and listen to Burn complain, and yell after him, "YOU'LL BE SORRY!!" I facepalm myself, and float off dreamily towards the other AEs, probably NerdFace's. Nightfall went to 'associate' with NerdFace.

---Burn---

I yell and jump off Waterfall. "COME ON GUYS WERE ALMOST LATE!" I yell as I run to the table. I munch on a ghost cookie while I wait.

---Ocean---

I sigh and float off the dragon in a wave of water, then rush over to the AEs and Galaxy. 

PS - Ibi and Gio are no longer coming, sorry for that.

Mary ~~ 

Diana spreads out the last tablecloth and hurries over to join Georgia and Arrow at the AE pavilion, and not a moment too soon - I can see our guests pouring into the park. I guess it's time to welcome everyone to the party.
I walk out of the pavilion, stand on a table, and pick up a conviniently placed microphone.  
"Hello everyone!" I shout, and the mic returns with horrible feedback. I cringe, and try again. "Welcome to our 2020 Halloween party! It's going to be a night full of tricks, treats, and fun activities! In case you haven't noticed, we've got a spookiful haunted house-" I gesture to the tall house that looks like it could fall on us at any moment. "We've also got a massive corn maze, for anyone who wants to try it out. And of course, we have our giant buffet tables. We're prepared to have a ton of fun!" But I'm obviously not prepared to make a welcome speech that's not cringey. I decide to wrap it up as soon as I can. "The costume contest will be in an hour, and I'll give you more details on it then. I hope you all have a ton of fun! Now let's party!" 
Phew, thank goodness that's over. I stuff a cupcake in my mouth and see some friends coming my way. 
"Hey guys!" I say, cupcake crumbs flying out of my mouth.

(October 24, 2020 - 8:40 pm)

~~||NerdFace||~~

I’m so nervous that I don’t even notice a giant dragon fly in. My AEs have drifted to the AE pavilion and left me all by my lonesome. I hear people shouting and I assume it is just people here to enjoy the park. I check my phone. The party should start soon, but I still don’t see anyone here. Suddenly, there is someone who I vaguely recognize. I believe her name is Nightfall. “Hi NerdFace!” She says, out of breath. “Hi, Nightfall. Do call me Nerd. I absolutely love your costume! How are you today?” 

 

~~||Cameron||~~

I’m rudely stolen from instagram when a giant dragon lands in the park. I see a CBer, 3 AEs and 2 CAPTCHAs dismount from the dragon. The girl who is obviously a CBer runs over to NerdFace. The AEs begin to come our way. I stand up from where I’m sitting and walk over to greet them. “Hi there. I’m Cameron, that’s Aspen, Adrian, Dallas, and Evan. What are your names?” I say, as I hold out my hand. 

 

~~||Aspen||~~

I almost gasp when I see a dragon land in the park. A real life dragon. HERE. 4 beings and 2 CAPTCHAs dismount the dragon. One goes over to Nerd. The CAPTCHAs curl up in the grass and the AEs start to drift over to where we are. Cameron stands up and waits for them to reach her. “Hi there. I’m Cameron, that’s Aspen, Adrian, Dallas, and Evan. What are your names?” She says. I wave slightly when she says my name. I feel Evan grab my shirt and hide behind me. I let him stay. New people! I’m so excited. 

 

~~||Adrian||~~

The book I’m reading is starting to get good. It’s had to been at least 15 minutes since we got here. I look up and search the park when I see figures dismounting this giant dragon. Oh no. People are here. Oh no, oh no, oh no. I suddenly get even more nervous. ‘Relax Adrian, it’s okay. Not everyone is going to throw basketballs at you like Dallas. It’s okay. Meet some people.’ A voice in my head says. I notice Cameron stand to greet AEs coming our way. “Hi there. I’m Cameron, that’s Aspen, Adrian, Dallas, and Evan. What are your names?” She says, extending her hand. I feel my face grow hot and I hide behind my book. Maybe they won’t see me behind the comforting pages in my alternate universe. And then I notice I’m staring and I grow even more hot. I hide farther in my book and pretend I don’t exist. 

 

~~||*Dallas*||~~

*OH. MY. GOODNESS. THERE. IS. A. REAL. LIFE. DRAGON. IN. THE. PARK. Six figures dismount the dragon and they split, almost immediately. One goes over to, ahem, NERD, two beings who appear to be animals stay in the grass area, and three AEs approach us in the pavilion. None of them look my age at all, but maybe someone will throw the football with me or something. Or I could just throw basketballs at Adrian. That would be fun. I watch Cameron stand.* “Hi there. I’m Cameron, that’s Aspen, Adrian, Dallas, and Evan. What are your names?” She says. When she says my name, I throw a peace sign and try to act cool. I hope I’m not coming off as arrogant. 

 

~~||<Evan>||~~

I’ve managed to get my helmet off, but not without it shattering. Dallas banged on my head with a steel pipe until it broke. I believe he enjoyed it, but I didn’t. My head is all sore and fuzzy. I black things out at times, but it doesn’t matter that much. I’ve just recovered from a blackout when I realize there are 3 AEs coming over and none of them look 10. They look about Cameron’s age. “Hi there. I’m Cameron, that’s Aspen, Adrian, Dallas, and Evan. What are your names?” As she says my name, I find their gaze land on me. I immediately get scared and shy. I’m 10, what do you expect?! As sly as I can be, I get up and I hide behind Aspen, holding onto her shirt, and pretending I’m not actually there.

---Nightfall---

NerdFace responds, “Hi, Nightfall. Do call me Nerd. I absolutely love your costume! How are you today?” 

"So, I was discussing this with Lupine earlier in Daydreams Cafe, and I wanted to ask : is a computer tech or an alien device from creatures trying to take over the world? Oh, and I'm good. What about you?" I ask. 

---Galaxy---

“Hi there. I’m Cameron, that’s Aspen, Adrian, Dallas, and Evan. What are your names?” She says. 

I smile and say, "I'm Galaxy, the Arctic Wolf and Cat in the grass area are Ibi and Gio, Ibi the wolf, and Gio the cat. That's Burn by the food table trying to sneak some more cookies, my cookies are actually quite good, to be honest, and that's Ocean with the silver-blue hair. Nice to meet you!"  

I spot Evan who hides behind, I think, Aspen's shirt. 

"Hi!" I say, being friendly me. "Would you like a ghost cookie?" After I say that, I slap my forehead. I sound like an ad. As always. Cheesy. Heh. I call Burn over. "BUUURN!" I yell. "ITS NOT TIME TO EAT!" He runs over and screams, "HI MY NAME IS BURN IM GETTING HYPERACTIVE~" before I shove a donut in his mouth. I notice they're all staring at Waterfall, so I call her over. "WATERFALL!" I shout. +whati+ +sitan+ +yting+ +rwong+? I introduce her to the other AEs. "This is Waterfall, our CAPTCHA dragon, she didn't want to come to the party, but I'm letting her roam around. She's kinda mine, cause I'm the only one taking care of her. 

---Burn---

I keep on eating cookies until Galaxy calls me over. Reluctantly, I answer and run over. "HI MY NAME IS BURN IM GETTING HYPERACTIVE~"

Just then, Galaxy pushes me and shoves a donute at me. I forget about everything and start munching on the donut. 

---Ocean---

I shyly smile as Galaxy introduces me, then flips open my e-book. I notice Dallas trying to act cool. I inch over to Dallas and whisper, "Don't worry, Galaxy is really nice. Burn is just being rude and all." I spot another AE, Adrian, with a book, ferociously reading, and I inch away from him and sit down, nibbling on a donut while re-reading Wings of Fire for the umpteenth time.

~~||NerdFace||~~

I just barely finished my statement when there is a voice that booms over the speaker system. “Hello everyone!” The voice says. I cringe after the terrible feedback that comes after. “Welcome to our 2020 halloween party! It’s going to be a night filled with tricks, treats, and fun activities! In case you haven’t noticed, we’ve got a spoonful haunted house-“ The speaker, who I believe is Majestic Mary, points at the dilapidated house that is quite an eyesore, if you ask me. “We’ve also got a massive corn maze, for anyone who wants to try it out. And of course, we have our giant buffet tables. We’re prepared to have a lot of fun! The costume contest will be in an hour, and I’ll give you more details on it then. I hope you all have a ton of fun! Now let’s party!” She goes off towards the buffet table and Nightfall answers me. “So I was discussing this with Lupine earlier in Daydreams Café, and I wanted to ask: is a computer tech or and alien device from creatures trying to take over the world? Oh, I’m good. What about you?” “Yes,” I say. “There are computer things taking over the world. They are called Siri, Alexa, and Google.” I laugh maniacally. “Sorry. I have a weird thing with tech things. I’m good, thanks for asking.” I pause and look at the haunted house. I decide I’m not going in there, not on my life. Then, Mary comes our way. “Hi guys!” She says, with crumbs falling out of her mouth. I laugh. “Hi. Great party, Mary. How are you doing?”

 

~~||Cameron||~~

I completely ignore the welcoming statement, as I don’t really care. “I’m Galaxy, the arctic wolf and cat in the grass area are Ibi and Gio, Ibi the wolf, and Gio the cat. That’s Burn by the food table trying to sneak some more cookies, my cookies are actually quite good, to be honest, and that’s Ocean with the silver-blue hair. Nice to meet you!” The girl named Galaxy says. She spots Evan hiding behind Aspen and whispers something to him, but then slaps her forehead, for some reason. “BUUURN! ITS NOT TIME TO EAT!” Galaxy yells. Burn comes running. “HI MY NAME IS BURN AND I’M GETTING HYPERACTIVE-“ then Galaxy shoves a doughnut in his mouth. Next thing I know, Galaxy is calling over their CAPTCHA dragon. I don’t even pay attention to her speaking, I just gape and the beautiful dragon. “She’s beautiful, Galaxy.” I say with a smile. “Is there anything you have your eye on doing tonight?”

 

~~||Aspen||~~

“Hello everyone!” A voice says over the loud speaker. I almost scream. “Welcome to our 2020 halloween party! It’s going to be a night filled with tricks, treats, and fun activities! In case you haven’t noticed, we’ve got a spoonful haunted house-“ The speaker points at the dilapidated house that must me the haunted house. “We’ve also got a massive corn maze, for anyone who wants to try it out. And of course, we have our giant buffet tables. We’re prepared to have a lot of fun! The costume contest will be in an hour, and I’ll give you more details on it then. I hope you all have a ton of fun! Now let’s party!” The girl finishes her speech and walks over to the massive food tables. I remember there are other AE’s here. I’m Galaxy, the arctic wolf and cat in the grass area are Ibi and Gio, Ibi the wolf, and Gio the cat. That’s Burn by the food table trying to sneak some more cookies, my cookies are actually quite good, to be honest, and that’s Ocean with the silver-blue hair. Nice to meet you!” Galaxy says. Then, she leans in real close to me and whispers to Evan. Then she starts yelling. “BUUUUURN! ITS NOT TIME TO EAT!” The AE who must Burn comes running over. “HI MY NAME IS BURN AND I’M GETTING HYPERACTIVE-“ He is cut off when Galaxy shoves a doughnut in his mouth. I look at Evan. “Hey bud. You wanna go get something to eat and then go look at the corn maze?” I ask. He nods. “<do you think they’ll have sour patch kids?>” He asks. I shrug and stand up, leading him away. 

 

~~||Adrian||~~

I’ve never enjoyed announcement speeches, so I tune out the speaker the best I can. I keep hiding in my book, hoping that no one sees how red my face is. My dark skin helps to hide it, but I’m still almost completely red. I also ignore the introductions, because I don’t remember names that well. I try to read, but there is yelling. I dislike yelling. I’m scared out of my mind when a girl leans across the table and whispers something to Dallas, who looks like he’s constipated. She looks at me and I pretend to be immersed in my book. Then I realize she is reading, too. NerdFace’s voice echos in my head. ‘This is our chance to meet people, Adrian.’ So, I decide to go out on a limb. “U-um, uh, hi, I’m Adrian. Um, w-what’s y-your name and uh, what are you, uh, reading?” I say, scared out of my mind. Dallas chuckles in the background and I shoot him a glare. I just hope I didn’t embarrass myself. 

 

~~||*Dallas*||~~

*Announcement speech? Blah, blah, blah. People saying who they are? Blah, blah, and even more blah. I stay in my own head while Cameron and some girl talk. The haunted house looks pretty epic. Maybe I’ll try that out later. Then, the girl Cameron is talking to yells at some guy and the guy comes running over yelling, too. A girl sitting across the table from me leans over and says*, “Don't worry, Galaxy is really nice. Burn is just being rude and all." *I nod my head and barely whisper out a thank you. I notice her look at Adrian, and return to her book. Adrian is scared I can tell. But they are also thinking. Adrian then does something that surprises me*. “U-um, uh, hi, I’m Adrian. Um, w-what’s y-your name and uh, what are you, uh, reading?” *They say. I laugh, slightly. What a pathetic attempt at talking. They glare at me and it makes me chuckle harder. Oh, what a dork. 

 

~~||<Evan>||~~

<I’m hiding behind Aspen, so I can’t really hear the host announce things. I also don’t hear the tall girl say who she is and who she is with. I feel like I’m 5 again. What 10-year-old hides behind someone? Oh, right, and introverted me. The tall girl leans over and says,> “Hi! Would you like a ghost cookie?” <She then hits her forehead. I think about responding, but she is already yelling at someone else. The guy she is yelling at comes over yelling and she shoves a doughnut in his face. I laugh. Aspen turns to look at me.> “Hey bud. You wanna go get something to eat and then go look at the corn maze?” <She asks. I nod.> “<do you think they’ll have sour patch kids?>” I ask her. She just shrugs, stands up, takes my hand, and pulls me over to the giant buffet tables.

---Nightfall---

“Yes,” Nerd says. “There are computer things taking over the world. They are called Siri, Alexa, and Google.” I laugh maniacally. “Sorry. I have a weird thing with tech things. I’m good, thanks for asking.” "Hi guys!" says Mary, who came over with a mouth full of cookies. “Hi. Great party, Mary. How are you doing?” Nerd answers. "Yes, this is a great party." I say. "My AEs are being themselves, I brought a lot of food, so it should be ok, cause Burn eats a lot. 

---Galaxy---

“She’s beautiful, Galaxy.”  Cameron says with a smile. “Is there anything you have your eye on doing tonight?” "Not really." I answer. "Waterfall is pretty amazing. Oh, and she can mindread somehow, I don't know why. Pretty useful, and she's really pretty."Aspen and Evan leave, and I overhear 'sour patch kids'. "Uh, Evan, if you want sour patch kids, you could always ask Spellcaster, she's your age, 10, and she brought candy, a lot of it. There should be some sour patch kids in there."  “U-um, uh, hi, I’m Adrian. Um, w-what’s y-your name and uh, what are you, uh, reading?” Adrian says to Ocean. Dallas laughs and I secretly shoot him a glare, sidle up to him, and hiss, "Right now is not the time to laugh at people ok?!!" Just then, Spellcaster arrives. [Hi Galaxy! I'm here now!] she says. I smile and reply, "Good. EVAN, THERES SOMEONE I WANT YOU TO MEET!" 

---Burn---

I listen to Galaxy and Cameron chat about Waterfall, our CAPTCHA dragon. I leave for a bit, heading for the food table. Nightfall is happy with it, so I don't care. I munch on a ghost cookie while I start going on the web, looking what interesting things to do. Kinda bored heeere.

---Ocean---

Dallas whispers a thank you, and Adrian says, “U-um, uh, hi, I’m Adrian. Um, w-what’s y-your name and uh, what are you, uh, reading?” I answer, "I'm Ocean, and this is Wings of Fire, it's really good, I'm stilllll reading it after a milllllion years." Aspen and Evan leave for something, and I barely listen to the announcments. I'm kinda bored. 

---[Spellcaster]---

[Another dragon CAPTCHA, Snowy, drops me off. I slide towards Galaxy. "Hi Galaxy! I'm here now!" I say.  She answers,] "Good. EVAN, THERES SOMEONE I WANT YOU TO MEET!"[I look frightened, a bit.]
