General Halloween GP

[londoncallingmods]

Halloween was as spooky or dull as you needed it to be in London. From handing out treats to those who came knocking, to attending costume parties and concerts all over the city, there was something for everyone tonight.

 

Plenty of bars and clubs were offering discounts to anyone bold enough to turn up in costume, and even the underground was bursting with holiday cheer as costumed commuters came and went, breaking up the dull day to day routine one usually faced while making your way from point a to point b.

 

Even those who chose to skip the costume were indulging in treats or maybe a creepy film or two.

 

There was no excuse to be bored. Not tonight. Not on Halloween.

 

(General Halloween GP for those who aren't keen on the haunted house! Feel free to post your pup anywhere in the city, from fancy dress parties to street corners. Go wild (or, you know, stay tame. Your call) Also, because there are two GPs going up this week, both are open to new top levels for two whole weeks! And, of course, you can keep tagging long after that if you want. :D I'll post reminders daily on slack.)

"I just didn't think of it." He never bought himself nice things anymore.

[winter_wisp]

Winter cocked his head, studying his new friend, then shrugged.

Their hot chocolate and sweets arrived, and Winter grinned widely as he took his.

"Sweets!" he grinned.

[pixiesweat]

Manuel took his then looked back at Winter. "Do you want to sit?"

[winter_wisp]

Winter hummed a little, then nodded, carrying his things over to the first empty table he spotted.

The little bear shaped pastry sat on the table in front of him, and he growled at it before taking a huge bite.

[pixiesweat]

Manuel couldn't help smiling at that from behind the edge of his mug. "Is it good?"

[winter_wisp]

Winter nodded, looking down at the second pastry as he chewed.

The greedy part of him wanted to keep it- But Winter was a good pixie really, and he nudged it instead towards his new friend.

[pixiesweat]

Manuel set down his mug, wiped away the hot chocolate that was clinging to his lip, and took a bite of his pastry. "It is good," he agreed.

[winter_wisp]

Winter made a happy noise in agreement, finishing his and then sipping his chocolate.

"I should head home soon. I'm here to surprise my brothers. Did I tell you that? I forget. It's why I'm here though, in London. I am visiting my kin. They will be so pleased to see me! Maybe I'll get presents!"

"That's nice," Manuel said, with a small smile. "Did you come from... a long way away?" There was something meaningful in the last part of the question, like he was asking something else that he couldn't come right out and say.

He was really asking if Winter had come from Faerie. Though whether the other pixie would pick up on the hidden meaning was another thing.

[winter_wisp]

"Yes," Winter replied honestly, seeing no reason to lie to one of their own- Even if he was a little mortal. "Another place completely. A place where our kin rule."
