22nd: The Pumpkins of Haruhi Suzumiya

[So things have gotten a bit chaotic in the village and... the moon doesn't look good, masks. Obviously an experiment all around. Haruhi was going to go with Leon's suggestion about carving the pumpkins with the Brigade (maybe make a contest out of it) but the fact is that in light of the current situation, that just doesn't seem to be happening. So... she collected her girlfriend, and decided to combine a nice picnic with carving out some of the pumpkins her and Leon brought to be Brigade room.

You might see them on the grass outside the square, sitting there and either eating or carving out some jack-o-lanterns. Either way, just being there together and chatting. Some of the completed pumpkins stand off to the side, either with faces or with things carved into them. They are prime to be hit up by anyone. Haruhi even has a bag she's been filling up with masks she's collected next to her.

Joint post with crytearsofjoy. Neither is masked in this post (if you want that hit them up in the mass log) but please feel free to bring you masknanigans in on them! In fact that's what we're aiming form. Replies from both of them obviously]

Oh gee, thanks, that's so inviting. [Now she really feels wanted.]

Don't let Haruhi get to you, Ed.

[What'd she do? Hmph!]

...Fine, I guess I can stay for a bit. [And watch. Or something. With a shrug, she leans in, peering at the faces they'd already made.] So what're you going to do with them when you're done?

We'll put candles in them and have them light up at night.

I was going to put one on the porch of my house. And two outside the HQ.

And you just... give them faces? [That doesn't seem so hard.]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Or designs. I'm thinking about making one with a cat for Al.

No one said it had to be complex! But... if you do make it complex that's all the better because the end result is much better looking.

I could just do it my way. [Alchemy could totally make a badass pumpkin carving, awwww yeah.

Actually, that sounds much more appealing than getting muck in the automail.]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, that the fun right out of it.

If you do that, challenge! Fuse three pumpkins together into a coherent larger pumpkin.

[autoamazon.livejournal.com]

Sounds easy enough! I can handle that. [Now her interest is piqued. She reaches for the pumpkins, dragging a couple of them over.]

[Winry just watches. Hmph, alchemy.]

[godbent]

Remember, it has to be seemless!

[But she's so interested now]

[With a clap of her hands, Ed touches the pumpkins, expertly transmuting them together. The result is fairly predictable to anyone who knows Ed- something of a monstrosity, fitting enough for a holiday like Halloween, with skulls and monsters and other fun stuff that she's always loved to decorate her transmutations with. Besides the usual telltale marks of being transmuted here and there, it's a perfect fusion.]

Done!

It's hideous.

[ action ]

[godbent]

...It's artful?

[But also hideous]

Hey, shut up! It looks awesome!

[DON'T INSULT HER BEAUTIFUL CREATION GUYS.]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

You gave the pumpkin horns.

[ action ]

[godbent]

It is... artful.

[ action ]

[autoamazon.livejournal.com]

You said that already. [IS IT THAT BAD.]

[ action ]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

I guess you couldn't escape the sense of poor taste.

[godbent]

Oh, no I meant... Ar- ... Awf- Awf-some?
