Creepy old abandoned mansion on Phoenix Way, Wednesday evening

[locointhecoco]

Pinkie had spent all day -- barring her class, of course -- getting the mansion ready for the Halloween party. If anyone had any protests over her rather liberal use of black and orange balloons, streamers, party hats, table cloths, and confetti, she wasn't hearing them over the noise of her party cannon.

Kitty made a fantastic party helper, at least, helping rearrange what little furniture was already set up (so that's what hands were for!) and doing the many things that even the party cannon couldn't do (such as keep Pinkie from eating all the snacks before the party could even start).

Then, at last, it was time to get into costume. Pinkie had promised to show Kitty just what Nightmare Night was all about, and her Nightmare Moon costume delivered in spades, if she did say so herself. Sure, the glowing contact lenses were uncomfortable, and the black make-up was going to be rather difficult to get out of her coat later, but she was rocking those plastic fangs.

And Mike had had enough to drink that even the last of the urge to flail about the fact that a talking pony had used a cannon to get his house ready for a party.

His smile actually looked pretty genuine.

"Thank you," he said, tossing his hair back. "Nice job decorating the place, by the way."

"Thanks! It helps that this place is already kinda spooky."

"Well, for once it's pretty appropriate." Not so much when you were living there usually. "Once in a lifetime chance."

Because if he was still here in a year, he sure as hell hoped the house wouldn't look like this.

Pinkie looked shifty, then leaned in to whisper really loudly at him. "I'm kinda hoping you'll help fix that," she said. "Derek's not really good at housekeeping."

Mike laughed despite himself. "Yeah, that's the plan. I got my furniture coming in soon, we're gonna splash some paint here and there, it's gonna be fine."

"Let me know if you need any help! I'm a great painter!"

Though she would possibly paint her own face smiling at a happy sun if she was given the chance.

That was exactly the kind of concern that came to Mike's mind upon hearing that, yes.

"I'll... keep that in mind. But thanks!"
