[Right. Spiked punch. This kid here has discovered it already. Because every Halloween party needs a drunk six year old dressed like the White Rabbit from hell. Of course he currently has the mask pushed back enough so that he can sip at his cup of punch while he surveys the party. Chimera's never been to an event like this before, so everything is new and fascinating and he wants to commit all of it to memory. Except for the smells, those he wishes he could block out because some of them aren't too pleasant. Sometimes he hates his sensitive nose.

But that's just a minor hitch in things. He really likes his costume, for a plus. He may be a chicken, but there's something rewarding in dressing up as something frightening for a special occasion. It also helps that he doesn't have to look at the mask or anything. If he did, he'd probably get nightmares from it.]

[renegadewreck]

[Whew. He laughs a little, a mix of nervous and relieved. Though it's really more of a giggle. Totally because of the punch he's taking another sip of now.]

Yeah. It's...not bad. [Not the best either, but not bad. He has no objections to it, really. It has alcohol in it, that's good in a place like this. Well, good and bad, depending on how drunk an individual got and how they were drunk. Wouldn't want to wander off later and get eaten by anything.]

[He glances at the glass, not quite sure how to feel about that 'punch'. Maybe it's got more punch then it should..]

You feelin' aight?... Brother? Dunno if any motherfucker should all up and trust a Strider...

[renegadewreck]

Yeah, I feel fine. Why? [After what happened a few minutes ago, he's not saying a word about the punch being spiked. Just going to casually drink it. The giggles are only the first sign of things to come. In the future there will be...okay, mostly more giggles, because Chimera's basically an adorable drunk. Who may or may not start flirting with people eventually. He's also kind of staring at those horns now, and trying not to at the same time. Basically just failing and staring anyway.]

[truculentduet]

[Because that punch smells real fucking weird, brother, that's why...]

...No reason.

[Uh, why... are you looking up? Gamzee raises an eyebrow and looks up, looking around, as if trying to figure out what the motherfuck he's looking at.]

[renegadewreck]

Alright.

[And he's giggling again. He's very easily amused right now, well, more than usual. It's quiet giggling though, at least.]

I was looking at your horns. They're very nice. [He's completely sincere. Those horns are awesome.]

[truculentduet]

..Oh.

Uh.

[Awkward side glance.]

Thanks, bro.

[renegadewreck]

Mhmm, you're welcome.

[A bright, friendly smile.]

[truculentduet]

[Awkward pause. He's just kind of staring at Chimera now with furrowed brows.]

So.
