Contract 27 [Video/Action] - forward dated to after sundown

[servessithis]

[Vicente is casually walking thought the city with a pumpkin tucked under his arm. He's also dressed as the Phantom of the Opera, only he's wearing a full-face mask with only his mouth and eyes exposed, much like in the original book.]

It is quite a sight, seeing everyone dress in costumes and go about asking for candy. We have no such day in my world.

[He stops as he finds a low stone fence to put his pumpkin on and turns it so the carving is showing. After he lights the candle inside it, one can see that Vicente has carved a minotaur's head onto the pumpkin.]

I cannot say that I have ever used a pumpkin for this purpose. Nonetheless, I do enjoy taking up new things.

Ah, that is quite impressive. It's the same in my world that we have no such day.

late reply! So sorry!

[servessithis.livejournal.com]

Quite interesting, is it not? This holiday?

Np! I was late too so!

[closetpervert]

Indeed. A day for the dead. I must admit, it is a bit grim but one that's festive enough for everyone to enjoy.

[servessithis.livejournal.com]

Indeed. I do not care for sweets, but I admit, there is something of a facination with the decorations and general morbidness.

[closetpervert]

Certainly one enjoyed by the young for that reason. [He lightly laughed.]

Which I wondered, what is it you are dressed as?

[servessithis.livejournal.com]

Of course.

I am dressed as the Phantom of the Opera. Quite an enjoyable book.

[closetpervert]

Ah, a novel? Frankly, my many trips to the library has rarely involved picking up leisurely books. What is it about?

[servessithis.livejournal.com]

It is the tale of a hideous and mentally unstable man who haunts a local opera house and falls in love with a beautiful opera singer.

It was made into a musical play many years later, which I have read the script to. That version greatly romanticized the story.

[closetpervert]

I see... [Sounded like one of the stories Mirald would enjoy;;]

Do you read often?

[servessithis.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is quite the macabre little tale.

I have much free time on my hands during the day, so yes.
