+ Do they know it's Summerween? +

[vitaelamorte]

Probably not, but they do now!

As the Dormouse said, there's an event this weekend - trick or treat for your lives, in the middle of summer! For several days! That sounds fun and not at all exhausting or nerve-wracking for the people involved, right?

Anyway, here is how trick-or-treating will work:

• The Summerween Trickster is expecting EVERYONE to trick or treat. That means you, adults. No one is getting out of it by handing out candy.


• The closets will NOT be giving out candy. Sheesh, stop trying to cheat! You will, however, be able to get any Summerween costume you'd like from them.


• Every closed door in the mansion can be trick-or-treated at, even if it's a room that belongs to someone (get permission from the person first though). If done correctly, the door will open and a small amount of candy will be flung at you. The amount depends how many people you have with you and how good your costumes are.


• You HAVE to be in costume and you HAVE to say "Trick or Treat". If you don't, the doors will not give you candy. For the two Wonderland residents in Halloween costumes year-round, that means NEW costumes. Better costumes get you more candy and lazy costumes get you the bare minimum - one piece of loser candy. Anyone who thinks to dress up their pet gets bonus candy, but don't be surprised if the animals get sick of it after a while.


• Because it's trick OR treat, there will be some tricks in the mix. Roughly 10% of the time when your character knocks on a door, they will be met with a trick instead of a treat. Generally these things will not be harmful and will mostly just be annoying while you're trying to trick-or-treat for your life. Examples of tricks might be things that obviously aren't candy (a can of sardines, a rock, toothbrushes, etc) or pranks (stink bombs, a flock of bats, anything that might jump out and spook you) but we're mostly leaving it up to you - you guys get the idea. Everyone has an equal chance of getting tricked, no matter how good or bad their costume is.


• If the Summerween Trickster catches someone not participating, it counts as a mansion death. They'll get killed and eaten, consumed by the loser candy monster like the loser they are for not celebrating Summerween.

Alright, I think that about covers it, but there will be a FAQ as always for any other questions you guys have! And as usual this is a plot post! What are your characters dressing up as? Are they going to get in the spirit of things, or are they going to be killed for refusing to participate? Have fun, and Happy Summerween!

Dipper, Bubblegum, Beatrice

I AM SO EXCITE ok here goes

Dipper will be dressed as REDACTED with Mabel and they'll probably make an announcement of some kind because THEY KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. He'll also be taking the opportunity to get in contact with the child army he's building because MAN HE NEEDS TO TAKE DOWN THAT PORTAL. And also definitely doing some group trick or treating with any friends who want to tag along.

Beatrice is like WHAT'S A HALLOWEEN?? but Wirt's gonna explain it to her. I am not totally sure what she'll dress up as except not a bird. Probably will make Wirt help her pick.

Bubblegum is definitely gonna dress up though again idk as what yet. It'll be pretty intricate cause she does NOTHING halfway and probably something really obscure and sciencey that no one will get except the other nerds.

Beatrice and Bubblegum definitely aren't getting as much action as Dipper since it's his event, but LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT THINGS! WHOOO. SUMMERWEEN.

ADDENDUMS - DO NOT COMMENT PLS

why would you ever enlist Wirt to help you make a decision. Ever.

They might need Greg's help in the interest of not getting eaten by a candy monster before they come up with something good. :T
