Samhain in the Wylds!

Samhain in the Wylds!

Our Samhain Ball was a smashing success!

I don’t have a lot to say about it, except what I’ve already said about Drysi and that ridiculous bunch of Sidhe noble boys who got their comeuppance fairly quickly at Arahaelon’s hand, but here are some photographs in case you want to know how some of us looked on the night!

Dyisi, Wren and I decorated the ballroom OOCly a few days before the party. There was much laughter, particularly since I had to admit to both of them that I love Samhain, but not Halloween so much, and I don’t like blood and gore, so there were many jokes about what I would and would not have in the ballroom on the night. And just don’t talk to me about tombstones.

Dyisi and Kern. Kern argued that he already is a Samhain/Halloween creature, so he came as himself. We couldn't even get him to put a mask on. — Dyisi and Kern. Kern argued that he already is a Samhain/Halloween creature, so he came as himself. We couldn’t even get him to put a mask on.

And finally a shot of Dyisi and Gwyneth. Dy was in human form for reasons I won't go in to because it would take so long, but whoa! was she tall! — And finally a shot of Dyisi and Gwyneth. Dy was in human form for reasons I won’t go in to because it would take so long, but whoa! was she tall!
