Second Trolling - backdated to October 31st

[saikyocivrobo]

[A jack-o-lantern is wandering through the halls of White Chalice, something glowing inside and steam emerging from its lid. And by wandering, I mean running around like crazy, jumping on obstacles and people!]

[Zabine just turned a corner inside a hall, and...is astonished]

What?!

[saikyocivrobo]

[The thing passes by him, running on the wall's railing and spreading tiny pieces of smoking pumpkin everywhere. It actually has two small, robotic white legs.]

[Zabine scampered backwards after sighting the smoking pumpkin, but moved into pursuit after it looked clear. Tryinf to get closer, he lunges forward with outstretched arms]

Here!

[saikyocivrobo]

[The pumpkin isn't very fresh, and slamming into it causes it to almost literally explode! Prometheus falls out, stunned and with a candle on his head.]

[blackguard-x2.livejournal.com]

w-what's this now?!

[saikyocivrobo]

[The tiny robot shakes off his confusion, gives Zabine a thumb up and holds out the candle towards him.]

[blackguard-x2.livejournal.com]

...what's this candle for?

[saikyocivrobo]

[Prometheus demonstrates by spinning the candle in the air, causing its flame to form brief shapes. It also sprays wax around.]

[blackguard-x2.livejournal.com]

[Zabine is first intrigued by the spinning candle, then flinches when he sees the flying wax. He's just concerned by impulse.]

Careful! That is hot! or is it?

[saikyocivrobo]

[The robot nods. What would be the point of a cold candle? He puts it on a piece of pumpkin and hands over to Zabine.]

[blackguard-x2.livejournal.com]

What's the meaning of this anyways?

[saikyocivrobo]

[Prometheus rubs his chin in thought for a moment over the question, then pretends to be a scary ghost. OOOoooOOooohhh...]

[blackguard-x2.livejournal.com]

...Some kind of game?

[saikyocivrobo]

[The robot nods, puts some of the remains of the pumpkin on his head and does his best to scare the... air around him, apparently.]

[blackguard-x2.livejournal.com]

[ Zabine was puzzled. Maybe he didn't care for Halloween, or just didn't find Promethy that intimidating. Still, the stoic ace of the Crossbone Vanguard gave up a smile -- a wry smile ]

W-Whose idea was this?

[saikyocivrobo]

[Prometheus points at himself with a thumb.]

[blackguard-x2.livejournal.com]

Intelligent machines. I've seen it all.
What other interesting things does the Chalice have on board?

[saikyocivrobo]

[Prometheus points at the candle. This! At exactly that moment its flame flickers and disappears.]

Kensuke watches the thing run by, and in an instant had his camera out and jumps to his feet.
Kensuke is surprised to find how easy it is to catch up to the runaway Jack-o-lantern, all of his training must be starting to pay off! His camera is pressed to his face as he chases after the pumpkin, filming it's wave of chaos as he goes!

[saikyocivrobo]

[The pumpkin must've noticed it's being followed, becuase it turns around after a while and starts jumping around Kensuke, like a tribal shaman dancing around a bonfire!]

[Calvina briefly wonders why how this thing showed up so early on and decides to forget why, exactly, she should think that.]

I can see the steam, Prometheus.

[saikyocivrobo]

[A small white arm emerges from the pumpkin, pressing a finger to its lips. It would say "shhh" if it could talk.]

[guardian-lynx.livejournal.com]

So are you trick-or-treating, or just trying to scare people?

[saikyocivrobo]

[The jack-o-lantern ponders that question for a while, then nods. Technically it's a viable answer.]

[guardian-lynx.livejournal.com]

Right. Try not to trick anyone too hard.

[saikyocivrobo]

[The pumpkin salutes and runs off, disappearing behind a corner. The muffled sound of an explosion can be heard from that direction soon afterwards.]
