Violet woke up from where she had fallen asleep next to the window. It was cold; she hadn't even thought to close said window. Sighing, she got up, wrapped her cloak around her (it was too cold to just walk around in a ballgown, and besides, she didn't know where to dump the cloak), and prepared to close the window.
CCCRRREEEEEAAAAAKKK...creeaaak, creeeaaak....thud.
Finally.
But where was everyone? Her stomach growled. "Come, Winter, let's look for breakfast," she said, heading toward the dining room. The cat mewed in agreement.
Upon entering, she gasped in wonder at the variety of people...including one without a head! How strange. It took her a moment to realize that she was gawking in the doorway. "Uh, h-hello, everyone! What a fine morning it is," she said nervously. Grabbing a scone, she quickly shoved it in her mouth so that she wouldn't have to say anything else. The cat stretched, spotted the Horseman, and mewed at it.
Swallowing a large chunk of scone, Violet looked behind her to notice someone else approaching in a very glittery dress. She nodded in approval at the shininess before taking another bite of her breakfast.

"Hello" said The Horseman as he waved to a new guest, one hand containing a meringue and the other and apple turnover. "The food is excellent here you know, pull up a chair and dive in" as he settled himself more comfortably and put his feet on the worn but useful footstool in front of him.
Just then he noticed something fluffy that made a noise. Looking down he saw a cat. "Oh" he said to himself. "It's that cat again, let's hope it doesn't go missing this year" he mused silently.
"Good evening" he nodded (well he bobbed his shoulders) as he noticed Violet Grape. "I hope you slept well".

What a night, what a night. Mist had hardly slept at all in this strange place; how could she, when she knew not one thing about where she was, why she was here, or how she was to get out! She straightened her dress, and reflected on the state of affairs while she re-braided her long, blonde hair. The gods surely must have had some plan in store for her. Carried out it shall be, until Valhalla appeared before her again. Strange rumors were swirling about in the air - rumors of hauntings, deaths, and mysteries.
Placing the winged helmet on her head, she smiled broadly. Eccentric and strange as it seemed, this place could really be quite nice. In fact, this could be an excellent place for mischief...
She swept gracefully down the stairs. Though she had nothing with her but the clothes on her back, her helmet, and her sword, Mist knew that she was completely capable of managing. After all, the path to Valhalla might appear before her again any time! When she reached the bottom of the stairs, she saw a host of newcomers, along with some others who had been there the previous night. It was not her custom to deal too intimately with mortals - living ones, that is - but there seemed to be quite a mix of races, sizes, and personalities. She headed over toward the group with Ea and Evening, smiling broadly in greeting.

"Um," Violet said, blinking. Her hair (died dark purple) had been straightened and nice last night, but now it was a shaggy mess. Her eyes (dark brown, but with an odd purple tint) had makeup smudged all around them. Her dress (a black, gothic-styled one, with purple accents) was crinkled and anything but elegant, and her necklace (a string of purple pearls...shaped like grapes) was askew.
She pulled out a chair and made herself comfortable, pouring a glass of grape juice. "That cat?" she asked, confused. Winter was rubbing against the Horseman's leg, the way he always did when he wanted affection. Or at least she thought it was a he... "I don't think we've met before. Have you met my cat?"

"The name is familiar to me" he replied. "But I could be mistaken, it is so much more friendly than last years cat anyway" he added as the cat rubbed itself against his leg. "Very friendlly little chap isn't he" he said with what was a smile but no one could see it.
The Horseman after finishing his meal, delicately dabbed his neck with a hankerchief and looked around at all the characters that had assembled and silently shook his.. er... yeah... and wondered if any of them would not survive this year.
With a start he told himself to buck up and not be so morbid.
[my "c" on the keyboard is stiff so if you're thinking I suddenly have a thing against using the "c" it's nothing to do with me... blame my keyboard]

"Hm, odd..." Violet picked the cat up and placed it in her lap. Well, her cousin, who had previously owned the cat, had been to a similar Halloween party...but no, that would have been to much of a coincidence.
Winter stepped onto the table, curled up next to the muffins, and began to eat. Violet only shrugged and turned back to the rest of the guests.
"So what would you do if your breakfast began to talk to you?" she asked abruptly to no one in particular.

"Indeed" said the Horseman.
"Well" he said with a chuckle. "When you can exist with no head, then nothing would really seem strange" he said. "Depending on where it had come from or what it was, I might inquire as to how life was in the bakery, or was the orchard a nice place to live" he concluded.

Nodding, Violet pulled a notebook (with a glittery grape design, of course) and a pen (purple ink, naturally) out of a pocket and quickly scribbled some notes. "Interesting." She turned back to the other guests to see if they would have any interesting answers.

"Ooh, purple" noticed The Horseman. "My favourite colour, this seasons colour as well I believe" he added.

"Really?" Violet replied, tilting her head. "I would've guessed it to be orange."

"No, no" replied The Horseman. "Definitely purple. All the fashion magazines say so" as he pulled a variety of magazines from under his cloak.

Deria detached herself from the wall by which she had spent the night quietly observing. She hadn't got any sleep at all, of course, which was unfortunate, but it was no matter. Yawning slightly, though suppressing it quickly, she sauntered into the kitchen, looking for food. Her eyes were struck by a large amount of purple adorning one of the guests, and she screwed them up for a second. She eyed her own crimson dress and had to admit it wasn't much better. She approached her and the other...headless? guest cautiously. She knew her faults very thoroughly, and they certainly included being blunt, unable to start conversations decently, and being rather antisocial. Though she had promised herself to make an effort for the next two weeks. After all, she would be here for a relatively long time.
Her hand clutching her own slim black notebook, she inclined her head slightly to the two. "Fair morn to you," she said softly as always. Tilting her head, she added, "I hope I am not intruding." As she had told herself, she was not skilled at conversation. She wondered sometimes how she could write it well, yet not perform it herself. She filed the question away for later and resumed study of the people in front of her.

"Not at all" said The Horseman as he noticed another person carrying a notebook. "We either have a lot of writers here" he said with a chuckle. "Or people just like making notes".

Kit stared meekly at the conversation between The Horseman and the Violet character and couldn't help but laugh at the sheer absurdity of it all.
[Also, Yusef was fired last year---since Ea believes that I am incapable of intelligent servants.]

Violet chuckled. "I'm a writer...I find it's nice to get candid answers to absurd questions. It helps round out my characters." She flashed a smile at the newcomer in front of her. "Good morning! Say, how is your pet daffodil doing?"

"Ah, I thought as much" he said.
The Horseman heard laughter and looked round. He looked left. He looked right. He couldn't see anyone. He looked down... way down and saw Kit (for he was standing and was very tall and she was very err.. *ahem*).
"Hello, if it isn't our gracious hostess" he said with a smile-that-was-there-but-no-one-could-see-it. "I hope you are keeping well" he asked politely.
[can he make a cameo? Please? Please? And Pliff? They could just drop in or something *bats eyes*]
