"Hey bro, no worries about the pizza." The pizza guy says happily. "It's Halloween. Tis' the season for tricks and stuff. Like just spot me some candy and we'll call it even. Got to be a lot though, because we're kind of running low of candy at the pizza parlor and it's a surprisingly popular spot for vampires since that whole "fight against a bunch of blood puppets" thing happened. All they do is order pasta though...but yeah, just hit me with some candy and we'll call it even. I'll even let you keep the 'zas!"

"No thank you." You reach for your wallet. "I'll have to put it on my card, but I can afford some pizzas."

The pizza guy looks at you strangely. "Really bro? Like, you'd seriously rather pay for all these pizzas than just fork over some candy?"

"Believe it or not my holiday candies are very important to me."

You notice the autumn wind suddenly stop blowing against your skin as you fish out your card from your wallet.

You look up and see the pizza guy frozen like a statue.

A tall catwoman looms over you, hands on her hips.

"And just what do you think you're doing?" She asks with regal disdain.

"About to pay for pizzas someone ordered."

"Oh poo. And you were being such a good sport about all this..."

"I have, haven't I? I could have ratted you out twice."

"No getting out of this." The cat goddess wags her finger in your face. "You're supposed to give up one of your treats! That's the rules!"

"According to who?"

"According to Bast, goddess of cats, that's who!"

>Say/Do?

"You know that its Trick OR Treat, not Trick AND Treat right? Still this is what I get for feeding a stray, no matter how pretty she is."

"A stray? Hmph!" Bast turns up her pretty nose at you. "Well...you are right about me being pretty..."

"You know the invisible woman is looking for you..."

"Who?"

"You know..." You wave your hand around your head.

"Ohhhh...yes, she would be out to spoil my fun."

"And the cops."

"Naturally."

"And Anubis."

Bast sticks her tongue out. "He's just mad that I make a better Anubis that he does!"

You hand Bast all your cider. "Here then. My libation to the goddess. I'm going to pay for your pizzas anyway. Because its the right thing to do."

"Are you trying to guilt trip me? A goddess? A CAT goddess?"

"Are you saying you're selfish?"

"No...I am stern. But I am a fair goddess. Merciful to! The night is almost over, and you've been fabulous sport...I mean, a fabulous sport about this all. I mighttttt have a treat for you."

"A treat or a trick?"

Bast flashes a mischievous cat smile. "You'll just have to find out..."

With a wave of her long tail the goddess vanishes and the pizza guy resumes slouching against his pizzamobile.

You hand your card to the pizzaguy."Put it all on the card with a very generous tip to get your parlor some treats."

"Wow! Thanks mister! This'll totally buy a lot of laffy taffy! Vampires love laffy taffy! Merry Chri...I mean Happy Halloween!"

This time you don't have to open the door.

The door just flies open.

A man with a fedora and trenchcoat walks in followed by what looks like himself carved out of solid shadow.

"Hey Anonssssss, are you sure this is legal barging in like this? AHAHAHAHAHHHHAAA!" A floating, cackling, electrically blow woman dressed as a pirate floats into your house.

"We're private eyes. Don't worry man. We're professionals." The shadowy guy says while his more tangible counterpart waves around some kind of glowing stick.

"Halloween is historically a night of high ectoplasmic activity." The shadowy guy says. "VALIS, gods, ghosts, everyone gets shaken up and aroused."

"Hehehehe...you said aroused..." The blue pirate ghost chuckles.

"We think your house might be...infected." The more human looking guy says.

"Hey don't worry stranger!" The blue ghost with a mile long smile says. "We're going to make everythingggggg right! And if not, there's always insurance! AHAHHHAAAHAHHHAAAH!"

Damn. You had a chance to get that decent haunting insurance last month but nooooo you had to pick the kaiju one.

The fleshy dude in the fedora moves the strange glowing stick over you stack of treats...

...it begins to make a PING PING PING sound...

"Uh guys..." You ask. "...That sound means something good, right?"

The trio shake their heads at you.

Your precious inventory begins to rise into the air and float around. Your heart skips a beat as candy corn and choco nanas and hot caramel toss and slosh in midair and prepare to rain down on your floor...

"Gotcha!"

In a flash a cloud of blue energy with a pirate hat and a smile catches your candies in midair and suspends them.

You breathe a sign of relief.

"Don't worry mister!" The happy blue cloud says. "We won't let your candies get crushed! AHAHAHAHHHHAAAAHHHAAA!"

"Sooooo...my candy is possessed?" You ask.

"Looks that way." The two guys say at once.

"Looks like your candy just isn't very...sweet. AHAHAHAHAHHAAAA!"

"Don't mind her." The shadowy guy says. "She's always like this."

You shrug. "Hey. Would you believe this isn't the weirdest thing that's happened to me tonight?"

"Tis the season." The fleshy guy says.

"So...what's the next step here?" You ask. "Do we call a priest?"

"We'll de ghost your candy, don't worry." The shadowy one says. "It would help if you could tell us more about the uh, weird things that have happened to you tonight. Might help us get a handle on the situation."

Oh crap!

A third chance to rat out Bast!

Is this...part of her game? Are cat spirits toying with your candies? But maybe...could this be the work of that gang of ghosts led by that wolfgirl earlier? Are they back for revenge? Is this some new holiday threat?

You got a lotttt of questions.But right now the big one is...

>Yeah, we need to take away your candy.

They could be using their jobs for taking the candies away under the guise of an "investigation", but it really depends if they actually intend to take them. Be observant for any ulterior motives.

You aren't going to talk about Bast. You're not going to talk about Bast at all, in fact you're going to leave her out of this.

But you go over all the many, many MANY oddities that have befallen your candy distribution this Hallow's eve.

The trio listen to every word, and the two guys that look eerily like one another jot down notes.

"Do you think the candy could have been possessed by accident from the ghost restocking agency?" You ask.

"Hmm...it is a possibility." The shadowy guy muses.

"But only one of many possibilities." His fleshy counterpart adds.

"I agree." His shadowy double concurs.

"So...are you two like...what exactly?" You ask.

"Long story." The fleshy one says. "But to make it short...I guess you could say that fellow is my shadow."

The trio erupt into laughter that you awkwardly add to.

That...didn't actually answer your question, but whatever.

"I've been handing out candy all night...is that going to be a problem?" You ask.

"Oh not at all." The floating blue cloud says. "The possession is very passive and we're going to do a whole sweep of the city anyway, so we'll catch any possessed candy you happened to have handed out. After last Halloween you can't be too careful!"

"Oh yeah. That was that big fight at Castle Dracula right?"

"Among other things!"

"Oh, and by the way...those twizzlers that are kind of writhing next to your...I guess that corner would correspond to your left ear...those are the hizzlers I told you about. They might not be possessed."

"Hmm..." You don't really pay attention to which detective guy speaks. They both sound kind of the same, and its far more interesting to watch the floating cloud lady with all your treats swimming inside her. "...It's going to be hard to tell if those hizzlers are possesed or not if they're already capable of ectoplasmicaly based motion...I guess we're just going to have to..."

"...we'll have to break down a portion of them into ectoplasma particles and use those particles to scans the rest of your candy stash to isolate the possession."

You blink.

"Uh...break down?"

A glowing blue blender appears next to the cloud and gobbles up several of your hisslers.

With a whirring sound that sounds like someone saying "whirrrrrrrr" a chunk of your hisslers are pulped into a red goo.

Hisslers are now at ALMOST OUT.

"...You guys couldn't have done that with the reeses cups? I have a lot of them. A LOT."

"Never try to break down Frankenteen tech." The blender burbles. "It's only stable when its...stitched together. AHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

"And we needed something already with an ecto base to use as a contrast to the pollutant." One of the guys explains. "Also...we're going to have to confiscate that molecular rearranger." He points to the briefcase like object that makes the legally distinct peanut butter cups floating above you in the blue cloud.

"Really? Come on!"

"It's a dangerous sort of device." He shrugs. "I'm not even sure if you can legally have it anyway."

"You can't just like, scan it? Wasn't that why you hashed my hisslers?"

"We'll scan the rest of your stash with the resultant particles Phanty broke down."

"Who?"

"Phanty." He points to the cloud and blender. "Our spook sleuth."

"AHAHAHHHAAAHHHAAA!"

"But we simply can't take the risk of whatever might be possessing that matter rearanger using it's ectogenerator...thingamajig...to confuse any particle scan. We'll have to take it to a shop and break it down and make sure its clean. You can have it back by...Christmas probably. No later than New Years, promise!"

"Oh come on guys! Please? Is there anything you can do?"

"Well...."

"Well...we could try and use an inverse fractal model program to...but naw, sorry dude. We got to take your peanut butter cup machine."

Darn the luck!

You are OUT of peanut butter cups!

"Well. I hope you guys don't mind me not offering you any candy. Because I think the three of you have gone well over the "1 per trick or treater" rule." You say.

"Don't worry guy!" Phanty says. "I'll just spray this processed hissler twizzler bizzler gunk over the rest of your stuff and see what pings! It can't be that all of your candy is infected right?"

You jerk a thumb to your stack of pizzas as a spray of red...taffy? Can you call hisslers taffy? gummy maybe? Twizzler material. Red twizzler material sprays over your candy stash.

"You guys might as well have some pizza. I mean if you're going to eat me out of house and home start with the pizza, I got a lot of it."

"Thanks for the pizza stranger!" The two detectives go for your St. Florian's Papalroni while their ghostly blue sidekick sprays hizzler gunk like pesticide over your treats.

"Well...I'm glad you like it." You say. You can't be too cross at them. After all, they're only doing their job as...what are they exactly? Private eyes? Paranormal investigators? Ah screw it, just call them superheros. The term was practically invented for any kind of weirdo that bothers other people.

"Hey guys!" The blue ghost girl shouts. "Looky! We got something!" A cartoony blue hand points to an are in the cloud where vicious, snarling mouths full of fangs attached to no faces materialize out of the hizzler gunk.

"Woah...I don't think this is the work of those candy hooligans..." And silently you to yourself "or Bast".

"Stand back normie!" One of the detectives says. "We'll handle this!"

"Is it really possible for so much unconnected nonsense to happen to the same guy in one night?" You ask in disbelief.

"Hey man, it's Halloween. Nothing is unconnected on Halloween." The fleshy detective says.

"Alright other me! Let's bust these B class spirits of greed and trickery!" The shadowy one shouts.

Their ghost girl divides her cloud form into blue prisons around each hungry mouth. From the fleshy one's hand a bolt of white light streams forth. From his dark counterpart, a bolt of darkness.

"Guys...guys! Watch the candy! Please!"

When the light and darkness clear you find...most of your stash gently lowered to the floor on a blue cloud that forms into a girl ghost with a grin and pirate hat. "Well don't you go and boo hoo hoo! That wasn't so bad, was it? AHAHAHAHHHHAAAA!"

"...So uh...thanks for the pizza." The fleshy detective tips his fedora at you, and you see its got some strange metal stuff inside it...

Whatever. The night's too strange to sweat the little strangeness.

"And don't worry about the door stranger!" The blue ghost says transforming her hands into tools. "I'll have it fixed up to you in a second!"

In a cloud of cartoony motion she fixes your door and even places a wooden "Happy Halloween!" sign on the front...that came from somewhere.

"Happy Halloween stranger!" She says as she transforms herself into, of all the ridiculous things, a retro muscle car that her detective friends climb into. "Remember to contact Anon and Anon and Phanty and Carlyle for all your ghost, spook, and spirit complications. We're ready to believe you! AHAAHHHAAAAAAaaaaa!" Her laugh trails off as the car speeds into the distance.

Well that could have been worse.

Another knock at your door, but the first knock at your new door. When will it end? So many tick or treaters! You're experiencing a supernaturally large amount of trick or treaters!

You open the door to find a man dressed like a 17th century baron complete with riding boats and a large coat. There's a band of strange looking...hilts? vials? well whatever it is he's got around himself is strange. Are they supposed to be part of his costume?

"Salutations!" The man says moving aside to reveal a bunch of chaperoned children dressed in Star Trek uniforms.

"Trick or Treat!" They chorus.

"Ohhhh..." You say, finally getting it. "Trelane!"

"Couldn't be Captain Kirk." He says. "We already have several of those."

A green smear of light appears above his head. "Now Trelane, don't dawdle. We still have the rest of the block to cover and it's getting late!" It says in a melodius, angelic voice.

"Hey cool!" You compliment. "How are you doing that?"

"Oh I'm not doing it. It's my...helper."

"Another ghost eh? I've had more than a few ghosts tonight."

"I guess you could call her a...spirit." He says. "Anyway, make with the candy!"

"Trelane..." The green light says in a rebuking tone that makes the children laugh.

"Okay okay...make with the candy please?"

“Well don’t keep us waiting!” Trelane says. “Make with the comestibles my good man!”

You open the door to reveal a crowd of vampires.

Real ones.

A vampire chick with long purple hair and a red dress steps forward. You've seen her on the news before. She's Sibella Dracula, current head of the House of Dracula."Oh what a night!" She says. "And look at you still having your porch light on and it's almost midnight! You must take your holidays seriously!"

Yes you do.

"I'm just showing my relatives around Coolsville and we heard from a few friends of ours that you're pretty good for candy. So uh, trick or treat?"

Relatives? What, all of them? You're facing down an enormous crowd of bloodsuckers. They crowd your lawn like an overflowing Spirit Halloween warehouse.

No wait. Can you say bloodsuckers? Is that like...a slur? You know some werewolves get touchy about humans calling them "pups" but...

Focus! This might be the grand finale!

Atleast you hope it is...

Offer Sibella some hisslers, and give the rest to the other vampires if there's still any left.

Otherwise, offer them cider, caramel, choco nanas, or candy corn bullets. Each of these are arranged in the order of which they run out. If you run out of cider, offer them caramel, etc.

If all else fails, offer them pizza.

>Say
"Halloween doesn't seem to be as nearly as celebrated as it used to be. I'm just trying to keep the Halloween spirit alive, even if it means handing out a bunch of candy to some random kids until midnight.

"Wait, aren't you Sibella Dracula? Geez, I seem to be keep meeting everyone under the sun-- err, moon tonight. You're not just someone wearing a really convincing costume, right?"

You take deep breathe. "Single file please."

The vampires slink into a line wit supernatural grace like a line of oozing shadows.

"I'm a little low on supplies everybody. But I'll do my best to try and give everyone something. If I run out of candy I hope you can accept one of these many, many complimentary pizzas I got from Lucky's Parlor tonight. It was uh...bestowed upon me tonight."

"Garlic?" Sibella asks.

"It's St. Florian's Papalroni."

"Ah! One of the garlic free pizzas! Perfect!"

You offer a hizzler to the purple skin girl. You want to make sure the vampire princess is taken care of.

"Oh!" She happily clasps her hands together. "A hissler! Just like what Tanis would make! Thank you!"

She knows the invisible woman? Small world...

So, just an observation, but why do we add modifiers to our rolls if they are gonna still be displayed with the modifier instead of the total sum

I mean, rolling 1d6+2 and getting 3 displays "3 + 2" instead of "5"
>>
>>3140157
yay she liked the hissler!
>>3140318
we don't get to choose how it's displayed, we just use the system
>>
>>3140388
What i mean is, what's the point? It is not like it makes the QM work any easier, he still has to do the math
>>
>>3140391
I guess it’s to let us know how bad we do when we add our own modifier
>>
>>3140391
It looks cooler and less boring.
And sometimes it serves as excuse to not take a bad roll when the bad roller forgot the modifier.

Writhing hisslers! Bubbling caramel! Fruity bananas covered in chocolate! Hot cider!

Candy! Candy! Candy! You dole it out to the vampiric hordes of Sibella (and they're very thankful!).

"Fangtastic job candy guy!" Sibella says. "It's so hard to find guys with as much holiday spirit as you. But you pull it off! I'll be sure to bring my folks by here every year!"

Note to self: Buy more candy for next year. A lotttt more candy.

"Let's show the man some appreciation and leave in style!" Sibella addresses her house. They line upon you law and adjust their (rather anachronistic, but you supposed that's the style of a culture of immortals) clothing as if preparing for something.

"Ready everybody? A one, a two, a three!"

In an instant, the vampires dissolve into floating mist or take to the air as a flock of shrieking bats. A few turn into large, monsterous humanoids with leathery wings and powerful talons.

Hey, someone's got to carry all their candy!

What a show! You close your door feeling satisfied and return to the Halloween marathon on television. Halloween is on...the movie that is. The seventies one.

As the AM hours begin to tick away and the first rays of sunlight peek through your window, you wonder if its over. Did you make? Did you master the holiday?

Shouldn't a certain cat goddess show up to give you your reward? Or was she just making a fool of you this whole time...

The doorbell rings.

Of course.

One final scare.

You ready your collection of treats for one final visitor. This has to be the last one, right? It's perfectly arguable now that it isn't even Halloween anymore.

It all comes down to this.

You open the door..

>Roll the last 3D20!

You open the door...

"BOO!"

You nearly drop your treats all over the patio.

A giggling red sheet of a ghost is pulled away by other ghosts that look like smears of bright techicolor.

"Starwberry!" The electric blue one says. "You nearly made him drop his candy!"

"Sorry. Sorry Blueberry. It just seemed a little too late to say trick or treat. The sun's already coming up!"

"You could have just said hi..." Blueberry ghost said.

"Oh. Ghosts!" You say. "Well, Happy Halloween! I wasn't anticipating trick or treaters this late...or early. But you're welcome to whatever you want from my treats."

"Thanks!" A sweet voice says.

You look around for another ghost hovering in the air before turning your gaze lower to find a winsome werewolf girl with white fur and hair wearing...antlers?

"Ah. Dressing up as a...reindeer?" You guess.

"I...suppose you could say that..."

"Ah. Halloween and Christmas all in one."

"I do like holidays." She says. "I'm...not from around here, so the idea of special days fascinates me in general!"

"And you guys are..."

"Ice cream ghosts!"

"Of course! Blueberry, chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry! I get it!"

The short white werewolf wags her tail like a pup as she accepts a very generous chunk of your candy stores.

"What are you guys doing out so late?" You ask.

"I was teaching my ghost friends here how to prowl." The werewolf explains. "They ran into a bit of trouble last year, so I decided to take them around the town smartly and safely like a werewolf would prowl."

"It was lots of fun!" Blueberry says. "We went up on buildings, and out to the sticks with the pumpkin patches and weird abandoned things by the side of the road, and went to a ghost party at a corn maze, and since we saw your light was still on well, we figured we'd try and get in some last minute trick or treat!"

"Sounds like you Halloween was almost as eventful as my own!" You say passing out a very generous share of your candy stores to the last trick or treaters.

"Happy Halloween!" You wave goodbye.

"Happy Hallloween!" They return your wave.

Back inside, back on the couch, you let yourself fall over the couch.

It's finally over...but where is Bast?

>turn off the porch light
>look around you expectantly
Well, I’ve survived Halloween, and all it’s tricks. Any chance I can get a treat?
Maybe watch a movie with me while we share some pizza?
>>
>>3151789
You shut off the porch light, snuff the jack o lantern candle, and hit the couch to watch slasher movies until you pass out.

"Welll..I've done it. I've survived Halloween and all its tricks, natural or otherwise...I don't suppose it's time for some treats? Ya know, to balance the whole thing?"

Theres a moment of silence, and then you hear the microwave turn on in the kitchen. You look and find that a bag of popcorn is cooking. When you return to the couch you find a certain goddess of cats draped over the back of your couch.

"Hmmmm..." She purrs. "Yeah, I suppose I can grace yourself with my presence."

"That's all? That's the treat?"

"Feh! Properly, you should summon my divine personage through diligent observations and rituals! But since you were a good sport, and handled my fun with grace..."

"...You show up, eat my popcorn, and get hair on the couch?"

"Yes! Won't it be fun?"

You shrug. And inwardly smile. "Well. Let's see."

"And I have the perfect movie we can watch Mr. Candyman!" Bast nuzzles her head on your shoulder.

"...Candyman?"

"The Cenotaph Slayer!"

FIN!
