The Introduction
"Ok," said the counselor to the Hecate cabin to the large mass of the others. "I have created an idea that will––I believe––bring back the friendly competition to the camp."
"Which is?" The counselor of the Hypnos cabin yawned. "Because if it's an idea that isn't so good, you woke me up from a really good nap for nothing. And I need my sleep."
"I was thinking that we could do a costume contest, like in Halloween." She pointed to a whiteboard with her plans drawn out. Her handwriting small, but easy to read. A level of organization that's higher than an Aphrodite camper whose particular about their nail color shades. "I got it from the Gravity Falls episode called 'summerween' where it's Halloween during the summer." Looking at Annabeth to solidify her idea, she continues by explaining her idea further. "I've planned out when the contest can happen, how it will happen. And like how we can work this into our schedules;cause like, i was thinking that we could do a minor-god counselors vs. major-god counselors and a regular single person and groups and stuff. "
"So, whadd'ya think?" She fidgeted with the hem of her shirt. A couple hours every night for the past week would be lost for nothing. She really wanted to do Summerween because she wanted to go and hang around her friends on the day of free candy for years, but can't. They live across the country and only see each other during the summer and through IMs.
"I like it. I wouldn't mind beating your asses in a costume contest." Percy says fingers interlocked with Annabeth as she contemplates the idea. The last Halloween he's had that wasn't weird or monster-thriving was when he was eleven when he and a couple others sneaked out and trick-or-treating in a neighboring neighborhood. And he misses the childish nature of the holiday. Playing dress up without getting into trouble, receiving candy and prizes for walking around with crappy dollar-store costumes. "I wanna see if us major-god children can beat you guys' in a simple costume contest."
Everyone agreed and were please with the idea. Each of them excited for the day where they see their friends and family dressed like children walking around at night for a reminiscence from the past.
《ーOーOー》
"Alright guys, what're we going to do?" Leo looked to the other twelve––hades included––councelors. "I was thinking we cold do like a dark, evil version of our parent."
"Not bad, not bad," Will solace built on his friends idea. "But I think we could do better. Like...like a creepy and bloody version."
"What do you have in mind?" Annabeth asked.
"For instance, Leo could do a look where he's like...half burnt or something? Piper could have love arrows coming out of her, Percy could have a hook through his cheek." He motions to each of the listed people. "Something like that, cause it's still Halloween, right?"
"Will it be too much?" Jason looked through inspiration images off google. "Ya know, for the little ones?"
"Maybe, but hey, if they're here they must be some kind of traumatized, right?" Piper said. She bought out a art pad, pages and pages filled with designs and makeup ideas. Colors vibrant and beautiful strokes decorated every space of every page. And one section in the back was specific for FX makeup. "I already have concept art for us all, but I don't know if you'll like it."
Thalia looked over the Aphrodite daughters shoulders, she was impressed with how well the colors matched and complemented each other nicely. "Woah...Pipes, this is so cool."
"If we need to, we can have everything stay in my cabin or Jason's, no-one goes in there except us and everyone would be too scared to go in." Percy stuffed goldfish in his mouth. He had some experience in the makeup department, helping girl for dances in schools, doing his own halloween makeup, etc. Doing FX shouldn't be that hard, right?
In just a few hours, they had everything planned out perfectly. Which counselors would do what kind of look and how they could help in the months time they had. And since it was major vs. minor, the Aphrodite cabin was more than happy to help their counselor gore-ify the other counselors.
