Hot Potato (party log)

Who: Chloe Frazer & any and all party people!!
What: Harvest Celebrations/Halloween Party/Ruby’s Birthday/Rat Marriage/Big Communal Cooking Party so Chloe doesn't burn down her house
When: October 12
Where: At Chloe’s house on Greene Street

Content Warnings: Food descriptions, probably.
Other Notes: Feel free to make this a mingle and reply to other characters!

Chloe had wondered whether to go through with the harvest party once Lalo had disappeared, but as they say, the show must go on. There's still a lot worth celebrating, and people need something hopeful after the mess last month. Luckily her house had made it through everything all right.

The poster had said to wear a costume, so she's hoping to see a lot of those, and she’d recruited some people to help her put together the menu exactly to Lalo’s specifications, so unfortunately no one is safe from British Potatoes. There are even candles for the birthday cake.

Chloe herself is dressed as a sexy lumberjack, with one of Lalo’s old flannels tied in a knot under her breasts and denim cutoffs made from the jeans Kostya had gotten blood on (shh). She's got a fire roaring, because otherwise she’d freeze.

[ Ragnar is intrigued, if still slightly perplexed. Learning about the future is quite exhausting. ]

I should like to know what spirit would want someone to each that much cake.

Hm.

I'm not sure. I heard all of this secondhand from my friend, and she’d been ferociously drunk at the time.

There were these horrible little carved gourds too, lit with a candle.

[ his brows dip, knowing all to well the hazards of drinking too much and doing things that don't seem real the next day. it's happened to him far too many times. ]

I have learned of these evil gourd things that have warts and are deformed. Why do people wish to celebrate such frightening things?

What happened to Álfablót?

I think they're meant to frighten off evil spirits, and it seems they would be effective!

We celebrate still in our village, at least the Norse and Danes among us who follow the old ways. Our blacksmith is taking a foreign wife, and my friend went to receive her on behalf of the jarl.
