"A Spooktacular Party Idea !"

I was always excited during Halloween season. This was the time of year I could absolutely share my adoration for my favorite occult creatures: The Vampire & the Werewolf.  The bloodsuckers & the lycanthropes... I had a interesting idea, but I needed to approach the appropriate people & get them to agree. Hopefully. They'll all agree, right ?

I first approached my sweet grandmother, "Grand-mère, je peux t'expliquer quelque chose ? J'ai une idée pour Halloween." (Grams, can I run something by you ? I have an idea for Halloween.) My grandmother smiled at me as she sat a slice of apple pie in front of me. She quite enjoyed baking & I often loved helping her in the kitchen. I am probably just as interested in baking as my grandmother was. 

"What is it, Azumi ?", my grandmother asked as she took a seat across from me at our dining table. "I want to have a party here essentially. Turn our home into a museum of the occult for Halloween..." My grandmother laughed as she gently patted my hand, "Tu n'avais aucune raison d'être nerveux. Je sais que la saison d'Halloween est ta période préférée de l'année, Azumi. Vous pouvez organiser cette fête tant que vous vous y préparez de façon responsable." (You had no reason to be nervous. I know Halloween season is your favorite time of the year, Azumi. You may have this party as long as you prepare for it responsibly.)

I thanked my grandmother before going off to see a few other people. My first stop was to see a group of seven. I knocked on their door before calling out to them, "Guys ? Are you home ?" I waited for a bit when suddenly Shion rested a hand on my shoulder, "왜 여기서 눈에 띄시나요?" (Why are you standing out here ?) 

I, of course, screamed but Shion simply seemed happy he managed to get in a good scare. "I need to speak with all of you ? Where Solon ? Heli ? Jakah ?" Shion led me inside as the others seemed to be milling about their home. Noa was the first to greet me with a hug as I greeted the others. 

"파티를 도와달라고요? 어떻게 해야 하나요?" (You want us to help out with your party ? What do we need to do ?), Heli was the first to seemingly know exactly what I was thinking. I have no idea how he does that. I smile as I tell them my idea. "I plan on making my home into a Halloween styled museum. I was wondering if you'd be vampires for my museum & I could put photos of you up."

Silence. They all shared looked & seemed to communicate with their eyes or body language. I was absolutely nervous. How did they communicate in such a way ? The quietness went on for a few more moments before Jaan answered. "We agree. It would be fun to help with your Halloween party." I cheered in excitement as I thanked them all before going on my way. I had one more stop to go. 

"Azumi !", Tahel, Ruslan, Luka, & Louis yelled as they tackled me in a hug. Mahan helped me up after briefly scolding the younger boys. Enzy & Najak leading them off after briefly hugging me. "What brings you by ?", Camill asked as they helped get some grass out of my hair. The boys must have been having fun in their backyard. So I gave them the rundown of what I wanted to do for my party. 

Most were happy to agree, but ultimately the decision fell on Khan. Khan had the final say. I knocked on Khan' door as he was a little more isolated. "入ってもいいですよ、アズミさん···"(You may come in, Azumi...) I entered slowly as I sat with him. He looked tired, but had a determination in his eyes I have only seen a handful of times. I get the feeling he seems very responsible over the other boys...

"I had a Halloween party idea. The others agreed, but they said I should ask you." I had told him the idea & managed to get a small smile out of Khan. "So is that a yes ? Will you guys help out with the party ?" Khan playfully nudged my shoulder with his own, "はい。私たちがお手伝いしますよ、アズミさん。 私たちを頼りにしてもいいです。" (Yes. We'll help you, Azumi. You can count on us.)

I thanked him before heading home. I went to my room to brainstorm what decorations I want for the party & what to serve at the party...
