[You know, he never was much for Halloween. That was more the kids' scene than his, and he was always too busy to really join in on anything. Sure, his candy businesses getting a boost was always nice, but he rarely participated.
Still, it was one night, and he needed to do more than sit in his boat. Especially if Magica is about; SOMEONE has to keep an eye on her. So he goes to the event and, after a quick accosting by a faire worker, comes out with the only costume he could put together that would be acceptable for him, complete with a bit of a wrap around the peg leg, just to match.
He's going to stay well, WELL away from anything remotely Christmas Carol (unless dragged toward something by someone else who doesn't know better), but surely there's enough elsewhere to keep him occupied.]
[A. Smash the Piñata] [What he IS always up for is a game of skill and luck, and all the better to get a good thwack in with it. There's a few prank options, and different reactions to each one. (1) To be fair, the peanut butter cup's effect has momentarily gone unnoticed, but now wouldn't be the time to ask him any difficult questions, would it? Of course it would. (2) Gummy worms got an... interesting mix. Scrooge will resolutely keep that hat down on his head because there certainly wasn't a pair of floofy, pointed ears that'd grown up, no sir. Less easy to hide is the prehensile, furry tail he also now had...
And (3) was possibly the most interesting one. It hadn't taken him long to figure out that the cinnamon candies caused fire, so what's a person to do with it? Put on an impromptu firebreathing show, that's what. Supplied by more candies as necessary, he goes through several different things: Igniting objects, creating multiple streams, fire-eating, and the occasional gout to singe overhead of anyone who's come close to watch. If people deign to drop coins in his hat sitting on the ground, all the better.]
[B. Food Stalls] [Scrooge is speaking to one of the stall attendants, who's giving him quite the... odd look.]
You know... [slurp- was that a tentacle supped up like a noodle..?] If you're goin' to try to prank some people with "unusual ingredients," you might want to know your audience. [He smirked, walking away with a laugh.] I've eaten far worse in my lifetime, lad! You'll havetae try harder than that!
[Still chuckling to himself, he shakes his head and keeps right on walking, continuing to dig into what he'd been served. On the surface it seemed like opaque colored gelatin, though digging through (or watching him do so) will reveal the squid that'd been cut up and distributed about. He certainly seemed to be eating it well enough, but it can't have tasted good, right...?]
[C. "Slay" Ride] [Now THIS was some fun. Scrooge can alternate as either driver- this isn't the first carriage he's ever driven, hell it's not even the fiftieh -or the defender, always quick on the smoke bombs and such to keep driving the Horseman back. In case any vines threaten, his harpoons will fly straight and true to keep them away.
Will the two of you succeed? Or will you see what happens if you lose? Only one way to find out.]
[D. Wildcard] [Have something else in mind? Hit up this prompt, or ping me at zumidotexe for plotting!]
