If I had more than 2 thumbs I would use them all but as it is I only have two thumbs to put up for the event tonight!
Everyone!

Re: Everyone!
Seriously, can't thank you all enough for showing up. After the Avarine party bust I knew I had to make it up to everyone so hopefully this was a fair enough replacement party. Thank you DMs for your provision of wings and treats, for the amazing work yall did with the skit, and for those touching moments yall provided that nearly had me misty eyed. Maddy was an unexpected treat and I thank yall from the bottom of me and Vincent's heart for that moment.
MAJOR thanks goes to all the players who participated, it wouldn't have been a party without yall and the music and stories and interactions were just top notch. Beautiful work as always from everyone.
For everyone who couldn't make it or showed up late, here's the script I'd submitted to to the team for the orphanage kids to put on. My friend who wrote this asked my to only give her pen name, Lela Magdalene. Hopefully everyone who did see it enjoyed it, maybe an IG book might start to circulate....
Characters: Narrator (N). Adorable Child (AC), Serious Child (SC), Child (C), Pumpkin Thief (PT)
Enter Narrator who stands off on the side of the stage
N: 'Twas All Soul's Eve, and all through Nuvar,
the children were troubled by something bizarre.
The pumpkins, it seems, as they all looked around,
had all disappeared and there were none to be be found.
Enter all children
AC:Where could all the pumpkins be?
C: What did they do, walk away or something?
SC: That is a ridiculous suggestion. Pumpkins cannot walk.
AC: *sighs dramatically* The things I have to put up with. Come on, we have to find them or our All Soul's Eve party will be ruined!
Exit children
N: So off went the children, they looked up and looked down,
but pumpkins were missing from all over town.
But there was one person, who looked mean and scary,
sneaking away with a big bag to carry
Enter Pumpkin Thief
PT: Those pesky children and their fancy party. Bah snakesbelly! I'll show them, can't have a party with no pumpkins. They'll never find me in my home: With leaves and trees and a hive of bees. Now if only those pesky trick-o-treaters would learn to flee. *walks off, small pumpkins falling out of a hole in his bag*
Exit Pumpkin Thief
N: The Pumpkin Thief of Nuvar, as he was soon known,
slipped off to his hiding spot, his overgrown home.
Meanwhile the children were giving up hope,
they had been looking for hours and were starting to mope.
Enter children
C: We'll never find them! We've looked everywhere!
AC: They have to be somewhere, they just have to be.
SC: Technically on an island this big, we could never find them.
AC: *turns to SC, but then sees one of the pumpkins on the ground* Wait, look at that! It's a trail. Come on, let's follow it.
C: I have a bad feeling about this.
Exit children
N: The children all ran, following his trail,
to make sure the Pumpkin Thief's plan would fail.
The thief himself, was not aware,
that his small bag had gotten a tear
PT: Bah, snakebelly! This is hard work, but it will be worth it to not see those pesky kids having fun at their party. *peers off in the distance* Wait, what's that? Those pesky kids are headed this way! I better hide, and fast. *hides behind...something, but not very well*
Enter PT
N: The children were now right at the door,
picking up lost pumpkins and looking for more.
It was now only minutes before
the Pumpkin Thief couldn't hide anymore
Enter children
AC: Look! There are more pumpkins! Hurry!
C: But this is the scarey man's house!
SC: Breaking and entering is a criminal act.
AC: Oh be quiet, we won't be in here long. Just to get the pumpkins back, and then we'll leave. The rest of the pumpkins have to be around here somewhere.
PT emerges from his hiding spot, blocking the children's escape route
PT: Well, well, well, what do we have here? Bah, snakebelly! You should not be in my house!
C: Please don't hurt us!
AC: Give us back our pumpkins!
PT: No! They are mine now!
SC: Stealing is against the law.
AC: But we can't have our party without them!
PT: Exactly! Every year you kids drive me crazy with your annoying party, while I have to listen. Bah, snakebelly! I won't give them to you!
AC: I have an idea *motions for the other children to come closer* I think we should make a deal with him.
SC: I suggest sitting down to negotiate a trade agreement (NOTE: should be reading off his hand, stuttering, or something along those lines)
AC and C just stare at SC for a moment
C: How about we just leave?
AC: Never mind, just let me handle this. *turns back to PT and smiles sweetly* Would you like to come to our party?
Everyone stares at AC in shock
PT: ...You want me to come to your party?
AC: *nods* But you have to give the pumpkins back.
PT hesitates
PT: I've never been to an All Soul's Eve party before.
AC:It'll be fun. Come on. I'm Sara, by the way and these are my friends Eric *points to SC* and Lindsay *points to C*
PT: *smiles nervously* I'm Sheldon
AC: Well Sheldon, let's get going! Don't want to be late for the party. Everybody grab a pumpkin and let's hurry!
Children grab pumpkins and run off stage
PT: *in amazement* I'm going to a party....*looks around* Hey! Wait for me!
Exit PT
N: And that was the party that almost was not,
but thanks to those kids, the pumpkin thief was caught.
Sara and Eric and Lindsay saved the day,
so now everybody can party away!
Exit N

Re: Everyone!
I just have to RAVE how CREATIVE you all are! The ideas ya'll have come up with for each other's HollyDay presents are FANTASTIC!! What amazes me is that they are each so incrediably different and unique! It is really clear to me you all know the character behind who you play as well as the character you chose to give a gift too. Reading each PM has been like being given a little HollyDay present or being able to participate in everyone's Christmas all at the same time 8) Well done Everyone!
