This morning, our intrepid villagers awoke to a surprise of the nicer kind: A bundle of clothing left at the foot of their bed, tied with a bow. There is also a note: Put on your new outfit and join the festivities in the corn field next to the inn.

You may be thinking, what corn field next to the inn? The one that sprung up fully-mature overnight, of course.

In the middle of the field, villagers will find an autumn feast: Tables piled with harvest time food and drink, warm and rustic decorations, the day's sunshine fending off any chill in the air.

Tuck in and enjoy, villagers, but take note: Things often look different in the dark, and you might be one of them.

"Would you say being here in general is safer than that?" Ty asked innocently, before clapping John on the shoulder companionably, the free flowing alcohol making him a little bolder. Or perhaps less interested in physical boundaries.

"Look, you should have some fun. Sure we're stuck here, but it doesn't mean we have to be miserable. Have you tried any of the food?" He would have suggested alcohol, but that might be too much at once.

"That depends on your opinion of the people responsible for us being here."

Although given some of the things the Observers have thrown at them, and the fact that thus far they've managed to remain entirely out of reach definitely puts things towards the 'not terribly safe' end of the scale. Not least of all for the fact that a bear can, in theory, be killed. Which is more than can conclusively be said of the Observers thus far.

"But yes, I have."

Not since the sudden shift to things being a masquerade party, admittedly. But he can't imagine that the food would have changed any, and just at the moment he's not feeling terribly inclined to check, either.

"So far? Neutral honestly. But I'm sure that'll change once things start to hit the fan." Ty said blandly, resisting the urge to knock on wood so he didn't jinx it.

He nodded at the short answer, tempted to drift off to bother someone else since John didn't seem to be in the mood for company, but he'd give it one last try before.

"So are you always this dour at parties with free food and alcohol then? Or do you think that this is a trap and need to keep a clear head?" With how many people that had seemed untroubled by all of this, Ty hadn't been too worried. Vigilant, maybe, but as the night wore on and nothing had happened, he was more than happy to enjoy himself.
