[Spicy!π₯] Author's Choice: βCostume Calamityβ (Reese & Jane Version)
Added 2023-10-26 12:40:00 +0000 UTC
[Alternate Text: A header image of a room in an abandoned asylum. The paint is peeling to reveal old stone walls, and the window's frame is likewise decaying; it's mostly shades of beige and green with a time-worn quality to everything. The focal point of the image is a rolling bed with thin padding that has a bedside tray set off to the side. There is an empty eeriness present.]

Mrs. Dorran's creativity has transformed the B&B into a set from a classic horror movie.
Jane trudges through the packed hallways with a resolute determination not to spill a single drop of chilled apple cider. She keeps her elbows bent, arms raised at chest level while balancing three skull-shaped goblets. Each of her solid steps is matched by a pulsing beat. It's seeping through the spiderweb coated walls, low bass faintly quaking through her in a way that's both mildly disorienting and energizing.
She nearly nods at a skeleton after it politely waves 'hello' until she detects that it's a propβ¦
The grim reaper waves again when Jane skirts past it because the decorations aren't giving her as wide a berth as the party goers.

Ooh, that loss of coherency means my and R's mission was accomplished quite spectacularly, so thank you! ππ₯° That detail that's shared between Joshua and R is a great one--the need to pull J closer so they know they're wanted. It's a minor trend with them that the MC can soothe/change, but yes, J lives for that grabbing and being close even if they're not always the one to initiate it first. π₯Ί I like how that detail resonates with Joshua. The fact that it's something he would naturally do makes me smile because J normally would cave for him. XD This is actually a unique circumstance where it fails. (Yes, J tends to spoil the MC; it's what they deserve. π) I'm so glad that you enjoyed the different parts/touches in this, especially that devious underwear snap, hehe. (I'm certain J wouldn't say 'no' to spending some alone time to Josh, although R's impatience could lead to their hat yet again coming in handy until they could sit together in the car. J would make it up to him, dw, possibly sooner than anyone might think.) (R would be possessive yet proud of their tangible effect. >:D)

(lol hit enter way too soon :\) I love how Reese grabs Jane's hip so she scoots closer and then Josh does the same thing, putting his hands on her waist to encourage her to move closer. πGrab your girl. PLUS, when the returning visitor says "Jane" sweetly and asks if it's scary - I swear this was written for Josh - this is exactly how I picture him acting in this scenario. He likes being scared (movies, books, haunted houses), but only with warning beforehand. Everything else is chef's kiss - Jane grabbing Josh's wrist (betrayal!!!), Reese snapping Josh's underwear (BRO???) and Josh's disheveled state by the end. (NSFW-ish here - Josh and Jane might need to stay in the closet for a bit. Er, if Reese doesn't want the partygoers to look at Josh's hot pirate outfit, he definitely wouldn't want the citizens to see the bulge in Josh's pants)
