    Artisticpaw padded throughout the camp silently, eyes and ears open for the swagmaster. The cinnamon apprentice hoped to talk to Alphadog about the Halloween event he had organized.

    "Uh... Hello, Alphadog," Art greeted with a dip of her head. "I was hoping to try out to be one of the Scarries in your Halloween event, if this is an appropriate time to do so."

    "Cool! What skills do you have that you think are good for this job?"

    She'd figured he'd ask a question like this. She had her answer ready in case he did since he announced the try-outs. The she-cat took a quick breath before launching in to her explanation. "As you may know, the key to giving someone a good fright is all based on the element of surprise. For example, you can't scare someone if they know it's coming, right? To know who is not expecting it, you have to be good at figuring out someone's emotions. I've been reading others' emotions since I was a kit, by watching the way they move - like the way their ears are pricked. Mainly, though, looking into their eyes. Eyes are like a passage to one's feelings, in my book. So, by simply looking at someone's face and eyes, I can tell if they are unaware of what could occur out of nowhere, and hopefully catch them off guard," Artisticpaw said. Well, that was a start. What else could she say? "Oh, and I've been told I am quite innovative and creative - I think that's what my name refers to - so if you allow this, maybe late at night, a bit past sunset maybe, I can gather up some kits, apprentices, maybe even a few warriors, and make up some scary stories to tell. Or maybe, it can be a side event all the Scarries can participate in. Like, each one takes turns telling stories, or work as a team and tell stories together. But not too spooky. I wouldn't want to keep the kits up at night. I really don't think anyone would."


    ooc; ahh ;w; so sorry it's so long </3

    "And thank you for the opportunity," Artisticpaw meowed with a dip of her head before padding away. She meant to add something about mixing berry juices and mud and smear it on their pelts to look like blood; It'd be a waste of berries, and that may have been a bit too far anyways.
