Zuko had one of two options the night of the schoolwide Halloween party. A; he could go out amongst the crowd to avoid all his superhero homework that he had been putting off because of work or not feeling like it, or B; he could take his studies seriously. Some fresh air and a tiny bit of social interaction would do fine. Besides, he even had a costume. Kind of. He had found the blue and white mask in the ashes of the burned theater. Part of him was saving it for when he became a hero. But this was a one time thing, anyways. He slung the mask to one side of his head, put on pretty much every black piece of clothing he had, and made his way tot he gym. The music was pulsing loudly, and he heard mingling and dancing. He wasn't ready to go in. Not yet. So, he sat by the side of the wall when he noticed one of the jack o'lanterns, probably carved by some art students with laser vision, was starting to grow dim. Well, that wouldn't do. He picked up the pumpkin and touched the wick. The dying flame suddenly burst to life, and acting quickly, he fed small blades of grass and twigs to give the fire something to burn that wouldn't be the gourd or the building. So long as he kept the fire under control, the party would be safe.

Kyo didn't much fit in to the social scene. He had difficulties getting to know others, but even that didn't stop him from going out that night to see what was going on during the Hallow's Eve party. He ventured out with a small kitsune mask, he didn't want to overly dress up, so it was simple enough. The mask looked more like a cat then a kitsune though, but had the customary white with red marks.
He tried going to the party, but felt so out of place so he decided to step outside of the gym and noticed a guy with a blue and white mask that sorta looked like Chinese origin. He shrugged a bit noticing that the guy was lighting the pumpkin. As soon as he assumed the guy was finished lighting the pumpkin he approached. "So what is the Blue Spirit up to?" he asked, putting his hands into his pockets.

The Blue Spirit. He liked that. Maybe once his people battery was at a decent level, he’d use that as his costume. But for now, Zuko was focused on getting the jack o lanterns back on track. The kitsunr…or was it “cat-sune” given the design?…had a voice he recognized, even if they had a seemingly comfortable “hi bye” situation.
“Just giving these guys more light. The last thing people need to be wandering lost on Halloween night.”

"Indeed." Kyo said shrugging his shoulders a bit. The red head could imagine for some that it would be quite scary for some of the students that wandering around the night especially Halloween might be a bit scary. "At least they seem to have the right guy for the job." He noticed the guy from afar a few times with his fire powers. It seemed to be quite fitting. Kyo took a deep breathe. The autumn air seemed to be getting a bit cooler, but he didn't mind, he actually loved this time of year the best.

Zuko let out a soft laugh. “Who knows? Maybe they’ll give me a tip, even if it’s in extra candy.” He was only doing this because his people battery wasn’t fully charged. Once it was, he was going to in. The jack o lanterns were also a nice way to release nervous energy. He didn’t want to set a place on fire.

Kyo gave a light laugh in return. "Yeah I guess. Hey atleast it's a sweet tip." He looked around that hallow night and just felt calm for the minute, better control of the beast within. "Guess like there's some party going on inside? Not like that's my thing, but still like a good party." He took a deep breath.

Zuko stole a glance to the door. The bass was thrumming loudly, and he heard the occasional cry of laughter from within. Whatever was going on behind those closed doors was tempting. He adjusted his blue spirit mask and relit another jack o lantern. “Truth be told, this isn’t really my kind of scene. I just came out to “ he shrugged, “I don’t know, subtly participate? Be close but not close enough, you know what I mean?” He dismissed the flame with a small chuckle. “Either light jack o lanterns of make twenty pumpkin spice lattes at work.

"I hear yeah." Kyo agreed with the fire user. "These things aren't really my type of scene either. To be honest, I try to avoid it, it's not very comfortable." Not to mention that Kyo had a problem of turning into a monster cat, thanks dad. Yet to be honest it felt reassuring that he wasn't alone in not enjoying these type of surroundings. Kyo might love the stage, but going to a party was another thing.

Zuko nodded wordlessly. Well, at least there was someone else that wasn’t exactly in the party mood. He was intrigued at the choice of words the redhead used. Uncomfortable. As in sensory? Socially? A mix of both? Well, Zuko wasn’t going to pry. The pumpkins were all lit. Now he could just sit and soak in the atmosphere.
