[center][size=5][b]APPLE BOBBING[/b][/size][/center]
[i]You make your way to an ancient tent. The fabric was probably a vibrant purple once, before it was bleached by the sun and battered by decades of rain. As you draw closer, you see that the tent is marked with the faded lines of strange runes and ominous sigils. You lift the musty door flap and enter.
As your eyes adjust to the gloom, you see a massive cauldron in front of you, full to the brim with a strange stew. A fierce-looking lady Ridgeback crouches over the pot, stirring its contents with a long, sharp talon that glows an unnatural green. Mysterious shapes float to the surface and are pushed under before you can identify them. You take another step, and the Ridgeback’s head suddenly snaps up and she fixes you with a stare that could out-gaze a Basilisk.[/i]

Acquire one of the movies listed below. Make yourself some popcorn, sit yourself down, and watch the entire movie from start to finish. DO NOT search for summaries or ANY information on the movies before you watch them! They contain brilliant plot twists and really clever dialogue, and you will ruin the experience for yourself. I promise that they’re all really good, and they’re all movies that I feel completely comfortable watching with my dear mum. Send a private message to Figmentling with the subject “AB Excellent Movies”. Write what kind of popcorn you had, which movie you chose, who your favorite character was, and why.
If you have seen one of these movies before, pick one you haven’t watched. If you’ve seen them all, you know they’re worth re-watching, so go ahead and make that popcorn ^.^

A curious spiral with a wide grin approaches the bobbing for apples stand. She has a wide grin on her face and giggles a little when she comes to the barrel.
"What a fine game this day, I think I shall give it a go and play."
She dunks her head into the water hoping for a wonderful treat.

Slytherin looked left, then right. She was the Clan's leader, so she could not be seen doing this kind of things. Once she made sure no clanmate of hers was near, she approached the Ridgeback with a soft smile.
"I'll play" she said "And I also would like to purchase some tickets"
Once she had passed a bag filled with coins and gems to the other, the coatl faced the cauldron. Should bobbing for apples look this dangerous? And is that a skull steaming in the greenish liquid? Gathering her courage, Slytherin grinned at the little snakes in her hair.
"Shall we, my darlings?"
The tiny snakes hissed happily. More heads meant more mouths, and more chances to snag something good. And if anyone tried to call her a cheater... well. Shadowlings are tricksters, it's in their nature.
EDIT: Pinging @IntoTheWoods bc you should come and play!

A cheery young Sky dancer wanders up to the Ridgeback "Hey I remember you!" He says happily "can I play?" he asks as he goes over to the water

Somehow this proud Imperial Alpha had been persuaded to join the festivities by her pushy sister, Lilith, and her mate. Her large obsidian sister was shoving her excitedly to the Apple Stand. Lyvella trudging beside her own mate with little interest in games when more import matters could be catered to.
"Let's go try this! Eeeek!" Lilith shoved ahead, bringing her mate along and Lyvella sighed with dismay.
"Let's get this over with!" she sighed with a roll of her eyes but a good humored smiled as she watched her sister utterly excited like a child.
Lyvella walked in, listened to the intriguing Ridgeback and removed her apparel as instructed, placing them gently in her mate's paws to hold. "You're next," she grumbled. If she had to suffer the antics of Lilith and Bercilak, so did her mate! She looked at Pluto for a moment before looking to the cauldron of interesting goo, sucked in a breath and dunked her head in with a sploosh!
@InkyBrush Come play with me! x3 <3
