My trick or treater and story!

Normal pet affairs seem so silly. However, Vinari was so insistent on making Celeste play along that she practically had no choice in the matter.

"You'd be an idiot not to," Vinari had told her, "you have a perfect magical girl 'costume' already, so why not go?"

"What if my bow gets damaged?" She had asked, voice strained with anxiety. Vinari had stared at her in silence as if she had grown a second head, which Celeste guesses is a fair reaction, given all her weaponry was fashioned out of light magic.

Celeste sighs as she approaches the first house, quickly trotting up the driveway to the front door, with Vinari struggling to keep up behind her. The small blue creature glares at her with annoyance.

Celeste takes a deep breath in and knocks on the door, pacing nervously in small circles.

"Trick or treat?"

I'm hoping "magical girl pretending to be a trick or treater dressed as a magical girl" is acceptable, I didn't see anything in the story or costume rules that suggested it wouldn't be and I thought it was a super funny and endearing character idea XD

OMG I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!! its so cute <3

I picked my trick or treater for this year, but haven't found an inspiration for his story. D,X


This is what I got so far;

Kasper loved Dinosaurs since he was a small kid.

His family knew what his favorite interest was. His friends knew. His entire class knew. It seemed like the entire world knew. Ever since Kasper saw Jurassic Park, his special interest for these reptiles grew from there! Why wouldn't dinosaurs be interesting? There were scary ones like the T-Rex, to flying ones like the pterodactyl, and the Plesiosaur; which ruled the seas.

any advice on writing a decent story for LOLO?

Well, I always get overrun by world-building plot bunnies. The struggle for me is to clip my story to a reasonable length. ^^'

Some prompts for yours:

• If he likes all kinds of dinosaurs, then what made Kasper decide on a pterodactyl costume?
• How did Kasper make his costume? Did he find it in a store? Did he make it himself? On his own, or did someone help him?
• Does Kasper go trick-or-treating on his own or with friends or family?
• And of course: end the story with Kasper walking up to a house and knocking/ringing the bell

Also: I really like your dress-up! c:
I'm always amazed when people choose an uncommon/difficult lineart and make it work. Putting a dinosaur costume on a Tess guinea pig would've never occurred to me.

Since everyone is showing off their costumes, heres my costume for this year!

its very simple because i dont have very many items to make a good costume with, i got everything he's wearing from trades ^^"

I'm back for my second year of LOLO! Last year felt like it was yesterday.

I've decided to make my trick-or-treater another dog from the same litter and Toby's nervous little brother, i'm so proud of the dressup and my story! I had to stop myself from making the story too long, that's what tons of c.ai does to you

Finally, it was that time of year again, the day Tiny had been waiting for yet dreaded. Halloween!
He was quite the scaredy-cat and such a spooky holiday was a bit much for him, so he never participated before. Only after a lot of convincing from his siblings and friends, he was going trick-or-treating for the very first time.

Tiny was upstairs attaching his fake claws as he finished putting on his Mothman costume, eager yet nervous to go outside. Ironically, he loved cryptids despite his timidness. As he grabbed his favorite Mothman plushie, slipped a glowstick around his neck, snagged his trick-or-treating bag and brought his flashlight he slowly came down the stairs where he was met by his brother Toby's biggest cat, Raven. Toby had agreed to let her go with the small pup to keep him company as he explored the neighborhood.

"I- I'm ready! Let's, um, go..." He gulped as he grabbed the doorknob
"Took you long enough. Relax, you big furball, you'll be okay!" Raven playfully assured him as they padded out the door and down the street, into the dark and chilly night.

As they walked down the sidewalk surrounded by trees, Tiny flicked his ear in worry as he swore he heard a strange noise coming from the forest.
"Um, Raven, did you-" He widened his eyes in horror as the black feline wasn't by his side anymore.
"Raven? Raven??" He squeezed his plush and sped up his walking as he frantically looked in the looming shadows for her.

"BOO!"
Raven jumped out from behind a tree right in front of Tiny, scaring the daylight out of him. He leaped back and shrieked in fear, his glasses falling off his snout and fumbling his stuff.
"AH! R- Raven!!" He scolded the cat as he frantically scooped up his dropped items, shivering.
"Gotcha! That gave you a good scare, didn't it? " Raven purred to herself as she helped him up. "Let's go to a house, now. We can't wander all night!"

After collecting himself, Tiny continued to follow Raven down the street as she led him in front of a house.
"This one looks spooky! How about you give it a visit?" She nudged him towards the house, giving him a wide grin.
"But- but-" Before he could answer, the kitty pushed him up to the door and jumped up, pressing the doorbell for him before running off.
Terrified, Tiny quickly prepared himself and cleared his throat before nervously calling out:

"Um, trick-or-treat...!

[LeFluer]

Im so excited to be participating this year! I’ve already sent my lil Smokey to some houses and everyone’s been so generous. I love when people get creative and write stories back ^-^

Heres my Smokey

[Synapsid]

This might be a silly question, but traditional art is fine for an art treat right? Or worst case, I can just ask the person?

My trick-or-treater and story! I finally decided to join LOLO after a few years so here they are. His name and the first sentence is based off AOT c:


Pet's name: Porco
Story:
It all begins with Porco, the strong-jawed pup. He's known to be quite quiet in his neighborhood, always hoping to not be a disturbance. But, for once he had decided to take it upon himself to join in the Halloween fun. Porco doesn't have much experience with costume design, so he decided to pick out a simple skeleton suit. He can't forget what the cashier told him after scanning his items, "Is this really what you're going to dress up as?" Porco, being his introverted self, just gave an awkward nod and avoided their gaze.
Before settling himself in his costume, Porco looked in the tall mirror hanging on his door. There was doubt in his gaze. "Was he really brave enough to do this?" He questioned as his stomach began to fill with butterflies. Porco decided not to dwell on it, so he quickly put on his costume and headed out the door.
The pup kept his gaze low as he walked through the streets, eventually stumbling upon his first house. The porch light was on. A window was boarded up and the door knob was rusted. Porco took a deep breath, shaking as he exhaled. He gave the door one loud knock, followed by a more quiet, "Trick or treat?"
