Iris the skeleton

The first girl you met, the skinny girl with the skull facepaint - she seemed cool.

You see a lot of other fun and interesting looking people - many of them dressed up in either pervy or creepy fashion.

You take your time and find the skeleton girl leaning on a wall in one of the few smaller rooms. The small window high on the wall there is partially open to let the thick cigarette smoke out. It's cooler here and the air is also bad, but you are pretty much accustomed to breathing in tobacco, since your step-dad never remembers to open the window when he smokes - it was annoying a couple years ago, but now you just don't care anymore.

"What's up, Iris? Do you have company or..." The skinny girl rises her head and blows smoke. "Nah, I'm good, all right." She smacks her thin lips and sucks in another lung-full.

"Well, um. Mind you telling me a bit about the party? I mean, I'm a total newbie and, I heard, that you've been here before, so."

She is wearing pretty common emo get up, with a black leather jacket, black torn jeans and high boots. Her flat chest is covered by a t-shirt depicting a ribcage. "Sure, March, right? So, every Halloween since, like 2015 the Darlingtons have had a bigger party like this. I'm a friend of Chels, the one who's dressedblike a demon, right? So, I'm always invited and so are many others. Eh, you and a couple others are new this year. We do that every year." She seems kinda bored.

"So, like, would you like to know about this years big thing?" You were listening closely and a bit light headed, but nod. "So, there's always a special game or whatever. People come asking me about it a lot, since you know. So, anyway, it's a hunt this year. Anybody can participate, and the goal is to find a girl dressed like Red Ridding Hood, you follow?"

You were staring at her large empty black eyes, and stir back to reality - her voice is very calm and smooth."Yeah."

"Good, 'cause, I'm not repeating it. So, just find her and take a picture, easy. Just show me or the sisters the photo and you get a reward. She's somewhere in the house or the yard. Also, I'm not going to get cute with you so just drop it."

You blush and curse at yourself for looking at her all weird. "Sorry, um, what do you do here, I mean, there's a party? Do you get paid, or what?" You ask and sit on a couch just next to the door.

The skeleton girl shrugs and blows a cloud. "Yeah, I get paid. I'm working, so just leave me to it?" She looks at you raising her eyebrow. You start to feel unconfortable and smile back and then get out.

You take a deep breath and fix your reveling top. There's something about that girl, but you think that getting on her good side requires a lot of work. For now there's two good ways to proceed. Either go ask Chelsie about Iris and her whole act, or start the weird photo hunt.
