Even though I&#8217;m busy, distracted, and playing KanColle, I&#8217;m still finding time to snap these images thanks to KanColle also having expeditions on timers.<\/p>\n<p>This Halloween has also been felt more like Christmas due to me being rewarded\/gifted with a nice chunk of Polish\/Slovak deli (beer-wurst, headcheese, hot dogs, sausages, blood sausage, and milk); Salmon Sushi I rewarded myself; Mount &amp; Blade: Warband being bought for $13 CAD on a Steam sale (eyed this game for a VERY long time); Ice Cream sandwich gifted; And etc. It&#8217;s just been an awesome uppity time-frame that I&#8217;m gradually getting back into my mix. I&#8217;ve even pre-ordered the blue-hared &#8216;Frame Arms Girls&#8217; for January&#8217;s get.<\/p>\n<p>As for the photoshoot for Halloween? Borrowing &amp; building off of the past Halloween festivities by using the lamp. Just making use of that a lot. Even purposely messing with filters to see if I can push out a &#8220;Halloween&#8221; vibe to it.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 551px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/arcticukitsu.com\/Blog\/blogpics\/October\/P1280667.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcticukitsu.com\/Blog\/blogpics\/October\/P1280667.JPG\" alt=\"\" width=\"551\" height=\"310\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8211; Peaka-BOO!~<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure style=\"width: 533px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/arcticukitsu.com\/Blog\/blogpics\/October\/P1280670.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcticukitsu.com\/Blog\/blogpics\/October\/P1280670.JPG\" alt=\"\" width=\"533\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8211; A more &#8220;cheesy&#8221; take on the Halloween spirit eh?

It&#8217;s a shame I could not celebrate in Minecraft, or any other game, because of how intensive they are as a software when compared to PC, hosting, and etc.<\/p>\n<p>I am however happy to have Varakitsu, Renge, Kohiru, &amp; Fubuki in this year&#8217;s Halloween shots. Hoping for next year to up the game a bit (or a lot) with projects wanting to be done. I feel that her expression in the second half really make her more lively, and more active, as a fox spirit. It feels, at least to me, that Vara befriended Fubuki while putting her in service of keeping things &#8220;Vara-Spooky&#8221; in atmosphere (say it a few times until it puns in your mind) as a foxy ninja. It should be overly awesome once I finally gift Varakitsu her long &#8220;Fox&#8217;s Fang&#8221; (Human variant) &amp; her more personal type. Should be sweet to pose her with her lovely blade.<\/p>\n<p>I was amused to have also seen a fully decorated black Halloween truck going around. Sadly, I can&#8217;t share it. It&#8217;s neat, yet can&#8217;t share. Houses were in the decline (once again) in quantity &amp; quality of Halloween displays. I did see &#8220;Trick &#8216;o Treaters&#8221;, just in the minority.
