Post XLIV -voice-

[Well, someone from the church has to play counter weight to Maxwells grump act. You can very distinctly hear Abel munching on candy, and the sound of something hollow being tossed away now and again.]

Who put all these little doll heads...

Oh! Hello! Happy Halloween everyone, I hope you're enjoying yourselves! Did anyone else get doll heads

Not to worry. Joseph and I will bee keeping watch on our ends.

[13sugars]

Thank heaven for that, someone needs to be on night patrol for this day. I'm sure there are a few who will take advantage of this night in less than festive ways.

[hamonatrix]

No doubt. I'm sure 6 would like the company though, I might bring him by for a bit.

[13sugars]

Oh? Well, I guess this is true, he and 3 really should get back together again sometime, shouldn't they?

So then, I take it that you and your son will be going through the city? Are you dressing up?

[hamonatrix]

Yes, and I have yet to meet the little one, so it all works out.

I think I have a mask that will come in handy.

[13sugars]

Wonderful, feel free to stop by whenever you have the time then.

You do? Oh! Did you get a mask at the doorstep as well?

[hamonatrix]

We certainly shall.

Indeed I did. It reminds me of something I had back in Venice. I've finished 6's pants, so he can dress up too!

[13sugars]

Really? What does it look like?

... You know, I didn't know they needed pants...

Here. [she clicks on the video feed] I'll show you.

Technically, no, they don't--but 6 is so active that he's getting a bit threadbare about the knees. I figured another layer might help.

[13sugars]

Oh! That's so pretty! So you got more of a formal mask for the occasion, huh?

Oh I see. Well, considering how he spends his time... 3 just seems to enjoy riding around on my shoulder. I think it's more comfortable and safe for him there.

Re: Video;

[hamonatrix]

I suppose I did!

Yes. Though he's been considerably more quiet since...the incident.

[13sugars]

Lucky... [Abel... Isn't about to show you the mask he got oh god]

The incident? ... O-oh you mean... with the chips. Yes I can... imagine he would be.

Re: Video;

[hamonatrix]

I take it your was rather disappointing?

Yes, the chips. Though his arm is good as new again, thanks to certain young alchemists. I believe it is the loss of a friend that troubles him the most.

[13sugars]

Ah well... A little.

He lost some one as well? ... My condolences, I had no idea.

Re: Video;

[hamonatrix]

You may borrow mine if you like. I could always have 6 paint my face instead.

It wasn't so much of a loss as it was being cut off from communication, but still, he blames himself. I think he is afraid of ending up alone here--much as Jojo was when Caesar was sent back.

[13sugars]

Oh no, that's okay, I wasn't really going to go out anyway. Just share the candy I have here with the trick or treaters.

Oh... I see, he fell out of a friendship.

So both you and Jojo were pretty close to Caesar. ... You never know. Maybe he'll come back again some day. And trust me, I don't think any one here will ever actually be alone. Not when most of the city just cares so much.
