[ voice ]I'm glad that's all over with and I know I'm not the only one. With the week the way it was, it's almost hard to keep track of the days, but... Well, obviously, mad things happening-well, madder than usual-can only mean Halloween, so it's the end of the month and before you lot tell me I'm stating the obvious, hang on. I've got a point,

Or celebrate both.

[7thborn]

The idea's been suggested since everyone likes to eavesdrop.

[shifts]

It's not our fault when you put the feed on like that.

I didn't realize snitches wore a specific costume.

[7thborn]

I didn't do anything. The blame's entirely on Arnold.

And I don't think that word means the same thing to either of us.

[shifts]

No? What is it to you?

[7thborn]

It's a little golden ball with wings. Part of a sport we play in my world.

[shifts]

Oh.

Nevermind.

[7thborn]

[.........laughing.]

What?

[shifts]

Wrong snitch, then.

[7thborn]

What would you wear for Halloween, then, Eames?

[shifts]

Depends on the occasion.

[7thborn]

Isn't Halloween enough of an occasion?

[shifts]

There are different parties. Sometimes you just can't decide between sexy doctor or sexy astronaut. Or perhaps the setting is more appropriate for sexy tiger or sexy mob boss. Then you end up dropping large wads of cash on tiny outfits you only wear once.

I don't much celebrate Halloween.

[7thborn]

[Pause.]

Astronaut?

[The witch isn't entirely familiar with the word, but she's pretty sure you can't be a... sexy one... Can you?]

[shifts]

People who enjoy living in zero-gravity far too much.

[7thborn]

Flying, then. I can relate.
