[Hello, citizens of Ink City! If you aren't a basement dweller, you may notice a huge sign saying “INK CITY COSTUME PARTY TODAY” in front of a large building decorated with jack o lanterns, fake cob webs, fake spiders, and other Halloween related decorations. If you walked up to the building, there is another sign that says “Come on in!”.

[Lounging on the snacks table is an absolutely ridiculous looking bird costume of some sort. No, really. I hear reports there's Yakko somewhere in that pile of feathers but you never know. Every now and then he slightly props back open the beak in order to eat something. Yakko knows exactly how ridiculous this looks and he's very proud of it.

He'll also be running around like a hooligan in a bit. 'Food' first.]

[Don't mind him, he's just giggling over your costume, Yakko.]

[Oh, you want to get into who looks sillier?

Taken a look in the mirror lately?]

Nice "outfit".

[avoidingwork]

I'd say the same for you, dude! At least mine's scary!

[Because who's scarier than Trevor?]

[hellofourthwall]

Yeah, that crotchplate alone'll give me nightmares for a week.

[Trying to look smug but is really just very amused by this]

Hey, it took me a long time to find this! It better be scary!

[hellofourthwall]

Trust me, it is.

[strawberry_roll]

Birds can be plenty scary.

*...Though that costume definitely isn't. She can't help giggling.*

[hellofourthwall]

Sure they can! Just ask Hitchcock.

[Neither can Yakko. He's definitely amused.]

[avoidingwork]

C'mon, as if a bird is scarier that that fish man!

[strawberry_roll]

So you've never been the least bit creeped out by a bird? Not even like a vulture, or the thought of one s-l-o-o-o-w-l-y circling overhead, watching your every move...? Or a sudden rush of black wings as a beady-eyed missile bursts from the all-concealing leaves, darting right for you all talons and sharp, tearing beak...?

[avoidingwork]

Dude, I've been friends with Mordecai all my life. There's no way that a bird can scare me.

[strawberry_roll]

So Mister Mordecai's never scared you? Not even when you really ticked him off...?

*Totally not leaping to conclusions here based on her own past experiences with him. What are you talking about?*

[avoidingwork]

[Thinks for a few moments...]

I don't think he did.

[hellofourthwall]

I bet we can fix that.

[He's joking. Honest.]

[strawberry_roll]

...Hmm. That's surprising...
