[those friendly ghosts! They dropped the Companion Cube conveniently right near the big ol' snack table, with its journal open in front of it. Isn't that nice of them?]

Oh. I am different, now.

I think I am ready for the Halloween.

I am happy.

Oh. Cups. I can hold those.

And books. And hats.

[hey, the Cube has a new paint job! How about that.]

You are different?

[my_six_hearts]

I am different.

I can tell.

[encryptedlock]

[Ooo. Curious Delta is curious.]

In what way are you different?

[my_six_hearts]

[good question there, D. It's gonna take a while for the Cube to ponder this question, before the journal picks up anything legible]

I...am ready for Halloween.
Ready. Changed. Dressed up?

Wybie said that Halloween was something to get ready for.

I wondered how.

Now I know.

[Wybie's just going to...stare at you for a while, Cubie]

Soooo, you decided on a costume after all, huh?

You're a... [going to hazard a guess here] square pumpkin?

[my_six_hearts]

[you know it well enough to detect some confusion in its words]

I am the Weighted Companion Cube.

Pumpkin? Pumpkin?

[why_born]

[Oh without a doubt!]

Yeah. [Wybie presses the pumpkin decoration] Like that. You know, all...orange.

[my_six_hearts]

Orange?

Pumpkin?

I am a pumpkin?
