I hope that everyone's holiday is as pleasant as it can be under these unfortunate circumstances. As I ventured out today to make a few donations the emptiness of the City became that much more apparent; it's depressing to witness, though all too understandable -- just so long as everyone is safe. It's not a good night to be out.

Perhaps you should be following the Cityzens' example then, Norman.

[osreborn]

Why would I leave?

[disillusionists]

It's safer, isn't it?

[osreborn]

I'm not worried about my safety.

Why -- concerned?

[kingofatlantis]

Enjoying yourself, Osborn?

[osreborn]

It's a ghost town around here. What's to enjoy?

Bet you're disappointed, getting upstaged on your favorite holiday.

voice;

[osreborn]

I'm disappointed whenever outlying circumstances disrupt a good time.

A good time for who, is the question? Me, I'll take the monsters who wear it on the outside any day of the year.

[osreborn]

For whom? I doubt anyone will get to enjoy their trick-or-treating or parties this year, considering. Some people look forward all year to the night they can wear a mask.

Happy Halloween.

To yourself as well. [ Pause. ] Enjoying yourself?

As much as a man can while waiting for his untimely demise. The world is supposed to end tonight.

If you hadn't heard.

I'm not really the superstitious type.

Donations. You had to-- [A laugh, bitter and with an air of mocking.] You had to say you were making donations.

voice, private;

[osreborn]

Yes. To orphans. The City is in crisis, after all.

voice, private;

[afeatherpillow]

To the orphans. In the middle of an evacuation, on Halloween night. You're donating to the orphans.

Do you have a problem with charity, Katurian?
