[Halloween is practically a religious holiday for POINTEDCOUGH-something manchildren such as Vince, so you can bet your ass he'll be out there to get his free candy. He's dressed as Adam Ant's Prince Charming because that's what he's gone as since the age of eleven and he sure as hell ain't stopping now. You may find him in various situations on

( sup, vince. guess who's coming by dressed completely normal? oh yeah. because though she's heard of it, elizabeth doesn't really know what the hell trick of treating is. )

What are you doing?

Re: 01.

[numanstan]

Rescuin' all the good sweets.

[He looks up at her, confused.] Why aren't y'dressed yet?

[generose]

Rescuing. . .

( she looks back just as confused. ) I thought only kids where supposed to dress up.

[numanstan]

That's a horrible lie! Everybody dresses up on Halloween! What's the point if y'don't?

1!

[ Ian's watching from a tree, trying to figure out two things: Why is this human dressed like this? And, what is he doing?

Eventually he decides to ask. He hops out of the tree and comes strolling up the front walk.

On its own the fact that he's a dinosaur-lizard-man would be a really great costume, but the effect is kind of ruined by the fact he's wearing borrowed clothes that are too big for him ]

[numanstan]

[Sees him out of the corner of his eye.

Only sees the green.

Automatically assumes it's Old Gregg coming to murder him.

Freezes and quite obviously starts to go into a panic attack.]

[walkwaves]

[ He stops where he is, tail swishing impatiently ] I'm not here to hurt you.

[numanstan]

... Oh. Sorry, mate, thought y'were someone else... Must be a lot of fish people in Mayfield then.

1 or something I guess

[swordthrowing]

You're not actually going to eat that, are you?

[Mayfield gave them that candy. Yumeko doesn't trust it.]

[numanstan]

Uh, yeah. It's sweets.

[oh how easily he forgets the candy heart times]

[swordthrowing]

...Vince, that came from the town. It's probably dangerous.

[numanstan]

... But, it's sweets.

[At England's house.]

What are you doing?

[numanstan]

... Nothin'.

[Holding an egg behind his back like the smooth criminal he is.]

[the_wee_big_hag]

.....I can see that egg you know.

[numanstan]

... Oh.

It's, um, a... tradition. From back home. Yeah, y'go 'round on Halloween and give eggs to all your friends! For good luck!

[Have a girl dressed as an angel with a pair of fake wings at your door. She has this very large blade sticking out from one of her wrists because she's an evil angel for Halloween.

She stops at the front steps to watch him pick out the candy.]

...

...

[Holds out her basket with her non-bladed hand.]

Trick-or-treat.

[numanstan]

[Wha-- oh, right, there are other trick or treaters in town. He's supposed to be giving this stuff to people. Right.

He manages to part with a few bars of mint chocolate and eyes the blade warily.] Ain't that a bit dangerous for a costume?

[hasyourbeats]

Thank you very much. [Nods. She doesn't really mind any kind of candy, so she isn't going to complain.]

[She holds up her blade.] ...It's decoration for this occasion. Angels are normally good, so I thought I could make myself look like an evil angel.

...

Is it no good?

[numanstan]

Nah, it's a good costume. Just don't go 'round cuttin' people up, yeah?
