will you please come get your skeleton?

you don't want his jaunty top hat and bow tie to be wasted on a bad audience, right?

[badlucklady]

I am resisting the strong urge to tell you to display it on your doorstep to scare away revellers, just so you know.

[suntones]

[Warren is voluntarily exercising restraint? Warren? That... bodes ill.]

i'm not sure there's enough room for him on the walkway.

[badlucklady]

[He tried. ✩ ]

Hang the top half out a window?

[suntones]

[Even that much restraint is concerning.

... and sort of compounding the mildly guilty feeling she has about her Halloween ambivalence.]

you don't think masaferry and ailess would enjoy him more than my neighbors?

[badlucklady]

Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine.

I will pick up the gentleman's remains before morning.

1/3

[suntones]

thank you...

[suntones]

[... yeah, the guilt is winning out. Damnit. He did seem genuinely invested in this.]

[suntones]

... would i have to dress up like a condiment? or destroy things to participate?

Any costume suits the celebration. One may string up a popcorn garland or paint porcelain black cats for a cozier evening.

But you needn't force yourself for my sake.

[suntones]

[Those do sound better than the enjoyment of fear and destruction of property aspects he was pitching.]

it matters to you though, right? and... a new experience wouldn't be the worst thing.

though i probably need more guidance on the costume. don't think i've ever dressed up for anything but a school event.

[badlucklady]

[She will never be a Bad Bitch at this rate.]

I suppose you've caught me. Few holidays which modern society has not yet discarded are as entertaining as the one in which I might spy a mini-me.

Women, classically, chose flattering costumes. For you... Well, I doubt you want the attention.

[suntones]

[Look, she already lived her own cerebral horror and killer stalker moments. Give a bitch a break.]

meaning... vampire costumes are popular?

not sure i want to wear an unflattering one...

[badlucklady]

[Her plastic pumpkin tub will overflow with snack-sized Kit Kats.]

Wonderfully popular. There is nothing wrong with an oversized giraffe costume, either.

[suntones]

what about me says 'oversized giraffe costume'?

[badlucklady]

Nothing! The incongruity is what makes it funny.

[suntones]

maybe something other than a giraffe? it's a bit too close to feeling like i'm poking fun at keiki.

[The beauty of kirin and giraffe being homonyms in Japanese at play.]

[badlucklady]

Sports team mascot? An ice cream sandwich? Kasa-obake?

[suntones]

do people really dress up as ice cream sandwiches?

[badlucklady]

*Sexy* ice cream sandwiches.

[suntones]

how would you even
what would make a
what?

[badlucklady]

Are you asking me to demonstrate?

[suntones]

does explaining require a demonstration?

[Normalize answering questions with answers, Warren!!]

[badlucklady]

If it did not require a demonstration you would not have asked for an explanation. Use your imagination, Youko! Think of the creamy vanilla nestled in chocolate's inescapable embrace!

[suntones]

i don't think my imagination can do enough heavy lifting on this one to make it make sense.
