If only to see the sky again - Three [Dictated]

[Todd had the fortune of not running into the mutant cat who stole limbs, but nevertheless, from what he heard and read over the journals, it was not in any shape or form a pleasant weekend.]

How often do these extreme events happen here?

Or was that the worst of them?

[And with that, Allen is hanging out in the lobby today. He's sitting on a couch, while leaning over a coffee table that has a medical text and a notebook resting on them. He's got numerous stacks of books near him, and occasionally jotting down notes in the notebook.]

[Yeah. Somehow this was an easier study spot than his house full of squirrels and fail!demons. Who would've thought?]

[ Lana doesn't fall asleep accidentally very often these days. She's too wired, too stressed, too anxious, always too something. But when you're watching old movies, sprawled on a comfy couch, with a dinosaur sleeping half on your torso and a puppy covering your feet, it's hard to stay awake.

She awakens just before the doorbell rings, and Shadow is up to run downstairs and bark at the door like the terrible guard dog he is. Sansa wakes up confused and latches onto her arms, leaving Lana with little choice but to carry her awkwardly down to answer the door. A quick glance at the monitor lets her see who it is, so she's already smiling a bit when she opens the door, unaware of that silly journal open and recording nearby. ]

[ And for a moment, Ezio just stares at the dinosaur in Lana's arms, not quite sure what it is. Then, after a second of surprise, he manages to get something out of his mouth: ]

Well. I was going to be charming and handsome, but I was not expecting you to be holding a lizard the size of a child!

[ He holds out the bouquet he brought, anyway. There are dark red dahlias, yellow and orange calla lilies, purple trachelium, and orange roses, all suited for fall, and he offers them in a way that suggests he said something romantic, rather than that slight stumble. ]

☐ Pick out a costume.
☐ Make sure it's better than all the others!
☐ Get the biggest candy bucket to cut down on refill trips.
☐ Pick out a second costume to change into halfway through.
☐ Make a second round. Who needs to know? More candy!
☐ Don't forget to visit both the castle and the city.
☐ Trick or scare at least one person before the night's through.

[ There may or may not be horrible doodles of candies, vampires, mummies, and werewolves all over the page. HORRIBLE. But he dictates once the list is through, ]

With this you can't go wrong. And if you plan on handing out candy, you better be generous.

I can't figure out what I want to be, though.

[It's been a rough month or so for Henry. But today he sounds determined.]

Hey, everybody.

I know this month has been-- [horrifying, terrifying] --bad. Really bad. I've only been here a few months, so the castle's never done anything like this since I've been here, but.... I know it has before, and I know it probably will again. It's using its magic for evil, but not all magic has to be used that way.

What I'm saying is, we can make it better. Show the castle that it's not going to beat us with stuff like this.

[That's his speech. He's not as good at it as some of the heroes in his book of stories, but he thinks it's about time he start practicing.

What do people need when they're upset? Distractions, distractions are nice. There's a pause, and then, gentler:]

Halloween is soon, we should do something fun for it.

If you don't have Halloween in your world, don't worry about it. The only important things you need to know are that you get candy and that it's awesome.
