Exploring the outside world hadn't been number one on the priorities this week, considering it was obviously not dangerous- given the reactions by the other residents- but after a week and a half without the sun on their faces, eventually the twins ended up among the throngs of tourists, costumed actors, and excitable children. Two steps outside in the Florida summer humidity demanded they reconsider their choice of clothing; though their heavy gear and battle leathers were reliable and something of a comfort blanket for both, dying of heat stroke didn't compare to some personal discomfort over thin fabric with strange designs and too much skin revealed- though two hours into their exploring, Gretel already knew she was going to be pink by the time the sun went down.
In denim that was far too short in her opinion and a sleeveless t-shirt with the outline of a woman archer on the front, she squinted through the orange sunset glare with a hand shading her eyes, trying to read a large sign nearby while waiting for Hansel to return with some kind of food.
"Welcome to the Haunted Mansion," she read aloud to her twin, as his shadow approached and melded with her own. "What exactly is the point of announcing something like that?"
