Who: Mary & Sollux What: Getting that Trick or Treating experience Where: Hinkles to start When: Halloween Rating: TBD Status: Closed; Incomplete
Mary hadn't been Trick or Treating since she was in her final years of elementary school. She knew a lot of kids continued to participate in it even after they'd arrived in junior high or high school, but Mary didn't have that option. Having grown up in a hunter household, she was pushed to train as soon as she was capable of holding a gun properly and understanding proper fighting stance and style. When you lived the life they did, you never knew when the next attack was coming or what might end up in your town and you had to always be prepared to defend yourself, your family, and any innocent people who happened to end up involved in all of it. There could be no room for error caused by a lack of training due to participating in some event involving costumes and candy.
She would have gladly continued this plan, but having met a troll turned human who happened to not know a thing about Trick or Treating changed her outlook. She decided to invite him to go Trick or Treating with her if he wanted and he had agreed. The two made plans to meet at Hinkles and then set out around five or so to hit the neighborhood and see what candy could be found. Mary had gone with a pillow case as her bag of choice to haul the candy; it held a lot from what she recalled as a kid. She'd dressed in her witch costume from the party and had made sure to at least attempt make up in some sort of fashion to fit with the costume. Arriving at Hinkles, she stood outside, watching a few kids and adults pass by in costume as well. People were already starting to fill the streets for the holiday.
