That Halloween flyer reminded me I need to figure out what I want to dress up as.

	Is Halloween a holiday we need to dress up for? What types of costumes are we supposed to wear? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-27 01:51 am UTC (link)
	Dressing up is optional but it's a lot of fun. But you can pretty much wear whatever you want. It's sort of a dress up as whoever/whatever you want day. There's a lot of Halloween stores to check out too with a bunch of costumes. I can go with you if you want to check them out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh! That sounds really fun! If I can look at costumes I can probably make them with my alchemy if they aren't too detailed and we can get the raw materials. I'd love to go looking with you! What have you dressed up as before? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I've only had one Halloween I actually remember and I didn't really dress up last year. So I'm trying to figure out what to be this year. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, is it like fairy tell book things? Princes and pirates? Or animals? I want to be a cat if we can be animals! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Those plus sports stars, superheroes, cartoon characters, pretty much anything you want to dress up as. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-27 02:20 am UTC (link)
	Wow. That's a lot of choices given how much stuff like that I saw on the laptop in quarantine. I can see why you can't decide, that's too much choice! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I mean I could dress up as my Dad but I want to be something different. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-27 02:27 am UTC (link)
	Is your dad famous? It might be nice to be different. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-27 02:30 am UTC (link)
	He's known as Captain America. One of the first superheroes in my world. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-27 02:33 am UTC (link)
	That means he's powerful and protected people from bad guys? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-27 02:35 am UTC (link)
	Yep. I mean he wasn't as strong as some superheroes but he never quits. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-27 02:37 am UTC (link)
	That's an impressive trait in someone. But it sounds like it might be a little lonely if he wasn't home as much because he was fighting? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-27 02:39 am UTC (link)
	He uh...died in my world when I was like a toddler. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-27 02:43 am UTC (link)
	I'm sorry to hear that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-27 02:45 am UTC (link)
	It's a risk to that you take when you're a hero. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-27 02:50 am UTC (link)
	My dad died trying to be a hero, but he left us when I was really young. We only met him again a few weeks before he was killed. I know it's wrong to think it, but I don't know if being a hero is worth it if you have to leave your kids behind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-27 02:51 am UTC (link)
	Being a hero isn't for everyone. Not everyone can make that kind of choice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-27 02:54 am UTC (link)
	I haven't really thought about it from that perspective. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-27 02:56 am UTC (link)
	It's something to consider. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-27 02:59 am UTC (link)
	I will. Thank you for giving me a different perspective. It was only a few months ago and I was really sick after so I haven't really been able to think about that. I'm sorry for bringing all of this up. We should talk about happier things. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-27 03:01 am UTC (link)
	It's fine. Shit happens as they say. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-27 03:03 am UTC (link)
	Yes. ~~Though I'd not curse.~~ What else happens during Halloween? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-27 03:05 am UTC (link)
	Some people pull pranks on others. Then there's parties. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-27 12:58 pm UTC (link)
	That sounds like fun as long as the pranks aren't too mean. Is there lots of different foods at the parties? I have realized there is a lot of new foods here that I've never had and I want to try them all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-27 08:30 pm UTC (link)
	Pranks depend on the person pulling the prank. Though a lot of the pranks seem to be to throw toilet paper into trees. And there can be a lot of different foods at parties. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-28 10:43 pm UTC (link)
	The food sounds good. Toilet paper in trees is weird? Isn't that wasteful? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-28 10:51 pm UTC (link)
	I think it is but apparently people think it's a prank. Same with egging things. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-28 10:55 pm UTC (link)
	Egging things is a waste of food! That's crazy! I can use alchemy to clean stuff if gets egg on it here at school or the mansion. That's terrible though to do that. It sounds like the mean things people would do to others and laugh about it. Parties and costumes with food sound like real fun! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-28 10:57 pm UTC (link)
	I don't get it either. Yeah, they are pretty fun. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-28 10:59 pm UTC (link)
	Are there a lot of holidays like this here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-28 11:00 pm UTC (link)
	There's a lot of different holidays here. Christmas is a great one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-28 11:00 pm UTC (link)
	That's really exciting! Is it your favorite? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-28 11:01 pm UTC (link)
	I like it. It's all about family and togetherness. Plus there's snow. Or at least snow in more northern areas for snowball fights and sledding. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-28 11:03 pm UTC (link)
	That sounds like a really nice holiday. Family and togetherness! Snow is fun! I would like to try sledding ~~in this body~~. Snowball fighting is great. Are you good at it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-28 11:05 pm UTC (link)
	I'm pretty decent at it, though Texas doesn't really get much snow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-28 11:09 pm UTC (link)
	It's fall right? Was it really hot earlier? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-28 11:17 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, but with how south Texas is, it doesn't get all that cold. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-28 11:19 pm UTC (link)
	What was your home like before you came here? I like it when it's warm, but not when it's really hot and there's sand everywhere. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	avenging_son 2017-09-28 11:22 pm UTC (link)
	Honestly? Kinda bad but on the upswing now. An evil robot was trying to take over the world. My friends and I had just destroyed it when I was brought here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alchemy_al 2017-09-29 02:00 am UTC (link)
	That sounds really terrible. I'm glad you and your friends saved the world. That can be a lot to think about once it's over. Things are better for you now? (Reply to this) (Parent)
