There are smiles on so many faces, and it is all due to the holiday that Robin informed me about. ...I suppose I am in need of a costume.

I thought to merely observe, but the enthusiasm in the air is rather captivating, and I hear there is to be a celebration in the square. I think that if we are to learn the most we can of other cultures, then

I still say the bunny idea is solid gold.

[cooperating]

You are rather adamant on the subject. Any particular reason?

[tehpuck]

Because it's adorable. And I find it personally amusing.

[cooperating]

Is it really so adorable? A person walking around with ears shaped like that merely reminds me of the Viera... And I wish not to offend Fran.

[steadfastedly]

Well, if you want to dress up, I guess I'll find a costume, too. Did you have anything in mind, Larsa?

I have a few of those colored coins set aside, I've been doing a lot of odd jobs lately.

[cooperating]

Why am I not surprised?

No, I fear not... Perhaps it would be best to go browse.

[steadfastedly]

You're not mad, are you?

I'll get Fran and you can get Basch? We can all go together.

[cooperating]

Should I be mad because you are making a living for yourself here? It just makes it seem so...permanent. I only hope you are taking care with who you work for.

That sounds like a good idea. I will retrieve him.

You could always go as a girl and see if anyone is fooled.

[cooperating]

If that is supposed to be a joke, I am not laughing.

[so_very_greedy]

No, no, it'd be great! I even did some concept art for it

Pretty sweet, eh?

[cooperating]

Words cannot describe how you disgust me. I think I will go with a different idea, Greed. My thanks for your input.

[mostloyalknight]

Ah, yes, this 'Halloween' thing. I have heard little about it myself, although I think it would be amusing to find a costume.

Penelo thinks we all should go shopping with some money she has saved up. And while we are out, I believe I will look for a...job as well. My station holds no bearing here.

[mostloyalknight]

I agree. I think it would be a fine exchange for some of the things that have been going on recently. Your station holds bearing to me, my lord. I will serve and protect you, no matter what country or world - or city, for that matter we are in.

[cooperating]

That is good to know, of course, but I fear that is not enough for me to gain currency here.

I only wonder what sort of place would be willing to hire someone as young as I.

[charmingthief]

Expenses?

[cooperating]

Paying for one's costume, of course.

[charmingthief]

You don't have money...? If you'd like, I can spot you. I have quite a bit.

[cooperating]

Not very much, currently. Oh no, thank you. A friend will be paying.
