Room 232, Friday Night

[wantstodirect]

Tony sat on his bed, sorting through the various treats and one bottle of rum he'd picked up during trick-or-treating. Okay, maybe it had been fun to dress up.

The door was open.

[Open! I'm working on Halloween. Entertain me?]

Peyton knocked on the door jamb, still in costume. "So I went," she announced.

[wantstodirect]

"Went where?" Tony asked. He had removed the cloth serving as a ninja mask but still wore black clothes and smudged black eyeliner.

"Out to do the Halloween thing," she said, gesturing idly. "Like you told me I should on Wednesday?"

[wantstodirect]

"Did I? How wise of me," Tony grinned. "Did you have fun?"

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

She shrugged. "It was okay."

Then rolled her eyes. "Okay, yes, I had fun."

[wantstodirect]

"Good," Tony grinned. He gestured to the treats spread on his bed. "Want any candy? Or rum?"

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

"Ooh, rum!" Peyton said cheerfully. "Yes, please!"

[wantstodirect]

Tony picked up the bottle and realized he didn't have any glasses. "Mixed or straight?" he asked, figuring as long as he had to run into the common room for cups he could also grab Coke or something.

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

Peyton thought for a moment. "Mixed might be smarter."

[wantstodirect]

"One sec," Tony said. He went out to the common room and came back with two glasses and two cans of Coke. He mixed up rum and cokes for both of them, going somewhat light on the rum. "Do you want more?" he asked, holding out the bottle.

She perched on one of the chairs. "This'll do for now, thanks. So how was your Halloween? Have fun?"

[wantstodirect]

"Yeah, I did," Tony said. "I went trick-or-treating." He looked at the treats spread out on the bed. "Obviously. What'd you do?"

[darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com]

"Theoretically, I went trick-or-treating," Peyton said, taking a sip of her drink. "In actuality I tagged along while others went."

A chimp with a bucket of candy walked by. "Oooh ooh ooh!" He was a tired chimp, he'd had to become human three times during the evening.

[wantstodirect]

Tony recognized that chimp. "That's cheating," he called out.

[morpherboy.livejournal.com]

The chimp shook his head. "Ooooh oooh!" He proudly waved his bucket of candy,

[wantstodirect]

"Just because it worked doesn't mean it's not cheating!" Tony protested.

[morpherboy.livejournal.com]

The chimp looked very smug and rattled his bucket again. He paused, held up one finger, and vanished. Two minutes later, Marco returned, bare footed and pulling on a t-shirt. "And it's cheap!"

[wantstodirect]

"So was mine," Tony said. His eyeliner was starting to itch. He rubbed at his eye. "But yours isn't technically a costume."

[morpherboy.livejournal.com]

Marco shrugged into his t-shirt and shrugged at the same time. "It was like a full body mask!"

[wantstodirect]

Tony gave up. "You want some candy? Or rum?"

[morpherboy.livejournal.com]

Marco considered this. "You're actually sharing your stash? And who gave you rum?"

[wantstodirect]

Tony shrugged. "I got a lot. The rum was from the squirrels at the radio station."

[morpherboy.livejournal.com]

"I didn't get anything from the radio station! The pirate was complaining that I didn't say Trick or Treat. Chimps don't talk!"

[wantstodirect]

Tony laughed. "See, if you wore a real costume, you wouldn't have that problem."
