“I’m not a big fan of Hallowe’en.” Kai frowned at Conrad, but he had is back to her and thus was unmoved.
“I’m not surprised, but that doesn’t mean the kids shouldn’t have their fun. They’re kids, Kaia.”
“They’re…” She couldn’t really argue. “Fine. Captain America and Wonder Woman it is.”

“Mom.” Audra dropped the costume on Kailani’s lap. “Mom.” She added a needle and thread and a pair of scissors. “Mom. Dean Storm!“
“You can’t call her that.” Her twin Alistair hissed it at her.
“I can if she doesn’t answer to anything else. Mom!”
Kai blinked at her children. “Right.” The world had ended, but Hallowe’en, damn it, had to go on. “Hem, right?”

Ohh yes. Most parents know that. I’m looking forward to this Hallowe’en, giving out candy with a “Dracula” accent. “Be careful. I don’t vant your blood… on my steps.” Yeah! “KEEP THE APOSTROPHE IN HALLOWE’EN!” Typo: had is back to her → his
I don’t have any trick or treaters in my neighborhood. Mostly because I don’t have a neighborhood.
My block is residential, VERY low in traffic (one block long, one-way towards the local main drag), and extremely popular with parents on Hallowe’en. I’ve laid in >100 units of treats.
Lucky you. There are three houses on my block. Three. And no children, unless you count calves and kittens.
Yeah, loved it. Not sure why Kailani doesn’t like Hallowe’en though. We had Iron Man this year. He wanted to be in the costume all the time.
