o22 ★ THIS IS HALLO-WHAT?

[electrowhipit]

I've been meaning to ask this for a while now, but I guess the town had other ideas. I don't think we're... what's the phrase? Oh! I don't think we're quite out of the woods yet, but I figured I'd take advantage of the calm.

Anyway, what exactly is Halloween? I'm guessing that's why everything is suddenly decorated, but I can't even begin to guess what's supposed to be going on.

I think this is the last time I have to ask that, though. I'll have been here a year pretty soon, so I've hit all of the human holidays this place feels the need to torture us with.

... Also I guess I'm supposed to talk to a guy named Conrad?

I... suppose that makes two of us.

[electrowhipit]

Yeah, I suppose it does. Time flies, huh?

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

It's... odd to think about. A year never seemed all that long before.

[electrowhipit]

I'm surprised we're still in these bodies after this long.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

I'm... surprised we're still here, after this long.

[electrowhipit]

... Well yeah, but I kind of thought that was a given.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

Not... really. I wanted us to be out of here, by now.

[electrowhipit]

Hey, we'll get out of here. We will.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

Well... how can I refuse that kind of confidence.

[electrowhipit]

You can't. It's all part of my brilliant plan.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

Oh, really now?

[electrowhipit]

Yes, really.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

And what is the rest of that brilliant plan?

[electrowhipit]

I can't tell you. It's a secret.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

You know... interrogation was always one of my favorite subjects.

[electrowhipit]

Try all you want, but I'll never tell.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

But I can be so persuasive.

[electrowhipit]

Can you now?

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

Oh yes. Yes I can.

[electrowhipit]

I hope your methods don't involve telling other people you let them borrow my pants.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

[Pause. Wait. What? That... came out of nowhere.]

Um... what?

[electrowhipit]

I finally talked to Conrad.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

... And?

[electrowhipit]

And he said you said you gave him my pants so he painted me a picture.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

... Oh right. That. I forgot about that.
