Prompt: Cole taking Vania trick-or-treating! (caitlinsnow-yayyy on Tumblr)
Vania twirled, watching as her skirt flew out with a bright grin. "I can't believe I finally get to try this!"
Cole laughed, watching her. "What, you don't do trick-or-treating in Shintaro? It's tradition!"
"No, we don't! The costumes either."
"That's just wrong." He grinned at her, looking over her angel costume– a long white dress, with a halo– more like a crown, if he was honest, but that only made sense– and proper Shintaran wings. "Especially since you've got such an easy one right there."
She shrugged. "I guess so." She considered his costume, glancing up and down his figure. "I actually don't know what yours is..."
"Come on, you can't tell? I'm an oni!" He looked down at himself– claws, horns, false teeth, and a tail, plus all-black clothes. "It should be pretty obvious."
"Oh, well then! I've never seen an oni!" She laughed, the sound like tinkling bells. "They're just stories as far I'm concerned."
"Well, fine." He laughed too. "I guess they would be."
"Exactly! You can't blame me for that."
"I'm not blaming you! Now come on, we're gonna be late."
"Okay." She walked over to him and took his arm. "Let's go, then! I'm excited!"
He grinned, and the two of them set off, heading out the door and to a spookier world than normal, together making a walking contradiction.
(Of course, if at the end of the night they had a little too much sugar, no one had to know. They certainly didn't need to know about Cole having to take off his prosthetic teeth for… certain reasons.)
