Snapshot: October 31, 2012

"She looks strange."

"How so?"

"Well, look at her. What's she supposed to be, anyway?"

"She's a puppy, Bones. Her favorite animal."

"She doesn't look like much of a puppy."

"Yeah, well she wouldn't keep the ears on, so now she just looks like a brown furry thing with a tail, but watch this; Cristina, what do puppies say?"

"Woof!"

"Good girl!"

"Booth! Don't treat her like an animal!"

"But she's a puppy, Bones! At least for tonight."

"I don't understand why we're taking her trick or treating tonight, anyway. It's not like she can eat candy with only three teeth."

"Almost four. And it's not just about the candy, Bones. It's about the experience! Come on! You love Halloween!"

"Yes but I am much older than an infant, and I only like the costumes."

"Heh…so do I."

"Booth! Not in front of the baby!"

"But, Bones, come on! You look hot as the Wicked Witch!"

"And you as the Scarecrow, which is very fitting, I must say."

Silence. "Hey! What's that supposed to mean?"

Chuckling. "Oh, nothing. You just look very handsome. Although, I don't see why you wouldn't put on the yellow makeup."

"Hey! Men do not wear makeup."

"Actors do. So do kings, and tribal leaders, and-"

"Yeah, but I'm not any of those things."

"No, you are a Scarecrow. And not a very scary one at that."

"Okay, you know what? Let's go. It's almost five and I promised Hodgins and Angela we'd meet on their block at a quarter after."

"Well, that shouldn't be too much of a walk, considering we only live one block over."

"Yeah, but I wanted to go trick or treating a little bit first."

"But, we're already going with Hodgins and Angela. Why does Cristina need more candy than what she'll get with them?"

"It's not for Cristina, Bones. It's for me!"

"For you?"

"Yeah! Halloween is the best day of the year, besides Christmas, and I always get to take Parker trick or treating and share his candy. But this year he's going with his own friends, so I've got my second excuse right here."

"You're using our daughter as an excuse to gain a sugar high?"

"Geez, Bones, when you put it like that…"

Sigh. "Nevermind. Let's just get going so we can get at least a few houses before meeting up with them."

"Bones, you're agreeing with me on this?"

"Yes, I suppose I am. I'm feeling a bit puckish myself. But first let's put Cristina's hair into pigtails so that she at least looks a bit like a puppy."

"Aww, she looks so cute."

"You sound very feminine right now birth."

"Gee, thanks, Bones."

"No problem."

"Okay, before we leave…Smile!"

"Booth, not again!"

"Come on, Bones! You look adorable in all the green gunk and Cristina's the cutest puppy I've ever seen. Aren't you, girl?"

"Woof!"

"I must admit, that is very cute."

"You see? Now, smile!" Click. "Beautiful. Now, let's go get some candy!"

"I swear, you are much more childish than Parker, sometimes."

Door closes.
