You guys are welcome to give me more idea while I figure out the next chapter of Violet and the God!

6. Trick or Treating
"Oh my gosh, you got him to do it!" Sophie squealed as the family approached the trio.
"Actually, Lily did, but if I had had a few extra minutes, I would have managed it," Violet answered. "I love the costumes, by the way."
"Thank you," Sophie twirled around, making her dress flare out. She had decided that she wanted to be a queen, which meant she had bought Steve the matching King costume and as a joke, she got Bucky a knight one.
"Uncle Stevie! Uncle Bucky!" Lily ran from where she had been holding Loki's hand to run to the other two men. "Do I look like Miss Tasha?"
Bucky pulled out his phone and snapped a picture, "Exactly like her, kid. Let's see how she likes it."
"Okay!" Lily let herself be picked up by Bucky as they both waited for Natasha to respond.
Steve shook his head and looked over at Violet, "You look very nice, Captain."
"Thanks, King Rogers. Doesn't my Sergeant look nice too?" She bumped Loki with her hip, earning an eye roll from him.
"I think I pulled it off better," Bucky interjected.
"Be quiet, Bucky." Sophie said, "I think you look nice, Loki."
"Yes, well, these pants are ridiculous and the boots are horrendous, but the jacket is almost bearable." Loki sniffed indignantly.
"He means he's gonna try to have fun tonight, right honey?"
Before Loki could answer, Lily squealed loudly.
"Miss Tasha thinks I look just like her!"
"Did you guys already send out pictures?" Sophie asked as Lily went from being perched on Bucky's metal arm, to sitting on Steve's shoulders.
"Thor adored the family selfie and Aunt Maria told us to have fun. Hang on, I should send it to Clint and Bruce too." Violet pulled her phone out of one of the pouches on Loki's belt and set to tapping on it.
"Are we gonna go soon?" Lily asked, well, whined.
"Not if you whine, little flower,"
"Okay, Daddy…" She huffed, her chin resting in Steve's hair, his plastic crown on her head.
"Let's get going before someone I know gets grumpy," Violet said.
"Daddy?" Lily asked, making Sophie attempt to hide her snort, Violet laugh loudly and Loki to scowl slightly.
-OT-
"You remember our rules, baby?" Vi asked as the group walked down the sidewalk.
"Only go to houses with lights on, always take you, Daddy, Aunt Sophie, Uncle Steve or Uncle Bucky with me, don't go in any houses, always say thank you, don't wander off, and don't have a temper tantrum when you say it's time to go home."
"Good girl. Now it is 6, we have another 35 minutes or so of sunlight, I'd like to be home before 7:30. Understood?
"Aye aye, Captain," Sophie saluted, Steve and Bucky following suit.
"You all suck, get going, we'll be right behind you," Vi gestured to the house they were passing. Lily squealed and dragged Sophie along as she went across the lawn.
"Try to have fun tonight Loki, please." Violet whispered to her husband, swinging their hands between them.
"I will, darling, I promise."He kissed her knuckles softly. "For her."
"Thank you. Clint was rolling at the picture and Bruce sent me a picture of him and Stark at the Halloween thing they are doing."
"Glad to here they get such amusement from you forcing me into the outfit."
"I get amusement from it to, but I do miss your hair…" She ruffled the short hair.
"You'll get the rest of it back in a short while."
"Mama! Daddy! Let's go to the next house!"
40 houses later, Loki had counted, Violet decided it was time to go home. She had carried the pillow case full of candy Lily had gotten, while Loki carried Lily herself. She was sound asleep before they hit the driveway.
"See, that wasn't so bad," Violet cooed as she got Lily ready for bed, watching as the red faded from her hair back to its normal shade of black.
"I suppose not," Loki shook his head, letting his own hair grow back out to just above his shoulders. Violet tucked Lily in and then pulled Loki by the hand out of the room
"Come on, Sergeant Barnes; let Captain America show you how much she loves you."
"Aye aye Captain,"
