[ The instant question, floating for a moment before being squashed: and are you trying to get someone's attention? ]

I haven't yet indulged in the theater we have here.

[ Sort of a half-answer — a nod to an existence that hadn't left room for much by way of entertainment. ]

What did you dress as?

[ Questions she asks herself: am I really talking to Silco about dressing up as anime characters— ]

well
i dressed up as an elf princess once
and a pink nurse with this big skirt
there was a character from an anime called neon genesis evangelion?
it can basically be anyone, as long as you have the costume and get the right wig
it's kind of a niche hobby anyway

oh! halloween can have cosplays sometimes

[powerhungry]

I recall. Halloween, I mean.

[ A beat. ]

You'll have to show me, sometime.

[longlegs]

really? i can totally do that
sometime

and if you come up with a character you'd like to dress up as you have to tell me

[powerhungry]

[ There's something touching about the message, not just the cheeriness of her immediate response but the suggestion in that last line, the thought that he might ever be the sort of man to be so taken with a work of fiction as to style himself after it. ]

I will.

[ Just a month ago, he might have outright refused. Yet— ]

Do you have any suggestions?

[ a girl can dream of hex club's owner wearing that neckline ]

[powerhungry]

[ "Dracula," at least, is a concept he's passingly familiar with thanks to this place, though both pictures are a step or two more flamboyant than his usual attire — though he supposes that's the point. ]

You'll have to teach me more about both stories.

🎀?

[longlegs]

yeah def! i'm sure there will be some party that wants us to dress up again anyway

thanks for talking to me about my dorky hobbies, silco :)
