Grim  |
Everywhere we look right now, there's just tons of people I've never seen in my life…
It really feels like some special week's started! | |
Floyd  |
Ah, it's Lil' Shrimpy, and Sealie, too. Happy Halloween. | |
Grim |
Happy Halloween!
Hehe. I'm already a Halloween pro! | |
Ace  |
Yo, you two. See you've gotten all dressed up for the occasion. | |
Grim |
Ace…
You were so worried about us you just couldn't sit around and do nothing, right? Nope, no point trying to hide it! Now, keep that attitude up as you do my homework and make my meals! Myahaha! | |
Ace |
What nonsense is coming out of your mouth? Hey, don't rub up against me, your fur's gonna get all over me! | |
| Choice 1: Thank you for telling the ghosts we didn't have costumes. | Choice 2: I'm happy that you told the ghosts about the costumes. | |
Ace |
S'not a big deal, y'know? Me and Deuce were just joking about how it seemed like you guys were gonna have a bit of a lonely Halloween… It was pure coincidence! It was pure coincidence that we were in front of Ramshackle when we said it, too. So if you want to thank anyone, thank the ghosts for making those costumes for you. | |
Jamil  |
Hey, did you guys come to see the Halloween Week celebrations? | |
Grim |
Yup. We went round all seven of the venues and then suddenly it was lunch time. What were you lot doing? | |
Ace |
Oh, we're just heading back from basketball practice. We finished early, so.
It's the first day of Halloween Week, after all! | |
Jamil |
The first years were so distracted, I'm not sure why we even bothered trying. | |
Ace |
You're one to talk. Weren't you checking your phone all through practice?
You were worried about how Scarabia's venue was doing, weren't you? | |
Jamil |
That's… I just thought it was important for me to be available in case Kalim contacted me saying he'd messed something up. | |
Floyd |
Y'all really love Halloween, dontcha? To be fair, so do I.
So Lil' Shrimpy, whose Halloween did you think was the best? Your answer's Octavinelle, yeah? It's scary, and creepy, and the most Halloweeny! | |
Jamil |
Don't scare them into giving an answer. Scarabia's theme is more sublime. | |
Ace |
Hey, don't you cave in just 'cause they're older than us!
Heartslabyul's venue and costumes were way more in-tune with each other! | |
| All | Right?! | |
| Choice 1: Well, if you really want an answer… | Choice 2: Um… | |
| I can't choose. | ||
Floyd |
What? That's your answer? You're so boring. | |
Ace |
Man, it's difficult saying my dorm's better in front of your elders. Don't worry, I getcha. | |
Jamil |
Even if that were true, you haven't the foggiest idea what modesty means, do you? | |
Grim |
You guys are taking this way too seriously. Don't need to get that upset about it. | |
Ace |
Just say it. Just say that the skeleton costumes are the best. | |
Jamil |
You don't have to be considerate just because Ace is your classmate. | |
Floyd |
Yeah, yeah. Just say Octavinelle's the best!
Choice 1 - You guys are way too desperate for me to give you an answer. | |
Jamil |
Of course we are. Night Raven College's prestige is riding on Halloween. | |
Ace |
It's like the prof said. Locals of the island come to visit,
but so do those from outside, as well. | |
Grim |
From outside? | |
Ace |
Yeah, there's a ton of people that don't live on the island that come and see us.
You probably don't know, Grim, but this place is like, super in the middle of nowhere. During the holidays, we can go home in a flash 'cause we're allowed to use the school's mirrors, but during any other time… we have to get on the train from the nearest airport, transfer to a bus, get on a boat, transfer to another boat, then get another bus… Seriously, it's such a pain in the butt to get to the Sage's Island! | |
Grim |
We're that in the middle of nowhere?! | |
Jamil |
At least call it mysterious. | |
Floyd |
That's why we're extra super duper happy when people come and liven up the place.
Events like Halloween or the magift tournaments help with the island's tourism. If we put on a crap show, it's gonna cause all kinds of icky problems. | |
Jamil |
Right. We can't hold back when it comes to any of the school events, for the sake of this whole area.
For the past few years, the number of visitors have increased because they're wanting to come meet Vil. The numbers are only expected to increase. And what's more… | |
Grim |
There's more? | |
| All | We just want people to say our dorm's the best! | |
Grim |
Why does everyone at our school gotta be so prideful? | |
Jamil |
Everyone in each of the dorms has joined hands to make their Halloween the best it can be.
There's no way we'd want someone to walk by and be all, "That dorm was a little eh," right? | |
Floyd |
Yeah, yeah. We gotta save face and stuff, y'know… | |
| Child | *Thud*
Ow! | |
Floyd |
Hm? | |
Grim |
A little girl came flying straight into you. | |
Floyd |
Whoa, you're tiny! I thought a little fish had come up to try and tickle me. | |
| Child | Eek! I-I-I'm so… I'm so sorry…! | |
Jamil |
Floyd. You're so tall, you're scaring the kid. | |
Ace |
He sure is. Floyd's practically double in height. Just imagining him towering over me is giving me the shivers... | |
Floyd |
Whaaat, you serious? Sorry, sorry. Is it better if I crouch down?
…So, little fishie. It's dangerous for you to walk without looking ahead, okay? | |
| Child | I'm sorry. But, um… I can't find it... | |
Jamil |
Are you searching for something? | |
Ace |
Did you end up losing your mom? | |
| Child | No, it's not that…
I was looking for where to go to say I finished the stamp rally. | |
Ace |
Does she mean the place where you hand in your stamp sheet? | |
Floyd |
Ah, I know where that is.
C'mere. I'll show you the way. | |
