[Romeo's face grins through the screens. It's been a pretty scary few days and he's been trying to keep his spirits up as much as he can and to help everyone else do the same. It had been pretty tricky though!

But then there had been a message on the screens and Romeo had gone to investigate and found the pumpkins, he knew what they were because he had asked when they had first found them on the platform! But he hadn't known you could make faces out of them!]

Does anyone's world have the tradition about putting faces in pumpkins? I don't think my world did! I didn't know what a pumpkin was before so I guess we didn't! How do you do it?

Also what can you make with pumpkins? They are vegetables right so we could make soup or mash it? Does it taste good mashed? Or we could fry it and eat it with rice or noodles. I'm not sure it would go well with fish but there's still a lot of fish in the store rooms.

I know it's not Blue teams time to cook but tasty food always makes me feel better so if anyone wants to come and have some food I am going to try and make something with a pumpkin and make a face with one as well!

Okay Kaito!

[He grinned and took the pen, looking at the pumpkin as he tried to decide how to make the best scary eyes.

Big wide eyes probably and lots of them. like an ayakashi... but would that be too scary? He begins drawing big round eyes.]

[stealsyourheart]

Are you planning on doing more than two? [ Kaito watches with interest ]

[myblueskies]

Yes! Do you think that will be too scary? Monsters have lots and lots of eyes!

[He pauses in his drawing for a moment.]

[stealsyourheart]

[ He considers the pumpkin and then grins ]

Eh. Why not! We're trying to make it scary, right? But don't put em too close together or it'll be hard to cut it out without damaging the pumpkin.

[myblueskies]

Okay! I'll make sure to spread them out!

[He does so, drawing five eyes carefully around the pumpkin, making sure they weren't too close together. He is sure this is going to be a very scary pumpkin!]

[stealsyourheart]

Should we add an extra mouth?

[myblueskies]

Yes! That will make it extra scary! [Next to or above? Above he thinks. Two moves, twice as likely to eat you!]

[stealsyourheart]

[ Kaito is aware he should probably stop encouraging Romeo but he's having too much fun ]

Maybe one on the back?

[myblueskies]

Yes! That would be scary!

[This was a lot of fun! He drew another mouth on the back, and another eye, so the pumpkin monster could see what it was eating!]

[stealsyourheart]

Right! I suppose we should start cutting then. Shall I do one side and you the other?

[myblueskies]

That's a good idea! [He goes to find a second knife so they can both cut the pumpkin!]

I bet it's going to look so good!

[stealsyourheart]

I hope it looks terrible [ He agrees ]

If we put candles inside, we can probably cast some wicked shadows!

[myblueskies]

[Shadows would be cool!] We could tell scary stories with the shadows! That will chase the bad spirits away!

[stealsyourheart]

Should we put ours in the games room maybe, in that case?

[myblueskies]

We could! That's a good idea!

[He debated where to start cutting. A mouth maybe? He picked up the knife and began working his way through the pumpkin.]

[stealsyourheart]

Wish we could set up a camera or something to see if we can make people jump!

[ He eyes his side and starts on an eye ]

[myblueskies]

A camera to make people jump? [How would that work?] Do you have a camera?

[He's almost part way through this eye, its a bit messy this pumpkin carving!]

[stealsyourheart]

Not to make em jump but to record it, if they do! After all, we can't be there watching the whole time, you know?

[myblueskies]

Oh! So watching them when they don't know? [To see how surprised they are. A bit like when Romeo had taken pictures of everyone Hawaii.

That gives him an idea and he grins.] I can make us both invisible if you want to sneak and watch!

[stealsyourheart]

[ Oh no, Romeo don't tell the Thief that!

Kaito blinks and the GRINS - it's a shark grin, the thief's grin, and it only ever means trouble ]

Reeeeeeeeeally? Like. Truly invisible? Can we move around like that?

[myblueskies]

Yes really really invisible! And you could move around. You would probably need to stay near me though!

[He has no idea if it would work if they weren't together and he's never actually tried to make someone else invisible before though he knows it is possible. Also some people might be able to see them, but Romeo has a lot of faith in himself and that's mostly what you needed to do spells. So that was good!]

[stealsyourheart]

Huh!

[ He says, and grins at Romeo ]

Want to use that ability to prank anyone?

[myblueskies]

What does prank someone mean? [He looked confused, it wasn't a word he knew. He didn't think Kaito would laugh at him for not knowing something though, he seemed like a really nice person!]

[stealsyourheart]

[ HORRIFIED PAUSE ]

You've never pranked anyone! Romeo, Romeo, Romeo... we need to correct this, stat! Pranking, my friend, is where you set up something to annoy someone else for fun. It can be anything - tinsel in their hair, dying their underwear... but it should never hurt anyone, and it should always be funny. Well. For you, anyway!

[myblueskies]

[He shook his head slowly, he had never pranked anyone! He doesn't know what it is!

Annoy someone for fun? Annoying someone didn't sound fun. It sounded like a sure fire way to get into trouble! But Kaito said it should never hurt anyone and that made him relieved, because hurting people was really bad!]

Don't you get into lots of trouble if you prank someone?
