/In all honesty, if it were a year ago, you would not even question it.
Now, though? I'm not, unless I'm invited to. I can only judge by the situation itself. Earth was a morality shift, so I can think of it in those terms, you know? Besides, people let on a lot more than you'd realize with the simplest, smallest things. You just gotta pay attention, and if I'm wrong, then I'm wrong, it wouldn't be the first time. At least I'm learning.
/It does! People think they're a lot more coy than they really are, more secretive... but if you know what to look for, it's all there. And even if you can't tell what the truth is, you can recognize a mask when you see one./
/That's exactly it! I'm trained and wired for it, telepathically or otherwise. You should meet Emma Frost one day, I'm so curious to see what you would think of her./
/There's a whole tradition about it? Like, kids go knocking from house to house asking for candy, and if you don't do it, they'll do something lightly mischievous to you. In theory. It's kind of a day for spooky things, ghosts, zombies, horror, that kind of stuff.
And when you grow up, well, you use it to dress up in a costume and go get drunk and do stupid, fun things with your friends./
/At our ages? Absolutely. And it's whatever you want, sexy, stupid, cute, really, whatever your heart desires.
We're doing mutant exchange! We're doing each other's uniforms-slash-X-Men aesthetics, So I'm going as Magik, Magik is going as — Scott Summers, he hasn't gone through stuff yet to have a uniform, Scott is going as Kid Omega, Kid Omega is going as Hellion, Hellion is going as One-In-Five. It's going to be very chaotic.
Thank God Magik goes into the battlefield in leather. I'm gonna have a great time!/
I have none, right now. Silly because I had so many dance costumes at home! Useless to me now. Maybe I'll just wander that clothes place until I find something.
/Okay, hear me out. You do tarot, right? Why don't you get all dolled up and go as a fortune-teller? Really lean into the concept. Who's to say what a fortune teller looks like?
... Aside from, you know, you bringing tarot and having way too many beads. You gotta have that or it's gonna feel incomplete./

You'll come to Halloween, right? Everyone important to me is going to be there, so obviously, you have to come. Don't make a liar out of me./

I'll see what I can rustle up, though./

It's a good idea, though. I just can't promise accuracy as the drinks go down./
