_________________________________
The first week of Halloween has arrived in Twisted Wonderland. Inside of the Ramshackle Dormitory, Finn, Yuu, and Grim had just finished decorating the interior of the lounge inside of the Ramshackle Dorm.
"We finally finished decorating the dorm!!!"
Grim said with glee as he hopped onto the couch where Finn was sitting as she nodded to the monster's statement.
"Mhm, and we finished making the Jack-o'-lanterns just in time as well... and luckily, it came out well. We had a bit trouble at first since you two are amateurs carvers, but you guys managed to make a decent pumpkin lantern in the end..."
Finn said as she looked around the dorm, which was decorated with the jack-o'-lanterns they made and craved.
"When you first explained to me about the Jack-o'-lantern, At first, I was wondering why they would light up food... But it was really fun when we tried making one! and it came out pretty well, yanno? Like look at this pumpkin. "
Grim said as he went over to a specific pumpkin that Yuu carved out.
"This looks so much like Yuu over there. Nyahaha!"
"Hey, at least it has personality."
Yuu answered Grim, as he wiped the sweat off his forehead. The ghost soon arrived at the lounge and greeted the trio with a smile.
"Good morning you three! Halloween week has finally arrived~" <Small Ghost>
"G'Mornin! We're going to look around the school after this since we are done decorating. Let's go-" <Grim>
"WAIT A MINUTE!"
The three ghosts yelled in sync as it startled Grim and not the duo who just sat on the same couch as they watched their furry friend be surrounded by the ghosts as they had a mischievous grin plastered on their faces.
"W-What's wrong? What are you grinning for?"
Grim asked frantically as he backed away a little. The small ghost then explained to the ghost and to the duo who were seated on the couch.
"Actually..... We have some presents for you three." <Slim Ghost>
"Present?" <Grim>
"mhm, Here ya go!"
With that, the ghost surrounded the monster as Finn and Yuu sat on the couch as they watched their furry friend get surrounded by the ghost as a sudden bright light came out of nowhere as white smoke was also present. Once the smoke cleared, Grim coughed a little before noticing he was wearing a costume.
"Oh... Ohh... OHHHHH! Myhaha!, An almighty Halloween costume fitting for the Almighty Grim sama!"
Grim proudly said as he began looking at the outfit that he is now wearing. The monster looked at Finn and Yuu, who were both sitting on the couch looking his way as he questioned the duo about his costume in which the two happily replied.
"So, how do I look you two? Doesn't the Almighty Grim sama look dashing and cute in his Halloween costume?" <Grim>
"You lookin cool, Grim. The outfit makes you cute as well." <Yuu>
"Not to mention, the color scheme matches the outfit I made with Crewel Oji tan." <Finn>
"Oh that's right! Milady, where is your costume?"
When the ghost said that, Finnian Roselocks could only smirk as she brought out her magic pen and with a flick of the wrist, a string of magic started to circle around her and also Yuu as a white smoke engulfed the both of them. Once the smoke cleared, it revealed the two wearing the costumes that the latter made for her and Yuu to wear for this year's Halloween. One of the ghosts was awed at the sight of the duo's costumes.
_________________________________
<Both of them are wearing the same black boots>
<Puppeteer and Witch Doll>
<Yuu didn't wear the hat, but soon he will~>
_________________________________
"Wow, Milady and Yuu Kun.. both of look so stunning in those outfits~! "
The Chubby Ghost complimented the two as Yuu looked away, flustered as Finn curtsied to the ghost.
"Thank you! I really worked very hard on this... I even had to endure an entire hour lecture with Crewel Oji Tan, but at least everything worked out in the end, hehe. "
Finn giggled at the end of her sentence as the Chubby ghost patted her head.
"It looks great on you, especially Yuu kun! ... You look like a model in the outfit. "
"Yeah, I'm guessing Crewel Sensie insisted on my outfit looking like this, huh?"
Yuu said as he looked at his outfit, and Finn nods in response as she explained this to her friends in which their reactions were....
"Indeed, but I am also confused about why your father and him were debating over your outfit a few days ago."
"They were what?"
The ghosts and Yuu said in unison after hearing what Finn said about her Father and Crewel debating about Yuu's outfit.
<Yeah..they did...>
Grim on the other hand could only stomp his feet on the ground because all the attention went to the two.
"Ahem! Did you guys just forget about the great grim? like look at my outfit as well! "
Finn looked at him and giggled a little as she picks him up making the monster whine a little.
"Fgnyah! put me down, Finn!'
"You look adorable in your outfit.. could use a little bow in your witch hat, wait right here.. I might have the ribbon that could match mine."
"Really! well, if you say so.. then do as you please, as long as the ribbon could make people look and adore me when I walk by them!"
"Okay~ Okay~"
Finn said in her usual soft toned voice as she walked away with Grim's witch hat so she could put a ribbon on it. While the girl went to her room to put a ribbon on her friend's little witch hat. Yuu looks over to the ghosts and asked them on when did they prepared Grim's costume, their reponse was:
"We heard from your friends that the Ramshackle was the only dormitory that hadn't prepared costumes." <Skinny ghost>
"By Friends, you mean by...?" <Grim>
"You know, Those kids from the Hearstlabyul dorm, one with a heart on their face and the other with a spade.." <Chubby ghost>
"So Ace and Deuce told you guys-" <Yuu>
"You mean Ace and Deuce!?"
Grim exclaimed as he cut off Yuu's as the boy could only chuckle at this. The ghost then explained the reason why they used to make Grim's costumes and the reason why they did it as well, which made Yuu smile at the ghost as he thanked them for their hard work.
"Hey guys, sorry if I took so long on putting the ribbon on Grim's Hat... I forgot I didn't cleaned my room last night since I was doing the finishing touches on Me and Yuu chan's outfits. I might clean it later when the day is over......." <Finn>
"It is fine and you made Grim Kun's hat even better!" <Chubby Ghost>
"Oh..OH! IT LOOKS SO COOL NOW!"
Grim happily said as he jumps up and down as Finn looks at him with a little smile.
"I'm glad you like it even more, hehe~"
Finn said as she giggled in the end, making Yuu and the ghost look at her and smiled with little redness on their cheeks, making the latter look at them in confusion. Sooner or later, the Trio bid farewell as they leave the dorm to enjoy Night Raven College's Halloween week.

"Look Dad! There's Halloween stiff everywhere! "
A little girl said as she walked around the Heartslabyul's Halloween venue as her father smiled at her fondly as she wondered away a little as her father followed behind her.
"Indeed, and look over there. Those ghosts seemed to be having a lot of fun! "
Not long after, an orange male with leaf green eyes surprised the little girl from behind and so did a blue berry haired male with peacock green eyes.
<I had to search out this color because I was so curious and boy its a beautiful color.（*＾-＾*）>
"Boo! I'm a scary, jolly skeleton!"
Cater said as he held both his hands in the air as Deuce did the same, but in a cute way as he later asked the little girl if he was scared, but the little girl's response was not what he was hoping for as the latter giggled and said,
"You aren't scary at all.. hahaha!"
The little girl giggled as Deuce looked at the little girl in shock as Cater teased the latter.
"Deuce chan, you're so stiff and it's kinda cute honestly~♪"
"Ugh... I have no idea on how to handle kids..."
Deuce said as he looks away embarrassed as Cater pats the boy's back,
"It's okay Deuce chan, don't worry about it, just relax alright? You just gotta have fun!"
Cater said as he gave Deuce a thumbs up as he walked up to the little girl and asked if she went alone, to which the little girl replied that she went with her father, as she pointed to him who was standing away from them, and the father walked up to Cater as he went to his daughter's side.
"My daughter looks forward to Night Raven College's Halloween every year, and she seems to be having a lot of fun." <Little Girl's Father>
"Is that so, I am glad to hear it!" <Cater>
"Oh, is it alright if I get a photo of my Daughter and You together?"
The Father of the little girl asked as Cater nodded as he signals Deuce to and tell him about the Father's request in which the latter eye's sparked with joy as he looked at the man.
"Go ahead! We'd love to!" <Deuce>
"Deuce chan is happy again.." <Cater>
"Thank you very much! This will surely make a good memory down the road. Get close now dear."
The father said as the daughter nodded as she stood in the middle of the two heartslabyul students as the two crouched down to her height.
"Get close now... There we go.. Three, Two one.. say Happy Halloween!"
"Happy Halloween!" <Deuce, Cater and The Little Girl>
The three said it in sync as the father of the little girl took the photo of them. Somewhere in Night Raven College's building, inside of the Mirror Chambers, Epel is entertaining the guests that have entered the venue. One couple approached the lavender-haired boy,
"Um, excuse me, could we get a stamp for the stamp rally, please?"
The women said as Epel turned towards their attention as he nodded and asked for their stamp sheet.
"Here you are. This is a stamp for the Mirror Cha-"
Epel paused for a second before fumbling with his as he cleared his throat as he acted like a "mean" vampire.
<I find Epel quite adorable in his Halloween outfit.>
"To even think about entering the vampire's lair on your own... prepare to become my servant for all eternity! Groaaar!"
Epel said as he lets out a roar after his statement.
"Ahhh, what a scary vampire!"
The couple said in sync, which made Epel scratch the back of his neck in embarrassment as he put both his hands behind his back.
"Ahaha. This is a little embarrassing, I guess? Our school is really big, so please take your time going around."
"Thank you, it's a lot of fun collecting the stamps." <Women>
"Yeah, This is our first time coming to see an NRC Halloween and I am really glad we decided to visit this year. I didn't think that the Halloween in NRC would be this grand! " <Man>
"And this Mirror Chamber is so pretty. It's beautiful, I don't think I'll ever forget this."
The woman said as she looked around the Mirror Chamber, as Epel snickered a little, but he soon realized his actions as he fumbled with his words a little, making the couple look at him in confusion.
"Oops, sorry about that, what I mean is.. Thank you! I hope you get to see the wonders of Night Raven College as you collect all seven stamps. Happy Halloween!"
Epel said as he brought out both of his hands as the couple greeted him 'Happy Halloween' as well before walking away, as Epel was soon called by another guest as he entertained them as well. Vil, on the other hand, was watching from afar.
"Epel seems to be dealing with the visitors well, which means no problems here, either... It is important that the Halloween Committee doesn't let its guard down. Where should I check next? "
The latter then began to look around, and there he saw a boy who seemed to be lost,
"Hm? That little boy....he has been standing there for quite some time now...."
Vil approached the little boy and greeted the boy as he crouched down a little as he asked the boy in a soft voice so that he wouldn't frighten him since he was wearing a costume of a blood sucking vampire.
"Hello there, did you come here by yourself?" <Vil>
"No... I came with my big brother, but suddenly, he was gone.."
The little boy answered as he began to cry in front of Vil,
"So you got separated from your brother, right? well there's no need to worry, I'll take you to see your brother right away."
Vil said as he stands up and dusting his dress as the little boy rubs his eyes as he looks at the latter.
"*sniff* Really, you will help me find my big brother?"
"Oh, my... Are you doubting the words of this magnificent vampire? Now just punishment should I give such a rude child....? Ah, of course. I'll turn you into my meal! Graaar!!"
Vil said as he acted like a "mean" vampire in front of the little boy, making him laugh as the latter stopped crying because of what the Pomifiore Dorm Leader did.
"Hahaha. You're not scary if you smile!"
The little boy said with a smile as Vil chuckles as he lends out his hand towards the boy and said,
"There we go. If you're coming to see my Halloween, I can't let you go home with a frown plastered on your face. Now let's get you to the headmaster's office. We'll let your family know where you are using our PA system. "
"Okay!" <Little Boy>
"I'll tell you some interesting stories about the school while we wait for your brother... You have to better keep them a secret though." <Vil>
"I will! and Thank you!"
The little boy answered as he takes Vil's hand as Vil showed the boy a smile as the two begin to walk towards the exit, but before that he informed Rook before they went on their way to the Headmaster's Office. As the two were walking and talking, a voice called out to Vil.
"Vil kun!"
The latter knew straight away who it was, by the tone itself as it belongs to a certain Roselocks, It was non other than,
"Hm?.. Oh, Mary Ann senpai."
Vil said as he turned towards Mary Ann as she was walking towards them. As she wears a white hood, black pants and black sneakers. The latter had a face mask on,
<Go. To. Sleep.>
"Nice outfit senpai... um.. what are you?"
Her junior asked as Mary Ann looked at the little boy as she squinted her eyes and remove her mask to reveal... her mouth slit into a wide smile as the little boy tilted his head as his mouth agape. Vil however, was...
"Senpai, please... cover your mouth.. you look terrifying..."
"Thank you!"
Mary Ann answered in a sing-song tone as her junior could only have a sweat drop on his cheek.
<Like mother, Like daughter...>
The girl turned towards to the little boy and smiled at him and asked the latter as he responded with a smile on his face,
"Are you afraid of me.. Boy?"
"..Nope! You look like you have a big smile!" <Little boy>
"I sure do.. hehe~♪" <Mary Ann>
"Senpai.. please cover your mouth... you may have not scared him but sooner you might scare others..." <Vil>
"Good point, and also its a good way to hide from paparazzies."
Mary Ann said as she put on her mask once more as Vil could only sigh.
"I assume you came here to see your Little sister.. correct?"
Vil asked as the latter nodded,
"Ofcourse, I wanna be part of her first Halloween without her wearing a invisible hood over her head..."
"Invisible hood...?" <Vil>
"Um, anyways.. where are you going.. leaving your venue, Vil kun?" <Mary Ann>
"Oh, *Ahem* I am going to the headmaster's office so that we could contact his parents."
Vil explained to his senior as she nodded.
"I might as well join you, since.. I do not know where Finn's location is at the moment.. so..."
"You want to tag along.. don't you?"
Vil said with as he looks at her senior who nodded.
"Fine... just don't take off your mask, your Make-up is already terrifying and it might scare some guests visiting the campus."
"I think I overdid it.. actually..to be honest.."
"Yey! Miss smiles is joining us!" <Little Boy"
"Mhm, let's go~! by the way what's your name?" <Mary Ann>
"My name is Teucer!"
"Nice to meet you Teucer!" <Mary Ann>
"I swear... I still can't process the thought she and seedling are actually related...." <Vil>
And thus Mary Ann joined his junior as he and her walked towards the direction of the Headmaster's office while telling the little boy stories.
<Heheh, see what I did there.>

Walking the main street of Night Raven College, the Ramshackle Trio awed at the sight of the guest entering and exiting the school campus as some were looking at the great seven statues while others were taking selfies for memories of their visit.
" 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!"
Grim said in a happy tone, Yuu looked over to Finn who was hugging his arm and knowing Finn who hates huge crowds, it's understandable why she was clingy on him like a bear cub.
"Adorable.."
Just as he was about to ask Finn if she was alright, he heard a very familiar voice calling out a certain nickname.. and he knew right away who it was,
"Ah, It's Shrimpy, Sealie and Iruka chan~! Happy Halloween!"
It was Floyd and he was with Jamil and Ace, as they approached them. Grim then greeted the trio,
"Happy Halloween! Hehe, check it out, I'm already a Halloween pro!"
"Yo, you three. See you've all gotten dressed up for todays occasion."
Ace said as he looked at the trio, Grim then told the latter about him telling the ghost that he didn't have a costume have a costume as Ace replies to this,
"It's not a big deal, y'know? Me and Deuce were just joking about how it seemed like you guys were going to have a bit of a lonely Halloween.. and by pure coincidence! We were in front of the Ramshackle dorm when we said it, too. So if you want to thank anyone, thank the ghosts for making these costumes for you. "
"Speaking of costumes, Shrimpy's outfit looks like he could model... and Iruka chan as well~"
Floyd said as he approached the two ramshackle human residents as Finn hid behind Yuu while looking at the tall second year.
"Yeah... that's because Finn made the outfits with the help of Crewel sensei."
"It's actually obvious, knowing Jasmine's style of clothing... he would be wearing a coat right now." <Jamil>
_________________________________
<Note!: This is like the case with Azul calling Finn "Sea Pearl".. Jamil will begin to call her this on a certain Scarabia Episode but this nickname will only once or thrice in an episode.. ahem.. Pomifiore Episode.. as Finn will refer to him by his last name and so does he with her last name. The nickname is there but it won't appear very much often.>
_________________________________
"I would agree with you right there, Viper senpai.. Crewel sensei had to lecture me a couple of times before I got the final draft of the outfit....ahaha."
Finn replied as she laughed at the end, making the Scarabia dorm head sweat drop. He then turned his attention towards Yuu and Grim,
"So, you three came here to see this weeks Halloween celebrations and events?"
Jamil asked, as Grim replied,
"Yup. We went around to all seven of the venues and then suddenly it was lunch time, What were you lot doing?"
"Oh, we're just heading back from basketball practice. We finished early, so.. and it's the first day of Halloween Week, after all! " <Ace>
"The first years were so distracted, I'm not sure why we even bothered trying." <Jamil>
"Viper senpai... you're lying..."
Finn said with her usual tired eyes as she pointed at the latter as he flinched,
"Yeah, Finn's right! You're one to talk. don't act like you weren't checking your phone throughout practice? You were worried about how Scarabia's venue was doing, weren't you?"
Ace said with a smug look as Jamil could only sigh in defeat and explained his side of the story in defense on what the Auburn boy just said.
"That's... uh.. I just thought it was important for me to be available in case Kalim contacted me saying he'd messed something up."
"Y'all really do love Halloween, dontcha? To be fair, so do I."
Floyd said with a smile while looking at the others as they sweat dropped.
"So Shrimpy and Iruka chan, whose Halloween did you think was the best. Your answer's Octavinelle right? Because the venue is scary, and creepy as it is the most Halloweeny among the rest!" <Floyd>
"Huh?" <Yuu"
"Don't scare them into giving an answer. Scarabia's theme is more sublime." <Jamil>
"Wait.. guys... hold on a minute-" <Yuu>
"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!" <Ace>
"Right?!"
All three of the basketball club members said in sync as Yuu and Finn look at each other for a moment and then look back at them as the two answered differently.
"Well, If you guys really want an answer... the truth is.. I can't choose." <Yuu>
"My answer is the same is Yuu chan... I too can't choose which dorm is the best.. maybe the best answer is that all dorms are-"
"What? both of your answers are so boring." <Floyd>
"Eh?" <Yuu>
"Pardon?" <Finn>
Yuu and Finn looked at Floyd in confusion to what Floyd said as Ace joined the conversation as he gets behind the two as he puts both of his hands on their shoulders.
"Man, It's difficult saying my dorm's better in front of your senior, don't worry, I getcha." <Ace>
"Even if that were true, you haven't the foggiest idea what modesty mean, don't you two?"
Jamil said as he crossed his arms while looking at the two ramshackle residents as Yuu and Finn could only look at them with a sweat drop on both of their cheeks.
"You guys are taking this way too seriously. Don't need to get that upset about it." <Grim>
"I didn't signed up for this position I am in right now..." <Finn>
"Same here..." <Yuu>
"You two don't have to be considerate just because he's your classmate." <Jamil>
"Yeah, yeah. Just say Octavinelle's the best!"
"You guys are really desperate to get an answer from the both of us huh?"
"As expected of you guys... and after all, this is Night Raven College's time.."
Finn said as she stops hiding behind Yuu but soon was backed hugged by Floyd as she lets out a sigh.
"You are right, Night Raven College's prestige is riding on Halloween." <Jamil
"It's like what sensei's said, Locals of the island come to visit but so do those from the outside."
"From the outside?"
Grim asked Ace as the latter explained how the locals and students of the College can get into Sage Island as it shocked Grim a little upon learning the the island where Night Raven college was in the middle of no where.
<Seriously... fr, fr.. in the middle of the sea...>
"We're that in the middle of nowhere?!" <Grim>
"At least call it mysterious."
"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 to the public eye, it's going to cause all kinds of icky problems. " <Floyd>
"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 is that....."
"Oh my.." <Finn, said in an exaggerated voice as possible>
"There's more?" <Grim>
"I think I know where this is going...in 3, 2...1.." <Finn>
"We just want people to say our dorm's the best!"
The three of them said in sync as Finn felt Floyd's gaze as she heard him say this making her look at him with her tired eyes as she replied.
"I will get you to say my Dorm's the best Iruka chan~!" <Floyd>
"Ehhhh..." <Finn>
"Why dos everyone at our school gotta be so prideful?" <Grim>
"Get used to it Grim.. get used to it..." <Yuu>
"Everyone in each of the dorms has joined hands to make their Halloween venues 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?" <Jamil>
"Yeah, yeah. We gotta act cool and stuff, y'know.. to not cause-"
Floyd was cut off when someone bumped behind him as he was still back hugging Finn in which also shield the latter from the sudden impact as there was a loud thud as a groan was heard afterwards.
"Ow!" <Little Girl>
"A little girl just came flying right straight towards you."
Grim said as Floyd turned his head to see a little girl on the ground as she tried to stand up, Floyd then stopped hugging Finn as he looked down at the kid and said,
"Whoa, you're so tiny! I thought a little fish had come up and try to tickle me."
This itself frightened the little child as she backed away from him as she apologized to him in a stuttering voice.
"I-I-I'm so... I'm sorry for bumping into you..! Umm.. uh.."
"Floyd, with that height of yours.. you're practically scaring the kid." <Jamil>
"Yeah... Just imagine having him towering over me is giving me the shivers.." <Ace>
"Says the one who is much taller than me... You all look giants to me except for Grim, Ortho, Epel and Vanrouge san."
Finn said in a blank faced expression as she looks at Ace with her arms crossed as the Auburn boy flinched to what she said.
<Ortho[148'], Epel[156'], Lilia[158'] and Grim is 70cm.. Finn be really proud of being that tall is so adorable..>
"What, you serious? Sorry, sorry... wait.. I will just do this.."
With that Floyd crouched down to the height of the little girl who had her face covered with her tiny hands.
"Hey, now.. don't be afraid little fishie, I am sorry I frightened you.."
"*sniff* *sniff* I-I forgive you..*sniff* I was just... Um... I can't find it.. " <Little Girl>
"Can't find it?" <Finn>
"Are you searching for something?" <Jamil>
"Are you lost or something?" <Ace>
"No.. it's not like that... I was looking for the place to go to say I finished the stamp rally." <Little Girl>
The Little girl explained as the others nodded,
"Ah, You mean the place where you hand in your stamp sheet?" <Ace>
"Ah, I know where that is.. C'mere and I'll show you the way."
Floyd said as he extended his hand to the little girl as she took it, and the two began to walk ahead while the others trailed behind him and having little conversations on the way. When they arrived at the school's front gate, they noticed Jade standing behind a table, giving and taking paper stamps from students.
"Jaaaaaddeee~"
Floyd called out to his brother, as Jade turned his head towards his direction as he smiled and greeted him.
"Oh, Floyd. Good day, hm? It seems you've brought quite the crowd with you."
Floyd then looked at the little girl holding his hand and pointed at Jade.
"Give your stamp to him." <Floyd>
"Okay!" <Little Girl>
"Hm?" <Jade>
"This little fishie was lookin' for you." <Floyd>
"Yes. I collected all seven stamps!"
The little girl said with a smile,
"I see. You were participating in the stamp rally, Then may I see your stamp card?"
Jade asked the little girl as she brings out her stamp card and showed it to Jade.
"Wonderful! All stamps are here, plain as day. May I hear the password?"
"Of course! Trick or Treat!"
"The password has been correctly stated."
Jade smiled as the little girl clapped and giggled in delight. Grim then turned to the others and asked what 'Trick or Treat' meant, and Ace explained it to him as the monster recalls Lilia saying that phrase before. Ace went on to explain that the phrase came from a legend that said if you gave treats to a ghost tricking people on Halloween, they'd disappear.
"Also, if you dress up as a monster and go around your neighborhood saying trick or treat, you get tons of sweets." <Ace>
"What!? I've never heard of an incantation like that's so useful before!"
Grim exclaimed,
"Right? I remeber when I was a kid and I was going around with my brother, we'd go around the neighborhood three times."
"Really now?"
"...that sure sounds fun...I never got to experience that as a kid. since, I am always at home and I could only experience events up-close with an invisible hood on.." <Finn>
<I'm not cryin.... o(TヘTo) >
"The story of Halloween differs a bit depending on race and region, but strangely, the one thing that every race has in common is that one phrase." <Jamil>
"And that's why we're usin' it as the password for the stamp rally."
Floyd said. Jade then handed the little girl a bag of treats as he takes the little girl's stamp card.
"Here you are, miss. A present for doing your best to gather all those stamps."
"Yaaay, I got a treat! Thank you, mister!"
"Fufu, You're welcome. Makes sure to go home and show it to the adults first before eating it, It would be terrible if you happened to be allergic. Can you promise me that?"
Jade said as the little girl answered with a smile that she promised, she further asked if she can come back and participate again on the stamp rally in which Jamil answered that she can, following Jade telling her that she should bring her friends next time as Floyd just said she can do whatever she wants with that the Little girl runs off.
"You all kinda seem used to dealing with kids, Huh?"
Ace said as he looks at his senpais as Floyd and Jamil replied,
"Why wouldn't we be? It's not the first time we had to deal with little fishies." <Floyd>
"We did do something similar last yea, as well. I'm sure you'll end up getting used to it, too." <Jamil>
"Is that so... To be honest, I actually kind of started thinkin' to myself that dealing with people from outside the school for a whole week would be a pain but giving it more thought... getting to experience something like this once a year might not be bad. Besides, the amount of homework the teachers give us during Halloween Week is so much less than regular classes!"
Ace said with a grin on his face as Jade chuckles as he replies in which made Jamil look at him weirdly,
"That is certainly true, I adore a Halloween in which I'm surrounded by smiling faces of our customers." <Jade>
"None of that sounded innocent.."
Yuu then look towards Finn's direction who seems to have disappeared,
"Hm.. where did she go?"
Yuu thought, and as he was about to go loo for her, he heard his name being called by Jamil.
"Yuu, hurry up or we'll leave you behind. we're going to have lunch."
"Oh, okay.. be right there!"
Yuu replied as he walks towards their direction as the latter questioned to himself before meeting up with the others to grab a bite.
"Where did you go, Finn?"
<Yuu told them about Finn wondering off before they ate so they will find her after they grab a bite...They will eventually..>
