Okay so....I know it's a bit early to think about this--but, better to get a head start on this than to have it sneak up on you.

Does this place do anything for Halloween? Or for the month of October? I know it could be different in other worlds, but where I'm from there's trick-or-treating, people dressed up in costumes, and loads of candy.

There's also spooky and scary stuff, but I'm not really thinking about that.

[No, she's just thinking about the candy, and the costumes and the other fun things that can happen--but mainly it's the candy.

Oh, and movie marathons about wizards and witches.]

If anyone could let me know, that'll be great! Thanks!

Well, you can always come work on it at our house, so there's that.

[Richard would never invite him there.]

Yeah she's here. She goes by Val!

[thestoriesarereal]

Mmm, there's that, but I mean...he is a trickster and very smart...so we'll have to be careful.

[Sneaky Lucy!]

Do you think she could help? Or, if I could talk to her--well, why would a Valkyrie want to talk to a kid--but that's so cool!

[11calls]

I honestly don't know, but it can't hurt to try, I guess?

Either way, we can definitely do the black suit he's always wearing, unless you want something different than that.

[thestoriesarereal]

If she knows him, then she could give us pointers at least?

I was thinking something different...not something so ... [What's the word?] Adult--and modern. I was thinking something that's more traditional--like what he'd wear in Asgard? I mean...aren't there pictures of him in something other than a suit?

[11calls]

I'm sure there are somewhere. If nothing else, maybe we can ask Thor for some?

[thestoriesarereal]

[Lucy thinks for a moment.]

Do you think Thor would tell Loki our plan? Or, do you think he'll be okay with it? I wouldn't want his feelings to get hurt that no one wants to dress up like him.

[11calls]

No, I don't think that he would tell and I think he'll probably be amused rather than having his feelings hurt, honestly.

He's pretty jovial.

[thestoriesarereal]

You sure? I mean, he's a god.....how can you tell he won't be upset?

[11calls]

Because it's not insulting, it's sweet. And he's an adult.

[If he gets mad it's on him.]

Do you want me to ask him?

[Alex Reagan gives no fucks.]

[thestoriesarereal]

...He kind of acts more like a big kid? Or he's just really that happy.

[There's a pause as she thinks about it.]

I think it might be better if we ask together...if that's okay?

[11calls]

Yeah, that would be perfect actually, Lucy.

[It's harder to say 'no' to such an adorable kid than annoyingly persistent reporter.]
