[pengeen]

Characters: Yuuto von Kidou and you!!
Setting: October 12th! Around the Tower.
Format: Action 4ever but I'll follow!! I suck at prose though as a warning.
Summary: Trick-or-Treat!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also he's being a grumpy-grump feel free to pick on him.
Warnings: Irritated Vampire Kidou being unamused with the tower and cranky (also because I'm awesome tags will come from vampenguin for this event!! Vampire icons aww yeah)

[So he's not entirely looking for candy. He's just picking up candy as he sees it while going about his business throughout the tower. He's kind of embarrassed to have to collect candy... it's a bit childish to him. He never really celebrated Halloween after he was adopted into the Kidou family, and he couldn't remember if he did anything special for it when he still lived with his biological parents... Either way, he was pretty sure dressing up and getting candy was something that was meant for kids.


So, he seems a bit angry when he picks up candies and places them in his bucket, letting out exasperated sighs every now and then.

At least he wasn't the only one in costume....]

After noticing this girl was talking to him, Kidou offers her a small smile.

"It's going alright... looking for candy like this isn't really something I want to be doing right now, but since it was set up by the administrators, it can't really be helped."

He looks into his little bucket for a moment before turning his attention back to the girl.

"I don't think I've seen you around the tower before, are you a new arrival?"

[tohko_amano]

"Yeah..I guess being forced to do this isn't good. Especially when you die, but the small amount of joy you get when finding a piece of candy is nice. And if you can find enough candy, you can avoid death, so that's good."

Tohko noticed another piece of candy on the floor, and she quickly picked it up and put it in her bucket before replying.

"Yes. I'm the book girl, Tohko Amano. Who are you, if you don't mind my asking?"

[vampenguin]

"A lot of things here are 'do it or die', it's something you start to get used to."

He sighs and crosses his arms over his chest.

"Kidou Yuuto. It's a pleasure to meet you, Tohko."

[tohko_amano]

"I guess so.." Tohko sighed. That sounded pretty horrid, but since you didn't technically die here, it might have been alright. Maybe.

"Nice to meet you too, Kidou...oh! Did you want that piece of candy? I'll give it to you." Without another word, Tohko put the piece into Kidou's bucket. It looked like he needed it more. Besides, she was being rather lucky with the candy today.

[vampenguin]

"Ah... you don't have to give me any of your candy." She's the second person today to give him some of their candy... he can't help but wonder why.

[tohko_amano]

"Oh well. What's done is done. Besides, I can find some more later on. You looked a little empty-handed." Tohko smiled.

[vampenguin]

"Well.. thank you." Perhaps he should step up his candy game before it got too late...

"So, Tohko, how long have you been in the Tower?" He tilts his head slightly.

[tohko_amano]

"Hey, no problem. If you want to go candy-hunting together, I'd be happy to join you. If you wanted." Tohko scratched her head. "I've been in here..since the fifth. How about you?"

[vampenguin]

He smiles, though it looks almost sad.

"March twenty fifth."

[tohko_amano]

"That's a long time.." Noticing that Kidou looked a little sad, Tohko grew worried.

"Hey, are you alright? What's wrong?"

[vampenguin]

"Just thinking."

Has he really been here for so long? It feels like he just arrived only a month ago..

"Anyway, 6 months isn't long compared to how long others have been here."

[tohko_amano]

"Ah, alright then.." Tohko wasn't sure that was the case, but she would let it go. It wasn't good to pry into people's wounds.

"I suppose that's true..but for me, it sounds like a long time."

[vampenguin]

"It sounds like a long time, but it doesn't really feel like it, to be honest."

He lets out a sigh.

"Anyway, have you met anyone familiar here yet?"

[tohko_amano]

"I guess not." And now, it was Tohko's turn to sigh and look sad. "I haven't, to be honest. I was hoping to run into a friend of mine here, but it doesn't look like he's here. It's a shame too. He wrote some tasty stories back when I knew him.."

[vampenguin]

He sees her looking sad, and looks to the floor for a second before smiling again at her.

"Well, he might not be here now, but you never know when he might arrive. This Tower is a bit scary, but it can do some pretty great things."

[tohko_amano]

"That's true." Tohko replied with a small smile. "He might show up out of the blue one of these days. And when he does, he'll have to write me a bunch of stories for making me worry so much!"
