[Connor can be grotesquely and disgustingly adorable sometimes, when he's not eating tylenol. Hank watches this whole scenario like its a show all on its own.]

Costumes and candy really are the important part. Then I gotta think up some scary stories- I guess we'll listen to that recording I did for the radio too.

[Connor will listen to that, right? He doesn't care that much about other people doing it, he just wants Connor too.]

[plasticasshole]

I'd like to listen to it.

[Connor just likes any excuse to hear Hank's voice.]

Have you had any rest yet? You should sleep a little before we leave again.

[sociallychallenged]

And miss you going out and doing Halloween stuff? Not a chance. I'll bitch about being tired later and deal with it now.

[He gets up out of the chair he's sitting in, collecting his things.]

Come on. Let's go out. See if there's anything festive you wanna do in town. [And he'll try to grab a book of scary stories or something.]

[plasticasshole]

If you’re certain.

[Connor gets up too, followed by the small army of pokemon dressed as Slowpoke.]

Are all of the pokemon coming?

[He knows Crockett is, and Buntz answers for himself by climbing up on Connor’s shoulder.]

[sociallychallenged]

I put Dame up for a while. And Cagney. But these three always get to go.

[Tubbs, Hunter, and Luann are up for their pokemon Slowpoke adventure. Woody, however, picks up one of the bags of candy and holds it up to Connor.]

I think he wants some.

[Hank says. And vaguely wonders if Woody remembers trick or treating.]

[plasticasshole]

[Connor takes the bag and opens it for the pokemon, taking a piece and handing it to Buntz before trying some himself. He then feeds some to Woody, before petting him.]

I’ll just bring Crockett and Buntz, then. And I’ll swap Lacey out for Patches.

[He puts the Growlithe back in her pokeball so he can swap her out for the Pumpkaboo at the PokeCenter.]

[sociallychallenged]

Lead the way. [Hank says, following after. Woody is probably the most eager, rushing around like a kid and looking at everyone's Halloween decorations. He's no different at the Pokecenter, trying to steal pine cones and tiny pumpkins from displays. Hank's having to stop him over and over, before he sees the Pumpkaboo taken out.]

[It might as well be love at first sight.]

[He reaches his little arms for her, wanting to pick her up and carry her so badly.]

She'll kick your ass if you're not being polite. [Hank warns him.]

[plasticasshole]

[The Pumpkaboo is a large lady, floating by Connor and making a curious “boo?” sound at Woody. She drifts over to him though, and repeats herself. She’s twice the size of the Phantump so when he reaches for her she floats a little as he carries her, making it easier for him.

Connor realises he needs to get a Slowpoke outfit for Patches as well.]

They seem to get on well already.

[sociallychallenged]

So did Kermit and Miss Piggy. Sometimes things play out that way. [He pats Woody's head, even if his face is pressed up against the Pumpkaboo's side in his attempt to "carry" her.]

She's a whole lot of woman so be careful not to bump into anything with her.

[And then to Connor.]

Alright. Let's go see some Halloween things. I wonder if they do the fake haunted houses here or if they're pokemon themed.

[plasticasshole]

[Connor gives Hank a clueless look at the muppets reference, before leading the way back out of the center and onto the street. He’s preoccupied with watching Woody and Patches, so he nearly falls over a Slowpoke on the way out.]

I would assume everything is pokemon themed, but we can look. Patches needs a costume, though.
