“i feel like this is a little predictable. i mean, with the red hair and all.” she spoke, looking at her reflection in the mirror whilst dressed as the iconic underwater disney princess. “and the flounder and sebastian plush is kind of extra. not that i’m not extra, but this is like next level.” kahlan knew she’d pull off ariel, but was she willing to take the easy route on her halloween costume? “i’m gonna keep thinking about it.” she spoke toward the store clerk. they nodded, headed off, and kahlan continued to observe herself in the mirror, deep in thought.

halloween was nearly a week away and braison hadn’t made any plans. he would most likely be working at sullivan’s . but he didn’t want to be the scrooge of halloween so here he was finding a last minute costume. it sucked being the “new kid” because he couldn’t get anyone’s opinion on what he should wear. brai suddenly got distracted by a redheaded girl across the shop. he took in her appearance, the kid in him coming out. the resemblance between her and ariel was uncanny. it put a small on his face. without thinking, he cleared his throat and took a few steps towards her. “the costume looks great. but if you want to look um, less predictable you should go for another iconic redhead. beverly marsh, blossom, poison ivy..” he trailed off and leaned against a rack of costumes. he only hoped he wasn’t too forward by just sticking himself in a stranger’s business.
