Cannibalistic Halloween
Happy Inkwell eating gummy worms in a dark corner of the basement.
Suddenly, the clicking of talons on the basement steps is heard going down the stairs, followed by the sound of a heavy thud on a table as the talons pass by Happy, unaware of his presence.
Happy is watching.
A black bag is on the table and Walter Leech is standing on the other side, he pulls...something out. The sound of wet eating noises begin filling the quiet basement.
Happy Inkwell runs to Tyler.
Tyler Dream: What's the matter, sweetie?
Tyler asks as he kneels and hugs Happy.
Happy Inkwell: Grandpa Walter is eating people!! Scary!!
Tyler Dream: Nooo...sweetie, you must have misunderstood. Are you sure he wasn't eating candy?
Happy Inkwell: Candy doesn't make wet noise.
Tyler Dream: Are you sure it wasn't gushy candy? Or mangos? Yummm.
Tyler tries comforting Happy.
Happy Inkwell: It was scary!
Tyler Dream: It's okay, sweetie. Want to go trick-or-treating? You don't need to think about the scary.
Happy Inkwell: ... I went out with Unca Buddy earlier.
Tyler Dream: Awww.
Tyler pouts, seemingly a little disappointed and envious.
Happy Inkwell cries.
Tyler Dream: No no no. Don't cry.
Tyler rubs Happy's back.
Happy Inkwell: I'm a bad boy! This is the last time daddy will be able to take me to trick or treating!!
Happy is crying.
Tyler Dream: You're not a bad boy. Why wouldn't I be able to take you trick or treating?
Happy Inkwell: Because they don't give candy to thirteen year olds and I'm twelve.
Tyler Dream: I thought you were seven?
Happy: I'm twelve.
Tyler Dream: Since when?...How long have we been here?
Happy Inkwell panicked.
Tyler Dream: Don't panic, it's just...probably a side effect of being in this world.
