hueningkai: "Close your eyes."

soobin: "Okay."

hueningkai: "Are they closed?"

soobin: "Yes."

hueningkai: "Alright. This is a costume lottery. Whatever your eyes land on first will be your costume."

y/n: "Is this a good idea?"

hueningkai: "It'll be fine. Okay, 1, 2, 3... open."

soobin: "....I landed on a Bugs Bunny costume."

hueningkai: "Hm.... okay, let's try again."

y/n: "I'm going to look through some other aisles. I'll be back."

hueningkai: "Sure."

(walking)

store associate: "Hello."

y/n: "Hi."

store associate: "Can I help you look for something in particular?"

y/n: "I'm looking for a Halloween costume. Anything will do, really."

store associate: "But Halloween is a special holiday. Equally as important as Christmas and New Year's."

y/n: "Um... well, when you put it that way..."

store associate: "Let me help you choose a great costume."

y/n: "I'm kind of in a time crunch."

store associate: "That's alright. I'll help you quickly. Can you do a spin?"

y/n: "Pardon?"

store associate: "A little twirl so that I can assess your current look and see what type of costume would fit you best."

y/n: "Um... okay..." (twirls)

store associate: "Two options. We can either do..." (searches through rack) "...this one."

y/n: "Oh."

store associate: "Or... this one."

y/n: "Oh."

store associate: "Now, the choice is up to you, of course. But may I recommend option number two?"

y/n: "I was leaning towards that one a lot more too, actually..."

store associate: (smiles) "The dressing rooms are that way. Let me know if you need any assistance in finding other costumes."

y/n: "Thank you so much." 

(goes to dressing room)

hueningkai: "This could be the one!"

soobin: "Iron Man?"

hueningkai: "Yes."

soobin: "Could I really be Iron Man?"

hueningkai: "Hey, behind the mask, you could be anybody you want to be."

soobin: "Anyone I want to be, huh? How much is this thing again?"

hueningkai: "It's less than twenty bucks. Now, go try it on!" 

soobin: "Okay."

(walks to dressing room)

y/n: "Ugh... I can't get this thing to zip..."

soobin: (chuckles) "Iron Man... he's crazy..."

y/n: "Kai? Is that you?"

soobin: "[y/n]?"

y/n: "Oh, thank god." (opens curtain) "Can you help me... agh!"

soobin: "Agh!"

y/n: "Oh my god... I-I'm sorry, I thought you were--"

soobin: "No, I'm sorry, I-I should have walked... slower..."

(long silence)

y/n: "W-where's Kai?"

soobin: "Um... he's still looking for his own costume." (clears throat) "That, uh... I mean, it looks good. Your costume."

y/n: "You think so?"

soobin: "Yeah. Weren't we just watching A Cinderella Story?"

y/n: (nervously laughs) "Exactly. Now I just need a mask, right?"

soobin: "Right. Did you... I mean..." (coughs) "Did you need help zipping that up or...?"

y/n: "No!" (clears throat) "No, that's okay. I can do it myself."

soobin: "But you were calling for Kai?"

y/n: "Um, yeah. He's helped me zip up my dresses before."

soobin: "Oh."

y/n: "I mean, it's nothing weird for us."

soobin: "Right."

y/n: "Okay. Well, uh, I'm gonna try to zip this up now, so..."

soobin: "Right. Right, I'm gonna just..."

y/n: "Yeah."

soobin: "Cool."
