[In one of the actual dressing rooms in the Dressing Room, there are dozens of articles of clothes strewn across the floor. At the end of the trail of crumpled clothing, there's an Aqua standing in front of a mirror with her head turned over her shoulder to inspect how her backside looks in this firefighter costume.]

I look like a bumblebee.

[She murmurs this to herself, already slipping back out of the costume. It becomes another discarded piece of clothing on the floor, and she turns to search through many remaining costumes on the racks.]

[Try not to be too alarmed when you see your brother sticking his head through the curtain, looking for a dressing room of his own. At least it's not too creepy, because he does jump back with a loud yelp, covering his eyes and falling backwards into a rack of costumes nearby.]

[Hearing the yelp, she whirls around, eyes finding Demyx's feet sticking from behind the clothing. She bends down, picking up top hat and holding it in front of her chest to try to cover herself up somewhat.]

Geez, Demyx. Don't you know better than to go perving around dressing rooms?

[Terra's not in a costume yet, either. He hasn't really thought about what he should wear, it didn't cross his mind til he found this place.]

[he's sort of browsing when he hears her voice.]

... Aqua?

[She freezes for a moment.]

Terra? Where are you?

[She pushes the costumes hanging on the rack apart to peek through to the other side, quickly side-stepping just in case he's actually in view.]

[Well. He's not in view of that, but he's there. And he's smart enough to know she's probably not dressed, so he's not going to try to find her.]

I'm over here, looking at some of the costumes.

Me too. Just a minute...

[Aqua's quickly pulling on the closest thing (http://www.spirithalloween.com/images/spirit/products/interactivezoom/processed/07049851.interactive.a.jpg) to her. She figures it's some sort of prisoner get-up from the stripes, but she doesn't seem to be aware of the accusations made by her hat as she steps out from under the rack of clothing, peering from this side to that to try to find Terra.]

[Well, he's not hard to spot. He's by the rack, looking at something while she gets dressed and comes out in--]

[--oh jesus.]

... Uhh... Aqua?

What?

[She tilts her head to look at the costume she put on, and her hat falls off of her head because of it. She picks it up, running her fingers over that red lettering she hadn't taken the time to notice before.]

Oh.

[Now she's chucking the hat at his head, like it's somehow his fault. Judging from the mildly embarrassed but mostly good-natured smile, though, she doesn't mean anything by it.]

MY EYES.

[More screeching and flailing around to cover his eyes.]

THE HELL, AQUA, JUST GO BEHIND THE CURTAIN AGAIN, JESUS CHRIST.
And I wasn't pervin' around, neither.

[His head jerks back, but he's still hit. He makes a face, catching the hat as it falls, and shoots a look in her direction that quickly turns to a smile.]

So, you're looking for a costume?

[When did her brother become such a spaz? Aqua rolls her eyes, laughing it off.]

Okay, okay. Calm down.

[She turns and slips back behind the curtain of the dressing room. She pulls a costume (http://www.spirithalloween.com/images/spirit/products/processed/00510347.zoom.a.jpg) off the hanger, stepping into it.]

Yeah, and this one isn't going to cut it. Want to help me find a good one? I'll help you too.

[Aqua moves past him, searching through the rack for a moment before pulling out a pretty simple costume (http://d2weypz2veqqsi.cloudfront.net/700/22283.jpg) clearly inspired by a jungle man or sorts. She holds it up against Terra, bursting into laughter.]

Ew, how is that any better?

[Snort.]

You're trying to get candy not...I dunno...the guy handing it out...

[Lame joke is lame. BUT HE'S A LITTLE SHAKEN UP RIGHT NOW.]

It's not that bad, is it?

[She turns on the spot to show it off.]

It doesn't show anything.

Well it's not bad but...I dunno, I bet you could find a better one. Like...this!

[He'll stifle some giggles as he holds this (http://www.bridesmaidtales.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/sumo-suit.jpg) costume up with both hands.]

[She wrinkles up her nose.]

So basically, you want me to wear a balloon? I've got to be able to walk, you know. What costume are you going to wear?

I dunno...you like this one?

[A pizza box, with a picture (http://www.ssrfanatic.com/forum/attachments/f6/60865d1223179291-halloween-costume-suggestions-funny-halloween-costumes2.jpg) of the intended result posted on the outside of the bag.]

[Oh, god. What is that?]

I don't think so! Besides, wouldn't you get cold?

I'll help you--

[He sees what she pulls up, and when she holds it up to him, he swats at it.]

N-no way!

I don't get cold.
But yes, actually, I would...

Uh....how about....this?

[Pulling out another costume (http://www.tacomatrix.com/wp-content/uploads/taco-costume.jpg) now.]

What? Trying to hide something?

[She lets the loincloth drop to the floor and flashes him another smile before turning to run a finger along the costumes on the rack.]

So what kind of costume are you looking for? Obviously something with more... costume?

Sure, you don't. And what's with you and food costumes? Do you really want to be a taco or are you just hungry?

[She's sort of poking questioningly at that taco.]

I have nothing to hide.

[What.]

Yeah, I'd rather be wearing something.

For your information, Aqua...

Uh, well I am kinda hungry, actually...But it's a cool costume anyway!

[She freezes when he makes that first comment, peering over her shoulder at him like she's hesitating to say something about it. But then she just returns her attention to the costumes, amused.]

How about...

[Turning around, she lifts up another costume (http://www.3wishes.com/images/zootsuitgangster-l.jpg) to show him.]

A zoot suit?

Heh heh. Want to try it on, then, or do you want to keep looking?

[Aqua thinks he'd make a cute taco, anyway.]

I don't need your permission.

[Raspberry being blown as he runs off to the dressing room.]

It was just a suggestion!

[She smiles, returning to the rack to continue looking for a costume for herself.]

Let me see it on you when you're finished.

[She really wishes she had a camera at times like these. A photo of Demyx as a taco would make for the perfect blackmail.]
