I walk past your shop often, never really had a reason to go in though. Might stop by if I want some hair stuff done or a manicure.

I run the joke shop just down the street from you, you’ll see me with all the Halloween decorations out in the window.

Your shop looks immaculate inside by the way.

I don’t really have much of a reason to go into a joke store admittedly, but I’ve seen your shop as well. 

Thank you. Feel free to stop in whenever if you need something.

Yuri: I know.. I’ll be vampire Yuri if I have to 😔

Yuri: I hope it doesn’t become one 😭😭 but I just feel how I do before it happens

Elias: Just try not to worry too much, that might make it worse.

dryurionice​:

Yuri: Yeah need to figure out when I’m gonna do it.

Yuri: I’m not feeling well right now Eli-phant…. I feel like a migraine is gonna start 😖

Elias: Make sure you tell me how it goes!

Elias: Make sure you stay out of the light if you do get one.

I didn’t realize how much goes in to raising a puppy. Thankfully I got Ace going when he’s outside and he knows how to sit, but other than that he’s a little bit slow.

Yuri: True... he does like when I cook for him. I can also set up candles and flowers he always loves that.

Elias: That sounds like a good idea to me! Just make sure to keep your nerves down.

Yuri: I don't know how to bring it up... maybe I can plan a surprise for him. And make it special

Elias: That'd be cute. Maybe make him something to eat? That's always nice.

Ty scratched Ace behind the ears when he hopped up onto the couch, before finishing off his muffin.

“It’s always good to have a bit of extra help.” He smiled gently at Eli and met his eyes.

“You have a nice place here by the way. It’s cosy.”

That it was. Soon enough he’d have Sam and Yuri in the apartment to help with sewing it up for Halloween. He trusted both the men to be able to help him with this, and he was sure if they worked together he’d be able to get things done. 

At the mention of his place Eli’s smile grew bright, very happy that Ty liked it. “Thanks, I keep all my geeky stuff in my room so this place doesn’t get cluttered,” he stated, though there were shelves with Pop! figurines littered around the apartment,

Elias: I'm sure Cam wouldn't get too spooked by it.

Yuri: I just... never admitted it to myself

Yuri: It's a little scary

Elias: Have you thought about talking to him about it?

Yuri: But... it's Cammy! He's my best friend I didn't think I felt... /that/ way?

Yuri: And at the same time I've always known

Elias: Hey, a lot of people fall for their best friends. You're not alone!

Yuri: Mm... that I kissed Cam

Yuri: Not like a regular kiss on the head or cheek... like a /kiss/ kiss...

Elias: Awww, you've got it bad don't you?

Yuri: I sorta had a dream last night that's been making me think a lot..

Elias: Yes I am!

“Oh wow. That cut is absolutely flawless. It looks really good!” Ty inspected it and felt the fabric. 

“Is it not difficult to get the cut just perfect? That’s what I’ve heard anyway.”

Ty took a sip of his hot chocolate and another bite of his muffin, turning briefly to see Ace chasing his tail.

Ty’s approval made Elias very happy, especially since that was the guy he got the fabric from in the first place. Elias took the tie back and headed to plop down on the couch, Ace soon following him over to join him. “I’m going to be having some help on the rest of it. I don’t have enough hands to get this done by Halloween,” he chuckled, remembering the little sewing party he’d started up the other day.

Oh, I can buy my own candy — there’s just not much reason for costumes as an adult unless it’s Halloween parties or trick or treating with little ones, and honestly watching a seven-year-old get excited over his dads dressing up is highly entertaining. Seeing the look on his face might actually ease the sting of the lack of shindigs.

You can always dress up to pass out candy! That’s what I do when there’s no party around town.

YES! Look at you, knowing what you’re talking about! That’s it! It was pretty good, and funny. Are most superhero movies comedy crossovers? So, wait, why does Marvel have more than the DC? Do people just like it better? Or does their stuff just not translate as well? Ohhhhhh okay, yes, that makes perfect sense. But like…Okay, follow-up question, who’s the villain? 

Woah, that’s totes nifty, I like that. You’ve deff inspired me to look more into the Lantern people, that sounds rad. And there’s a ring too? I mean, the best accessories are supes important so, there should be! A cat and a ring? Okay, now I’m totes interested. I love cats! They’re just such adorable little bubbles of fluff. 

That’s incredible! So do you, like, sew? I’m guessing you do, but sometimes on RuPaul’s Drag Race the contestants who can’t sew well will hot glue things. Apparently that works just as well, even thought I would have, like, never thought so. The Riddler….That’s the one with all the question marks, right?

No, most are action movies. Before the Avengers came around DC movies were a lot more popular, but now it’s Marvel’s turn I guess. The villain is a different person each time usually, like Ultron or Thanos. 

Dex-Starr is a red lantern, which are powered by rage. He’s a mean little kitty but I love him still. Dex-Starr’s ring goes on his tail. 

I can sew and I can hot glue! This costume is going to be sewn though since hot glue isn’t really the best for costumes. I don’t watch any drag race but I imagine their stuff comes undone a lot if they hot glue it.

cartersvillemcmason​:

Okay, okay, let me like, try to make sense of this. I feel like I should be taking notes or something! You totes know so much about all this! I think it’s supes cool. Okay but like…I think the last superhero movie I was was the one with the Whammy guy? Sha-Whammy? Something like that? I don’t remember, I don’t watch a lot of movies. I’ve heard about  Avengers but like, I don’t really get it? Probably because I haven’t seen it but like…What exactly are they avenging? I don’t mind long-winded if you want to share. I totes love it when people talk about what they’re passionate about too, so deff go off if you want. Why are there so many Lanterns? Couldn’t get street lights? Ha, ignore me, I think I’m funny sometimes. Ohhh, WolVerine. Gotcha, gotcha. Wait, dozens? I totes have to look more into this, I’ve clearly missed so much. 

That’s so cool, Elias! Like, deff cool! It’s great to be into something like that, really passionate and all. Do you ever make your own stuff? Or is it mostly stuff you buy? Either way is deff still amazing, you’ll have to show me sometime. So I take it that means you’re dressing up for Halloween then?

Oh, you’re thinking of Shazaam! That one is DC Comics. DC does have some movies out but Marvel has like, over 20 at this point. The Avengers avenge the deaths of anyone that the villain takes out! 

Okay so the Lantern Corps is the rainbow, plus black and white. You can become a Lantern when you embody an emotion a color represents, like green is willpower or blue is hope. You get a special ring to go along with your Corps and you can make weapons that come out of the ring! There’s even some animals that got a ring, like Dex-Starr the cat. 

I try my best to make my own costumes. It’s better that way since I can fit it perfectly - a lot of the costumes from stores and online can be too loose or too tight. And yes! I’ll be trying my best to get my Riddler cosplay done before then.
