She had been giving out candies to all the kids who approached her front door. The mere sight of everyone was entertaining to her with all the different costumes she had seen but to see her own daughter in one was just completely different. Sophia was adorable to say the least and all the while she was talking about her favourite candies, Phyllis could only smile in return, nodding away in agreement with everything the little one said. Looking up, her smile faltered ever so slightly at the emphasis on the ‘my’. “She looks a lot like you.” The faerie dismissed the jab of her absence, which claimed that she had no right to be the child’s mother or even acknowledge that fact. “You’ve done well.” She knew the compliment won’t mean much to the man she once loved - still loved, but she was genuine. 

Connor was very displeased with Phyllis having met Sophia and even more so as he watched her daughter talk to her so animatedly. He folded his arms across his chest in irritation, she had been doing this with every house they visited, he didn’t want to ruin her fun simply because he couldn’t handle the sight of Phyllis. She was someone whom he had cared for in the past but it had all gone downhill when she left without explanation. First he had worried, then he felt hurt but then hatred engulfed all other feelings he had for her and it had stayed that way for so long, he didn’t think it could ever change. “I know.” he said in response to her compliment. While he didn’t care about what she thought, he couldn’t help that the words he uttered had a proud undertone to it. “Sophia darling, are you ready to leave.” he asked his daughter in a completely different tone to what he usually did.

The memories of that night were still a bit hazy, more so because she was doing her hardest to push those thoughts from her brain and trying not to focus on it. As a small girl came running towards her, Celeste smiled and she had bent down so she could throw some candy in the little girls basket when suddenly, a grown man, who she assumed was her father, stepped in between the pair. Celeste’s eyes narrowed slightly as she tried to recognize the eerily familiar man and she took a step back with a frown. “I..I’m sorry.”

Connor pointed to Hugo who was dressed as Olaf walking not very far away from them which made Sophia even more excited and she ran towards him not giving Celeste another glance. “Sorry doesn’t quite cover it. Not after what you tried to do to her the other day.” he said, his anger and hatred for the girl quite obvious in his tone now that Sophia was out of ear shot. “What the hell are you doing here? Preying on some other innocent child?”

         “that is the best chameleon costume i’ve ever seen,” she said with a bright smile, waiting patiently as she dug around for a candy. the phoenix looked up momentarily. “benny,” she said softly. “i’m, uh, i’m suzy bishop from moonrise kingdom.”

Sophia thanked her happily before starting to look for her favourite candies. “Moonrise Kingdom, right. I remember now.” he said nodding and completely ignoring how she corrected her name. Working at the paediatric section of the hospital and having a child of his own meant that he knew a lot of the Disney and fairy tale related things, children movies and books. “A patient of mine, a little girl of about nine said she was dressing up as Suzy too.”

            Rowan roared playfully, fake vampire teeth in her mouth. She giggled, taking out the teeth and kneeling down so she was at the same height as the little girl, not really acknowledging the adult behind her. “Hmm, how about I give you some treats and you don’t play a trick on me, yeah?” She asked, retrieving the bowl full of candy, glancing at the adult behind. “Cute costume,” she mused, a playful grin on her lips.

Rowan had no reason to know of Sophia being almost attacked by a vampire merely days ago. So he couldn’t blame her for barring her fake fangs at his daughter but it made Connor feel a bit overprotective. He had had the little girl’s memory of the other night erased, he didn’t want her to remember things which was going to very obviously scar her and so Sophia, after the initial  slight shock, only laughed at the girl. He smiled too, but it was a forced, cold affair. “Thank you.” He managed with difficulty. “Yours looks great too – not very kid friendly but great all the same.”

“It’s Chloe, but close enough,” Chloe answered with a chuckle as she approached him and what it looked like to be his daughter as well. When he commented on her outfit, she couldn’t help but smirk. “Thanks! Being a sexy naughty nurse was in my top five choices,” she said before glancing to his daughter. “How old is she?”

“Chloe – right.” he said nodding his head. It was really something that he actually managed to come up with a similar name for her, he had hardly even listened when she had introduced herself the other day having been more interested in the coffee. “Top five?” he asked amused. “What were you other choices?” He glanced back at his daughter who seemed to now be comparing costumes with the other kids who stood there with little baskets of their own.  “Four, she’ll be five in a couple of months.”

Mikayla stopped at the driveway of the house, watching as Sophia ran off towards the door, leaving Mikayla and Connor alone to talk on the sidewalk. Her smile altered as the man stumbled around the topic of the little girl’s mother and she shook her head slightly, a hand quickly catching his to reassure him that it was okay, he didn’t need to put himself through the torture and the memories just for Mikayla. Of course, she didn’t know exactly anything about Connor’s ex-whatever she was and although she was curious, Mikayla wasn’t a stranger to loss and knew how much it hurt to let your thoughts linger on things like that. “it’s okay. I’m happy to be doing this for you…and Sophia, of course.” She stuttered, as she reailzed her grip was holding onto to his for a bit too long and Mikayla’s cheeks darkened, dropping her hand as Sophia came running back. “Did you get any good candies?” 

He glanced down at their hands for a second before looking up at her again, a small smile gracing his features. “Thank you. I mean – it’s more for her.” he insisted. “I would have taken her myself but, you had to appear like an angel in front of her with beautiful blonde hair and all. Hardly my fault.” he frowned as he realized what he was saying and how it could come off as, he managed to let go of her hand and turned away from her, his eyes suddenly very fascinated by the Halloween decorations. He was relieved when Sophia finally made it back to them and showed them the candy she had collected. He glanced sideways at Mikayla again as she spoke to his daughter, sensing that it was going to be a long and rather awkward night with her and he literally had no way to get out of it, not that he really wanted to.

She opened the door at the knock and just as she was going to greet the kids and perhaps their parents, the woman froze at the sight. “..Sophia..” Her child’s name came out as a whisper. She had hoped to avoid the child that she had abandoned years ago. It wasn’t that she didn’t love her child - even the sight of her was overwhelming to the faerie but at the time, Phyllis didn’t believe she was ready to be a mother. Even now she wasn’t ready. How long had it been? Sophia looked so big from the last time she had seen her. Sometimes she wondered what Connor told the child of her mother. Probably nothing good from all the hate he gave her. “Hey sweetie..” She said softly as she tossed a few treats into her little basket. “You look adorable..” Glancing up, a small smirk graced her face, “So do you, Connor.” 

Ever since he had the misfortune of meeting Phyllis as she got to town, Connor had decided that he would never let her meet Sophia. It had been rather easy because the mother of his child didn’t even bother to ask about how she was or what she was going, never mentioned her nor seemed to worry about her. So he had sort of eased out about the whole thing but he had forgotten to take into account that she probably lived somewhere around the place and as luck would have it, they were faced with her as they knocked at one of the houses. Sophia thanked her and started to talk about her favourite candies as Connor glared at her. “Thank you.” he said shortly. “Very kind of you to offer my daughter so many candies."

After the disaster of an evening she had, Celeste didn’t know if she was really feeling up to adventuring out on Halloween like she once was. Thankfully, Hugo insisted on following her and helping her out that evening so feeling like she owed him for his gratitude, Celeste tagged along with him that Halloween night, dressed up as Elsa, which was a last minute costume. Celeste smiled at some children who were passing by, filling up their baskets with candy.

Connor was all smiles that evening as he walked with Sophia but all of that changed and he froze when the little girl ran towards someone dressed as Elsa. He normally didn’t recognize or remember people so easily but Celeste wan’t someone who he could throw from his memory that easily even if he wanted to. He stepped forward and stood in between the two, blocking Sophia’s view and glaring at the blonde girl. “Get away from her.” he hissed angrily.

          “happy halloween!” benny greeted excitedly, a grin taking over her face. “and what might you be, kiddo?” she asked, crouching down and holding up a bowl of candy. she looked up, catching a glimpse of the man that had been so cold to her on the roof. her smile faltered. “uh hi.”

Connor smiled when he saw Benny talking to Sophia and little girl replying with ‘I am Pascal the chama-le-leon’. Having had not found their conversation at the roof to be even remotely rude on his side, Connor simply spoke as though nothing was the matter. “Hi Penny. What are you wearing?”

Chloe decided to be a sexy naughty nurse for Halloween so she put on her costume and went out and about. With a bottle of wine in one hand and her phone in the other she took a swig out of the bottle as she passed people down the street. Spotting a familiar face walking up to a house, she couldn’t help but smirk. “Connor?”

“Connor turned around when he heard his name recognizing Chloe from the other day, a small smile on his features. “Oh hi - uh - Clara?” he said quite forgetting her name. He glanced towards his daughter and saw her exchanging candies with another little girl before turning back to her. “You look pretty great.”

She was almost ready to head over to the party when she heard the doorbell ring. Her mother was going to stay home and hand out the candy but since she was still here, the fox figured she could get this round. Opening up the door, Nikita smiled, “H-Hey there!” She chuckled at the matching costumes, “Aww.. T-That’s so cute, the both of you..” Grabbing the bowl, she knelt down to the child’s level and held it out, “Take your pick.”

[connorreborn-blog]

“Thanks.” he said watching Sophia in amusement when she got excited seeing a minion. ‘Dad, dad, look!’ she said excitedly before looking down at the bowl. She spent  a few seconds analysing all the candies it held before picking one and thanking her. “Do you think there’ll be anything for kids at the party? I don’t want to take her there and  have her be scared.”

Mikayla barely glanced up as she heard Connor’s footsteps nearing her, too busy trying to gather everything she needed and attempting to do it in a timely manner so she didn’t disappoint Connor…again. She was putting herself under a lot of pressure but you couldn’t blame her. After a while of being put through the man’s insults for not being good enough, it was only expected that Mikayla wished to make the man happy, especially with something so important. “I think I’m okay, thanks. This is my specialty, like you and being a Surgeon. You don’t ask for help when you’re cutting somebody up in surgery, do you? I can handle this.” Mikayla said with a slight smile, the statement meant to be teasing.

[connorreborn-blog]

Mikayla seemed to be working fast and efficiently. This was her home and this was what she did and seemed comfortable here. Much unlike at the hospital where he'd almost always seen her panicky. It didn't occur to him that he was the main reason for that. "Well, I mean, if you put it that way, I kind of do." he shrugged. "That's what we have the interns for. Doing the boring jobs like stitching the patient up and things. It must be like months since I actually closed a patient, now that I think of it. There's always an intern who'd love to help. My point is - it's okay to share a job to do it faster. Though you seem to be handling yourself just fine." He had to bite his tongue to stop himself from adding for once. 

[mickmouse]

Mikayla smiled up at Connor at his compliment before standing up straight and letting Sophia grab ahold of her hand as they walked off Mikayla’s front porch and down the street to go visit the other houses. Mikayla liked this new side to Connor and even though his nice words still threw her off a bit because she was so used to his usual horrible ways, she was beginning to warm up to him and that made her slightly worried. Right now, he was being extra nice because they were in front of his daughter. If she got any closer to him and then they returned to work the following day and he was back to his old way, she wouldn’t know what to do. “Thank you for dragging me into this.” Mikayla teased, looking up at the taller man who was at her side.

Connor was slightly taken aback when she smiled brightly at him, she was undeniably beautiful, something which Connor had failed to notice when she messed up her charts and threw around his coffee cups. He looked away from her as he took Sophia's other hand and they walked together to the next house. "I just - Sophia really wanted and well, I couldn't exactly ask - uh." He shrugged as he watched Sophia run along with the other kids and they knocked the door together. Conversations about Sophia’s mother was not what he wanted tonight.  "Besides, I even got your schedule changed for this. So - you’re welcome." he said, a slight smile on his features. 

[mickmouse]

Mikayla swung open her front door as she heard the knock, already dressed in her Rapunzel costume, smiling at the happy reaction she received from Connor’s daughter. “Aw, don’t you two look cute.” Mikayla grinned, bending down to kiss the little girl on the cheek, quickly giving her a little tickle. “Now that I’m free from my tower, why don’t we go get some candy?” She said, glancing up at Connor.

[connorreborn-blog]

A genuine smile appeared on Conner’s face when he saw how excited Sophia was to see Mikayla. And it only grew wider when Mikayla showed just as much affection to her. “You don’t look so bad yourself.” he said, his demeanour rather different from his usual self. “When ever the Princess and Pascal are ready.”

[connorreborn-blog]

It was his  daughter’s first Trick or Treat and when the four year old seemed finally satisfied with both their costumes (Pascal and Flynn) they went out together with a basket in her hand, much to her excitement. ‘Trick or Treat’ Sophia shouted happily as the door they had knocked on opened up.
