Gossip wasn’t something that took over the town, but it was hard to notice a new resident... Especially one that wasn’t a ghoul. A human had taken up residence in the moors with the young Shadow and would frequently visit the town for various supplies. It was on one such visit that Jack happened to spot her.

It was no surprise he had heard whispers about her and that fair hair. It was hardly like anything the residents would be used to. But now wasn’t the time for that. He was Pumpkin King, and he ought to have manners!

“Excuse me, madam?” Jack called out, making sure to allow her time to notice the absurdly tall skeleton approaching her. “I do apologise for calling out in such an impolite manner, but I do not believe I have the chance to make your acquaintance. My name is Jack.” Upon giving his name, he gave a low bow to the young woman. “I must say, it is rather unusual to have a human reside in our humble lands. Might I ask how it is you got here?”

Sure, it was probably a little silly, even for his standards, but who was Jack if he couldn’t have a little fun in seeing an old friend? A basket was hanging on the crook of his elbow as he wandered the familiar forest pathways.

“Oh, what a shame. I certainly do need some assistance. If only I had a smaller pair of hands to help me assemble this spooky bunting!” Now... Where was Clementine?

“Forgive me if I seem a little invasive, but you look somewhat puzzled. Something I can help with, maybe?” The pumpkin the skeleton had been carrying was set aside so he could give Alice his full attention.

Have you noticed most of my queue has been unrelated to Jack Skellington?

[skeletonwithabowtie]

If you’re like us, you probably watched The Nightmare Before Christmas on VHS every single day after school with a snack of apple wedges dipped in peanut butter… or something like that.
