Brash's head recedes into her armor, after a moment a loud clang
is heard and the armor falls to pieces. "No." Brash answers with
a calm sigh as she gets on her hooves. "If I'm not going to win
any costume competition, I don't even know why I'm outside." In
spite of saying this Brash's coat is dyed green and lined with
drawn stitches in area's that were covered by the armor,
indicating she may have had plans beyond a contest. She picks up
her bucket and examines her surroundings.
Brash places the bucket's handle around her neck and turns to
Resin, "Although I can't let my preparations go to waste, I'm
lost as to what the appeal of this backwater town holiday is. So
far I've just been hurting my head and collecting candy and now
I won't even win anything." Brash takes a piece of candy from
her bucket and leaves it in the pile of discarded armor.

Resin had never heard Nightmare Night be described as a
backwater town holiday before. Maybe this pony just never liked
it, but such an attitude made Resin think that this foal have
also been in some way new to this kind of environment. Sounded
like an attitude he'd more expect from a pony back in the city.
Oh well.
"I'm pretty sure most ponies out here are more interested in fun
than they are in winning," Resin replied, the idea that a kid
couldn't see the appeal of dressing up in a fun costume and
getting free candy not even being able to fully register for
him, "I mean, I had barely any time to work on my costume so
there's no chance I could ever win, but I was still having an...
a pretty alright time." Sorta lonely, but candy was still candy.
"I mean, even the general mood of this town for Nightmare Night
is better than it was back where I used to live. Even heard that
the Princess shows up for the night here to hang out with
everypony, though so far I dunno if that's just a rumor. What
were your preparing for anyway? Pranks?"

Brash hums and rubs her chin as she mulls over Resin's words.
"Nothing so elaborate." She responds, "I simply meant I went
through all the trouble to obtain a proper bucket, make primary
and secondary costumes for me and my friend, and made plans
should we be separated."
Brash turns to head towards the next house, setting another
piece of candy on the ground. "Well, if you think this ordeal is
fun, I could use a pony to do that tired chant for me so I don't
have to wrench the candy out of everyponys' hooves." Ready to
make a trail of candy, Brash awaits to see if Resin will lead
the way.

Ryo admired the costumes of ponies she passed by, some more
creative than others, and some clearly more polished than
others. Costumes ranged from a simple blanket with two eye
holes, to princesses, firefighters and even strange looking
metal pony thingy. The young pony in the costume kept shouting
something about "Iron-pony", but Ryo had no idea who or what
that was. After a short trot Ryo was able to see the center of
the festivities, but something caught her ear. A weird,
mysterious hissing noise. Being the night of spooks, and wanting
to avoid being spooked, Ryo began to spin around, trying to spot
the source of the hissing. It took her a moment to direct her
eyes to the sky, where she spotted a figure speeding towards
her.
It took Ryo a moment to realize that the figure looked like a
changeling, and another moment for her hooves to agree with each
others on which direction she should dive to move out from the
flying pony's way, and with an audible "Eeep!", Ryo jumped to
the side. Not very super hero like, but the "changeling" looked
dangerous. Ryo stumbled into some nightmare night decorations
during her dive, but managed to not break anything. She quickly
raised the now a bit dented cardboard cut out of a werepony she
crashed on, and returned to look at the "changeling", to deliver
some justice to this daredevil, and hope that they were not
actually a real changeling. "A-are you crazy...? That's
dangerous t-to... D-dive like that towards the g-ground..." The
rather sparkling nature of this "changeling" caused Ryo to raise
her eyebrow, as she tried to take a bit better look on the pony.
"Y-you're... Not a real c-changeling...? Are you...?"

"Er... Kay. Sounds easy enough," Resin replied, taking on the
responsibility of the chant as he adjusted his mask and then
pointed a hoof at the candy Brash was deliberately leaving
behind, "You're leaking candy, by the way." He joked more to ask
a question of why she was doing it to begin with than to
actually warn about her decreasing stock of sugary treats.
Another thing she had said had also brought a second question to
his mind too, and he asked it as he turned to start walking
towards the next house. "Where did your friend go anyway? That
pegasus just seemed to dash off like she'd seen a real ghost.
Seems an odd night to get spooked by something like that."

"I'm setting my plans into motion." Brash states in reply to the
leaking candy comment as she follows Resin, continuing to set
her trail of candy. "And that pegasus was my subordinate, she
was simply following orders."
Brash then draws a conclusion that peaks her interest, "You're
out here alone? I had presumed this was a social event." She'd
never been curious about other ponies but hopes she many have
found somepony at least somewhat similar to herself as she
listens for an answer.

Er... wasting candy was all part of a plan? Well, Resin was
confused. Maybe it's some way of leaving a trail for her friend
to follow so they could meet back up? She did mention plans for
if they got separated, but Resin wasn't sure exactly how long
abandoned candy would last during a holiday where groups of kids
were out and about hunting for such things. Eh. Whatever. If she
had a plan she had a plan, and Resin didn't know enough details
to question it.
At Brash' question, Resin paused at the start of the next path
leading to a house's door, "Yeah, I am, and yeah, it is... See,
I only just moved to this town so I didn't really have anypony
to go trick or treating with. And this place is a lot smaller
than Canterlot, so I guess the school here doesn't really
organize a group for it. Least none that I heard of at least."

Brash stops along with Resin and rolls her eyes, "Pfft, who
needs a group? So long as-"
Carri, her cloud costume now pink, dives down from the skies and
picks up Brash, "You're okay!" She tries multiple times to move
Brash in a position for a hug that wouldn't make contact with
her new bubblegum costume but gives up and sets her down. "Well
let's get back to hunting candy!" She then gasps loudly, her
eyes darting to the trail Brash had left. She promptly begins
eating the candy right off the ground and following the trail
back to Brash's discarded armor.
Expressionless throughout the sudden event, Brash continues, "So
long as you can get the candy. Though I suppose other traditions
and such related to this event might need more ponies I haven't
heard of anything else worthwhile to be gained." She takes a
step forward, hoping to start Resin up the path to the next
house.
