Kate's room was a bit messier than you were expecting, but other than that, it was pretty average overall. It had all the same things the other rooms had: a bed, couch, desk, TV, and some decorations. Two windows in the main bedroom, one frosted window in the bathroom for privacy. Kate's king-sized bed was pushed into the corner between the wall the door was on and the wall the bathroom door was on. In the middle of the wall opposite of the door was the TV, the couch pushed into the opposite corner of the bed. There was a small wood and glass coffee table in front of it. Kate's L-shaped desk was right in front of the left window, opposite of the bed. There was a small shelf pushed under the wall-mounted TV. There were papers scattered across the desk, covered in messy drawings reminiscent of Slenderman. The coffee table had a half-empty mug of coffee on it along with a few opened and partially-unfinished bags of snacks. Posters littered the walls for all different kinds of things, mostly rock or emo bands.

Kate was at the desk, leaning back in her chair with her legs on the opposite side of the desk. She was on her computer, searching for fancy clothing stores that were in town. Tim was over with her, the two of them debating which store seemed nicer. Skully was sitting on the edge of Kate's bed, scrolling through YouTube on the TV to find something that seemed interesting to watch. You, and Brian were sitting on the couch, Toby deciding to lay on it, stretching out on top of you two. His head ended up in your lap. You idly ran your hands through his soft hair, without even really realizing that you were doing it. "Hey, uh, are you guys al-almost done, arg-arguing over there?" Toby asked, antsy to get to the fun part: debating with everyone on the theme we wanted to go for.

"We've gotten the list down to two different stores." Kate announced. "Maybe we should just start talking about what we want and then choose the place that's most likely to have what we want." She suggested, shrugging.

"Yeah, we should do that." Tim nodded. "So, what were you guys thinking?" He stood to his full height, no longer leaning over the desk. You hadn't really given it much thought yet, but you wanted something that was flattering and matched your mask. Toby perked up a little bit.

"I was thinking something mainly black, or dark grey with some blue." Toby smiled. Since he was laying in your lap, all of his tics and movements were much more noticeable. His head twitched slightly, and you were worried for a second you had pulled on his hair slightly when he did so. Even if he couldn't feel pain, you still felt bad.

"I don't really look good in blue." Tim cringed. "How about red and black?" He suggested, moving to sit besides Skully who had finally settled for a video essay about something you didn't recognize.

"I like red." Kate swept her legs off of the desk, leaning forward in her chair. This action made some of her long, black hair fall over her shoulders. You suddenly found yourself internally commenting on her beauty. You blushed slightly under your mask and averted your attention to the boy stretched out over you and Brian's laps. This just made you blush redder. You thanked god that you had picked out a mask that covered everything below your eyes. "I think [Name] would look good in any color." You looked back up at her.

"Thank you." You giggled, still running your hands through Toby's hair. "Red and black are nice." You added your thoughts on the matter simply.

"I don't look good in red." Brian frowned. Toby nodded.

"Me eith-either, I l-look better in cool... tones." Toby hummed. "Maybe... me and Brian can wore- wear black while you g-guys wear red?" He suggested. Skully signed something, but you could only pick up part of it.

"I'll... black..." Is all you could pick up on, but you still understood what he meant. This also meant that you, Kate and Tim would be wearing red. You didn't mind this. The red would go well with the gold of your mask, and it was a relatively flattering color on you.
