🎃Halloween with the Phantom Thieves!🎃

The usual group gathered at the usual café, discussing plans. It was the cold and windy month of October, and it was almost a certain holiday. 

This fact wasn't forgotten by a certain couple of thieves. Futaba was grinning as she suggested plans, glasses glimmering suspiciously under the lights in Leblanc. 

"Since it's Halloween soon, we should have a movie marathon." She said quickly. "Oh! And get a ton of snacks too."

Akira somehow managed to catch what she was saying. "Would you be okay going to people's doors?"

The bespectacled girl pouted. "I'll be fine! You guys will be coming with, right?"

"Too much sweets are bad for you, Futaba..." Makoto scolded lightly. "But I can see the appeal."

Yusuke nodded thoughtfully. "It wouldn't do much in the place for food, but if it's free..."

"H-Hold on, don't talk like that Yusuke!" Ann laughs nervously as she waved her hand. "Well if we're going trick-or-treating, we need costumes, right? What should we go as?"

Futaba held up her hand. "I wanna be an alien."

"Woah, how quick." You observed with amusement. She grinned confidently at you in reply. 

"Then I wanna be a pirate." Ryuji piped up. When all eyes went on him, he frowned. "What?! What's wrong with that?"

"It's a little on the nose." Ann stated. Ryuji clicked his tongue.

"Well, what'd you wanna be?"

"I dunno yet." Ann shrugged, gazing up at the ceiling as she thought. Her face then lit up. "Ooh, how about a succubus?" 

Ryuji scoffed lightly. "Little on the nose." He mimicked. 

"Hey, I just don't want to go as something cliche!" Ann countered, but sighed and turned to Makoto. "What about you?"

"Me?" Makoto is wide-eyed for a moment, soon relaxing again and brushing her hair back absentmindedly. "I'm not sure... I've never done this before."

"What? Lame." Futaba slumped over the table. "What about you, Inari?"

He ignored the nickname. "I've yet to experience trick-or-treating as well, so I have no idea."

"How old are you guys?!"

Akira smiled calmly at the banter around him, pushing up his glasses as he spoke. "Why don't we give it a try? It could be fun."

"Oh, he speaks!" Ryuji grinned. "Well, looks like we gotta do it then." 

Haru beamed happily from her seat, setting down her teacup. "What shall you dress up as then, Akira-kun?"

The group suddenly went silent, leaning forward to inspect his face. He blinked, expression impassive. 

"... Don't you think he'd be a good magician?" You pondered aloud, leaning back again in your seat. 

"To be honest, I can see it myself." Akechi mused, hand to his chin. 

Futaba nodded eagerly. "Yeah, he does." She waved her hand, as if casting a spell. "Now go magic me up some curry!"

"I'm out of SP." Akira responded jokingly. Makoto furrowed her eyebrows, completely lost as the joke went over her head.

"Then I think Yusuke'd make a pretty good ghost." Ann said, pointing at him. 

He tipped his head, his dark blue hair falling slightly to the side. "Is that so?"
