Tucking his hands between his thighs as he waits on the low retaining wall running along the sidewalk, he jumps at the cat's sudden appearance. "Aren't you a bit overdressed?" Chanyeol's not complaining; he's just observing and trying not to simultaneously drool and feel sorry for himself when faced with Jongin in a full suit.

Somewhat self-consciously, Jongin looks down at himself, tail curling around his knee. Shyly picking at his white gloves, he says, "I'm a tuxedo cat."

Chanyeol's heart stutters in his chest. Cute! Dressed in brown and black with a teal collar and homemade tag, he proudly plants his hands on his hips. "I'm Scooby Doo!"

Jongin smiles. "I like it. Well," he looks out at the nearly bare trees, "let's go, Scoob."

They walk side-by-side in comfortable silence. Chanyeol watches Jongin as Jongin watches the full moon. Halloween usually is cold and often rainy; this year, it's definitely not warm, but it's dry and mild. Perfect trick-or-treating weather, if that was a thing locally.

"We'll take a shortcut, okay?" Jongin shrugs and follows Chanyeol, slowly drawing his shoulders up as he recognizes the cemetery ahead.

Chanyeol has no idea the danger he's leading them to, too trusting for his own good. He probably just wants to scare Jongin, oblivious to the very real danger he's brought them to.
