      _{fall is axel’s favorite time of year. things just seemed to get better around the later part of the year, even having to ride the bus because his car’s out of service at the moment. he’s got his earbuds plugged in on both sides of his head, rummaging through the paper bag on his lap to sneak some early halloween candy ( what ash didn’t know wouldn’t kill him ). he’s elbow deep into the paper when he catches the guy sitting next to him turn his way, brows raised as he pulls a single headphone from his ear, feeling very much caught.  ‘ what was that ??  hey, aren’t you – nevermind. you, uh, have any plans for halloween, mister ?? ‘}

           _{speaking of having better days, this one is quickly turning into one of his worst. there’s a brief familiarity he has for the other boy, and he feels like he’s seen him before, at some point ; and the boy’s words only seem to further his assumption. for a horrifying moment, elwood’s wondering if he’s someone he’s slept with – but quickly discards that trail of thought because the boy looks far too young. humming, elwood shrugs his shoulders, feeling momentarily guilty for disturbing him. ❛ … – m’not sure. m’gettin’ too old for all this halloween nonsense. what about you? ❜}
