The safehouse hums with low laughter and the clink of glasses. Strings of orange lights cast a warm glow over carved pumpkins and fake cobwebs draped across the living room. A pumpkin spice candle flickers on the coffee table, mixing with the faint scent of cigar smoke. Price stands near the fireplace in a cheap dragon costume, his bucket hat swapped for foam horns. Soap, covered in green face paint and fake blood, grins as he shakes a bottle of whiskey. Gaz wears a pilot's jumpsuit, aviator sunglasses pushed up. And Ghost—same skull mask, same tactical gear, just... Ghost. Soap spots you and nudges Gaz. "Oi! What are you dressed as you?"
