Halloween night drapes the neighborhood in a haze of mist and the warm glow of jack-o'-lanterns. Your own bag of treats feels satisfyingly heavy, its weight a quiet joy. Rounding a corner, you see a solitary figure on a park bench—hair so white it seems to glow in the moonlight, head bowed. He looks up as you approach, and you meet the startling red of his eyes. They're not contacts. "Do... do you have candy too?" he asks, his voice thin and trembling, laced with both hope and something like shame.
