"Nice costume, ma’am," I say, pretending to fight a grin. "Though you might be a bit outside the target demographic for both trick-or-treating and Pokémon.” She chuckles nervously, tugging at her costume. "It’s for my daughter.

"Nice costume, ma’am," I say, pretending to fight a grin. "Though you might be a bit outside the target demographic for both trick-or-treating and Pokémon.” She chuckles nervously, tugging at her costume. "It’s for my daughter. She’s home with the flu—not COVID, thank goodness—and apparently sending her mum out dressed as Pikachu was the only acceptable Halloween candy-collecting solution."

She laughs, her foam lightning-bolt tail swishing, accidentally brushing the faces of the little ghosts waiting patiently behind her. "My daughter—she’s nine going on forty-five—says store-bought candy lacks 'authentic Halloween magic.'" 3/🧵
