Open Victim of a Beast

[Flynn Kaster]

After kissing during playing spin the bottle, Flynn was worried that things might have gone a bit weird between him and his friend, but fortunately, he found that Lysander was just as happy to not discuss it as he was. He probably didn't even really think about it that much - there was lots of kissing going on in that circle - so Flynn didn't see the point in mentioning it, himself. The recent transfer did think about it on occasion, however, but it wasn't distracting enough to talk to his older brother about. Quite frankly, he would probably go to his baby sister first than talk to Chrys about anything like this. It didn't matter, because they were still hanging out like nothing happened, and it was his favourite holiday, too. Halloween was going to be amazing.​

Flynn was so proud of his costume, and it was just so convenient that it went so well with Lysander's. They hadn't planned the pairing costumes until the last minute, after finding how well they suited each other and thinking about how fun it would be to coordinate. It may have been a bit tasteless, but Flynn didn't think about the subject matter and just flat out didn't care. "Man, our costumes are totally the best," he decided, walking past various costumes that were objectively better. "Others might be stylish, but we're funny, and that's what counts, right?" He grinned at Lysander.​

 

[Lysander Summers]

To say that Lysander didn't think about his kiss with Flynn would be a total lie. He'd seen his dormmate every day since, so it was something of a constant reminder to the fact. It hadn't technically been his first kiss, by half a minute at the most, but it was close enough to feel like it was. His kiss with Lars was different by comparison. Briefer, weirder, due to the whole fact he was his best friend's older brother, of all people, and Emma had no problem making fun of him about it. Flynn was his age and his new friend, and while he'd always known he was really cute compared to most of the other boys, he noticed it more since their game of spin the bottle. Because they shared a room, he tried not to think too much about it, and since Flynn hadn't said anything, Sander was happy to keep a lid on it and go about life as normal.

Going to Halloween as a couple definitely helped with the whole "keeping things normal" plan. Lysander honestly loved their costumes. He'd watched enough horror movies with Wendall to appreciate some good gory makeup. It did make his decision to simply have his skin charmed green seem a lot less inspired, but he was happy with the overall outcome of his own look all the same. "For sure." He grinned in response to Flynn, looking around at everyone else and pointedly focusing on the students who looked like they were just wearing their normal clothes instead of costumes. "I won the costume competition once. They even gave me a trophy and everything." He boasted proudly, though he'd promised himself to never wear another costume that got so hot so quickly. It was probably why he hadn't won again the previous year, he told himself. "I bet we could win again." He said confidently. He fidgeted around beneath his cloak and withdrew a bag of jelly babies he'd brought along for the occasion. The feast may have had a snack table, but none of it were a hag's favourite food. "Do you want one?" He asked, offering it out to the other boy.​
