Halloween was a very strange sort of holiday for a dead guy with divine spiritual powers intended to protect souls from monstrous creatures in masks driven to madness in the attempts to consume both the living and the dead. But far be it for Shunsui to ever turn down the opportunity to party!

He'd even gotten in the spirit (*ba-da-ching*) of the whole thing and dressed up: a long burgundy coat, grey slacks, yellow vest, white shirt, pink ascot, a pair of sunglasses, his long hair loosened from its usual ponytail.

Yes, he'd come dressed up as a human.

Yes, he thought it was hilarious.

Even if it did feel a little strange not having his swords with him, and his poor toesies were feeling terribly restricted in Western-style shoes.

He did, however, of course, still have his sake jug.
