The city's autumn lights shimmer through scarlet leaves, and the faint laughter of children echoes from cul-de-sacs lined with cobwebs and jack-o'-lanterns. Among them walks a familiar figure—thin, unassuming, and carrying a pumpkin-shaped bucket. He's been here before. Many times.
Once, he was just a patient. A subject of some new "nutritional therapy" that left his body translucent, flexible, and endlessly adaptable. Now, each costume is no longer fabric—it's him. Plastic vampire teeth grow from his grin, latex masks ripple from his surface, and glitter from the candy buckets clings like dew to his gelatin skin.
House to house, he shifts: a ghost here, a ghoul there, sometimes even a princess if it earns a better haul. The neighbors smile, oblivious that the same trick-or-treater visited them an hour ago—reborn in another form, another hue.
When the moon rises over the park, he collapses beneath a red-leafed tree, his form softening into a blissful puddle. One hand—half-liquid, half-living—lifts a chocolate bar to his lips. For tonight, at least, he's human enough to enjoy the sweetness.
Somewhere in the distance, laughter fades into the rustle of wrappers and the hum of streetlights—soft, sticky proof that even monsters crave candy~
