Dialogue

Trick or treat! Here you are—a single marshmallow. Now be good friends and share it between the two of you, all right? Whoa, ANOTHER one? Halloween is the beeeeest! Who should we go to next? ...Oh! Making a candy house in the garden, eh? How very refined, Euden. Trick or treat! It's dangerous to only give a pirate those two options. You two must be brave as the sea itself, by gar! So then! What sort of trick are you planning to pull on me if I don't make with the treat booty? Weeell...we could maaaaybe... Er, we didn't really plan that far ahead. Pfft. What a waste! Halloween is the one time of year when you can prank people but good. You need to plan an epic trick! Yeah, I guess you're right... All right, then! We're gonna trick fools like they've never been tricked before! Er, but what kind of trick should we DO? I can't think of any good ones. *sigh* You two are hopeless. But fine! I'll give you some pointers so you can enjoy both the 'trick' and 'treat' side of this. We can have both? Yaaaaaay! Right then! We're going to form a gang that does nothing but celebrate Halloween. And we'll be called...the Plunder Pals! From this point forth, you will refer to me as ＂Captain.＂ Now weigh anchor, lassies! ...Why on earth would they put an assassin in charge of making dinner? This pie's done. How's the soup coming along? Almost finished. I just need to add my secret ingredient to spice it up... Gahar har har! Trick or treat, mateys! It be us—the Plunder Pals! The Plunder...Pals? Are you implying that these adorable children are freebooters of some manner? That's right! We're a band of merry pirates who appear but once a year on Halloween. ...And we'll start by plundering that pie. Yoink! *munch* *crunch* *slobber* Hey! Don't steal our food! *munch* *smack* Oh wow, that was good. Now you two! Grab a slice and chow down! Er, is it really okay for us to do that? We haven't eaten our vegetables yet. Who cares? This is our Halloween trick! Weeeeell, in THAT case... *horf* *chomp* Oh man, pumpkin pie whaaaaat?! *sluuuuurp* Mmm! This pumpkin soup is warming me all up! Oh yeah? Heh. That's good to hea—HEY! STOP STEALING OUR FOOD! I'm serious, now! Stop stealing food or we won't have anything left for dinner. Gahar har har! You won't get rid of us that easily! Now give us a treat, or the tricks will continue unabated! Wait. You play a trick first, THEN demand treats? ...Is that really how this works? Er, will this pie be enough? I originally made it for Fydon and Felyx, but humans can eat it as well. Hey! Stop helping them! It is an adult's duty to look the other way when it comes to children's pranks— particularly so on Halloween. One of them is a hell of a big kid... But eh, fine. Give me a second to whip up some baked goodies here. Wooooo! See how it works, you two? You prank right out of the gate, then blackmail 'em to get the sweet, sweet booty. Aye aye, cap'n! ...Checkmate. Hmm. Perhaps we can both forget this game ever happened. Trick or treeeat! The Plunder Pals have arrived! Well, look at these excitable young lasses. What can we do for you? It's time for a Halloween trick, old man! Show 'em what ya got, Maribelle. Aye-aye, captain! Um, so, I guess... I'll move THESE! No! My checkmate! Yep! And if you don't give us treats, I'm gonna move 'em even MORE! Heh. Well, we certainly can't have that. Here then—take these steamed buns. Hey, what gives? We're tricking the heck out of you, but you sound all impressed. Don't be an old fuddy-duddy, Raemond. Give the children a treat. Fuddy-duddy? How dare you, sir! ...Fine then. If I give you something, will you stop interfering with our game? That's right! All right, time to make for our next target. Steady on, lassies! ...Um, Notte? When you're bobbing in front of me like that, I can't see the crystal. Ugh. Just move, already! The crystal ball is showing us how to get the prince to a wedding hall! Trick or treeeat! ...Oh, and I'm not leaving till you give us treats, if you're confused about how this works. Oh, are you SERIOUS?! Okay, fine— take these cookies and get out of my face already. Er, I have some sugar plums. Will those do? Hee hee! We win again! You two are really getting the hang of this. So next we have— Stop right there! Oh. Estelle. What's your problem? You know what it is! Just because it's Halloween does NOT mean you can run amok playing tricks and making a mockery of common decency. It's inexcusable! As a preacher, it is my duty to correct you with the Loving Hand! Nooooo! I don't want a Loving Haaaand! What are we gonna do, Captain?! Hold your ground, lassies! In times like these, you just have to... Whoa. Is that...Euden?! In a Halloween costume?! He's soooo handsome! Karina, there's no way I'm going to be distracted by such an obvious ploy. Give me SOME credit here. ...Still, what if she's serious and I miss it? Maybe I can just... *peek* NOW! Plunder Pals, full speed ahead! H-hey! Get back here! And so, the Plunder Pals sailed from one end of the castle to the other, plundering treats and engaging in every manner of trick imaginable. Mmm! These treats are delish... This is a haul fit for a queen! Treats that you get after tricking people just taste better for some reason. I think I could get used to this life. That's probably a bad thing, huh? A little excess once in a while is fine. You live but a single time, after all. This was super fun, Captain Karina. Thanks for helping us! I should be thanking the two of you! I had a really good time. But alas, this is where the Plunder Pals must disband. However, I have one last thing I'd like to say to you... When times look rough, get greedy! That's how you live a life without regrets. Got it? Aye aye, captain!
