Falan was almost certain he was going to have regrets, but his daughter wanted to be here and it wasn't fair to deny her experiences just because her behavior made him nervous. She had promised to behave, but her definition of behave and his were likely starkly different. He accepted the treat and plushie into his pail and kept praying to the twelve that his daughter didn't cause problems.
Runaldi wished her father would relax. He needed to learn how to live a little in her opinion, not to mention what did he think she was going to do? Unless she spotted someone who needed their butt kicked, she wasn't going to have to cause a fuss anyway. Oh wow, what was this creepy thing? It looked like a screaming mandrake or something. Cool. She would throw it at her father later just to see what he'd do. This was a season to have fun after all!
If Hitotsu had his way he wouldn't go anywhere near this strangeness. Making light of the spirit nights seemed like tempting fate, but things were clearly different here. He still would have avoided it if he had the choice, but he didn't really have one. His little sister deserved to experience this, especially after their parent's neglect of her. For her he would do quite a bit, just for the chance of a smile. A snack and a toy, huh? He could give this to his sister, or at least a little bit. She'd never had sweets before, so he understandably worried she would get sick. Moderation was key. She could definitely have the toy.
Shisume's ears swiveled constantly, making it look a bit like she had a living thing on her head as all four ears flipped this way and that. Though her eyes worked just fine, her parents had believed her blind and so left her in the dark. She had learned how to rely on her excellent hearing to navigate as a result, and kept close to her brother with her eyes squinted mostly shut. Everything was so noisy and overwhelming, and so she jumped when she found a brightly colored thing being offered to her. Oh, it was a bracelet? What was that? Her brother helped her put it on and explained it was jewelry, something she could wear to feel pretty. She liked the idea of being pretty.
Aurelia smiled at Meadow and looked closer at the doll, raising a curious eyebrow as he wondered what it was. "I'm....not sure. It LOOKS like it could be a hallowed elf....but I dunno. It's kinda cute, though." She smiled and looked over as he was given another bag of candy, giggling at his comment. "We're kids in costume on Haunted Hallows; people are SUPPOSED to give us candy, silly." She smiled and sat down so she could start digging into her steamed veggies when someone sat down a bottle of weird, fizzy stuff and just walked off. She had no idea what it was....but it was probably not a drink.

Iolanthe took a well deserved break before she went back to join a group in their trick-or-treating endeavors, happily receiving a bag of candy corn.
Kohaku was comforting the pumpka who seemed to be calming down and settling happily into the baphomet's lap, letting the strange little thing quell its fears when someone walked over and handed Kohaku a candy bat with a gentle smile. "You're a gentle thing, aren't you?" They commented softly before just wandering off mysteriously.
Chidori enjoyed the cotton candy with pure gusto, absolutely enchanted by the simple sweet. There were probably other wonders of Below that she was going to discover but for tonight the discovery of such sweet treats was all she needed. Someone who was handing out candy to walkers smiled at her and dropped a bag of chocolate skulls into her bucket, saying she was a very pretty ghost. The kumiho blushed rather brightly.
Verve ducked behind a booth, where the owner coughed in expectation. Trying not to roll her eyes, the chimera handed over some loose change and blindly threw it at the stacked bottles.
And won a plushie! Woot woot!

Why did it have to be so dark? Yes it made him less likely to be seen but it also made it difficult for him to see! If only he thought to bring a torch or something.
As he grumbled over his predicament, what should pass by but a glowing wisp. He pointed at it and declared, "You are acceptable."

The latest plush he won was going to a special someone, Charmstar decided.
