Nadia frowned for the first time in a long time.
"I think you would be."

Dax gave a little smile.
"All right." He agreed. If she was leading him into a trap, he was sure he could fight his way out. "I'll wear my old garb for you, even."

"Ooh, nice and authentic," Nadia giggled, "I promise I'm nice. Um. What's your address? I can send you an invitation."

Dax paused and picked up a napkin.
"You gotta pen?"

"Ummm..."
A hand went into Nadia's dreads just behind her ear and came out with a pen.
"Yep!"

Dax gave a small smile, scrawling his address down. His writing was just as rough as the rest of him.
"There you are, missy."

Nadia had spent a good 3 years working with illiterate adults during high school. She had no problem with handwriting.
"Thanks!"
She pocketed the pen and the napkin, finishing up her waffles. She made a new friend today! Again!

Dax gave her a little smile, finishing his noodles. Omnomnom.
"No problem, missy."

"I'll see you then!" Nadia said with a smile, giving Dax a little pat on the shoulder as she went to pay. Yay!

The invitation originally gave the time and date for a party, apparently held by some clothing line. Scribbled on the other side, though, was a Nadia-scirbbled note with her address and "come before to give out candy!". That was all.

And so Dax came early, dressed in old garb. Complete with tearing and bloodstains! His face was still dirty, smeared, making his eye look somewhat sunken and assuredly like an angry pirate. Ararar.
Knock Knock!

Nadia was waiting for him in her Harley Quinn costume. The front room seemed to only be a stairwell.
"Hey! I live upstairs, but I've been hanging out here to give out candy. Wanna come in?"

Dax gave a small laugh.
"If you don't think I'll scare them."

"'Course not," Nadia said, letting Dax in. A bowl of giant candy bars and bags of non-chocolate sweets sat on a low step, and a bench was in front of the stairs.
"So. Is that blood yours? I ask because it really doesn't look fake."

A look down at the clothes.
"Most of it."
