Trick or treat...trick'r'treat...gimme something good to eat...

[The Dormouse didn't even make it to his teacup today. He's curled up on a tearoom table, snoozing and humming a vague tune in his sleep.]

Treacle tarts or treacle pies...take 'em so...nobody dies...

[He stops for a moment, as though maybe he fell asleep of forgot the words, but with a jolt as though he fell in his dreams, he starts again.]

--Treats or tricks! Treats...or tricks...wonder which one you'll...you'll pick...

[All goes quiet again, except for the tiniest snoring. Eventually, the feed ends on its own.]

That doesn't make any sense.

[They nibble on their lip. Halloween in summer?]

Well...thanks for the warning, I guess.

...how is it I can still be here after this long and didn't expect a talking mouse? What's next, are the walls going to talk as well?

[Jowan is so over this place.]

Maybe someday...maybe they'll be treacle-covered too....

[Every dream is better with the inclusion of delicious treacle.]
