[ Allura purses her lips at that. The assistant is peering into the haunted house to see if it's ready for their next group of guests--namely, them. Shivering out in the cold? Allura is kind of ready for a spook. ]

He might try. But I suspect that will be the end of the attraction, at that point. So let's hope he manages to "keep is cool", as they say.

[ "They" being Earthlings. She's getting good at this, isn't she?

But it's their turn! They're ushered forward as the main door to the Haunted House creaks open. ]

Are you ready, Shiro?

[Man, was it always this cold out here? It feels like it's gotten significantly colder since they've been standing out here, waiting. He shuffles his feet a bit.]

I believe in him. We've been working on deep, calming breaths.

[It's really cute when she tries for human sayings. He doesn't have the heart to correct her.]

[And instead, he offers her his arm.]

Ready to get out of the cold. You?

[ Allura smiles up at him and takes his offered arm. ]

I am, though I feel you might win this contest.

[ You're barely wearing anything, Shiro...

But in they go! And it's dark--immediately very dark with a very creepy butler to usher them deeper into the house. ]

Never say I ever went back on a bet.

[Well, that explains why he's dressed as Princess Leia.]

[But he escorts her into the darkness, regardless, feeling his skin crawl a little in pure reflex. It's just a pretend haunted house. Nothing to be worried about. Nothing to react to...]

I don't hear screaming. The guys must have made it out.

Perhaps it isn't as long as w--

[ Nope. There's Lance again, much further in the house, but it times almost perfectly with a ghost flying across their path with a whoosh of air.

Allura does jump in place. ]

[And Shiro jumps with her. A lot. He ends up grabbing onto her. A full-on arms around her, one leg hiked up grab.]

[Later, he would absolutely say this was trying to protect her. But both of them know how not true this is.]

Careful!
