The week is going alright, though Halloween not as much. I’m cosplaying and giving out candy, and last year people backlashed because I was giving out cotton candy which they complained took up too much space in their bags (the year before that, I gave out fruit, same reaction since people want candy). This year I have been giving out candy canes. Same reaction, since they say they don’t want anything to do with Christmas until after Halloween or after Thanksgiving. So this doesn’t seem to be my day.
Had a cosplay on of Stephanie Dola, but it got soaked in the rain earlier, so I changed into a backup cosplay, of Yoko Littner. I was originally going to go as a number of other characters but ended up doing those earlier and didn’t want to just redo them, plus the Yoko Littner cosplay is easy to wear something over. An autistic trick-or-treater recognized the character and wanted a picture after the point when I had put some of my everyday clothes on over the cosplay due to it being cold (while not getting rid of the cosplay, plus I was still handing out candy), but he got intensely scolded because his family and peers didn’t recognize the character and it sounded like he was randomly trying to ask an uncostumed person to undress from how it came off, and I feel sorry for him. I’m not outside the request and hope he’s socially alright.
