What kind of lunacy is that logic? What, just because someone is born on, I don't know, "Potato Appreciation Day", doesn't mean they grow up to be a potato farmer!

[Keats, setting a world record for REALLY HATING EVERYTHING RIGHT NOW.]

It's just a date! It doesn't mean anything, idiot!

[ex_mettacrusher33]

No! No no no no no, this is not the same thing!! This would be like someone whose NAME is Potato Johnson being born on Potato Appreciation Day and-- [Oh god, stop laughing. You're a rock, Mettaton. Stop laughing.] And, pft, not believing potatoes are edible.

AND YOU PROBABLY DON'T EVEN CELEBRATE IT, YOU DUNCE.

[headlining]

[Why is his life one huge cosmic joke?? THE REAL QUESTION WORTH ASKING.]

Of course I don't. Besides, it's based on a completely different holiday overseas. Your Halloween came from the Gaelic harvest festival of Samhain and All Soul's Day, you know. Not exactly the same, really.

[He sighs.] But like I said, is it really worth all the fuss? Me being born on Halloween?

[ex_mettacrusher33]

Yes.

[headlining]

[Just...this.]

You're annoying, you know that?

[ex_mettacrusher33]

So you tell me every time we talk and yet you talk to me anyway. It must be such a curse for you, having me being this charming.

But never you fear, honeysuckle. I'll be sure to remember and get you a horrifying gift. [You can hear him wiggling his fingers. Spooooooooky~~~]

If you get me something Halloween-themed, I swear I'll deck you so hard your idiotic head falls off.

[Keep all Halloween items in a 500 mile radius away from him.]

Honestly, some days I'm surprised by the level of tolerance I have for you, you know? It's times like these that I wish I was born with less of it.

[ex_mettacrusher33]

[Yeah, that's right. He's kissing the air. Mwah.

...actually, you know what. Go back.]

Why not something Halloween-themed? Is it because I find it funny or you just don't like it?

[Sigh!] It's a wonderful holiday!! The costumes, the pageantry... For one day a year, everything spooky and forgotten is embraced with as much love as everything else. It's practically a celebration...! [...oh, that's too personal, isn't it? Ah...

Ahem.]

Besides. MTT-brand Mettaton Costumes are always a best seller.

[headlining]

I mean, I like the holiday enough in terms of its history and themes and all, I just don't much like participating in it, is all. I'm just not much for celebrations in general.

[He's the complete opposite of Mettaton - he's not the life of the party. He's the death of it.]

The day I dress like you is the day pigs fly.

[ex_mettacrusher33]

...

Well, that wasn't in my plans when I said that, but it is now.

Thanks, darling!

[headlining]

What? No! It wasn't to give you any ideas, you clod!

[ex_mettacrusher33]

I'm fairly certain Peridot has that word trademarked. You'll have to think of another insult.

...what were we talking about again? Oh yes!! Don't tell me your shoe-size, sweetheart; half the fun is guessing.

[Mwah!]

Toodles!!

[headlining]

[SUING PERIDOT FOR COPYRIGHT NOW]

If you bring anything atrocious within a five mile radius of me, I swear I'll burn it! Don't hang up, idiot!

[ex_mettacrusher33]

[He hasn't, but he's clearly holding a hand against his jewelcomm.

It's barely muffling how much he's laughing.]

[headlining]

[Keats questions for the 90000th time why he has a crush on this robot.]

It's not funny! I mean it!

[ex_mettacrusher33]

[LAUGHING HARDER.]

[headlining]

[SUPER BITTERLY:] God, I hope you glitch.
