Can't miss that welcome. Rebecca raises a brow as Enya's calling is drowned out by Eric's whistle, and she eyes their companion curiously before shrugging and heading towards them. She keeps a distance from the group, standing on teh other side of the table.

"What's up?" She looks over at the various magazines with approval. Halloween is the best time of year.

"Oops!" she comments at nearly flipping Clyde onto the ground.

Once Rebecca sits down, she moves some of the magazines towards her.

"Failing at finding a costume. Clyde's throwing a halloween party! and Eric won't share what his costume is."

You're caught up.

"What's the fun in spoiling it? I'll help you with yours though if you want."

He shrugged.

"Both of you."

Clyde makes his way getting back up with a frown, but quickly hides it by faking a grin.

"That's right, it's gonna be the rootinest tootinest party this place has ever seen. And you're invited too, so don't even think about skipping it."

He points at the girls.

"Both of you."

Because it's more important to make sure the girls show up than other guys.

Lotsa talking. A small grin starts as Enya mentions going for costumes, but she shakes her head at the offer from Eric.

"Nah, I already have ideas of my own. Just got to get the stuff to make it perfect." It's then that she catches on to the fact that the guy who nearly faceplanted also said "rootinist toontinist," which causes her to pausse, mouth open for a second before she realizes what she's doing and shuts it.

Wow.

But now she can't get out. Yet. Sorry, she's already thinking it.

"Sounds like it could be fun. Where at?" Again, avoid people as she skirts around the table to skim over the magazines, looking back at Enya.

"What've you done before lately?" No repeats allowed.

"I'll be there!" she promises, before looking from Eric to Rebecca.

"I've done the standard monsters. I was thinking maybe I could be a--oh."

She shakes her head.

"No, no. If you're all keeping yours a secret I don't want to spoil mine either."

"Ugh!"

The taste of his own medicine! The most bitter of all medicines!

"Hmmmmm."

He starts to look from one girl to the next. Trying to think of what he knows about each of them. Challenge accepted.

"Pod 4. Yours truly lives there, along with.... uh.... other people."

Really, that's not important, so Clyde doesn't expand on it. Instead, he listens to the conversation for the moment, wracking his own brain to find the perfect costume for himself.

He must have a better one than a magician, which he's convinced is Eric's costume.

It would a tight squeeze if there were a lot of people and, considering her current company, Rebecca was banking on it. Time to start finding ways to bow out. She nods for now, more focused on Enya's costume ideas.

"Well, can't help if i don't know." A small gleam in her eyes as she adds, "Or we could try to figure out and go shopping for props and materials later." Halloween was worth it, right?

Oh. Right. The guy with the name she doesn't know. She looks back to her non-roomie. "And yours truly is...?"

"You tell me yours I'll tell you my ideas." she winks. "We can share in secret when we go shopping."

Secrets were more fun with another person.

"Alright, new plan. Us three. Group costume."

Best idea.

"Yes? Yes."

Clyde, in a not-so-subtle manner, steps in front of Eric during his suggestion.

"Me? I'm Clyyyyyde."

He extends a hand towards Rebecca for a handshake, complete with wiggling eyebrows.

"Deal." Roommies she likes! This is a good thing.

Unfortunately for Eric, her expression deadpans as Clyde steps forward, not missing a beat as she adds, "I'm not being a bunny girl, Eric." Apparently she's got the same idea as Clyde.

"Rebecca." Her brows raise further, hesitating only a moment before taking his hand with one of her own, gloved of course.  Rude much?

Enya just laughs at it all. Especially Rebecca's reluctance at being a bunny!

"Is that what we would have to be?"

"Of course not. I already know she wouldn't be down for that. You might, but I have a feeling we can do better than that."

He said with a mischievous grin. Unphased by Clyde stepping in front of him as he moves over to Enya and hooks an arm over her shoulder.

"Equal partners in it. The three of us."

"It's nice to meet you, Rebecca."

Clyde grins, still shaking.

"Very nice to meet you."

Oh great, one of those guys. Rebecca shakes his hand long enough to be polite before releasing it.

"Nice to meet you, too, Clyde." She pauses, remembering. "You were one of the ones near the front, right? During orientation."

"Alright! Does that mean we get to know your costume? Unless we're not matching you and doing something completely different?"

Either way she wants to know what it was.

"Did you want to match too, Clyde?"

Not to leave the guy out just 'cause he's not one of the roomies.

"Well yeah, if it is a group costume we would make them all together!"

He glances over at Clyde.

"Friendly heads up. Don't get too close to Rebecca."

Clyde lets go when she pulls back, nodding.

"I was!"

He sounds impressed that she remembers.

"That orientation was crazy, huh?"

After a second, he turns to look at Enya, smiling even wider.

"Well, I can hardly say no if you want me to join in, Enya."

And finally, to round out the triple conversation, he looks at Eric, eyes narrowing every so slightly.

"Why? She your girlfriend or something?"

She doesn't add that she remembers Clyde more for being in the front of the agitation the group experienced. He didn't really need to know. She raised her brows at Enya when Clyde's back was turned, but the girl was enjoying herself, so Rebecca didn't say anything.

The mention of Eric being her boyfriend causes her to choke on a laugh, though she doesn't elaborate. "Hardly."

Enya seems pleased that he wants to join in! But his question causes her to bring a hand to her lips like she's trying to hide them as she whispers loudly.

"Eric gave her a rose and wants to kiss her!"

Everyone can basically hear her.

Well he was already close and had his arm around her. So hearing her whisper he'd grin and lean in to kiss her again.

"I gave you a rose too."

"Eric does magic tricks," Rebecca offers as an explanation about the roses.
