He held onto the hand a little tighter when he realised how many people were about, though, and the grin fades ever so slightly as he walked a little closer to his guardian's side. There were lots of other kids... other small people his size, in many other costumes. The little boy looked at everyone curiously, shying away whenever someone passed too close, and looked up at Lucas when the man ruffled his hair.

Nod. There were people carrying cupcakes and sweets. He definitely wanted some of those.

At the tug on his hand, Lucas looked down, watching the wings flutter behind Aiden. "Liking the wings, kiddo?" They'd gotten better at this communication thing, but even so, Lucas quite often asked Aiden questions that could be answered with a nod or a shake. He crouched down, though, as the boy drew nearer whenever anyone came too close, even as he nodded about wanting food.

Getting himself on eye-level, he smiled supportively. "I'm right here and wont' go anywhere. And if you want to go, all you have to do is let me know, ok?" This was a lot of people and Lucas was worried about Aiden getting overwhelmed. But, well, they were going to have to do stuff like this at some point. Might as well start now, while Lucas had the full attention to devote to Aiden.

December would... change things.

Standing again, Lucas started over toward the food. "Why don't you go and pick out something for us both?"
