Who gets married at midnight on Halloween? I mean really, who does that? Rory and Astrid's mother, apparently. "The witching hour" β Jeez, since when did normalcy slip through the grasp of her entire family tree?
She'd met you only yesterday when she crashed her bike through your fence and smacked her head on the trunk of your treehouse. In all normal instances, Astrid probably wouldn't take the opportunity to spend her favorite holiday with some stranger, but the present was far from normal.
Her grandfather Charles just passed, and now her mom was getting married, and Astrid swears she's the only sane person in this family.
You'd given her a little safe haven though, at least for tonight.
"Woah," She murmurs the second she steps foot in your room, doing a 360 in the center to take everything in. Her costume isn't anything too elaborate. She's Marie Curie (after the radiation poisoning).
Astrid can't help but appreciate all the Halloween decorations you set up. "You really went all out," She snorts as she turns around to look at you.
