Aww Opal and MC have a Halloween tradition <3
the clash between loving this as an adult and knowing my teenage MCs are going to die of embarrassment like mum why, you're not cool
Everyone is saying darkness but my first thought was light. Like, you can't look at the sun lol.
Now that I see other people with the answer, 'darkness' feels like the obvious pick. ... But I did just brainfart on the riddle and go 'I mean, there are a lot of trees in this town, and if you're surrounded by them it's kinda hard to see very far, so..." ... I have a feeling Opal/Mom is used to her kid being this way by now. xD
Even if any of my MCs stick around or go out to do anything other than going Trick-or-Treating, they'd still do Opal's riddle. As far as they'd figure, it's a Halloween tradition they have with Opal. 🎃🍬🍬🍬😁
Omg im so excited for this moment ❤️
Darkness! 🖤
Darkness comes to mind first but it could fog too??
Fog was my first thought! I'd imagine darkness is the correct answer though, fog isn't necessarily "found all over" the way darkness is
It’s gotta be darkness!!
Is it darkness??
Darkness! Oh, I am getting SO much candy for Halloween.
This alteready looks plenty of fun! The first halloween moment was alteready great, can't wait to play this one aswell!
