The wrong outfit, a place at the table
Deb reads Halloween quiz and thinks costumes. Everyone else arrives in ordinary clothes. Standing in a witch hat and cape, she nearly turns straight round and goes home. Sue pulls out a chair beside her and asks for help with the music round. Deb gets some answers right and others wrong, then enjoys the stories and arguments between questions. Recounting the evening to Rosie, she notices what leaving would have meant missing. She checks the dress code in her plans for next time, but this time the hat stays on, even in the photograph.
What Rosie brings to the conversation
Rosie hears the wish to disappear as well as the funny detail of a cape knot that will not undo. The story ends with Deb enjoying a place at an ordinary table, without needing the right outfit or a perfect quiz score.

Deb: I arrived at the quiz dressed as a witch. Everyone else was in jeans.
Deb: I nearly went straight home. Then Sue pulled out the chair beside her.
Rosie: Hard to disappear in that hat.
Deb: 'Halloween quiz.' I thought costumes. They thought questions. I'd spent twenty minutes tying the cape on. Could not undo the knot.
Rosie: So your entrance had a minimum stay.
Deb: I kept asking if I looked ridiculous. Sue said, 'A bit. Sit down. We need you for music.'
Rosie: Did you know the answers?
Deb: Two. Got three completely wrong. Nobody sent the witch home.
Deb: That's what I nearly missed. Sue telling a story between rounds. Everyone arguing about a song. I didn't have to spend the evening explaining the hat.
Rosie: And next Halloween?
Deb: I'm checking the dress code. But the hat stayed on. Even in the photo.
Rosie: Join us for more Rosie and Deb stories.
