Hunter hadn't thought he was one for mass socializing but he didn't mind participating in things with Gwen's roommates as much as he thought he would. The jack-o-lantern carving competition was actually pretty fun.
Mostly, people were laughing at how bad each other's jack-o-lanterns were. Gwen's was amazing though. She had watched a bunch of videos on how to carve only into the surface and create amazing works of art and ended up making hers look like a very detailed scene involving a witch, a cauldron, a cat, and a desk covered in spell books.
Becca said she had called it and Gwen shrugged with a bit of a sheepish smile on her face, confessing that she had no idea how to carve a jack-o-lantern the normal way so she had researched alternatives. Derek thought this was cheating but no one agreed with him.
They said if he wanted to, he could have done the same thing but it probably wouldn't have helped him much. His jack-o-lantern was a bit of a mess.
