[Why must you make it sound like they’re dealing with contraband, Junpei.

Fortunately Ryoji doesn’t have a snarky inside voice, so the sparkles in his eyes when he sees what Junpei is carrying are very much pure.]

You bought a lot! We’re sure to make something great with these!

[Does he know how exactly to make ears? Not really! But surely the tablet has an instructional video somewhere, right?]

The key to everything is confidence, Junpei-san! It doesn’t matter what exactly you wear, it’s all about looking like you would wear that kind of stuff all the time!

[It makes him feel like less of a turbo dweeb, thanks--

Anyway, oh boy, he's so genuinely enthusiastic, can Junpei get through this while maintaining his Sullen Default? Probably not, but that's for later.]

Is that really the key to Halloween costumes...? I mean, I guess the rest of this is just normal clothes, but still.

[A beat.]

Wait, I thought you were like, a Halloween novice.

[luneminary]

I am! [He's way too happy in admitting that.] But I figured what applies to looking good also applies to Halloween!

[He'll chisel away off Junpei's sullen grumpiness eventually!]

Alright, what kind of ears do wolves have, again? They have to be really pointy and fluffy, right?

[coolerjunpei]

[Junpei and his bad taste in clothes definitely doesn't know anything about looking good, so... yet again, he will simply follow Ryoji's lead in this. All he says to that is,]

Huh. [—but okay, wolf ears. Jesus. Okay.]

They're like dog ears but not floppy, right? So... fuzzy triangles? Uh, I didn't bring any scissors.

[luneminary]

Don't worry, I have some!

[Let's just pretend Ryoji is so excited for this that he's like overly prepared with the arts and crafts. So he brings out not one, but two scissors!]

We can start practicing ears first! And then we can use the best two fuzzy triangles we can make.

[Time to roll an arts and crafts check -]

[coolerjunpei]

[Of course he has some, Junpei thinks, as if bringing scissors to an arts and crafts activity is, like, the nerdy thing to do--]

Sure. Well, uh... here, then.

[He hands over one... sheet... of fake craft fur in exchange for one of the scissors, then considers the other piece of fake fur and what the easiest way to make believable triangle-ears would be. Hmm. Is he going to do this freehand, without even pretending like he's measuring or marking anything?

Absolutely. Here he goes. The first ear is already too much like a very skinny pizza slice from the first snip--]
