Last year, Lute, a pegasus foal living in Canterlot, spent too much time lollygagging around, and got almost no candy on Nightmare Night as a result. He learned a valuable lesson then: time is candy. This year, he doesn't care about costumes, parties, the spirit of the season. He simply wants to get as much candy as possible, as quickly as possible.
But that is not in the true spirit of Nightmare Night...and the Nightmare does not approve...
A Lunaverse story, but barely. The cast is essentially entirely OCs.
