Halloween Land

Ethan's friends from down the street got him into LEGO Star Wars over the summer. He had originally only gotten the lightsaber because he was curious after riding some of the Star Wars rides at Disney World but since then he had seen all the movies, watched the animated TV shows, and played some of the video games as well. He was even reading a few of the extended universe novels that he got from his school's library. 

Claire was happy to see him interested in something other kids his age liked. It gave her hope that he would grow up to be a perfectly ordinary person someday despite his checkered past. 

Ethan had been doing very well since he came to live with her and Alex. There weren't any more violent episodes at all. Those had all been related to struggling in the foster homes. Having a positive male role model who had been through the same training he had helped a lot.
