I have headcanons for how the characters act on Halloween- a lot of these come from my good friend and fellow actor in the play, she doesn't have a tumblr but she is in our Weasel Hall discord server.
Badger - Doesn't go Trick or Treating, hands out candy instead
Mole - Dresses up as the basic Halloween costumes [vampire, Frankenstein's monster, etc], doesn't like being scared, likes the treats more than the tricks
Ratty - Often helps Badger hand out candy, sometimes goes Trick or Treating with Mole
Toad - Takes more than one candy from the bowls that say "take one", loves spooking people
Mrs Otter and Portia - Portia wants to go Trick or Treating alone, but Mrs Otter always goes with her so she doesn't lose her again, especially during the nighttime
Lesser and Chief pull shitty pranks on people, egg and/or TP Toad Hall, and take 2-3 candies from the take one bowl
Lesser somehow accidentally eggs and/or TPs Chief
Sheryl accidentally makes a kid cry
A kid in a somewhat scary costume accidentally makes Lesser cry
Lesser hates Halloween but pretends not to be scared because the Wild Wooders would tease him forever (they all already know- he isn't good at hiding it)
Also, Toad, Mole, and Ratty would go to a haunted house
Toad would get scared and scream "RATTY, HOLD ME"
Toad would scream and them Mole would scream and then Toad would scream louder
At the end Toad would act like he wasn't scared
"You should have seen your faces!"
"You literally said, and I quote, 'RATTY, HOLD ME'"
". . . That was one of the ghosts possessing me!"
And then they arrive back to Badger's place and it's like "Why are Mole and Toad shaking?"
Mole doesn't hide his fear but Toad does and is doing it horribly
Mole finds out Lesser hates Halloween and they spend some time watching Corpse Bride or The Nightmare Before Christmas
The guy with the car sets out the "take one" bowls
And watches in misery as people take more than one
The hedgehogs wear family costumes

I have so much affection for these models of mundane things found in Middle Kingdom tombs. What a beautiful glimpse into the every day lives of people 4000 years ago.

Kinda out of nowhere but honestly I don't understand why the musical fandom refers to Rat as "Ratty"
Like I understand that he is referred to as a Ratty through the musical and I can't speak for other adaptations but I do know he's referred to as Ratty in the book it's been a long time since I read the book so I don't know the exact circumstances of the nickname but I know a LOT of people who have only seen and only care about the musical but still call him Ratty
Again I understand that this is what he's referred as through the musical but at the beginning, he requested to be called rat.
Rat is one of the riverbankers I actually like more than the others and I feel like because everyone else refers to him as Ratty which comes off as long and enduring, I seem cold and uncaring when I call him Rat- which is what he requested to be calledq
I could understand calling him rat sometimes and Ratty others but that isn't what gets done
"But he gave up and let others call him ratty"
When I was in 6th grade, I went by two names, Toby, which was influenced by literal delusions I was suffering at the time, and a different name. A name I actually preferred go by more.
No one ever used that other name so I gave up. I let people just call me what they wanted. Now, years later, I still suffer the consequences. Both my dead name and name are names I hate and I'm too scared to try and pick a different one because people don't listen. They'll call me what they want to call me even if I ask them ti call me something else
I didn't give up because I was suddenly okay with it. I gave up because I don't want to fight.
I doubt Rat gave up because he was suddenly okay with it. He likely gave uo because he didn't want to argue and ruin the good mood
And maybe in mole and rats case, it would have been fine if I was just the mole calling him Ratty.
But its everyone
I can't imagine how infantilizing that must feel.

Who’s hungry? In southwest England, a kingfisher attempts to feed her chicks at their riverbank nest. Kingfishers, despite being exquisitely handsome, are born blind, bald, and ugly—recalling the ugly duckling story.
