Spooktober 2020: How is babby feared

[Reinholdt]

Since she hasn't really missed a Spooktober party and felt like she needs to go out, Harley has come here to this one, too. Her hair is (unusually) pink, but her skin tone hasn't changed - she didn't want to have to go spend the time finding new makeup - so it doesn't completely match her outfit or hair. She's basically wearing a white cloak with pink trim (and a pink gem as the clasp), black crop top and gloves (with a long-sleeved tight undershirt or something beneath) and a pink-and-white skirt. It looks okay. And in her arms, of course, is a baby. The baby has lighter skin, white hair both catlike and rabbitlike(?) white ears (with pink tips), and a fluffy white tail.

Sure, she feels a little self-conscious about this outfit - she got it specifically for this - but, honestly, she's glad to be out and doing something.

Reinholdt follows Harley in, feeling just as, if not much more self-conscious. His outfit is a matching pink and white though he's wearing a remarkably short skirt, knee high boots and what he can only guess is a halter top? It shows far too much of his chest and abs for his liking. In a way, he's quite thankful for the gaudy giant ribbons and oversized pink wand that do what little they can to draw attention away from his exposed skin. Still he tends to avoid eye contact for the most part.

"This is... a nice place," Rein idly comments.

If a group of lions is called a pride, then surely a pack of catgirls must be a shame.
Or a cyborg's dating pool.
A shame comes to the party, four strong. One of them has carefully applied makeup to her face to look younger and more two-dimensional, like a child's drawing. She has a big, brown, poofy wig on underneath a pointy red headpiece. She's wearing a red t-shirt with an angry cat face screenprinted in the middle and ripped maroon shorts. Her natural cat ears and tail are red.
"Wait, so, like... why am I the cartoon kid again?"
The second catgirl is in a darker costume. Black headpiece shaped like the others', black lipstick, black choker, black dress cut low to full fatale effect, black nail polish on her claws, and black stiletto heels. She's wearing a red-violet colored wig that falls a bit past her shoulders and fake pearl earrings clipped to her feline ears. Her natural cat ears and tail are blue, because she refused to dye them to fit the character.
"Because Leah insisted on the costume that showed the least skin, I called dibs on this one the second I saw it, and we can't keep letting Rachel take things nobody else wants, even if she says it's fine. Besides, it looks cute on you."

" 's not my fault there was only one decently dressed choice. Rebekkah got to pick the theme." Leah says, walking in behind them. She's wearing a snappy burgundy suit with a draped untied tie and a pair of fingerless gloves. She was wearing sunglasses, but has taken them off, much to Rachel's chagrin. Not worth wearing those.

"You have to wear them! It's purrt of the meowtfit!" Rachel insists, the only one to have actually have colored her skin orange and attempted to match the character identity perfectly. She's wearing a red outfit with short skirt and a horde emblem emblazoned on the front, practically screaming eighties cartoon.

"Whatever. Let's just begin Operation: She-Ra." Said Operation was not discussed with Rebekkah at all, because it is all about finding Rebekkah a cute blonde girl to meet and/or date. At least, that's Leah's goal. Whether Sarah and Rachel even bother is another story.

Another group with themed costumes also arrives, at another time. The woman is wearing a closely tailored black suit over a red dress shirt with a loose black tie, tight black pants with a devil tail hanging from the back, and sensible black shoes. Her hair is white, with bangs above the eyes and two tendrils framing the face while the rest falls down her back. Tall white horns poke upwards on her head in front of a thin hairband with black spikes pointing almost as high. Her irises are blood red in color and a black beauty mark stands out on her pale skin beneath her left eye. A silver glyph pinned to her lapel hums with magic, for those with keen ears.
The second she walks in she is forced to stop and keep three little girls from running off. The triplets are wearing identical costumes of red dress shirts with black vests and pants. Devil tails are hooked to the back of their belts. Their hair is long and white, with fluffy dog ears sticking up from the top. Their irises have also been magically turned red for the night, although how well any of the costume enchantments and illusions will hold up to children being children remains to be seen.
"Hold on, pups, we should take a look around first. Right, dear?"

Last in is Reinholdt, wearing an unbuttoned white suit with a red undershirt and a pair of sunglasses. "How are they supposed look around if they don't ge-gah!" Rein trips over one of the jack-o-lanterns on the ground. He keeps on his feet at least, the incident no more than a stutter. Normally it's pretty hard to trip over the clearly lit up obstacles, but it turns out sunglasses in this ambiance is not the best. "If they don't get to run around?"

That IS a pretty efficient way of looking around, if not a particularly safe method.
