Nostalgic Halloween Costumes: Memories from My Childhood

By DEBORA RAGLAND BUERK,Writer, editor, andsometimes family historian. The Write Stuff. My mother sewed costumes for me and my sister in grade school. We got to wear our costumes to school on Halloween. I remember a bunny rabbit with a big powder puff sewn on for my tail. A black cat and Mom drew on whiskers with her eyebrow pencil. It rained many Halloweens. When that happened, in the…

“Costume shopping”

Wednesday: I cannot believe Ms Rowling is still trying to change the script after Mr Burton gave me full authority to make my own modifications

Harley: indeed. As I stated at the first reading Hela fits my character much better than Helen. I of course first read the script as Helen and it just didn’t feel right. I almost didn’t take the part because of it. But Mr Burton reached to me. He read your story and immediately wanted me for the role of Hela

Wednesday: -stopping in front of a store that made her uncomfortable- Hawte Kewture. A dystopian hellscape. Enid shops here. Too much lace and color for my tastes. But you might find an appropriate dress for LaLlorona

Enid: Wenny? Are you going to my favorite shop without me?

Harley: -laughing as Wednesday cringed- hehe. Enid! You can help me find stuff to turn Ellie into Pippi Longstocking! Ms Rowling had the costume department dress Ellie as Barbie

Enid: what?

Wednesday: I did actually have Barbie in my original story. Pippi Longstocking makes my ears and eyes bleed.

Enid: it’s a joke. Harley calls Pippa, Pippie

Wednesday: in that case, I approve. You help Harley. I’ll see if I can find a dress for La Llorona

Enid: Pippa let me read her script for episode two. The one Teariki Waipapa is directing? Er.. um. You had better talk to Mr Burton and see if he can get you a copy with the notes he added

Wednesday: is it that bad?

Harley: I haven’t gone over that one yet

Enid: let’s just say Helen dressed as Rainbow Honeysuckle for Halloween is not that bad.

Wednesday’s phone went off. The ringtone , the Exorcist theme. She knew exactly who it was

-Hello, mother. To what do I deserve the torture of a phone call? I do thank you for not FaceTiming so I do not have to look at your beautiful face

-Wednesday? Have you seen the notes Mr Waipapa has made to his director’s script?

-You have seen it? Enid has told me Pippa let her read hers

-Oh! It’s hideous and NOT in a good way. Mr Burton made him share it with me. And the Halloween scene from episode one?

-oh. We are in the process of fixing that as we speak.

-I shall talk to Mr Burton about Mr Waipapa’s notes. Suggest that he be removed. Do I have your approval?

-you and father know me best.

-oh and Grandmama and Granny would like you and the fencing team facing Ilvermorny to gather for a meeting with them

-tell them to come to practice tomorrow. Goodbye mother

-goodbye Wednesday

Enid: I will never get used to the fact that your mother’s ring tone is the theme from The Exorcist. But you must let me take a better pics for your lock screen and wallpaper please?

Wednesday: No. I am quite fond of the photos I took of you

Harley: May I see?

Enid: Wednesday, No! -sighs as Wednesday shares with Harley- not one of my best moments

Harley: wait. -going through her photos- Heh. I snapped this of Pippie. My little cousins were chasing her around the yard. -shows a pic of Pippa running into a tree and -looking for another photo- My little sister took this video of me tripping over our dog and falling into the pool

Enid: At least it’s not falling head first into a trash can

Someone called out to Enid “Yo! Enid”

Ajax: hey. What are you doing here? Like you need another new dress

Enid: -feigning offense- We are actually here trying to fix the awful costumes Ms Rowling had made for Hela aka Helen. And Harley is looking for a new costume for Ellie as a joke

Ajax was suddenly very shy upon seeing Harley

Harley: I don’t bite

Enid: -laughing at Ajax- you were fine at Girls Night

Ajax: I absolutely loved you in Shriek 5 & 6. Are you going to be in 7?

Harley: Thank you. I hope so. But it depends on the script. There were some things I did not like about how they wrote Sara the second time around. And my schedule of course. I go into filming Tequila Sunset almost right after I wrap here

Ajax: Brad

Harley: exactly

Ajax: I wanted her to be one of the banshees!!

Harley: for real, right? -she saw someone walking outside the shop- hide me. Jackson is out there

Enid and Ajax hid Harley from view as Harley noticed her phone ringing

-hello yes. No I haven’t. That was this morning? No I’m not filming today. WHAT? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? You’re serious? Oh. My. God. Yes. Thank you

Jackson hearing Harley’s screams walked into the shop. Harley was in tears pacing. Realizing her phone was on silent. So many missed calls and messages

Jackson: hey sweetie? What’s wrong

[agentoli]

whether it's canon or your au, what do you think the agents, Sim troopers, and ai would dress up as for Halloween? I especially see Wash, Caboose, Tucker, Sarge, Theta, Omega, Gamma, York, South, and Connie being gung-ho about it.

Oo!! Ill do this for my au!!!

Blood Gulch

Carolina: The boys had to pay her just so they could put a cheap cat ear headband on her. She did allow Maine to do face paint afterward and vehemently defends it to anyone who might make fun of it.

Wyoming: A vampire. He puts way to much effort into it and ends up unable to wash off the face paint for a week.

Maine: Swamp Monster. Yes he has glowing eyes. Yes the Red Team collectively pissed themselves when they saw him from across the canyon.

Washington: A glow-in-the dark skeleton. Basic, but he insists he ALWAYS goes as a skeleton. (He admits it's because it was tradition that he and his sisters all matched on halloween, and that skeleton was broad enough to have fun with every year)

York: Werewolf, secretly stoked once he sees Carolina with cat ears. He has deluded himself into thinking they are in some sort of couples costume.

North: An angel. (Its bad quality like from party city)

South: A devil. (also party city quality)

Texas: The grim reaper. She has a really creepy skull mask covered in old (hopefully fake) blood, and delights herself by scaring her team.

CT: She's got regular clothes on save for a pumkin hoodie, citing how she wasn't allowed to celebrate Halloween as a kid and doesn't get the hype.

Freelancer

Church: Will not dress up, no matter how many times Tucker tries to get him in a couples costume. Halloween is for babies and he is way to cool for it.

Omega: On the other hand, Church's AI dresses up like Beetlejuice. (He really wants Church to be Lydia)

Tucker: A vampire, but sexy. He wanted Church to be a vampire hunter, but that didn't end well. He has those fake fangs in that give you a horrible lisp.

Caboose: Rudolph the red nosed reigndeer. Yes he knows its not Christmas, he just really likes that one stop motion film.

Sigma: He is dressed like a court jester. Point and laugh.

Sarge: Uncle Sam. He would've let off fireworks if Donut hadn't confiscated them instantly.

Gamma: Also, Uncle Sam. He makes fake fireworks :)

Simmons: Data from Star Trek. It's his favorite character! (He's just like me for real!)

Delta: He does not dress up. That is illogical. (Nah, he's Spock LMAO)

Grif: He wears black and calls it a day. He's just here for the candy tbh.

Theta: Headless Horseman! He replaced the horse with a big holographic dog, but Grif will punch anyone who tries to point out the inaccuracy.

Lopez: They covered him in cardboard and painted him like Optimus Prime

Donut: A fried egg.

Doc: A piece of toast.

Kaikaina: Bacon.

Iota: A nurse! She dressed up just like Doc McStuffins!

Eta: Pippi Longstockings!

Lopez 2.0: Cardboard costume Megatron.

Others:

Florida: A zombie with way too much gore. Like, stomach churning, genuinely upsetting amounts. Has been asked to leave the function.

Georgia: Bee from Bee and Puppycat! They have a plushie of puppycat, though!

Ohio: Dorothy from Wizard of Oz

Idaho: The Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz

Iowa: The Scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz

[randybutternubber]

Heyyyyyyy do you have any funny head canons on the children :-9 if they squabble and stuff in your opinion. Give me the sillies !!!!! (I do too but I wanna hear urs)

YOU HAVE OPENED THE GATES OF HELL PREPARE FOR MY BORDERLINE SEVEN PAGE ESSAY ON THESE RANDOM FUCKING CHILDREN

I decided to do the ones that get less attention in general, especially since I have the most thoughts on them

HCs under cut because I may have gone overboard with the length

Ghost kid

Best friends with a batmin ball that had a very poorly drawn face on it from the age of six to eight.

Sebbo (spoon girl) buried the batmin ball using a spoon as a shovel after it got neutered by the barber (he thought it was a bug and shat his pants)

Not a native of the nowhere and was taken to the nowhere on Halloween, hence the ghost costume

Lost their arm pretty quickly after being taken to the Nowhere. he’s quite a friendly child and is very compassionate towards animals, but unfortunately, this has its downsides as not all animals in the Nowhere want help.

Friends with Sebbo

Has been squatting in houses since day 1 of living in the Nowhere and has no plans to stop

Would go CRAZY for squishmallows

Doesn’t have well formed empathy/sympathy for humans but is super compassionate towards animals

Zero concept of gender and doesn’t care what you call them, he just want to pet your dog

Nonverbal but has very expressive body language

Spoon girl

Her name is sebbo (based off of game files)

She sneezes like a middle aged divorced golf dad and due to her nose bleed these sneezes are NOT victimless

LEGENDARY rage tantrums

Literally only wants to watch gen 1 my little pony, Formula One, or a very specific documentary about some random Swedish sheep wool factory

Swedish

If you compare her to pippy longstockings you will end up needing to go to urgent care for a rabies shot

Calls ghost kid Ande (sounds like Andeh) which means spirit in Swedish. (His file name is actually spöke for anyone wondering, which also means ghost/spirit in Swedish. The only reason I’m not giving him the Sebbo naming treatment is that spöke absolutely does not sound like it’s spelled (sounds like Spurkeh) and Ande actually sounds like a name. I’m a quarter swedish and have a very Swedish family on my white side so I got the most incomprehensible Swedish lessons in the car ever, so please don’t roast me in the reblogs if I got this wrong, I remember like five words and this is one of them, same thing with Korean😭

Living embodiment of “ANDE WE’RE 10 NOW, WE SAY CRAP, NOT POOP”

Broke one of her legs at some point in the Nowhere and ended up in the hospital (HC based off of concept art where she was in a wheelchair and using crutches)

Has severe trauma revolving around doctors and medical stuff

Has never seen another ginger in her entire life but will fight to be the alpha

Warrior cats kid

Expert at digging and climbing out of holes, THE CHILDREN YEARN FOR THE MINES!!!

Rusty

Has a cleft lip

This isn’t a HC but something that not a lot of people realize; he has a lisp

Only reason I’m not drawing him as ginger because of his name is because I also designed Noone as ginger and he lost in a 1v1 to a rabid cabbage patch kid. He’s been through enough

He’s around 14

Very lithe

Despite being a trapeze and tightrope performer, he is TERRIFIED of heights, making his experience at the circus even worse

The dummy has been malding over Rusty for a ridiculously long period of timeand bro had no fucking idea and nobody even knows the reason why 💀

Also a warrior cats kid but kept in on the downlow. Yes he did name himself Rusty after firestar but if you tell anyone he will cry

Noone

A nice kid but will deadass ask some of the most insensitive questions and has NO idea. Also verbally cooked a middle aged man and spent like a whole episode sassing him so she can definitely be mean if she wants to

Also has really severe medical trauma along with trauma from being paraded around on TV because she was the first person to be cured of whatever the shit water sickness is

Her real name was Ruth, but once she started forgetting her parents (they basically ditched her anyways 😭) she started just using Noone as her real name

Master of inappropriately prolonged periods of intense eye contact

Really dislikes/is afraid of dolls/dummies because of what happened to Rusty/in JuJubee’s toyshop

Very untrusting of people post Nowhere abduction because of how Otto treated her and because of the ferryman. Plus basically every kid she met in TSON was met with a terrible fate (Goo kid is probably alive but she doesn’t know that)

Autism (all these children got some sort of neurodivergence though, I mean just look at them)

WORST BACKSEAT DRIVER EVER (ASKED TO LEAVE THE ROWBOAT)

Has a few scars on her face from her right before she had a seizure when getting clockwork oranged. She tried to take the mri suction thingies off her head but she ended up scratching up her face in her panic

For the Halloween asks: 9 from General, and 6 from fun scenarios :D

9. What's your favorite Halloween tradition?

I love making costumes! I have a running gag of picking obscure book characters and then nobody knows what I'm attempting to be but I've done Pippi Longstocking as a Little kid, Will Treaty from Rangers Apprentice, and Vin Mistborn more recently (although I didn't actually cut up my cloak only strips because I wanted to reuse it so I pinned strips to the exterior)

I wore that Vin cosplay to a "costume party" that my chemical engineering department threw and then I was the only student in costume. The professors did a group Star Wars costume though it was very wholesome! I got a bag of candy for a prize because I won by default but everyone was impressed by the cloak.

I should probably figure out my costume for this year!

6. If you could invite any three fictional characters to a Halloween party, who would you invite?

Oooh can I pick my own characters?

If it's not a Halloween where the Unseelie Court is doing their Septennial Tithe to Hell, the Powers and friends from the Seelie Court go trouping in the human world to mess with people and have fun. It's mostly harmless but I would have a blast hanging out with them.

Jack of Fables is literally a ghost, Quercu is a changeling shape shifter with a mischievous streak, and the Twins know way too much about medieval weaponry so they'd have the best HEMA gear kind of costumes. The twins switch bodies so one of them would come to the party and one would go trick or treating with their younger siblings but they'd switch whenever they got bored so I'd get to hang out with both anyways.

[scottishaccentsareawesome]

Hangman: This is worse than the time Phoenix and I showed up to that Halloween party wearing the same costume! And I STILL say I was the better Pippi Longstocking...!

[procrastinationstationn]

If you dress up for halloween, what was you most favorite/ most memorable costume?

favorite costume as a kid is maybe eeyore (from winnie the pooh) or pippi longstocking

and then as an adult, i was a pizza one year! made it out og cardboard and made a pizza slice bra out of it skdjdkdk

[lampmanliveblogs]

The impending disaster is delayed by the rest of the kids going places, doing stuff, beginning by asking around in this quaint little shop. I do like the ”Ghosts will haunt shoplifters” sign. I also spied another Hexas Holdem’ cameo on a table. Just how many of those bloody things did Eda dump in the Human Realm? Or maybe those are unmagical replicas, since the ones Jacob gave away became popular.

Anyways, moving on to this shot, I do notice Gus looking through that barrel of gems. Heh, gems in Gravesfield. I bet that doesn’t happen often. I bet there aren’t a whole lot of teenage criminal masterminds running around there either.

Also, that is a Ness costume to the left there on the wall. Which makes me think the other two ones are references as well, hm… I wanna say the witch costume on the right is from… Little Witch Academia?

I just looked it up, and yup, that’s totally Little Witch Academia. That leaves the middle one, which I have no idea what it could be a reference to. I’m not even sure if that’s a bow, or cat ears. Or maybe this is a Blake Belladonna situation, and it’s actually both.

Oh, and the shop is called The Magic Circle. Insert Engelsfors Trilogy reference here:____________________________.

Oh, now this is a beautiful frame to accidentally pause on. I just had to include it.

That candy that looks like it’s levitating. Willow looking like she’s about to tip backwards. Vee psyching herself up before a boxing match. The librarian experiencing some Grade A secondhand embarrassment. The girl with the Batman logo on her shirt. Amity faceplanting for the second time this episode. Seriously, that can not be good for your face Mittens.

But hey, let’s look on the bright side. Now Hunter and Amity have something else to bond over: facial scar and a broken nose respectively.

And while I’m paused: I also love Willow paying for the costume with a snail, like she’s Pippi Longstocking with her gold coins.

Willow & Gus also both take notice of the statues of the Wittebane brothers. They exchange knowing glances, both of them undoubtedly seeing the resemblance to Hunter… though at this point only Gus has the pieces to begin putting the puzzle together.

And thus one of the shows longest running gags comes to full circle as we finally see one of these demonic giraffes that much fuzz has been made about. Honestly? I don’t see what it was about, the fuzz. This looks fairly normal by Demon Realm standard. Unless the giraffe people were known for being unusually brutal and violent, I’m not sure why the kids are so spooked by this.

I do love this though, because giraffes have obviously been around on Earth long enough to be considered normal animals by humans. And surely someone somewhere at some point would realize that ”Oh shit, these long necked creatures can unfold their faces. That’s weird.”

Even if giraffes don’t do it in front of humans, surely someone dissecting a giraffe would find it. This leads me to believe that yes, it’s weird, but still considered to be an as of yet unexplained quirk in an others normal an unmagical animal.

It was at this point I went on a long tangent about evolution and biology, and I cut that out because this post is long enough as is. Let’s just say that giraffe taxonomy would be a huge pain for scientists in this universe to figure out.

Called it.

I do believe I said so even as far back as Yesterday’s Lie that we would return back to the Gravesfield Historical Society. I also believe I said I dreaded seeing Jacob Hopkins again, for obvious reasons. Though based on the sign, we might be spared that unpleasantness. Good, Philip is already sneaking around, and one crazy person is enough for this episode.

I’m assuming the previous managers of the Gravesfield Historical Society came back from their vacation, found the crazy man who had broken into the building while they were away, and called the police on him.

Even though this is a shot from behind, you can clearly see Vee looking nervous and uncomfortable, and of course she’d be. The last time she stepped foot (eh… tail?) inside this building, all her worst nightmares came true, all at once. She was captured and put back inside a cage. She was going to be cut open and killed by a madman. Her cover was blown to Camila. All in all, it was a rather stressful thirty minutes or so she had in there.

Ey, it’s the fortune teller from Yesterday’s Lie! Based on a comment or two I got, I had a sneaking suspicion they’d appear again, and would you look at that, I was right. It sure feels good.

And not to toot my own horn too much, but the nickanme I gave them back in Yesterday’s Lie was Mira. Which has the same first letter (M), same last letter (a), and the same number of syllables (2) as Masha’s real name. Which might not sound all that impressive, but try guessing the first and last letter, as well as the number of syllables in my (real) name. If any of you are correct, I’ll… be very scared.

So, are you the new new management here, Masha? I’d think not, since, well… you’re what, fourteen? Fifteen, maybe? I know Jacob didn’t set the bar high, but you know it’s a sad state of affairs when an actual child makes for a better manager at a historical society than a grown adult man.

[hoodie-prince-kid]

“Fencing Practice”

Xavier: so where is Wednesday? She’s late

Bianca: she’s meeting with the directors and executive producers in Jericho

Xavier: the Netflix show is getting to her head. Hanging out with Harley and Pippa. What do you think of that, Enid?

Enid: I’m excited for Wednesday. This show. Her first novel. And she’s actually made a friend on her own!

Xavier: you’re just saying that to hide your disappointment that you’re replaceable

Granny Frump: who is replacing my granddaughter’s ray of sunshine?

Xavier: what are these two old ladies doing at our fencing practice? Bianca, are you going to tell them to leave? Shall I see them out?

Grandmama Addams: now that is no way to speak to your elders

Bianca: ah! Hester, Esmeralda! Thank you for coming. Wednesday should be here soon

Granny Frump: yes. My daughter informed me that Wednesday is having quite the argument with Mr Waipapa

Grandmama Addams: for now, please introduce us to the the squad

Bianca: of course. We won’t finalize the squad until closer to the actual day of the event. But I can at least introduce the team you helped when we visited Ilvermorny

Granny Frump: I remember coming here, to the fencing room with my girls. Ophelia started dancing. Morticia was so angry at her disrespecting the room

Grandmama: I was disappointed that Gomez had no interest in fencing despite his love for it.

Bianca called up the squad that traveled to Ilvermorny. Xavier tried to come up

Bianca: Xavier you were not part of the squad. -turning to the two witches- Ilvermorny uses a unique form other than them cheating with magic.

Xavier: I should have been on the team! You know it! Just because you’re afraid of Wednesday! Mrs Frump, tell Wednesday I should be on the squad!

Entering the room Morticia spoke

Morticia: ahh. The fencing room. I haven’t set foot in here since my days at Nevermore. Hasn’t changed much. I see your grandmothers are here already Wednesday

Enid ran towards the exhausted looking Wednesday and gave her a big hug

Enid: was it that bad? -not letting go-

Wednesday: it was terrible. Mr Waipapa made everything a farce. He signed off on Mr Johnson’s ideas of bigger and more bigger. Agreed to all of Ms Rowling’s rainbow friendship is magic ideas

Enid: oh no. So what happened?

Morticia: Hunter was on Wednesday’s side stating that all the changes made less stunt work and more CGI. Harley was on Wednesday’s side stating that Mr Burton gave her a copy of Wednesday’s original story and went out on a limb by stating that Ms Rowling’s script was a travesty turning what was a glorious macabre story of a group of uneasy friends forming a strong bond into a happy go lucky outing of friends

Enid: oh wow. Go Harley

Morticia: Mr Johnson and Ms Rowling called for Harley to be fired. Mr Burton ordered Ms Rowling to leave the set. Asked Wednesday if she had the time to rewrite the scripts. She said she does not enjoy screenwriting but Frankie does so Mr Burton gave him a copy of Wednesday’s story to read.

Enid: sounds like a mess.

Morticia: it is. Again Mr Johnson and Ms Rowling not wanting to believe that my Wednesday is a shy socially awkward 17 year old

Grandmama: -having walked over to her daughter in law and granddaughter- shall I cast a spell on them? I could whip up a couple of potions

Wednesday: -reluctantly pulling herself out of her girlfriend’s embrace- that will not be necessary, Grandmama but I will keep it in mind

Enid: so are Ms Rowling and Mr Johnson off the project? What about Mr Waipapa?

Wednesday: nothing set yet. We found the best dress for La Llorona. The makeup crew is working on the makeup look. And Pippi Longstocking. The costume department has a perfect wig. But let us get this meeting about Ilvermorny started

Xavier: can you please get me in? I want to be a part of the show

Morticia: about using the town’s people as extras? Mr Burton has come up with a scenario. He gave me the script pages

Wednesday: -taking the pages from her mother and reading- oh? A Halloween version the town square instead of a party? That makes sense. I approve. Costumes don’t have to be provided. Everyone can come up with their own.

Morticia: just what Mr Burton said

There was an explosion sound. Bianca and Xavier panicked

Wednesday: oh bother. What does Pugsley want? -she opened her text from her brother to see drone footage of him walking down the block with Phineas, Bianca and Flower in line behind him. Their neighbor Mrs Bucket outside planting flowers way too early in the season. Shrieking seeing the skunks. Shooing Pugsley away and swiping at the furry trio with a nearby rake and promptly getting sprayed. She showed the video to Enid-

Enid: oh dear! Go skunkies! Wait?! Do you think Pugsley can bring the skunkies when he comes for Parents Day? I miss them

Wednesday: we would have to ask Principal Thropp

Morticia: I will ask Elphaba

Xavier: wait what? Skunks?

Wednesday: yes. Pugsley, Enid and I adopted three baby skunks. We named them Phineas, Flower and Bianca

Bianca: you named your skunk after me? Why am I not surprised?

[agnesandhilda]

for YEARS I’ve had this idea for a lupin iii episode where the crew goes undercover at an actual drag show for. reasons idk. the premise doesn’t matter the whole franchise is a backdrop for thief slapstick

I bet you anything that arsene “can create disguises that are indistinguishable from the real person being copied” lupin the third understands regular makeup as well as sfx stuff---like he must, if his work is that convincing, right? he’s got to put makeup on the masks to match people who wear it, not to mention the more specialized work that goes into changing someone’s appearance so convincingly. so anyway my idea is that he ropes the rest of the gang into creating personas to blend in with the performers (except fujiko who also knows makeup/disguise work and was totally down to do this herself) and makes sure they looks good, but like, everybody still has their own spin on it

MY TAKES ARE:

jigen should have a cowgirl shtick, ostensibly this would be because that way he could pass off his guns as props but really I just think it would be fun. I don’t have a solid pun name for him yet but I’m thinking something like kayla mitty (calamity). I think he’d start out looking nice but would get grungier and grungier over the course of the episode as he gets into more comedic fights and progressively fucks up his costume. I’m thinking a wig w/braids, (like a pippi longstocking situation), daisy dukes, lots of fringe, and of COURSE a cowboy hat and boots. 

goemon is big on samurai chivalry and canonically feels ashamed when he crossdresses, so I thought it would be funny if he only agrees to it after negotiating down to the tamest drag persona possible? like he’s basically just impersonating a real historical japanese noblewoman, (”if I have to be a lady, I am going to be a PROPER LADY”) and he sticks out like a sore thumb. I haven’t decided who specifically he should be impersonating, yet, but mr. chivalrous-hero, easily-flustered-by-women would absolutely be blindsided by the drag show atmosphere. he bombs the lipsync because he’s unwilling to commit to the bit until he gets a heroic second wind and ends up barely squeaking by. 

fujiko is an open-shirted bimboy drag king, like the male love interest in a shoujo manga, and she gets REALLY into playing a casanova. like weaponizing her sex appeal is her main things as a thief, but doing it in the boysuit just hits different. idk. if you get it you get it. 

alternatively, I was thinking of her playing a gruff, hypermasculine boor but like, in a funny camp way. like in a village people way. but I just don’t like that idea as much

and lupin just brings back miss marie but with a more straightforward marilyn monroe-esque femme fatale slant. the judges consider this the least creative persona (”marilyn? come on! everyone’s done that”) and pan her, and she lipsyncs a song that’s comedically full of hints about her identity as lupin. “material girl” by madonna, or “why don’t you do right?” from who framed roger rabbit would both be fun picks for this. 

and no matter what happens I NEED a gunfight to break out during one of the lipsync performances and the song that was being performed keeps going on as background music while people are being shot
