Devyn - Dressed as a bumblebee.
Alexis - Batgirl
Abbie - A circus lion (anything more specific and it'd have to be explained in-strip)
Mallory - Chell from Portal 2
Between all of the costumes we've seen so far, I'd say Kath's is best, with Mallory's at #2, and our little StormHuskMaidenTrooper PRINCESS at #3.

Re: Running Late 2015-10-27
Mallory and Abbie? Have we encountered them before? (checks the list of characters) Oh, some of the pool girls.
I wonder if Cricket is going to be joining the festivities. We haven't seen our lonely (and Monica mentored and Monica stressed) Fae princess for a while...

I absolutely adore that all we see of Castela is the top of her helmet! Super cute! I'd love to see a full color "group photo" image of all of these folks in costume (including Kat and any other paras who show up at the party).

Anyone else worrying what a sugared up Devyn is capable of?

Because the sugar makes her sweeter.

- concur, Batgirl...
- but, why Circus Lion
- I have no idea who Chell and Aperture Labs are...
*, because of her know propensity towards all things Cake and Frosting Covered. Still; Her top is rather sharply contrasting in it's stripes. If they are truly inky black, I'll concede Bumble, but if they are any kind of (dark) brown, then it's Nutt'n Honey.

She could be there right now, all sneaky in her five-inch form.eee wrote:I wonder if Cricket is going to be joining the festivities. We haven't seen our lonely (and Monica mentored and Monica stressed) Fae princess for a while...
And the ursamorphs could be there, too, as costumes.
With these characters, it's hard be certain of how many individuals there are in any group.

Re: Running Late 2015-10-27
As anyone here can well see-
Devyn is dressed as a bee
and everyone giggles
when her stinger wiggles
as she dances the bee dance with glee
Now Abbie it seems now is tryin'
to pass herself off as a lion
She'll snarl and spit
and throw a right fit
but here fearsomeness I just ain't buyin'
And Mallory passes as Chell
a character on which I don't dwell
for here I confess
I could not even guess
(I don't know that story too well)
Now Batgirl Alexis embraces
a costume that covers half-faces
her gear can be felt
in her utility belt
... and possibly some other places

Phooee, I ran out of hardware stout enough to keep up w/ the latest back in the Wolfenstein to Doom to Quake era.
Since then I had been rejuvenating 'old' systems to better than OEM, mostly for fun, sometimes due to budget, so there is a whole Next Gen of POV I know only from reference in the general community space.
For example, 'Raccoon City' was in a movie...
(All hail a film with both Milla Jovovich and Michelle Rodriguez...)
