Claudia was really rather excited to be dragging H.G. out to get Halloween costumes. As Claudia saw it, there was somewhat of a necessity to dressing up on Halloween. Past getting in the spirit, it was embracing a day of weirdness by being weird on purpose. Everything was weird on Halloween which meant, by definition, they were amongst the normal masses. It was a chance to be wacky and wild and have it encouraged.

And H.G. needed some encouragement along that route. "Nope!" Claudia admitted, perusing the various costumes in front of her with a critical eye toward a few. "A few capsules of fake blood in good taste are fine, but these are ridiculous. Let's try out of the 'Movie' section and go for original stuff over here-" She paused, cringing at the sight of an "Alice in Wonderland" costume, her mind immediately going to Myka and the mirror. She could only imagine what her reaction would've been.

Alice shoved out of her mind, Claudia indicated toward another section a few rows down. The aisles were poorly marked with bat-covered signs that were hanging at the tops of the rows. Parts of some were covered with fabric, caused by too many costumes being shoved on a peg at one time. It didn't deter Claudia in the least and she had a general idea where things seemed to divide off, a mental map made in her mind from looking things over when they came into the store.

"Ooh, glitter covered fairy wings -" Claudia paused mid-sentence, staring at a pair of black and white striped fingerless gloves. "I had these at home. Just - part of my normal wardrobe." She made a face, trying to decide if that was a good thing or a bad thing.

"Have you seen anything you like?" Claudia glanced back over her shoulder to H.G., curious what the woman thought of it all. It was far from Guy Fawkes' day, she was sure.
