WARNINGS: tutto bene! 👌
[ This is Luca and Alberto's first Halloween. And they're pumped. Alberto's worked on his costume for weeks, and it likewise took him hours to put it on... But in the end, it came out exactly as he'd envisioned (or so he's boasting) and he's feeling supremely chuffed with himself — and quite literally so, since he's dressed as... himself. In a way... Alberto's trick-or-treating dressed as a sea monster. But not actually transformed — after all, it'd be annoying if he had keep getting wet all night long, and that'd steal from valuable candy time. No, he's made himself a sea monster costume of his own true form, still looking very much human beneath it... And however chuffed he is with himself and his, uh, self... it's probably a little unsettling to behold, frankly.
He's painted his whole face, neck and shoulders with elaborate, scaly, purple makeup, and has covered his whole head with paper "frills" clipped into his hair, which periodically keep falling off throughout the night, much to his annoyance. He found some purple webbed gloves at Spirit Halloween, and made himself some flippers to wear over his shoes. He even looked up a cosplay tutorial to make fake fangs. And, highlighting his favorite feature, he's sewn himself a long spiny tail worn on a belt under his clothes. Anyone who's seen Alberto wet will recognize immediately that he's supposed to look like him, which will surely be equal parts disturbing and ridiculous. He thinks it's the most hilarious thing he's ever done in his life, though.
He and Luca (
schoolingfish) come as a pair tonight, naturally. And for his part, Luca is dressed as a horrific deep sea fish creature. He's dressed in all black with silvery webbed gloves just like Alberto's, and his own hand-sewn, spiny, iridescent silver tail on a belt — for an added fishy effect. They made Luca's many fangs from polymer clay and fitted the wire jaw piece to sit over his ears, which are covered with hand-sewn spiny ear-fins to match his tail. His dark makeup is splattered strategically with shiny blue markings lacing across his face and neck, lending an extra creepy effect, not unlike the stitches on Frankenstein's monster — just inspired instead by the natural horrors of the ocean. Luca donned some black contact lenses from Spirit Halloween and clipped a book light to a headband, and then bam: undersea nightmare fuel. Far scarier than Alberto's cheeky inside joke of a costume.
It's just as elaborate as Alberto's, though, because the two of them both jumped on this opportunity to flex their creative skills. However, successful as they were, their inspiration was a little misguided... The boys made them under the impression that their costumes should represent their own true deepest fears. So Luca, being most afraid to be banished to live in the deep sea, chose to embody how horrifying that place must be. Alberto claims he's not afraid of anything, except the very reasonable fear of being publicly exposed as a sea monster and, y'know, murdered by humans. So: he chose to dress publicly as a sea monster! But since he really doesn't want to be exposed and murdered by humans, ahem, merely mimicking his true form is much safer. And much funnier. He's going to be sniggering all night...
But strange as their costumes are, they do look rather cute beside each other with their matching aquatic monster theme, and matching ear-fin-to-ear-fin grins, practically buzzing with energy and enthusiasm at every trick-or-treating spot. Their candy-fueled excitement only builds as the night goes on; they've never had this much sugar at once... I-It's a lot for their poor little fishy selves. ]
Trick or treeeeat~!
