Cosplaying

It was Halloween eve, and Dionysus' annual costume party would take place at midnight tonight.

When eleven o'clock ticked in, Hades and Persephone got on with getting ready in their own costumes for tonight's party. Usually for Halloween, they would dress up as famous couples in history. Last year, they went as Mark Antony and Cleopatra, while the previous year they were June and Johnny Cash.

But this year, they've decided to go as something a bit more different.

Just a quarter of an hour after midnight, they were knocking on the front door of Dionysus' bungalow. His wife, Ariadne, answered the door, dressed up as a blonde Pocahontas, complete with the feathers and the traditional Native American clothing.

"You showed!" Ariadne exclaimed in glee, rushing forward to give Persephone a hug. "So who are you two tonight?"

"Bonnie and Clyde," Hades replied with a smile. Both he and his wife were dressed in 30s-style clothes, with Hades dressed very dapperly in a suit and a hat and Persephone in a long-sleeved dress that reached right above her ankles, low heels and a hat that seemed to hug her head, her hair styled in a crown braid.

"Two of the greatest outlaws in American history," Persephone beamed, then added, "Although, it feels incomplete without a shotgun."

Ariadne chuckled heartily before letting them in. Immediately, they could see a lot of people enjoying the party that was led by Dionysus, who was dressed up as Native American chief, with a large feather headdress and pants, going bare-chested; both he and Ariadne dressed up as a pairing as well. There was Apollo who was dressed as Hawkeye from the Marvel comics, and Artemis who was Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games trilogy; it was noticeable that both the twins went as archers.

"Looking like a fine gentleman, Hades," Artemis complimented. She wore a copy of the famous mockingjay dress of The Hunger Games, with the top looking like an ordinary bride's gown while the bottom was a skirt of midnight black feathers, the part that bordered the two sections decorated with red, orange and yellow cloth to look like fire.

"That's right," Persephone added with a smile, hugging his arm. "He's my Clyde."

Hades looked at his wife in amusement, and replied, "And you're my Bonnie."

Author's Note:

I honestly had a dream about Dionysus and Ariadne dressing up as Native Americans 0_0 And it only seemed right that Apollo would dress up as Hawkeye and Artemis would dress up as Katniss Everdeen for Halloween.

And the reason why I chose Bonnie and Clyde is mainly because I'm excited for the Bonnie and Clyde special that's coming up on Lifetime and History channel ^^ Besides, it would have been great to see Hades and Persephone as gun-wielding outlaws :)

See you tomorrow!
