Disclaimer: Naruto belongs to Masashi Kishimoto.
A/N: I decided to give Sasunaru month a try in English this year, so here you have it. This is a collection of individual and mostly unrelated drabbles. Both Sasunaru and Narusasu tropes will be included and each chapter will have its own warnings, as well as a tag to specify if it's SN or NS.

Prompt #31: Halloween (-)
Warnings: Fantasy AU, Kitsune Naruto.

"Ta-dah!" Naruto grinned brightly at him, arms spread to show off his costume. "Whatcha think?"
Sasuke's eyebrow twitched as he looked at Naruto's form up and down.
"... What are you doing in… that?" he inquired, ignoring Naruto's offended call.
"It's my Halloween costume, duh! I'm a kitsune."
"Naruto, you're way too old to go trick-or-treating, don't you think?" Sasuke remarked, sitting nonchalantly on the couch with a cup of steamy tea in his hands. The weather was chilly, and Sasuke's always been sensitive to the cold, so pressing his palms against the warm mug felt really good right now.
Naruto scoffed at his words and crossed his arms. "Nobody's too old to go trick-or-treating, that's what Konohamaru said."
Sasuke eyed the fake and cheap ears and tail of his costume, and snarkily snorted before taking a sip of his tea. Naruto made an offended noise and then he was looking into the eyes of what seemed to be a ten-year-old boy. The ears and tail were still on, but his hair was colored red this time, instead of his natural blond.
"What about now, mister I-ruin-holidays-for-everybody-for-fun?"
"I don't ruin them for everybody, just for you. You should feel special," Sasuke said, giving an unimpressed stare at Naruto's new form. "Why disguise yourself as a kitsune when you're already one, though?"
"Wouldn't want people asking me again how I got my costume to look so real, y'know," Naruto shrugged and transformed back to his original age.
Or, well, if you could call it that way. Naruto was hundreds if not thousands of years old, and he could decide which appearance to use, but Sasuke called it his original form when he looked like he was in his twenties. Truth be told, Sasuke had no idea how old Naruto was, and Naruto himself had once confessed he had lost count many centuries ago, so knowing his actual age was a moot point.
Naruto was a kitsune, a mythical creature that turned out to not be so mythical. He was pretty much immortal, and could change appearances as much as he wanted, even though he had a true form which didn't look much more human than he was.
He'd taken a liking to Sasuke after he helped him out when he fell into a hunter's trap in his animal form, which looked like a regular fox. Since then, the kitsune had never left his side, and now Sasuke was so used to his presence that he didn't even care anymore.
Over the time he'd spent with Sasuke, Naruto had become interested in human culture, and for some reason Sasuke couldn't begin to comprehend, his new fixation had become Halloween.
"Halloween is for kids," Sasuke had told him once, but the blond paid him no mind and was determined to go trick-or-treating, even if he had to disguise himself as a child wearing a silly costume, apparently.
"You're no fun," Naruto told him, costume gone to reveal his true appearance. Furry ears peeked from between golden locks, and nine fox tails swinged lazily behind him. There were also the whisker marks on his cheeks, which resembled claw marks. "I want you to come with me, c'mon. Let's go have fun together!"
"Naruto, I haven't gone trick-or-treating for like ten years now, and I'm not about to start again just because you wanna play human."
Naruto's ears fell flat against his skull, and he looked at Sasuke with the biggest puppy eyes (or foxy eyes?) he'd ever seen.
"Pleaaaase, Sasuke," the fox begged.
The raven tried to maintain his posture, but felt himself growing weaker by the second until he couldn't handle it anymore.
"Fine! But I'm not putting a costume on."
Naruto let out a victorious "yes!" and pecked Sasuke's cheek as a thank you.
Oh, yeah, that was also a thing now. Naruto knew no boundaries, and he seemed to like Sasuke way too much to ignore the true meaning behind his behavior. Still, Sasuke let him do as he pleased, even reddening a bit when he was showered by even the tiniest bit of affection.
"I'll get you to change your mind anyway, you'll see."
"You can go ahead and try."
