Kuma, a black cat with a small white cravat and golden eyes, (oh so pointy ears — and tiny dance pawz) wears a silly orange lid on his head (anything to make mum laf).

Really I’m going as a gender-swapped Princess Daisy from Mario, but I bet I could tell people I’m dressed as Savannah Bananas “Top Banana,” Jesse Cole.

We’re not big on themed couple costumes, which is how we ended up going to a party in a graveyard dressed like Elle Driver and An 18th-century Gentleman #HappyHalloween

A white woman with long blond hair wearing a black suit, white shirt and black eyepatch, holding a katana over her shoulder. Next to her is a white man with a mustache wearing a black tricorn hat, coat and vest, and a white cravat.

I had a lot of fun cosplaying Alucard from Castlevania Symphony of the Night last night! 🦇

We ended up doing a quick run of Aria of Sorrow and then made some more progress in Final Fantasy Tactics A2, it was a great time! 🧡

a screenshot from my stream of me cosplaying alucard, standing there, menacingly. I'm wearing a long blonde wig and a cape, long coat, vest, cravat and belt with a chain

another screenshot from my stream of me cosplaying alucard, I'm wearing all the same stuff, but this time I also have sunglasses on

Portrait of Marie-Joseph Chénier, c. 1798, by #MarieGabrielleCapet (French, 1761-1818), who died #otd, Nov 1. Held at Cantor Arts Center, @stanforduniversity.bsky.social cantorcollection.stanford.edu/objects-1/in... #womenartists #artherstory

A half-length portrait of a youngish white man with shaggy black hair, seated in a curve-backed chair. He is dressed in a tan jacket and a white cravat. His right elbow is bent so that his forearm crosses his waist; his right hand he grasps a rolled-up paper that is blue on the outside, white on the inside.

A man dressed in a fancy embroidered vest, pants and cravat stands in the center. He has long russet hair tied in a tail. His arms and his torso are made of elaborate metal parts. To the left is a massive blue automaton with the face of a young boy. To the right is an automaton dressed like a dancer, its bottom half a massive ball like a metallic top.

Black and white drawing of a Regenerador, an enemy monster from the Resident Evil 4 video game. A bulky, pale humanoid with a ghastly grinning face and long arms with tendrils coming out from the ends.

Illustration of the Nue, a Japanese mythical chimera creature. A quadrupedal creature with the body of a tiger, head of a monkey and tail of a snake.

An anthropomorphic otter, squirrel and mouse dressed in medieval-style clothing sit among rocks. Each one is checking a weapon - a javelin for the otter, a sling and stones for the squirrel, and a dagger for the mouse. Next to each one is a bowl of food: shrimps for the otter, nuts for the squirrel, and berries for the mouse.
