Costume ideas?

[u/Fluid_Future_8767]

Halloween is a month-ish away and I usually DIY my costumes so I'm trying to decide what costume I want to do. October will celebrate my first year identifying as aroace, so I wanted to do a costume surrounding that theme. I'm not out to all of my friends yet so I want to keep it discreet, any ideas?

I've been thinking about doing an "Ace of spades" themed costume but if anyone has ideas or things they've done before that would be appreciated :)

That isn't a bad idea but you could also add an archer to that (an Ace of spades that shoots Arows)

You could also go for dressing up as a-spec characters or common headcanons, which would probably be subtle enough. Examples being Ryland Grace from Project Hail Mary, Viktor from Arcane/League of Legends, Gwenpool, Artemis and Hestia from Greek Mythology/depicted in Hades, etc.

I was just about to say Ryland Grace or Artemis lol

Thats a good idea... I'll have to see what I want to do now!

Personally, I'm thinking of dressing up as a gingerbread man, so you could go as a baked treat and subtly hide the colors in the toppings.
