Optical Illusion

This post is an optical illusion. I am actually studying thermodynamics for my biochem quiz tomorrow, not posting.
So this week's
fannish5: Five of your favorite characters are going to a Halloween party. What costumes are they wearing?
My first thought was CrossGen characters, which is bizarre, because they went out of business about six years ago, so why would they pop up before more recent fandoms? Anyway, the thought of Giselle in a classic black witch's costume is too hilarious not to share. But for reals:
1. Kenzi from Lost Girl dresses as a harlequin clown, because there is nothing scarier than clowns.
2. Astrid from Fringe dresses in a gown and wimple which she did not buy in a Renn Faire, obviously, because she doesn't go to those, and whatever her loser ex told you to the contrary is nothing but a vindictive lie. She does look good in velvet, though.
3. Veronica Mars dresses as Carmen Sandiego FTW. You know she played the hell out of those games when she was twelve.
4. Jamie Madrox from X-Factor would dress as Cyclops if he wasn't afraid Cyke would toast him for his troubles. So he dresses like Indiana Jones. Not because Terry has a crush on Harrison Ford, though, because that would be weird.
5. Faith from BtVS has probably never been to a proper Halloween party in her life. She doesn't really get how the concept works and so Dawn makes her wear a classic purple Batgirl costume, which is truly a WTF choice. Halfway through the party she changes into one of Buffy's minidresses and they end up duking it out and spilling all the punch.
