For you two, perhaps something from the Okami tradition...
She indicates Hebden
Perhaps a shite. You friend may be amused by a Drunken Spirit mask
and indicating Nālani
Perhaps Kitsune. Or as you wish to have a cape - perhaps a wolf-mask and red cape and go for another old earth tale?
Nālani almost smiles at the suggestion of a Kitsune costume.
The wolf with cape sounds delightful.

Noor still has a bit of cash, so that's her plan.
Noor
Noor moves to pay for her and Thaco. "This works quite nicely, I think." She motions to Hedben and Nālani. "Ring them up as well, I'm feeling generous and I suspect we're going to the same party. Nothing too much, mind. She changes and stuffs her current outfit in a shopping bag.
Noor nods to Thaco and waves to Nālani. "Hope to see you there!" Then she starts to move for the exit and to the stairs.
Nalani has 250Cr, cash, “walking around money” with her, but is happy to speed the process by letting Noor put all four purchases in one payment.
Bowing slightly: Thank you. We will look for you.At least we know each others costumes, the search will be simple.

Nālani and Hebden watch Noor and Thaco depart from just inside the costume store doorway. Hebden whispers to himself Any time now dear!
...The Space goes eerily quiet as the occupants of the space hold their breath for a moment.
The space isn't completely black, but visibility is very restricted. Phones and those shops with battery based emergency power back up provide an ambient light but the crowd block much of this as they move, slowly but too fast for the conditions, towards the lighted areas. Voices are raised as someone trips and their friend/partner tries to fend off the mass of people. Children call for their parents; parents for their children.
Nālani’s first reaction is to grab Hebden with her left hand while drawing the Stunner with her right.
Don’t move! Was this you?
