"What the heck is this getup you have me in, Kristie...?" Aries asked as she inspected the shiny, skintight white, green and red outfit, complete with wings and clawed paws.

Kristie, wearing an equally shiny, equally tight bodysuit, but red with a yellow belt, boots, gloves and goggles, grinned as she bumped a hip against Aries'. "It's a Fygar! From the game 'DigDug'!"

"Sorry Kristie, I have no idea what that is... You and your games!" Aries rolled her eyes.

"I picked these outfits for us since the guy hosting the party has the same name as the protagonist of the game!" The arctic fox cheerfully told her.

Aries scratched her head. "What, 'Doug'?"

"No no, Taizo Hori!" Kristie giggled. "He digs into the ground and fights enemies. We're dressed as the enemies! You're a Fygar, a fire-breathing-"

"Pfft. Typecast."

"-AHEM-a fire-breathing dragon, and I'm dressed as a Pooka!" Kristie exclaimed.

"Hmph. Silly name, that." Aries huffed.

"Oh c'mon, you look great! Looks like we're here!"

Kristie knocked on the door and a man wearing a white hazmat suit with a blue faceplate, holding some kind of drill with some kind of hose-gun attached.

"Is the party here?" Aries asked, feeling self-conscious.

"We went with the same theme and source for our costumes!" Kristie exclaimed cheerfully.

The man smirked behind the blue faceplate. "What a coincidence! I have the same theme..."
