Little help here people?

[laurenthemself]

For those of you who are following the Taking Liberties series (that's the one with the Holly/Kochanski/Rimmer and the bit of Lister/Rimmer in it), I've decided to wind it up with one last fic, a Halloween story. There will be a masquerade ball and some other seasonal goodies.

What I would like input on is what costume Rimmer should wear. I'm trying to think of something that would make him reasonably unrecognisable, but not something like a gorilla suit -- I want him to be a little more recognisable than that! Holly and Kochanski will be dressing as an angel and a devil, but Rimmer's costume doesn't have to tie in with that theme.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

How about a Knight in shining armour? That'd be suitably dashing and a flap-down helmet could cover his face. Though he's the sort of person who'd try to be completely authentic then find himself staggering around exhaustedly 10 minutes into the party after discovering that thick steel isn't particularly lightweight.
