Is it too on-the-nose to suggest convincing your S.O. to dress up with you as a version of another modern power couple for Halloween? We say nay.

2. Pennywise and the Raincoat Kid from 'It'
If people can dress their baby up in killer-clown cosplay thinking that it won't affect his development, then you and your person can go as the aforementioned killer clown and his prey. It's cute! Balloons! Variation: Pennywise and the Babadook, still a better romance than Twilight.
