[ It actually takes quite a while before Julie responds. It's not that she can't think of punny costumes -- she can think of dozens, actually -- but that basically every punny costumes also requires a shared cultural knowledge that Ciri clearly does not have. How can she explain that, if you dress up as Gene Simmons in a beret, you're a french kiss, when she knows that Ciri would not know what literally any of those things are? It's difficult, but she finally comes up with something that she can at least explain succinctly. ]

Okay, so in my world, we have these women who devote their whole life to God. They're called nuns, and they all wear basically the same black and white outfit that comes with a veil thing called a habit. And prisoners always have their picture taken holding a numbered sign, for records. So, if you dress as a nun holding a numbered sign, you're a "bad habit".

[ Look, she can do better, but only with a proper frame of reference. ]

Well, usually they would be costumes. But I'm not exactly sure what the Horizon is capable of making. So we'll see.
