Tom and Blaise arrived at the party amidst a rising murmur of surprise. He had dressed as the Muggle cinema star, Errol Flynn, as he appeared in the movie 'The Adventures of Robin Hood', with Blaise in drag as his Maid Marian.

He had seen the movie a number of times as a boy, enraptured by the idea of swashbuckling heroes battling evil villains, dueling dramatically up and down stairs. When Blaise told him about the costume party he knew exactly what he wanted to wear. It had taken a little more effort to convince Blaise to wear the gown, but he promised for the next costume party he would be the one to show up in drag.

Besides, he knew Blaise wouldn't complain about the chance to see him running around in tights...
