This embarrasses Charlie, as she wears it in public, and the size of the costume makes it difficult for Lola to perform basic tasks such as tieing her shoelaces.

to:

* ''TheInvisibleMan'' has Griffon wearing dark glasses and heavy clothes for the first several chapters, concealing his ''lack'' of an appearance. May also be a StealthPun on the title, since a few characters get confused when he tells them he's "invisible."

* In the ''{{Paradise}}'' setting, human characters are randomly, permanently changed into {{Funny Animal}}s (and some are [[GenderBending gender-swapped]] as well). After they change, characters have an illusory full body disguise of their old human selves where normal human beings are concerned (whether they like it or not), especially early on when the [[WeirdnessCensor "Reality Distortion Field"]] is stronger. A man who turned into a female bear might look much like his old masculine self, just a little overweight—-which means he will need to [[WholesomeCrossdresser continue to dress like a man]]. Normals literally cannot tell anything has changed; only other Changed can see them as they are.

** He probably would've gotten away with it if he hadn't shucked the mask midflight. An old man with young hands isn't quite enough to report, but the appearance of a young Asian coinciding with the disappearance of an elderly Caucasian is going to be noticed by those already alerted enough to observe him.
