crankyoldmanaka, the one with all the pictures we didn't take. XD Part 2 (and 3?) will contain ones from us and probably some of me. XD
Contains images, and a video. Yeah.
Thursday: Room party! Pantslessness!![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
drakonlily showing people how to dance and the fact that katmilla and safety_caesars indeed got pretty awesome at it. At some point I drunk dialed my Sidekick, who just reminded me last night that he had gotten a call from me.
Friday: We took over the bar, I dressed as gunner!Aeris and wanted to keepirish_ais's really awesome wig she let me borrow for it. Tiny guns are awesome. renoonreno.com was proposed. A really creepy Zack cosplayer hugged me (I don't like being touched by strangers!) and then quoted something (I think it was from Crisis Core, which I haven't played) and I smiled and nodded a lot. I found a Sephiroth to gun down (because there's always like, five). We drank with Marios, ran into the Reno and Rude from last year (only the Rude was dressed) and got the Rude drunk enough that he would speak with his Irish accent (Oi! Lasses!). We found giant beer tap things that looked like penises (no, I'm not kidding).
Saturday: The bar was taken from us, more walking around, I was dressed as steampunk!Edea for the first half of the day. The dealer's room didn't have the manga I was looking for, I got teeny goth fangirls (they were like 13) and an evangelist with a fiddle tried to hand me a flyer. So without thinking I said, "I'm sorry, I worship Satan" (IN A POLITE TONE, I feel bad otherwise, I just didn't want to be preached at, I WAS AT A CON). I changed into a Sue Goth because my Auron costume would have been too warm (yeah, so many people makes for hot) and I wanted to move around easily (and wear the Aeris wig again, I think I may grow my hair out again). My sister came by and they promptly put her in a corset (why didn't I get the hips in the family??) and we ended up with too many people in the room and the cops came by. Butdrakonlily got them to go away, and my sister went to the rave while I was an old lady that sat around chilling with people.
Sunday: Well, I wrote about that yesterday. XD
Our people are on the internets already!
Jamie, as Chie from Persona 4.
Katy as Shiki from The World Ends With You.
Linda, as Garnet from Final Fantasy IX
Jana, just looking awesome and steampunky.
And other people!
This guy made a working gameboy, not kidding. See!
We totally drank with Hot Heavenly Sword Chick.
We also drank with these Marios. Wario has real facial hair like that.
I thought these dudes were awesome.
THERE WAS A RAINBOW BRITE OMG.
And this chick was really nice and apparently works at a place that made the wig for her.
They were actually making the sound effects as they walked.
Contains images, and a video. Yeah.

Date: 2009-02-02 04:38 pm (UTC)I've got like, two new cosplays for Otakon then (steampunk!Auron, and whitemage!Cecil because I cannot simply dress as a character I have to mess with them!).
Is it wrong I'm like SUPER EXCITED about making a white mage cape? Seriously.

Actually, SHE would kick them in the face, she's got a bitchslap skill.

Date: 2009-02-02 04:49 pm (UTC)The only con I go to these days is GenCon, and I never end up cosplaying :(

Date: 2009-02-02 04:51 pm (UTC)I'd totally dress you up! I have acquired much gear!
(no subject)
Date: 2009-02-02 05:20 pm (UTC)I don't know what I'd cosplay outside of that, though. Hm.

Date: 2009-02-02 08:58 pm (UTC)Poor Tifa cosplayer! CREEPY ZACK HAS NO SENSE OF PERSONAL SPACE.
Also, Howl and Sophie (http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m27/Luna_Riven/Ohayocon%202009/acparadiseHowlandSophie.jpg), which you might like.

Date: 2009-02-02 10:04 pm (UTC)Their both quite cute looking and the costumes are right out of the movie. Sophie is such an awesome cosplaying idea. Not that I cosplay but if I did she'd so be on idea list.

Date: 2009-02-03 12:30 am (UTC)Also, I got your package in the mail a little while back... I just failed at confirming it! THANK YOU SO MUCH. The necklace 100% channels my inner (outer?) hippie biologist. I've worn it quite a bit lately (and received many nice compliments ^^). I haven't had a chance to listen to the cd but I'm sure that it's awesome. THANK YOU SO MUCH. <3
