[Thursday:]

I'll probably come back and put in some pics with the descriptions, lol!

Thursday: Hazel (Amnesia: The Dark Descent) - was with a Daniel
Friday: Ranmao (Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler) - was with a Lau
             Vriska Serket (Homestuck) - was in the Gamzee panel that night, had a functional robo arm
Saturday: Justine Florbelle (Amnesia: The Dark Descent/Justine DLC) - was with a Monster!Suitor, who looked like a person with their eyes gouged out~
                Young Connor (Assassin's Creed III) - was with a Brotherhood Assassin Apprentice
Sunday: Prince Ludwig (Ludwig Kakumei/Ludwig Revolution) - was with a Princess Friederike/Sleeping Beauty
Monday: Will probably be Ludwig again, then changing to Sirius Black (Harry Potter). Will be with a Marauder's Era group.

The most pictures we got taken of us was on Saturday night, because my giant living prop of a monster kept scaring people, ha ha! If anyone has pictures of the above, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you! <3

Hey there, I couldn't make it to the Thursday meeting because I was stuck in that insane pre reg line~ ; A; I'll definitely be at the five o'clock meeting tomorrow, since I won't be in line for anything at that time rofl. See y'all there!

Yeeeeees HERBERT! Clarice and I are at our hotel now (we arrived earlier than usual to go gof around and whatnot), and we ordered the cake today! Also, would any of you guys want my cell number? Just PM me! I know it'd be easier that way, lmao~

AHAHAHA NO WAY! Ohhh my god you guys would be like, my favorite people ever if you bring a Herbert!

Oh my god I'm leaving to San Jose in the morning (going a day early <3) - soooo excited! <333

Ahhh I'm so excited! Quick question, how will we be able to tell who is who on Thursday/Friday? Like, beside the flowerbed/former fountain, that is?  Maybe if you have some sort of beacon to let us know the right group/meeting place?

HI I'M MOOSLEY! I'm currently painting my mask and going as a Dapper Grunt, mustache included. Boyfriend, Santo, is possibly going as a Brute, but we aren't sure :D

omg YES! You should totally dress your boyfriend as a Brute!

Man, we need pictures of all the awesome monsters we're getting, rofl! <3

I just have to add onto this, but seriously. It's the vibe. It's just so different and more welcoming than any other con I've been to (and I've been all over the country/international, lol)!

I'll give an example: my first year at Fanime (2007) was actually a drag. The company I was with was just... urgh. It was just the crowd I was with was blah, my health wasn't that great, and I found myself easily irritable throughout the con, so far as to have a poor attitude throughout the days. During that time, I mostly kept to myself, since I didn't know anyone other than the crowd I was with (we were all from out of state, but the head two of our group formerly lived nearby and knew tons of people); simply put, I felt like a third wheel most of the time, and it was just... It was one of the worst times I've had at a convention to date.

When 2008 rolled around, one from my former group expressed that he doubted I would attend this year, given that I wasn't with that same crowd, still didn't know anyone, and had such a terrible time the year before. Well, I winded up making a good friend from that former crowd, one who wasn't a drag and we totally connected on many levels, and she invited me to room with her that year. I accepted the invitation, and realizing I would potentially wind up by myself again, I decided to reach out that year and try to meet a few people.

And meet new people I did! Even though I was by myself many a time throughout the weekend, it was never a drag. People just hanging out in the hallways, in lines, at other cosplay gatherings, they were all just so open and welcoming! Despite no one knowing me, not once was I shunned because I was the outsider that no one knew. Instead, I made tons of new friends that year, got many amazing pictures, and it was truly one of my favorite cons that year. Even briefly brushing past that former crowd I was with, it wasn't enough to bring me down from the amazing time I was having with all these new people!

To this day, Fanime is probably the only convention where I know I'll have a blast, even if I attend a cosplay gathering, panel, or event all by myself. Once more, the crowd is just so amazing. I'm so glad I winded up going that second time, as this immediately became one of my favorite anime cons - and still is~ <3

Assassins ftw! >:U pfft lmao

I'm nearly finished with my Connor cosplay, just need to make all his bling and designs on his outfit! Ha ha watching the ACIII trailer got me totally pumped for this cosplay~ <3

Sounds good! Thanks~ <3

Oh, kick ass! I'll add you onto the list, ha ha~ <33 Yaay we have Milkyways!

As for suggestions for the Shadow, oh man. Perhaps lots of red? Like, a red wig, red clothing, etc. That's all I could really think of, but I'll pass the word around~ ^^

If you have any more slots available, I would definitely be interested! Late afternoon Saturday, just me, cosplaying as young Connor from Assassin's Creed III. ^^

I love this idea! 2011-2012 has probably been the most difficult year of my life - absolutely no exaggerations in that, either. This really couldn't have come at a better time~ <3

Habanero flavored Nori Ten? Oh my god I would buy the whole stock, lmao~
(I'm not from the area, and where I -am- from, the nearest Asian food market is a good two or three hours away, rofl)

My and my friend's event was moved up, and I see the Assassin's Creed gathering is at 2:30 instead! Ah, that works out a looot better on my end, ha ha! (My main/big costume of the con is what I'm wearing prior to this gathering, but I can't stay in it for too long, given that my partner is basically my walking prop!)

My Novice and I may be a few minutes late, but we'll be there~ 8D

Updated with our tea party picnic info! This should be the last location update, ha ha~ <3

Makeup and or masks are fine.  Just be sure to reassure any kids if you are scaring them :).

Awesome, thank you! <3

Oh, that's a great idea! We could link to here/Tumblr as well~ 8D

I'm on it! <3

Suh-weet! Anything three and beyond would be best for me, again just because the open chest binding takes me a while to do, ha ha~ <3

Also! My girlfriend is attending as a Novice/Apprentice from Brotherhood~ :D
