HEYYYY. Megacon. I have pictures. Of course you want to see them, right? Right. ♥

This post is not dial-up friendly. PICTURES EVERYWHERRRRE. And some of them are big because I got lazy and didn't feel like resizing them all the way, oops. BASK IN MY LAZY. 8D

ANYWAY.



OKAY SO. Hardly anyone's seen my Cosmos costume yet, so I'll put a picture of that first. xD



While I adore this costume - it's one of my more accurate ones, haha - it is a bitch and half to get around in. It gets pretty thin towards the bottom, so I have to hike it up around my knees to walk. And I could only walk very, very slowly in tiny steps. Now I know why she teleports everywhere in the game.

Speaking of walking, MY FEET. MY FUCKING FEET.

I had these gorgeous heels that I spent two weeks breaking in. I take approximately ten steps out of the car and CRACK. One of the heels break. Just snap. I had no way to fix it, so I broke the other heel figuring, hey, they can be flats. But of COURSE since they were heels, they were all discombobulated and whatnot. I spent the entire con barefoot.

This was accurate since Cosmos is barefoot - you can't tell in game, but you can tell in the character model in the Museum - but even so. I managed to get a blister even though I was barefoot. Figure that out. xD

Not to mention, oh god. The staff was apparently on drugs or something because they gave us completely wrong directions to the shuttle back to the parking lot. When we left - and this was after walking about seven hours around - we had to walk approximately two miles back to the bus stop. Normally this wouldn't be such a big deal, but I couldn't wear the shoes. So yeah. I was barefoot. It failed. *dies*

I tried not to complain, but ugh. I couldn't really contain myself after all that walking. My legs are still in sooo much pain. The three hour car ride home was a relief. x_x

ANYWAY. THE FRUITS OF MY CONVENTION LABOR, aka pictures. My dad, my friend Diana, and I all took some and I stole some of their pictures, so that's why they might be a little bigger/weirder quality than normal. xD



It's not Megacon without Star Wars!



OBLIGATORY STORMTROOPERS! They started disassembling the second I got there, boo. xD



To be a superhero, you just need a WONDERful pair of fake boobs.



GOOD GODDESS LOOK AT THOSE SUPER-DUDE'S ARMS. o____o



...Poison Ivy has some hot legs. *stare* >>



THE CHICK ON THE LEFT LOOKS SO FAMILIAR ARGUH. Who is she supposed to be? I'm gonna drive myself crazy. xD



I swear that Batman came out of one of the movies. He was INCREDIBLE. Poison Ivy approves.



I love love love when people go all out. He caused a complete traffic jam in the dealer's room. xD



Everyone loves green army men! *march*



NOM NOM SHARKBOYYYY



I'm not sure what they're from, but holy crap gorgeous dress alert.



Is that the same blue chick? Huh. xD She told me that she was Onion Knight on Friday. TT____TT I found a picture and apparently she was with someone who was Shanotto. a;slkdfj;li AHHHHHH. AND I KEPT MISSING A KUJA ON SATURDAY AND THERE WAS A ZIDANE ON FRIDAY TOO ARGUH.



DAMNIT OOGIE, DON'T EAT THE SCHOOLCHILDREN



I don't think these people were in a group together, but when Ariel was posing, they jumped in yelling, "PROTECT THE WOMAN!!!1" It was awesome. xD



The Tim Burton Red Queen was amazing. I'm assuming the other one is an interpretation or from one of the books? Or something. Either way, hot damn.



Must...show off...epic ♥



A MOTHERTRUCKING DANNY PHANTOM OMG. ♥♥ She looked all shocked when I asked for her picture. I don't think many people knew who she was, kinda like me and Cosmos. xD



I know this is a WoW character. Isn't it the one on the box? Ahaha.



*snicker*



IIIII wanna say they're from Code Geass. Am I right? xD;



This girl gave me a hug so I had to take her picture. xD I didn't know who she was, but now that I'm looking, I'm thinking she might be Ciel Phantomhive when he crossdresses? idk



Ciel and...someone. xD There were a whole bunch of Ciels and Sebastians there, but I was always too far away/too much in pain to catch up to a Sebastian. D:



I KNOW I saw this guy either at Metrocon or Megacon last year. And I found a Sora I recognized too, but he ran off before I could catch him. xD



Diana looks happy. ;D ;D Vash needs moar donuts.



Ohhh, Tamaki. Oblivious as always!



From Bleach, right? aderp



I heard u liek Mudkips



Pikabelle and a friend of hers? Okay, the thing is, I've been a fan of Pikabelle's for years. I LOVE her costumes and they're always inspirational to me. Plus, I love Pokemon. xD She was at Metrocon, but I missed meeting here there so I was sooooooo happy to meet her here. a;lskdfj SHE WAS SO NICE ♥ I told her that I was a huge fan and she hugged me and said she loved the detail on my costume. I GOT COMPLIMENTED BY PIKABELLE MY LIFE IS AWESOME SOMETIMES ;lsifz;lskdf ♥♥♥



element_43 and kanisi_kokoro's Hetalia group. They were Canada and Italy respectively, I believe. /o/ It's funny, I know zilch about Hetalia. All of my meager knowledge about it comes from people cosplaying. xD

And in the short time I got to hang out with them (sorry I vanished, I realized I had to find my dad and then I tried to find you guys again but fff I fail), they got in a group pose three times. I asked them how many times they'd done it and Caroline replied, "About seven or eight." xD I really need to find a cosplay group ffff.



WHOA DUDE, CLOSE YOUR LEGS



That's better. \o/



CANADA DISAPPROVES OF FLAGS ON THE FLOOR B|



YAOIIIIII



America...with CAPTAIN America. My brain exploded.



HOLY CRAP THIS NEYTIRI. ;lskdfja Guhhh all of the fanboys were all over her. And for good reason, really. xD For some weird reason - even though he saw Avatar - my dad thought it was a blue alien from some Star Trek thing. Whut. Maybe because of this dude. xD



;lskdfj;alksdjf ♥ She was surrounded by fanboys in the other ten thousand pictures I took of her. xD Darn you fanboys.



When you see it, you will know.



....as 'Three Minutes Clapping' comes up on my playlist. O:



Sora was chained to Sauske. IDK either. \o/



Obligatory Axel/Roxas. ♥



THE CREATURE ON HER SHOULDER KEPT STAAAAAAAAAAAAAARING. It wanted my sooooul. I ran into her two more times and I'd always give her ">>" looks. xD



Cuuuute Tifa and Kairi.



CUTEST YUFFIE EVER. ♥ She couldn't have been more than fourteen or fifteen and she squeed and hugged me when I asked for her picture. And then complained to her dad that they didn't bring her camera because she wanted a picture of me. :D



These two were amazing. I told Squall to go find his crystal and he answered in a PERFECT Squall voice, "Whatever." xDD He was pretty nice and hugged me, d'aw.



A mothertrucking Wakka!



Amazing Lulu and GIRL WHO LOOKS FAMILIAR BUT I CAN'T PLACE.



For aurons_fan. ;D



Two-for-one special, with a bonus L! Since everyone loves Rikku. ♥



See? ;D



kljsflkja;libamwl THESE TWO. OMG. I CAN BE MARRYING THEM PLEASE HOLY CRAP FANG UNF. ♥
Ahahaha, when I saw them, they were eating, so I didn't want to disturb them for a picture. I figured that if I wandered, I'd lose them, so I actually stood around (hidden, I hope >>) for about ten minutes until they were done. I'M A STALKER NOW, AHHH.

I told Fang she was my favorite and Lightning made a pouty face while Fang grinned and hugged me. IT WAS AWESOME. ♥



I WAS SO HAPPEH I COULDN'T EVEN SMILE PROPERLY or at all apparently xD



And then I found this in my dad's pictures. HOW DID I MISS VANILLE AND HOPE?! faaaail. And he didn't know who they were - he just took their picture because he liked the costumes. Weird thing is, he KNOWS who Fang and Lightning are. Sigh, dad. ♥



Cuuuute Vanille. The guy in the back disturbs me.



Diana and her box 'o manga. She had a backpack full of them as well. She now owns over six-hundred. I've got to take a picture of her bookcases someday. It's like something out of a bookstore.



This Terra was so cute. *____* The friends she was with apparently have never played Dissidia, because she had to explain who I was. They asked what game I was from and I said that Cosmos was the only original character in the game. THEN they got it. xD



Cloud's face amuses me. xD
When he saw me, he ran up with a hug and then:
Cloud: Cosmos! My Goddess!
Me: Cloud! Have you found your crystal yet?
Cloud: Er, no. Sephiroth keeps pwning me.
Me: *sigh* Well, stop dressing like a woman and get it! Save the world!
Cloud: IT WAS JUST THAT ONE TIME! Now I just wear the occasional skirt!
Me: ....
Cloud: THIS IS ONLY A HALF-SKIRT!

I love cosplayers. xD

Diana's brother, Bruce, came along with us. This was his first convention and I have to say, he must've found it pretty awesome. I call the following pictures BRUCE IS FREAKING STOKED.



WOO



WATCH YOUR HAND BUDDY



THUMBS UP FOR URANUS



HELL YEAH, TWO-TONED BRAS



AWESOME DUDE



THUMBS UP FOR CATCHING THEM ALL



THUMBS UP FOR AWESOME HATS



THUMBS UP - wait, I should be in that sandwich. >>



And I end this with moar Cosmos. :D

While it was fun this year, it was also...I dunno. Though I got a ton of compliments on my costume - one woman just stood there with her eyes all bugged out going, "WOOOOOOOOOOOW" for a full thirty seconds xD - not many people actually recognized me, except for the FF people and this one dude who jumped and said, "I'VE GOTTA GET A PICTURE WITH THE GODDESS!" ♥ So it was a little disheartening. Oh, well. I'm very proud of this costume even though I could hardly walk in it. I'll have to fix that. >>;

And I didn't buy anything except a birthday present for my dad, sigh. They did have some FF13 stuff, but it was soooooooooooo unbelievably expensive. Boo. I'll have to find the Snow figure for you on ebay, Bouncy. >3

MY LEGS HURT. *whine*

These definitely aren't all the pictures - there are lots more on my Facebook. If you want to see, let me know and I'll link you. ♥
