CON!

Jul 05, 2010 12:52

I don't even know where to start to convey exactly how amazing of a weekend I had at CONvergence.

Every one of my 11 panels was fantastic. I love and adore the slash panel, as always, because I always meet new people there. This year, I met bessyboo and her lovely girl!Jack costume. (I need to remember that we should do a Meta Panel next year too!) And I ( Read more... )

is this real life?!, convergence

Is is strange/sad that I'm *already* looking forward to next year's slash panel? Seriously, I really am. Slightly rambly digression: I have this necklace that I always wear that I made (I make jewelery) that has this picture from Shoebox on it. Whenever people ask me about it, they usually ask "what's that?", because it's a little small and hard to tell what it is. I usually say some form of "it's two boys, it's one of my favorite drawings" which is true, if not the whole story. I wear it mainly because I think it's pretty, and Remus/Sirius was my first slash OTP, and I love Shoebox only slightly less than I love my cat, but I also wear it in the mostly vain hope that someone else will see me wearing it someday and recognize it, sparking a discussion. Point of my story: IT IS REALLY GOOD TO KNOW THAT MY HOPE IS NOT ENTIRELY IN VAIN, AND THERE ARE OTHER LOCAL PEOPLE (outside of my group of friends) WHO WOULD RECOGNIZE A SHOEBOX NECKLACE. :DDDD ( ... )

REMUS/SIRIUS IS THE OTP OF MY HEART. WE SHOULD BE BFFs NOW.

I think I only saw you wearing your Jack costume, so I may have missed out on the necklace, but next time you must show me, because SHOEBOX. ♥♥♥

I'm already looking forward to next year's slash panel as well. And I will count you in for a Meta Panel. :D

Oh, Remus/Sirius. moonlingmaid introduced me to Shoebox RIGHT after it started (I think the third part had just come out), and then Summer of Shoebox happened, and that was it, it was all over for me. I've been a hardcore slasher ever since. So really, IT'S ALL REMUS & SIRIUS'S FAULT! XD And I will always <3 them for that.

Unfortunately, I was in costume all four days, so I didn't get a chance to wear any of my slash jewelry (I also have a charm bracelet) :( BUT YES! NEXT TIME! :DDD

Podfic panel next year? Y/Y?

YYY/YYY, count me in! It was cool to meet you at CVG; I don't seem to make it to the cons that have had podfic panels or discussions (though I will be at Vividcon finally this year!).

You'll be at VVC too? Excellent! We should hang out. :D

Just to give you fair warning, I am terrible at recognizing faces, so if I don't realize it's you right away, remind me. I am seriously dense like that.

But yes! I really want to try for a podfic panel at next year's CVG. I don't know how much interest there is, but I'll get the word out and hopefully hunt down some more panelists.
