Make your voice break - Sing it out

Today was unusual in two minor, but notable ways.

1. I had a conversation with a stranger and did not panic. This hardly ever happens (both parts of it). Someone saw me reading my viking book on the bus and we ended up talking about medieval history and literature for a short while until he had to step off. It was very unusual, but nice. It's just

i've never been to one either bro
let's be con-less together ;~;

YUU LET'S GO TO A MY LITTLE PONY CONVENTION

[yuuago]

OKAY. LET'S GO.

... Though actually I expect MLP cons would be rather dull if one isn't into collecting the toys. :Va Though perhaps it'll change a bit now because of G4/FIM, idek.

[noonish]

hey i like pretty horses as much as the next girly girl tbh
i'd be like AAAAH SHINY everywhere regardless haha

[yuuago]

[/sends you a pony, then]

Cute, cute, cute. Oh, Noon. :)a

[yuuago]

MAYBE I SHOULD HAVE but... man. I was too nervous, ahaha. (They probably would've thought I was some weirdo)

Yeah, I figure going alone would be kinda' boring. But going with Ellie would be amazing! [/clings to]

i love conversations with people on the bus, as few and far between as they are. they don't have the same.. obligations? (yeah english) as regular conversations for some reason haha, probably because they have to, y'know, get off the bus at some point

i'd love to go to a con properly one day too, it looks so fun. COME TO MELBOURNE
alternatively there's always that finland option but i think i'm gonna miss you by a few months if/when i go;;

[yuuago]

Hmm, I think you have a point about the lack of obligation. It's just easier, and if things get awkward then at least you won't have to talk to them for a long time.

[/goes to Melbourne ;p ]
Ahh I'd love to go to you, but the Finland option is probably a no-go as far as cons go. ;p
The con that my friend suggested I go to with her is in Sweden. Maybe you should go to that one. ;p

[mimes]

ho man I LOVE CONVERSATIONS ON THE BUS! I swear man, some of the most interesting people have told me ~inspiring stories~ from their lives on the bus/train.... which admittedly is not what you're talking about. but yeah, randomly stumbling across people you can talk about your interests with is always a pleasant surprise :')

hetalia is everywhere
but honsetly I can't blame you for listening in, haha I would've too. I've never been to an anime-ish con, just the one we have here centered around more Western-nerdy stuff (still, with a dash of animanga). I think you should try to go to a con if you ever have the chance! ;3; I mean having such a high concentration of nerdery in one contained area generates the most wonderful and delightful atmosphere, it's like rainbows and sunshine and kittens all rolled up into one amazing happy feeling. or maybe I should say it feels like landing on one's home planet and being all omg i'm not alone!! ლ(ಥヮಥლ). or maybe i'm just so deprived of nerdy outlets that I feel too many feelings about this

[yuuago]

It used to happen in the big city sometimes, but not here. ;3; Still feels so weird.

I CAN'T ESCAPE HETALIA EVEN IN MY OFFLINE LIFE. Not that I mind.
/creeps all over
I probably won't have a chance to go to any cons any time soon, but... maybe things will change. I'd like to do it at least once because it sounds fun, yeah.

[/knitknitknits socks like a mofo] [/whoooo]

[moemoekyuun]

That's a nice conversation you had there! (All I had were creeper-ish ones and a lady who wanted me to review her diabetes medication because my nameplate said med school :|)

It would have been nice to talk to them -- considering how rare they are. though there's the chance they may be the LOL RANDUM type of fan but in case they are it's not like you'll see them all that often anyway

I haven't been to a con in years. The last time was when I accompanied a cosplaying friend. It's more mainstream now but probably boring to go there alone.

[yuuago]

Oh, most of the random conversations I have are creepy. xD But sometimes not.

Most likely they would have been all LOL RANDOM but on the other hand, maybe not. But ahhh I was just too shy, so oh well ;3;
