Conventions

My first photo of the day, ran into a Ren cosplayer on my way to get breakfast!

Overlooking the convention center cafe, while I ate my breakfast.

This Joker cosplayer ran into me and wanted to take a photo while I was waiting for panels and events to start! It was so awkward because I was still half asleep ;-;

Ran into this Mettaton cosplayer in the gazebo area while on my way to an event about shoujo and josei! They posed so sassily, they embodied him perfectly. I was also given a pancake ribbon (reference to the character I was cosplaying) that I put on my badge.

Got a second pancake badge from a Maruki cosplayer while I was waiting at a panel for the history of lolita fashion.

The Maruki cosplayer I got the badge from!

We posed together and traded Bluesky accounts! I loved the Ren plushie they had, it was adorable.

Ran into this Anya cosplayer on the way to the Merchant's Den. Their makeup was INCREDIBLE, they looked just like her!

Two Joker's/Ren's I ran into in the Merchant's Den. They looked so cool, I love everyone's individual spin on the characters at conventions.

Incredible duo of Mouthwashing cosplayers I ran into on the way to the Cafe to eat. They made the whole cake themselves, and even gave me some ribbons to attach to my badge to show I'm a fan of Mouthwashing!

Saw this Diglett above me while eating, and took a picture. They saw and immediately started bobbing up and down! I can confidently say now, I've had a nonverbal conversation with a diglett.

Another cool as heck Joker I ran onto on the way to a panel in the gazebo area. Their gloves were so bright!

These Mouthwashing cosplayers were so cool I had to get a photo together! They were so sweet too, I wish I'd gotten their socials.

I ran into another Akechi in the Artist's Den and oh my goodness, they were so sweet and their cosplay was so awesome!

We turned around a few seconds later, and there were TWO MORE AKECHIS. I still can't believe the coincidence that there were four of us in the same area in the Artist's Den, and of course had to take a photo together. Time to start the Akechipocalypse!
