Bleed in Blue

Ok, finally getting around to writing this. Going to try to make it not too long. More pictures and less talking, right? XP

The con was a lot of fun due to the people, as usual. Wasn't too impressed with the con itself though. The changes were odd and I was annoyed with a lot of the younger crowd there. They were more obnoxious and rude than normal in my opinion. Also I ran into more annoying and creepy guys than any other con before. They wouldn't leave me alone. ;_; But besides that, the con was great.

Man...I still haven't even unpacked yet. x_x;; Oops.

So Jes is here and we'll be heading up to NJ tomorrow morning, bright and early. (Yay. x_x;;)

So here's what I'm doing/bringing.

Fri:
- Izumi - Full Moon wo Sagashite - Yeah, randomly decided on him. If I can find a black tie (going to poke Dad).
- Fai ch.133 version
- going to the Rentrer en Soi concert - regular clothes

Sat:
- Kirill - possibly entering hall, then doll meet at 2:30
- Crisis Core Cloud - 5pm FF meet
- Seimei "rave" version - late night

Sun:
- Dunno. Whatever I feel like.

See you all at the con!

I don't really expect to get any results on this but figured I'd ask anyways just to make sure...

So far most of my travel plans for AN seem to fall through. I'm all prepared to take a bus up but I'm not 100% sure if I can really afford that and it would also mean I'd have to bring less costumes.

But before I decide on that, does anyone know of anyone in the MD/VA/southernPA area who is going to AN (or even south of me in which they could be going through my area on their way) who I could possibly hook a ride with? My parents are willing to drive me out a bit to meet people partway too but they aren't going to drive all the way up to the con.

So just want to check. I think I'm going to go ahead and pre-reg tonight 'cause like I said, if need be I'll take the bus because I'm kinda of the "I'm going to find a way there" due to Rentrer en Soi and all (really want to see them XP). I have a room, just having issues with the traveling bit. And yes, I am actually working on my license but I'm not going to suddenly have a car any time soon.

PS: I'm more than willing to help pay for gas.

Con Report time. XP Let's see how long this one ends up being. Though lately I think my reports have been getting gradually shorter actually.

( AN '07, some pictures included )

All the rest of my con pictures can be found here: http://www.rosebride.com/lyn/an07.html Enjoy! I've been putting a few up on my cosplay.com gallery too.

Now here comes Otakon cosplay time! Ack. One week to get everything done. -_-;;

~Lyn

Welp AN starts tomorrow for me. Will be heading up with Jes to Laura's house and then joining up with Zach to go the rest of the way up. Should be fun. ^_^

So I think I have my AN cosplay plans figured out...sorta. lol I might end up changing things around at the con depending on what I feel like and how much I can actually fit in my suitcase. Empire Abel might not even come if he can't fit in.

Friday:
- Albert de Morcerf from Gankutsuou - morning/early afternoon ish
- Empire Abel from Trinity Blood - maybe, mostly just planning to enter for Hall at 5pm
- Seimei from Loveless - if people still do Loveless on Fri XP for a bit before concert

Saturday:
- Takumi from Nana - morning
- Shaka from Saint Seiya - afternoon, til whenever I can't stand being in it anymore, also entering this in Hall
- Either Takumi or Seimei the rest of the night, or maybe even casual clothes XP

Sunday:
- Takumi again for more Nana stuff

I'm going to the 12012 concert on Friday definitly and probably going to try to get the photo thingy on Sunday too though sad they're not doing autographs. ;_; And then will try to go to the Masq since I know like 2 different groups entering that I would like to see but if Magenta can't get a badge, I'll probably go keep her company.

I'll also have Dietrich and Lucian with me though they probably won't come out to the con til later in the evenings. Be in the hotel room most of the time. Lucifer won't be here in time sadly as the girl hasn't even sent him out yet. XP I'm hoping he'll arrive after I get back and not...during the con. lol That would drive me crazy. But don't be surprised if I randomly start calling out his name at the con. XPXP I'm still in disbelief.

Haha, keep forgetting about this con as I keep being focused on my Otakon stuff. Kanda and scythey bits are everywhere down here at the moment. XP Let's see if I can get it all done in a week after AN. Oh boy. ^^;

AnimeNEXT was totally awesome! Definitly one of the best cons I've had so far! ^_^

It's just taken me a while to update since Magenta has been here and so I haven't really gotten any time to really spend on the comp. I've started uploading the pictures and whatnot and might be posting a con report soon though. We've been marathoning Saint Seiya and it is greatness. *_*

Abel did not break at this con! Though AC Cloud needs a bit of a touch-up again. x_x; But I got to be part of the crack crew's kick-ass HUGE Kingdom Hearts group at the con. We had all 13 Organization members and it was amazing! Even though I was just a side character of the game, I still got to be in the group's entry in the hall costume contest and we won Best of Saturday Journeyman (and yes, even though Dani and I have been in Craftsman level skits, the judges said the group could enter Novice still since we had a number of beginners but bumped us up to Journeyman because of our skills).

And my new Cloud wig is soooo kick-ass! *_* I'm totally in love with it and I love Stef so much for styling it for me. I need to make a bunch of new icons for that costume now.
