Bleed in Blue

...It didn't really register for me. I don't understand though. But supposedly Jasmine You, our beautiful bassist of Versailles, has passed away.

I'm in denial at the moment. Hoping its just some sick rumor because its so sudden...too soon.

It was only a few months ago when he was holding my hand in his hands and looking so genuinely happy to greet all his fans. I remember I nearly ran into a pillar because I was too busy continuing to watch him as he watched me walk off, waving with that curious little smile.

He's...gone?

This is to all of my friends who keep cussing out the band, I really think you should read this message from the Con Chair that is posted on the website:

http://www.animeusa.org/letter-from-the-con-chair/

Especially this part:
"This is where communication failed. We regret that we did not inform the people in line about the situation clearly. At the time, we focused on making sure those in line were getting water and fresh air flow. We also focused on wrapping up the sound check in hopes of getting everyone into the main events hall faster and into better conditions. This has led to much speculation and rumors that the band was at fault for the delay. The truth is, it was not their fault. Communication and equipment errors from both sides led to the issues we had on Saturday night."

This is why I kept waiting to hear the full story before making any judgement calls. I am not being a fan in denial. I just wanted my facts straight. I enjoyed the show. It was worth the wait. I didn't even mind the wait. I was happy and in all honesty it was one of the best nights of my life so keep that in mind next time you decide to laugh over the "punching rumor" or whatever to my face.

OMGOMGOMGOMG!!!

*spazzes out*

I check my e-mail today and get an announcement from my AnimeUSA flyer.

VERSAILLES IS GOING TO BE AT ANIMEUSA THIS YEAR!!!

OMG!!! I could cry! I'm so happy!

So...uh, this may mean I might be changing some of my cosplay plans, just to warn people. Because I would totally have enough time from now and then to make a Versailles or Lariene costume so I kinda want to. But it would mean dropping something but I don't know what yet. I'll figure it out later.

I need to spazz out more now! I mean I thought after A-Kon that would be it and I'd never see them but for them to come to one of my local cons?!! ^____^
