SO. I went to Megacon this Saturday for the 3rd year in a row now 8D~ THE ONLY TIME OF YEAR WHEN ITS ONLY SLIGHTLY MORE OKAY FOR ME TO BE A FREAK. and YEAH. bought some stuff, met some people, HAD A BLAST. here's what went DOWNN:

here's ~
soyjoy (who doesn't upload her art on DA /shakefist) and I. Rabi from DGrayman and um attempted ANBU Sasuke from naruto hahar
of course

my crazy brother went too, but he only stayed for a few hours or so 8D

we arrive and wait about ONE FULL HOUR just for tickets m(_ _)m but then again, it's kinda interesting to wait since you loop around and see different people all the time 8D

SO many people asked for pictures, particularly of rabi -- since the hammer/clothes/EVERYTHING she made was so badass

but they also thought soy was a boy half the time LOL
I guess it means she does a good job at it but WOW one instance:
bunch of girls squealing: OMG LAVI/RABI!11!!! (how the crap do you spell it anyways) C-CAN WE GET A PICTURE?
rabi: -STRIKES A SEXY POSE- -CAMERA CA-CHINK-
girls: OMGGAGHHGGH THANK YOU!!!
rabi: no prob~
girls: O______O......... YOU'RE A GIRL?.......
haaa~ even while we were buying tickets, the man escorting people was like "this way, sir." LOL ahhhh, we would just snicker every time it happened that day 8D
OH and. these were the first dgrayman cosplayers we saw all day XD;;
wandering around, we bumped into

MARIO!

the hammer battle was inevitable LOL D:
rabi: HA! MINE'S BIGGER!
mario: ATLEAST I KNOW WHERE MINE'S BEEN.
lolwhut now that I think about it, i don't really get it.. 8D;

we went inside the dealer room and saw OHMYGOD REBORN COSPLAY! holyshit i didn't expect to see any at megacon, since NO ONE here knows about reborn (good and bad 8|).. so HELLYEAH I freaked out when I saw a hibari LOL <3 later, we kept bumping into eachother so we exchanged contact info AND WOAH TURNS OUT. she's a HELLUVA artist:

GO VISIT HER! <333

DOMO. THIS IS-

NO. THIS. IS. SPARTAA.

we see some brawl cosplayers, which was a GREAT reminder for me to get the game...
IN WHICH I DO HAVE NOW
AHAHAHAHAHAHAH. SO GOOD. I actually want to finish this journal now. to go play it. +____+;; my favorite is PIT. HANDS DOWN.

SECOND DGM COSPLAY. i'm glad we found an allen :'D

AND THEN I CALLED

TO FIND OUT WHERE TO MEET HER. she was in line so we scanned the place and she ended up finding US. LOL YOU'RE SUCH A SWEETHEART NIKO <3 our itasasu was minimal.. but you already make the picture AWESOME ANYHOW LOLLOL <3

ORG13. 8'D

I WAS SUPER SURPRISED
to see any TTGL at all *___* LET ALONE VIRAL.
I really loved this girl's contacts.
YES. A DGM BADDIE AT LAST. 8D

upstairs shot :'D people were getting ready for the anime costume contest IN WHICH WE WERE TOO LATE TO ENTER. THANKS TO THE LINE. )8 I so think rabi would have won SOMETHING. LOL
AND SERIOUSLY. I COULD *SEE* IT. the whole sequence which soy could do down the walkway... imagine this: MC Hammer's Can't Touch This blasting in the back, while rabi shimmies down the walkway shakin' those mchammer pants and then. STOP.
'HAMMER'TIME
HOHO. all the while swinging that massive thang -- that would have been so epic.

ANYWAYS. SO YEAH THE LINE TO THE CONTEST ITSELF WAS HUUUUGE. LIKE IT WAS TO START AT 4:30 but at 3:30, when soy and i had nothing else to do and decided to go wait .. HOLYSHIT. it was already filing through other hallways T___T; we decided to just sit and chill for a bit, drawing back and forth when SUDDENLY..
HIGHLIGHT #1 OF THE DAY:

SOME GUY ON A MEGAPHONE WAS LIKE "AWWWRIGHT. we're gonna have a COSTUME CONTEST LINE.. COSTUME CONTEST! we're gonna pick 2 or 3 people to skip the whole line and get front row seats!"
so seeing that the majority of the people around us in line were sitting down, I told soy to stand up to get attention (like the hammer doesn't do that already) 8D and slowly as more people stood up while the guy was passing by, he STOPPED at us and the woman he was with pointed at us and said "OH HEY. I LIKE THESE GUYS' COSTUMES." After a short agreement between the two, the man announced that he found the last 2 winners on the megaphone, made us state our names, and shepherded us PAST THE ENTIRE LINE, to the front door. HELLZYEAH. They handed us a "WINNAR" button and told us to wait for an escort 8D fannnnfrickin'tastical


i mean, even though soy and I aren't as enthusiastic as others for this event, this just made it all the more AWESOME LOL.
of course, now that we were at the very front, soooo many more people took pictures, OTL; our bag almost got stolen once from all the distractions LOL!

we never planned to match.. LOL we only realized after this pic was taken haha

so we got into the place 15 minutes before the contest actually started and LOOK HOW CLOSE WE ARE TO THE STAGE LOL..
its like. a mini-replay of the dane cook thing hahaha, mann we were in the same seating area as the judges LOL @__@;

before...

AFTER LOL D:

aww the kids' contest
this naruto+jiraiya was just preciousss lollol <3
we didn't stay for long though, because 1) my parents called us to go and 2) we were actually pretty bored.. LOL, we were expecting more skits or interesting walks, but some people didn't even -HAVE- a walk o_o; so we ditched the seats everyone waited 2 hours+ for and gave them to two random girls haha
but of course, before leaving, we went outside into the cold storm-weather to take some more "serious" photos 8D

GLORIOUS. haha you see the complete awesome-ness of the hammer now *___* oh and yes, white stairs make all pictures better 8D~

awww..
this probably depicts how we were feeling by that time too LOL D:

lolghey. man, my wig 'deflated' by the end of the day 8D
no wonder people even thought i was HAKU?!?!?... >_>;;

8D;;; retardchild lulz.

met back with my little brother to strike an ACTION POSE /sparklesparkle

lmao we look so ridiculous to a passerby..

LOL i don't know what it is, but it looks so frickin amazing 8D

us leaving the place and being retarded 8D
well
atleast I am. 8|

we decide to go eat at california pizza kitchen... FULLY CLAD IN OUR COSTUMES LOLL I was a bit reluctant at first, since I'm more conserved, in person, for my love of anime etc 8D but in the end, me and soy decided to be freaks together and enter with the entire restaraunt staring at the 3 of us LOL D:

OM NOM NOM
haha i didnt even dare to look at our waiter in the eye while ordering LOL, but I'm sure I saw him laughing in the corner of my eye.. LITTLE DID I KNOW..
HIGHLIGHT #2
Finally, our waiter comes by our table and this is what he says:
waiter: hey.. um.. where did you guys come from?
me: UHHhmm.. well you see its this big convention thing called uh.. megacon.. uh.. yeah.. D: *I finally look at his face for the first time and he turns out to be kinda cute LOL older.. but still pretty cute DD: LOL D'OH!*
waiter: oh.. i see.. cause well. *points at soy* I know she's an exorcist from dgrayman, *points at brother* he's sasuke, and *points at me* you're.. an anbu?
