Well, I was almost done typing this post and my comp randomly shuts off, so I'm gonna try this again. Friday was my first day at Nekocon, Southeastern VA's very own convention. It was also my first con! Yay! So in any case, I was really shy at first about taking pictures. But with a little help from a friend *she basically called people over to me until I could do it on my own), I got over it. Without further adue...
*NOTE:It might take a few minutes for all the pictures to load, please be patient!*
This is the convention center. While Nekocon is pretty small, this was a brand new convention center, and we didn't even use half of it. The place was HUGE.
Here is Red, all decked out Naruto sytle, ready to have at it, Otaku style!!
My favorite pose ever. I'm reading Kakashi's infamous, promiscuous book, and as you can see, it's quite entertaining.
This was when I was still a bit shy about taking pics, but here was a cool Bleach LT., I forget his name.
Still getting over my shyness.
I actually met the guy who owns this car at the first anime club meeting, but he doesn't go to our school and is like, 28, so it was a bit sketch.
You can't really tell from this pic, but the Al mug is full sized, and the Ed mug is chibi!
This is actually the first person I asked to take her pic. This is Lust, obviously.
Terra from Teen Titans. Beast Boy was there the next day, but I didn't get a picture of him.
Funny story about Jin. I told Some Guy and Enin (and many other people come to think of it) that Jin was the hottest character ever, and I was going to molest him at Nekocon. Of course they go "What if he's cosplayed by a girl?" and I said I'd hug her, much to their dissapointment. So I explained all this to the girl cosplaying Jin, and SHE hugged ME! I also have more storied about this girl and her group, but those are for the next night, so I'll hang on to those.
Jin also kept some strange company, including Haku.
Mario was really cool. He had this remote control mario kart he'd drive around when he got bored.
CLOUD FIGHT!
Naruto's damn proud of his...kilt.
Shikamaru and his...sound ninja buddy.
Blurry picture of Dark, sorry ladies!
This by far was not the best Inuyasha there, but he wouldn't step away from the Excel Saga thing for two seconds, so I had to endure.
The Jedi Knight I felt kinda bad for, because other than a lightsaber cult (about 5 fat old dudes with 3 super expensive lightsabers each), he didn't get much representation in the two days I saw him.
This Ishida was fantastic. He carved his bow all by himself, and painted it, and it lookd great.
Red's new hat!!!
My new hat makes me tired!!
One of the many Chis.
Funny story about Link, too. Me and this DDR champion guy I met, decided Navi was the most annoying thing in the world and basically spent 45 minutes talking about all the shit we'd do to her if we could. We said it'd be so funny if we did Navi voices to the guy dressed as Link. So I start walking off after another friend, see Link heading our way, do a 180, and run back to the DDR and I screamed "LINK'S COMING!" so Link turns to corner and this DDR dude (who's like a black 6 foot 6 guy and a bit intimidating) SIDLES up to him, and in a high pitched voice goes "HEY!" Link goes "Hey." then he did it again. and again. and then starts in with the "LOOK! LISTEN! HEY!" and finally, Link realizes what's going on, and goes "Wow, that is so fucking annoying." I was laughing so hard, but I managed to ask for his picture anyways.
Mugen, she even had wooden sandals, and she came as Gaara the next day, and I hung out with her and Jin (whi had become Anko) and we became friends!!
The girl cosplaying Tsunade's an officer in our club...
...and is NOT afraid to show off her boobs.
The girl playing Sakura decided she would ditch Tsunade and randomly grabbed a Sasuke and Naruto (none of them new eachother) and started doing poses.
Oh yes, they are having fun.
Sasuke's contacs were worth a shot too.
Well, I hope ou enjoyed the first day. There are even BETTER ones from Saturday. I'll tell you all the shit I bought (cause there's ALOT. Mostly Bleach and Naruto stuff. Oh, I think it's ALL Bleach and Naruto stuff) the last day. But right now, I'm tired...
I left alot earlier on Saturday, but on Friday I was there till 2 (closing time). I haven't had much to eat today (only a pretzel and hot dog) and not much sleep, either. Hope you all have a good Sunday, I need to go back to the con to buy last minute things. Toodles!
