Others

I think that sometimes my boyfriend get's a lot of shit from me, but I think that's only for the costumes. They turn out so great, because me and him fight over every single detail from the beginning. He tells me something looks like crap, I cry, we fight, i figure out another way of doing things, and then we both decide that it looks 100 times better than it was at the start.

Explaining the phenomenon in words, almost seems ridiculous. I don't know if it's very beneficial to our relationship, but I do know that he's always the one picking off strings from me at the convention, or hair that I never wefted correctly. He's the one making sure I get to photoshoots on time, by going and talking to the photographer ahead of time, while i'm trapped in hallways being bambuzzeld with photographs.

I don't really know how to explain how thankful I was to have him at Otakon, and before Otakon. I know he seems to want to limit my groups to three and my new costumes to one a con, but he know it isn't going to happen. He also knows how much I love it, and I think that's why he's willing to put up with so much bull shit.

I get hit on like no other at cons, on facebook, on here. Last otakon, i had some guy tell me that I was his favorite character and he just needed to get a shot with me for his old man fantasies. I don't feel threatened by this, and I know that sometimes it gets a little uncomfortable to Yuri, but it comes with the turf. If I dressed the same way in normal circumstances, going to walmart, browsing the mall, chillin on campus-- i think I would still get the same negative attention.

This message doesn't go out to him, it goes out to every guy giving me that negative attention. Unless you want to be the one making sure that my underwear doesn't show, that in every picture that I take my zanarchand symbol is facing the right direction, or tying my shoes because I can't bend over, and holding me while i cry because I can't make something as perfect as I want it to be and scratching every idea that you throw at me, then you obviously have no grounds to be calling me anything other than beautiful.

My boyfriend is the best cosplay boyfriend, that I think anyone could have. I think even my cosplayers for last Otakon, were glad to have him as a buffer between me and them, and also as someone who could always find the tacky glue. Thank you Yuri, and I do love you, and I hope that you'll keep my x-men fantasy alive and cosplay the wonderfully hot gambit for me to do photoshoots with-- i mean err-- for me to love-- and drool over. :D

Rogue Runner-- I dunno that was corny

I thought this art was pretty cool [credit] ergo I shared it with ya'll as my first opening rogue is a beast and i'm hoping to cosplay her at AUSA. :D Tada! Be happy. I've been writing papers all day so forgive me if I start talking about psychological theories and shit-- i'll try to going back to sounding as personal as humanly possible.

So this is the jacket that I got via ebay. The seller was wonderful, super easy to work with, really have no complaints other than I was totally not expecting the jacket to be full length (I thought it doesn't look like it-- i guess it does). So, I have to find some way to get it tailored. The under armpit area seems really really large for some reason, so when i pick up my arms, like the whole jacket comes with me... Lolz. Overall though, I wanted a jacket that was pre-made partially cause I'm busy with work/college and the other part because I think it looks better with a real leather, tailored design. I dunno, we'll see where it goes.

The super suit! I totally keep going around the house screaming "WHERES MY SUPER SUIT!?" It's really getting on boyfriends nerves. So I got my suit from a place [here]. I didn't actually like their base model (pictured above), so instead I sent them an order for a custom one, and they told me they'd alter the existing one with no extra cost to me, which I was like-- way happy for to say the least.

It hasn't come yet, i'm super scared of the alterations to make sure they all go down right, if they don't I'll hit cosplay.com like a maniac asking for some sort of help on figuring out how to sew on spandex because I'm so at a lost-- aka the reason I decided to get it premade-- also for $50, like you wouldn't even be able to get the materials for it.

Bought this wig, it looks super lush and beautiful, and real, and everything that I wanted it to be but it hasn't come in yet. :{ Not so much a nail biter for this one, got it super cheep here, and if it doesn't work, it doesn't work right? The real debate is whether i want to do a curly wig too to look more like the beautiful cute rogue cosplayer that you see toodling (yep i made that up) on facebook. Still haven't figured that one out, right now i'm currently out of money in the ordering department though.

For the white streak, i got extensions from ebay also. I've heard though that the clip in ones just don't look very nice in the wig but i'm stubborn, so i'm going to try it anyways. If it doesn't work, I was thinking about just getting the long white bangs that arda has and parting them in the middle because it doesn't look half bad for the part and if arda wasn't out of stock of them when I ordered these, I probably would've done that first anyways.

Boots I'm still at a loss for, was hoping to just get some yellow patent thigh highs and alter them but that's seemingly proving impossible. If I do end up getting patent, shiny things, I'd add them with gloves made out of the same-ish material, if I can't, I'll just go with some simple cotton yellow gloves. I've given up on making gloves too. Haha.

Belt I haven't thought about, and patches I haven't thought about, and then with these missing components the costume will be complete and I will be able to duke it out with the rest of the georgia pearls.

If you have any suggestions for gloves, boots, belt, wig; please please please contact me. I am back on facebook, and you can message me there as well as commenting here.

Happy Cosplay and to all a good-- Morning. :D

Now I get to go to sleep so i can be all well rested for the doctor tomorrow.
