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
