Mega Con 2009
JESUS ON A STICK.
I sure took my time to get back online.


So yah, MegaCon was a little over a month ago.
But I've been really busy getting back into the swing of things :/
I got sick on Sunday and missed some school, so doing make-up work was a real b***h.

Despite the obvious setbacks of my mini vacation,
Mega Con seemed to be at its best this year from what I had experienced.
There were gropings, interesting panels, a vast dealer's room, and awesome cosplay, of course.

Well, enough blabbering.
It's about time we looked at some pictures!
(Click to enlarge them.)

So here we are finally in our hotel room.
After a grueling 3 hours of sitting still we got to work on cosplay.

As you can see in the middle picture,
Our Roxas found herself in an...interesting predicament > >
She had to sew a shirt down to a bathing suit to keep it from rising as AIDA Atoli.

Mega never got to see her Atoli cosplay as we ran out of time.
The same goes for my Azure Balmung cosplay.
//.Hack GU is cursed!!

Here're some shots of out quaint little hotel room.
We stayed at a cheap yet clean Ramada Inn just 20 min away from Mega.

Of course, we were quick to make a mess of things.
The right pic shows the iron, hot and ready to go, keeping watch over the food.

And LOL, our closet is all black, red, and white.
We didn't even plan that :'D

Tis a time of rest.
Walking all day in boots doesn't tickle D;

Turns out we're quite predictable.
I took a picture from the same angle and got the same result.

Three cosplays I never anticipated:
Fei (Tsubasa), Matt and Mello (Death Note) and Ariel (DUH).

On the right you may notice an Envy.
She's one of my friends.
Just FYI ;D

Tick tack toe, thee awesomes in a row.
Powdered Toast Man, Fraaan, and Beat from TWEWY ♥
All of witch I took pictures of while sitting down to rest my poor feet.

I couldn't get the Fran to turn around, sadly.
But her backside is still good.

FRIGGIN PUPPETS, MAN.
They were all over the Artist Alley for some reason.

All four of these cosplays made me scream.
Three for a good reason, and one just because he scared me D:
We've got mini-Wolverine, a Wookie, a ******** unicorn, and Nekozawa (Ouran High).

Wanna hear something amazing?
That unicorn of yey actually gave out rides X3

Behold: Homer Simpson, Male!Shuichi, and the one and only Burger King.

Feast your eyes upon our tired forms!
This is me and my cosplay group beat-tired on Sunday =D
I'm in the middle picture looking nowhere near as tired as I felt right then.

We got maybe a total of 7 hours of sleep.
That's over 3 days, mind you.

Ok, so here's the line up of my top 4 fave pics.
If you take a closer look we're either making stupid/amusing faces or photo bombing.
The one on the far right takes the bombing cake.

Now I shall bring to your attention the division between fans.
There's the normal fan on the left and then the scary/obsessive fan in the middle.
In the right pic you can see how we made our hasty escape ^ ^;

WE ARE MADE OF SILLY MOMENTS.
You have Dr. Roxas and odd-faced Marly in an elevator.
Then we played with shower caps.

Yes well, posing became an issue.
We went from elegant to structured to standing around.
I can't tell you how many eyes I've almost poked out with my ginormous scythe >>;


SPACE

User Image x x x User Image
And then there was the rave...
Some of us sported nifty visual kei masks,
While others dressed more normal.

On the right you can see how wired we were.
We stopped to get some 5 Hour Energy and OMG did that stuff work.
Too bad it tasted like crap for a while D;

While we were there an Orlando Sentinel photographer snapped a shot of us.
You can see the other cosplay pictures they took HERE.

Ah yes, the more humorous parts of Mega Con.
There's a pocky orgy in the middle left and a killer Obama shirt on the right.

We also found a hilarious Kankarou plushi in the Dealer's Room.
"HEY KANKAROU, YOU LOOK KINDA COOL."

The memories of this year's Mega Con shall linger on...
From the tight groping crowd to unknowingly meeting a YouTube friend,
To watching some dude scale a lion statue and pose on it.


SPACE

So we took one last look at the Dealer's Room,
And one last look at the entrance way before we made out trek back.

The depression that soon followed fazed a little.
On the ride back sleep deprivation got the best of our sanity.
Apparently green stripped feet are quite hilarious.

(WE ARE INSANE)


SPACE

For the first time in my Con-going,
I didn't buy anything from the Dealer's Room... D8

gropings? that's... disturbing. i think you mean groupings...

Nope, you read it right.
In large crowds sometimes you get groped.
But usually it's the butt.

I couldn't tell even if I wanted to.
The crowds were so dense in the Dealer's room D:

I did get paddled by a scary Axel,
Which was awkward because I was drinking from a fountain XD
