I-Is conbounding a thing?
Like Disneybounding, but at cons?
If you don’t know what Disneybounding is, lemme ‘splain:
Adults aren’t allowed to cosplay as Disney characters inside the parks because small children and/or their moronic parents might mistake Random Park Goer Who Is Cosplaying for Actual Disney Character!! and treat them as such. And if Random Cosplayer says or does something Against Disney’s super strict Code of Conduct, the park could be held responsible or, at the very least, some cast members (employees) could get chewed out for no reason (as if that doesn’t happen to them all the time anyway). So. NO COSPLAYING.
Disneybounding is when you dress up as a character without really dressing up as a character. Check out some examples from https://disneybound.co/ :
And in the process of looking up these examples I found @bounderstyle which is for Non-Disney bounding so APPARENTLY IT IS A THING I AM SO HAPPY. Because I just got all the parts I need for Sypha Belnades. Well, I just ordered the last pieces of clothes I need for her. I don’t have a pin yet.
It occurred to me that she’s wearing black sun sleeves, essentially, and y’all don’t know how weird I feel wearing my sleeves sometimes but I have to because THE SUN IS TRYING TO KILL ME (read: skin cancer is a bitch), and so seeing a character who wears them all the time... (plus I already adored Sypha).
