This was the all trolls picture and hopy fuck there was a lot of you! leaping lizards! sucks buster!

Nepeta? what nepeta? i dont see any nepeta!

The old stucks are holding council. beware!

these are some strong looking trolls!!!!!!

thats a lot of women for just three sollux's....

oh! there's nepeta! we found her people!

ah yess! we loved aradia con! it was excellent! lets give some love to those megido's!!!

jadenep for my soul! a treat! a treat! a treat for ruby! a treat for me!

nepeta became a sunflower! i would truly believe this nepeta could photosynthesize!

uh oh! we did a gamkar picture and none of y'all did any angst? so happy honestly no one wanted to make me cry.

look at everyone! this may be one of my favorites out of the batch! so many trolls! i love it! y'all are so wonderful!

this is just a very solid example of our photographer payton being very very gay. GAAAYYYYYY!

y'all are so silly! >;D

omg! is that spider man?

we conspire!!!

you know at the dashstuck panel aradia was voted the best troll so i guess its fitting that we were totally overrun with her! >:D i didnt see a single damara tho sadly. crying. my girl. D:<

these three ladies were so cute!!!!!! thanks for posing as jade with me!!!! <3<3<3

NO CHANCE! NO WAY! I WON'T SAY IT! OH NO!

jade down!!!!! i fell. i am very sorry to the nepeta whose knees i attacked with the back of my head! >XD i hope you were ok and uninjured! i know my head is hard as a rock! maybe my massive wig provided some extra padding lmao. >;P

more from the council of ancients lol

ok y'all were so cute!!!! i adored ur whole thing! not only did you play off of each other so well at your panel but you had some really cute poses together at the shoot!

there were less daves than i tend to see at cons but each of these dave cosplayers had their own very unique spin on the same cosplay and it was so fun to see! nubs still won't shut up about those tripp pants lol

you are the same person, you idiot!!!!!! D:<

spider man????? is that you????

y'all fucsia bloods back at it again with the cute poses! i just cant with y'all! youre so adorable!

More to come in part two!

So, I went to Dashcon 2! I was there with @logicalabsurdity (though she isn't in any of my pictures.) I went in extremely recognizeable and not at all niche closet cosplay as Prism from CPU Kerfuffle, with guest appearance from My Grunk (marketable plushie edition) and I've thus far had a blast playing Where's Waldo with my fun hat in other people's pictures and videos.

The place I most consistently appear is at the Homestuck photoshoot, which is also where I took approximately 98% of my pictures. As a fun consequence of where I stood, most of those pictures are haunted by the Looming Spectre. Observe:

Don't see it? Let's take a closer look.

There I am! :)

Here's a totally normal picture of Rose Lalonde. But if you zoom out just a bit...

I'm a Homestuck character too! :)

^ This is when I realized I was in the shot. I made no attempt to move because it was funny and there was a more professional photographer taking pictures too.

And that's all the commentary I have vis a vis these photos! Enjoy a small selection of some other ones I enjoyed, occasionally haunted by her. :)

2025 Dashcon 2 Homestuck Cosplay Meet Part 2

Second batch of pictures here you go!!! also there will likely be four parts total. three parts with thirty photos and one with ten. tumblr lets you post thirty photos per post and we have exactly one hundred. now due to mix ups there are lots of duplicates in the files so there may end up being a few more if i mess up, but im trying not to double post lol. ok here we go!

also thank you for your patience! if youre in the discord you know it was late when i posted the first part and needed to eep. each of these posts takes a few hours to put together so i thank you for your understanding.

I hope you enjoy your doodles that I drew both of you, and you have a WELL deserved resy after alllll that!! (SO EXCITED FOR PHOTOS BTWW OMG)

Heeeey everyone!!! So as a lot of you know, I’m running the 4pm Homestuck photoshoot meet at Dashcon2. And I just wanted to let you know that me and my cohosts talked about it and got permission from the dashcon staff, but we’re going to impose one little rule for participating in the photoshoot. You MUST seal your body paint if you want to participate. There’s a lot of reasons for this but a big one is unsealed paint tends to transfer during photoshoots and we don’t want anyone’s cosplays getting ruined. So if you want to participate in the photoshoot PLEASE come with your body paint already sealed. If you don’t or somehow miss the rule, we will be bringing just a tiny bit of non toxic sealing powder and Ben Nye final seal to share. It’s not a lot though since we’re flying from the US it has to be under three ounces and some of it we’ll be using ourselves. So if you see this message, you better come sealed. 🫵😉
