herbert west's fashion choices will always fascinate me... like "yes i have to be dressed to the nines every day to get thrown around my basement and get covered in blood"
my photo with jeff and bruce (and herbert action figure)!
jeff saw me holding my herbert action figure and he was like "let's put him on ur shoulder" and i was like "oh i was thinking that too actually!" and when bruce saw me he recognized me bc i went up to his table twice and he went "YES!" and he put his hand on my back and jeff had his hand on my shoulder and AAAA :,D!!!! i forgot to take my glasses off and fix my hair but i litrally dont care im just so joyous over this
(more of my interactions and long yappings about them under the cut!!)
so i was so so nervous to meet them again and i had to eat a granola bar before i went up to them (thank u @unstableforensicscientist and @destroyersopera for being my con buddies/support system for the day<333)
BRUCE:
we went to bruce first and i said hi to him and then I said "i have some gifts for you" and I gave him @friendcrumbs's awesome spinner keychain that I was in charge of delivering and I said “this was made by my friend dennis” and he went “aww” and then when i showed him the one on my phone and spun it he said “oh cool!” and he immediately tried to open it and said “is it bad for me to open this now? I’ve never really been good at waiting” he was struggling to open the bubble wrap and he tried to open it with his teeth and handed it to his helper person to open later
i gave him the “mr nike” bracelet next and he went “aww…thank you!” and then i explained the reference to the commentary when jeff said that him to him and bruce put it on immediately and then shook his head and joked “nothing he (jeff) says is funny 🙄don’t…don’t credit him..I mean… it just encourages bad behavior 🙄so try to stifle a laugh whenever he says something funny, don’t pay any attention.” (😭) and i played along and said “like when a toddler misbehaves🙂↕️” and he said “yeah its just…constantly.. constantly… now that he’s older he’s crankier (😭) alright so… yeah just ignore him”
When i gave him the “dan cain is a wimp” sticker he looked at it and turned to rg and james and went “wha! hm…” and then I explained that he said that in an interview and he started to remember and went “yes!” and nodded his head and he said “well i mean honestly…after they’ve killed your cat…i mean..dan should have just beaten the shit out of him right then and there (i started giggling at this moment) and then just know.. but then you don’t have a movie! (rg said “evict him”) so yknow…i was always like “wait he killed my cat?” and like “herbert! doggone it :( stop thaat :( you’re a bad man! :(“ and then he rolled his eyes skdfhkdsh and i said “its just a slap on the wrist” and bruce went “yeah! exactly, you just gotta take it…” and then he picked up my sticker again and went “that’s sweet!” and said “does it um.. does it have a sticky?” and i explained that the back peels off and he went “okay! okay… im gonna keep that! im not wearing it around him (jeff) just gives him… fuel for his stupid fire🙄” andlkfjslkds
and then i looked down and noticed the familiar packaging of the granola bar i eat right before i went to talk to him and said “oh i think we eat the same granola bar?” and he was like “you do?” and i said “yeah :-D is it crunchy peanut butter?” and he said “yes!” and “i said omg i love those i packed like 3 in my bag!” and his helper person said “he makes a terrible mess!” and bruce was like “i know! she gets so mad at me” and rg piped up and said “yeah but its hidden valley they all make a mess” akahdkas (this doesn't matter to anyone else but me but thats ok bc it makes me happy lszjlash)
and then bruce started to sign my photo and said “what do you think…green?” and i said “yes please!” and he said “okay! Louieee….remember that crazy song “Louie Louie...” and I said “yes everyone references that to me” and bruce said “those guys that wrote that, the kingsmen, were from my high school” and i said “really? :o” and bruce put his hands up and went “just so you know! little tidbit…” and rg said “lore” kdshfkskl and then he signed my photo and i thanked him and left and talked to my friend james while we waited for our friend rg and my herbert action figure fell out of my bag :( and his glasses broke :(((
JEFF:
so then we went to jeff and i had this idea for my herbert west travels blog of just taking a pic of jeff pretending to meet my herbert action figure and it took him a little bit to understand but when he understood he was so involved and engaged with the idea 🥺 he stood herbert up and then said "i have an idea" and propped herbert's arm up like and he shook it nebfbdbsbd i was so so happy (i will post the pics to herbert west travels blog with a caption eventually)! and i said “thank you so much!” and then i said “i um i have some gifts for you“ and jeff put herbert down on the table and went “aaah! pffwew” (crashing sound)and smiled skdfsdhl hes so funny and cute!!!
I handed him the “pipsqueak” bracelet and he went “okay :)” and i started to explain the reference to the commentary and he finished my sentence as he remembered and said “-size up this pipsqueak” and i went “yeah:D” and he went “okaay:)” and he put it on! and it looked like it fit and wasn’t too loose or too tight! win!
then I gave him the “dan cain is a wimp sticker” and he read it and said “dan…Wimp! … :) is a wimp! I’m keeping this” and i started cackling and he looked over at bruce and said “has he seen this?” and i said “yeah i gave it to him yeah!” and then jeff accidentally dropped it kdshfksd but then he found it! And he said “need a piece of tape…” cause he wanted to put it on his shirt!!!! and i went “its a sticker!” and he tried to open the sticker at first and then he tossed it at me like "i'm not getting it open there's no chance" and then i tried to open it and then james was like "do you want-? and i was like "yeah oh yeah u have nails" but eventually jeff was like “never mind just leave it alone..ill put it in my bag” and put it in a pencil pouch and jeff said "im gonna hold this sticker up every time he (bruce) says something wrong" and i laughed so hard then i said thank u and he shook my hand and i told him to have a great day :-D
so thennn i realized i forgot to ask my questions sooo.. Second interactions will be reblogged to this post bc this is already super long lol! thanks 4 reading <333
evil realization i had last night: in bride, herbert gets a taste of what meg went through (seeing someone else catch dan's eye and having to watch him slowly pull away) :((((
