the only evidence of my first con. my best friend was going by herself and she asked me--- i was on keto ( i look damn good in that group shot) and i had long red-ariel-hair. I was free and we had been binge watching souleater ( before it went to toonami) and I was thinking of a character I could do sinxe she was going to do Azusa. So I decided to do a genderbend of Spirit Albarn-- my friend borrowed her Maka to me and I made just a collar, and a blade that could hook on to my elbow-- since Spirit was Death’s scythe... just to add interest. We spent so much time in the karaoke room and wandering the con. IT was probably among my most favorite. It was only 2013 and cosplay was still pretty new/barely became mainstream... it was just to have fun. There wasn’t much seriousness to it-- you just cosplayed what you loved with what you had. I can’t even imagine 6 years prior to that would have looked like.
