Hello ya’ll! I want to welcome our new followers! Thank you so much for the follow! And Sorry if this blog seems empty as of now but I promise this will be updated more frequently.
Me and @prodingus traveled all the way to Charlotte, North Carolina, to attend TFCON in the artist alley. We had our table and it was so much fun and a great experience, well why I don’t show ya under the cut.
zielloos and @prodingus TFCON adventure go!
Aside from somethings I won’t go into detail about our arrival on Thursday, we were both nervous and excited about the whole weekend. Though, we couldn’t set up until Friday morning ahaha. Turn out okay since we got good rest before our big day.
After fueling ourselves with pizza and meeting several friends, we began set up on Friday and brainstormed last minute ideas for our table set up. So at the beginning we had this.
A lot seemed missing so after we picked up our noms for the weekend thanks to the help of awesome people that gave us a ride to the store, we picked up some things from Walgreens and our final set up looked like this.
Look at that gigantic nerd up there. Get her off! Yeah, dat be me argh. Last minute but we were really happy about it! Given that nothing but a welcome party going on we headed back to our hotel to hang and eat with some nerds. Hehe. Good times talking about stories and FCs. Our room? Well it was pretty fancy! I mean look at it!
You will probably need to open a new window to see it. And yes that’s a full kitchen! Some fancy stuff eh? Anyway back on track.
Saturday is when the dealer’s room opened, and oh boy were we nervous! But literally five minutes after the ‘con opened we got our very first commissions and did we rejoice and were so excited we forgot to take pictures of 90% of what we did. Srsly, we realized after the fact and we still hope some of our commissioners post them pictures online! Some of them did! Thank you guys! One awesome thing happened after the other and we pretty much chilled with Ryan, who just made our experience even greater!
We also set up a tip jar. Basically a tip for a small sketch and a change to enter our lottery with prizes. It was a success, thanks to the Scavengers.
But at the end they started to drive us crazy so we give them away.
Neither of us left empty handed, we got commissions, people bought stuff. We get to talk to awesome and creative folks and it was a great boost for us! So much we decided to do it again, so keep watch we will crash next tfcon!
PS: We almost fought Optimus.
Weeeell, one of us did. I was trying to stop the senseless fighting.
I also had a night terror consisting of something crawling through my window and trying to strangle me so That's Fun. I slept on the couch for 6 months after that shit.
Lmao okay so ghost story time this is a long one so sit tight. We renovated the basement cause it's Kansas and shit needs basements. And that's when trouble started. First incident was I was playing some game and I left it on the menu a while and u kno some games cycle thru audio as it idles? Well this time it exploded into static and a voice I didn't recognize as even BELONGING to this particular game said 'give it back' before it died down I of course.. Ran for it
Didn’t go down there for weeks afterwards but eventually I did. Now we had moved the gaming stuff to the other side of the basement to where the tv was opposite the door outside. So when it’s sunny outside it casts a lot of light on the wall with the tv. Now I kept fucking seeing someone run behind me and hearing footsteps. I thought it was my sis playing some prank until I realized that shadow kept going the same way without running back. It did this like a dozen times lmao so I fucked off
THEN ONE DAY weeks after this when I got my bravery back I started watching tv down there and it was again rlly sunny and dappled with leaf shadows cause it was just one of those days. Anyway I didn’t notice bc of the shadows at first but slowly realized one part wasn’t moving and it looked like someone was sitting behind or next to me. So again I fucked off
There hasn't been any activity down there for a while (this all happened like 7-6 years ago maybe 8) but before I left to live with my dad for a bit whatever that thing was moved itself from downstairs to the top floor where I slept. I would feel, what felt like kids climbing on the bed. At one point I thought my cat jumped on my bed but I heard him across the room and no one else was there
That’s fucking terrifying.
That is 100% pure fucking creep right there.
(I updated this with the last bit and HOLY SHIT THAT IS FUCKING TERRIFYING)
Idk if this counts but today two separate people...
I think it’s swarm behavior bc we don’t advertise our combos (or have tv ads I think??) but I know that usually within thirty minutes u get the same drink order but the same order exactly is fuckin weird
That’s really interesting. Someone should test it out and take a record of all the orders over a week or something to see if there are any patterns, then repeat it again in a month or something.
