Dragon Con Gothic, part 1
The Marriott carpet is new. But the Marriott carpet cosplayers somehow still match.
You started with 2 blond wigs. Now you have 4. When you pack on Tuesday, there will be 8.
You can take pictures in the Marriott, but the faces always turn out blurry.
Donate blood, they say. Get a free t-shirt, they say. Set a new record, they say. They don’t say what you’re donating blood to.

You have been in the Hyatt-Marriott tunnel for hours. No one is moving. No one seems concerned.
