ladydoujiI've been neglecting my lj recently, but I have some stuff to talk about it.
I went to renfest back on the 13th. Used my old belly dance outfit and some wings I made as a fairy costume, and took my doll Cordelia with me dressed up as a fairy. She was huge hit with the crowd there. I didn't buy as much as I thought I would, just two dragon puppets for my neices, a hair stick, and my yearly scent oil necklace from crystal mountain. Most of my money went to services like hair braining and foot massage, and overpriced renfest food.
The weekend was Oni-con. and oh the stories.
Thursday I loaded up my car with my clothes, sewing machine and unfinished bits of costume and headed out to class. Immediately after class I went to the hotel(dude 10 minutes drive tops) and met up with Misty and Nikki in the lobby. We got checked in and our stuff up to the room, then went downstairs to wait for Brian. Once everyone was there, broke out the unfinished costume and got to work. Misty helped by cutting out the red triangles for the bottom of the cloak(and was way too amused by the rotary cutter I had for the job) Managed to finished, then we munched on snacks for dinner and went to bed.
Friday morning we were joined by Vanessa who I had invited from a doll forum to join us so she could come to the doll meet. Her tiny litte banji was so cute. Got dress in my costume and headed how to registration to get my badge. It seemed a little better organize then last year thankfully. I then wandered around the artist alley waiting for the dealers room to open. Found a girl selling tiny EGA hats, and noticed that they were perfectly sized for my doll. I tried a few on my boy and ended up buying two throughout the con, and sending a few other doll people her way to buy hats. A few people recognized my costume and took pictures but not many. Dealers room opened and the spending really began. My haul for the day ES' otherwise complete series, vol 5-11 of Bastard, vol 1 of Suikoden 3, vol 1 of Juvenile Orion, a kingdom hearts poker deck and tsubasa reservoir chronicles poker deck, and mini Death Note notebook. Wandered in and out of the viewing rooms but nothing really got my eye before heading back to the room and meeting up with the others. Bored and staring at the inputs on the room tv a crazy plan was formed for me to run home, get my ps2 so we could hook it up to the tv and actually watch some of the anime we were buying. And since Vanessa wanted to hit HEB to check her work schedule and stop at a liquor store we headed off. Grabbed what we needed and headed back to the hotel. Got there and I found I forgotten to bring a controller or remote and so I had to run back home in get one. Also grabbed a white skirt and my winter boots as last minute changes to my costume, got back to the room and we watch Haru and Guu one of the crackiest animes ever to have cracked. And then it was time for bed.
Saturday, much the same as the first with wandering the dealers room, getting some final fantasy pins, a saiyuki poster, ff12 poster and a little game cartridge holder that straps onto my nintendo DS, which had a mini DS charm that fits into my doll's hands. Too cute for words. There was a dollie meet-up down at the starbucks. I took a few pictures but most of them came out crappy. Later we ordered pizza and started the ritual of getting drunk for hentai fest. The pizza was good but gave me heartburn, which sadly slowed down my drink. This is most unfortunate for reason that will be explained later. But we headed down for Hentai fest, which was much easier to find this year by virtue of actually being on the program. Security dude checked my id and then invited me to a halloween party. Hentai fest started and while I was drunk I was not drunk enough. The guy in charge apparently has an anal and feces fetish and delights and forcing it down the audiences throat. And he showed Bondage Games, which he had shown last year, one of the sickest, grossest and just plan bad hentais out there. Ugh, next year if he tries to show it again I'm organizing a viewer revolt. And then it was back to the room foe sleep.
Sunday, last day of the con, packing up the room and checking out of the hotel. Got a cupcake from an L cosplayer in the elevator as reward for correctly answering the Cake or Death Question Got all loaded up and did one final swing through the dealers room, finding and picking up so old school Gundam WIng pins and was able to replace my chibi Trowa in his clown suit pin I had lost years ago. Also Ran into Squidflakes(con regular who carries around a squid plushie for "instant tentacle porn" pics. We talked about how bad Hentai fest was and I wished some-one else would do it. He has now vowed to apply and takeover Hentai Fest and Bring the Sexay Back! Yay!! Dropped Vanessa at the greyhound station and headed home.
And that was oni-con 2007.
