I loved making this costume! Even if it didn’t turn out quite how I wanted it to, I learned a lot from it and had a blast making new friends at the con!!

So, the con itself went wonderfully! It was a beautiful layout, the floor was great and I loved the vendors! There were some VERY cool artists, and super fun creatives making things like the little crotchet dragon that I shared with content tier on snap!

However I do think it’ll be multiple years—if ever—before I touch my toes into competitive cosplay LMAOO but I learned a lot! I was very grateful for a new friend who hand-sewed my thigh piece to my leggings so that I was able to do my prejudging! I also had to edit my eyes for these pics because I ran out of time before I could apply little LEDs to my mask :,))

The drive to the con was three and a half hours, and the same coming home, luckily I had two of my closest chosen family with me, however my friend that was driving got brake checked in the rain (at night), so we unfortunately ended up gliding on the slippery road and unavoidably rear ended someone, which did leave me with a few issues. No injuries, but my spine does dislocate really easily, and I’m in a pretty deep pit of pain. My back and chest are pretty tight, plus my spine and neck have been crackly all day since it happened. Luckily I have chiro this week, before my fae ball this weekend so I should be okay by then! I’ll be getting my chiro to look at my jaw, hips, and neck before I get situated back into my 2-or-3-characters-a-day filming schedule 😵‍💫 I may have a little 48 hour rest period for the next few days of sleeping til the afternoon and hermitting 😭🫶

BUT AHHHH the next character coming up is Lust from FMA and I’m gettting some black extensions for her 🫣 see yalll in the content soon!
