Ugh... leg wraps >.> Reminds me of when I was a mummy in drama once; I wore nothing but muslin bandages. xD

I've got more pictures, but none of them are really good. xD I'll upload some from '08 right now.

China would be fun, though. I like his design. (Now I've just got to figure out when to wear all these cosplays) Erm... I could go as Seylaneceyptan? xD

Thats a good idea!
I'm real exited for china >.> gotta peace take a wok.....so cool

Just realized this... if you're China, then does that mean I get to stab you in the back after stealing your writing? >: D

Nope I will have china under control XD

When choosing your cosplay, you might wanna keep in mind that this'll be in February and probably really cold.

Chibiorochimaru · « **Reply #105 on:** December 18, 2009, 10:56:29 pm »

good thing most of the cosplays are warm =u=
and no Garnet no D< -glomp-

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #106 on:** December 18, 2009, 10:58:17 pm »

Not Seychelles xD It's either a little dress or a schoolgirl uniform; I'll be freezing in her, and maybe in Ancient Egypt/Greece. But England and Japan would be warm, especially with Japan's kimono jacket thing.

*is glomped* Gah! Okay, fine, I take it back! =^-^=

Jacob_Blackfeather · « **Reply #107 on:** December 18, 2009, 11:41:12 pm »

I am doing a felt france warm and ciuddly

We should have a post with whos comming and cosplaying who, im too lazy to do it all myself >.>

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #109 on:** December 18, 2009, 11:47:49 pm »

I'll make a thread right now for it. ^^

EDIT

I so meant post... xD

Ah, more people~ I'm so happy! X3 Everyone who hasn't yet, please tell me your favorite pairing or couple of characters (does not have to be a romantic pairing). I'd like to make valentines for everyone~ Oh, and if you have friends that are coming and don't have a forum account/don't use the forums, make sure to ask them what couple they prefer as well if you can. Thank you~ = D

Also, t-kingdom binders are amazing. : O Mine makes me seriously flat compared to normally, and is so much easier than using all sort of ace bandages and tape and all of that. It's less bulky looking and less painful, too.

As for warmth issues, I'd say that uniforms are the way to go. You might not need to worry about it too much, though, 'cause we're probably going to keep ourselves warm running around (and carrying people) and generally making fools of ourselves. : D

FFVII~Lover · « **Reply #111 on:** December 19, 2009, 10:30:32 pm »

Hetalia cosplayers have more fun XD

As for warmth, I think I'm the only one truly in danger of freezing. I'm not sure how warm William's outfit is since I haven't really tested it in Oregon's winter weather yet. . . I might have to improvize a bit.

Auricle · « **Reply #112 on:** December 19, 2009, 10:47:29 pm »

His outfit is a suit, right? ' 3 ' You might not need to worry too much. One of my cosplays is a suit, and it kept me warm enough throuhg trick-or-treating! X3 But maybe you can add a cute/business-like scarf and gloves and things. : 3

Chibiorochimaru · « **Reply #113 on:** December 21, 2009, 09:47:29 pm »

maybe we should find an opitional indoors place? If we start now we should be able to find a place.
As for fave pairings. My vote is for GermanyXChina <3~~

Malaria · « **Reply #114 on:** December 21, 2009, 09:57:00 pm »

We'll probably take over the Pioneer mall foodcourt. It's only a few blocks away.

... Please explain this. XD

Auricle · « **Reply #115 on:** December 21, 2009, 10:00:14 pm »

Germany x China? = D I love being exposed to new pairings~ I must contemplate this! X3

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #116 on:** December 21, 2009, 10:01:50 pm »

GermanyxChina? Not one I've heard of before. xDD
Personally, I so far like the standard GermanyxItaly and FrancexEVERYONE... 'cause he's a perv that way. xD Well, maybe a little JapanxGermany just because Japan needs some love <3

I agree on finding an optional inside place. The mall sounds good and all, but what could we do except shop without getting yelled at by security? xD

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #117 on:** December 21, 2009, 10:08:14 pm »

Ah, it's a standard cosplay invasion operation I see. Start at the beach then work our way into the mall HQ. I'll either be coming as Goku representing the Unified World of Dragon Ball (In DB the world is one whole country), or a red ninja, as ambassador and escort of Japan.

Malaria · « **Reply #118 on:** December 21, 2009, 10:10:24 pm »

Mitsu: We've had 20 or so people sitting around in the foodcourt and no one's batted an eye.
And there aren't any other public indoor spaces in that area for us to evacuate to, so this kind of has to work. xP

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #119 on:** December 21, 2009, 10:14:43 pm »

Hmm... maybe we could pile into someone's house in that event? xD
Good point though; but what would we do? Pass out valentines and have France hit on and mass-rape everyone? xD

Malaria · « **Reply #120 on:** December 21, 2009, 10:18:56 pm »

The plan right now is to go to the park where we can do wife-carrying and a live-action version of the seme/uke game.

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #121 on:** December 21, 2009, 10:22:47 pm »

wife-carrying? seme/uke game? What are these things, if you don't mind me asking. xD

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #122 on:** December 21, 2009, 10:27:10 pm »

Well there is always under the bridge, even though it just be comes windy and cold rather than wet, windy and cold. If no one minds we could always hit fast-food row, like McDonalds, Carl's Jr., or Subway, where we'd be all in one corner and not so scattered. Only thing is that some may want to go to one place over another one. I suggest Subway as an even ground for everyone.

And though there's food and restrooms, I partially agree. The last few groups I went to the mall with divided into separate cells and went their own way. They were together, but in their own groups.

And Germany could always take over France for hitting on everyone, while Japan keeps America distracted. Wait, is there going to be an America coming?

Malaria · « **Reply #123 on:** December 21, 2009, 10:32:28 pm »

Mitsu: Carry the Wife is kind of a Hetalia fandom in-joke. One of the Nordic countries has an annual wife-carrying competition. It's like a normal footrace. But everyone is carrying their wife.
Seme/uke was a game they were playing at the Hetalia PJ party that I thought was hilarious. Someone brought the Hetalia trading cards, and people would throw one down each like in War and the group would decide who was the seme and the uke. The live-action version would be we get everyone's names written down on a scrap of paper and we draw two and the crowd decides which one is top and which one is bottom. Then, if the two people are comfortable with it, they give us a pose that fits with the roles the crowd gave them.

Jason: I don't think forcibly keeping everyone together is so nice. XD The way the Pioneer food court is laid out people can stay together easily if they want to.

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #124 on:** December 21, 2009, 10:38:19 pm »

Oh, I've been mostly reading the extra strips and the first volume in japanese thus far. And the Gakuen thing; read the wiki and translation on that. xD

Sounds like amazing fun; I'll probably do Seychelles then; just need to decide if I'll make her school uniform thingy or the blue dress.

Malaria · « **Reply #125 on:** December 21, 2009, 10:39:22 pm »

The blue dress sounds super freezing for February. D: I'd go for the Gakuen uniform if only for self-preservation.

Auricle · « **Reply #126 on:** December 21, 2009, 10:41:31 pm »

So in the seme/uke game, how do we score points? For the card version I seem to remember that the person who laid down the determined seme card took the uke card as well, and when one person ran out of cards, the other won? Kind of like war. Or maybe I'm remembering wrong. Is there going to be a point system or is it just going to be complete tomfoolery and shenanigans? XD

Ohhhhhh! You mean no security batted an eye or general public! *headslap*

I'm sorry, my mistake. Yes Pioneer Mall is a perfect place where people won't look twice at us, and where we could drift around inside a dry, warm area.
However, I noticed that some would split into small clusters of chairs so tight that no one could join in if they wanted to. Some around the outside that are in the group could only hear half the words in the topic. That's all I'm saying. Everyone's free to break off and go anywhere, I just noted some minor issues from previous times.

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #128 on:** December 21, 2009, 11:08:58 pm »

Well, here's the Gakuen uniform from what I've found:

And the blue dress:

Or if I got really ambitious... THE NIGHTGOWN!
http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh241/neocloud9/cr3_1.jpg

Probably the uniform though, even if the skirt is way shorter then the blue dress, it has the sweater.

The games sound like amazing fun and so much photo opportunity to be had~ good thing I'll finally have a full functional and working camera by then.

Malaria · « **Reply #129 on:** December 21, 2009, 11:10:35 pm »

Huh. I thought most people did the Gakuen uniforms in blue.

Jason: The same problem occurs even if you jam everyone into a tiny fast food restaurant, though. : (

CloudStrife32 · « **Reply #130 on:** December 21, 2009, 11:10:54 pm »

I like the sounds of the games! =D
They make me a happy little~Germany!

And I just realized, 'happy', 'little', and 'Germany', should NEVER be put in the same sentence, EVER again! xD

That's why I'm saying forget about my fast food row idea, and just wander over to Pioneer Place from the park when anyone feels like it.

At least I won't have to get a wig for Seychelles or anything... or contacts. Don't you just love cosplays that have the same hair color/hair length/eye color as you? xDD *just realized this fact*

We already have a name for that. It's HRE. XD

Jason: I've been wracking my brain, trying to think of what that place is actually called. Thanks for the reminder.

Chibiorochimaru · « **Reply #134 on:** December 21, 2009, 11:25:58 pm »

Oh yes D< I sense mass groping!! teehee!
As for Germany X China it started with an in char fight during an anime club meeting.
n.n
Honestly I hate using my real hair for cosplays, it just dosnt look right to me : /. Just gotta afford contacts now.

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #135 on:** December 21, 2009, 11:34:04 pm »

My only question was what could the people without groups do if they wanted to join a sub-group, but couldn't find a topic they could relate to, or barely hear what they're talking about? I'm trying not to be selfish and sound like the only person who's had this happen before. This is also talking about the people who are at a cosplay meet for the first time and hardly know anyone.

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #136 on:** December 21, 2009, 11:36:37 pm »

I only do if it looks right, and I actually do wear my hair like Seychelles sometimes.
Most of the time I use a wig, though... unless my dog eats me wigs again... ('Tis the fate of my Garnet one; killed by hairspray, then mauled and eaten by Aeris. xD)

Last time we had a meet I yelled everyone into an introduce-yourself circle. That seems to work well.
From there, since it's a Hetalia meetup, it's safe to assume that everyone has the series in common and that's always a good discussion topic.

Oh dear. do you not have a wig for that cosplay, then? D:

Mitsukai Mizu Amaya · « **Reply #139 on:** December 21, 2009, 11:45:59 pm »

Oh, it's still usable... barely. Looks frayed all to hell though, and if it weren't form y hair being of a similar color, then you'd see that it's gotten a hell of a lot thinner from trying to brush and fix it. xD

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #140 on:** December 21, 2009, 11:55:44 pm »

Well figuratively, I only know enough Hetalia to pay for 5 cents of gas in my tank. And trying to catch up in two months might only feel like adding a dollar to that. That's kind of the problem with my type. I have a lot of areas of knowledge but I'm also not good in any one field alone. And anything I don't like, I also don't hate because I haven't had the motivation to try it out. But there's always hope and possibilities.

Ugh! I'm this old and I still sound like a timid new guy. >_<

Malaria · « **Reply #141 on:** December 22, 2009, 12:00:08 am »

Hetalia is a bunch of 5-minute episodes, and there's something like 40 episodes, so it would only take a couple hours to watch the whole series.

Hmm. Hetalia is one of those series where you don't really have to watch all or much of the anime to be a fan, but it helps. = 3
