Yagi: I think it does! Thanks, might come in handy when I have to make my own.

Felix: I am now officially far enough in Homestuck to get this now! That is so beautiful! <3

It looks great, Yagi! It seems really easy to follow. (Now you've got me wanting to try it, even though I have absolutely no reason to.) Nice job! <3

I did the cryptonigma concept. Might not be final cause I'm indecisive. You can also ignore the random sword, which I really only put there because I thought the composition was too boring and couldn't think of a better solution at the time.

Also you guys should all make refs too.
When I saw that, all I could think was "THE C-LIST SUPERDUDES, with CRYPTONIGMA, THE BOY(?) WONDER"
That could just be the massive amount of old Batman comics/TV show episodes I've read/watched within the last few months, though.  xD /going through a phase (in which Bob Kane is really cool)

So here's Short Circuit, Circuit for short.

derpy pose is derp. And those are batteries. The pockets have batteries in them, because I make them explode, like firecrackers
Those are some nifty weapons. I like the concept a lot! Would you mind explaining the outfit in more detail? I see a yellowish strip on the side of the torso, and I wonder if it is a different fabric or simply a different color?

I was reading Kim's Young Avengers comics earlier and I just want to say that I am TOTALLY okay with being Hawkeye. She is a badass and I approve of her.

Speaking of Homestuck, my current favorite artist/artistic rolemodel seems to have gotten involved. 8I;; And alas, I still know nothing of the events past the Mayor of Can Town and the mailman bits. ;;;

@Hashi: I had assumed as much. Oh, superhero group comics and their audacious apparel. XD Thank you for clarifying that for me~ <3

So hey, I have sort of a silly cosplay group-related question. Would any of you even give thought to cosplaying Bakuten Shoot Beyblade with me at some point in time? It'd be cooler as a group thing than as a solo endeavor, but it's fine if you guys just don't feel like it. We could run around and give people nostalgia. 8D (unless we ran into any Australians, in which case we would just get recognized. xD;; )

I never watched/read Beyblade. If I read and liked it, I would consider cosplaying from it.

I watched Beyblade. Jaqua, myself, and two of our guy friends kinda had a nostalgia sing along on our way back home from OSU a couple weeks back and that was one of the theme songs we played. :3

I dunno if I'd do it, though. If I did, I might go as either Dranser or Fem!Kai.

That's beautiful. I can only imagine that it would make a very catchy road trip song. XD Were there Disney songs included in that set as well as older anime themes? c:
lolll of course you pick the difficult ones. Of course.

@Valeria: You can follow Nelvana's English dub easily on the internet, but it's somewhat painful to watch and listen to for long periods of time if you have an appreciation for better dubs. darn Canadians cutting out scenes and dialogue everywhere ffff
There's a few episodes here and there of the anime with Japanese audio and English subtitles around, but they take some hunting down to get to. (I think it makes up for being hard to find, though, by concentrating heavily on character interaction, so you can really come in at any time/have no idea what they're saying and still have a good idea of what's going on.)
Good luck with the manga. It's nowhere to be found scanlated, and Viz's translation is kind of everywhere at points, but it's okay for what it is.

Kero: I love the QWOP-playing Karkat. xD You should get caught up sometime and join our group madness! (HEY LOOK IT'S ALMOST SUMMER; PERFECT TIME FOR IT! 8D 8D 8D )
And.... yeah, never heard of that series. There are too many things I want to cosplay from as it is without doing things I'm not into. If I could find it somewhere and liked it enough I'd be willing to cosplay, providing there was a character I'd want to be. But yeah, not a huge fan of bad dubs/official translations.... <_<

No Disney songs. Just old animes. Like Medabots and Sailor Moon.

@Felix: Is it bad I want someone, somehow, to cosplay the guy from QWOP and have someone followin him with a keyboard?

I'm convinced that the point of that game isn't actually winning, but making him fall in the most terrible and improbable way possible. (That's the reason I play it, anyway.....)
.....yes, a Qwop cosplayer would be amazing. but only if they fell down in ridiculous ways all the time, because.... why else.

Jaqua you spammer
you hilarious spammer you. XDDD

@Felix: I thought you'd appreciate that. xD
and homg QWOP cosplayer I am totally going to convince some guy to do that /will start bugging my brother about it

Beyblade is surprisingly obscure. Here's a link to the first episode of G-Revolution, in Japanese with English subs: [link] If you're not into it after that, I'll see if I can hunt down the battle with Brooklyn towards the end of V-Force, and if you STILL don't think very highly of it then that's cool. Battle tops just really appeal to me for some reason. xD;

Hashi and Yagi: So I didn't end up getting the scholarships I thought I'd get, which means that I'll be paying for tuition again in the fall, which ultimately means that Yaoicon is looking unlikely for me. Were you guys planning on AssCreed for Sakuracon? Or just the superhero cosplays? Because if you were planning on AssCreed for Sakuracon, I'll still work on the rafiq costume, otherwise I might just forfeit the cosplay altogether if you guys aren't and work on something else.

I think I'm gonna focus mainly on Claudia for Kumoricon/PAX, with Suki as my secondary focus. I really want Claudia to be amazing so even if I have to be her for an entire con, it'll be worth it. That said, we should find a con that we want to be an Asscreed con, so we have Creedcon and Supercon and EVERYTHING WILL BE HAPPY

I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE NEW GAME BUT I LOVE YOUR ICONS

Speaking as realistic-planning pessimist, I doubt we'll be making so many superhero cosplays for Sak, not least 'cause they're a totally different kind of sewing and construction than we've done before. So I can definitely see me re-wearing AssCreed cosplay.

Jaqua if you're Claudia I have to do minstrel so I can serenade you.

@Rebecca: That suuuucks about the scholarships. I'm sorry. : (

I'm still planning on Asscreed, either AC 1 or 2 or both, for Sak. Depending on how many other cosplays we all have finished and want to wear to Sak. I totally lucked out with the YA cosplays cuz I'm only do Speed's jailbreak outfit, not his super outfit. |D

I vote not this Kcon, but next Kcon as Creedcon. Even though that's really far in the future. But by then we might actually have all of our AssCreed cosplays done haha.

I will gladly wear a fez as Malik in order to help the two of you to achieve your current life desires. <33
