Plans changed on this end as well.
Will now bet attending as SAO Kirito and bringing with me Asuna, Silica, Yui, Lizbeth and a possible Klein(he's real flippy floppy though).
Also, had the idea of doing a potluck/picnic at some point before or after the photo shoot was done with. It wouldn't be just SAO cosplayers, just fans all hanging out and having a nice lunch together or something? Dunno, my Asuna and I haven't really planned it out. We did it a few years back after a Pokemon photo shoot and brought chocolate cake and it was just nice and enjoyable hang out down time haha.
