Axis Powers Hetalia! 09

[MiriaRose]

In addition to the Algorithm March, we also must participate in this.

Ohyes, we must.

[goatchild]

I'm back, after falling off the face of the earth! Didja miss me? (wishfull thinking) Lack of Hashi makes me sad. ;o; Everything really is Russia's fault. jk don't kill me I love Vanya. XD I hope they have a blast in Tennessee~!

I will hopefully be ordering my Sitaly costume tonight. I was gonna get a real uniform, but the army surplus store in Eugene/Springfield failed me, and my parents are going to pay for the costume, so I figured I might as well. : P I dunno what's going to happen with Prussia, though. I have everything except for the jacket, and I don't think I'll have the money to buy the jacket before Kcon (not the blue uniform, for those who don't know). That leaves me with three options: partial-uniform Prussia, plain-clothes Prussia, or find a German barmaid costume at a Halloween store and be Prussia in a dress. Any other ideas? I'm also doing Sitaly in a dress, probably for the Masquerade Ball. In heels. Oh joy. :x I dunno what's happening with England. It's a fun costume, but I'm not so excited for it like Sitaly and Prussia. May not end up doing it.

@Cassiopeia: I think your Algorithm March will be hella fun if you finish it! It'd be fun as a skit, but much more manageable if it just happens at one of the events. Either way, it will be epic. And the Where is Hetalia will so happen. Cuz I say so and I have sway over our lovely coordinating Austria. >: D Also, your Spain is the most adorable thing ever, and if you're Spain while I'm Sitaly, it will be so hard to act like I hate you. D : If I'm Prussia, however, you may never get rid of me. Bad Friends Trio for the win!

@Kero & Cassi & any other Frances, Spains, or Prussias: We should all get together for some Bad Friends Trio silliness during the con.

@Malaria: One word: Silesia. |D We need to get together to make fun of the several silly Germany, Prussia, and Austria doujinshi I bought. They're ridiculous. XDD

[Malaria]

It isn't helping now~. : D

[jaqua]

@ goatchild: I know (think?) you're not in the Portland area but there's an AWESOME military outlet on Sandy Blvd (near Lloyd Center) where I got my Prussia outfit for, like, dirt cheap. I have a lot of altering to do but it's pretty much exactly what I was looking for. I think it's called, like Andy and Bax or... something like that. >_>


Also I'm really excited because I got my combat boots for my Prussia outfit today for like eighteen bucks. 8DDD I was resigning myself to spending 45+ at the outlet for a pair. /extremely broke

[goatchild]

@Jaqua: I'm actually in the middle of moving from Eugene to Tillamook and then to Portland XD, but I'll be in Portland on Thursday with Malaria. I may stop by that store even though I won't have much money. Thanks for the info!

[Cassiopeia]

@goatchild: It would be fun as a skit, but I'm already participating in one, plus it would fall more under the dance contest than the skit contest I think. And I'm running that so it would be unfair. xD It will still be epic fo' sho'. And whether you are S. Italy or Prussia, you'll probably not be able to get rid of me either way. So no problem. >D The world needs more of both! Seriously, at AX there was a serious lack of them. I only remember seeing one Romano and two Prussias. :'[

YAY BAD FRIENDS TRIO. YAY SPAIN/ROMANO too (isn't that the cutest picture ever?? :'D), but speaking of the bad friends trio, at AX there was a group of three people who did the War of Austrian Succession version of them. They were awesome and performed the Algorithm March with me at Karaoke. Not the Hetalia-fied version of it, because that still isn't finished, but the regular version. We also performed with a Russia and a China. HERE. Our spacing is a little wonky, but it was hard with the stage. xD

[goatchild]

@Cassiopeia: DUDE~ Austrian Succession Bad Friends Trio rawks my sawks off! I really want someone to do Conquistador Spain, with the armor and axe and everything. And that Algorithm March was MAGNIFICENT!! I'm so excited for all the Hetalia hilarity at Kcon, you have no idea. X3

Sadly, I did not manage to find anything for Prussia today. Malaria and I are going to go around to more places tomorrow, but it looks like I'll end up with plain-clothes Prussia and/or Prussia in a dress. Not as awesome, but it'll still be a blast. ^^

[Malaria]

Cass, how are you so fabulous?

Whee, Bad Friends Trio! Agreed on Conquistador Spain, with the halberd and the violence and War of Spanish Succession, which was even worse than the War of Austrian Succession, because Spain was forced to put a Bourbon on the throne. And not a Habsburg, damnit.

Thrift store marathons are eating my life. XD

[Cassiopeia]

I just like awesome stuff! :'D The whole world needs more fabulousness, so I'm doing my best in providing that.

What I really want to do is Matador Spain, but that would require money and skills I don't have at the moment.



I feel like I should go thrifting now...

[goatchild]

If you did Matador Spain you would instantly be my favorite person in the entire world. No joke. *.* Ironically, earlier today Malaria and I were talking about how I should charge you with a plush cow when I'm Sitaly. XD

I actually found stuff today! Including a big white feather boa! Yay~! I feel productive now. :3

[lit by twilight]

I would seriously vote 100% for Matador Spain. *____* That would be all kinds of fabulously epic.

[MiriaRose]

Matador!Spain would be amazing. :3

[Naruchan]

ZOMG seeing that would make me Squeel. xDD

[Cassiopeia]

omg ;-; Believe me it would make me really happy too, but I like I said, I can't do it this time around.

[Naruchan]

ZOMG Cassi are you back from Vacation yet!? D: I miss you!

[Cassiopeia]

Yeah, I am. I'm kind of in a difficult spot 'cause I'm 9 days away from going to camp and I have to finish cleaning my room for moving before I leave (the move will be completed when I am gone) and I have to really start getting info down for my panels because I won't have time after. :'D I love my life ♥

[Naruchan]

XDDDDDD HURRY WOMAN HURRY!

[Auricle]

I just realized that I have the right kind of jacket for S.Italy... ='D

[Naruchan]

OH REALLEH?!
XD well so do I! HA!

[Malaria]

Are we gonna have a hoard of Sitaly instead of Nitaly? XD

Sorry I haven't updated the last couple days, I was in Eugene for the Country Fair. All two of you that posted on the Planning thread have been added.

[Cassiopeia]

Are we gonna have a hoard of Sitaly instead of Nitaly? XD

I HOPE SO :'D

[MiriaRose]

Are we gonna have a hoard of Sitaly instead of Nitaly? XD

I HOPE SO :'D

I think we have another Spain you need to share with, though~

[Cassiopeia]

That's okay. 

[Hige]

I'm coming as as Alfred-American Revolution
  Complete with Musket Pistol and Sword (Woot!)
and my sister is going as Zao-Complete with Robot Panda in Baby harness
  It looks freaking cute XD

My sister has been trying to talk me into cosplaying Matthew on the side
  but depends on how hot it is
I've been trying to get my sister to Cosplay Japan so I can have some fun poses

Mattie's fun and easy, I've decided to switch to him from Chibitalia by virtue of his clothing being 100% more comfortable on me than the Chibitalia set-up that I had. Durr.

ALSO. ALSO. Revolution!Alfred makes me so ridiculously happy. ~w~

Glad to have you and your sister in our merry band of crackpotsnations!

If you wanna mosey on over to the planning thread and make a roll call post, I'll add you to the list.

[goatchild]

Just realized I have all of Sitaly except for the pants, all of casual-clothes Prussia, and almost all of Mafitalia-Sitaly in a dress. I feel accomplished! : D Too bad I don't have anything for Prussia in a dress yet. >> And I still have to style the wigs and make Sitaly's dress. But still! This is way more prepared than I've ever been for a con. XD

@Malaria: Do you remember my long blue coat I got last year? Have you looked at it to see if it'll work for Austria? It's cut for a woman, but that's not really a problem for Austria. |D

Coat~? : D What's it look like?

If you have a spare $50 or $60 we might be able to find you a dirndl at the Halloween Warehouse. Not that you'll have extra money or anything. xP

Are you kidding? Any reason for France to rediscover Prague and I'm totally in. 8D
...
*fryingpan'd*

I want to see those doujinshi! That's awesome! I didn't know there were doujinshi for this...!! : O I'm going to have to go check that out now.

Oh yes. We shall be taken over by the amount of Italys that we have. It'll be great. XD I guess it helps that Veneziano and Romano look similar. They'll come as one one day, and as the other the next. We'll be chasing them all over the place. =D (or at least I will. >D)

@Malaria: How far along are you with your Austria cosplay, actually? =3 I notice that you've been on a thrift store marathon, and it makes me wonder.

@lit by twilight & Hige: Hey, neat! We have a Canada! =D I call dibs on the Quebec side~! (France mode: ON)
Man, if I keep this up I'm going to have to come to Kumoricon with a hardhat. XDD

I know. :3 But the Oktoberfest girlies wear them, which is why it'd be funny, 'cause it'd be Prussia in a beer-dress.
This was Goatchild's idea. >>

Kero: I have everything except the coat. Wig is optional, 'cause I can just cut my hair and abuse it with gel. Yay for dark brown hair!

xD I'm sure it was.

[Malaria]

xD I'm sure it was.

I swear, everything is her fault. I only go along with it because I'm brainwashed or something.

[goatchild]

xD I'm sure it was.

You mean because I'm AWESOME, right? >8D Sides, if you didn't go along with what I say, you'd have to face the consequences. Like me breaking you METAL HANDCUFFS FRICK YEAH!

..that seems to be the role I end up playing in most relationships. : |

To keep things kind of on track, you need to make Hungary wear a dress! And an apron! I DEMAND IT. And make me a sandwich while you're at it.

That's not a bad sign at all.

She needs to make them first. I dunno if she even has patterns. D: Screw you and your delicious gluten.

[goatchild]

I'm just a lonely soul like Prussia deep down inside.

You should get her patterns. It's not like they'd be hard to make. : | ilu:D

[Malaria]

Maybe you'd be less lonely if you didn't break people's handcuffs.

We'll go pattern shopping eventually. ._. worst boyfriend ever.

[goatchild]

I like how it's "break people's handcuffs," not "break people's hearts." XD

Maybe we can all go on another shopping escapade and she can get patterns and I can get my dress! And Sitaly's pants. That's... kind of important. >>

Yeah, khaki-matching madness! XD

[jaqua]

Hey guys I have a question. What day are most people planning on wearing Hetalia stuff? I have Prussia tentatively planned for Sunday, but I don't want to wear him(...her) Sunday if everyone else is doing it Saturday, or whatever.

[MiriaRose]

Hashi said in the planning thread it was on Sunday. I don't think it's changed since then.

[Malaria]

Yup. We want our photoshoot on Sunday, so that'll be our biggest day.
'Course, we've also got the potluck on Friday and the panel on Saturday~. : D

[goatchild]

And then there's the Masquerade Ball, where at least some of us will be wearing crossdressed/genderbent versions of our characters. X3

[jaqua]

@MiriaRose: Hahaha oops, I missed it then xD

And excellent! But if the con doesn't start till Saturday, where's the potluck going to be held? I'm sorry if you guys are talking about this and I'm just completely missing it. DB /fail
Hahaha, for the masquerade I totally want to make a Prussia mask... Mmm, ideas...

[MiriaRose]

xD It's okay.

And, uhm, Malaria knows where it's gonna be held!  -forgot-

[goatchild]

I believe the Potluck is planned to be at Pioneer Square if the weather's nice, or inside Pioneer Mall if it's not. From 4 to 6pm is what the planning thread says. http://www.kumoricon.org/forums/index.php?topic=10033.msg405901#msg405901

I dunno if we're required to have masks, but you can definitely get in any kind of cosplay.

Miria: What Goatchild said. If the weather's Oregon-iffy and there's no clear knowing if it'll rain, we'll be in the mall.
