So, ask me stuff!! Anything!!

Cajungal Feel good book: Once Upon a Marigold by Jean Ferris (it's my favorite book of all time in fact.)
Feel good movie: Stardust or 10th Kingdom

(This is one of the best questions ever, by the way!) But, songs that make me fearless..hmmm, there are quite a few. Immediately what sprang to my mind though, is this one:

Gardening: yay! Or no way!

Windows, or Mac?

Are you painfully shy, or just uncomfortably shy?

Favorite meal or food that you rarely have, by choice?

May 29, 2013#14

LittleKagsin

stienman, gardening is definitely a yay!! My parents have always had one as I grew up and I loved to go pick peas and just eat them straight from the pod. I hope I get rid of my lazy so I can have one when I own a house.

You know, I know know very little about computers, about why one would be better than the other. Windows, because that's what I have access to.

I'm simply shy online (until I'm comfortable and come out of my shell a bit), and I'm painfully shy in person. Once I get talking with someone I think I'm fine, but that inital approach, no, just, no. My heart is racing just thinking about it.

My favorite meal is Kansas-style ribs with steak fries, but I also rarely have it because I know it's not healthy, but it's my favorite.

You are seriously too adorable for words, although I get the shyness thing.

What is generally the best topic to talk to you about, that helps you work through any social anxiety?

Favorite dessert?

May 29, 2013#19

LittleKagsin

Officer_Charon ah, my goodness, haha, thanks! =^^=

The safe topics for me are books and video games. I can talk about those pretty easily with just about anyone. And as much as I love to talk about cosplay, I find that people tend to get lost when they talk with me about. I tend to get so excited I glean over some topics that the non-cosplaying sort may not understand.

Oh man...I dunno! Just about anything my Mum makes - she's a very gifted baker and bakes nearly everything from scratch. I don't think I could pick a favorite dessert; but a few favorites are Orange Dream Torte (this orange fluffy cake and cream cheese goodness), Layered Dessert (graham cracker crust, cream cheese, chocolate pudding, whipped cream, choclate shavings), Brownie Trifle (homemade brownie bits cut into chunks layered into a trifle bowl with choclate pudding, toffee and whipped cream), Peanut Butter Pie (peanut butter icecream with butterfinger shavings on top with a butterfinger graham cracker crust) and really just pie in general, especially Pumpkin.

Wow, I went on longer than I meant to. :oops:

Please describe in detail your most awkward interaction with a member of the opposite sex.

May 30, 2013#21

LittleKagsin

BananaHands, you know, normally, the opposite sex stays far away from me, so my awkward interactions are pretty limited. The two that stand out in my mind are ones I've told before.

When I was dressed as Poison Ivy, this guy came up to me and bowed to me, then kept talking to me like I was Poison Ivy. And I had know idea what was going on, so I just awkwardly laughed and held onto my friend for dear life.

Second is the Con Creeper. I was at a pony convention dressed as Fluttershy and this guy would not leave me alone. He kept coming up to me and telling me these things that I had no clue what he was talking about. But then he started re-inacting a portion of the show with me and got so close to my face and made physical contact. It was just...so awkward..

I will also throw in school dances, because I was not comfortable touching the opposite sex, so I was probably the worst dance partner ever. And I'm also going to give you high fives. Now, I say high fives because I high five people, especially guys, who are not looking for a high five. Like they have their hand out pointed at something, but I think they want a slap on the hand, so I do, and they just look at me like 'What?' and..ugh, it's so embarassing! And it happens to me a lot...way to much.

As far as most practical goes, I love my interval timer app for when I exercise. But I love my social meda apps as well, facebook, twitter (do I really have a twitter?

HBO feels like people will stop watching if they don't have boobs on screen at least once every 15 minutes, but the book isn't quite as gratuitous.

Hmmm, rewatched the most? Probably Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It was the first plot-based TV show I ever watched. (I was a documentary kid and preferred those in my youth.)

MANY!! I'm actually not sure. I've probably had 4 or 5? I got cavities all the time as a kid.

I like carpet! Mostly because I like to lay on the ground a lot (I'm realizing that it's one of those family things and when I go to other peoples' house, they're always like 'Why are you on the floor?' And I have to be all, 'Oh, nothing, you know, just chilling down here..it's nice and cool.' But really, I just like to be on the floor cause it's what my family has always done.) But, I am not above putting on slippery socks and sliding around the house.

I kind of love gardening! Well, I'm growing to like it. My parents always had a veggie garden when I was growing up and now that I'm out of the house, I realize I miss it. I used to take a book, go lay in the garden and eat peas straight from the pod. It's a lot of work, but I hope to have a garden someday. And I mean veggie garden, not flowers. I enjoy flowers as much as the next person, but it's to much work for not much in return besides visual prettiness.

I do neither of those things. Nate skateboards though! (We even took some pictures of us on his longboard for our wedding announcements.) I'm not balanced enough to do those activities. I fall on my face. Or my butt.

(Holy crap, this question is hard! But really awesome. And I need more time to complete it... will post later!!)

Oh goodness. I feel like I change my answer every time someone asks me this, but one thing that is my favorite is getting to be someone else that you're not. You can literally be whoever you want to be. And that's really cool. I also love my friends. I've met a lot of people that otherwise I wouldn't have and so spending time with them is really special to me.

Least favorite thing: EXPENSE! It's a really really expensive hobby and as a poor college student, it's tough to continue cosplaying. But I manage somehow.

A lot of things make me happy! Just about anything really. I love spending time with my friends and watching movies with them. I love being outside, going floating down local rivers, painting, drawing, playing video games, dancing (I REALLY love dancing). I enjoy fashion and crazy haute couture designs. Puppies make me happy. Exploring new things; places, foods, make me happy. Many things.

Angel's story from Wiki

X-Factor's formation signals a brutal period of upheaval in Warren's life. Cameron Hodge uses Warren's trust in running X-Factor to further fuel anti-mutant sentiment by portraying X-Factor as "Mutant Hunters" for hire.[volume & issue needed] A run-in with theBrotherhood of Evil Mutants results in the group's leader, Mystique, exposing the fact that Warren is financially backing X-Factor, which creates a public relations nightmare for Warren, due to his outed status as a mutant.[volume & issue needed] Worse yet, Warren's wings are mutilated during the Mutant Massacre by the Marauder Harpoon, although Thor's intervention saves his life.[17] When the wings develop gangrene, Cameron Hodge willfully signs the paperwork, against Angel's wishes, to have Warren's crippled wingsamputated.[18] Despondent over the loss of his wings, Warren escapes the hospital and commandeers his private jet, which explodes in the air as the rest of X-Factor watch helplessly from below.[19] It is ultimately revealed that Hodge has sabotaged Warren's ultra-light airplane in order to finish off his nemesis, under the cover of an apparent suicide.[volume & issue needed]
However, seconds before the explosion, Warren is spirited away by the ancient mutant Apocalypse. Apocalypse offers the despondent Angel a deal: serve him as his Horseman Death and get his wings back.[20] Apocalypse subjects Angel to extensive genetic alterations, giving him blue skin and organic metal wings, which can cut through almost anything and can fire his metal feathers as projectiles. He also gives him the title of Death, the leader of his Horsemen after he beats the others in a fight, complete with extensive mental conditioning to make him obey Apocalypse's dark plans.[21] Death is unveiled to X-Factor during their second meeting with the Horsemen, with Warren sadistically exploiting his friends' shock at seeing him alive to defeat them in combat.[22]As he leads the Horsemen of Apocalypse to attack Manhattan, it is Iceman who helps Warren break free of Apocalypse's control by making Warren think he has murdered him using a humanoid ice block which Warren cuts through.[23]
Free, Warren refuses to rejoin his teammates, however, as the effects of his metamorphosis have left Angel changed to the core.[24] No longer is he the handsome playboy billionaire, but an emotionally damaged individual whose wings reflect his newfound bloodlust. The bloodlust is ultimately fueled when he tries to seek out Candy Southern, only to find out that she has gone missing.[volume & issue needed] Warren learns that Candy has discovered all of Hodge's secrets (most notably his embezzlement of Warren's fortune to finance the creation of his anti-mutant militia "The Right") only to be abducted and lobotomized to keep her silent.[volume & issue needed] In the confrontation that follows, Hodge murders the brain-dead Candy in front of Warren. Warren responds by decapitating Cameron Hodge (who ultimately survives due to a deal with demons, granting him immortality).[25] Warren (going by both "Death" and "Dark Angel" at this point in time) ultimately settles on "Archangel" as his new codename as he finally rejoins X-Factor during the events of Inferno.[26]

Oh man...

Well, there are two different dream vacations I want to have.

One: A european tour! As an art major, the art and architecture in europe is amazing to me. I would love to go to Romania, Italy, Germany (including Bavaria because NEW SWAN CASTLE!! :heart:

), and the U.K. (including Ireland). If time allowed, I'd love to pop over to Spain because PRETTY BUILDINGS! Or to France to go to the Louve, but those two places aren't as intriguing to me.

And what I really want to do on that vacation, is to spend time with Nate and explore. I would maybe do one or two tourist-y things, but I just want to explore the city, find neat little shops; like food, clothing, trinkets, books. I just want to be able to take the time to slow down and enjoy myself. Also, pictures, lots and lots of pictures. So, that's dream vacation number one! European tour with my husband. (Also, secretly, I would LOVE to take some cosplay and do photoshoots there. But that's just me.)

Two: Go to a tropical location!
I'm not sure where, just somewhere tropical. =^^= Nate and I both love the beach, so a tropic vacation would be more for us (the european tour would be more for me).

On this vacation I would like to swim, sit on the beach with a cool drink and watch the waves. Zipline through the jungle, I know you can do that in some places. If there was some way to see local animals, I would probably want to do that too. But, again, I would just genuinely like to spend time with Nate, wandering around. =^^=

I love my cowboy boots, but my friends think it's ridiculous that I wear them nearly every day. But, they're comfortable, they fit, and they make a pleasing sound on many different surfaces.

This has nothing to do with my question, really. I'm just also having a slow work day.

I'm stuck with university food for lunch today, should I get a mediocre pizza, some mediocre Thai, or a mediocre-and-overpriced quesadilla?

Well, eat, or you'll like... pass out while lifting something, and then get crushed to death under a box labelled "Delicate" and your last thought, as the internal bleeding pools in your chest cavity and an increasingly oxygen-starved brain is trying to make sense of the world, will be, "Like... delicate... stuff? Or lady-parts delicates?" and then you'll giggle like a mad child, coughing blood up as you do, while a circle of helpless friends and bystanders look confused and horrified, unsure of what to do, chewing their tongues to avoid thinking about why a dying person might be laughing, the horror of the scene too difficult to internalise.

...Well that took a turn.

Why thank you!! I appreciate the love for my facebook page. =^^= Maybe I should put a link in my signature so it can be viewed always!!

Hmm, what would I change about the cosplay world? I can narrow it down to two easily, but deciding between them is rough. Actually, no, I can blanket it all into one phrase: I wish everyone would stop being so judgemental. And when I say that I mean everyone, I wish other cosplayers would be less judgemental of each other and support each other. And I wish people outside of cosplay wouldn't be so judgemental of what we do. I'm lucky that my immediate family supports what I do, but my extended family has told me nurmerous times how stupid they think it is that I do what I do. But, in my mind, I see cosplay do differently than any other hobby. You want to spend $300+ dollors on suites for a football game? That's your choice and I wouldn't say anything about it (nor would the media), but heaven for forbid I want to spend money on what I like to do, which involves a lot of time, patience and creativity. =^^= Oops, sorry, ranty moment!

That's an easy one: Honey! I often switch between PB&J's and PB&H's. =^^=

It honestly doesn't sound that good to me....I don't like cookies so much. I enjoy what my mum makes, but other than that I don't like cookies. Cookie Butter sounds like it would be great to use in a dessert, but it seems way to sweet to use on a regular sandwhich. I dunno, I can't judge so well since I've never had it. It will be to sweet is my inital thought. =^^=

Bones said:

I honestly don't know. The only thing that ever stops me from doing a costume is the money, so it would probably be the Granada Espada Elementalist La Rouge dress (I talk about it time and time again) because it is going to be EXPENSIVE! I'm also still in love with the idea of doing a full quad-suit of Naga from Legend of Korra and quad-suits are also crazy expensive.

More than I socialize with my neighbours. Most I can manage is to walk by quickly as I wave and smile, while desperately trying to remember their names.

Aug 21, 2013#115

LittleKagsin

We just got new neighbors and I don't know their names, if it makes you feel better.

I have this sneaking suspicion that all my neighbors my think I'm insane. And I bet it all stems from this one moment:

Once I went and did a photoshoot as Poison Ivy and when I came home...I had locked myself out of the house. So, there I am standing in the front yard, full leaf corset on, red wig and red high heels. And in broad daylight. My eyes spot our window AC unit and I think "Oh, I'll just break in!" But I forgot that the window AC unit is heavy and, you know, has to be removed from the window before I could crawl through it. I slide the unit out of the window all straining and heaving, while still in full cosplay makeup and just...yeah. Then I had to jump up to the window, wiggling as my legs and butt are hanging out of the window. And my corset gets stuck on the window sill, so I'm just hanging there, beached like a whale, kicking my legs because I'm so stuck. My mind is just thinking, 'Please don't let my neighbors see this, please!' But I'm sure some of them did. There's a lot of kids/stay at home moms/ young families in my neighborhood. With one final dolphin kick I broke free, slipping into our living room. It was just...ugh...I'm sure people saw it and judged me.

Then I had to hurry and change and go put the AC unit back in the window. It was just...intense.

Haha, why thank you! Love me some Monty Python.

I actually love my job. Sure, it gets rather boring and stagnant, but it's actually a really nice job. It pays well and is insanely flexible, I get paid vacation, paid sick leave and a floating holiday. My boss is really awesome, I mean, she makes me do side projects for her all the time, but she basically lets me make my own schedule. I can come in whenever I want and leave whenever I want. As long as I get everything I need to get done daily, she doesn't care when I'm here. Since I work at a fitness company, we're provided with a company gym on the premesis and we can use it whenever. And, as they like us to be healthy, we're encouraged to take a walk outside once or twice a day. They even have these really pretty nature trails for us to walk on. So, all in all, there's a lot to love about my job. I just get bored sometimes.

Hmmm, well, if I had no concerns, I would make my life all about helping people. I think a lot of this world is all 'Me, me, me, me!' and I think that hurts everyone, generally. Life needs, for me, to be about so much more than just 'Me!'. So, if I could I would go on a crusade to make a difference in the world, to do something good with my life - be something good. Haha, sorry, didn't mean to get all serious there.

Chad Sexington said:

Well, when I was teaching my mum how to use her phone, we tackled one thing a day. Like, day one, I showed her how to use the interface of the phone and what everything meant. Day two, I showed her how to text and answer phone calls. Day three, we talked about apps...and that's as far as we got. So...good luck my friend!!

You know, I'm thinking 2 or 3 kids is a good number for outsourcing.
That is a very good thought! I do believe I've somewhat outsourced to Canada - @Chad Sexington and I claimed Leyla as our lovechild. So there's that. But as for more offical outsourcing, I'll keep looking.
Hmmm, I'm not sure if I would care. I carried my car keys and their usefulness in a zombie outbreak really depends on how many gas stations survive the chaos.
I have never received a gift from a complete stranger.
The carpet is mottled gray/green with little designs in it to look like cubes. Yes, it hides stains very well, I think. I personally haven't needed it yet. I have one of those plastic sheets under my chair, so if I've spilled something I can easily clean it up.
Yes, my chair spins! I spin on a daily basis!
It spinds a good 5-6 times with a pretty good push. (Now I'm dizzy. I hope you're happy.)
My adjust lever is currently broken, so it stays in it's current position always.
Yes, I bounce on it. Quite regularly, I admit. I've had this keyboard for 3 years. The spacebar is BY FAR the most worn down, especially on the right side, since I push the spacebar primarily with my right hand thumb. But, the A, S and 2, 3 on my 10-key pad get honorable mentions.
Oh man, I don't know. I normally hold it in before I start crying. My best friend left to go set up a new store for her job (to be gone for over a month) and I went to say goodbye to her the day before she left for the airport and I cried then. I don't think she saw though. But, that was the last person I parted with in a sad way.
Um, I don't know? I was bullied by a group of boys in elementary school, spear-headed by a boy named Derek Mackley, but I mostly ignored them and thought that they were stupid. Besides, I could run faster than them and normally whupped them in kickball, so there! HA!

Hubby only has 2 full semesters left (YAY!!!!) and then he has an 'accelerated' masters program. (He basically makes a physical thesis instead of writing one, and in less than a year.) As for me, I've been out of school for so long, I'll probably have to start over. So, I'm pretty much at the beginning.

After graduation, I'm hoping we can move. I want an adventure, and I'm not going to find it here. We're hoping to move out to California so that I can attend school and work towards getting my dream job.

To be a concept artist for video games. I would love, LOOOVE to work for Naughty Dog, but I doubt that would happen. Or Santa Monica studios. But yeah, art in the video game industry is my dream. And since Cali has a high concentration of dev's, I think that's where I should be.

(And as for my non-dream, sort of dream. I would love to get my book published - my goal right now is to begin sending it off next summer. We shall see. But I don't want that to be my career.)

Right now, my channel is bare bones, me talking about cosplay. In January, I'm restarting it and I think I've decided on talking about film, books and some TV (I watch very little in the way of TV shows). A...visual entertainment channel of sorts. And not even reviews necessarily. But yeah! We'll see how it all pans out. My life just revolves around film quite a bit, so it'll be much easier to make regular videos.

Oh, I didn't mean that I don't WANT to do electronic stuff, I just meant that I personally have no experience doing it. I leave all electronic stuff up to Nate. I actually like him being involved in my cosplay life, we just don't play well with each other, so any props/electronic stuff that happens is just him - I will have not helped at all.

And by this I mean we just do things so very differently that us working on projects together don't really go anywhere, we just go in circles. He's so analytical and plans out EVERYTHING down to the tiniest detail (he even almost always makes scale minitures before he makes something) and I'm so...whimsical, I just DO things, with very little planning. And so, how he does things, I get impatient. And how I do things, I waste product and I have a tendancy to waste time. Hee, yeah.

I, like every other cosplayer on this planet, would want to cosplay Elsa. She resonates very strongly with me. And my friend paid me the sweetest compliment and told me that as soon as she watched Frozen, she thought I would make the PERFECT Elsa. She's trying to convince me to cosplay her. Which is very sweet and gives me warm fuzzies.

But in reality, I am Sven. I've seen the movie twice with different friends each time, and at the same moment in the movie, each time, my friends leaned over to me and whispered, "You're Sven!" So, I'm most drawn to doing a Gijinka Sven or something like that. Haha, I'm so weird![DOUBLEPOST=1390325433,1390325351][/DOUBLEPOST]

He did a very, VERY good job of portraying Hitler, turning a chariacture into a deeper portrayal of the man during his rise to power.

I THINK you can find it on Youtube, if you look it up. "Hitler: Rise of Evil" is the title, I believe... Writing was so-so, but Carlyle MADE that movie. Matthew Modine did a decent job, too.

I can dislocate my fingers; my fingers and wrists are very flexible, to the point where I surprised a martial arts instructor how much pressure he had to use in a grip before it started to hurt me.

I love writing longhand, my cursive varies in quality. My fountain pen is beautiful, and I just bought some lovely paper for it.[DOUBLEPOST=1393350537,1393350357][/DOUBLEPOST]Also, if you want a very impressive portrayal of Hitler, and especially Goebbels, there is a German film called Der Untergang (Downfall in English) about the last few days in the Bunker. It is the film from which the internet-famous scene of Hitler complaining about being banned from X-Box live (or various other parodies) originates. The actor who plays Hitler is quite incredible, but the one playing Goebbels was purely terrifying. Not only does he look eerily like the man, but his gaunt face and severe expression combined with worshipful zealotry for Hitler... It's a potent portrayal to say the very minimum.

I only remember once. Nearly everyone around me is a fantastic cook. And growing up with my Mum, she's AMAZING. She loves to cook and is very skilled at it. And now a days, I have dinner-nights with friends and they all cook wonderfully.

But once, when I was maybe 10, I went to eat at a neighbor's house and they were having spaghetti. Which, I thought was a safe meal, like unruinable, but NOPE. They noodles weren't cooked all the way and the sauce wasn't even...a sauce it was more like a broth? And it was weird. I didnt' like it, but I ate it most definitely.

Side note: I'm a garbage disposal when it comes to food, I will eat just about anything, even if I hate it, I'll still eat it.

You've no doubt noticed the huge rips in my blue couch.

Do you recommend replacing it, reupholstering it, or covering it?

I sure have!

Are the rips the only problem? Or is the couch beginning to be a problem structurally? Are the cushions beginning to sink into the couch? Do the arm rests sag from being used so often? If you push on the back of the couch, does it wiggle?

If the tears are the only problem, I would price out re-upholstering it and go that route!

Don't worry, @LittleKagsin, someday there will be a field trip where the US forumites travel up to visit our Half-neighbors of the North, and poutine will be ingested (and probably regretted).

I'm currently working on getting a Platinum for all of the God of War games - I started with Ascension. And I'm playing Puppeteer with Nate. As for new game? Man, I dunno. With no new gen stuff at my house, it's hard to keep up on newer games. I got Nate Watch Dogs, but I have no intention to play it?

And...some of my friends have personalized names in my phone too, like my three best friends and Nate all have Tolkien-verse themed names.

Well, you, of course, and I would probably have your ringtone be Too Much Time on My Hands because IRONY, I don't think you have any spare time on your hands. I can't give you a nickname because I don't know what race you would be. We all took a quiz telling us what Middle Earth race we would be, and everyone's name depends on that. But, I mean, not Tolkien, you would probably be something like The Other Father, or just simply Outsource.

Um, I don't know who else to do!

I'll do @Ravenpoe because I already know what ringtone he would have - Chelsea Dagger!

I would give @Dave a snippet of General Patton's speech because Dave is our fearless leader. (Hopefully the soundbite of 'we'll go through the enemy like shit through a tinhorn.' because that always made me laugh when I was younger. ...Still makes me laugh.)

GAH! This is such a hard question...

Full Metal Panic! is probably my FAV FAV. It has everything that I like, the action, the romance, the funny. It just hits all of the right notes for me, and the art style sits well with my eyes.

But I mean there are a bunch that will always be in my top: Elfen Lied (the story I thought was unique and I loved the ending), Paranoia Agent (I love mysteries, and murder mysteries in particular and this whole anime reminded me of those stories, so I was hooked! Loved the twist ending), Wolf's Rain (One word: WOLVES. Loved the mature story, but it kept the fantasy elements. GUH, CHEZA!), Host Club (It's so happy and funny, it's just easy to watch and I love that.), Ranma 1/2 (First anime I EVER saw, so it will always hold my heart.)

There are more, I'm sure, but without looking at my collection, those are what spring to mind immediately.

@Officer_Charon I don't know if I can narrow it down! I have a lot of dream cars. :heart:

I mean, my number 1 dream car is a Koenigsegg. I'm not sure why, but that super car just speaks to me! I love it. I would also LOVE a 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429 - so pretty. Those are probably my top two, but I could go on and on. (I love cars.

)

And second part of your question...I don't know. I actually hate to fall asleep to movies and I rarely if ever do so. I'm the person that's randomly awake when everyone else has fallen asleep. And, I naturally enjoy being up late at night so I find it pretty easy to stay awake until 2-3 in the morning.

@jwhouk Hmmm, that's a tough question. Probably water sports. Like, wakeboarding and other aquatic stuff. I love the water, and I would love to have a boat to scoon around in on the weekends.

@Cheesy1 haha, that's pretty debatable. I consider myself the lucky one. He puts up with A LOT from me - my crazy antics, dragging him to conventions, letting me spend all of our money on costumes. Plus, he even puts up with me on my bad days. And I do have them. =^^= It's nice that anyone considers him lucky though. :heart:

Ooo Anon, mysterious!

In the US I would really love to go to Boston or any historic town back east. I love history so any place that holds a strong sense of times gone by, I would love.

Sadly, I know very little about Canada or the different provinces. I would likely go to the place that has the highest concentration of Halforumites so I could meet everyone.

Europe is so hard because there are so many places I want to go!! But Ireland is my number one right now. It is calling my name so hard. The scenery, the people, I just want to experience it all!

As for Asia, I would go to Japan in a heart beat. There's a freaking fox temple and you can go and meet foxes and just guhh! But I really, there's a lot about Japan I would love to go and enjoy first hand, the culture, the food, the atmosphere.

So yeah! I actully plan on starting a tradition of a yearly trip out of the country next year.

Sunshine! It's pretty high on my list of favorite things.

BOTH @Bubble181 !

I like burning sunshine because I give myself sun tattoos every year and I need a lot of sun for that. And since winter is harsh, any little ray of sunshine during that time is welcome. =^^=

I am trying to figure out how to make a good Queen Beryl dress for DCC this year, because my daughter wants to be Sailor Venus but I have no desire to be a Sailor Scout. I need to figure out a way to make pushup cups as part of the dress because my tiny boobs will not do the job.

This is just my random statement of the day to spark conversation.

Feb 12, 2015#350

LittleKagsin

My best advice for the dress is to either give it straps (you can do clear ones) - that way you can wear a bra/push up. Or make it a corset style dress, that way you can wear a strapless bra and have it not fall down/shift around. You could also get 'chicken cutlets' - bra inserts.

Joann's has them and they have a lot of other sew in bra things.

Side note...I'm going to be Jupiter this year, so yay Sailor Scouts!

Feb 12, 2015#351

Dei

I wanted her to be Jupiter so that we wouldn't need a wig, but she won't stand for that.

Feb 12, 2015#352

Dei

The biggest issue with a bra is that the style of the dress basically exposes all of the inner cleavage, so a bra would be pretty visible. I still need to think on it, but start it soon since it will be way more complex that anything else I have made.

Feb 12, 2015#353

LittleKagsin

If you go with a nude colored bra, it won't be as noticeable. And you could always cut the bra up and sew it into the dress itself.

Also also, if you're worried about making it from scratch, you could always buy a purple gown online and modify the neckline. Take away some of the stress.

@Dei If it's heat resistant, you can take a straightener to it.

And if not, the hot water method should work just fine too.

I actually have no regrets about any of it. There was only two places that we intended to get to but didn't - the zoo and the SkyTree. But both of those were places Raye wanted to go and I had no feelings about them either way.

Which reminds me that I need to do a full Japan recap post or something. Complete with pics.

I mean, I would still wear a wig cap - it saves the wig from the oils of your hair and gives the pins something to attach to. Also also, a know a lot of people with short hair that use a texturizing spray since it kind of gunks up your hair, giving the bobby pins something to hold on to.

I mean, if we're being realistic here, I'm not sure I could get my hair into that hairstyle perfectly. My hair is to long, frankly; I got no bangs to do the curls in the front!

But logistically (the style reminds me of 'Gibson' girls somewhat) so I would do something similar to this:

And then the hair left out in the front, I would curl it.

Just a passionate hobby.

It sort of feeds into my career, or the career I want though.

However, I make ZERO dollars from cosplaying. I actually lose money from it. But I love it an incredible amount and I try to be somewhat smart with it - I've never gone into debt for a costume, or used rent money or anything like that. Which I've seen some others do. :S

I'm not looking to start a business, but I do hope cosplaying can help bulk up my portfolio. I'm hoping to apply to some art schools soon - get a degree in illustration and fashion design. And then, career wise, I want to make the leap to the movie industry, designing/making costumes.

I have yet to actually feel uncomfortable by something said to me on here. (THAT'S NOT A CHALLENGE!

Umm, I think the worst that's ever happened to me was on Facebook. There was a man that would send me private messages, which was fine for a while - it was all harmless - but the more we talked, he kept telling me he was in love with me. :confused:

And then he started talking about how he's afraid to go to conventions because he won't be able to control himself. And yeah, I wasn't okay with that, so I told him as such. He got mad - said a bunch of rude things to me and I blocked him, so yay?

But really, as I've stated in the past, I'm very rarely, if ever, creeped upon. It just doesn't happen to me. :S Not at cons, not on Facebook really, not DeviantArt, not Tumblr, so yep.

Oh, an awful lot!

I had a friend in middle school who had some and it was amazing. They were precious and used to steal our Beanie Babies away.

My weekend was great! I got to play video games with my husband (we just got Uncharted Remastered and we're working on Diablo III again) and then on Sunday I went to a friends' house and she introduced me to Pretty Little Liars - she sucked me in! And I haven't seen her in a really long time, so it made me happy. =^^=

Not yet.

I haven't been to very many - like maybe 3 in my whole life? So, not yet.

My biggest fear at Haunted Houses, actually, is that I'll get scared and bite someone....

I had this conversation with Pez the other day how I bite people a lot. And for different things; like love bites, or when I'm mad or just things like that (All of my friends know that I'll drop to the floor and bite their legs if they're mean to me - OH GOD, I"m so weird...) So, I'm afraid to got to haunted houses because I fear I may straight up bite one of the employees. :confused:

Zombies vs vampires: which are more played out?

How do you keep a carved pumpkin from going bad/rotting too fast?

If you had infinite hairdressers and couturiers and make up artists and anything else you need, what would your absolute ultimate super no holds barred Halloween costume look like?

You like horror movies? If so, which ones do you like most?

What Simpson Halloween Special do you remember best/like most/etc?

Are these questions Halloween-themed enough?

In the grand scheme of things, I think Vampires are more played out, but in popular culture currently, it's Zombies, no question.

Bubble181 said:

I honestly have no idea how to keep a pumpkin from going bad.

And it's been years since I carved one at all. I'm normally to preoccupied with other things to spend a night carving pumpkins.

Bubble181 said:

Lordy I don't even know. :confused:

Elvira maybe? Or Jessica Rabbit. They're iconic and fun. And are costumes I would probably need help with - makeup, hair - to get them just right.

Bubble181 said:

I love horror movies! Though I'm like...a baby newbie when it comes to them. I barely started watching them two years ago, so I really haven't seen very many...

Like straight up classics, I really love Nightmare on Elm Street. But, I'm more into horror comedies for general enjoyment: Cabin in the Woods, Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, etc etc. I don't like 'torture-porn' or just gore fests, but I'm pretty open to most any horror movie.

Bubble181 said:

LE GASP! I haven't seen any! I may have when I was younger, but I don't remember any of them. My mom was pretty against the Simpson's when I was growing up. Well, she's still probably against them to this day really. And since I don't have cable or anything, I don't keep up with the show unfortunately.

Oh man. I dunno...

I know I've thought of crazy group cosplays in the past, but nothing comes to mind. Currently, what I think would be fun to do is to get a group to do The Pantheon from The Wicked + The Divine. I just finished the first trade of the comic and The Pantheon's designs are SO COOL. So very 80's inspired/retro, I think getting a group to do all of the members would be awesome.

Easy. A leg. I watched this Ted Talk once about a model with prosthetic legs and it blew my mind on the subject.

And I think I could get a prosthetic so I could still run. But I don't know how okay I would be with losing an arm...I use them for my passions and without that, I would be really sad. I mean, my sewing and my art, I feel like I need both arms/hands for them since the work I do with that stuff is more intricate.

It was completely separate.

Cosplaying spawned from watching a lot of anime with my friends and always wishing we were someone else. Pretty much from the get go of being friends with them, any media we consumed there was always the conversation of 'Character so and so, that's you. And this character is me.' Etc etc.

So it was an easy leap from 'claiming' characters to dressing up as them. =^^=

I've just always loved the rambunctious feeling of Halloween so it's been my favorite.

Nerf darts! They're more fun, in my opinion and there's less chance for unintentional things - water in the ear, accidental drowning, etc.

Now as for my team...hmmm. I don't know? My immediate thought is either Nate or my friend Brad. Brad is very weapon savvy and he would probably be awesome. Nate is sneaky and would be really good at strategy, which I need because I'm REALLY bad at strategy stuff, so I would need a good, smart leader.

EDIT: And if I were to pick someone from Halforums, can I somewhat cheat and say the obvious @Docseverin? Because I'm small enough that I could hide behind him and then he could shoo me around and tell me where to go.

Plans for the holidays: Nothing to exciting. Spend time with Nate, go visit his family in the afternoon, and then visit my family for the evening. We're all pretty relaxed about Christmas. And really, our family 'tradition' is to open presents all day long. It's weird to me that everyone opens all of their presents at once. =^^= We open stockings, then have breakfast, open a few gifts, then partake in the gift. Like, if someone got a board game or a movie, we'll watch it/play it. And then repeat.

(Psst, you mean husband right?

)I don't know. He's thought about it and I talk about you all enough that he wouldn't be flying blind, but I just don't think it's in his wheelhouse of activities he likes. He keeps himself incredibly busy making pepakura files and creating 3D models for me and for himself. He platinums video games like I've never seen - it's probably his favorite non-working thing to do. And he creates a lot, making papercrafts, or props for me. Plus he works a fair amount, so his down time is pretty much full of other things. And he's not a very talkative guy, so talking to strangers online just isn't his thing. =^^=

I see what you did there.

As for food...I don't know? I was generally spoiled as a kid and my mum made nearly every meal fresh, from scratch, which means I can still get it. The thing that comes to mind is corner stores and their candy. I remember walking down to this one store nearly every day in the summer and getting penny candies, which are much harder for me to find these days. And they're never available 'by the piece'. They're all prepackaged and in bags now.

I'm sure she's had feathers at some point. And don't sell yourself short, I'm sure you've probably got great legs. Talons... whatever.

Reminder: owl, in contrast to chicken, does not produce edible drumsticks. Really. Don't try.

...please.

What if she did an Owl Woman costume*?

I didn't know such a character existed. I now know what I want for Christmas

I could probably just come up with an original owl design, I don't have to cosplay from source material all of the time.

Do you have a favourite holiday movie?

What's the next cosplay that you're working on?

What originally interested you in it?

Not a favorite per se, but there are a few that I watch every year - I have an extreme penchant for attaching dates/times of year to movies and watching them annually.
As far as Christmas holiday movies go: Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Love Actually, White Christmas, Die Hard, Nightmare Before Christmas, Elf, I'm sure there's more but yeah.

Squidleybits said:

Having just seen Star Wars, I feel like I need a Star Wars costume in my repertoire so I've started plans to make Darth Talon. I'm re-vamping my Arkham Knight Scarecrow. I'm working on more pieces for my OC Vixen. And I'm SLOWLY working on The Prime Evil from Diablo III, but that costume will likely take me a year or two to complete.

For the record, I'm open to suggestions as well...sometimes I get bored with my own ideas.

Squidleybits said:

In cosplay? I'm not exactly sure. I mean, for me it was a natural progression - watching anime with friends and claiming characters. But I get so much more out of it now, it's something to help keep my mind busy, my hands busy (I have twitchy hands and I need to be doing something with them almost all of the time) and it will help me in my future career path, so yeah. I'm interested in all things artistic and taking a 2D image and turning it into a 3D object is both thrilling and challenging for me.

How long would it usually take between brainstorming a costume/look and wearing it?

Would you consider doing a "They Live" cosplay so that you could do a photo shoot with @Squidleybits and her infrared camera?

[morbo] Infrared does not work that way. [/morbo]

Quiet, Morbo.

Squidleybits said:

It really depends on the costume. Nate and I started brainstorming Arkham Scarecrow on June 23rd and I finished it September 23rd (wow, I didn't even realize it was the same day 4 months later... :confused:

). Poison Ivy only took me a few days since all I had to do was glue leaves onto a corset. It varies a lot based on complexity.

Nerf darts! They're more fun, in my opinion and there's less chance for unintentional things - water in the ear, accidental drowning, etc.

I have yet to be shot in the eye when Nate and I have nerf wars, so

And, for the record, I'd rather be shot in the eye by a nerf dart over water. Water wreaks HAVOC on my contacts and that's really a problem for me, since, you know, I can't see without them.

AHAAa...it's coming. I've been dog-sitting (as you know - the huskies) for over a week and that's really put me behind. The convention is in two weeks, but I think I'll manage to finish her up. It's just the stupid jacket that's why more complicated than it has any right to be.[DOUBLEPOST=1457716887,1457716785][/DOUBLEPOST]

Your avatar is beeping flirtatiously at me. How do I respond without leading it on?

Have you considered asking me questions to resolve your boredom? (see https://www.halforums.com/threads/ama-three-word-edition.31813/ )

What inside jokes or puns do you have at work or with one or more co-workers?

When does Nate start his job (or has he already begun)?

Does that mean you're stuck there for two years while he builds his resume, or are you moving for this job?

When you're out running and you see another runner approaching from the opposite direction, how do you act/react?

What is something you want to do, but haven't due only to worry/anxiety/etc?

Accept the compliment, but be upfront about your interest. "Thank you so much, but I'm not interested in you like that."

(HAAAA!)

stienman said:

Yes! But I generally feel stupid when I post on here, so I avoid posting if I can.

stienman said:

Unfortunately zero. My job is pretty isolated and I barely interact with anyone, so I don't get to have a rapport/get to joke around with them.

stienman said:

It's already started!

He started on Monday, so he made it through his first week at the new job. Yay!!

stienman said:

Yep, pretty much. Unless we could find someone in California that would hire him. I'm actually really heart broken that we have to stay here. It's just..incredibly frustrating. Nope, not moving for this job, it's even within walking distance of our house, just like his last job. So, here we stay.

stienman said:

First I make sure I'm not in their path, I move to the left or right, whichever gets me out of their way. And then as we pass, I do a smile and wave, sometimes with a head nod too. In my mind I always say encouraging things to them as well. =^^=

stienman said:

Oh, a lot of things. A lot of it deals with being social. I have some intense social anxiety, so that keeps me from creating strong bonds with many people and keeps me home a lot of nights. I even have anxiety from here, so I post not a lot. Uh, and of course, cosplay. There are many characters I love and adore, but because I'm not in the best physical shape, I CANNOT (I can actually, I just tell myself I can't) cosplay them because with my body the way it is, I won't do the character justice. And then a big one - applying for school. I've told people I'm going to do it and I have started gathering everything I need to do so, but I just can't. I want to go to school so bad. SO BAD. But I just can't. There's a lot of things about that whole process that worry me to an extreme degree.

Thank you, I appreciate that. :heart:

It's just a weird struggle I have - I do the same thing in real life that I do on here. Like, after a party or social gathering, when I get home I analyze every little thing I said or did. Did I dominate the conversation? Was I obnoxious and in everyone's face? Were my stories stupid and not worth telling? Was I mean? Did I make rude jokes at someone's expense? Which leads me to - was my post useful? Did it serve a purpose or was it stupid? Did I say something mean? Did they understand what I meant? Did they get my joke? I have these long conversations with myself about things and it's, it's tough. So, if I don't post it eliminates all of that.

This feels stupid even now. I feel like it's complaining or trying to garner sympathy, which is not my intention. Bleh. =^^= Haha!

And remember, no matter what you post, you'll never post anything as stupid as has already been posted by somebody else, nor as mean as, heck, as mean as some of the things I've posted in the past.

Haha! Well, that's probably true.

I just wish I was more witty or interesting so I could have more to say, or reply to, but I find it really hard to post just for posts' sake.
