soltianIt was amazing. Here is a clipped and sweet summary of each day in a few sentences and a few photos each.
Friday:
-Made a million frillion keychains with the help of Kat and Theresa and basically everyone at the table. Business started off amazing, and I sold out of Loki prints almost immediately god damn.
-Met Mattie, who hung out behind the table and spotted for me a LOT and is awesome and one by one I will put everyone in the Marvelrpers group in my pocket because I want to take them all home with me.
-Met Revivi, who starstruck me so hard with how fucking GORGEOUS she was that I was incoherent and incredibly creepy. BUT SERIOUSLY LOOK AT THIS.
Saturday:
-Finally got into costume and took tons of pictures with the SP photoshoot and then with Kim, Theresa, Jill, Cathy, and Melyssa. We found a dark corner of the alley that was actually perfect for dramatic gritty mood lighting for Coon and Friends.
HERE ARE SOME PHOTOS.
Yours truly as the mysterious and dashing Mysterion.

sumeragiskank as the cute and cuddly little Coon.
labyrinth1n3 as the soaring, powerful Human Kite.
And Jill (whose LJ name I don't have) as the diligent and reliable Toolshed.
Cathy (also, LJ name missing) put together an amazing Cthulhu costume to go with us, so the ...dark...? Coon and Friends took an awkward family photo together.
Speaking of awkward family photos, we decided on the spot that Cthulhu was actually Kenny's father. Mysterion took a while to warm up to the idea (MY CHIN IS AMAZING IN THIS).
But soon they were playing catch like the best of pals!
Cartman get away from that WE DON'T WANT A REPEAT OF LAST YEAR.
After a *cough* rough incident with the Coon, Toolshed supports a wounded Human Kite while Mysterion keeps the villain in check.
And then we posed like the power rangers.
UM WHAT ELSE. I met up with some Digimon people briefly but missed the slumber party because I was alley-bound and exhausted :( I managed my time surprisingly well and got all my keychains done without too much of a fuss!
Sunday
-Went to Kinkos again because I kept running out of prints I SUCK SO BAD AT GETTING ENOUGH but then they kind of messed them up so I had to run back and get more while trying to work on commissions and that was kind of a balls.
-I dashed around the AA as it was closing to trade stuff with people and got a couple of really amazing prints AND I'M SO HAPPY I need to get a binder to put all these in so I can have fat stacks of amazing.
-BUT THEN AFTER ANOTHER GOOD DAY OF ALLEY-ING we went out to lunch/dinner/food at Hooters with a ton of amazing people and it was really good and then we went home and fucking passed out.
THE END. IT WAS GOOD.
