Deviation Actions
This concerns what I will and will not do at conventions, along with my general requests concerning things.
What I Will Do:
Pairing pictures with my friends
Yaoi photos with my boyfriend if we're doing a boy/boy pairing
Any requested poses
Give hugs to those who ask
What I Will NOT Do:
Anything embarassing, or something that I am uncomfortable to do in front of a stranger for a photo
Kiss you [NEVER~!]
Give panty shots if I'm cosplaying a girl
Flash you
General Requests:
If you are going to be attending, and spot me, please respect my requests as listed:
If you see that I am resting/eating/talking with someone, please let me be until I have finished. If you are asking for a photo, please be patient with me, we all need rest/food/to talk with friends.
Please, do NOT GLOMP ME!!! My back has been out of whack lately, and I don't want it worse. Also, it could cause damage to my wig, costume, or prop(s). Also, I don't think my friends want to be glomped either, or my boyfriend. We will however, accept hug requests if we're asked.
If you find that I'm in a rush to somewhere, you can ask me for a photo, but please be quick, as I may be heading to meet friends, or am late for something. Otherwise, please let me be on my way.
If you would like a picture with me, please just ask. Please keep in mind, I will not kiss you if you ask. Hug, sure thing. But any funny business and you'll be K.O.'d either by me or my boyfriend.
Please, I beg of you, if you want to touch my wig, ASK! I don't want people randomly petting my wig. It freaks me out if someone touches my head without my knowing or approval.
Prop Concerns:
If I am carrying a prop, please take these things into consideration.
You can NOT handle my prop(s) without my permission. Please ask me. If I say no, do not be offended.
No, I'm not selling it. I was asked at one point at Anime North 2009 if I would sell my Oblivion keyblade. I do not sell props that I spend hours on unless they've been commissioned or are a gift. Otherwise, NO!
I try to be as careful as I can when I am carrying any props. At Anime North 2009 my Oblivion was slung over my shoulder when I was walking as it was the easiest way for me. I had to be very careful not to hit someone. Please, if you're behind me, be cautious as I can't see what's going on at my back.
Costume Concerns:
Please take these into consideration if you encounter me at a convention or event.
Pieces of my costume(s) are bound to be delicate, so when you go past me or hug me, please be careful or else you may damage it.
NO! Like with my props, no! I am not selling a piece of it. I've been asked if I would sell my collar and leash that I use for my Halloween Town Roxas cosplay, and I will not sell any item from my costume, no matter how much is offered.
No, not all of my costumes are made from scratch. Some are made from bases, and some are store bought. I don't always want to MAKE the costume, but I will if I so choose.
DO NOT STEP ON MY COSTUME DAMMIT!!! We all hate having people step on our toes/heels. So why would you step on a person's costume? It's downright rude! And in the process, you can either damage, or dirty the costume! I don't want to find another footprint on any part of my costumes again! It was not easy to wash out, and I don't want to spend 2 hours doing it again [I wash ALL my costumes by hand lest something be ruined in the washing machine]
Makeup Concerns:
All or most cosplayers wear makeup at a convention/event. So please remember these things if you meet me.
Please, if it's obvious that I'm wearing makeup, don't touch my face! I don't like people touching my face period. I don't even like family members doing it. I don't want my makeup smudged!
Even if you cannot tell that I'm wearing makeup, please don't touch my face.
Yes I do all of my makeup by myself. There may be the odd times where I have a friend help me, as it will depend on where it needs to be applied. [Like for AntiZexion, someone needs to apply paint to the back of my neck]
If I have makeup somewhere other than my face [like my neck or something] no, you can NOT touch it. It may come off on your hand or go onto a part of my costume.
Wig Concerns:
Please, this is important!
YOU CAN NOT TOUCH MY WIG DAMMIT! I don't like people touching my head in general, so please don't touch my wig without asking. Even then, I may say no.
If you're in a rush, do not push me! I had that happen at my first convention, and I had to have a friend come and help me as I'd been pushed into a tree, and my wig was stuck in the branches. It caused some slight damage to my wig, and I don't want to have to go through that again. No one should.
If I do allow you to touch my wig, please be gentle with it. Spikes are rather delicate. Though with two of my wigs they don't have spikes, but they are not tight on my head, so they don't sit quite right and can slip easily.
I use got2bglued in my wigs for a reason. They're meant for hair. Not paper. I personally don't like the idea of using PVA/white/school glue in wigs. On paper yeah, but not on wigs. Nor hot glue either. Bad idea altogether.
And again, NO! Like with my props and costume pieces, I will not sell them. If I'm ever asked that question again at a convention, I will yell at the person asking.
Photo Concerns:
Please remember these things.
If you want a photo, please just come up and ask me. I pretty much always say yes. I don't mind having my picture taken, and it's rather fun posing for a photo, as I know that they all turn out differently.
Please, no candid photos. They are not that interesting, and if you want a picture ask and I'll pose.
If you want a picture with me, I'm 100% okay with that. I don't bite. If you want I can do any pose that involves a form of interaction. I can have an arm around your shoulders, pretend I'll kiss you (so our lips are at least 10cm apart), or look like I'm protecting you. Any are fine. I can even look like I'm going to kill you (will work best for my vicious characters like Rider and Neuro).
If you want to take multiple pictures of me in different poses, I don't mind. But please make sure you ask me. And if you have certain poses you want me to do, ask. But please refer to the first two sections at the top of this journal.
Personal Concerns:
I would like you to keep in mind of the following about me.
I am self-conscious. I have certain issues with things that I will not disclose here. I prefer not to show certain things. Which is why my more revealing cosplays won't be until 2010, and even then I shall be nervous.
I don't like being touched without my knowledge. And if I'm touched in appropriately I will inform someone to about it, or you will face my wrath.
I am normally soft-spoken, so if you would like me to repeat something, please don't say "What?!" Just say "could you repeat that?"
I do what I want. Get used to it.
I'd say those are pretty reasonable. If you have any questions, please just ask.
What I Will Do:
Pairing pictures with my friends
Yaoi photos with my boyfriend if we're doing a boy/boy pairing
Any requested poses
Give hugs to those who ask
What I Will NOT Do:

Long Time
It's been a long while since I signed in and posted. I don't know if I'll ever make a full return to deviantart, but I'll try to post at least one photo of every costume here. I've been far more active on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook the past year. It seems crazy to think that a year ago I was preparing for Costume Con in Montreal, and then it was cancelled while I was on my way there. Which sucked. Since then I've finished a few costumes and started others. I've been slowly working away at Lucifer Magne from Hazbin Hotel and Princess Hilda from Final Fantasy II. In addition to working on Lucifer and Hilda, I've also started Valentino and Vox also from Hazbin Hotel, and planning a new Yoko cosplay and to start Demise (Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword) later this year. I started to spend a lot of time on TikTok, which I have been spending a lot of time dedicated to. I've had a lot of fun with it and done quite well.
Richard Sharpe - Sharpe's Rifles Help
So I'm making my very first historical costume, and with only buying 3 fabrics, 3 spools of thread, and a pattern for it, the costume is proving that it is going to be quite expensive.
So I'm asking if people here are willing to buy me a coffee over on ko-fi to help fund this piece of insanity.

Otakuthon in 1 Month... I don't know what I'm doin
Normally, I have everything figured out way ahead so that I don't have any guess work when it comes time to prepare for a convention. This year for Otakuthon is proving to be very different for that. For the first time in a number of years for Otakuthon, I don't know what all I'm going to wear.
The only thing that I know for sure is that I will be making Sailor Mercury (part bought/part made) to wear, and I'm not sure what day yet - maybe Sunday.
I want to bring Pyramid Head, but this is going to be really dependent on space in my van, as I'll have 7 people and all of their luggage. So this is going to be difficult if I bring him because of
