Bring On The Hollows!
Saturday was cosplay day, moonlight masquerade day, volunteer day, collapse in bed exhausted day. That was the basic layout. I woke up at 9am.
At 11am I was showered and in my Hisagi outfit at last.
At 12noon Jen was doing her hair.
At 12:30pm Jen was doing my hair, it wouldn't spike at all.
At 1:30 (or something like that) we eventually got out the hotel and started over to the TCC for the Bleach photoshoot.
At 2pm we got the the TCC, there had been a few photo-hunters lurking in the Doubletree lobby.
At 2:10 pm we were out of the parking lot and onto the grass in front of the TCC because of an accident someone had had.
Eventually after an hour of photos we got to leave the TCC area and go eat at the Sushi Dragon across the street, I could hardly say I wasn't dressed for it so despite my dislike of sushi I went with 5 of the others and got some noodles (can't go wrong with noodles).
After that everyone went to the dealers room to spend more money. After the binge the day before I was a little more cautious but still planned to buy some stuff, pretty quickly I was left alone with Nelly while everyone else went exploring. I got some stuff but we had to leave and go to get ready for the Masquerade Ball which started at 11pm. It was around 6pm when we got back to the room.
It was 11:15pm when we left the room and headed for the ballroom. There was a massive queue which wasn't moving due to yet another accident, fortunately the line was more than capable of entertaining itself. A bit of happy birthday singing here, a guy who wanted a photo just because I was English there and we were soon moving on. I was in my work trousers and (cleaned a little) work shoes with my awesome blue dragon shirt and a necklace I'd bought. Add that to my straightened hair and I probably would've fucked my own reflection.
The ball stunk. After about an hour (if that) in there and a few instances of nearly falling asleep I excused myself and went up to the room to prepare for a night at the yaoi viewing rooms. With a big yawn I grabbed my stuff and left the room.
Then halfway across the bridge to the Renaissance I realised I'd forgotten my badge.
Eventually I got over there though and settled down to watch Ai no Kusabi, the choice of the previous person looking after the room. Seemed like an odd viewer's choice to me so the next 2 films were democratically chosen, as everyone knows if you give a yaoi fan the chance they will want to watch Sensitive Pornograph.
My companion in there was a Sasuke cosplayer originally from Siberia. As I was a little lonely sat on my own (and he was hot, and spoke to me) I moved to sit by him. In my mind there was a lot more going on than just sitting, but outside my mind that was it with a bit of occasional chatting in quiet bits. After a while I asked the girl who'd been put in charge of changing discs under the last supervisor to take the stuff back up to Gryvon's (Yaoi North organiser) room as I needed to get back and get some sleep, I couldn't stay another hour and do it myself. There were Spec Ops in the room anyway. I trailed across the bridge in the early morning Toronto sunlight and collapsed fully clothed into bed next to Nelly.
