God fucking damn it leave these poor lesbians alone
Let’s face it, at one point in time you’ve experienced a wardrobe malfunction and needed a quick fix. When you’re at a con, your cosplay is subject to lots of abuse at times! Heat, pushy crowds, drunkeness (lol), food accidents, etc. Stuff happens. So here is one way to be one step ahead!
Bring a repair kit with things you may need to permanently or temporarily fix your cosplay. Here are some ideas on what to bring:
A small sewing kit containing thread that matches each of your costumes and a needle or two.
Safety pins are great to have with you when you aren’t in the hotel room in case something pops that needs to be temporarily held!
A small first aid kit with some form of pain killer, band-aids, and hand sanitizer. (Band-aids come in really handy for blisters on your feet!)
Try to bring extra supplies. Hair nets, bobby pins, clips, things of that sort. Small things are easy to lose! This also goes for pieces of your costume that could potentially fall off, like rhinestones or small pieces of trim. Bring extra and the tools you need to reapply those!
Super glue. Just bring it, you’ll use it. Haha. Or a hot glue gun!
Scissors are handy too
Addition: I forgot to add bring a bleach pen or wipes for your clothes in case you spill food or something!
These are just a few things that can make a really big difference when something goes awry! Keep this kit in your hotel room or nearby in your car and everything should be a-okay!
Happy cosplaying!
If you think that Tina wouldn’t have a Gemsona, you are kidding yourself.
Day Before
Pack a bag with: water-bottle, snacks, money, phone, phone charger, anything you want signed, headphones, jacket
What to wear:
If you are cosplaying: cosplay, comfy shoes (bring extra make up and change of comfy clothes)
If you are not cosplaying: geeky/anime/nerd t-shirts and appropriate bottoms, comfy shoes for lots of walking (sneakers are good), jacket if cold

*-If you are tired or hungry, tell the group, they probably are too

-Before purchasing something, walk around more and see if you actually want it (also check prices for deals at other booths)(also check online for deals)
-If you purchase something, it is your responsibility to carry it
*-We suggest that you buy your big purchases (posters, wigs, figurines, etc) toward the end of the con
-Often check on your things, do not leave them unattended

***-Con food is overpriced and usually not so good, try to bring your own or wait till dinner (lunch is usually skipped, just all snacking)

I love novahd fanfics that are like “I opened the door for my Aleks and wrapped him in a blanket in case he got cold” when in reality it would be like “I tripped the fucker on the way to the car and stole the blanket for myself cause the lil shit doesn’t deserve it”
there are 3 themes that get visited frequently with the water signs. the water element is very dynamic and internally rich. it really encompasses a divine nectar that flows through all of us. water signs are like an access point to heavenly nourishment. firstly there is a high reactivity to their environment. there is also an acute spiritual radar. and there is often a pronounced need to withdraw into solitude
water people are acutely sensitive to the environment, it’s like the lines between themselves and others are blurred and dissoluble. any ether that is circulating, emotional, psychic, unmet desire, conflict, nervous, and unhealed wounds are absorbed. the music of the invisible world plays a loud orchestra in their ears. emotions tend to be experienced on a more extensive and exhaustive wave, inexplicable to those with their heads above the ocean. these emotional experiences are also enduring and difficult to recover from. the individual can suppress it from the mind but the body and spirit will still ache. the pain of decades ago can leak the same intense anguish of happening yesterday. there is also a longer recovery periods from emotional episodes than that experienced by others. water people are typically unable to deflect emotions. they hear the cries of others like howls in their heart. it’s like constantly swallowing water, being able to feel like you can properly breathe. as soon as one storm passes another conjures.
within the water person awaits the gateway to a spiritual palace, filled with the wisdom of all eternity. it’s like they are a holding place, a book that divine scripture can be written into. this is not always a spiritual emphasis in a religious sense. there can be a deep connection to the earth, air, wind, and sun, the individual can sing to the birds and talk to the flowers. water suggests a reception to psychic and occult phenomena, and the divine may express itself through methods and conduct the individual finds hard to ignore. music, art, clairaudiance or clairvoyance, or resonance with esoteric studies may be some of these.
the deep sea is full of mystery and depths we have still physically not managed to uncover. likewise, there are internal complexes so deep and profound it can be difficult for the individual to even contemplate or comprehend. the static of other people, the deafening voices of the world, the intense emotional hurricanes can be wearying. sleep offers a momentary solace, but even dream life tends to be vivid and potent. often there is an internal demand to retreat in solitude, hideaway from the clamor of the world, conceal themselves within their sanctuary, a cavern that is protected, guarded, where nobody can touch them. this cavern can also be what separates the water individual, what distances them from truly connecting with others for fear, alienation, or hyper vigilant defense mechanisms. even the conditions of childhood left bruises deep enough for the individual to begin building walls subconsciously for much of their lives. the water person mostly figures they are safest inside.
