Hey guys!
I was at the anime convention in Colorado this weekend (NDK), and it struck me that some of you may have been there as well!
if you were, I'd love to know! maybe we saw each other!
I was wearing a pretty badass costume. Should I post pictures?
Show me the pictures you took, too!

 I decided to upload my costume! I'm the one on the right (as those of you who just saw it in the 'geezer pics' thread already know), but I think its sort of obvious 'cause I blocked out my friend's eyes! lol We were pirates, because we felt like the pirate:ninja ratio needed to be evened out a little. also, pirates rock.

Bah. Pirates. Ninja are obviously superior, as Dr. McNinja illustrates.
I suppose pirates have their uses, though. Talk like a Pirate Day is fun for confusing and irritating people.
I never manage to go to conventions. This is because I have no money for travel. I envy you.

YACHlRU nice rapier. do you swordfight? My bf and his brother are swordfighters, they are involved in the Society for the Study of Swordsmanshipme and my friends dressed up the other year to see PotC3 at the cinemas. I wish I could sword fight. Those rapiers were my friend's, he got 3 of them from an antique shop a long time ago. One of them is stained pretty badly, and mine had a hard time getting out of the hilt. Also, the blades weren't sharp at all. but the handles were freaking awesome, and that's what counted. (technically, we weren't supposed to have anything with a metal blade at the con, but we sort of snuck them in) Morgan (pictured on the left) also had a really cool pistol and my other friend (taking the picture) had a sweet cutlass. (she had the 3rd rapier too) EDIT: I'm looking to buy my own awesome weapons for this costume. . . anyone know where I could find something that looks sweet like this? (for like, not too much mulah).

I'll probably get shot for saying this out loud, but I like them both equally sweatdrop
But seriously? If I had to think about it I would probably rather be a ninja just because in a life threatening situation I figure that a ninja would have better chances at success. But that's not saying that I wouldn't be going around swipeing nick-nacks I see. So I guess I'd be a rogue ninja, or basicly a PIRATE NINJA!
I remember when I was in high school I asked my mom if she would support my decision to be a pirate. I was dead serious too. I don't think she even looked at me. It was a while ago, but I do remember she didn't utter a single word and just continued doing whatever it was she was doing at the time. I tried a couple days later with a ninja proposal instead, that was shot in the foot, a**, and basicly blown sky high too.
So 6 years later, I'm a mangaka...WHERE I CAN BE ANYTHING I WANT TO BE!!!! scream kinda.... rofl

So that's where the Tooth Fairy's at, ey?
xD
Oh pity, the only times I wore a costume at a certain gathering where at school... My last one was when I was in the hmmm 6th grade yes, my school was having a party to celebrate the old building we where in, it was 300 years old, formerly an all girls school. That building rocked...
I was a musketeer, and I loved it. =]
And now I just wear costumes at home for the sake of artistic photography sessions with my friend.
I want to dress up damnit!

I used to say Ninjas until I accidentally became a pirate at the Ren Fest... And I have to say, it's so much more liberating to be a pirate! There are not nearly as many rules as there are when being a ninja and you don't always have to work alone and you can literally do anything you want to do anytime you like!
I feel like a blasphemer after typing that... sweatdrop
