I didn't do too many costuming days this year... it was soooooo incredibly crowded. Saturday was sold out in pre-order (which never happens), and even Sunday sold out early in the day. I had a very low-key con year, but I did manage to catch a few pictures. Since I have so few this year, I have concocted a little story--a shot of fiction, if you will-- for your enjoyment (and by you, I mean Amber. My one and only oh-so-loyal viewer. Word.).
I have taken a few liberties with time/days, context, blah blah, and so on and so forth. Please proceed.
You need Big Money at the con. Big money, people. Big money.

But there was a plethora of wondrous artwork for the average convention goer to enjoy. (**DISCLAIMER** Yes, I know this is not ACTUALLY inside the convention center, but in Horton Plaza down the street. Also, I am aware that this lovely piece of artwork was not created for the sole purpose of entertaining the aformentioned convention goers. But work with me people-- and by people I mean Amber. I believe I mentioned a fictional story. So dash your skeptical and mocking expression Amber North. Please read on.) 
I was particularly fond of this Aladdin rendition. Aladdin went hard-core. (No, Amber, I don't know the girl. She just happened to be have the misfortune to walk by as I snapped this picture. But as she is relatively attractive-- with the exception of those rather unfortunate pants-- consider it a bonus and move on. Do continue.)

And I DID walk around with Brianna in costume one day. We ran into Victoria as Slave Leia (right on) 
Celebration Leia was I

And Bri was Alice

Which she pulled off BEAUTIFULLY!

Isn't she darling?
Leia and Alice...

Ran into all manner of monsters... (such as an Evil Dark Lord)

(A huge slug-like creature named Jabba, and his little Slave Girl)


...Fascinating Scoundrels were aplenty






...As were curious creatures
Like stone Gargoyles

And Armored Bears
  As well as Armed Wookies
 And we cannot forget the lurking Spiderman
One-Eyed Former Professors

Curious creatures, all.
Curiouser...


...And Curiouser

Or a wizard... you know. Seems like everybody and their grandma’s dog has a theory for what lies ahead for our friend Harry Potter. There are even books about the theories of what's next for Harry, which side is Snape really on, etc... I, also have a theory. I came up with it last summer, I believe, and here I shall share it again. Lucky you, oh cosmic void. Here it is, my original (slightly tongue-in-cheek) Harry Potter Theory. Absorb it like a sponge, oh void.
MAYBE... Ginny and Malfoy will get locked in the potions closet accidentally, and come together in a wild night of inexplicable, yet surprisingly hot animal sex. Not wanting to look a gift horse in the mouth, they arrange to *ahem* 'run into' each other outside the closet each week. Poor, unsuspecting Ron (sent to fetch some soon-to-be-forgotten potion for Harry) walks in during a particularly explosive interlude involving a broom (don't ask) and one of Neville's grandmother's hats (again, don't ask). Traumatized and horrified by what he's seen (particularly because he had to look at his enemy's Smiling Moon in order to avoid looking at his sister's Birthday Suit), Ron feels compelled to challenge Malfoy to a duel to the death.
BUT fate has a funny way of playing us all...
The two meet at dawn, wands at the ready (with Harry as Ron's second of course) and He Who Must Not Be Named chooses that exact moment to appear for yet another attempt to kill Harry. Unfortunately for him, he materializes between our two young duelists, taking the brunt of two killing curses. With a loud *POP*, and a cloud of smoke that smells suspiciously like chicken, the Dark Lord is no more. (One down)
Feud forgotten, there is much merriment and drinking of extra special... pumpkin juice... While making a toast later in the evening, Ron looks up to see his greatest enemy once again sucking on the face of his baby sister (very traumatic indeed). With an incoherent cry of rage, he jumps up with the intention of forcibly removing Ginny from Malfoy's lap. BUT (having had a little too much 'special' in his pumpkin juice), he trips over Harry's chair, knocking himself and his friend to the ground where they tragically and unexpectedly brain each other on the sharp grey rocks (two more down). "Boys," Hermione sighs.
Ginny marries Malfoy and they move to a 14-bedroom, 7-bathroom, 21-potion-closet mansion in Romania. Last I heard they had six children.

And by baby, I mean the most famous child star of all time... Shirley Temple, featured in another horrid photoshop desktop background by Amy. Yo.

I could have danced all night! And still have begged for more. I could have spread my wings And done a thousand things I've never done before.
(Like sleep, eat, leave the apartment, write something besides capstone, relax, breathe, etc.) Because my capstone is finally completed! BOOYAH!
Thats all I have to say.
