It's 4:15 AM and I'm still awake. Feeeear. Anyway, spent most of my day sewing, with a brief aside into playing video games (Kingdom Hearts yay!), and doing a mini-update on Yuuzai. And drinking lots of tea. Seriously, I've had three or four cups already - two of mint, at least, and one of vanilla maple (it tastes like butterscotch, it's odd), and possibly another one I can't remember. And that was seriously about it.
I now feel the urge to go on a long-winded rant about something, but I already ranted to Marina about how I feel it's vaguely pretentious to go by the name of characters online - yay for my inner bitter cosplayer ^^ And I'm not awake enough for my 'Why LJ kind of sucks' rant I keep meaning to write...Murasaki touched on a few of the points here - I knew there was a reason I've kept reading her blog all these years (Seriously, third one I started reading. First was Heidi, second was Leareth...or maybe Leareth was third and Murasaki second, I can't remember now).
Also, for your random amusement - Isee cosplay dead people! No, really. It suddenly came to me when I was talking to Marina. All of the characters I've cosplayed or plan on cosplaying have died in some canon form aside from Yolei. Clow's dead, Tatsumi's dead, Seishirou's dead, Subaru died in the movie, Fuuma died in the movie and the anime, and Sephiroth splats at the end of FF7. I think the only person who beats me for dead person-cosplay is Ari, who's got Seishirou and Sephiroth, plus movie!Akio, who splats, and Nagare, who seems to wish he was dead, and probably would have accomplished it too if Tatsumi and Watari hadn't shown up.
...Okay, that ended up as a long-winded ramble instead of a rant. Yay early morning. Oh, and happy slightly belated birthday to MD, and I hope you have a wonderful trip, Mara ^^
(Oh, and Leareth, I have your icon...you signed off right after I uploaded it ^^)

Ah, aren't we all? ^_~ Wasn't he actually kind of happy and nice at the end? I mean, he hauled his sorry, lazy, apathetic ass to save Kamui so...>_> Um...yeah, maybe he got over Seishirou's death or something.
...or he just started looking on the bright side of life ~~

(I first saw her blog through Val's, so that was a loooooong time ago - but at the time I was obsessing on Leareth & Taryn so I didn't read much else of any other blogs). I said something similar on my last blog entry (http://mambo.pitas.com) (although very waffly^^;;;). I'd like to see what you have to say on the subject.

Just a suggestion; Subaru & Hokuto twins co-ordinated outfits (like the blue & red or something). ^_^

I cosplay dead people!
I've only been properly cosplaying for a year or so, but it seems like almost everyone on my list of characters I want to cosplay is dead. But that's what I get for being a Gundam fan.
