I am once again contemplating attempting Seishirou's kimono from the wedding pic (curiously, is there a reason it's called that?)
This is bad. I swore I would never do those outfits, as I would kill both myself and my wallet getting them done. But...they're so pretty, and the dyeing and painting would be an intresting challenge...
...Okay. I'm going to go hit my head against something until I can convince myself that this is a Bad Idea.

And a while back, someone had written a bunch of 'vows' on the picture, too. Like over a year ago. Eh ^^;;

And yeah, mostly because of the red string and the veil and stuff. The way they're standing side-by-side...

It's okay if you can't wear purple, honey.
Not everyone can pull off modern fashion with enough flare.
"Flaming" would be orange. Purple is fine for modern business. But I didn't expect everyone to be as up on high-class fashion as I am.
Who spent hours in Men's Clothing stores, doing research, and over $1,000 on their Sei costume? Yeah, that's what I thought...
::coughvaluevillagecough::

Seishirou certainly wears one of those.

The wig was cool, if not accurate, which I have redeemed since then.
Man, you really are insecure if you take a conversation about whether or not Sei would wear a purple tie and turn into a personal assault against one's costume.
And yeah, I love wigs. I also love my hair, which is why I don't torture it with vicious haircuts and hair dye for all the costumes I do. Well, except for Kiba...that guy BUTCHERED my hair. >.>;; Which only re-enforces my desire to use wigs.

I'm sure it is.
And you keep talking like the purple tie is the ONLY thing I wear. I have your "canon" outfit, too, you know...black tie and short black hair (excuse me, wig) and all.
I'm just a more versatile Seishirou than you. I adapt and blend into any situation :D

Heh. Nice to know I have not one but _two_ Seishirou cosplayers threatened by my good looks and charm, though ;).

Date: 2003-12-04 11:36 pm (UTC)From:Yeah, but the point being, -I- wasn't the one harping on how important is it was to be "canon" Seishirou.
I was just pointing out that I own "canon" Seishirou as well, plus more. Which, apparently, you do, too.
...
What were we arguing about again?
I think it's time to put this thread to bed...
