Somebody hit me, please

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.

Uh... dude? I freely admit that I can't sew. But Clare didn't sew it either- and I bought the materials and such.

So I guess your definition of cosplayer is not the person that wears the clothes, but the one that makes them? Then yeah, I have X Seishirou and Sephiroth. And Clare's mom has the shikifuku. But I own it.

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

Well, if you go by craftsmanship judging guidlines, the one wearing the costume gets a pat on the back and some photos taken, and the one that made it gets the prize ^^ I tend to think of the cosplayer as the one who puts the costume together and wears it, which doesn't really work so well here. My point was more credit where it's due ^^

And I'm not feeling at all threatened, just particularly annoying today ^^ But Nicole is right, it's probably about time to put this particular debate to rest ^^ I can find something else to amuse me torrow, I suppose.
