120. Fuck yes, Kerowyn. I love that book; it's by far my favorite of Lackey's work.

129. I don't know about her but if I had carrots from Johnny Depp I'd be quite happy. :D

137. I've been on both sides of long-running fandom stuff before, and from my experience almost nobody hates on the kind of newbie you are.

158. Somebody write this. It'd be amazing.

164. I won't lie and say there aren't people on the internet who don't appreciate heavier cosplayers. There's people on the internet who don't appreciate cosplayers unless they look like plastic surgery goddesses and even then they'll hate them for minor physical flaws. That shit is NOT OK, though. I encourage you to try anyway. There aren't too many but there are overweight characters out there. Skinny ladies or skinny gents will never be able to pull them off, so do one and rock the socks off everybody. (Two of my very favorite cosplays ever are both done by heavy people, one as Porco Rosso and the other as the Witch of the Waste.)

175. You lived with Gaiman as a neighbor?! You lucky, lucky person. (As much as I love his books, I don't think I'd love them quite as much if I didn't adore Gaiman himself from the one signing I went to and reading his blog.)

164 - Someone who's overweight doesn't even necessarily have to play an OVERWEIGHT character, just maybe one that doesn't wear extremely revealing clothing. Look a little, and there are plenty of characters out there who wear flowy or concealing clothing, and that makes hiding extra pounds easy.

Re: 164

I actually agree with you (I love well-done costumes no matter who's wearing them, provided they aren't things like 300 pound girls in bikinis. Or 75 pound girls in bikinis, for that matter. It's a matter of dressing to flatter yourself) but for someone who's nervous that they'll be hated just for being overweight, doing an overweight character could be a good way to get started and build up some confidence. :D

Oh, SIGNED! I think the most frightening cosplayer I've ever seen actually wasn't overweight -- she was a Yoko who was so thin her bones were basically sticking out all over. I'll take a little extra flab over that!

And about the rest... yeah ^^ I did Akimichi Chouji last Otakon and had an absolute BLAST.

Oh god yes. I agree. I agree so much.
