1. That's so cute. I have a fandom friend who's first language is Spanish and she does the same thing whenever commenting on my fanart/fanfic. It doesn't make you a bad friend.

5. I think you should at least make an effort to cosplay a character you can pull off. I wouldn't cosplay say ... er ... some character that looked blatantly Asian or crossplay as a character that looked really really male regardless of how much I liked the character. Or if you do want to cosplay a character that you can't easily pull off, at least make a strong effort to make it convincing with makeup or whatever other techniques you might need. There are a lot of characters out there that I absolutely adore that I know I couldn't cosplay and therefore I won't. Luckily, a good deal of my favourite characters or extensions of my favourite characters fall into the sphere of what I'd feel confident cosplaying. Yes, it's first and foremost for fun, but there's also an element of wanting to be as convincing as possible. I have friends who cosplay who are every body type and build and we all work with it.

8. Hehe. Totally.
