pezNeed to catch up on the music meme. I'll make a separate post for that.
I'm now officially late for the D1 exchange, and I'm still getting NOWHERE with the fic. Plot points just Don't Join Ip. I think I'll have to pull out and apologise. But, gonna give it one last go today first.
Went to a cosplay picnic last Saturday. Photos are here and there's a post about it here. On Sunday Storme and I met up with her friends and we chatted the day away, migrating from food place to food place around Spitalfields.
When I'm not sulking over fic or doing stuffin the great outdoors outside the house, I'm working on this. The discrepancies between official art/in-game/anime make things rather confusing but I'm doing my best. I'm also going to (try to) help Storme out with her Yuri's blastia. Hmmm electronics.
Been reading things about the sexual assaults at Dragon*Con. Do read all the comments. It sounds far too scary, yet I'm just shocked and not surprised. And then there was Pan's report on the serious overcrowding at FanExpo, to the extent that there are many reports on it and people are making youtube videos and arranging a boycott. If this continues, people will either stop going or go armed with pepper sprays and put up with overcrowding rather than go outside for fresh air. One can hope that these things will never happen over here, but it's only a matter of time, because my impression is that as events get larger, usually people don't wake up and do what's necessary until something goes horribly wrong. I wonder how much they spend on security at MCM Expo, for example, and if that security is mainly to protect the merchants and their profits, or if they're there to protect the attendees. I might be quite blind, because I don't remember seeing members of staff being easy to find...
