I had a great weekend! Tati and I went to the Mantova Comics convention, a tradition of ours. She went as genderbent Dean Winchester, I went as myself because I stopped working on my cosplay when I thought I couldn't go anymore because of the tooth. Next time, definitely. ;) We had a wonderful time, took a lot of pictures of brilliant cosplayers, talked to a lot of great persons, bought some wonderful things, and even attended the last half an hour of a concert.



A picture we all agreed deserved the front page. It's Sherlock and John making out while Tumblr exults. I love cosplayers. :D


This wonderful woman was dressed as Yzma from Emperor's New Groove, which is one of my favourite movies ever. She told me her daughter had talked her into doing this cosplay, and she had never done anything like it before. I showered with compliments, although to be fair I wasn't alone: there was a line of people waiting to take a picture with her! *___________*


Tati cosplaying Female!Dean in front of the local Roadhouse. Season 2 feelings! ♥


Three Gandalfs telling everyone they couldn't pass. The mop is there because they had a plastic sign that said "wet floor, don't walk". It was hilarious! They stopped the whole crowd while taking pictures, and when they finished one of them shouted "now you shall all pass!!!". It was the funniest traffic jam I had ever been in. :D


Sherlock and John from before. They were perfect, and look at the props!


Party King Thranduil of gingerhaze's fame! :D


Shingeki no Kyojin cosplayers! They're awesome! \o/


Perfect Fang is perfect. *_____________*


And now for what I bought! Drumroll, please. It's a Shingeki no Kyojin jumper with the wings of freedom insignia (and it's super soft and warm), and Bilbo's very own Sting. It's real metal, it weighs a lot, and it's the real size, which prompted Tati and me into a chorus of "Hobbits are SO small" and cooing sounds. ♥


And of course, food, because it's me we're talking about. :D

While at the convention we saw some people playing Just Dance 2014, and I fell in love with it. I bought Just Dance 4 yesterday (I'll buy the 2014 one from Amazon, it's cheaper there), and spent the whole afternoon dancing around. Today my muscles feel all sore in that wonderful way they do after a good hour at the gym. Also, it turns out I got the moves, who knew? :D

Pungolooooo ** E i Pocky, mannaggia a me, i cibi giapponesi sono sempre una tentazione.

E adesso ho capito che faceva il mio collega a Mantova questo weekend XD

Oooooohh my gosh, I LOVE the Sherlock & John cosplayers!!! What a great event, it looks like you´d a blast! And Tati´s cosplay is also very, very cool!!! <3

You said a while ago you´ve read a lot of different Sherlock/John (also slash?!) fanfictions... at the moment I´m reading "Performance in a leading role" (do you know the story?) And I was wondering if you could recomment me some good FFs... I fall totally in love with the characters (again) and I would love to have more (good!) stories about them. It doesn´t matter if slash or not, AU or not... just... do you have a few for me?! *__*

Heee, ma che bei cosplay!!! E che carina Tati in versione fem!Dean! Sono contenta che vi siate divertite. ^^

So che questo weekend andate a Cartoomics. Speravo di poter venire anch'io perché l'adoro, ma purtroppo non sono riuscita a spostare un altro impegno che ho preso per sabato, quindi niente da fare, sigh. :(

Quando vieni a trovarmi, io e la mia belvetta ti sfidiamo a Just Dance 4 e Just Dance 2014: è il nostro gioco preferito con la wii (e la belvetta è bravissima, io un po' meno). Prima o poi organizziamo, vero? ^^

Oh, yay, I love your picture posts!:) This is so cool, I remember you and Tati going to an event like that last year - was it the same one? She was a lovely Castielle if I remember correctly? (Were you Whovian in some way or did I get muddled up?) Awesome choice this year, I'd love to see more pictures of her, I flailed a little at the Roadhouse picture, and the plaid, and I want to see if that's the samulet on her neck.*flails some more*

Oh! I wish you'd taken a picture of Tati with Sherlock and John! (Goodness, how cool were those ladies?!) No Sammy, sadly, but three quarters of OGAM?? I'd have died.:D

Very glad you had a good time and you look great.:)
