Ten pics below the cut.

When fans get together, hilarity is sure to follow...



The message board was much smaller than the one at Lumos, but I managed to grab a couple gems:



Have you seen this kid? If so, please contact Aberforth at charming.goats@gmail.com.



WANTED: Snape Look-alike for erotic adventure/roleplay involving American witch. Have broom & cauldron - bring Snape attitude & nose sized matching "equipment." Apply - EVERYWHERE! but especially Queen & Crescent 4th floor!

At one of the panels I laughed when I sat down at the table and discovered this:

---

The Tolkien convention must have preceded ours.

---

Non-Greasy Hair Elixir: The Official Shampoo of Snapecast

---

From the Drunk Eaters party...may I present to you Snape's underpants, in all their glory.

Details from the C.R.A.P. table (an organization for protecting dragons):





And a gnome:

How julian_black and I got through PR intact...



...café au lait and a beignet.

I want a beignet right now, in the worst possible way. And a café au lait. And an oyster po'boy with extra mayo. And an order of Tasso Shrimp Henican, and maybe some Oysters Delachaise. And some more figgy goose goo wrapped in bacon. And...and...and...

Instead I'm eating a salad made from random things found in my fridge that didn't go bad while I was gone. ZOMG LIFE IS SO NOT WORTH LIVING ANYMORE.

FIGGY GOOSE GOO ROCKS.

If I can't have FGG then I might as well wither away into nothingness. Srsly.

*sends virtual hug of consolation*

I'm craving a strawberry snortcake in the worst way.

I'm looking at Expedia right now, trying to figure out the best/cheapest time to go back.

I'm so insane.

[valis2.livejournal.com]

I'm going to crawl in your carry-on and go with you.

[seaislewitch.livejournal.com]

YUCK! I need to unsee those underpants!

I remember meeting Julian Black from Lumos!

Oh, what is that on the pad of paper?

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Sorry to have scarred you for life with those underpants.

It's an origami crane, btw. ;) Like Draco's crane from GoF movie.

...café au lait and a beignet.

What, no hearty and nourishing squidaccino? I am SO disappointed!

[valis2.livejournal.com]

We never got around to drinking any squiddiccino! I'm so bummed.

[julian-black.livejournal.com]

Oooh! We could have made a Squid po'boy. Why didn't I think of that sooner?

[valis2.livejournal.com]

That would have been hilarious! Or a Hedwig au lait.

[julian-black.livejournal.com]

The only Starbucks around was in the hotel lobby--and it closed at 5:00.

We could have taken the Squid over to Café du Monde, but he would have ended up sticky with powdered sugar from the beignets.

I have to tell you these posts are making my day. Thank you so much- I am sooo envious! :D

[valis2.livejournal.com]

hee! Glad you enjoyed...I hope you can get to one! They're so much fun.

[gina-r-snape.livejournal.com]

OMG, that Aberforth sign is hysterical.

[valis2.livejournal.com]

You should see the business card! It's the same pic, and on the front it says, "Got Goat?"

*is in pain wishing I could have been there*

You rock my socks, nay, my entire outfit with your posts!


And to think, I touched that squid... :-D


THANK YOU! for all of the vicarious enjoyment.

[valis2.livejournal.com]

There will be more sock-removing action soon enough! I plan to post summaries as well. woo-hoo!

I totally missed your fun and charming presence. There's always the next con!

[lewlinx.livejournal.com]

Snapes unmentionables should remain that, unmentionables!!! eeewwww! LOL

Is that an origami animal on the pad? that's awesome!

Cafe au lait is a must at any convention...ALWAYS

Elfvators...OK, I'm a total geek bc I do find this funny :P LOL

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's an origami crane. Like the Draco crane from GoF! ha! Fans are awesome.

I'm still giggling about elfvators.

*lurves*

[unsymbolic.livejournal.com]

OMG so much love for elfvators!!!! I totally missed that! Guess I must have failed my observation check. :p

Do you mind if I gack that image and make an icon out of it? (Will credit you, of course.) It's just screaming to become an in-joke PR icon-- every fandom gathering needs a good in-joke icon....

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Do whatever you like with it. *hugs* ;)
