Once, I saw a Waldo cosplayer running by at full speed. After he passed, an L cosplayer went running by, pointing and shouting, "I FOUND HIM! I FOUND HIM!"

This thread is going to make me wish Otakon was sooner.

There was this cute Gurren Lagann group at a con I went to last year. They had Rossiu, Simon, Viral and Nia. The Nia was carrying around a batch of cupcakes and offering them to people who took their picture.

They looked really good, so I took one of the cupcakes and took a bite . . . . .
She'd made it taste like shit, just to be in character. I lol'd, and then threw up.

bump for lulz

That was clever of her. Gj Nia.

My sister and I were cosplaying as Bridget and May from Guilty Gear when we were at a con one year. We got stopped for a pictures and a big crowd gathered around and after it dissipated I saw Big Chris in his Mojo Jojo costume walking towards us.

Now, I didn't really know anything about any popular cosplayers at that point. I just knew that this guy looked big, scary, had a mean looking face and my sister and I were a little freaked out so we started to try to walk away. Suddenly his face just brightened up and he said in a voice I didn't think was going to come out of him "OH MY GOD a Bridget! You're so cute! OH MY GOD A MAY TOO! You two are so adorable! Can I take your picture?". My sister and I posed and he went on his way.

We laughed a lot about it later because he turned out to be such a nice and hilarious person. That's what we get for judging people by their appearances I suppose.

Once I wasn't in costume, I was helping a friend with her giant costume. We sat down to rest and this little girl who was around three or four just came up to us and starting twirling in her little frilly dress. She asked me if I wanted to play so I just danced along with her and she kept asking if my friend was a princess. Cutest thing she was, made me smile.

Moar?

Well I thought this was pretty funny.

here's one from Sakuracon.

it was Saturday and i was cosplaying Hatsune mikuo. as i was heading outside these girls cosplaying as what i thought was hetalia asked for my picture so i started to get into pose when Lofi ran behind the glass window and started giving me the finger. So i gave it back to him. after that he started bending back and we tried to out JoJo eachother till i was practically on the floor.

I got up and they took my picture and afterwards i headed back inside to laugh with him about it, and as i'm heading in I hear "So yea, that guy with the blue tattoos, that's lofi-guy, and the other guy-" and before the girl finishes her friend taps her on the shoulder and points to me standing right next to em. they all just stop talking as I look at them and one of em goes "Damn tripfaggers" and the all walked away.

I lol'd for quite a bit.

Friday at this year's Megacon, we shared the hall with a college graduation ceremony. A group of us were wrapping up a comic book shoot - I was Rorschach, natch.

As I get ready to go back to the dealer's room, I feel a playful tap on my shoulder; there is a young lady in her cap and gown, asking for a photo. Of course, I'll be happy to pose with her. Her family, obviously a bit lost, but completely enjoying the spectacle, pull out cameras.

A few snaps and I assume we're done, but suddenly, grandma takes me by the arm and ushers me a few paces away, wanting a photo just with her. I eventually get passed around to most the family members, plus we take a group shot.

Superman, Green Lantern, Batman... all the icons were there and all well done. Yet somewhere, this one family now has a graduation album full of photos of the tiniest hobo celebrating a milestone in their daughter's life.

That is so cute.

A similar story happened at Mega. I was walking by as Dante as some volleyball players were leaving. A couple of them came up to ask for a picture. Once I proved to be quite nice and not crazy as they seemed to assume more of them came up.... then more and then someone called a friend down the hall to bring more.

Somewhere there is a consecutive set of pictures with 2, then 5, then 8, then 12, then 16 girls holding my guns and smiling with the non-weird weirdo they found.

Ahaha, I JUST told someone this story, so here goes:

Katsucon 2009. I was Madam Red, and my friend was Grell, and we had gone all out, props, teeth, etc. We were sitting at a bus stop because her shoes were killing her. She had her chainsaw on her lap, and I was playing with my knife. For added lulz, our Suit!Lockon was ambling around in the background.

And this group of schoolkids, oh... fifth-graders, I'd say, comes out of the subway and they all freak out and quite literally hide behind their teacher, holding on to his arm and whimpering. Teacher thinks this is the BEST THING EVER, and comes over, we shake his hand and he asks what we were dressed up for, etc... We're really friendly and chatty and promise we're normal, honest, etc. The kids are still cowering behind him, trembling. They're TERRIFIED of Grell. And then she made the mistake of smiling really big, displaying all of her sharp, pointy teeth. (She used the nail method, so they legit looked like her teeth).

They seem a little less afraid of me, probably because they don't see my knife prop. But anyway, the teacher asks if he can have a picture of the class with us, and Lockon says she'll take it. The kids all herd on my side and behind their teacher, not wanting to get close to Grell at ALL.

And this one little boy pipes up, "I'M NOT SCARED!" And marched right up next to Grell with his hands on his hips. In the photo, I managed to sneakily raise my arm with the knife behind the kids- the kids didn't see. But it sure turned up in the photo!

As soon as they were done they all took off like shots. The three of us were loling the whole time on the bus back.

At a con recently, there was a large group of women in our hotel room, including our VERY convincing cross dressing friend "Amy". Three people who were actually staying in the room came in, one of them being male. He and says something along the lines of "I feel an extreme lack of testosterones in this room" and proceeded to walk up to "Amy" and say "I'm glad to know I'm not the only male in here right now!" and goes to shake her hand when she says "Pleasure to meet you!" in her real girly voice.


I'll probably think of more to post but that's a recent one and it's rather funny.
