We're
sharing the convention hall with a bunch of marines. Don't ask me, I
don't know why there's servicemen sharing space with the anime con.
Anyway, they're trying our best to ignore us, but the cosplayers are
getting a lot of looks like 'this is freedom? this is what we fought
for?' It sorta came to a head, as far as I saw, when the lines for
something they were doing were across from the line for the cosplay
ball. I swore, there was about to be a punch or a slap-fight or
something, when this guy doing Guile from Street Fighter walks up. and I
mean, this guy WAS guile. He had the hair, he had the build,
everything. He walks up past the line of marines, and they salute him.
One even went as far as "Seargent Guile, SIR!"
The guy, who's
suddenly KING OF ALL NERDS EVERYWHERE, snaps off a perfect miltary
salute back and says "At Ease!" before heading to the back of the line.
I wish I hadn't used up all the shots on my crappy disposable camera, because that was amazing. |
