On 12 October 2017 Dear Elgar, I think you are too young to realise that humans are not as well adapted as we felines. They do not seem to have our ability to just let go and curl up and sleep. They mainly seem to sleep when it is dark. Poor things, I think it’s because their eyes are not as good as ours.You must be aware that if you want her to go on serving you let her have a good night’s sleep. I speak from experience. Purrs from Quintus.

13 Oct 2017 Dea-purr Quintus she says I is to say thank you for your email even though I felt you were tellings mes offs. Iz gets excited when zshe turns overs in bedz – I think she mights swant zto tickle my belly so I goes ands nuzzles her, somesztimes she pulls my next sto herz which makes me purrrrrrrrrrrrr lotz, butz Iz sdnont understands whys shes cross wiv me & like today at lightening ups inz the zskys wiv birdies teaszings mees she putz me out of her room nd shutsz door on me.

I is confoozd I just brought her a prezant of birdzy nd she pickd meez up nd putz me outz de door! I brought zit backs again but now shez stopped me comings in. Meow, 😦 I donts understands) Mew mew meow, moarghomew Elgar xx

On 13 October 2017 Dear Elgar, I was not trying to tell you off, more just trying to make you understand that humans are rather unlike us. I’m sorry yours was so misunderstanding of you. It is hard I know. For some reason mine get narky when I get on the table. They don’t seem to realise it seems natural to me. They will spray me with water. Can’t understand why. Purrrrs and a nose rub, from Quintus.

25th Nov 2017 Dear Elgar, I hope your human is feeling a bit better. My human has thought of her lots, she has told me about her. I understand you are bigger than me. How is that for you are still not much more than a kitten?Though you do seem quite adventurous, and an expert at hunting. They do not always seem to appreciate this. They do seem to have some funny ideas, mine seem to get cross when I get on the table. It is such a good place to see will is going on, and I can even see out of the window if I face that way. She sometimes sprays me with water which I think is unnecessary, unkind. Funny things humans. Purrrrrrs to you and my aunty Muffin, and Arya, Quintus

Dearapurrr Quintus I iz understanding yous – this one had a shock last nights (purr purr purr miaowwwwwwwwwww!! So funny) I had posted a toad through the slightly blocked cat flap (I has got Muffin to type – much faster & I am licking her ears) but my hooman didn’t know until she came to lock up last night. She was squealing (I don’t think it was with delight though 😦 ) as she had to pick it up & put it out of the flap – I was watching & it kepts leaping all over the place she got it onto the cat flap door but as she tried to put it out it jumped at her – she said some words I don’t hear very often – Muffs sez it’s shwairing – it took hooman over 5 mins to get toady out the hole! I waz giggling inside so much I fellz over n my legs were in the air!

Poor you being shqirted wiv water – not nice ats all! My hooman makes a noise like a snake which I knows is bad so I always try to gets as flats as possibles as snakes are naszty thhngs . sometimes I has to run away, but so far no sprayz wiz water. I got my hooman up today at 8am (so she sez) its waz urlier az dem birdiez wer teasing me so muches.

I is off to getz more birdz I thinks – I don’ts knows waz the problemz iz about it coming ins the house to be eats – after all my others foods are INDOORS – silly hooman! Purrs n no fleas (I don’t like havings that stuff on my neck but the bittings has stopped so I gez its a goods things reeelys) Speaks soon Elgar xx *purrrrrr*

On 27 Nov 2017

Miaowy greetings Uncle Quintus

I is finally able to get my paws on hooman’s computery thing. Thank you for your writings. My hooman has been very poorly mother says & I am supposed to be keeping her warm, buts this is difficults at times as she moves me off, or says “Feet” – I knows I is meant to sits on her feet as they get cold (I never has cold feets have you?) but they are bony & she wriggles so I need to pounce, then she gets cross with me.

I sometimes worry about this thing of my hooman getting cross. Yesterday she smacked my nose! I was not happy at all with this, and the only reason was I was trying to clean out her breakfast bowl before she had finished – I don’t think I was unreasonable as she had taken HOURS to eat it…

Last night Aunty Muffin boxed my ears – I was just supporting her in keeping our hooman warm, I can’t help it if I am a bit bigger than Aunty Muffin – she needs to let ME have some room so I can be comfy shouldn’t she?

Hooman have me a deep groom this morning – she has taken her time over it! I like them every other day – but at least I has had one now. I stretched out for her, but something happened & I forgots – I puts my teeth & claws into my hooman. She put the furminator away & left the bedroom where we was. I got lonely & I still wanted my belly tickled! Such unreasonable behaviour from her at the moment.

She is also very smelly now, & has a REALLY noisy thing that she uses which makes her look like a dragon smoking (I has heard of these mystical creatures – I would like to grow up & be a dragon I think, does you know how I grows up to be a dragon?) she also coughs really loudly at times – so much so I have fallen off her legs – how is I supposed to do my “job” as foot warmer if she kicks me off?

I is in a mess here I thinks. nothing is going the way it should be. I is not worshipped – although my hooman does get me excellent food I suppose. So far she hasn’t sprayed me with the wet stuff deliberately – how bad is your hooman!?! That’s such an insult (unless you wanted some water – we does not have a table as far as I knows.

Right I has better sends this to yous before she comes back from the little room. Aunty Muffin is now sitting where I WANT TO SIT. It is just NOT FAIR! I is the biggest, bestest & only boy cat – surely they should treats me the bests? I is still only a baby in age.

I found a small squeaky thing outside – but it had a pointed nose – my hooman says its a shrew – & that it wouldn’t make good eatings – she knows about stuff like that so I left it on the mat in the kitchen for her. She didn’t say thank you. it’s all too confoosing for me.

Am I at the worst home ever?

sadly love Elgar xXx

28th Nove 2017 Purrrs Elgar, That was a good piece you sent. I will try to answer your questions First I don’t think your home is bad. There are many worse I understand, where you are not fed well and can be shut out when you want to go in. Humans are funny strange animals. They do odd things like getting wet all over in a thing called a bath, but seem to be almost afraid of rain. I don’t like rain much myself but it is natural.

My human tortured me the other day and said it was for my own good. First I was wound up in a towel, and held by the other human in my house, but I got free, cos I’m strong, but it was no use for the door and window was shut so they got me again. So undignified, I think I deserve more respect. Some fur was cut on my neck and some horrible stinging stuff put on. I got out as soon as the window was opened after I had given her a killing look, and almost decided not to go back but I got hungry.

I am training her, I just look at the food in my dish but I will only eat it if she adds some of my treats, this way I get a few extra, which is good. She says I will get too fat and already looking fatter. It’s only my winter fur is thick, I don’t have to put on funny clothes and she puts on on lots if it is cold then SHE is fat. I guess your human is in a funny mood because she is not well. I would not leave until she is better, if she is still odd then you could visit me, I hope things improve soon. Purrrs , Quintus

On 29 November 2017 Dear Elgar,Your message was very kind, but really my humans are not really that bad, and I am still training them. I have always plenty of dry food available, and water to drink, though I prefer the water that is outside. I too get treats every evening, and have trained her to give me extra sometimes.

I don’t usually sleep on my humans bed, but do sometimes. I prefer to be where I can roam as she keeps her door shut at night. At the moment my favourite place is a chair half way up the stairs. I can keep an eye on what is happening, though this cold weather makes me sleepy. Today I only went out for short times.

I have not heard about this dreadful monster but maybe I will stay in, especially she says it will be freezing tonight. Even with my thick fur I can not like that much cold. I am glad your human is a bit better. I think you are all looking after her very nicely. Just remember not to wake her up. Many purrrrrs to you, Quintus.

2nd December 2017 Dear Elgar, You send very good letters. Thanks. Presents are things that you give or receive. The food you sent me was a present, sometimes to make things complicated it is called a gift. Humans seem to like having different words for the same thing. Very odd. I still have a little of your special food for it is given to r almost like a great, though more than a great. It sounds fun that you search for yours. Mine are put in a special little dish. The special ones for cleaning my teeth are put there too, but at a different time. Yes, it is too cold. I usually go out lots, but I suppose staying on my chair much of the time. I think I will go out and do, but come in again very soon. I am intrigued , what is a furminator? I think you must be cleaver to hold it. I have you are kind to warm your humans bed, but I guess it is a comfortable place for you too. My human has a cold but she thinks it is almost better, so maybe she will see you on Monday. Purrrr from Quintus, and to Aunty. Muffin and your mother too.

6th December 2017 Purrs Elgar, I am sorry your human is unhappy. I hope she is feeling better today. I nudged my human and she weighed me. She says I am 12lbs, but our scales are not as good as yours. We will try again. My last letter was a bit funny. Maybe the cold does not suit me! I know I have been indoors much more than usual. Fresh air is good for my thinking. (But not too cold).I hope Aunty Muffin is more happy . I s she sick too or just worried about your human. My human says yours has got pneumonia. Perhaps it’s called that because it makes them feel moany. Is yours moany or just sad? Please give Aunty Muffin a nose rub from me, and of course to you. Lots of purrs, Quintus

Oooh Elgar, what do you think of this white stuff they call snow? When I was a kitten I liked to play in it, but this morning I only stayed out briefly, It is still snowing and the trees look as if they are dressed in white, though I am going to curl up on my chair soon. A time called Christmas will be here soon I think. Maybe you will get a present then. I was given a funny mouse like thing but it was not alive, but it had a wonderful scent, which made me play with it as if it was alive. The humans have more things but I liked the paper and ribbon best, and there can be a useful box. They do odd things like put a tree inside and then hang things on it. I thought these were for playing with, but my human says NO! She was very cross when I tried to claim the . (But that was when I was a kitten). I still play with the hanging things when there is no-one there, though usually they shut the door. I don’t think you should try to climb the indoor tree if you have one as I think you would be too heavy for it. I look forward to hearing your you. Purrrrrrs to Aunty Muffin and your mother, and a nose rub to you. Quintus.

10th December 2017 Dear Uncle Quintus Thank yous got your letter. It is very cold outside isn’t it? Mother, Aunty Muffin & I stayed with our hooman for a Very long time – she didn’t go to sleep very early – not su/purrre why, but she’s kept us all up until about birdie time – but I waz on her lap downstairs whilst she was awake so I go so many cuddles that I ignored the birds & we all slept in until this afternoon. Hooman is cross with herself for not sleeping at what she thinks are the right times to sleep – I don’t understand this as any time is a good time for 40winks! I has been better behaved & have been rewarded for it – so until it becomes boring I will carry on – last night I was chasing treats all around her bedroom! The girls were boring on the bed eating their pile so delicately! Pooh girls are silly! I think it is much more fun to chase my bits of treats – sometimes I miss a bit & find it later!

Hooman wants to know how much of my special food you have left? She said something about presents – which I am confused about a bit – but I think you will get some for your present. I tried to help her do some drawing yesterday – but it seems my paws are just a bit too wide to hold a pencil – I can hold the furminator and it remove some loose fur around my face – I is very clever to do this – neither of the girls can do it! I’m off upstairs to preheat the bed – hee hee what she doesn’t see she can’t worry about! miaory purrs – Keep Warm Elgar XXX

Dear Elgar,

I think you are too young to realise that humans are not as well adapted as we felines. They do not seem to have our ability to just let go and curl up and sleep. They mainly seem to sleep when it is dark. Poor things, I think it’s because their eyes are not as good as ours.

You must be aware that if you want her to go on serving you let her have a good night’s sleep.

I speak from experience.

Purrs from Quintus

These are letters from Quintus son of Tinto, sister of Muffin. Q is the 5th kit in her litter. He chose to reply to a kitten called Elgar(son of Arya) who was very confused about Humans (hoomans). Their letters span several years 2017 - 2018 On 12 October 2017 Dear Elgar, I think you are too young to realise that humans are not as well adapted as we felines.

Logan's Summer-Pride Meetup Week 2

Fandom: Sanders Sides

Pairing: Platonic LAMP

Summary: Logan prepares to come out as trans publicly. With his friends by his side, he knows he can handle it.

Triggers: misgendering, dysphoria.

Word count: 712 words

(this was based more than loosely on my own experiences so it was surprisingly easy to write. Also I came out to someone in the middle of writing so I could write it into the story so please validate me)

Logan leaned his head against the window as Dodie played in his ear buds. He was headed back from a trip to the city with his mom and grandmother and an ugly thing from his brain had reared its head a couple hours before.

"Did you have fun, Lacey?" His mother asked. And there it was again. The sneering face of dysphoria flashed in his mind.

"Yeah." He said. Thankfully, his mom was used to Logan's introverted nature, and didn't read anything into his short answer besides exhaustion. She put a podcast on and chatted quietly with his grandmother, leaving Logan to let his mind wander in the back seat.

That was a bad choice. Ever since summer break started, he refused to let his thoughts go free for too long. Every time he did, his mind would go to the same place. He was coming out at school when sophomore year started, and he was anxious as hell about it.

So, he pulled out his phone, resorting to the one thing he knew would always distract him. His best friend.

Microsoft Nerd: It is back. I need you to help me make one decision about school, and then I need a distraction.

Perfect Prince: I'm free. Call?

Microsoft Nerd: I am in the car.

Perfect Prince: Ah. Gimme the question.

Microsoft Nerd: Should I email teachers or tell them on the first day?

Microsoft Nerd: Should I tell the principal?

Microsoft Nerd: Do you think the administration could get my name changed on the roster?

Perfect Prince: Slow down there, L. You said one decision.

Microsoft Nerd: I apologize. I have been alone with my thoughts too long.

Perfect Prince: let's start with your second question.

Perfect Prince: Mr. Sanders adores you.

Perfect Prince: He'd honestly be offended if you didn't tell him personally.

Perfect Prince: If you can deal with face-to-face, here's my advice.

Perfect Prince: Go to the first day of school. You're an awesome judge of character. Figure out who you can tell that day. The rest, email.

Perfect Prince: Third...

Perfect Prince: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Perfect Prince: ask Mr. Sanders after you tell him.

Microsoft Nerd: Thank you. Shockingly, you had a smart idea.

Perfect Prince: STFU

Perfect Prince: anyway!

Microsoft Nerd: proceed

Perfect Prince: I listened to Beetlejuice last night and it was actually like

Perfect Prince: Lit

Perfect Prince: I mean I'm a Hadestown stan first and a human second

Perfect Prince: But!

Logan leaned forward, resting his head against the back of the driver's seat, grin on his face. He wasn't an emotional person at all, but Roman's distractions always made him smile.

He turned his Spotify to the Beetlejuice soundtrack at Roman's request and watched Roman's rant turn to Hadestown again. It always turned to Hadestown nowadays. He glanced up at the sky and saw the full moon shining down on him. Everything would be ok.

~~~

Logan stepped out of the shower and immediately tripped over his clothes. It was his own fault for showering with the lights off, but it was the only way he could convince himself to even take a shower.

As he sat against the tub, rubbing his now sore nose, his phone screen lit up from the counter. He groaned and got up. As he limped to the counter, he realized how hard the fall actually was. He groaned again when he read the text.

Stormcloud: Hey Lacey. Is there any chance I can borrow your copy of Lord of the Flies? I didn't realize how close the test was.

Virgil was a casual friend. The two had bonded after being seated next to each other in freshman advanced English. Then they had bonded even more during their debates while the class was reading Romeo and Juliet.

Logan had never come out to him. He could. He definitely could. Virgil's older brother was trans. It was just never something that crossed his mind during their conversations. He started typing.

Microsoft Nerd: Yes. We can arrange a time for you to get the book. As I have adequately prepared for the test, you can take the book at any time.

Microsoft Nerd: Also, it's Logan now.

Stormcloud: huh?

Microsoft Nerd: My name. It's Logan now.

Stormcloud: oh

Stormcloud: pronouns?

Microsoft Nerd: He/Him

Stormcloud: coolio

Stormcloud: I can swing by your house tomorrow around 1. That chill?

Microsoft Nerd: affirmative.

Logan hugged his phone to his chest. Virgil had accepted the new information with ease. He felt the pressure on his chest lighten, dysphoria slinking back to its tiny corner of his brain.

Amusing. He had discovered a new way to battle it. He switched over to his group chat.

Microsoft Nerd: I came out to Virgil

He finally got dressed while he was waiting for a response, putting on his baggiest hoodie, which Patton had affectionately named "the blob hoodie," and his favorite pair of pajama pants. He finally turned on his light and was able to look in the mirror while he washed his face.

His phone blew up with texts. Emoji spams from Patton and a couple happy texts from Roman. Logan proceeded to stay up way too late, texting his friends, a little firework of happiness exploding in his heart every time he got called by his name. Roman had known for three years at this point, and Patton for nearly two, but Logan's euphoria at being referred to by his chosen name felt the same as it first had.

~~~

Logan sat cross-legged on Roman's bed, laptop in front of him. He had spent a month stressing over this, and had finally decided to just email all his teachers before school started.

He looked around the room. Roman was pacing around his room, flapping his hands as intensely as he would do right before a show. Virgil leaned against the bed in front of Logan, alternating between scrolling through Tumblr and taking sneaky photos of Roman. Patton sat next to Logan, holding one of his hands.

He took a deep breath. "Okay. I have been drafting this email for two weeks. All three of you have proofread it multiple times. School starts in two days. It's time."

He glanced over at Patton, who gave him a soft smile and a reassuring hand squeeze. He took another breath and reached his free hand onto the mousepad.

Click.

Logan's head was a tangle of emotions. Euphoria, anxiety, a touch of bitterness. What Logan felt the most, though, was his best friend initiating a cuddle pile on top of him, and a surprising warmness at all of his friends. That was when he knew, that no matter what happened, no matter how any of the teachers reacted, no matter how any of the students reacted, he knew that his three closest friends had his back, and that was the only thing that mattered.

DokiDokiCon III + The Fic of Destiny

"Welcome to the annual Otaku Festival of Daten City- DokiDokiCon! This will be our third year running, and boy is it another wonderful sight to see!" The reporter chirped as she walked down the halls of the convention center, "Despite the terrible events of the previous two years, the convention is still going strong! I'm sure they feel safe because our very own Daten Celebrities have attended- maybe some people are coming just to see them in action!"

The truth was, the Angels had been asked to attend by the convention's very own curator. Due to his terrible luck with ghost attacks every year, he bribed the Angels with free tickets and merchandise if they attended- even going as far as to offer Hollywood-tier costume artists to make their cosplays. Needless to say, Strappon couldn't refuse the offer lest he be hated forever by the resident Anime Enthusiasts. The most pressing matter, of course, was the note that had been slid into his DMs by God: "Story..." Strappon whispered to himself, "What kind of story? Romance? Suspense? God, I wish You would give us more than one word..."

"It's aight, I'm sure we'll be good knowing what we know." Blazer waved their hand dismissively. Their costume had already been made prior in anticipation of the event months in advance, so they were just there for moral support, so they say. "I really hope it's not another 'inconvenient super power' ghost..." Duster sighed. Everyone likely felt this way, considering the circumstances last time in addition to the debacle at the hotsprings. --- Just as Angels surely got their note, so did Demons. Even those who had moved to the Abbey for amnesty got the email for their glorious, murderous Supreme Absolute. "Lost Soul sighted at or near the Convention Center in the center of Daten. Those not attending will be culled. We see all. We know all. Do not disobey." Talk about creepy.

The air around the convention was filled with excitement and merriment a s thousands of attendees piled in, with plenty more waiting in line to g et their bags and badges checked on the way in. The Angels were lead in with their VIP badges, caught up in the energy o f the convention scene- especially with their fancy costumes.

BRIT: Strappon walked in behind Blazer and Duster, attempting not to get swa mped by the fans of their professional-looking Zelda cosplays. "Remember, we do have a mission to follow-up on..." He said, trying no t to say it too loud so as to ruin the fun they were obviously about t o have. "Relax, Strap. We got this." Blazer said as they posed with their swor d for a photo. There was a hairflip for emphasis.

KURP: Luna followed up behind the group, holding a poor cramped up Sukajan w ho was still recovering from his failed Kinjaz routines. Now he truly misses his cybernetic body, he played himself. Out from behind them popped in Hot Pants who was rather excitable to b e walking around as Toon Link. He was mostly excited to make faces whi le taking pictures if anything. In some other nondescript area of the con, there was a Bayonetta cospl ayer who was in obvious emotional distress, their makeup constantly be ing cleaned off their face and reapplied by a lovely Jeanne cosplayer. There was a small pig accompanying the pair.

COFFIN: Dzilla followed close behind the group, stopping to take pictures. The giant woman cosplayed the giant woman, Opal. On her shoulder was an e xtremely excited Mary Janes. The bean of a boy was dressed up as Sapp hire. Foxstole was chilling, sipping a cappuccino in her Tracer cosplay.

SAIYAN: Undershirt arrived wearing the same damn cosplay outfit that he'd worn the last two times because he's unoriginal, along with Wristband and Tuxedo Jacket. TJ didn't really want to get into the whole dressing up aspect so he wore his usual outfit. Wristband decided to go as Videl, having her hair styled into two magenta pigtails. The three of them r an into Blazer and their little group. "Oh, hey guys, nice choices of cosplay!" he said to Blazer and the res t. Meanwhile on the other side of the convention, Bowtie was there, dress ed as Azula from the best anime //shot. She accompanied the Bayo and Jeanne cosplayers in their struggle with makeup. "Are you two good there?" she asked them.

OMEGA: Boxer was cosplaying as Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star, he was s o excited to come to Doki Doki Con! "This is so awesome!" Boxer said a s he was ready was the Con. Raincoat was cosplaying as Aqua from Kingdom Hearts, she had worked ve ry hard on the costume along with the Keyblade too. "I get to finally try out my Aqua Costume." Raincoat said with a smile on her face as sh e looked at Boxer. Emperor Crown was cosplaying as Gilgamesh from Fate Series and Father Crucifix was cosplaying as Dracula from Castlevania Series. These two were focus to cosplay by Raincoat and Boxer. "Well, at least this cost ume doesn't ruin my looks." Emperor Crown chuckles a little with a smi rk on his face. "I will never until kids and their cosplaying..." Fath er Crucifix sighs as he follows Boxer and Raincoat.

HITA: Skipping and jumping and twirling into the entryway, Brooch managed to somehow get over to where Mister Strappon was standing. Regardless o f how fun it was to dress up as the character Lana from Hyrule Warrior s, she at least took her job seriously. She squinted out at the crowd s, eyes darting around to assess what all was happening. "I just hope we don't wreck the center. My cousin said her boyfriend has had to fix it every year since the Con started." She glanced arou nd again, hoping to spy others she knew. She spotted the blue man, Mi ster Undershirt, and was happy when they made their way over. Almost. She squinted at the Tux Man and had a thought, digging into her bag and pulling out a domino mask, top hat, and cape. "Wear them." She shoved them straight at Tuxedo Jacket. "Wear them n ow, you can't not cosplay!! Be Tuxedo Mask!!" She was definitely not shoving her magical girl agenda, no. On the other end of the Con center, a tall person was dressed as an ex ceptional rendition of the Fierce Deity from Legend of Zelda. Meander ing through the halls, VF, the Fierce Deity in question, hummed in its doubled voice in amusement at the way people were reacting to various cosplayers. Humans were so silly, really.

KURP: "No, we're not good, my kid was taken for crying out loud!" Replied th e Bayonetta cosplayer, who was actually Hairpin. "At least my photo shoots are coming out amazing..."

OMEGA: "I don't know why we have to wear this Brother!" Tank Top said as he w as cosplaying as Hikaru from Ouran High School. "You just have to wear this today, Brother." Dress Shirt said as he was cosplaying as Kaoru from Ouran High School. "But couldn't you find any better costumes..." Tank Top mutter as he didn't like this costume. "These were the only twin costumes i could find. Besides, you look cute in that costume." D ress Shirt chuckles as he looks at his Brother. "W-Whatever." Tank Top said as he blushes a little from that.

SAIYAN: Tuxedo Jacket was taken aback by Brooches' sudden appearance as he was quickly handed a mask and a cape. Normally he would have said no, but with items he was handed it was better to just accept it. "UGH! Fine!" he groaned as he put the items on. "How do I look?" he asked. Meanwhile, Bowtie frowned a bit at HP's response. Poor guy, he was goi ng through a lot. "Oh yeah, I kinda forgot about all that. At least you have the picture s!" Bowtie said before leaning in a bit. "Is there anyway I can make this better?" she asked HP.

KURP: "Yeah, if you got my kid back! We still haven't gotten any leads and t his is honestly upsetting," he said, wiping away the makeup that had j ust been reapplied to his face. His husband had his work cut out for h im, honestly.

BRIT: "Thanks." Blazer said nonchalantly in reply to Undershirt, "I see you' re using the same costume as you usually do. You're well-known for it anyway, so there's no reason to diss your lack of originality." "Blazer, please..." Duster muttered. He adjusted the hat to his Vaati cosplay before being asked for another picture and meandering off. He took Hot Pants' hand so they could pose together. Amulet, dressed as Jeanne, handed his husband another tissue. He was g lad they were using magic for some of the makeup, and that his costume was made of premium red vinyl, otherwise this would be messy for both of them. "Honey, we'll find him. Just... Try to enjoy the convention a little." He said.

COFFIN: A black hearse rolled up to the entrance. Vampire Collar stepped out f irst as Thorn. Assless Chaps soon followed as Dusk. Lastly, Jong stepp ed out as Luna. The Hex boys had made it to DDC. They made their way t o the group with a trail of Scooby Doo fans close behind. Mary Janes just climes on Dzilla. Dzilla turned and waved to Foxstole. Fox yawned,"Ciao D. Nice cosplay, never pegged you as the type." Dzilla shrugged and tossed Mary in the air. "Do not judge by covers Fo x. " She caught the giggling boy as she completed the sentence. Virgin Killer nyoomed down the street on her Harley. She stepped off a nd took off her helmet. She gave Diadem a kiss on the forehead. The tw o had gone as Dexter and DeeDee. "You look so cuttte~!" Virgin squeale d.

KURP: "How can I enjoy it knowing my baby boy isn't in my arms!" At this point Hairpin was getting somewhat hysterical, but he did try to calm himself down, blowing his nose in the tissue hand to him. "Fine, but. No promises," he said. Archer gloves literally arrived a few minutes later with some starbuck s, in full-blown Revali cosplay, catching up with Strappon's group. He wasn't really appreciative but how could he deny Luna after being sho wn the kid dressed as Zelda. "Should we move around? I'm interested in seeing what this 'artist all ey' is all about."

OSCAR: Gloves and Sapphire followed the group, and was taken few pictures by other cosplayers. Gloves was cosplay as Lucario and Sapphire was cospl ay as Shalour Gym, Korrina. They don't mind getting pictures by other cosplayers. They like it. Meanwhile on the other side of the convention, Dress Socks and G-Strin gs was there, getting pictures by other cosplayers as well. Dress Sock s cosplaying as Soul from Soul eater and G-Strings was cosplaying as M aka from soul eater. Both of them are in their human disguises and des pite Dress Socks hate being in one since it makes him itchy, he don't want to attract the wrong crowed. So he brought himself some lotion fo r himself from home and apply to his skin so it won't itch that much. Overall, they're with the other side with the demons, hellbents, and i nquisitors.

SOUP KITTY: Jong had a smile plastered on his face. He was clearly enjoying himsel f and all the attention they were getting. It reminded him of his burl esque days. He reached for Vampire Collar's hand and took hold of it. He was hyped. Near the entrance, there was a rather peculiar Sucy Manbavaran, who wa s really just Pointe. What made her so peculiar was the giant glowing blue sword strapped to her back. She somehow managed to get the sword past security under the excuse that if you look really closely, it was clearly lined with pixels. whatever that meant. She was taking pictur es with other Little Witch Academia cosplayers, and handing them 20% o ff coupons to an actual real actually legit witch shop. Diadem smiled sheepishly at Virg's comments. "So do you. We should mee t up with the others now." He was a bit nervous to be out and about, b ut he had been convinced to go. He held on to Virgin's arm.

OMEGA: "Jong! Vampire Collar! Over here you guys!" Boxer called out to them a s he waved his arm in the air to get their attention. Raincoat was with Boxer excited for the Con. Father Crucifix and Emperor Crown were getting a lot of people to come up to them and take picture of them in their costume.

KURP: "Boxer, dear!" A rather sultry voice came from behind him and suddenly the imposing f igure of Asmodeus had his grubby little hands all over Boxer. "So who are you supposed to be, huh? Some big tough guy from some post -apocalyptic universe or something?

OMEGA: "I am Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star, it is a very classic anime ." Boxer answered Asmodeus the Demon Lord of Lust.

RYAN: Pauldron slowly moved through the crowd, dressed as Kaneli from Zelda, looking very confused as he looked for his Revali. A blushing mess, h is ease disappearing the second he posed for photos. Thigh High was currently using him as a human shield to slowly push th rough the people. Dressed as our Lord and saviour Sonic the Hedgehog i n her own homemade suit, she was having the time of her life. “For someone so nervous, you’re fitting in rather well.” She mused at the old man. “I used to attract crowds like this all the time when I was younger.” He pointed out as he turned to look down at the angel. “But it has been quite some time since I’ve been treated like this…” P auldron confessed as he tried to black out that one time when everyone called him a bear on Twitter.

COFFIN: Vampire Collar held Jong's hand and kissed him. He snaked his arm arou nd Jong's waist and he smiled. Assless Chaps moved his arm around Jong too and he smirked, walking to the group with them. "We look absolutely wonderful." Virgin Killer took Diadem's arm and walks with him. "Of course babes. C'mon let loose!" She giggled. "We look bomb."

SAIYAN: Bowtie patted the poor man in the shoulder. He was really torn up abou t this, and rightfully so. But she smiled when he took up her offer. "I'll help you take your mind off of it for a bit, don't worry." She c onsoled him. Meanwhile, Undershirt turned to Blazer with an eyeroll. "Thanks for the backhanded compliment, totally makes me feel better" h e said to him. While Undershirt was talking, Wristband noticed that Asmo had made an appearance. Without saying anything, she walked away from the group an d wandered to his side. She silently placed a hand on his shoulder. "Don't think about slinking away anywhere, I'm gonna be watching you l ike a hawk. So no funny business, okay?" she asked him.

FUJOSHI: Somewhere in the midst of the chatter, a small, chubby girl was wander ing and weaving between all the cosplayers with hearts in her eyes. Sh e was so mystified- everyone was so real! "Oh, this is so much like I've dreamed! So many kawaii Anime character s surrounding me- I could just write a fanfiction right now!" She sque eled, "But I don't know what to do, yet! I should find some muse with them..." Fujoshi wandered further into the crowd to find some pretty damn profe ssional cosplays. She stood back and sat down to watch them talking to each other from a distance.

SOUP KITTY: Jong gave a little wave to boxer with his free hand, then nodded with respect to Asmodeus. Pointe noticed the group Jong was in, and immediately gravitated over there. She was now walking beside them. She was bodyguard Sucy Manbava ran. Diadem smiled and nodded, as they caught up with their squad. He point ed at Boxer, and then made the throat cutting sign while mouthing "If you hurt him you're a dead man."

KURP: "I would say that's a little too old school for me, but I am partial t o the JoJo series myself," Asmodeus admitted. "How about we try and have a nice time today. After all, we're technic ally still /boyfriends/." His fun was immediately interrupted by the sudden appearance of Wristb and. Oh bother, what does she want. He rolled his eyes as she spoke, a lmost shooing her away. "Listen, the worst I'll do is go fuck someone behind the con or someth ing. This is a good opportunity for me to feed. I won't kill anyone, I promise." "What do you have in mind?" Hairpin asked. He would be lying if he sai d he wasn't curious. Archer looked around as his group began chattering among themselves, t rying to figure out what venue to hit first when he spotted what seeme d to be Pauldron. He waved enthusiastically, hoping to get the attenti on of the man.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: Meanwhile, just outside the Con, Ruka was on his knees, weeping over h is ruined Doomguy cosplay with Flat Cap and Vest in their costumes wat ching over him. "Nice going, Helmet. Ya ruined his costume with your m eat juices. Now we gotta get him a new one." Flat Cap said to Helmet, who was rather stupid in his ham costume.

OMEGA: Boxer was surprise that Asmodeus like Jojo, he thought that he would l ike Yuri on Ice or Ecchi Anime. But he was getting nervous by Asmodeus trying to seduce him? Is that it? Well the boy had to get out of ther e. "Actually Asmodeus, me and Boxer were going to check out the Art and Anime Figures they have." Raincoat said as he grabs Boxer to her side. "And i think a demon like you wouldn't be interest in that." She said as she had found a way to save Boxer. "Brother Pauldron! It's good to see you here!" Father Crucifix said as he walked over to Pauldron with a smile showing his fangs. Emperor Crown was taking more Pictures with Fans of the Fate Series.

SAIYAN: It was Wristband's turn to roll her eyes this time, as Asmo tried to d ownplay her concerns. "That's exactly what I'm concerned about. That's why I'm keeping you i n my sights for the rest of the con" Wristband said sternly.

OSCAR: While walking around in the con, Gloves and Sapphire was enjoying gett ing pictures by other cosplayers. Especially for Sapphire, this is her first time for her to be in the convention and having the time of her life. Plus, she can rollerblade around at the convention. Gloves was also having fun, not only he's in his second favorite cosplay as Lucar io, but getting hugs by young and old people, with permission of cours e. While enjoying, they spotted Archer Gloves from afar and approach him with smile on their faces. He can't see Gloves smile since he's we aring a mask, but he's smiling. "Hey, Archer!" Gloves said, waving to him. "Nice cosplay you got on." Sapphire was next to him and she's waving as well. Meanwhile, Dress Socks and G-Strings are walking around in the crowed of cosplayers at the sight to find the Lost Soul. Yet, nice and kind k ids walk over to them and ask if they could have a picture with them. They look at each other and look back at the kids with the kids. Might as well have fun first while finding the Lost Soul. After all, it's t heir first time being here. While taking picture, they all made a cool pose and say the line, "Sou l Residence!"

EMI: Finally making his way through the line, Trenchcoat, dressed as Joker from Persona 5, made is way through the crowds of con-goers while star ing at his pamphlet, walking passed the giant lion-like statue that wa s also surrounded by a crowd. There were so many damn people here and he was starting to get irritated. Meanwhile, Mong was enjoying his freedom from Hell, and his freedom fr om clothes since he was cosplaying a strange orange-haired version of Felicia from Darkstalkers. Man he loved being mostly naked.

RYAN: Pauldron visibly cringed when he heard many onlookers praise his outfi t, too many mentioning d*ddy under their breathe. “You know if you went as Kass, Cheeky could have lent you his accordio n.” Thigh High remarked as she leaned on his back, completely obscured by the sheer size of this lad. “I do not know where this instrument has been, so I do not wish to tou ch it. Much less, carry it around for a whole day!” He laughed through his teeth so he could continue to pose for photos. A hand waving in h is peripheral caused him to turn his head. Immediately he began to try to walk towards Archer Gloves only to blocked off by more admirers. P auldron let out a sigh and was about to give up on his pursuit when hi s companion came to his rescue. Coming to stand in front of him, Thigh High raised her arms and simply announced, “Move, I’m gay!” “Thigh High, that’s not exactly… helpful?” He began to whisper before being astonished as the crowd parted before her, not unlike that one b iblical scene. “Never underestimate the raw power of our Lord and saviour!” Thigh Hig h scoffed at the non-believer as she tugged him towards the man of int erest.

HITA: Humming the Zelda theme to herself, Brooch began to wander off, her ha ir still moving as if sentient when people came too close. She was al l too happy to pose for pictures, striking poses gleefully. Her atten tion was snatched by an exceptional Sonic and it made her sad she didn 't have her Tails costume. She basically nyoomed to Thigh High, clapp ing happily at seeing the outfit. "You make me wish I had my Tails outfit and that Visor was here as Knu ckles!! It'd be great!" So excited she was, she didn't notice her ha ir lifting like it was in a Ghibli movie. VF finally spotted people it knew, heading to the grouping of Bowtie, HP, and Amulet. While it didn't much care for this sector and it foun d the absolute to be a few plastic monkeys short of a full barrel, HP would have made the South-West proud. It slid a notepad out of its cl othes, eyebrows furrowing and mouth pulling into a frown at the conver sation that had been going on. 'Has there been any updates? Your girl-child keeps pestering it for s ome reason to aid in the search.' Its fingers twitched and it wrote a further note to the group. 'If It can assist, It will do so.'

YARANAIKA: This was the best convention she'd ever seen! Hearts in her eyes, Yar anaika's expert outfitting skills had hidden was she really looked lik e. Yes, she still had a bit of a give away but give her a break!! Sa ilor Scout ensemble set, she wandered through the halls, hoping for th e best of the best to inspire her. If only she could find someone who loved the animes as much as she did ! If only she could find a partner to bring the most sugoi of love st ories to life in this place! With this in mind, the disguised ghost became a bit lost in thought as she prepared for the story to unfold.

COFFIN: Vampire Collar yoinked Jong away from Boxer, dipping him into a kiss. Assless Chaps shook his head and he crossed his arms. "Annnd there the y go." Virgin Killer looked at Asmodeus and gave him the Chancla eyes. She ch illed and took pictures with Diadem. Fox sat on Dzilla's shoulder and Mary Janes gave her a high five. Mary looked on at the crouds. "Look at allll these chickens!"

KURP: "Now, now dear," Asmodeus said to Diadem, "I can take care of myself. I can take rejection, at least." No, he honestly couldn't. He was sensitive. He smiled deviously as Raincoat spoke, wrapping an arm of his with Box er's, "Actually, considering I hang around many enthusiasts, I acquire d quite the taste for Japanese related animation so I'd be interested in coming along with you two. Well, specifically Boxer." He huffed at Wristband, once again, gesturing her to leave. "Listen, I prefer some privacy when I'm in the act. At least respect that." Archer quirked a brow as he was approached by Gloves and Sapphire, wav ing a bit at them. "Uh..Who are you?" He asked. He never seen these people in his life, a s if he could see who was under what he assumed to be a fursuit. Furri es do not interact. His attention was refocused on Pauldron who was inching closer. Taking deep breaths, he also approached Pauldron, looking up to the large ma n. God, he just knows he's got a big dick, he just knows it. "I see Lady Luna made a good call, huh? You look rather dapper in that outfit." Hairpin took the note he was handed and looked up to VF, shaking his h ead, "No. Nobody's seen those 'Flies' anywhere since they took Armlet. Hopefully we get new leads soon...Maybe you could speak to Sash? I kn ow the two of you were kind of close."

SOUP KITTY: Jong's eyes widened at suddenly being dipped, but he eventually just c losed his eyes and let it happen. Pointe had separated from the group and was reading through some magic al girl mangas somewhere, clearly starry-eyed because of the chapter s he was on. Diadem pat Asmodeus on the back. "Still, cant hurt to have back up, ri ght?" The boy smiled at his grandad, before adjusting his glasses, whi ch admittedly were is /actual/ glasses and not just ones for the cospl ay. He went back to taking pictures with Virg.

SAIYAN: Wristband laughed a bit at Asmo trying to get out of this situation. A s if there was any chance that she'd leave him alone for any amount of time. "Well that's too bad buddy, I don't want people being sucked dry and d ying on my watch" Wristband replied.

OMEGA: "Fine..." Raincoat sigh as she took Boxer and Asmodeus to look at Anim e Figures and Art. "Mother, save me." Boxer thought to himself as he thought Asmodeus wou ld live him alone. Emperor Crown was starting to love the Pictures. Meanwhile the Brothers were searching for the Lost Soul. "Where could that Lost Soul be?" Dress Shirt ask himself as he looked around with h is Brother. Tank Top was eating some cookies that he bought but was ge tting some crumbs on his face. Then Dress Short got a idea going over to his Brother and licking the crumbs off his face. The plan was to lu re out the Lost Soul with the power of Yaoi and Brotherly Love! Though Ouran High School Fans were storming at the twins!

COFFIN: Vampire Collar slowly tilted him back up and he pulled away with a hap py sigh. "Glad to see I can still surprise you." Assless stretched and yawned. "Weirdos. I'll meet you dweebs later, ch ecking on dad boy blue bunny guy." He walked over to Asmo. Virgin bumped Diadem's hip with her own and she took his hand. "Wanna go to the r-section and check out a lil surprise~?" Dzilla walked over to Asmodeus and she patted his shoulder. "Hello Asm odeus, Wristband. I can watch him if you'd like?" Mary Janes squeaked and hopped down, hugging the leg of the large dem on. "Azzy!"

OSCAR: Gloves was little surprise that he doesn't know him, but I guess it wa s his cosplay at fault. It did cover his whole entire body after all, including his head. "Who am I? Oh right! This mask blocks out my head to everyone to see. Gives me a sec..." He said. He took off his head with his paws to reve al Gloves under cosplay Lucario to Archer Gloves. "Sorry about that. I guess we haven't introduce to you." Gloves said. "My name's Gloves Stone and this here on my left side is Sapphire, wea ring her Korrina cosplay." He looks at her. "Hello." Sapphire said. "Isn't this con wonderful?" She ask. "This is my first time being here and there's so many people here wearing aweso me cosplays, including yours." She smiles to Archer Gloves.

SAIYAN: Meanwhile, Bowtie tried to think of something fun for her and HP to do . "Well....maybe we could go out for ice cream? Ice cream always makes m e feel better" She said to HP.

HITA: Frowning in deep thought, VF considered its options here. Tilting its head, a new note passed to the distraught man. 'It will get in touch with him and grandmother. The Flies as you call them sounds familiar. Almost like something its grandmother ousted s ome time ago.' It frowned even harder at the thought. Actually, it s ounded very familiar. What was it about that name? 'A cult It thinks ?' Fingers curling, it smiled almost cruelly at the thought of wiping out a cult. One of the many things it had yet to let go of was the urge to purge all cults. 'It will aid you how It can.'

SOUP KITTY: Jong was blushing, and it was noticeable as heck. He held on for dear life to Vamp. This truly had swept him off his feet. Diadem looked a bit confused but agreed. "What is the surprise?" he as ked. It was almost as if he didn't know the implications of where they were going. Still, oblivious as ever, he followed happily and innocen tly. Pointe had found somewhere to sit, and kept reading her magical girl m anga. She had managed to save up all her allowance and the money she m ade from helping around the shop, and was having tons of fun buying al l the merch that her little heart could desire.

BRIT: Duster pulled Hot Pants along as they had just exited the merch room w ith more than enough Doujins, several figures, a body pillow, and too many stuffed alpacas. Duster was carrying everything, being the talles t. "Hots... I think we need to bring some of this merchandise to the car. " He said, "It's a bit much to carry." Strappon wandered the con aimlessly, feeling terribly out of place. He did take pictures of some cool costumes that he liked regardless of w hether or not he was familiar with the series.

RYAN: Giggling at Brooch’s sentient hair, Thigh High beamed at the woman bef ore her. “We should have called to coordinate, but your Lana looks so good!!!!” She squealed as she did the ok hand, shaking it for emphasis.” Pauldron gazed down at Archer Gloves and simply stated: “You dress wel l.” Thigh High cackled at the display in front of her before slapping Paul dron on the back as she pointed at his tree trunk arms, “This bad boy can fit so many feathers on his “wings”. I ‘m honestly h ella jealous.” “Luna has very good tastes when it comes to this sort of scenery! Much better than Cheeky’s.” Pauldron stammered out as he began to fan hims elf, was it hot in here or was it just him. “It’s just you.” Thigh High smirked much to Pauldron's horror he'd act ually said it aloud, what a fucking pleb. Then she gestured towards Cr ucifix. Pulling him by the collar to whisper in his ear, she held up a hand and whispered, “You’ve been so busy being gay you didn’t even no tice that he’s right beside you!” “Uhhhh….. Hello there Father Crucifix, long time no see!” The man righ ted himself up immediately and turned towards the man, holding out his hand. Pauldron, baby, please get your shit together.

COFFIN: Vampire Collar picked Jong up and he casually danced around with him i n his arms. Virgin plopped by her booth. She smiled and Bob slithered out of her c leavage. Bob waves to Diadem. "This is the booth for me and Flat's com pany."

OMEGA: "Indeed, I see you are cosplaying too. Boxer and Raincoat made me cosp lay, they thought that i would make a good Dracula." Father Crucifix s aid as he smiles at his friend. "Though how are you doing?" He ask as he looked at Pauldron. Meanwhile Raincoat and Boxer along with Asmodeus were by the Anime Fig ures. "I wonder if that got a Gundam Figure or Jojo Figure!" Boxer sai d as he looked at the Figures. "Today, i will find that Aqua Figure!" Raincoat said as she was looking at the Kingdom Hearts stuff.

SAIYAN: Wristband turned to Dzilla and smiled a bit at her offer. "Thanks, but I think I got this. Unless you wanted to help me, then I have no issues with that." Wristband replied.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: Ruka walked around the con in his Doomguy costume, looking at all the stands, merch, and all the goddamn furries everywhere. What he wouldn' t give for a flamethrower right about now. Distracted by his disgust t owards the furries, he accidentally bumped into Strappon, falling on h is ass. "Hey! Watch where you're going, fucker!" Flat Cap and Vest were just looking through Dark Soul merch at one the stands, with Vest hissing at the statues of Smough and Ornstein in ba ck the stand.

KURP: Seeing that Strappon went on without them, Luna and Sukajan got an ide a. They let Strappon mosey around the convention floor before approach ing him, Sukajan swinging Strappon to pose with them as Luna held out a phone for a selfie-styled picture. "Say Till Valhalla!" Luna said, trying to impersonate Mercy as best sh e could. "Ugh," Asmodeus groaned as Wristband began following his little group. "It's already in my contract that I can't kill, why keep watch over m e? Go out and enjoy this convention!" Archer looked back at Gloves and Sapphire, squinting a bit, "Uh, it's alright I guess. This isn't something I'm really used to." At this point he practically stuck himself to Pauldron's side, wrappin g his arms around Pauldron's as the man was speaking to someone else. Boy he was getting nervous for no reason. "Yeah, they're a cult from what little information we scrunched up. Ap parently a group of people that deeply worship an old demon of lore, B eelzebub. Everyone thinks Sash is him, but who knows. Any help is appr eciated, nonetheless," Hairpin said, giving a smile to VF. He crinkled his nose at Bowtie's silly suggestion, "Honestly, I don't have the appetite to eat anything right now..." Hot Pants looked at everything Duster was carrying, arching a brow. "I mean, if you let me carry something, this wouldn't be a problem but y eah, let's go back to the car real quick before your arms pop off."

SOUP KITTY: Jong giggled in delight. The dancing seemed to have attracted some sta res, but honestly he was having too much fin to care. "Hey thats pretty cool!" Diadem said. "what do you guys do?" He was ho nestly clueless, he probably missed the memo. Pointe was walking around again, and bumped into Thigh High, in the no n literal sense. "Oh hey! Aren't you friends with my sister?"

SAIYAN: Wristband just shook her head again, her magenta pig tails swishing ba ck and forth in front of her. "Because, Asmo, it's my job. As an angel I gotta make sure no one gets hurt by demons and ghost and the like" She said to him.

COFFIN: Dzilla smiled back,"I would love to help you. I would also like to cat ch up a little with him is all." Was Mary Janes nibbling on Asmo's leg? Yes. Was he ready to rangle the bullworm? Yeah. Virgin chucked and shook her head, "Oh Dia.. We have an adult toy comp any." Bob wiggled and stuck his sucker to Diadem's hand. Vampire Collar placed him down after a little bit, laughing some. "I l ove you darling.~ "

BRIT: Strappon had probably been knocked foreward by the force of Ruka's ent ire self, but was swept up by Sukajan. He had not only been accosted b y a man in full armor, but was now having pictures taken of him. "I was watching where I was headed!" He shouted to Ruka from Su's heft y grip. He pouted at the man who was holding him. "And can I help you? " Duster was glad Hot Pants offered, because he was now going to carry 8 0% of the items. They were dropped on him. "Fuck, I'm glad you offered." He said simply, "Carry your own weight."

HITA: Giggling at the sillines of the people before her, Brooch bounced a bi t in joy at Thigh High's compliment. She was happy! She had a chance to get it made professionally but her cousin wanted to make it. Of c ourse, because of this, the outfit was bulletproof. Kevlar was appare ntly a hassle to sew into clothing but it was still there. "My cousin made it for me! You haven't met Sleevies yet but she wants to meet you one day for sure! We've all just been... looking for Mis s Bifocals." She shifted, hair going limp before she bounced back. " Anyway!" She smiled at how silly everyone was being but kept her eye warily on the floor. She turned her eyes back to the people in front of her with a grin. "What interesitng costumes you all have!" And with the mention of Beelzebub, it clicked. Eyes narrowing, it cur led its lips in annoyance. 'You speak of they that are banned from its home, then. It thought so .' Nodding as it handed off the note, it tilted its head at the demon s before it. Eyes alighting on the way that Amulet and Bowtie seemed to be reacting to this, it inclined its head to the trio. 'It will be bringing this to its grandmother and the hunting will commence in glo rious fashion.'

YARANAIKA: Seeing a girl by herself, Yaranaika wandered over to Pointe and giggle d at the mangas. "Hello pretty girl!! Mind if I sit here with you??" Her hair seemed to look slick in the light and almost moved on its own before she sett led to smile kindly down at Pointe.

OMEGA: "Boxer! I found one of Kotobukiya Bishoujo!" Raincoat said as she hold s up one of the figures which was Female Version of the Thor from the Marvel Universe. "So Cool! How much is it?" Boxer ask as he looked Raincoat though keep ing his eyes on the figure. "Seems to be fifty dollars." Raincoat answer as she holds the figure. "I'll buy it!" Boxer said as he buys the figure. Soon the two started to buy some Figures and Artwork of Characters tha t they like.

OSCAR: Gloves smiles back to Archer Gloves and wears back his cosplay helmet. When he does that, he turn too Sapphire and she was looking at someth ing on her left side. Turning his head at the direction, she was looki ng at the ice cream stand. "Wanna get some ice cream?" He ask her. She respond to a yes and went towards the ice cream stand. Waving goodbye to the little ones, Dress Socks and G-Strings continue their search for the Lost Soul. "Okay." Dress Socks said to G-Strings. "If I where to be a Lost Soul, where would I be?" He said. "Probably at the merchandise?" G-Strings guess. "Most people usually g et cool figures and T-Shirts, so why not?" "Yeah." Dress Socks said. "Let's start." Like that they're walking tow ards to different merchandises in the search of the Lost Soul.

SOUP KITTY: Diadem's face looked as if he had just learned all the secrets of the universe. "Oooooh" He just nodded his head after that. "I love you too~" Jong cooed. It was probably super apparent to anyone who looked at them, that they were super in love. Jong kept an arm ar ound vamp's neck, and gazed lovingly into his eyes. "Sure!" Pointe chirped, this person seemed nice enough. "Would you lik e to read with me?" She asked, offering up a bag filled with a bunch o f newly bought mangas.

KURP: Taking some of the merch off Duster, Hot Pants yanked off the more imp ortant hauls of their little trip, the stuffed alpacas. "I have no idea how you could see with these obviously obscuring your vision," he commented. Upon reading the note that he was handed, a chill went down his spine. He wasn't even the target and he feels afraid for his life. "T-thank you," he managed. "It's us, Strap. You just kind of left us in the dust," Sukajan said a s his grip loosened, straightening up the former Templer. He looked do wn at Ruka who had his ass flat on the ground. "Nice Doom Marine outfit there, dude." Asmodeus rolled his eyes again. "Fine, but please don't be in the room when I'm feeding!"

RYAN: Thigh High sweated nervously before tugging on her collar and averting her gaze from Pointe's. "Haha, yeah, friends. Haha" Pauldron looked down at her and said what we're all thinking, "Stop laughing, it makes you sound very suspicious!" As he was feeling way more confident with how close Archer was standing to next to him. "I'm doing a lot better now that Cheeky is now preoccupied with this, Leon Leonhart." Pauldron answered Crucifix's questioned. "Uhm actually you forgot a Leon. There's three (3)." Thigh High correc ted as she poked her head into the middle of their conversation, holdi ng up three fingers to emphasize her point.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: "Thanks, i guess." Ruka said as he got back up on his feet, "That Helm et fucker got meat juice all over it earlier but I managed to clean mo st of it off. Afterwards, I puntkicked his ass back to the Abbey." Flat Cap eventually got tired of staring at Dark Souls merch and left Vest to go do his own thing, forgetting that Vest was liable to steal everything in the booth. After some walking, he noticed VK and Diadem and walked over them. "Oi, Virgy! I see ye got a booth set up, eh?"

KURP: "Hell yeah I'm three (3) whole Leon!" Leon yelled from the distance. W here the fuck did he come from.

SAIYAN: Bowtie's smile fell from her face. She really didn't know what to say to him right know. His child really was all that was on his mind and t here was nothing that would be able to change that it would seem. "Well, I'm sure that he'll turn up soon." Bowtie said, trying her best to comfort the poor carrot. Meanwhile back with Asmo and Wristband the two just kept on arguing. "How about I just turn around while you do it. But if I hear screams o f pain I will step in and put and end to it" she said sternly.

OMEGA: "That's great to hear." Father Crucifix said as he smiles showing his vampire fangs a little. "I wish Ball Gown was here with me. Maybe she could of been the Bride of Dracula." He chuckles as he looks a Pauldro n.

COFFIN: Virgin Killer started to laugh, holding her stomach. She loved him to bits and pieces. "Yeah, so I figured why not have a lil somethin out." She shrugged and squeaked when she heard Flatcap. "Heya sweets! Yeah! I talked to the event management office and they were chill with it." Vampire Collar kissed his nose and he moved his arms around Jong's hip s. "Good.~ How're you holding up Dulce?" He rubbed the others sides. Mary Janes heard feeding and he gasped. He then took his Hello kitty l unchbox out of his bear. He opened it and it was filled to the brim wi th dino chicken nuggets. "If you get hungry you can have some of these with me!" Oh this sweet boy. Dzilla chuckled and she shook her head.

KURP: "Her name is /Lisa/, at least have the decency to look up the series y ou're dressing up as, you," Archer spat, looking at Crucifix almost ac cusingly. He tried to hold on to Pauldron's hand, noticing that his tiny ones we re absolutely dwarfed. Feeling his face flush, he grabbed on to it wit h both hands. He felt like he was going to die on the spot, Lord help him. "So anyways. I've been interested in going to this artist alley they h ave here. Anyone want to come with?" "Ew, no!" Asmodeus said, "Just stay outside the room, goodness! Even I have more decency than that..." Sighing, he caught up with Boxer, once again wrapping his arms around him. "So tell me /Boxxy/, what do you want? You can ask me for anything, I have unlimited funds for your pleasure! Just point to it and it'll be your's." "I hope so too," Hairpin said. It finally seemed like his crying spell was ending, tugging on Amulet to reapply some of his makeup. "That's kind of a justified response," Luna said to Ruka, "If you need any proper repairs on that costume, just ask? I'm sure we got some ma terials to spruce it up back at the house."

OSCAR: While walking to different Booths with no sigh of the Lost Soul, Dress Socks spotted a booth that got his interest. He walks over to it with G-String with a curious look on her face. As they reach to the booth, theirs an item that was calling out to him and it was cosplay Inuyash a Tessaiga Sword. His eyes was glittered and want it so bad. G-Strings looks at the sword, then back at Dress Socks. "Are you sure you wanna buy it?" She ask him. "It cost $120.00 to buy it." "Yes!" Dress Socks answer immediately. "I know that we got...'Cosplay weapons', but this sword look so cool!" He don't want to blow their co ver that they have demonic weapons on them. Otherwise, they'll be kick ed out. G-Strings sighs and looks at him. "Alright. If you demonic hearts want s it, then go for it." She said. With that, Dress Socks immediately bought it and strap it behind his b ack. Meanwhile, Gloves and Sapphire are enjoying their Ice cream and sittin g at the bench. Gloves purchase Vanilla and Chocolate swirl and Sapphi re purchase Resse Pieces Ice Cream.

SOUP KITTY: Diadem laughed along with her, he was glad he came. Jong giggled a bit "I'm doing okay. A lot better than this morning." J ong stood on his tip toes and planted a kiss on Vamp's cheek. "I had p retty bad morning sickness." He sighed a little bit. "How about you? A re you doing okay?" Jong smiled warmly at his fiance.

OMEGA: "Ummmmmm" Boxer said as he started to sweat nervously as he look at As modeus. He try to find away out of this before the things go "Sexually Wrong". "I NEED TO US THE RESTROOM!" He shouted out nervously then ru nning in the Bathroom. Raincoat sigh as she wanted to have fun time with her best friend but can't because of Asmodeus.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: "Nah, it's fine." Ruka began, "This shit's actual combat armor I bough t off Ebay so a little meat juice ain't gonna do much to it." "Fuckin' A!" Flat Cap exclaimed, pumping his fist, "Which reminds me. I got an idea for a new dildo." He sat in a chair next to VK as he spo ke.

RYAN: "I'm so sorry to hear about Bifocals. Is there anything I can do to he lp?" Thigh High quietly asked. This the third disappearance, and she w as getting a bit worried. However, before the dread could consume her she spotted the couple before her. Thigh High blinked. She was laughing at Archer's attempts to hold Pauldron's hand that her laugh became silent and she was rolling on the floor. "His hands to small for his got dang boyfriend." She croaked out betwe en breaths. Pauldron rolled his eyes and began pulling Archer with him. Mostly to escape Thigh High, partially to ensure Archer doesn't murder someone. "An artist alley sounds great!."

SAIYAN: Wristband chuckled at Asmo's decency assertion. "Oh come on, I could give you some pointers on your technique if you w anted" she said jokingly to him. Bowtie could only give a reassuring smile and a pat on HP's back as he seemed to start getting ahold of himself after what seemed like and e ternity crying. "How about we go look around at some of the booths that are here, huh? " She suggested to HP.

KURP: "Who the fuck just sells the Doom Marine's armor? Dude, good luck that you'll live by the next weekend," Sukajan said, adjusting his cosplay 's scarf. He was an avid believer that the Doom Marine actually existe d. "Oh shut it!" It was clear that Asmodeus was flustered. How dare this woman just say that, in front of his anime merch booth! "Anyways, at least let me have fun with this Boxer kid. I want to see how long he'll last before he actually dumps me. After all, we never d id break up. Wouldn't you like to know how terrible he is to say no?" "I guess we could go out and look at stuff in the merch room, yeah," H airpin said, getting up. It was a good call that Pauldron decided to move on as Archer was actu ally more than ready to maim a person for his hardships. He simply poi nted as he was dragged away. He'll get his chance some other day. Righ t now, the focus was Pauldron. "Maybe we could find some nice things to take home! Though, my budget' s limited for today..."

FUJOSHI: As the convention fun continued, the small woman pattered around to fi nd a muse. Entering the Dealers' room, she gasped softly as she spotte d two pristine subjects: an elusive otter and a twink with the cutest little feet she ever did see. She whipped out her notebook and began w riting:

As a laugh escaped the young demon's supple lips, it sounded uncharacter istically cherubic. There was something so mesmerizing about the demon, even despite the fact that Flat Cap was an Angel. It was as if something came over him at that very moment... Diadem was undeniably adorable. "You know," The Angel said suddenly, turning toward the cosplay-clad dem on as if nothing he'd said previously mattered, "You're pretty cute in t hat dumb costume." Diadem blushed violently and covered his face with a squeek. How sudden this compliment came from this dashing stranger!

SAIYAN: "I'm not saying you can't have fun with him, just don't suck him dry u ntil he disintegrates" Wristband replied to Asmo as she folded her arm s and leaned against one of the booths. Bowtie grabbed HP and started walking towards some of the booths to ch eck out some of the stuff that they were selling. "Well, what do you think? See anything of interest?" she asked him.

COFFIN: Vampire Collar rubbed his lower back. "I heard...I'm sorry sweetheart. " He nuzzles him. "I'm fine dear no worries." Virgin clapped her hands excitedly,"Ooo! I can't wait~!" Mary realized that the adult he was clinging to indeed ment sex. He st arted to eat his chicken nuggets, boy was stressed but fuck was Asmo g ood transportation. Virgin Killer blinked "uh..n..nani?" Assless yeeted himself over to check on his sister. Dzilla blinked and looked around. "Where is my grand child..?" She sta rted to panic and search around.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: "Pfft, I'll be fine. Especially since I got this bad boy along with th e armor." Ruka said, pulling out a shotgun that looked just like the o ne Doom Marine uses. Flat Cap held his mouth after he said that. "Uhhhh....okay, that was f uckin' weird." He said, confused about what just happened. Yeah, he'd totally fuck Diadem if he could but he was a demon so why the fuck he did just call him cute?

SOUP KITTY: Diadem removed his hands from his face, and blinked slowly. He looked over at Virg, and then back at Flat Cap with a concerned look on his f ace. "What... was that..?" He cleared his throat. He looked nervous.

OMEGA: Emperor Crown was still taking pictures because his Pride was taking o ver him. The Demon Brothers were still trying to lure the Lost Soul ou t with Fan-service of Brothers "Loving each other" though Fans of Oura n were taking pictures and some going crazy over this. Boxer then came out of the Bathroom slowly thinking that he got that a ll out of his system.

BRIT: Strappon felt terrible for not recognizing Luna and Sukajan to begin w ith and cleared his throat. "I'm so sorry. I guess I got a little lost in my thoughts." He apologi zed, turning toward Ruka. He looked the costume up and down, "The armo r is pretty wild, actually." Blazer walked out of the bathroom behind Boxer and noticed he looked n ervous. "Hey, man. You alright?" They asked, "You're lookin pale."

SOUP KITTY: Jong looked over at Boxer, a little bit concerned. "Baby? I'll be righ t back.." He walked over to boxer to see what was wrong. "Hey, are you doing okay?" Jong was clearly very concerned. Pointe was still reading her mangas somewhere. Hoping that somehow, th igh highs could pick up on her thought, which went something like "I k now you guys are in lesbians with eachother."

RYAN: Pauldron was about to brag about covering it himself, but then he reme mbered that he had most of his money on lockdown ever since Cheeky ema iled that Nigerian Prince and used everyone's info. Pauldron was regre tting leaving Thigh High behind. She may be intolerable at times but, she does have deep pockets. "Mine is too... However, I'm sure we can combine what we've got to get something nice!" He looked down at Archer and smiled, "Though I'm sure the time we spend together will be more valuable!" He said as he squeezed his hands. "Ha gay!" Thigh High called from her spot on the ground. Pauldron's sh oulders fell as he sighed. It was beginning to become very clear to Pa uldron that Thigh High got her personality from his other partner and not her mother.

OMEGA: "Asmodeus is acting weird. Our Relationship was fake and stuff but he still acting like he is my boyfriend." Boxer said to Blazer and Jong a s he looks at them. "I want to have fun today and be a nerd..." Boxer said as he look down feeling that this day was sour.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: Vest was casually trying to sneak out a duffle bag full of Dark Souls, Monster Hunter, World of Warcraft, and The Witch merch. Pay no attent ion to this man.

SOUP KITTY: Jong chuckled a bit and pat boxer on the back. "Maybe it was a little more real than you thought?" Jong smiled.

YARANAIKA: Having been reading mangas with Pointe, Yaranaika's eyes locked onto t he pair that had become, clearly, an OTP. Squealing in delight, hands clapping together, the ghost thanks the Shipping Gods for their decis ion to answer her prayers to give some juicy ship fun. "This is exciting! That was cute, cute, cute!"

KURP: "Are you sure you should be encouraging that? I mean, that kid is an a ngel." This simply confused Asmodeus. Is she going to watch over him o r not, make up your mind. It took him a bit to realize that he had a child in tow. He looked ove r to where Mary was and blinked. "Oh, well. Guess he's going to have questions later on." Luna's face paled, taking the gun real quick as she painted a bright o range tip on it. "Sorry if you don't want this confiscated, it's gonna need that orange tip." Sukajan patted Strappon, "Don't sweat it, I'm guessing this is your fi rst proper con experience?" Hairpin tapped his chin as he looked around the dealer's room. "It'd be nice if I could find something for Piggles," he said, "I know Amulet wanted to buy her a new sweater but I doubt people are selling anything small enough for her." Archer could feel the heat on his face at the suggestion, "We could! I 'm sure we have enough for something that's of high quality. Or maybe we could buy some nice stationary, that's always nice." He was close to fainting as Pauldron went on if it weren't for his mig hty need to rip his namesakes off to summon his bow. "Yeah and what of it!" He called back to Thigh High.

FUJOSHI: Fujoshi giggled wildly as she heard the interaction between the two an d decided to turn it up a notch.

The squeel Diadem made was the cutest thing Flat Cap had ever heard! And look at that blush- he thought to himself- it only makes his boyish fac e look even cuter! He seemed to flustered. "Mr. Flat Cap, please. I'm a gentleman!" Diadem managed to sputter, batt ing his lashes in a flirtatious manner. His voice was soft and British a s usual. "If you intend to court me, do it correctly." "Correctly, huh? Then how about-" Flat Cap moved closer to Diadem and sw ept him backward in a dip! "A kiss?" A wind blew and Sakura petals scented the air sweetly as their moment wa s held for what seemed like ages in time, but was actually a few moments .

OMEGA: "If it was real then i would be a Demon and i don't want to be a Demon ." Boxer said as he look down. "I don't want to end up like my Father. " He said as he was starting to feel more sour as he talked.

COFFIN: Vampire Collar nodded, "Be careful love." He checked on his phone to s ee what everyone else was doing, keeping an eye on the two. Virgin Killer made a small noise and she raised a brow. "What in the d ick suck...?" She smelled something fishy. Assless crossed his arms and looked around. "I'm gonna check on the sp ooks. Be back." He walked off to go check on Vampire after pecking Dia dem's cheek. Dzilla finds Mary on Asmodeus' leg and she sighs. He'd be okay. The Tracer of the group made her way over to the other overwatch dweeb s. Foxstole stretched. "Glad to see more people doing this game." She looked at Luna. Mary was nugget filled and embarrassed. His face was hidden in Asmo's leg. He mumbled hello.

BRIT: "Man, if he's making you uncomfortable, you have the authority to brea k it off." Blazer explained, giving him a reassuring hand to the shoul der, "You're not obligated to stay with him, 'specially if you feel li ke he's using you. It's not healthy. Just tell him: 'I don't think we should be together anymore.' You don't gotta explain yourself, bro."

SOUP KITTY: Diadem snapped out of it and planted his feet on the ground making him self stand up, the nervous look was one of fear now, as he had no idea what had happened. He started muttering to himself, clearly terrified . He stepped away from Flat Cap and stood behind Virg. "What the h*ck is happening?" Jong gave boxer a reassuring no homo bro hug. "Just break it off then? " Pointe continued to be intrigued by her manga, way too invested in the story to be paying attention to anything else.

OMEGA: "But he knows it's all fake! We staged so he could help me get my job back when he was Gogo!" Boxer said as he stand up and looked at Blazer s. "Why are Demons drawn to me..." He said as he sat back down and loo k down.

SOUP KITTY: Jong rolled his eyes a little. "Just do it anyway. Things might seem o ne way to you but they may not be like that to other people."

TOTALLY NOT DJ: Ruka grimaced when Luna placed the orange tip on the gun. "Come on, it 's not like im actually gonna use it. Not yet, anyways." He said as a smirk appeared on his face. Flat Cap blinked a few times before coming to his senses as well and l ooked at his hands. "Okay...I'm actually starting to get a little scar ed now. And comin' from me, that's sayin' something."

SAIYAN: "Look, do you want to smash or not?" Wristband said with a glare at As mo. Meanwhile Bowtie looked at HP with a raised eyebrow. "Who the heck is Piggles?" she asked him

COFFIN: Mary Janes straight up faints. Wasted. Virgin Killer scoops up Diadem and she chancla glares at Flatcap. "Lip s off my twink mr." Assless Chaps and Vampire Collar were watching things, well mostly Vam pire. Assless was patrolling around him. Dzilla was trying to get S.U merch for her boy.

BRIT: "This is Lady Piggles, you uncultured fop." Came Amulet's voice as he strolled in with a stroller. It contained one (1) tiny piglet in a beh emoth costume, "And you will address her as such." "Buddy, just dump the fuck." Blazer pushed a bit, "He seduced Cowlneck , too, remember? Cowl hasn't spoken a positive word to Asmodeus since then. Usually he's a catty bitch, but he knows he was wronged, and you do, too." They sighed and shook their head. "And Demons are drawn to you because you fall for it. Some of us are j ust way too susceptible to their temptations. You wear your sins on yo ur sleeve a bit." They explained.

FUJOSHI: The little lady gasped as Virgin Killer scooped Diadem up. She had to fix this, and quick! She sat on the floor and really let her notebook have it:

"Hey, Virgin! What's going on?" Diadem asked the tall, scantilly clad la dy with rage in his eyes, "This absolute stud is trying to give me the b est romance of my life!" "I can't keep this going, I know you two are terrible for each other! Wh at about me? I thought we were a thing!" Virgin Killed wept, holding Dia dem crushingly close to her. She seemed so angry about this- the injusti ce was too much for her, but she didn't realize how she was coming betwe en such a beautiful relationship! ((Just like a dumb baka girl to come between two kawaii boys having a re lationship, said Fujoshi as she wrote feverishly)) Flat Cap acted immediately and swept Diadem out of Virgin Killer's obvio usly weak grip. "Don't worry, Di. I'll keep you safe." He said, holding the boy close. D iadem looked like he was going to cry!

OMEGA: "Alright, Jong and Blazer. Thank you." Boxer said as he hugs the two g iving them the most strongest hug ever.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: Flat Cap shook his head and noticed Diadem in his arms once again. He quickly pushed away, though not hard enough as to knock him over. "OOo ookay!!! Yeah yeah yeah something's really wrong and I dont like it! I ....fuck, I need to use the restroom." With said, he quickly made his way to the nearest bathroom to wash his face. "What the fuckin' hell.. .?" He muttered to himself.

COFFIN: Virgin Killer blinks and nearly summons her weapon. "Hold the mother f ucking phone and put it on vibrate, what the fuck!?" Bob yeeted himsel f out of her cleavage and he stuck a sucker to Diadem's face. "Okay no w this shits definitely a good damn ghost. I can feel it in my cooch."

Assless Chaps rushed over to his sister and he hugged Diadem. "Sweet l orrrd..I leave forrre two minutes..arrre you okay?" Assless looked dow n and squished Diadem's cheeks. Vampire Collar quickly moved to Jong and took his hand. "I feel like s omething might be up."

SOUP KITTY: And he did start crying. Tears started streaming down his cheeks as he was pushed away, clearly more confused now than ever. He had bumped r ight into to Virgin. "I'm so sorry I don't know what's happening a-and .." he couldn't finish his words now. He was too confused. He came out here to have a good time and he was honestly feeling so attacked righ t now. This boy was sensitive beyond belief. Rest in peace Diadem. Jong wiggled out of the hug "Dude careful, I have buns in the oven." h e then looked at vamp "Hmm?"

KURP: Luna looked at Ruka with an exasperated expression. She didn't even wa nt to know. She instead turned around to see Foxstole, smiling as the other angel approached her. "Hey, that's a pretty nice Tracer cosplay you got going on!" "I do!" Asmodeus began, "But I'm concerned over the fact that you're m aking an exception, is all. Unless the kid is truly that bad..." Upon seeing the piglet, Hairpin began to make small kissy noises at it as he grabbed the piglet and held it in his arms. "And she's the fairest Lady in the convention. Aren't you?"

SAIYAN: Bowtie's eyes lit up as she saw the adorable little piglet in a stroll er. She never really had felt like the way she did when seeing a cute cat or dog when she saw a pig before but her she was fawning over one. "Awww! Isn't she adorable?! I didn't know you guys had a pig! How long have you had her?" she asked, completely ignoring Amulet's orders to call her by a certain title. Wristband laughed at Asmo's comment. "You don't know the half of it" she replied.

OMEGA: "Oh Sorry, I just like hugging people." Boxer said with a smile as he feeling better. Raincoat was watching the Weird Fanfic happening.

COFFIN: Dzilla Usain Bolted over to Asmodeus and she scooped up Mary Janes. " Um what exactly happened and why is he out cold??" Vampire Collar looked down at Boxer and he cleared his throat a tad. " I feel like something's going on. I have no clue what but if this is l ike last year I suggest we keep our guards up." Dadpire has arrived. Virgin and Assless hug Diadem and they start to purr, trying to calm h im. "It's okay sweetie." They said in unison.

KURP: Asmodeus got closer to Wristband, "Do tell. I wasn't really paying att ention to him under aliases. Had to play the part of some catty actor and all." He was caught off guard by Dzilla's entrance and shrugged. "Guess the kiddie heard things he wasn't supposed to because I didn't even know he was around until it was too late."

BRIT: Blazer very well dangled in Boxer's grip, adjusting the sword on their back to avoid hurting the boy holding him. "Yer welcome." They said through a smooshed face. Amulet crossed his arms and rolled his eyes as Bowtie fawned over his little piglet.

KURP: "We've had her for a few years now. I'm sure we've had her for at leas t three years," Hairpin said, "Amulet gifted her to me but truth is, h e fell smitten with her first."

TOTALLY NOT DJ: Wanting to explore the con some more and maybe get some merch, if Vest hasn't stolen already, Ruka walked off and took off the orange tip fr om the shotgun cause fuck Luna. He eventually ran into Tank Top and Dr ess Shirt doing some gay shit in front of a bunch of fangirls. "What t he flying fuck are you sons of bitches doing?" He asked as he approach ed the brothers.

SAIYAN: Bowtie was surprised to hear how old the pig was. She thought it was s till a baby, but it turned out that she was actually much older than t hat. "Wow, I didn't think she was that old. I thought she was still a littl e piglet." She replied to HP. Meanwhile, Wristband rubbed her temples, thinking of Boxer and his ant ics that he's pulled in the past. "Jeez, where do I begin? The dude's been a hassle from day one. He eve n managed to punch a Seraph in the face. That was pretty amusing to wa tch. So no one would object to something bad happening to him. It woul d be karma for sure." Wristband explained.

COFFIN: Dzilla nodded,"Yeah makes sense." She took him off to go get the print s signed. Was he limp on her shoulder? Yeah.

YARANAIKA: It took some time but Yaranaika stood, waving happily at Pointe after returning her manga. "I have to go!" She placed her hands on the girl's face and skipped o ff. Unseen to her and probably to Pointe as well, a small tendril of ghostly energy attached to Pointe's cheek and sank into the skin. Aft er she skipped away she began to look for others. Eyes swirling in he r joy, she saw her new goal. Hot Pants and Duster may have been expecting a fun day but she could t ell this OTP would be amazing! It just wasn't... sugoi enough. Yeah! She clapped her hands together in devious glee as her pigtails almost looked to be curling. Skipping over, she giggled in what she deemed t o be a cute manner but was truly just... mad. Insane, really. Like a Hime laugh. "Your cosplays are so sugoi!! Where'd you get 'em?!"

RYAN: Shaking herself out of her stupor, Thigh High stood up as she was call ed out by Archer Gloves. "You're both hella old and yet, you're acting like you're highschool c rushes it's honestly kinda pathet-" "Your father told me about your date with Pumps and Luna." Pauldron cu t in, he's maybe a healer but..... "And I'm the only reason he hasn't told anyone... Though I don't belie ve I should be trying to protect you when you're clearly okay with air ing other people's business." "No papa." Thigh High dropped her accusatory pointed finger and shook her fist at the sky. How could you father? Not even the McCree Voice R eel was enough to shut him up, she should have known that. Hanging her head in defeat. "Fine, but don't expect me to part the sea of weebs for you anytime so on!"

SOPHIE: Ruffles was making her way down town, walking fast, faces past on the way to a shitshow. BA DA DA DA DA DA.. DA DA DA DA. After abruptly clo sing shop upon hearing this con had full sets of the Pokemon mangos, s he was ready to blow hard earned money on stuff that had already been uploaded illegally online, that she had red about 4 times prior. She s lipped through the crowds, and for once nobody seemed to question why she dressed like a 10 year old from a video game. She scanned through the seating area in the front of the con and locat ed her target. Her eyes glint red as a grin swept over her face. Money in hand, the 23 year old raced over to Pointe. "HI SO-" She started, jumping in place. "THE MANGAS?" She finished.

OMEGA: "What is happening with Mr. Banjo?" Boxer ask as he looked over at Fla tcap and Diadem who were acting weird. All other character are busy. Maybe. I have to much characters.

SOUP KITTY: Pointe looked at the girl who had just touched her face, and then over at Ruffles "oh here-" she said, handing over the full sets she had pi cked up. She smiled. Jong was pretty much heart eye emojis for vamp right now. He loved his Dadpire. Diadem had calmed down a little. What a horrifying experience that was . Truly one he'll remember for years.

KURP: "The Seraph in question?," He inquired, "If it's Dermal, then the guy deserves it too." "Yeah. I'm unsure of why she retained this size, but I'm guessing she must be a different type of micro pig," Hairpin said, setting Piggles back down on her little stroller. Archer huffed as he tugged on his namesakes, straightening them out, " I'm sure yelling has the same effect to get them out of the way," he s aid. Hot Pants blinked as some girl suddenly approached them. He was strugg ling to keep the alpacas within his grip, adjusting himself as he trie d to find words. "Uuuuh, we had them custom made by a friend," he said.

SOPHIE: Ruffles blinked, holding out AT LEAST two hundred dollars in cash. _"W ill this cover the fees, my fair lady?"_ She uttered, in the very most seriously serious tone. After all, it was a convention. Shits pricey there m'dude.

FUJOSHI: Fujoshi was stunned. These two were not as kawaii as she had first hop ed. Giving up on this current fandom, she stood and pattered off to fi nd another possible ship she could write about. Life was too short to write about a sunken ship.

OMEGA: "We are trying to lure the Lost Soul out." Dress Shirt said as he look ed at Ruka. "This wasn't my idea but my Brothers idea. He is fucking B i after all." Tank Top said as he looked at Ruka too. "So, what the fu cking is going on with your friend?" He ask as he points over to Flatc ap.

SOUP KITTY: Pointe nodded "that should cover it." In reality, pointe had dished ou t a lot more than that for one set. But she wasn't about to break some one's dreams like this.

SOPHIE: Ruffles blinked, glossing over what books were included, she was shock ed. "Wait-are you sure? Dude this stuff goes for loooaaads more online , especially if it's collectors edition-" She blinked, taking a seat n ext to Pointe. She opened her purse and began shoveling out quite a lo t of 20 dollar bills. "Honestly just tell me when" She stated, as if the money was water and the space she was placing the money was a glass, being filled at a re sturaunt.

BRIT: Duster snagged a few alpacas away from Hot Pants to keep them from fal ling over. He turned and quirked a brow at the young woman. She had th e chaotic air about her... Like one of the Silver Elite. It made visib ly uncomfortable, but he had to be courteous. "A few touchups were made by professionals, but my brother helped us m ake them. Thank you for the... Compliment." He said, moving the cape a little bit. He wondered if he should cheese the Vaati charm he'd lear ned about, but he didn't want to get caught up in all this. That was m ore a Cowlneck thing.

SOUP KITTY: "holy shit you're good its okay" Pointe just stared wide eyed at the n ew stack of $20s on her hand. She was mildly shook. A light shookening .

TOTALLY NOT DJ: Ruka looked over at Flat Cap as he walked into the bathroom. "Okay fir st off," he began, turning back to the brothers, "That fucker ain't my friend. Second of all: How the fuck should I know? And third of all: What kind of ghost would be attracted by this degenerate shit?" He the n remembered the incident with Jackalube a while back, "Actually, dont answer that." Flat Cap, meanwhile, started washing his face.

OSCAR: As Gloves and Sapphire was done with their delicious ice cream, they g o on a walk through the con and look at the different booths. Meanwhile, Dress Socks and G-Strings was getting a little tired from w alking and rest on the brown bench. "Man," Dress Socks said. "There's lots of people in here and it's hard to find the Lost Soul. It's like finding a Lost Soul in a Hay Stack!" He shouted. "I know," G-Strings said. "But we need to be patient. Sooner or later, that Lost Soul will be found. For now, I need to rest." Dress Socks nod and now watch other Cosplay pass by them.

COFFIN: Dadpire held Jong close to his hip and he pecked the top of his head. "Nothing is happening to my husband to be." Foxstole sat near a booth on her phone, she was bored and people were loud. Virgin Killer sighed and she coated her baby carrot boy in kisses. Assless Chaps sighs,"I'll get you some waterrr." He walked off and bum ped into Ruka before losing his balance in his heels and falling on to p of him. "Holy fuck.." He looked down at Ruka. "Oh. Grrreat."

SOPHIE: Ruffles stopped mid-pouring cash into a minor's hands and blinked.

LAST TIME ON DCM: Doki Doki Con was underway and Angels had been so graciously invited to this year's convention, taking advantage of this as a time to relax and have fun from their busy work schedules. Demons, on the other hand, had been instructed to keep an eye out for a potential Lost Soul but they we re having poor luck in trying to draw it out...for the most part. Abbey-goers, that included both Demons and Angels, began experiencing we ird events where they acted out shitty fic scenes that were probably wri tten by some middle school kid that barely discovered yaoi. Will it be all sakura petals and fun times or turn into something more s inister? Hopefully neither.

SOPHIE: Ruffles is queer and here.

BRIT: Strappon had found himself someplace to be with Luna Circlet and Sukaj an. Blazer had recovered from the bearhug and went to seek out some of the ir fellow cosplayers, trying to keep a lookout for odd activity that w asn't being caused by Asmodeus.

OMEGA: Boxer head back to re-join Raincoat to continue their convention fun. Emperor Crown got done taking pictures and join up with Father Crucifi x. Tank Top and Dress Shirt stop with their "Brother Love" and started to search for the Ghost.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: Ruka dropped his shotgun as Assless bumped and feel on top of him. He shook his head and looked up at Assless before furrowing his brow. "Ge t the fuck of me!" He exclaimed, pushing the Hex Boy off. Flat Cap finally emerged from the bathroom, a large cloud of smoke exi ting the door as he opened. Motherfucker was smoking weed again. Helmet finally arrived at the Con, waddling through the entrance in hi s ham costume that smelled of stinky meat.

KURP: It was clear to Hot Pants that Duster wasn't feeling like humoring a r andom patron of the con and nudged him. "Uh, thank you for the compliments, but we gotta go take care of a few things right now. Our hands are kind of full, ya know?" Near the entrace of the con, a new face was being bombarded by enthus iastic children, cosplayers, and cosplay enthusiasts alike. Speedo hea rd about a potential Lost Soul from the work email but he wasn't expec ting it to be this pact at the convention. He was actually regretting not making a disguise for the occasion as he could barely move a foot without being stopped for a photo or two. Oh bother. Asmodeus spotted Boxer and approached him with open arms, ready to giv e him a hug. "Boxxy!" He cooed, "Sweetie. Was your stomach hurting? You certainly t ook a bit over there. I hope everything's okay." Luna was busying herself with making quick adjustments to Sukajan's co splay, eventually moving on to fixing Strappon's shirt as well. Not so much that Strappon needed it, but it was a force of habit at this poi nt. Sukajan looked around, sitting down for a bit in silence before jumpin g up on his feet. "We should probably go look for others, see how they're doing and all. Something doesn't feel right..."

COFFIN: Mary Janes woke up covered in Steven universe plushies and he nearly f ainted again. He got up and climbed onto his nana. "THANK YOU THANK YO U THANK YOU!" Mary screeched as he kissed Dzilla's cheeks. Dzilla started to chuckle and she pecked his forehead. "Never a proble m Mary." Assless Chaps grunted when his ass hit the floor. He rolled his eyes a nd he got up, dusting himself off. "Was planning on it dick munch." Foxstole was taking a smoke break.

OWLIE: "Um, hello guys!" Polo said, smiling and waving at some of the angels as they approached. He was wearing his Blue Diamond costume and he loo ked pretty proud about it. In fact, every member of the Buttondown household was wearing Steven U niverse-themed costumes. Monocle strutted in his Yellow Diamond costum e, (Those boots made him feel tall and powerful) and Sneakers in a Rub y costume followed closely, he was looking around, looking for his boy friend. Henley Shirt, dressed as Pink Diamond, was pulling a wagon, in the wag on was Cardigan, cosplaying as White Diamond, Her headpiece was glowin g like a lamp and she remained in a single pose while Henley dragged h er along.

SOUP KITTY: Jong scrolled through his phone for a bit before looking back up. Noth ing seemed out of the ordinary yet but if his Dadpire was concerned th en he would be alert. Pointe shoved the cash into her wallet and cried internally. She could get more anime figures now. She would like to not only thank God but also the Goddess for this newfound fortune. Diadem regained his composure. He definitely looked like he had been c rying. Why was he like this. This whole thing was definitely cause for concern though. "Hey, I'm gonna go meet up with Jong. That was way to o weird." And with that, the twink was on his way. Blessed be his twin k nubs, which so quickly carried him all the way to where Jong was. He promptly let him know what had just happened. "I'm gonna text Virg and Assless to meet us here. I dont want things t o get too out of hand and have us all be split up." Diadem simply nodded at this and stood next to Jong and Vamp, with his arms crossed. Boy oh boy did he wanna go home.

OMEGA: Boxer gulps and gives Asmodeus a gentle hug. "My stomach is fine just need to take a number two, hehe." Boxer chuckles nervously as he looks at Asmodeus. He would tell Asmodeus something later but not right now .

EMI: Mong was spending a lot of time showing off in his cute costume. It wa s a perfect opportunity to binge, that's for sure, but the uh... Viril ity of a lot of the men around here was questionable, at the very leas t. Thankfully there were plenty of berzerkers around. Why was he there again? Oh, right. Lost Soul or something. He was sure he would find it by doing his usual duties anyway.

COFFIN: Mary Janes boyfriend senses tingled and he steered his grandmother ove r to the diamond authority. He hopped off of the giant woman and he hu gged Sneakers. "Sneakie!!" Dzilla simply waved to the adults of the gr oup. Vampire Collar sent a text to Assless Chaps and he exhaled. He took hi s sippy cup out of his hair and he started to chug it. He was indeed a nervous drinker. "I sent Assless a text he should be over soon if he sees it." Virgin Killer made her way over to the two Hex boys and her Dexter. "H ey kiddies. Anyone else getting the feeling some shit might be up?"

TOTALLY NOT DJ: "Try to watch where you're fucking going next time, leech." Ruka said as he got up and grabbed the shotgun before walking off. After passing some booths, he noticed a man in an admittedly really good shark man cosplay and approached him after a group of people were done taking ph otos of him. "Gotta say, man. You're killing it with that shark man ge tup." Helmet wandered through the con like an idiot, amazed by all the booth s and merch before noticing Strappon with Luna and Sukajan. "Brother S trappon, Ser Sukajan, Madam Luna!" He exclaimed, waddling towards the trio. "What doth thou all thinketh of my cosplay?"

OWLIE: "This is fucking pointless," Circlet said in distaste as she looked do wn at her costume, she was cosplaying as Allura from Voltron. She and Pocket Watch (dressed as HIM from the Power Puff Girls) are walking ar ound, looking for their comrades. "Nonsense, Circe" Pocket Watch chuckled as he stopped and took some se lfies with some cosplayers. He turned to her and grinned, let's just h ave some fun while doing our job, okay?" "Mary!" Sneakers said as he ran to catch the bean in a tight embrace. "Wow... You look pretty" "/Hello Starlight/~" Cardigan said, still remaining in character, blin king at Mary Janes and gave him an eerie smile.

KURP: "Do you want me to give you a few kisses to make you feel better anywa ys?" Asmodeus asked, once again embracing Boxer, playing with his hair . "By the way, my offer still stands. Ever want anything from here, I ca n get it for you." "There are some right now," Luna said, pointing over to Polo's little group. "Hi guys!" She called out, waving to them, "Your outfits are al l nice, glad you could make it."

SOPHIE: Ruffles was sitting next to Pointe, after making the young girl consid erably more wealthy. She had a gameboy in her hands and it was clear she had some business to finish. Flipping open the lid on the device, you could hear very distinct bells followed by what sounded like highl y bit-compressed trumpets. It was then it became clear that the girl w as trying to catch the legendary in her game, but not with a master ba ll. No. Her eyes had bags under them from the pure repetition she had to endur e to try and catch a legendary whale in a simple pokeball. She'd spent hours resetting her game and trying again and again. Her friends sugg ested she just use a masterball, but no, it wasn't that simple. The ma sterball was ugly. Who'd use that. Not Ruffles.

COFFIN: "Trrry to be less of a chode next time." Assless spat before checking his phone. He looked at his texts and he made his way to complete the Hexes. Mary's face paint covered his blush but he was certainly warming up. " Y-y-you look pretty t-too." He smiled at Cardigan and he waved. "Hiya White!"

OMEGA: "You!" Emperor Crown said as he walks over to Henley Shirt. He looked at him and started to chuckle. "It looks a i don't have to do anything because you're ridiculous costume has done it for me!" Emperor Crown laugh as he was being a asshole. "Polo and Mono good to see you here. Also, great costumes." Father Cru cifix said as he approach to them with a smile. "Ummm not at the moment. I just want to have a fun day and be a Nerd." Boxer said with a nervous smile as he looks at Asmodeus. Raincoat was looking at the Art of Aqua from Kingdom Hearts.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: Vest soon came back to the Con after shoving the bag of stolen merch i n his truck and was now in his Sly Cooper cosplay rather than the Hann ibal Lecter one Flat Cap forced on him. He looked around for more stuf f to steal, he noticed PW and Circlet, more specifically PW. "Hey, Poc ket Watch!" He called out as he approached them, "I love you Him costu me! Oh, and your costume looks good too, Circlet."

OSCAR: While walking at different booths, Gloves and Sapphire was looking at different materials from the stands. Most of them contain some shirts of different cartoon shows they've watch and some of them was differen t anime that they never watch. While looking, Sapphire got a glimpse o f an item that she look at and it was a Poké Ball. She forgot that her cosplay doesn't contain a Poké Ball and plans on buying it. Luckily, it was only five dollars to pay for a ball and she pays for it for her self. Gloves was with her getting a Poké Ball and he was getting few attenti ons form other cosplayers. As such, they let them get a picture of him and wave while saying, "Lucario!" Meanwhile, Dress Socks and G-Strings was sitting on a brown bench sinc e they walk for so long, but now they got up and continues to search f or the Lost Soul again.

SOPHIE: As Ruffles became more and more agitated by her game, one of the "mock " pokeballs on her belt fell loose. As it hit the ground, the contents inside popped out.

OWLIE: "Thank you, Miss Luna," Polo said, grinning slightly. "Me and Monocle worked hard to make the costumes, I'm glad it looks good" "/Hello Starlight/" Cardigan said once again. Henley rolled his eyes, but then his head turned at the direction of EC's voice. He gritted hi s teeth. "Piss off, fucker, I'm not in the mood to talk to you, so get out of my face or you'll get another round of ass kicking" "No fighting" Monocle said strictly, his heels clacking against the ti led floor as he approached the two. "Try to stay away as far from each other, will you? "Thank you, dear vest~" PW said, smiling widely. Circlet returned the greeting with a simple wave.

OMEGA: "My My My what rude little tongue you have." EC said as he was about s ummon his weapon but was stopped by Mono with said "No Fighting". "Wha tever, my revenge is complete thanks to your costume." He chuckles as he looks at him. He was being like a asshole which he was. Tank Top and Dress Shirt keep their eyes out for the Lost Soul.

SOUP KITTY: As the pokeball opened, it wasn't a figure that popped out. Instead it was a girl. An angry one. This particular girl looked like a very dis gruntled Pikachu. Her eyes darted around the room. She wasn't in Kansa s anymore. Kansas being the woods where she last remembered being. She felt her eye twitch. /he/ was close by. Yes. ___He.___ Across the convention, a chill ran down Diadem's spine. "Pinafore is h ere." He muttered. Now wanting to leave more than before. Less importantly, Purity Ring had just shown up as Bombshell Wonder Wo man. She kept getting pulled aside for pictures. Pointe's jaw dropped at the sight of pinafore freshly out of her pokeb all. "What the fuck" was all that she could manage to say. What the fu ck indeed. Jong just looked at Diadem. He blinked. "What. Isn't she like, in a ga rbage can somewhere?"

SOPHIE: Ruffles held Pinafore back by the collar of her shirt, slipping her fi nger under it and hooking it around. "Hey, bad, we talked about this." She muttered, searching through her bag. She reached in and pulled ou t a Pikachu headband and fixed it on the girl's head. It was as if she had a trainer's bond with her pokemon. Which was strange because this wasn't a pokemon but instead a raging psychopath hellbent on getting the love of her life in a Princess Lea costume in a dungeon. But regardless, she turned to address Pointe's simple, and understanda ble response. Still holding Pinafore back by the collar of her shirt, Ruffles simply replied "She uh. Well, she broke into my house a while back and I hucked this ball at her and it worked so. Yeah. Frankly I'm rolling with the insanity."

BRIT: Duster nodded at Hots' suggestion and made a break for the door with q uick feet. No thanks, no fangirl today. After unloading their merch in to his car, they made their way back into the con at a different entra nce. "I don't want to encounter her again." He said to Hot Pants, after bei ng pulled aside by a few people for pictures. "I'd rather not deal wit h the rabid types." Blazer stared Asmodeus down for a good couple of seconds before approa ching the group and giving Asmo a rough pat to the back. "Listen, sugar daddy. Back off a bit. He's clearly crawlin in his skin ." They said.

SOUP KITTY: Pinafore made a pouty face. To a stranger, this would seem very very c ute. She looked at Ruffles "Its not like i can be more than five feet away from you anyway." She sighed, and opened her locket. It was a pic ture of Diadem, her true love. Sure she had other loves, but, Diadem? He was her first. Her first love that is. She started giggling quietly , which quite frankly, was a bit unsettling the more it went on. And i t went on for a /while./

COFFIN: Virgin Killer heard Pinafore and she gripped the sweater in her bag. " I don't know how Pg a beheading is but she's gonna need more than pare ntal guidance after I'm done." She fumed.

Assless Chaps licked his sisters cheek,"Calm down. We should be fine. She's on bitch watch. We have biggerrr fish to frrrry." Mary Janes was hugging his boy, showing him all the toys Dzilla had go t him. Foxstole stretched and walked over to Pinafore, "You good?" The Tracer cosplayed rose a brow.

KURP: Luna sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose. Not only was a familiar face, that she didn't like, there but now the despot of the Abbey as w ell. "Listen," she began, getting up and putting herself in between Henley and Emperor Crown, "We're all here to have a good time. If you're here to pick fights, then kindly leave this place." Hot Pants nodded as he posed with Duster while taking pictures, "Somet hing felt more off about that particular girl, but that could just be me. You wanna go back and snag more merch?" Clearly he was ready to blow out his monthly funds. A small chuckle came out of Asmodeus as he turned around to Blazer, st ill playing with Boxer's hair. "What, I'm only fulfilling my role of being a good /boyfriend/. Now, i f he doesn't want me to be that, /he/ needs to tell me, otherwise I'm staying where I am. I want to hear it from him, only then I'll stop."

SOPHIE: Ruffles simply pulled out a spritz bottle and sprayed the maniac. "Bad . Stop it." She stated, holding the bottle sideways, as if it were a g un in an edgy Hollywood movie. Even though holding guns sideways is ve ry inefficient, and the same could be said about a spritz bottle, as g ravity is not on your side.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: Helmet slipped a banana peel and mcfucking fell on his back. He tried to get up but his ham costume made his arms and legs like little nubs so all he could do was roll around in a circle. "So, is there any specific you guys are looking for here? I can go get it if you want." Vest said, as his fake raccoon tail somehow waged wi th excitement. Listen, this con had lots of stuff he could steal but h e just didn't know to what to get next after that big haul earlier. Flat Cap scared a guy in a Courage the Cowardly Dog costume with a big green spooky mask, just like in the show.

KURP: "Huh?" Said shark man turned around to Ruka, trying to process the person tha t was speaking to him and then looked at himself. He quirked a brow in confusion. "Uuuh, thanks I guess? This isn't really a getup. This is how I look," he said simply, "Your costume is nice too?" Sukajan sighed as discourse almost immediately started up before he lo oked over to the source of a foul smell. Of course, it was Helmet, cov ered in rotting meat. He saw the man roll around and honestly? He wasn 't really going to help.

OMEGA: "Fine, besides a Emperor doesn't need to waste his time with fools." E mperor Crown said as he looks at Henley Shirt then walks over to fans of the Fate Series. He started to take pictures with them. Boxer went quiet. Raincoat is almost done shopping.

HITA: There was a twitch as VF smelled something tasty. Following its nose after politely waving to its superiors, the demon wandered towards a l arge crowd. Okay, so the tasty smell was kind of rank but that was fi ne. It was hungry, damn it. It hadn't eaten lunch yet and the though t of hunting a cult had its stomach rumbling. Turning its head, it lo oked over at Helmet and licked its lips a bit. There it was again! Hair twisting behind her, Brooch spun in place an d took a determined stride back to the large group she'd left. This f eeling of dread twisting her up had to be nefarious! How dare this vi llain she sensed be invisible to her justice seeking gaze?! So focuse d she was, she walked right by a creepily smiling Sailor Moon cosplaye r without noticing her hair curling in disgust.

YARANAIKA: Yaranaika's eyes twinkled merrily as she viewed those around her. Wha t pretty people! Her eyes locked onto Emperor Crown. What a big man! He clearly needed love! And affection! Rubbing her hands together in glee, she began to skip merrily to the man, a pigtail wrapping coyl y around his leg. "Hello! I love your cosplay!!"

FUJOSHI: The tiny terror found her way to a larger group of cosplayers and near ly squealed when she saw such a dashing white demon walking around. He was so handsome! Now, who would he be perfect with? She scanned the group and settled her bespectacled eyes on the yellow lady. She was clearly in a bad mood- she should gift her with this ha ndsome man!

Yellow Diamond was so done with this crowd! To lower herself to such a l evel and keep company with such fools- even if the beautiful Blue Diamon d was accompanying her. How she wished she could find some company worth y of her presence. The White Demon Prince had caught her eyes, his aqua hair that flowed li ke a waterfall down his back, and those large horns... He was so beautif ul- the most beautiful specimen of another species she had ever seen. The demon turned to face the lovely lemon beauty with interest, catching her eyes with his own cerulean orbs. He threw her a charming smirk to m ake her feel welcome, and it caused her to feel her face flush.

KURP: Asmodeus snapped out of his near trance-like state, looking around his surroundings confused. When and how did he get where he was, he remem bered that he was next to Boxer and Blazer. "What...Uh..."

OWLIE: "What the hell...?" Monocle shook his head and locked eyes with Polo, what is happening to him? "Are you okay?" Polo asked him. Monocle shrugged, he felt like someone just assumed his gender, and why the hell is his face red?

TOTALLY NOT DJ: "Wait, for real?" Ruka asked, taking off his helmet, revealing his dem on visage, and looked up and down at the shark man. "Oh, you must be o ne of those siren fucks, like Minishit."

KURP: Asmodeus squinted at the cosplay group before him. Especially those as Diamonds. "My, uh. The Diaminds certainly got smaller than what I remembered.... " "Mini-who?" Speedo tilted his head as he spoke, tapping his chin pensively. "But yes, I'm a Siren. Berzerker-Siren, rather..."

OMEGA: "Are you okay, Asmodeus?" Boxer ask as he looked at him a little confu se on what happen.

OWLIE: Monocle kept looking at the towering (understatement of the year) demo n before him. Polo began to get concerned over his fiance.

OMEGA: "Why thank you! Someone finally realize my beauty and grace!" EC said with a smile filled with pride. He loved when people compliment him. " But please continue to praise me for i am your Emperor! I come from a Bloodline of Kings!" He said as he getting some of his sin out.

BRIT: Duster looked down at the rolling ham in front of him with pity. "Hots, I think we should help him." He said in a sort of detached tone . Blazer watched as Asmodeus vaporized in front of them. Right in front of their salad. How rude. They blinked. "Uh. What." They said, looking at Boxer with a perplexed expression, " Asmo just disappeared."

OMEGA: "How did that happen?" Boxer ask as he looked at Blazer with confusion .

TOTALLY NOT DJ: "Hmmm, you're not inbred, are you?" Ruka asked, raising an eyebrow. "Keep rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling WHAT?! Keep rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling!" Helmet sang as he continued to roll.

COFFIN: Mary Janes watched everything going on and he nibbled a nugget. "The m itochondria is the powerhouse of the cell."

FUJOSHI: The giggling once again ensued at their confused expressions and Fujos hi began to write more:

"Who are you...?" Yellow Diamond asked with a demanding tone. It seemed to waver as the domineering white Prince walked up to her in long stride s. "I should ask you the same question, beautiful. Your eyes shine like dia monds, as does your glistening golden flesh." He spoke, taking her hand and kissing it gently with his plump lips. "Thanks." She spoke, covering one of her cheeks with her hand, "I am mad e of them."

KURP: Hot Pants made a face as he looked down at Helmet, cringing as the man sang. "I think he's fine, babe..." Speedo's eyes widened with shock and disgust, staring daggers into Ruk a for such a ridiculous question. "No," he said simply. As soon as Asmodeus snapped out of it again, he nearly began crying. "What the fuck!" He yelled, "Whoever's doing that better stop before I find you!"

OWLIE: "EXCUSE ME?" Polo said, he was clearly shooketh, he moved in front of Monocle and stared daggers at Asmodeus, "He's mine, buddy, back off" "Ooh, drama~" Cardigan said, finally breaking character as she took he r phone out and hit record.

KURP: "Oh don't flatter yourself!" Asmodeus began, "Your guy's cute but he's too broke for my tastes." "Asmodeus!" Luna harped, "Don't be rude!" "What? It's true!" He said.

OSCAR: As Gloves and Sapphire continues to walk, they spotted Helmet from afa r and seeing him rolling on the floor wearing a ham suit. They don't k now why he choose that cosplay but if Gloves remember correctly, this boy love hams, like, a lot. Plus, it's a little sad to see him rolling around over and over. So Gloves ask Sapphire to take off his Lucario paws and walk over to him to help him up. "Hey there Helmet." Gloves said, looking down. "Let me give you a hand ." He reach out his right hand to him.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: "Okay, good. Means you're not as much of a freak as him." Ruka said th en put the helmet back on. "So, have you had any luck finding the lost soul at all?" Helmet stopped rolling as Gloves approached him and offered his hand. He reached with his nub arm and grabbed his hand. "I thank you for you r aid, furry man!" He said as he was pulled up.

OSCAR: Gloves was feeling a little heart stab when Helmet say 'furry man', bu t at least he knows that this cosplay really took effect on covering h is whole body, including his face. "Actually..." He took off his 'Lucario Head' and reveal to Helmet. "It 's Gloves." He said. When he did that, he smell something funky in the air. He smell around at first, but the smell was coming to Helmet cos play. "Helmet. Are you wearing actual Ham?" He ask, looking confuse as fuck.

BRIT: "Beat us to it, then." Duster said, clearly not concerned. He pushed s ome of his hair back behind his shoulder. "That's an... Interesting co stume, Helmet." "Listen, if I knew how he did it I wouldn't be as concerned. We gotta find him before shit hits the fan." Blazer stated, turning to look aro und., "You can stay here and think about why you can't break up with t his jerk or something." They ran off. It couldn't be that hard to find a nearly 7-foot tall wh ite demon.

KURP: "No," he said, shaking his head, "At least not on the outside. Though that lion statue gives me some bad vibes..." "Didn't know Lady Googoo was relevant again," Hots added.

FUJOSHI: Time for more drama! Fujoshi adjusted her place in the crowd and had a sit on the floor, giggling madly. People around her began to make sur e to avoid her, and there was a very clear 5-foot radius around the yo ung girl who was feverishly writing in a notebook. She would write the perfect romance! If not for herself, then for everyone around them!

"My darling Diamond." The tall Prince spoke in his charming manner, "It' s apparent that maybe this should be a threesome? Clearly all you diamon ds would like me, the most beautiful Prince of Demons." He flipped his aqua waterfall strands in dramatic fashion and it mesmeri sed the diamonds. Yellow Diamond blushed violently. The Prince took her hand and pulled her roughly into his chest. There was a heat in the air between them! "I believe we should take this... To more private quarters, dear. Unless your friends would like to come!" Surely, this was going to be something so...

FUJOSHI: Fujoshi stopped writing and covered her face. "What am I doing! I can't write smut!" She screamed.

OMEGA: "Okay..." Boxer said as he look down and stay where he was. Though at least Raincoat was with him.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: "I am glad you think so, Ser Duster! I made from chunks of ham and oth er meats at the local butcher!" Helmet said proudly. "Well, I'll just go shoot it then if it-" Ruka began before hearing th e scream. He took a deep breath and exhaled. "Okay.....I think I know where the ghost is.....and I hope i'm fucking wrong. Let's go, Sharkba it." He then cocked the shotgun and headed the source of the scream. I s this shotgun gonna be effective against the lost soul. Probably not, but it's fucking cool.

KURP: Asmodeus pushed Monocle away in clear disgust. This was anything but c onsentual and he was actually starting to cry. "I can hear you!" He yelled, shaking his fist at the ceiling. His voic e lowered as his frustration grew. "And when I find whoever it is, I will tear them apart!" Speedo nodded and began following Ruka but stopped as the nickname was brought up. He sighed, looking almost defeated and decided to let the other demon do as he pleased. He just didn't feel like dealing with s omeone calling him Sharkbait, it was always impossible to get people t o stop calling him that once it started. He instead went in the opposite direction, getting stopped occasionall y for photos.

OWLIE: "W-what the fuck..." Monocle stammered, seemingly snapped back to his senses as Asmodeus pushed him away. He hid behind Polo, flustered as f uck. Polo, who looked murderous as he looked around the vicinity, grow led aggresively "I'm gonna fucking kill that ghost."

OSCAR: While Dress Socks and G-Strings was walking, like forever within the c on, they saw people that was getting a little crowded and bumping into each other. They try to squeeze out of there and one they did, they p op from the other side and see that everyone's like at least 5-foot ra dius away from the person that was sitting on the floor. But this pers on wasn't ordinary at all, but a Lost Soul. With Grin on their faces, they summon out their weapons and pointed at her. "Finally..." Dress Socks said in his Human Soul Disguise. "We finally found Lost Soul number 3." "Let's get her!" G-Strings shouted in her Human Maka Disguise.

COFFIN: Virgin Killer strayed away from the group she was in and decided to go look for the soul on her own. She summoned cavity and walked with it, stopping for pictures here and there. She bumped into Speedo and she squeaked. "Sorry! Are you okay? Pleasetellmeididntfuckupyourcosplay." She frantically checked him.

SAIYAN: Wristband had been watching Asmo like a hawk...until he decided to poo f on her. She gave a bit of a groan of frustration that he managed to lose her. She quickly ran around for a bit before she bumped into Blaz er. "Hey, have you seen Asmo at all? He just poofed on me and I don't want him causing a ruckus" she said, panting a bit from the sprinting she was doing.

HITA: Sidling closer, VF leaned closer to the ham clad Helmet, sniffing in i nterest. It leaned closer to tap on the man's shoulder, holding up a hastily scribbled note. 'Are you going to eat all that?' VF seemed far more interested in the man inside of the ham than should be necessary but at least it reigne d itself it. Even if it wasn't allowed, technically, to eat humans, i t also refused to waste all the ham. In the meantime it was a time for a Brooch Approach™!!! Brooch's hair twisted and she began to leap around just like her character would. She had heard G-Strings yell and like Hell was she letting a demon do this! Landing with a sort of inhuman grace she faced off against the demons and the... tiny... child? "Miss, I must insist you do desist! You can't just jam people togethe r like that!"

YARANAIKA: Despite the way Yaranaika was clinging to Emperor Crown with her hair, the crowd began to back away. What was happening? Why was her skin slowly turning black? The malevolent grin on her face split open and before their eyes she began to warp. "I think you'd be so sugoi with a nice lover!!" It was this moment when the girl twisted from a Senshi into what could only be called a creepy thing. "Te...ke...te...ke...." She twisted her head around, tongue still fir mly around Emperor Crown as he began to shrink. Eyes began to grow, h is muscle mass decreased, and he began to clearly display typical of f eminine people in yaois. "Te...ke! TEKEKEKE! KAWAII!!"

OSCAR: Dress Socks and G-Strings was surprise to see Brooch appearance out of the sky and land gracefully. They don't know her, but they're not let ting her to protect the Lost Soul. "Well Miss..." G-Strings said. "Sor ry to burst your bubble, but where here on an important mission and th at little 'child's' coming with us." "We don't want to hurt you, but if you going to protect her and interf ere us..." Dress Socks said as he weird up his Sabers. "When we're goi ng to have a little problem." Meanwhile, Gloves was right about the costume and feel a little gross out of the ham Cosplay. It's meant for eating, not wearing. With a sig h, he puts on his 'Lucario Helmet and look at Helmet. "Well...at least you like what you love." He said. Sapphire didn't say anything, but was making a gross out expression to Helmet.

OMEGA: "My Face! What did you do to my beauty and grace!" Emperor Crown said as he was now Uke-ified. "AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" He screamed as he looked horrible now.

KURP: Speedo held out his hands as if trying to asses the lady that just bum ped into him. "Huh? Oh no, I'm fine. Are you okay?" He noticed that she was holding a weapon-looking object and the color looked oddly like a Demon's. Maybe it actually was. He pointed to it. "I'm guessing you're also looking for that Lost Soul?"

BRIT: "Helmet. That's actually disgusting." Duster sighed. Blazer adjusted their footing before they were ploughed over by Wristb and and looked at her with slight aggravation before realizing who it was. "Yeah, he disappeared but... There's a lot of screaming coming from th at direction." They said, pointing in the direction of the ghost. Thei r finger drooped a little. "Oh."

COFFIN: Virgin Killer sighed in relief, "M-me? Yeah I'm fine no worries." She looked over at Cavity. "This old thing? Oh yeah, it's been fucking wit h the con goers. I take it you are too?" She tilted her pigtailed head . Mary Janes ran over to the girl and he say down next to her. He offere d her a chicken nugget. "Hiya! Mr. Ruka you're gonna scare her if you use those!"

TOTALLY NOT DJ: "I was going to, yes! But I am more than willing to share!" Helmet rep lied to VK after reading the note then turned to Duster. "That, Ser Du ster is not disgusting. What is disgusting.....is....uhhh......FRENCH CHEESE!" Someone help this man. Ruka pushed and shoved people his way through the crow of people, cuss ing as he did so, before coming to an open area where he saw Brooch, G -Strings, and Dress Socks. When he heard G-Strings mention a child, he turned to face the small girl sitting on the floor. So that's the lit tle shit they're looking for. He approached the girl and loomed over h er, shotgun in both hands. Flat Cap had been wandering the con for the few minutes, being stoned and scaring some folks and eventually came across EC caught in the ton gue of a ghost, transforming before his eyes. "Yoooooo.....Freaky shit e right there."

OMEGA: "What is that idiot doing?" Tank Top ask he points to Ruka who was loo ming over a small girl. Dress Shirt turn around to look at what Ruka w as going to do.

FUJOSHI: Fujo jumped at the accusations by others and adjusted her glasses to l ook up at Brooch with a small gasp. "M-miss? I-I'm sorry!! I'm just h-having some fun!" She squeaked and g ot up, flustered, "I-I gotta go!!" She turned to run and immediately encountered Ruka. She was shuddering , but she stopped and puffed out her cheeks in a pout. "Yara-sensei!!" She screamed to the ghost at the top of her lungs, "S- Super Henshin Transformation!" The small form of the Lost Soul was enveloped in a bright light and th ere was some kind of show going on- but everyone was too blinded to ac tually see it. It was safe to assume there was a fancy Sailor Moon-esq ue henshin. "Now you suckers are gonna get it!" She laughed. Her form had changed significantly to be a tall slender woman with long twintails, a pair o f cat ears, and a Senshi outfit.

BRIT: Duster shook his head at the inference made by Helmet and turned to th e entrance. "I want to look at that statue outside. It must be a new addition. Mig ht be a nice place to hold a photoshoot." He said, nudging Hot Pants.

KURP: Speedo nodded at Virgin Killer. "Yeah. It was in the work email at the office. Might as well do what I 'm told considering I just got here. Don't want to lose my job." He noticed that there was screaming and people running from just behin d Virgin Killer and pointed in that direction. "I'm guessing we know where to look..." Asmodeus was getting ready to maim the Lost Soul, but was promptly sto pped by Luna by shoving over her prop staff at him as she had summoned her weapon. "Take Strappon someone safe, Sukajan and I will keep the perimeter cle ar!" "Ugh, fine. Make sure her death is agonizing if anything," Asmodeus sa id as he took Strappon along. Hot Pants squinted at the scene that played out before him, squinting at it as it went on. He looked at Duster, then back at the scene, then back to Duster with a heavy sigh. Taking his boyfriend's hand, he tug ged at him to follow. "Yeah let's just go. I came here to have a nice con experience and I'm gonna fucking have it so I don't feel like looking at the fucking gho sts or whatever right now."

JAY: Ribbon was running drastically late, but to be fair, it was only becau se she had no idea how to navigate the area around the abbey that they had taken up residence in. She was clad in a rather well-kept black d ress suit and skirt, with brown short hair. Definitely just a disguise and not a dumb cosplay. Especially not a dumb cosplay of a Korean mob ile dating sim. In any case, she had finally managed to get to the convention, coffee in-hand, as she looked around for familiar faces around the entrance. She couldn't remember any of the Angels she had seen around the abbey.

YARANAIKA: "Te...ke...?" Twisting around almost more unnaturally than the way sh e'd shifted before, Yaranaika's eyes on the side of her head zeroed in on the mess with her OTP bestie. She giggled maliciously as she race d forward. Imagine an enraged Winston but a Teke-Teke and there's som ething you never want to see again. Her tongue lashed out, catching G loves in its slimy grip. The slobber covering the poor boy soaked int o his fursuit and into his skin, shifting him into a grossly vile warp ing of himself. "Tekekekeke!! Coming, Fujo-chan!!" A large hand reached forward and grasped Ruka by the leg, tossing him up and then smashing him under a large, meaty paw. "How kawaii you are, Fujo-chan!!" The demon in her grasp was facing a harsh transformation himself, incapable of fightin g the change overcoming him. "Tekeke! I can't believe you all tried that!" Picking up Ruka in her grasp, she threw him at the pair that had confronted her friend initi ally, allowing him to slam into the floor before Dress Socks and G-Str ings. There was an almost sick thud as Ruka hit the floor even as she dropped Gloves from her tongue's grasp. "Tekekekeke!!!"

FUJOSHI: Fujoshi's smile widened as she began to whip around the con, flying wi th the translucent wings on her back. "Oh, how sad! Poor little Ruka has been battered to the ground!" She w hined, "But he will get up and he will find his next Uke sugoi boy!" She swept down and gave Dress Socks a hard hit to the head.

OMEGA: "The Ghost!" Father Crucifix said as he gets out his weapon. "Boxer! R aincoat! Time to fight!" He command as Boxer and Raincoat summoned the ir weapons. Raincoat took cover and started to shoot at Yaranaika from a far raining bullets on her. Boxer and Father Crucifix come charging in at the Ghost sending slashes with a mix of punches. Dress Shirt grabbed Tank Top's arm and spin him around and around then sending flying at the Lost Soul with his weapon out. "Time cut you up ! Sailor Girl!" Tank Top said as he slashes at her with a wild smile o n his face. Dress Shit summon his weapon and started to fire at her.

COFFIN: Dzilla runs over with Mary to attack Fujoshi. Mary trips on his dress and he tumbles over gracefully. Dzilla lands a decent hit with her axe s. Foxstole lazily throws her naginata and slashes her cheek. She yawns a nd grabs her weapon as it returns to her. "Booooring."

TOTALLY NOT DJ: "Motherfuck...." Ruka grumbled as he got up on his feet then growled w hen he overheard Fujoshi. "I'm gonna Uke sugoi YOUR FUCKING FACE!" He shouted, not noticing or caring much about his enlarged body and small er head then grabbed the shotgun, firing it at Yaranaika as payback fo r slamming him into the ground even though it didn't effect her before summoning his chained blades and slashed at Fujoshi as she flew in th e air. Flat Cap meanwhile just unloaded his gun at Yaranaika cause he only no w realized that the ghost wasn't just him being high as a fucking kite .

OSCAR: Gloves was surprise to get attack by the ghost and can feel the slim o nto his skin from her long tongue, eww. "AH SICK!" He said. Without kn owing, she turn him into a grossly vile and feel so weak and the boy's upset that the ghost did this to him. Once release with tears within his mask, he summons his namesakes, run s over to her and give the ghost a punch at the face. "IT COST $300 DO LLARS, YOU GHOST!" He shouted, upsettingly. Sapphire was surprise to see Gloves taken by the ghost and made his co stume cover in her saliva. How dare she. As she summon her namesake in to a Glaive, she runs over to the ghost and slash her left arm. As Dress Sock and G-Strings see Ruka flying by Yaranaika's strength an d it was coming at them. Both of them got hit and when Dress Socks was going to stand, Fujoshi hit his head hard. It hurt like hell, but he was piss now. As his eyes was glowing in gold and growl angrily, he sl ash Fujoshi with his Sabers at her guts. "DON'T MESS WITH ME!" He shou ted. As G-Strings gets up, she throws her Big Shuriken at Fujoshi, but it m ade a grain on her right arm.

BRIT: Duster was posing with Hot Pants in front of the large draconic statue . People were going wild over their costumes, and the fact that Duster was already a well-known model anyway. Blazer made their way all the way to the Ghost scene and spun their sw ord off their back- in classic RPG Hero Fashion. A few pictures were s napped from frightened, yet intrigued, onlookers. "Alright, Fucker-- Shit, there's a Lost Soul, too. How the fuck do we deal with those again??" They asked, very confused suddenly.

FUJOSHI: Fujoshi screamed from the hit she took and turned to the crowd, much a ngrier! "That's it!" She yelled, "I'mma do the dance!" She summoned a wand that looked definitely like a cosplay prop and beg an doing a dance. She weaved and spun in a dance only classic RPG Fans might have been familiar with- seemed like a ripoff, but it was enoug h to make any fan cry tears of blood. It was incredibly mesmerizing.. . To the point where onlookers would be transfixed on it!

EMI: Nightshirt was minding his own damn business despite the boring battle s going on. He was sitting on a bench in front of a huge lion statue t hat seemed to have gotten a lot of attention before the Ghost and Soul attacked. He scratched his head, seemingly uneffected by all the shit going on. He looked back at the "statue" that just flicked it's tail and he blinked.

KURP: Hot Pants felt a sinister presence beginning to loom by. It almost fel t like it was his aunt and snapped his head behind him only to see the statue's tail suddenly move. He turned around completely, getting a s inking feeling in his stomach.

SAIYAN: Wristband looked over at all of the screaming that was going on and qu ickly saw the reason for the panic. "Oh, so that's what's going on" she said before sighing. Why couldn't they have anything cool going on that doesn't have ghosts involved.

OMEGA: Tank Top dropped his weapon as his eyes started to cry tears of blood. "MY EYES!" Tank Top shouted as the dance was causing his eyes to blee d. "I got your Brother!" Dress Shirt said as he sends a Hell of Bullet s at the Lost Soul.

YARANAIKA: Screeching violently, Yaranaika spun about, charging at Raincoat. How dare she??!!?! She lifted a hand and slammed onto the ground Rainc oat launched into the air and the ghost used her to climb up and into the rafters, letting drool drip onto the floor. She hissed down at ev eryone and then dropped down. She staggered, slamming the ground with massive fists and trying to startle the rest.

JAY: Ribbon's directionless meandering was brought to a halt quickly when s he heard loud screaming and other various noises from deeper in the co nvention center. She quickly started to make her way towards all the l oud noise. "Geez, guys, already find the ghost?"

BRIT: Duster heard the minute sounds of something moving behind them and his head snapped around. His complexion would have paled further had he n ot been wearing greyish-white makeup. "The... Statue is moving?" He asked.

OSCAR: As Dress Socks and G-Strings was about to attack Fujoshi, the light wa s hitting on them by her and it's hurting their eyes. It hurt so much that it start tearing in blood. "OWOWOWOWOW!" G-Strings shouted, painf ully. Dress Socks was hurting also and his tears starting to bleed also, yet , his demonic pride won't get the best of him as he throws his right S aber hard at her left leg. Gloves and Sapphire was planning on their next attack at Yaranaika, bu t both of them didn't land a hit as the Ghost slamming the ground, cau sing the ground to shake and made them fall to the ground.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: "Gah, fuck!" Ruka shouted, gritting his teeth as he began to tear in b lood but managed to shrug it off and landed another hit on Fujoshi's a bdomen. Flat Cap fell his ass but to managed to keep rooting, tooting, and sho oting at Yaranaika despite his fall, turning the ghost into swiss chee se.

KURP: Hot Pants stared at the statue in silence as he got closer to Duster, embracing the man's waist. "Dude, I think it did. I just saw the tail move..."

COFFIN: Virgin Killer noticed her fiance and she ran over,"Babe! Took ya long enough!" She kissed her cheek. "Never a dull moment huh?" Assless Chaps readied his Harlots and he stretched. "This should be fu n." Dzilla held up her screaming grandson like Simba. They were both bleed ing. Vampire Collar was pretty cool with it, just meant more for his sippy cup. He's so licking Jong's face. Yummy. Foxstole wiped her eyes and noped out to the statue.

OMEGA: "Raincoat! Boxer!" Father Crucifix said as he wipes the blood from his lip as he look at the Ghost. "Yes Sir!" They said as they looked at h im. "Time to finish this!" He said as he charges at the Ghost head on first. He was slashing the Ghost up like no tomorrow. Next was Raincoa t who came close up to the Ghost unloading every shell on to her. Fina lly, there was Boxer who could feel the power of the North Star callin g to him as his ripped off and then... "ATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATA TATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATA TATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATA TATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATA T!!!" Boxer shouted as he hits the Ghost in every press-point then tur n his back and started to walk. Though once he got a few distance away he turn around and point to her recreating the most iconic moment in anime history. __"Omae Wa Mo Shindeiru"__

OSCAR: As Dress Socks and G-Strings look at Fujoshi with fierce in their tear bloody eyes, they going to corrupt this ghost once and for all. As G- Strings took out another Big Shuriken, both of them throw their weapon at her. Dress Socks Left Saber hit her chest and G-Strings hit her at the forehead. "BULLS EYE!" Dress Socks and G-Strings said.

JAY: Ribbon chuckled as Virgin came up to her and smooched her cheek, a war m smile almost immediately coming to her face. "Aw, good to see you, t oo! And, yeah, I can't leave you guys alone for five minutes, can I?" Ribbon summoned Stripper and turned to face the Lost Soul. "Now, what the hell is going on?"

TOTALLY NOT DJ: Helmet suddenly sat up in front of Ribbon and turned to face her. "Wha t is happening.....is Beans!" With that, Helmet laid back down and beg an rolling while singing Rollin' by Limp Bizkit again before hitting a booth, causing the whole thing to fall on top of him.

OSCAR: As Gloves and Sapphire got off the ground, they went over towards Yara naika and hit the ghost with their namesakes. Gloves punch her face on ce more while Sapphire thrust her chest with her glaive.

KURP: Speedo was about to start greeting Ribbon, seeing that Virgin Killer n ow had a companion before stopping himself as Helmet came in. He didn' t say anything, he just watched as he felt his soul leave his body. Th e smell of flesh beginning to give him a headache. Someone help him.

COFFIN: Virgin snickered and she gripped Cavity. "Fuck have I missed you.~" S he gave it a twirl. "We had two weebs now we got one weeb. Also, I met a cutie~!" She smirked and pointed to Speedo. Assless gulped. "Wow that's one hot piece of sushi."

BRIT: Duster squinted at the statue and pulled his namesake out of his bag, moving aside a few of the ferrets he had brought with him and turning it into Blood-Coated. He very carefully extended it to poke the statue .

JAY: Ribbon turns her head to nod a short, silent greeting to Speedo, while beginning to swing her whip around in her hand. Her head turned back towards the Lost Soul, the demon deciding to boldly leap for her and s end Stripper right into her face. Unfortunately, she totally missed, a nd instead jumped right past her.

KURP: "I'll pretend I didn't hear that..." Speedo muttered as he returned Ri bbon's gesture before she went off. They had this covered so he felt n o need to actually participate. Hot Pants took Duster's bag, making sure the ferrets inside were still there, stuffing in the few that were wiggling out. He took a step bac k, moving behind Duster. If this was anything serious, he knew he was dead, he didn't have a weapon on him. "Be careful babe..." He said.

FUJOSHI: Fujoshi had finished her dance, skillfully dodging until she was able to finish and bow. Of course, it was at that point someone hit her dea d center and she went tumbling backward. "You're all so rude!!" She yelled, rushing at as many of them as possi ble and doing some kind of pirouette spin-kick! Ouch! She then made a break for it, running out of the convention center to try and escape. Her threads started to unravel and she turned dramatic ally toward her opponents. "Y-You!! You meanies!" She squealed, obviously starting to bawl like a child.

KURP: The statue suddenly came to life...because it wasn't a statue to begin with. The statue was none other than the Teostra that wasn't captured months prior to this event. It didn't appreciate being poked by some sharp object and swiped at Du ster. Not aggressively to attack, but to keep distance between the two , a warning swipe. It got up soon after that, its attention being caught by the distresse d squealing of a spirit. With a roar it lunged towards Fujoshi and cau ght her between its paws. Without hesitation, it just gulped her down whole. Hot Pants looked on in horror as he clutched the bag harder. "I'm going to stay in the car," he said. "I knew there was something up with that statue," Speedo said, crossin g his arms.

YARANAIKA: Yaranaika made a lot of noise suddenly. It was something like out of a horror movie. "TEKETEKE--- N-N-NANIIIIII!?!?!?!" She screamed, twisting and turning and writhing. In a fit of rage, the ghost went scampering toward Glove s and Sapphire, making an awful hissing noise. She stopped suddenly, as if she had hit a glass wall, and exploded in a powerful scream. "MY OTP!!!!" She yelled before she blasted into bits.

EMI: Nightshirt floated behind Teostra, holding his hands over his mouth. "Oops. My bad." He mumbled. "Welp, that's enough excitement for me tod ay." He looked at his ringing phone and disappeared in a puff of fire.

BRIT: Duster had backed up quickly to avoid getting swat into the air and lo oked on in mild horror as the dragon devoured the Lost Soul that had b een slowly becoming a ghost- it caused a mild explosion within Teostra 's mouth, but all that was left was a little smoke. "God, why... Where did this thing come from?" He asked through gritted teeth. "Shit..." Blazer grumbled under their breath.

COFFIN: Assless Chaps blinked and walked to the Teostra. "That's a big big bab y." Virgin stretched and her tail moved about, she leaned on Cavity. "A ve ry big baby." Mary Janes yeeted outside and screamed puppy.

OSCAR: As Gloves and Sapphire see Yaranaika exploded, it made Gloves feel not weak anymore and was back to normal. Yet now, he's angry than before for having that slime on his cosplay 'Lucario Suit'. "Aw man! Look at my cosplay! IT'S RUINED!" He shouted, angrily. "$300 wasted." Sapphire give light pats to Gloves back for his cosplay being ruined. "Well...at least we get to live another day." She said. Gloves didn't say anything, but feeling shame. When they heard a big pound on the ground, they turn their heads at th e big Teostra and made them fear from seeing it eat a Lost Soul. "What the fuck!" Gloves said, shockingly. As Dress and G-Strings was about to capture the Lost Soul, it was gull ible up by Teostra and maaaan it's a big one. Both of them immediately jaw drop at the sight and who knew it can eat Lost Souls.

TOTALLY NOT DJ: After watching Fujo get mcfucking eaten, Ruka decided he had enough of cons for one day. He changed his blades back and walked over to Vest who was hiding in a booth that got wrecked from the fight. "Let's go, Kleptofuck. I wanna go home." He said, grabbing Vest by the collar of his shirt and dragging him out the convention center. "I don't wanna go though. There's still merch I wanna get, plus Pocket Watch is here!" Vest whined. "You can suck his dick after you drop me off at the house." Ruka said as he tossed Vest into the driver's seat and got into the passenger se at.

KURP: Before Hot Pants actually left, he called out, "Oi, that's the cat fuc k we needed to catch a few months back! Stay away, the fire permanentl y damages Soul Threads!" As if on cue, Toestra spread its wing and flew a few feet off the grou nd, breathing its fire to disperse everyone that had gathered around i t. It then quickly flew off to God knows where. Probably to have anoth er sit without being poked at, maybe.

OMEGA: "Fist of the North Star is the Father of all manly anime." Boxer said as he grab his bag filled with anime figures and arts. He walked back to his Raincoat and Father Crucifix with a smile on his face. Dress Shirt picked up Tank Top and started to head out of the conventi on. "Are we going home?" Tank Top ask as he breathes heavily. "Yes." D ress Shirt said as he helps his Brother out.

JAY: Ribbon was left alone by the Lost Soul, who simply ran right out, inst ead of standing to fight. This left the demon rather confused, and may be a bit embarrassed, considering she had just been so dramatic about attacking. She looked back towards Virgin Killer with a nervous smile.

BRIT: Strappon's struggle to release himself from Asmodeus' tittygrip came t o fruition as he was finally free. He ran to the Angels as fast as he possibly could, away from the Demon Prince. "Oh, thank Heavens. Good job, Angels." He panted, giving them all a th umbs-up, "Though, I wish we could have repented the Lost Soul peaceful ly..." "Yeah. Manly anime." Blazer said, adjusting their costume with a huff and turning to Boxer. "Too bad you don't have the balls those protags have to break up with your goddamn abuser. I really suggest you figure out the words you gotta say, because your life is gonna be hella wors e if you say nothing."

COFFIN: Virgin Killer giggled and she hugged Ribbon close to her hip from behi nd. "Nice going my little cherry.~"

JAY: Ribbon smiled sheepishly, her face a slightly lighter tinge of red tha n normal. "Eheheh... I just kinda went on reflexes there, but are we a ctually even going to bother fighting? Since we, you know. Kinda aren' t with Hell Corp, at the moment?"

OSCAR: Hearing Hot Pants warning, Gloves, Sapphire, Dress Socks, and G-String s was getting away from the Fire from Teostra as fast as possible beca use in no way in gods hell they want their cosplay to burn. It's too e xpensive! As they did, they see Teostra escape. "We need to capture it." Dress Socks and G-Strings said, in sync. Gloves and Sapphire painted and hear Strappon saying. "Same...here." G loves said.

SAIYAN: "Good job guys!" Undershirt said as he hopped down from the top of a m erchandise stand he was using to watch the fight. Tuxedo Jacket too came out of the woodworks to gather around with the rest of the angels. Wristband finally managed to catch up with Asmo after trying to chase him down after so long, feelsgoodman!

OMEGA: "Yeah, i didn't want to say it today but I will say it maybe later or tomorrow." Boxer said with a smile as he looks at Blazer. "I am just g lad that i got to do the one "Omae Wa Mo Shindeiru"technique on the Gh ost!" He said as he looks at Blazer.

KURP: Asmodeus tailed closely behind Strappon, looking almost offended, "Lis ten, if you're not into vanilla, you could have just said so. Were you not taught manners?" He was holding a sundae of sorts. "Or you could say you're not into the whole being fed deal. Dear mothe r of mine, you people are shit at communication..." He said, shaking h is head. He then turned around and gave his ice cream to Wristband. "There, I lost my appetite."

COFFIN: Virgin Killer shrugged and she kissed her shoulder. "I mean, if we don 't need to I don't see why we are. Though the work out is pretty nice. " Assless Chaps returned with a funnel cake shaped like a dick. "What ex actly did I miss herrre?" He poked Asmodeus.

SAIYAN: "Thanks, I guess" Wristband said as she grabbed the ice cream and bega n to lick it. It tasted great, even more so because she was so done wi th this job of babysitting this demon all day. She deserved a treat fo r sure.

BRIT: Blazer's mouth formed a tight line at Boxer's response and let out a h eavy sigh. "Kids will be kids." They said, "Whatevs." Strappon shuddered slightly and jabbed an elbow backward into Asmo's g ut. "Give me a damn warning, heathen." He hissed.

JAY: Ribbon nodded and leaned back into Virgin's arms, sighing gently. "Wel l, that's a relief, at least. I didn't really feel up to fighting with a ghost or lost soul today. Chilling at the abbey has been... Well, m aybe more necessary than I thought."

COFFIN: Virgin kissed at her neck. "I mean, if it'll help the angels out a lit tle I don't see why not? But yeah, it's..weird."

OMEGA: "Well then shall we continue on with the Convection guys?" Raincoat as k as he looked at Boxer, Father Crucifix, and Emperor Crown. "Sure!" B oxer said as he was excited to continue with a smile on his face. "Tha t would be lovely." Father Crucifix said with a smile on his face too. "I guess." Emperor Crown said as cracks his neck.

The Angels were able to continue their con-going antics with significant ly more ease knowing the Ghost had been repented. They were given praise by the congoers and were even awarded with free merchandise! In the distance, there was a dark figure holding the Banshee Threads fro m the corrupted Fujoshi. He held up the thread as it writhed in his han d and let it go, letting it drift in the wind. "Weakling." He said simply, turning back and leaving wordlessly.

Relief

I've been very stressed out these last couple months. When I arrived at my summer stock job I knew I had to make plans for the fall. I basically left my old job with all of my possessions and moved into a dorm for the summer. I had no job or apartment lined up. My eyes were glued to Philly Artist Housing. I applied to several SM jobs that fit my time line as I saw them and heard back from zero.

It wasn't until mid July when I realized how much trouble I was in. I couldn't afford to move back to Indiana and I didn't feel comfortable staying with my aunt and cousins until I had something lined up. I knew they would take me in regardless, but when I moved in with them the first time I couldn't stand it.

My first saving grace came from a Facebook post on the housing group my current roommate posted. It was affordable, in near public transportation and nice enough. I Skyped with her we hit it off and she said we wanted to live with me.

Apartment check.

Next came the job. I sent out applications everywhere at that point. Office jobs I had no experience in and other places. Crickets. At the end of my summer stock gig I had to buck it up and move in with my aunt and cousins for a little over two weeks until my new apartment was ready. It was easier to ask them because it was short term. Unfortunately with no new income coming in, I blew through my saving to prep for my move

I still had hope. I applied to temp jobs. Got one call, but it was too far away. Then I applied to be a usher at a college venue in Center City. It sounded flexible and it was something I've done before. I heard back within a couple days. Not only that but my resume was forwarded to the Box Office for another better paid position I scheduled an interview with the Box Office first be cause hiring that position was more important since it was a supervisor job.

The day I scheduled my interview I saw a post for an assistant to the stage manger position at one of the biggest theatres in the city (I'm talking LORT C if you know what I mean). I'm hesitant at first, but applied anyway because I didn't want to put all my eggs in one basket. It was right up my alley and basically the perfect foot in the door gig. But if I get the Box Office position, I couldn't do both.

I interviewed for the Box Office job. It went well. The pay was great and it was steady. Unfortunately I wouldn't fit much stage management in it let alone the ASM job I applied for. It was one of those career changing moments. And I asked God if this was the path he wanted me to take.

A couple days later I found I didn't get the job. That day however I followed up with the Usher Job and scheduled an interview and was asked to interview for the Assistant to the stage manager job. If that wasn't a sign I don't know what is.

I interviewed for the Usher Job later that week. I was offered it on the spot. The pay was half as much as the Box Office job but the hours were flexible for me to find something else.

At this point however I'm a little freaked out. Like I said earlier, no income was coming in and after rent and other necessities my money was dwindling fast. (I didn't account for buying a bed). My usher job wasn't going to pay the rent and if I didn't get the ASM gig, I would be scrambling to make next month's rent payment. I put all my energy into my next interview. I studied, I prayed, I researched interview techniques. I needed this job to make ends meet.

I interviewed with the PM last week. I was cool nd professional. She was impressed by my SM credits. I felt good after the interview. I would know by next week. The weekend passes. In completely on edge. I didn't have a backup. I planned on applying to some restaurants nearby, but I really wanted this job. Monday I get an email. The PM would like to schedule a second interview with me and the SM on Wednesday.

I freak the fuck out.

I was so close. I prepare like a mad woman. At this point I am at high stress levels and nervous. I had to impress this SM with my professionalism and personality. Wednesday rolls along. I get into the interview and I crushed it. I answered the questions professionally and prepared several of my own. I did my part, I left the rest to God.

I get home knowing I'd find out by tomorrow. I send a thank you note to the PM and asked her to send a thanks to the SM as well. I decided to distract myself with Netflix. Hours later my phone buzzed. It was an email from my mother asking me about the Sunday school book she put in my care package. I reply quickly. after I pressed send my phone buzzed again. Reply to my thank you note.

I got the job.

I screamed. I cried. I called my mother.

For the first time in two months I could breathe. I'm not trying to get preachy, but sometimes God works in mysterious ways. Sometimes God works in very obvious signs. I put in as much hard work as can and the second it's out of my hands I leave the rest to God. I know many of my friends have different beliefs and I'm still figuring out mine, but I find comfort in knowing someone in the universe is looking out for me.

I start my new job next week. The gig is through December so I'm going to try to save up to go home for Christmas and look for another gig in January.

But for now, I can finally sigh in relief.

#personal #sorry this is so long #also i didn't mean for this to get religious but i felt like i needed to be honest

If you have a daughter make sure she READS THIS Please share with every youth you know, please! My name is Chinwe. I am 26 years old. I never graduated from d university, simply bcoz I was stupid and careless. On my 24th birthday, I received a nice gift. It was a blackberry phone. I always wanted one. It was like a right of passage. My ex-boyfriend got it for me. He was a student like me, didn’t have a job, and I really never cared to ask as he could afford it. My concern at that point was 'yes I had finally arrived.' Other girls in my hostel had blackberries and I would always get pissed when I heard sounds of pings and messages coming into their phones at all hours and I would stare at my nokia phone and wish I could throw it away, but half bread they say is better than none. So I hoped and even fasted to get a blackberry phone. Looking back now, if I had the opportunity, I’d have a landline with no internet activity what so ever. Anyway I got the blackberry phone and even got free BIS subscription. At that moment my life was complete. No more going to the cyber cafes to check my emails, my face-book or twitter. I had it all at my finger tips. Life indeed was complete, or so I thought. Anyway, I became addicted to my blackberry and also my social media applications, and since I had constant access, I quickly gained enough followers, and especially guys, mostly because I had a lot of erotic pictures on my timeline. I was popular. Finally, I felt I was the main girl. Everyone wanted to follow me. I didn’t care if it was virtual. It felt good, checking out my profile and having well over 8,000 followers, more than half of which were guys, but one particular guy caught my attention. Till this day, I don’t know what made him stand out, but we got chatty. He sent me direct messages and I replied. He was quite a gentleman, and I can’t remember him ever asking for nude pictures unlike the rest of them. So this made me comfortable with him. His name was Tobi. He said he was a doctor. I didn’t have any cause to doubt him. He had extensive knowledge and even gave me some medical advice from time to time. We eventually moved from twitter to blackberry chat; we chatted all the time. I got so comfortable with him. I gave him my number, and that would come to be the biggest mistake I ever made. Tobi called me every day. Some days, he called more than once. At night he would call and I would lay on my bed and have phone sex with him. His voice was so soothing. He made me do things I never thought possible. He had gained so much access into my head. I realized later I had done some very sick and twisted things just to please him. I would take nude pictures of myself. I would send him videos of me touching myself in private, and send him voice notes of me making moaning sounds and simulating orgasms, and all this while we had not met, not face to face at least. Eventually I played into his hands. I began pestering to meet him in person. At this point I had lost my mind. I assumed I was in love with him, and when my boyfriend at the time broke up with me, I really welcomed it, for me it meant no more sneaking around. Tobi eventually agreed to come to Lagos to meet me, all this while he had made me to believe he was in Calabar, and would take time off work to spend a weekend with me in Lagos. When I heard this, I was excited. He told me to book a reservation for him, stating he would pay me back as soon as he arrived and also he said it would make him more committed to the visit and would convince him of my seriousness. I bought it all. He was smart. He was cunning, and I was stupid! Oh how stupid I was. The funny thing was I had sent him tons of pictures, and all I had was just one picture of him, and whenever I asked, he would claim he wanted to be sure I loved him for him, and not for his looks, and sheepishly I would try to convince him of my undying love, and would try to appease him with nude pictures of my body. He eventually made it to Lagos. I met him at the hotel. He was tall, handsome a nd had a wonderful smile. He made love to me over and over, and convinced me to spend the night with him. I told him I couldn’t, because I had a test the next morning. Now at this point, I don’t know what triggered his anger; don’t know if it was because I couldn’t spend the night, or maybe I said something else I can’t remember saying, but whatever it was, brought out a very ugly side of him. He called me foul names, and kept going on and on about how he always knew I was cheap, and he knew I was sleeping with other men. The same man whom had swept me away, slammed me on the floor. He told me of how he had shown his friends all my nude pictures and how they had watched the videos and listened to the voice notes, he told me he had made a bet with his friends, that I would actually pay for him to have sex with me, just to prove how stupid I was. Well you can imagine how I felt. I was confused and shocked, but I attempted to regain any little dignity I had left, and so I tried to mouth off at him. Suddenly he punched me in the face, and I tripped over, and hit my head on a stool. The next thing I remembered was waking up on the bed. I was tied up, and he was staring at me. His eyes were dark and he had a sinister smile on his lips. He stood up and walked towards me. I tried to scream and realized my mouth was tapped. My head was racing. The unfortunate part was that no one knew where I was. He turned me over, and told me he was going to teach me a lesson. At this point I was naked. He raped me from behind, and I mean my anus. The pain was mind blowing. I struggled, and he hit me. When he was done, he brought out a small blade, and he looked at me for a minute and said, this scare is going to always serve as a reminder, for girls like you always trying to be more than you are;for stupid fools like you. He put the blade to my nipple and cut it off, and anytime I think of it, I still feel the pain. It was like nothing I had ever felt before. He was calm, like he had done it a million times. I could feel the warm blood dripping down my mutilated breast. Tears of fear and pain running down my face, and suddenly he turned around again, this time all I saw was a flash. I don’t know how I survived it, but I woke up in a hospital days after. Well I was awake, but my eyes were swollen shut. It took a couple of days for me to open my one good eye, and realize d damage he had done, he had plucked out my eye, and cut my face. He had cut my breasts up real bad, they had to cut it out, like I had cancer or something. There was no record of who I was, coz he had taken everything. He had taken my bag, containing everything I had. I was able to tell the nurses about what I could remember, and also give them my mum’s phone number. The hospital felt so much pity. They actually treated me for free. Hard to believe right? Anyway I was taken home after weeks at the hospital to recuperate. It was tough! I was blind in one eye. I had one breast and a hideous scar of my face. Talk about your sinage, he did a number on me. How dumb was I! sometimes I wish he had killed me, but there are fates worse than death, and I guess this is one of them. He was gone without a trace. The receipt from the hotel was in my name, so yes he had played me from the start. I didn’t dare go back to school. I was sure everyone would have heard, and I was not going to become a statistic, so I decided to stay home, and mind my business, besides what do I need an education for? I’d rather stay home, because there is no rising from this. There is no happy ending to this story. This is the simple ending: I was a victim of a sexual predator, and I let him into my life, period! And I take full responsibility for that. I was driven by greed and lack of morals. I allowed myself fall into an abyss, but well saying all this doesn’t change anything. It’s a memory I will have to live with for the rest of my life. Well not a memory, because I look at myself in the mirror everyday. Who would want to see a nude picture of a woman with one breast, one eye, and a stub. I have decided to publish my story, because with the rise of social media atrocities being committed, every story can go a long way in saving a life. So while you read, SHARE and help someone back to the right path............ If you have a daughter, make sure she READS THIS. Please share this with everyone you have on your contact. True life!

Next Gen eCom Review

Next Gen eCom Review (Tanner Planes Course)

Next Gen eCom is Tanner Planes’ second eCommerce course, and builds on his first course, Zero To One Thousand, which you can still purchase. Our topic at hand costs $497, but is the content really worth the asking price?

Today, we’re going to find out whether or not this is among the best courses today or if you can find a better alternative.

The course markets as a steps training with blueprints on the different strategies used by Tanner and his apprentices on their stores. Due to that, the course is mostly a recommendation of different strategies and apps.

Who’s the author?

Tanner Planes is a young entrepreneur from the US, who’s barely 17 years old. He found success in eCommerce, and he’s built on it by opening a YouTube channel to share content with his audience. This channel focuses around online business, with an emphasis on eCommerce.

Tanner started with the Vine platform and affiliate marketing. After Vine closed, Tanner moved on to Instagram, where he did the same as in Vine.

However, he started building stores in 2017, and he used his YouTube channel to document the progress. His channel is quite big, nearing to the 90,000 subscribers mark, and his content is your standard tutorials, how to’s, recommendations, and different strategies to specific goals.

Tanner’s Instagram is also quite big, with well over 50,000 followers. He uses this platform as more of a personal account; he updates his followers on his business life.

About Next Gen eCom

Next Gen eCom is a 15-module program covering the fundamentals of building and growing an online store, and it also provides more advanced methods for marketing your business.

The course is available on Teachables, where you can both buy and access the content at your leisure. You can watch all the videos on high quality in any device, and it’s a very responsive streaming-only platform.

Reviewing Next Gen eCom

Each section focuses on a single topic related to running an eCommerce venture. Modules contain different videos explaining the topic mentioned in the title, and the average is between 3 and 6 lessons.

There are also extra slideshows for each section for viewing the same content as text. Some of you might not use it, but it’s a nice addition.

Mindset

It’s just your intro with 2 videos: a 57-second intro to the program and 18 seconds on how to enter the private group.

Dropshipping basics

The next module is 3 videos, and it explains what dropshipping is. Most of you already know this, though.

However, it has interesting insight on automating orders and a store’s framework.

Product research

The 3rd module introduces you to researching products and niches.

You learn the differences between niche and general stores to know which one you should start. After that, you learn how to research your products with influencers, FB Ads, and other Shopify stores.

Images and descriptions

Next up, it teaches you about the importance of collections and how you add your items to your store.

There’s a 2nd video on how you want your descriptions to look and how to imitate that sample into your offers.

Recommended apps

Tanner introduces you to the Shopify apps used by him and his students for increasing conversions and collecting data from customers.

You get 4 apps here, ranging from Bold Upsell to Trust Badges. You also learn why you want to integrate them and what they do.

Backend

This module aims to set your sales on autopilot, reducing the required time and effort you need to put. It starts off with email marketing and what dropshippers usually do wrong with it.

He also recommends Klaviyo for improving your conversions before explaining the email types you should use. He and Parek Basnet recommend welcomes, abandoned cart, and purchase emails.

It also touches on segmenting and manual campaigns.

Branding

The 7th module talks about branding your store before launching, and it touches on setting up a good logo and creating different social platforms.

There’s a video on how to add posts and work on your engagement to boost trust and another one on design optimization.

Launch checklist

Module 8 talks about how to create your FB Business Manager and integrate your Facebook pixel on your site.

There’s a 2nd video on determining what’s better to launch your store: IG influencers or FB Ads. It also goes through the relevant factors when deciding. You’ll use that choice to go with one of the 2 following modules.

Launching: IG influencers

This module goes into the 1st strategy: Instagram influencers.

It covers how to create ad copy to increase conversion, finding profitable influencers, and how to reach them and negotiate after spotting them.

Launching: FB Ads

Dennis White and Noah Brewer make appearances explaining the 2nd approach to launching your store.

You learn about the right mindset and rules when researching and testing products. You learn how to spot best-sellers with Facebook (an extension of what was covered in the 3rd module) and create campaigns for testing your products before analyzing your results.

Scaling

The 11th module dives into how to scale your store after you start making profits.

You’re introduced to standard methods like using lookalike audiences and a few strategy examples. Retargeting and custom audiences are also covered. It explains what’s retargeting and different post types and time frames.

It closes with tips on getting creative with your lookalikes.

Facebook marketing and researching products in 2019

This is an updated module to add more updates strategies on the topics mentioned in this title. You have 2 product research methods called pioneer and stalking.

There are also videos comparing images against videos, how to know your budget, guidelines to identify profitable products, CBO campaigns, and bigger budgets.

eCommerce “Mastery”

This module is covered by a young dropshipper named Hayden Bowles. You can also find him on YouTube discussing similar topics to Tanner.

Unfortunately, this video is mostly a case study of Hayden; it’s not a useless module, but the title is definitely misleading.

You’re introduced to him before taking a look at his business approach. You learn how he runs his businesses and researches and tests products. You also see his marketing approach.

Non-traditional marketing

This is a fairly interesting module on marketing strategies you rarely see. It’s given by Matt Faber.

There’s a strategy called the 3×3 grid, Vyper Giveaways, and coupling these with retargeting for catching more customers. There’s a final video about using chat bots for automating customer service and how it helps your marketing.

Maintenance and automation

The last main module explains the necessary steps to cultivate a long-term profitable business.

You learn about automating some tasks and outsourcing others so that you can get more free time to focus on other things. It explains what you need from a VA and which steps you should follow to integrate them into your venture.

The last couple of lessons cover how to keep your engagement active to get repeated sales and how to handle your success.

FAQ

There’s somewhat of a bonus section providing video answers to some of the most common questions Tanner gets, and it’s pretty interest.

You learn what to do if:

Influencers don’t post ads.

You’re declined by merchant processors.

You get visits and not sales.

You’re receiving returns.

Suppliers run out of stock.

You don’t know if you want to go with IG influencers or FB ads.

You want to get better prices from your supplier.

You’re not getting enough conversions.

You have trouble finding influencers.

Final Verdict

Is It Worth It? Final Verdict

This course is definitely an upgrade to his previous course. You get more content, and it explains 2 different strategies to get more customers, so it’s definitely more detailed than his previous class.

However, it’s still an inferior product to other courses available, and it’s more expensive.

For example, Franklin Hatchett’s eCom Elites offers more than 200 different videos, which is a lot more than you’re getting here, and it’s just $197. You also learn about more strategies like Google Ads and SEO, plus rarely covered platforms like Snapchat and LinkedIn.

Besides, it provides more extensive content on the same strategies already provided here. The Faebook and Instagram content offers around 50 videos for each platform.

The course is also updated frequently, so it’s always relevant to current market environment and trends. If that’s not enough, you get to save $300 for your theme and marketing investment.

I hope you found this review useful and if you have any questions, please comment down below. I’ll be more than happy to assist you.

Once again, thanks for reading my Next Gen eCom Review and I wish you the best of luck.

The post Next Gen eCom Review appeared first on Only Genuine Reviews.

4 Laps Later...Graduation from the 21st grade

Not sure if this happens to anyone else, but save for a handful of races I tend to get to the finish line of the mile/1500 and wish I had maybe 50 more meters because my legs have finally turned over and I feel like I could have gotten that one more person. Graduating medical school feels a little bit like that - hey wait, where did all the time/track go?!

So here we are. Guess I should start by filling a few things in since my post about retiring/match day coming up/attempting to train for the half. 1. I matched in emergency medicine at SIU! 2. As for the no track thing, I will have to find a track at some point (and maybe a buddy) before 2018 is over because I need to run one more mile…. I have an irrational need to say I broke 5 minutes in the mile at least once a year for 10 straight years. 3. and more importantly however, I did run the Indy Mini Marathon (!) and then graduated from medical school the next day. Without falling while walking across the stage in heels no less! I definitely don’t necessarily recommend racing a half and graduating in the same weekend. I may or may not have put my family through the ringer getting them all up at 5am (which to them was 4am) with me to get downtown for the race and then basically having us all going non-stop the rest of the weekend with graduation activities.

Welcome to how my life has run the last 4 years, its fun isn’t it?

Anyway, I’ll start with the Mini. Training was about as rocky as expected, my mileage wasn’t as consistent as I hoped it would be (shocker at this point I know), but I did spend a month up over 50 miles at least. The week of the match was a pretty big setback unfortunately after an awesome and confidence inspiring 10-mile race. I barely hit my mileage and I got zero workouts in because I spent most of the week slightly paralyzed by the anticipation of finding out where I would be a resident. In retrospect this is really silly considering I knew Monday that I would be going somewhere, which is really the scarier email. The one someone brilliantly decided to title “Did you Match?” I don’t know ACGME did I?! Seriously thought, who decided that would be a good header… Anyway, got back into the groove mostly in April, but it was a little tougher being in the ICU from 7a-5p everyday instead of the shifts of the peds ED so things got moved around a lot. Somehow it is infinitely more exhausting to be sitting around reading all day than running around the ED sometimes I swear. I got to do my last big workout with Anna though as our big races were the same weekend and despite (per usual) having my ass handed to me it was an awesome workout that had me excited to race.

On race day I was pretty calm, maybe too calm, but the biggest hurdle for me was less the distance at this point and more the fact that Indiana decided that we skipped spring and would go right to early summer with the morning temperature already somewhere in the upper 60s/low 70s. For reference the 6-miler and 10-miler I did in preparation were a lovely 34 and 30 degrees respectively (thanks Indiana) and I think I may have only had 3 total workouts that touched actual its warm ‘break out the sports bra’ weather. Oh well. Overall though, race day was awesome. Less a mile in there was a guy in a kilt playing the ND fight song on the bagpipes and I just took that as a sign that no matter what it was going to be a great day.

- Clearly early in the race when I was still smiley and not dying -

I went in thinking if I can make it just a little further than the 8 mile mark where things starting getting tough in the 10 miler that I was in for a banner day, so I was a little disheartened when at mile 4 I was already feeling the ‘oh crap 6-minute pace is going to suck’ feeling. Following Anna’s wisdom however I told myself to relax rather than my natural response to get mad, push down and get frustrated and found that I was still running 6:05-6:08 and got myself mostly back into a groove that I thought maybe I could recover from. Then we hit the racetrack. Awesome sure, but it is reeaaaallly different to run around it than it is to watch an Indy car go around it at 180mph… needless to say it becomes the worlds longest feeling 2.5 miles ever no matter how cool it is to be running where the race cars drive and over the historic finishing bricks. I was hurting at mile 10 after coming out of the track. (Thanks Nick for reminding me at this point I have JUST a 5k to go. That is not what a miler likes to hear for encouragement.) There were a couple sad sacking 6:18ish miles at this point before I convinced myself push down and finish it up, I think my last mile was back down around 6:08. Unfortunately not quite fast enough as I barely missed breaking 80 minutes finishing 7th in 1:20:54. But hey Meb was the one who helped me up from the wobbly leg walk after the finish line so really how upset could you get at that point anyway?

So my big reach goal was break 75 if the best day ever happened, my real A goal was break 78 (average just under 6min pace), B goal was break 80, and my C goal was finish, don’t stop, don’t cry, avoid pooping pants. So I at least hit C. Maybe some of it was the delirium of I can’t believe I managed to keep myself going, but I honestly had so much fun despite not really hitting my goals save for finish. I had come so far (like 7+min PR if you want to get technical) from my lets jump in a half for funzies in November that had me absolutely dying just trying to run more than 10 miles for a long run again. (My previous last real 10+ mile long run before that was maybe May or June so I had no business jumping to 13 from like 7 or 8 on a whim.) Regardless, the best part is I finished and I definitely want to keep working to do another one! Kind of want to work on that 5k too just to feel like I’m really moving fast again ;)

- See Mom, I didn’t deliriously make it up! I was with Meb at the finish line! -

Moving on to the medicine side I should back up to Match Day. Back in March I opened up a big envelope with “Rebecca Tracy has matched Emergency Medicine at SIU School of Medicine in Springfield, IL” inside and I was over the moon. My closest Classmates and I all matched within our top ranked programs: Family Medicine at Virginia, OBGYN at Good Samaritan in Cincinnati, Internal Medicine at Henry Ford in Detroit, Derm at Largo Medical Center outside Tampa and myself in EM at SIU. We’re going to be doctors! (Cue flood of intoxicated 20 and 30 something’s on downtown Indy.) My family came down for the weekend to have dinner and celebrate with me and everyone was excited that I would be moving just a little bit closer to home. And after 9 years in Indiana finally coming home to Illinois.

Fast-forward a month and a half and its graduation weekend. I think I speak for most of my class when I say graduation was fun, you got to turn to your right and left, shake hands and very officially exchange ‘Doctor’, ‘Doctor’ with your classmates with ridiculous grins of disbelief that we finally made it, but it was mostly surreal and hit us all later at different times and for different reasons. It hit me finally not the first time I saw ‘Rebecca Tracy DO’ on something but when I was listening to a podcast about medical history any they were discussing the evolution of medical education. When discussing the current system they started all the way back with the classes you take in undergrad, taking the MCAT, preparing for Step 1, and that’s when it hit me. Oh my god I actually did all of these things! I am on the other side. I am a doctor.

And so begins the process of adjusting to the reality of being a resident physician and the transition into actually responsible for decisions that affect people’s lives and health. Not just learning how to do it and suggesting things, but actually the responsibility of doing it. So my mantra for the next little while when faced with problems or scary situations is, ‘They picked me for this program because they believe that I will be good at this, so I will take a deep breath and go because I’ve got this”. (Sorry if this is not confidence inspiring to anyone needing to visit an emergency room in July. We all have to deal with our imposter syndrome at some point; I promise we are well overseen by confident and more importantly highly competent people!)

-Thanks Dr. Walsh for putting up with me & being my hooder at graduation-

So here I am at the beginning of June, already tired of vacation and ready to have things to do other than unpack boxes (going to be regretting these words in a month and a half I’m sure). I took a phenomenal graduation trip out to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks to start my off on my life goal of hiking in all the national parks. Watched my cousin get married to the most wonderful guy and welcome him to the family true Tracys awkward dancing to Mama Mia style. Sucked it up through some food poisoning to celebrate one of my classmate/best friend’s wedding to her also amazing husband and now working on moving myself into life in Springfield!

Just enjoying the cool down before the next exciting race begins.

- Cheers Doctors! We made it! -

First blog post

I dont know if anyone will ever read this, im unsure if I actually want people too. This is just somewhere I thought I would jot down my idea’s and thoughts as an Angel Parent.

Before I go any further, maybe it’s best to define what I mean when I say Angel Parent. In basic terms it means my child died. Her name was Lexi Jayne and she was as real as could be, I held her in my arms and kissed her little head and fell in love with her as soon as I saw her. I didn’t used to believe in love at first sight, but since it happened to me twice (the only other time was with my wife) I guess I have no choice.

I guess maybe I should also give a bit of back story. That’s where most things start isn’t it? The beginning.

So, I was fortunate enough to meet my wife at work, I still remember when she came for her interview, she was stunning (and you still are babes if you read this). I never thought I would have a shot. You have heard the term “punching above your weight” or “well out of your league”, this was the ultimate definition of this. But after becoming friends a little romance blossomed and the next thing you knew we were together (yay go me). What followed were a lot of ups and like any relationship a couple of downs. We got married on August 5th of 2012 and our next thought was “let’s start a family”. We tried and tried for a good 4 years. We were told that in theory nothing was wrong with us so everything was to do with weight. We tried diets and our weight went up and down over the next however many years. We were still unsuccessful. We eventually blamed stress from our workplaces at the time and decided to hold off until we were in a better mental state to attempt to conceive.

This was around February 2016. We had lots to look forward too in the year ahead. We had a trip to New York planned, We were discussing a family cruise on the Disney Magic, so much was going on. We decided to be one of those couples who would just holiday for a while and come back to the baby thing later. We after all had plenty of time. Nature is a funny thing though isn’t it? It was June 2016 around the 28th to be exact. Now this may be a bit too much information here so apologies in advance. But Rachael had been having funny periods for the past 2 month, something was off and she was, understandably, concerned. We scheduled a Doctors appointment for the 30th of June to see what the hell was going on. On the 29th of June Rachael decided to do a pregnancy test JUST IN CASE. There it was, the line we had always wanted to see, it was POSITIVE. More tests were taken just to be certain and every one positive, positive, positive. We were overjoyed. We were finally extending our family.

Our next step was telling our parents. At this time my in laws were currently on a cruise, so they were unreachable. But my parents were around. I know you’re meant to wait until 12 weeks to tell people but we had waited for so long we thought, fuck tradition, lets tell people now. We bought some pacifiers and put them into a gift bag and presented them to my mum. She was, at first, confused. Until it all clicked. I don’t think I have ever seen her so happy. I then told my auntie who had the same reaction, though honestly, not as grand. Which we totally understood, she has never really been a kid person, if we got a puppy it would be so different haha. The next day my in-laws were to arrive home. We were going to pop down that evening but decided on a facetime conversation instead. I still have the pictures (im sure I will upload them soon). The tears of joy and happiness still makes me smile. Things were looking good.

As you can imagine the next few months of our lives was filled with excitement, planning, buying and obviously nerves. We went for our first scan thinking we were at 12 weeks. We were wrong, just so much anticipation, turns out we were only 8. But they checked our baby out anyway and everything was progressing nicely. Finally got our 12 week scan and could see our little baby properly for the first time. Yes she was small on the screen but features could be made out. I’m not going to lie here, tears were shed. Its one of those moments when you finally have something that you have always wanted. Your own flesh and blood on the screen in front of you. It’s something you can never prepare for. I’m sure my fellow fathers understand this. Things were now real.

Another 8 weeks later we finally get our 20 week scan. I am so nervous but excited, I get to see my child again but only this time we get to know if were having a boy or a girl. Like every father the thought of a son slightly edges in front of a daughter. I never understood why this is but it happened (on a side note the reason I mention this is because I want this blog to be fully honest, im not going to lie about feelings etc and if you think im wrong for wanting a boy, im sorry its just how it was). So we have the scan we are told it’s a girl. My wife was elated and truth be told, so was I. Yes its not going to be my boy that I will play football with etc but its going to be a girl. I came to actually liking the idea of a girl more than a boy. Just that daddy daughter bond, being wrapped around her little finger, scaring away her first dates etc. I was excited. The 20 week scan also showed us something that we didn’t expect. She had an anomaly. It was on the umbilical cord and thought to likely be a cyst but we would need further testing to be sure. We left the scan room, honestly, nervous. But we were reassured that these things pop up on a daily basis and its nothing to worry about. This just needs to be confirmed by a specialist and things can continue as normal.

So, assured as we were we left, we started discussing names and told our proud parents they were due to have a granddaughter. We decided on the name Lexi Jayne. It just fit. Lexi it was. Our family happily shared the news online that Lexi was our decided name and how proud they were, typical mam n dad stuff really. We were booked in with our next scan the week later to see what was going on with this anomaly. We spoke to a new Doctor who scanned my wife and advised us that this is something more serious than a cyst. We needed to see another speciality doctor in another hospital. So a week later another appointment was made at the hospital in the centre of Newcastle. We were told to arrive for 3pm but expect a bit of a delay. 6pm, we finally get called through for our scan. We speak to the doctor and her nurse who inform us Lexi had what was known as an Umbilical Vein Varix. If you want more information on that, google is your friend here people, in general it means the vein in her umbilical chord is swollen at a point. We were again assured that this is fine, this is a very rare condition but death rates were low, in fact the number of recorded deaths due to this varix is 0. We were told we need to be monitored every other week to check on growth as that’s the only thing we need to worry about.

So again we left happy. We had another scan of our daughter where it looked like she was yawning and had her hand over her mouth. I won’t lie, this had to be my favourite scan pic. It showed us a bit of her personality, we also got a pic of her massive foot which had been kicking Rachael for some time now. We then understood why it hurt so much haha. So more scans came and went and we got to watch our daughter grow every 2 weeks. Though we did have 1 more visit to the hospital in Newcastle centre. The doctors did a 3d scan (though I think they’re called 4d and I can never figure out why). He stupidly left it on the monitor as he went out the room, so free snap from my phone later and we had the perfect image haha. At this point my wife is starting to panic a bit, we haven’t really had time to start on Lexi’s room yet. Its getting close to December and Lexi is due in March. I assured her things would be ready on time and I have plans in place. I don’t think she believed me but I genuinely did have plans. We were to move the furniture out that we currently had in the beginning of December (which did get done) then around the 2nd or 3rd week my mam was going to start on the decorating of the room and the new year would bring in all of her furniture we would need. Speaking of decorating we decided we were going to have a Lilo and Stitch themed room. For a few reasons, one, we love stitch, stitch is awesome, don’t be fooled into thinking otherwise. Secondly the message in that movie that “ohana means family, family means no-one gets left behind, or forgotten” is something we thought was a nice motto for our family. Decals were bought and ready to go on walls. Everything was coming along nicely.

Thursday December 15th 2016. This is a day I will never forget for the rest of my life. It started out as any normal day would with the exception that my wife had a routine midwife appointment. I did my usual, get ready, kiss my wife goodbye and go to work routine. I was sat at work when I received an email at around 12:00. “I need you to come pick me up, somethings wrong with Lexi”. Okay, I was nervous. I left work and went to collect my wife who was waiting in the doctors surgery. During this time I had tried to contact my mam to let her know what was going on. No answer, sometimes getting in touch with the pope is easier than getting in touch with my mam haha. But I got to my wife, she gets in the car and tells me that her midwife cant find Lexi’s heartbeat on the doppler device. I wave this off immediately thinking she is just being awkward like her dad. My mam calls me back and we tell her the news, she is exactly the same, waves it off, she will be fine, of course she will.

I drop my wife off at the door and I go park the car. On the way in I smoke a cigarette, I have plenty of time. I go to the ward my wife is meant to be on. As I walk in…. the only word I can use to describe this next feeling is, Fuck. The ward is quiet apart from 1 voice. That 1 voice is screaming and crying and is a noise I will never get out of my head for the rest of my life. The other thing that was very distinguished about this voice is I recognised it. I knew immediately who it was. It was my wife. I walked to the reception head down asking for her, they sent me to another desk, I asked again for my wife, they sent me back to the original desk. It’s at this point I see someone I missed earlier, a nurse. I ask again for my wife. She has that look in her eye and I know what she is going to tell me. Her words were “are you Neil?” I say “yes” she is just about to go onto the whole I’m sorry I have bad news speech and I had to cut her off “I’m not stupid” I said “I can hear my wife screaming, my daughter is dead, where is she?” I was taken into a room where my wife is sat (thankfully with my sister who seen her come in) we all just embraced for a few minutes while things were confirmed 100%.

The next part of the day is all a bit of a blur. There are things I remember, things I try not too remember and because of this the order of stuff is a bit all over the place. We were sat in the same room being told that the next steps were we need Rachael to take a tablet, this would start to dissolve the placenta and start the process of getting our daughter out. At this point were trying to phone families to explain what the hell is going on. Were clearly in shock, I managed to get in touch with my mam again (which is rare, see pope comment). This is one part I will never forget. I had to tell my mam that her only grandchild was dead. How do you do this. I was choking back tears and all I could mutter out was, “it’s bad news mam, she’s gone” Unable to comprehend she was replying “what do you mean? Who’s gone?”. I knew what I had to say, it was difficult, it took all of my strength but I got the words out “Lexi is dead”. Everything on the phone went silent. You could hear the tears forming from my mam as she was trying to comprehend what her son was saying to her. Through muttered crying my mam asks how and I cant give her an answer. She said she will meet us back at home and see us soon. Her hanging up breaking her heart will live with me for the rest of my life. During this time we are trying to get in touch with my in-laws, who for once, are harder to get a hold of than my mam. We finally get through and I cant answer much for this as I wasn’t on the phone, but they’re told, I know they’re upset and they make their way to the hospital.

We sit for what feels like an eternity as we are told what the next steps of our journey will be. We finally have the tablet, the 3 of us are sitting in a room of sadness, a room of tears and a room of disbelief. After a while my in-laws appear and provide some much needed comfort to us all. We explain what has gone on and what is happening next. During this time we get moved to another room to get our heads around and prepare for the next few days. We are told we will be send home and we will need to return on Saturday. My wife wants to drink but due to the tablet she cant. So we opt for smoking again instead (my wife had stopped when she was pregnant). All I remember at this point is pacing the floor, my in-laws asking if I am okay and drinking coffee. We finally gather the courage to leave the hospital. We all go to the shop and pick up some essentials. For us cigarettes, for my in laws, food to keep our strength up. We arrived at the house first followed quickly by both sets of parents. We sat, we cried and we had cups of tea and coffee (yes the British way to sort ANY problem is a good ole fashioned cuppa). We talked a lot and for a long time. Eventually everyone left and it was just us. As much as we probably didn’t know it but at the time this was just what we needed. We needed time as a couple and just as a couple to figure our own shit out. We decided we would buy Lexi a star so she would always be remembered.

The next day was a bit of a blur. We had to go shopping and return some items we had bought (bottles etc) and also buy the kind of items women need when they are to give birth. On a side note with that, there are few places you can go to collect these supplies, if by chance you are reading this and working in one of these type of shops, please move it away from the baby aisle. Yes this is great for someone who is due to give birth to a healthy and alive child, to someone who has been told their child has died and is going to have a stillbirth, not so much. One of the things I remember about this day was trying to hold back tears in public. It’s strange as a male, were not meant to cry. Even when going through the worst pain imaginable all I could think was don’t let anyone see you cry. Also I was thankful that my mam was free that day to drive us around. The lack of food and lack of sleep since the day prior would have made driving a difficult and stupid task. I think to my mam she saw this as a small thing, but she will never know how much we needed this and how thankful we were. Another foodless day and sleepless night followed. The next day was hospital day.

So the big day is here, we get Rachael packed up take a few supplies, pop to the shop on the way and pick up some cigarettes, just enough for the day as we suspect we will be home in a few hours. Boy were we wrong. We arrived at the hospital at around 11:50 am, we stand outside taking everything in and before we go in, we have a quick smoke. We can see other people judging us, and we understand it, were pregnant and smoking. The only difference is smoking cant harm our baby, nothing can anymore. We go to the birthing suite and settle in to our room which in this hospital is known as “the Willow Room”. Our main midwife comes in and introduces herself. Her name is Jenny. She is a specialist bereavement midwife who deals with these sort of cases (actually if you google Jenny you will also see she has won awards for this, she really is amazing). She explained the procedure we would have to go through to get Rachael induced and to get Lexi out. The plan was every 4 hours she would have to have a tablet inserted into her cervix to basically force labour. After putting our minds at rest about our own worries and everything else she left the room for us to settle in. The willow room in the hospital is very different to other birthing suites, We had tea and coffee facilities, a sofa that turned into a double bed and the room was generally quite a bit bigger. There was also a book and a box with a camera in for us to take pictures with when our angel arrived. We looked at the book and it was stories of everyone who had been in the willow room prior to us. It was a deeply harrowing experience to read other people’s stories about their loved ones who were taken away so soon, but at the same time, it was comforting to know we weren’t alone, again more tears were shed.

It was around 2pm when Jenny came back to our room and we got things started. I remember asking Rachael how it was with the tablet and she kept a brave face and said as much as it was uncomfortable going in it was okay and she was fine. So we settled in to what would be our home for the next while. We chatted between each other and with the midwives when they appeared, went for a few cigarettes, watched tele, played on our phones etc, just like you would do normally. I really liked this room. It became our own personal bubble. The day turned to night and Rachael had already had another tablet. Nothing was moving, In all honesty, we expected to be home by now. We thought this would be a very quick procedure, induced couple of tablets and boom Lexi would be out. I remember phoning my mam saying things were taking longer than expected and I needed some things brought to us like food and more cigs. My mam being the gem that she is was down immediately with a bag full of goodies to snack on and more cigs to keep us going. She didn’t stay for long but we were grateful for the company. Another thing about being in the Willow Room, you get whatever you want. As most of you will know, hospitals have set visiting hours, not in the Willow Room. We could have visitors at any time we wanted, if there was stuff we wanted we only need ask (I even got meals brought to me and this hospital food was nice man). The other difference was a very subtle one, our room had a blue butterfly sticker on the door. The butterfly system is a great idea and again I recommend you look into it if you are curious.

One thing that made us quite popular with the midwives was our box of heroes, every time someone came in chocolate was offered. It was a small way to show the midwives how much we appreciated the care they had given us so far. So the night passed again being woken up every 4 hours for a tablet. Rachael was getting quite uncomfortable now which is understandable. Basically, the tablet would dissolve around her cervix and every time a new one was added it would feel gritty. It was one of those helpless moments where there was nothing I could do but hold her hand, tell her how amazing she was and how proud I was of her. Another slight tangent here, because we were on the birthing suite quite often during the night we would hear other women come into the other rooms, scream and then hear the baby cry. As you can imagine this was quite distressing but thankfully we had the TV to drown this out. Plus midwives would always come in and check on us make sure we were okay. Also it was during this time me and Rachael decided that when we have our rainbow baby, we don’t want a big deal made of it in the hospital, which means no balloons or anything substantial brought in while we are there. This can be saved until we are home. The amount of distress this caused to both me and the wife when we were going outside or for a walk just made us decide that’s how it will be. We don’t want to put other angel parents through that.

Sunday came around and still no movement. It got to 2pm and we were told that Rachael now gets a 24 hour break from the tablets, this came as great news to us, finally she could relax and maybe sleep without being woken through the night. We were introduced to some new midwives along the way, we met Anne who was a bubbly Scottish girl and who in the evening just sat and cried with us and tried her best to get us smiling again. She was very much like a mother figure and was a very open and honest person. She was amazing at comforting us and was there for us during our time of need without being in the way. We also met Judy. Now Judy was a funny one. I wasn’t sure about her at first she seems a little less friendly than Anne and Jenny but again maybe I was tired. Turns out, that’s all it was. After a late night cigarette the wife got slightly triggered again by people taking their healthy babies home. We got back to our room and she just broke down and cried in my arms. Judy clearly saw something was wrong and joined us. She was so kind and understanding and we sat talking for what must have been an hour. Showing pictures of our pets and family pets and discussing their personalities etc it really was a welcomed distraction.

Monday morning rolled around and still no Lexi. We knew that the tablets would be starting again soon so we made the most of our morning. Take a bit longer in the shower than normal and just generally have a bit of a relax before the afternoon rolled around. 2pm quickly struck us though and Rachael was prepped for another tablet. It was still painful but we tried to make light of the situation (Rachael at one point offering me to get my prostate checked, at the snap of the glove I politely declined). By this time we had another visit off mam to bring us more goodies and more cigs and a bit more general conversation. During this time I was keeping the rest of the family updated via text or Facebook Messenger so they knew what was going on. Because of how far my in laws lived we didn’t want to make them do such a long journey when my mam was closer, even though I know they would if we needed them too. It got to Monday night and there was still no movement. Rachaels cervix hadn’t changed and Lexi showed no signs of appearing any time soon. It was December 19th and we feared we would still be here on Christmas Day.

Tuesday December 20th. Rachael had been on tablets all day Monday and nothing was moving. She got a tablet at around 2-3am and she was in pain. The tablets really had taken their toll on her, I have never felt so helpless. Rachael finally opted to take some gas and air to help with her pain. I folder up my bed and sat with her to keep her company and try to help with her pain. Judy was our midwife again and she would periodically come to check on us. As the hours went on Rachael’s pain got more and more severe. She went to the toilet and something unplugged (im not sure on the terminology here, I probably should be but im not). I was told to tell Judy about what had happened. This was at about 5am. Judy came back and checked on her, things were moving along now and very quickly. We were told we could have dihydromorphine when labour started to help with the pain. Judy told me to let her know when things moved along again and she would go get this for her. It got to approximately 5:10 am and at that point Rachaels waters broke, This was again one of those things I’d never forget. Normally when waters break (from what I’m aware) this should all be clear liquid. This was not the case with us. When Rachael’s water broke it was red, it was a lot of blood. This was the sign of things happening. I’m not going to lie people, I panicked. I needed to find the call button as there was no midwife I could see. I followed the chord but couldn’t see the button, it was in the cupboard but my brain could not comprehend it. All I knew is I couldn’t see it. Finally when I wracked my head to being able to open the cupboard door I pressed the button, Judy was there immediately. Turns out we didn’t have time for the dihydromorphine, Lexi was coming and she was coming fast.

The birth was a standard birth apart from Lexi coming out butt first. I held Rachael’s hand as she pushed and she delivered Lexi on only gas and air, she did so well. It was weird as much as there was people in the room once Rachael stopped pushing a Lexi was out there was a silence, the crying you expect to hear and pray to hear wasn’t there. I remember for about a good 20 minutes I just sat there, looking out the window crying. I couldn’t look at Lexi and I couldn’t look at anyone else, although I did look while they gave my wife a huge injection in her leg to flush the placenta and being amazed that she didn’t feel it. We did have a laugh about that later. Once the midwives had finished up with Rachael I finally got the courage to look at her. Wow she was beautiful, I know everyone says their child is beautiful but she really was. Perfect little nose, eyes were kind of open so we could tell she had brown eyes, unfortunately she had my nose and not Rachaels and she had little wisps of brown hair. She was born at 5:18 am and when she was weighed she was 2lb 9oz. Judy stayed with us for a while and helped us to bathe Lexi, She asked if I wanted to do it but I didn’t have the strength. We got plenty of photo’s though and got her wrapped up in a towel. Next some clothes were brought in as she was too small for the clothes we had for her. She was wrapped in a little pink blanket and we finally got to hold our angel. Rachael had first hold, as she should I might add. You could see the pain in her eyes as she stared at our first born child. Tears were strolling down her cheek and she could not stop apologising even though she was not at fault. Lots of cuddles and kisses later it was my turn. Dear reader I have a confession to make here, holding a child has always been a huge fear of mine, what if I drop her, what if I don’t hold her right what if I make her uncomfortable etc etc. But I sat down and took her into my arms, it felt so natural. I have never felt such a surge of love and sadness at the same time before in my life. I just broke down. Here she was, my precious little daughter in my arms, I was finally a dad. The only difference is I couldn’t take my daughter home. We took lots of pictures and let our parents know Lexi was finally here and arranged their visiting times.

The first person to arrive was my Auntie, now you may recall I mentioned her earlier in the story, she was the prefer dogs to kids lady. She sat down with Lexi, had a bit of a hold and got lots of photo’s taken. You could see the pain in her eyes, this is not what we expected and I don’t think she expected it either. You could see the bond form between them instantly. We still joke to this day about how I would have understood more if it was our puppy who died. It just shows how much of a big heart my auntie has and she still to this day will cry when Lexi is mentioned. I know that if she had survived they would have been inseparable. We left my auntie babysitting while we went for our first smoke of the day. Later was time for my in laws to arrive, they brought us some McDonalds as a bit of a snack to get some other food in us which was greatly appreciated. Again more cuddles were had and more photo’s taken. My mam and Steve (her partner) followed. I was again surprised by the reaction of Steve. Bit of background here (ie another tangent). So, my mum had only recently got together with Steve earlier in the year. He had known us less than a year when Lexi was born. I will always remember when he walked into the room he just burst into tears. He came over and got himself some cuddles too and we made sure to get photo’s so he could keep that memory alive forever. Something like this I believe shows true character and his reaction to Lexi well and truly cemented my opinion of Steve as being a genuinely nice guy with a heart of gold. More photo’s later and lots of discussion (it was a noisy room at this point) Rachael’s sister walked in. Unfortunately it did get to the point where Lexi was becoming to deteriorated to hold anymore and needed to stay in her cold cot. Vic (Rachaels sister) did manage to give her a kiss and old onto her hand for a while so she did get some bonding time. A Little about Victoria, (again another tangent). Ever since I have known Vic she has always been strong willed and strong minded and VERY strong emotionally. She rarely shows when she is upset unless it really gets to her, she is a proud person and has every right to be and its an honour to be able to call her my sister in law. She can hold people together when needed and be that support that you want without being condescending toward you.

The reason I mention above is due to what happened when Vic walked in the room. She came in all happy and hey everyone being bubbly as normal. Went to Lexi’s cold cot, took one look and immediately turned away to try to hide the fact she was crying. She was clearly too late cos I saw her and went to give her a hug. So we all just kind of chilled in this room and eventually we got notice that the bereavement officer was here to see us. Her name was Kara. We took this as a sign for everyone to leave (apart from Vic, we wanted her to stay as she hadn’t been long, she waited outside for us to finish up with this next part). Kara introduced herself as the person no one ever wants to meet. We made a joke about this and complimented how lovely she actually was and we would happily speak to her again, just preferably under better circumstances. We got through the paperwork that was needed and immediately afterwards the registry officer was here. Another while of getting all of her details registered. She didn’t get a birth or death certificate, she got a certification of stillbirth. This means she will still have a record of life in a way and will still be acknowledged. What did get a bit creepy was towards the end of the registration, the lady doing this kept looking at us funny all throughout the process. It got to the end and she asked, are you married? We said yes, she asked when we got married and where. We told her and the penny dropped. The lady registering the death of our daughter registered our marriage. It was a nice but shocking revelation. Eventually everyone left and we spent some time Me, Rachael, Vic, and Lexi. More bonding later it was time for Vic to go.

We sat for a while just the 3 of us now, s a few nurses we spoke to throughout the time came in to see her and tell us how beautiful she was and offer hugs and support. Finally it hit around 5:30 pm and we decided for Lexi’s sake, it was time to say goodbye. She was deteriorating quickly and we didn’t want her to anymore. We also met another bereavement midwife called Nira. We told her it was time for Lexi to go. We put her teddy in her basket and sent her on her way re-assured we could get her back any time we wanted. We decided we would stay another night in our little hospital bubble. My mam brought us more McDonalds, a meal this time though and we all sat and chatted for a bit. We fell asleep ready to depart in the morning.

We awoke around 8:15 am after a rough night sleep, we decided to quickly go for a smoke before getting ready to go. On our way we passed Kara again who advised she had a little present for us but was nervous about giving it because of our stance on religion (we’re both atheist). We were absolutely gobsmacked that someone had thought of us who we barely knew and told her not to worry and to pop up and see us when she is free. We finished our cigarettes, went upstairs and had some toast and started to pack. Kara turned up and presented us with this little Christmas decoration of an Angel with Lexi’s name on it. It was beautiful and we thanked her profusely. We were later told that Kara never does this, she was just so touched by us and our story she couldn’t resist. We have spoke to Kara since and she really is an awesome lady. We finally went home and prepared for what would be a very strange Christmas.

I will skip over Christmas because I am sure you can guess how it was. Lots of tears, lots of alcohol and lots of what ifs. Its to be expected.

I will skip to just before new year. We finally got notice that Lexi’s body had been released after post mortem. We will be made aware when she is in the chapel of rest ready for us to go visit her and finish off the rest of the funeral arrangements. Actually (I swear I make a lot of tangents) on a side note. This again goes to show how amazing the hospital was. Once we got everything sorted we were also advised that Lexi’s funeral would be paid for by the NHS/hospital trust. This was a HUGE weight off our minds. Not a single expense was spared, we got cars, the chapel of rest, coffin all made for to our specification. All we needed to pay for was flowers. The funeral was organised by the co-op and I must admit, they were brilliant from start to finish. I will discuss the funeral more in the next section.

So once we found out Lexi was available to be visited again we got everyone who wanted too together and we went to see her. I went in first to make sure she hadn’t deteriorated too much. She was still perfect. Her teddy was still sat with her protecting her and making sure she was not alone. We organised songs with the directors and the priest guy who was going to do the service. We ordered flowers and everything was set for the day.

It was a cold morning, the wind was blowing and the air felt very crisp. The flowers were delivered, the family was here. All we were waiting for now was Lexi. We got in the car, the coffin was not on show, and took the small drive to the crematorium. We had come to the decision that I was to carry her down the aisle. That’s all I could think about on the way. How can I do this? Am I strong enough? Am I going to break down? Am I going to drop her? Etc etc. We pulled in and everyone was inside the building due to the weather though a small smattering of people waited outside. One of those people was a friend of my grandmother. She was stood right where the first car stopped. I am so thankful for this as seeing her was like seeing my gran and that gave me the strength to do what I had to do. I walked over gave her a big hug and thanked her for coming. Immediately turned to the right and picked up my daughters baby pink coffin. There is a saying, “the smallest boxes are the heaviest”. Never before has that felt so true. I walked my daughter down the aisle for what would be the only and last time as precious child played in the background. I somehow held it together. The service was the same as any other, slightly less religious for us but it was still beautiful. I don’t know if there is such a thing as a perfect funeral, but if so, this was it.

I guess the last thing to mention story wise was getting post mortem results. It was found to be that Lexi had the Varix which was an issue and also had a Whartons Jelly Deficiency. Basically this means her cord wasn’t protected. Both of these conditions are very rare and we know that we will not get these again. But for now, we work on our rainbow baby and doing things for baby loss charities.

If you have read this far thank you. More will be coming soon on the life of an angel parent.
