Ok so Riona is gonna get kicked in the butt for not posting a thread on this most awesome of conventions already. I'm not the kinda person to give you play by plays on everything we did. I will tell you we had a wonderful time. We saw some sweet costumes. We cosplayed too of course. We spent way to much money in the dealers room and art alley. We danced our butts off at the rave Friday night. And we met some awesome voice actors. Troy Baker, omg so hot!, Jerry Jewell, Aaron Dismuke (i think that's how you spell), Chris Ayres, Daniel Kevin Harrison, and we met up with Greg Ayres again.
Cool thing was that Greg Ayres actually recognized me and Ri. He was like 'Oh yeah! Emily and Melissa right!?' We both kinda went O.O Yeah! That's us! It was so cool that he remembered us. We told him we'd see him at Tekko next year. We're actually gonna see him sooner but he doesn't know that. Ha ha. Can't wait. He's one of the coolest guys ever.
Troy Baker was by far the cutest, funniest, and sweetest voice actor I've met. He is definitely a ham for attention. As he put it 'voice actors are wh--es for attention.' Or something like that. We went to one of his panels Saturday afternoon which ended up being very funny and interesting. He actually ended borrowing my laptop to show everyone pics and videos of his newest show Ascend. (Incredibly awesome show. Look it up...www.preparetoascend.com) I had to run all the way to our hotel room and back down to get it. But it was worth it. I got video of him playing on it (woot!) and talking to us. I'll post the links under all this mess.
We actually followed Troy around most of Saturday afternoon. We were his little mini entourage after the panel where he borrowed my laptop. I told him I was an air force cop and he thought that was hot. Go me! Sorry had to fan girl for a second. We got autographs from everyone previously mentioned. We were the first in line for the last autograph session on Sunday like an hour before it started. It was actually really funny. We started playing Crazy 8s with Ri's deck of FMA cards and ended up pulling in like three other people also waiting. We also got one of the staff guys to silly dance with us while we waited.
All in all it was an awesome con. It would have been more fun if Ri's teeth hadn't been killing her. Ah well. Anywho, on to pics and links of Troy footage. Woot!
Sorry footage is very quiet. It recorded it on my phone. You can hear me and Ri laughing and talking in some of it. Along with me threatening Ri's little sister, Kasey, occasionally.
