misc. fandom stuff
Feb. 4th, 2005 01:03 am1) I want to run a panel at Y-con this year.
I'm thinking what might be cool -- a panel on the differences between canon yaoi and inferred yaoi. Y'know, there are shows where the ghey is actually in the show, but the really popular fandoms seem to be the one where there's no outright ghei, and it's all put in there by the fans. Why is that? Discuss.
I think I could run a panel without much problem. Better at Y-con than some place like, say, Otakon, where there are sixty zillion people. Y-con is much more of a family atmosphere. (By which I mean, community, not little-kids family.) Whenever I go to panels at Y-con I end up talking almost as much as the panelist anyway. >_>;
I guess you have to apply... and stuff. Maybe the webiste would tell me more if it wasn't down.
2) I wanna cosplay Mosp from Sluggy Freelance at Otakon next year (or AX, if I don't go to Otakon.)
I seriously do. Unfortunately this will be very complicated and difficult. Why? Because Mosp is a giant snake-woman with snakes for hair. X_x I do not think my limited tailoring skills are up to this.
3) I have all this stuff and I want to distribute it places like MLs and LJ comms because I am a comment whore. unfortunately, I don't want to totally spam people and I can't think straight to coordinate it. *is scatterbrained*
