Another Con Well Spent
Nov. 1st, 2009 08:30 pmI am home, hanjuuluver is safely on the plane back to NM, and the con is over. D:
Since it was Halloween last night, the two of us decided that the thing to do would be to screen a few select episodes of Supernatural in our room, for our own entertainment and the entertainment of anyone on the third floor who noticed the sign on our door and stopped in. We watched Bloody Mary, Movie Monster, Ghostfacers, and the episode with the creepy soul-sucking changeling children, and spent the rest of the night terrified to look into any of the numerous large mirrors in our hotel room.
This morning/afternoon was the Small Fandoms panel (which lived up to its name by having five people show up), the Bishie Brunch, the Supernatural panel, and the Yaoi in Comics panel (which hanjuuluver talked me into going to because I was going to leave with her at 2.00). We sat with a nice group at the brunch and the eye candy was lovely - getting served by FFVII!Cid and a guy in black leather spanky pants more than made up for the light spread and the fact that I never got anything to drink. Also, I found out from one of the women at the table that yesterday's mystery anime with the guy in the red coat was Samurai 7, so now I'm watching that.
The Supernatural panel was the biggest panel I went to, and probably the most fun. Evenly split between the Sam/Dean and the Dean/Castiel groups - and me right in the middle liking both - and everyone agreeing that Bobby is the best ever. And a big chunk of it was devoted to fic recs and discussions of crackiest pairings ever. I think we won for Yellow-Eyed-Demon-possessed!Mary's dad/John Winchester. Fun times!
The Yaoi in Comics panel, like last year, was twenty minutes of Why Billy and Teddy Are The Cutest Canon Couple In the Universe, which I can hardly object to, twenty minutes of Why Everyone In The World Knew Northstar Was Gay Before He Was Outed, again much to my tastes, and then a free-for-all shouting match about whether Batman would bottom for Superman, why it sucks to be a Titan, and Daken sleeping his way through the MU. Also Robins! There was a Robin, a Deadpool, and three Wolverines in the room. So yeah, really glad I made the time to go to that.
And to cap it all off, I have pictures of the prints I bought yesterday! I'm still trying to figure out what to do with them - they are 8.5x11", which seems a bit small to hang on my walls, but I want to show them off. Whatever. Anyway, I got two prints by Jo Chen (hardest choice ever, her Runaways, Thor, and Buffy covers are gorgeous), and two pieces of fanart.
( Nightwing, smooching, and toppy!Sam under the cut )
