Impossible things before breakfast

Unimatrix Two Posted on March 22, 2010 by MikhailMarch 22, 2010

Oh, and this is the hall costume that went over so well. After what I thought would be my grand exit from TCon costuming last year, I could hardly disappoint my audience this year! The choice seemed appropriate with the Tim Burton movie’s release this season. I got picture requests all day, and some folks actually expressed disappointment that I changed back into street clothes after Keith’s concert! One thing I learned: college seating is not designed for petticoats. Well, another: some ladies take vengeful glee in seeing a guy rub his sore feet after spending the day in heels. … Continue reading →

A Visit to Technicon

Unimatrix Two Posted on March 22, 2010 by MikhailMarch 22, 2010

Technicon 27 started with our water heater cracking open. Okay, so the two weren’t causally linked. The situation remained damn frustrating, though: Starr had been scheduled to work her 7am-7pm shift, but we both really wanted her to come to the con, which meant we would probably get there around 2 or 3 Saturday morning. So be it: such is life. Then her work called in the wee hours of Friday to say she’d actually been scheduled 3am-3pm, which wouldn’t be any easier on her, but meant we’d show up in Blacksburg at a decent hour! Then we both came … Continue reading →

Upcoming events

Unimatrix Two Posted on October 16, 2009 by MikhailOctober 16, 2009

VTSFFC has announced plans to hold a Technicon in 2010. I realized this morning that the first part of my last post could be a bit impenetrable if one doesn’t know at least a little gamer slang. Luckily, there’s not many people reading my journal who don’t… and the rest are sharp enough to work it out from contexts. Thanks to everyone for the support! This is weirding me the hell out, but I have no intention of getting all drama-queeny over it (even if sometimes I want to). Having you folks watching my back helps an enormous amount.

RPG character quiz

Unimatrix Two Posted on July 30, 2009 by MikhailJuly 30, 2009

Taken from funwithrage, since it looked entertaining. —– Out of all of your characters from any game, who would you… Take to lunch? I can’t remember his name off the top of my head, but my Deadlands character was a cross between Abraham Van Helsing and Egon Spengler. I think he’d have some fascinating stories and insights, and the fact that he’s slightly mad wouldn’t hurt a bit. Want to rescue you? “Professor K”, the mysterious mentalist I played in some Shadowrun sessions. He’s appeared in lots of fic written by our crowd, and he’s pretty good at the whole … Continue reading →

More edumacation

Unimatrix Two Posted on April 1, 2009 by MikhailApril 1, 2009

Wall-of-text post is finally up (behind the lifestyle filter) about my Saturday night panels. That was a bumpy ride, to be sure. But we had sandwiches! Looks like the chances are good to be doing my schtick at MarsCon 2010 and SheVaCon 2010. I think I’m almost relieved that the NekoCon audience is probably far too jaded for such a thing.

Shiny!

Unimatrix Two Posted on March 30, 2009 by MikhailMarch 30, 2009

The observant reader of this journal may have noticed that I didn’t mention exactly what outfits I wore as my hall costume or Costume Call garb. There’s a reason, and I think pictures are worth quite a few words, to begin with. So, my Technicon 26 hall costume and evening costumes: . It’s my take on the current ‘steampunk’ craze, in lace and black vinyl; and the anime character “Sailor Mars” in PVC fabric as well. I’ve actually had the second outfit for a while, but only found the nerve to wear it at the Technicon final blowout. So I … Continue reading →

Turning Out the Lights

Unimatrix Two Posted on March 30, 2009 by MikhailMarch 30, 2009

I’m staying up too long again tonight, but I really want to write down my weekend impressions while they are fresh. The clock read quarter-to-eleven before I could drag my carcass out of bed, which meant that Closing Ceremonies were only three hours away. No panels, no costuming, just time spent with friends today. I wandered the halls, trading hugs and saying hellos and goodbyes, until noon when the con auctions were to begin. My interest this year remained solely academic, as I’d vowed to spend no money at the con: the budget this spring wouldn’t support it. The White … Continue reading →

The Technicon 26 Show

Unimatrix Two Posted on March 30, 2009 by MikhailMarch 30, 2009

Well, I intended to do the Saturday write-up last night, but by the time I got to bed, I was far too brain-dead to even try it. Not much better now, honestly, but I’ll still give it a go. Health-wise, this year ran much smoother than the last. Woke up feeling all right, got a filling breakfast, and headed right on in to the con. Took about an hour to check out all the function rooms and say hi to the lovely people I encountered, then the 11:00 Costuming For Anthropomorphics panel started, so I donned my lynx ears and … Continue reading →

Cold and wet and just plain hungry

Unimatrix Two Posted on March 28, 2009 by MikhailMarch 28, 2009

“Very much what I imagine a small college town with crappy weather would be like, back on old Earth.” – Captain Vanderdecken, Space Rogues Yes, we’ve got nice thick fog, accompanied with that fine, voluminous rain that coldly soaks everything in no time. I may not find my way to the con without leaning out the car window and yelping sonar pings into the blankness. At least I feel pretty decent this morning. Yay getting up just before the end of the continental breakfast.
