Hello, hello! I always get a bit scatterbrained when I try to post a new photo. I'm always thinking, "WHAT THE HECK AM I EVEN GOING TO SAY. CAN I JUST POST A PICTURE, SAY HI, AND LEAVE NOW?" lol Somehow I end up finding something to say, and then other times I even end up with paragraphs. HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN? lol

Well, I left it up to you to vote for what you wanted to see me post next and alot of you said more Kingdom Hearts! I couldn't agree more, it's such a special series to me. Here's a shot of my Replica Riku from 2011's AKiCon.
Ah, AkiCon 2011. Fond memories, that year. I met so many great people that convention, let alone that whole convention year!
I can't wait to wear Riku again. <3

Cheers!

You look fantastic as Riku! Everything about the costume looks well crafted and suits you so much! I haven't played any Kingdom Hearts, but my twin did and she love it so much that she forced me (almost against well) to make a Sora cosplay with her Roxas. I still have to upload pictures. OTL

Wow, thanks so much! Riku is one of my favorite cosplays that I've done, it means so much to hear that! ♥
HAHA, siblings I tell you. ;) I'm very curious to see your guys' Sora and Roxas cosplay now. xD
Did you not play it just because it didn't intrigue you? Or did you not like the games?

No, it is just I am not a video games fan. I've actually never been interested in sitting in front of a tv and play a game. Maybe is comes with being a twin and always having a friend there to play with, but I just find it boring and mind numbing not matter how complex. T_T I am sure they are interesting games, but I don't know. I didn't grow up with video games. I prefer going to the gym or being active outside, thinking of conceptual photographs, and researching/reading. So, maybe I am bored!

The KH fandom scared me away too. Haha!! I was nervous with all the shipping and fangirls. When I wore Sora though, most people were REALLY nice and asked a lot about the construction of the costume more than anything. So, it wasn't bad at all. I will try and find a picture to put up. Honestly we didn't wear them too long (we had a lot of panels/events to do) so we only got a few.

WOW... the feel of this pic... it's like the person looking at it has been defeated by Riku and is about to get his/her heart unlocked...
