I haven't done anything on Gaia. However, upon having my boyfriend tell me to cosplay as Dirk this past spring and to read Homestuck (how daunting is that?), I read through at a slow enough pace to let most things sink in, and I think it turned out well, or at least decent enough to find pictures of myself on Tumblr after the photoshoot at NDK (Nan Desu Kan in Denver). I didn't have enough time to throw together a God Tier outfit, but I did have some pretty awesome props. I had just gotten to the Alpha Kids when I needed to start ordering essentials I couldn't make.
Since not being able to see a thing wasn't so cool this year, next year I'm going to have to go as Eridan and wear my real glasses. I'm an aquarius. But I'm maybe too nice? And boy howdy, is that a lot of work for one to three days! I say one to three because I might also need to be Jake.
If I could wear contacts, I wanted to be Cronus to live my dream of being a 1950s troll greaser and the worst character in Homestuck of whom I absolutely adore unironically. Being Orphaner Dualscar would complete the trio, and be dramatic and awesome like
a certain Dolorosa I saw. Though being Kankri at a con would be more fun than I could possibly stand. Too bad about the whole eyes-not-staying-open, giant-eyelashes ordeal.
Any makeup advice? Teeth? Ear-fins? Horns? How to take up knitting a scarf? Finding

with widow's peaks that I can add a purple bang clip to. This might be the one. *ram6ling c9ntinues*
