Gally!

[tenlittlebullets]

On my way to Gallifrey One! (Side note: You know sort of travel anxiety that lingers in the back of your head and goes "What if you can't find the hotel? What if you can't find it because it doesn't EXIST? What if you step out of the plane and your entire destination doesn't exist, and there's nothing but a cornfield or a howling void filled with asteroids or a chillingly empty hole in spacetime?" Yeah, the sentence "I'm going to Gallifrey!" really doesn't do a lot to defuse that anxiety.) Flight gets out of DC National at 5:45 AM, which is pretty much the ass end of EVERYTHING, and the best transport I could arrange was to be dropped off around 1am by my brother. So, close on five hours in Reagan National, sitting on my butt on the very hard floor of the elevator/pay-phone alcove, because that's the only place where the muzak isn't earsplitting. Who the fuck ghetto-blasts muzak at three in the morning, anyway? Well, okay, an airport named after Ronald Reagan, that's who. At least there's WiFi.

Costumes lined up for Gally this year: Simm!Master as usual, Yana!Master, possibility of Ninth Doctor, and--fingers crossed that the last-minute assembly/tinkering at the hotel goes all right--tag-team Happiness Patrol cosplay with a buddy from Tumblr. I realize it would probably be mean to mount a guerrilla "Cheer up, emo Time Lord!" campaign against random Tens, but... well, it's still deeply tempting. I've been too much of a failface lately to rig up a pair of faux-stone wings that could survive an airplane trip, so weeping angel has to stay at home again.

OMG. This MUST happen. And please take photos!

Ah, that's what I forgot! Camera. Drat. Oh well, I'm sure I'll be able to yoink photos off my friends afterwards.

I don't really want to harass random cosplayers who might not give a fig about demented Seven 'n' Ace serials, but if I can secure the participation of any Tens, there will definitely be photos. (Edit: And did I mention there might be working squirt guns involved.)

People who don't know Seven and Ace need to be educated. *firm nod* ("I can hear the sound of empires toppling." <- ALLLLLLL the love for The Happiness Patrol.)

Indeed. *bwees at your icon* And oh, what a hardship, getting an emergency education in Seven and Ace. Entire afternoons spent watching Remembrance of the Daleks over and over! Tragic.

("Look me in the eye. Pull the trigger. End my life." SEVENNNN yes you are much better at dealing with scared people holding guns than a certain future self I could mention.)

:lol: YES. Exactly what I was going to say! The idea is wonderful. Oh my.

(And, I hope you have a great time, 10littlebullets, and get there safely. ♥)
