Crazy otaku!

To give a bit of background..
Otakon is a Japanese anime/manga/J-pop convention held each year in Baltimore, and taking place this weekend. Last year something like 17,000 crazy otaku showed up for it. (Including me.)

seth.ethero: AHHH!
seth.ethero: Mariania is asking me if I'll be at Otakon!
seth.ethero: Heelp!
seth.ethero: **sweats**
bug: “Just say no.”
seth.ethero: SHE'S CRAZY!
bug: or.. “I don't know yet.. I'm not sure if I can make it to Baltimore this weekend.”
seth.ethero: But if she does see me, then what?
bug: Or just.. *don't answer*.
bug: If she sees you (and she might not recognize you, you know).. "Oh, I managed to get down at the last minute, I really didn't think I'd make it this year."
bug: and then you walk away.
seth.ethero: After I stab her to make sure she doesn't follow.
seth.ethero: Oh it's too bad I'm not dressing up this year.
seth.ethero: A mask would do me good.
bug: yep.
seth.ethero: Unless it was a mask of a pie, that would be bad.
