221B Con report, day three

The Moran cosplay went well. People seemed to enjoy it--those who got it, anyway? [livejournal.com profile] aprilstarchild, [livejournal.com profile] pennswoods, and impossiblemonsieur from Tumblr staged a Moran (me)/Moriarty (impossiblemonsieur) kidnapping of Sherlock ([livejournal.com profile] aprilstarchild and the Fandom Police ([livejournal.com profile] pennswoods) gave us an ASBO for kidnapping. When impossiblemonsieur posts the photo of it to Tumblr, I'll put up a link. It was fantastic.

Made it to three panels--Three Patch Podcast's panel on what fandom means to you/how it's changed your life, a panel on Sherlock/James Bond and MI6, and a panel on Sebastian Moran. The MI6 panel was my favorite--very educational! All the panelists had their shit together 100% (one of them actually presented a short paper). Pretty impressive for a panel at a con that doesn't announce panelists in advance.

Not sure what I'm going to do today. I'm really starting to hit the wall regarding my ability to deal with being around people. An hour or so in the hotel room is just not cutting it anymore.

I'm having a great time getting to know [livejournal.com profile] write_out in person. Maybe I'll just find a corner to quietly hang out with her for a bit when she's not otherwise occupied.

Sounds awesome, and thank goodness for good panelists. I hope you get some down time today!

Can't wait to see the photo. Glad you're having a good time! :)

I had such a fantastic time hanging out with you. I would have loved to have spent even more time together but I had to resist the urge to latch on whenever you were around in order not to be too damn needy.

Aw, bb, you could have latched on a lot more. Introverts are so much easier to spend time with. The ability to sit in companionable silence is such a valuable thing.

It really is. When you were working with Snog, I was just sitting on the bed reading and it was so nice and quiet, yet not lonely.
