Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence.

It was crowded, but if you know what you are doing it can be surprisingly easy to meander your way through. Helps when you have two nephews and a brother who are all taller and part the crowds for you though.
But yeah, the line waiting is the worst part. If you ever go and get more than one day, dedicate one to walking around and just looking at everything/buying, and the other day to actual going to panels and interviews and stuff. Makes things easier we’ve found, and that way you are not lugging loot all over the place with you while line waiting.

My country is really just gunning hard for melting the **** down so I'll take getting by.
Though last week was my annual trip to the Fringe [insert generic allusion to seeing Miburo's fiancee behind his back or something here] and that was a lot of fun.
Though it wasn't relaxing and now I'm back at work. Swings, as they say, and roundabouts.
Alright, it's a hot night and I've eaten at a weird time.
I'm going to do some sketches, if you want free [albeit scrappy] art, drop a visual description and a short outline of general character vibes and I /might/ draw it. Visual references welcome.
If you do drop a description, keep it short. Not sure how many I'm going to do, I'll be up for like another four hours and need to cook and eat in that time.
No worries Cleric, you never have. And thanks.
Line waiting does sound a pain, but glad you had some tall family and a plan to enjoy the most of it.
Sorry to hear that Nik. Hopefully you'll get a more relaxing trip soon. And sorry for the country wide meltdown (politics or too hot weather?).
