Lylibellule On février - 28 - 2010

cendrillon An unordinary ball...

Yesterday was the big evening of the ball. During the day, i was both excited to be there and stressed. I’m naturally shy and i’m afraid of crowd. Without forgetting that i would enter in a totally unknown world. You can image with all those things cumulative, that it was a big challenge to me.
Furthermore, you should know that my partner is even more uncomfortable than me in public and he also hate to be surrounded by many people. Still this idea of doing cosplay pleased him a lot.

The official opening was planned to 20h but we had to arrive at 18h30 to take part of a special photoshot organized.

« My Sebastian » came to pick me for 17h30. I had the pleasure to discover him wearing his costume. Perfect! It suits him very well. :-P
On my side, i completed my dress with missing accessories and i manage to wear Ciel hairdressing (with little pig tails). The problem with this hairdressing is it became impossible to wear the hat since the original headband was already too short…. with my tails it didn’t fit at all :-?
I took it with me, to improvise something just in case…

After hardly get in the car…. :lol: , we had 45 minutes to drive to reach the castle. We had a lot of pleasure during that time due to the volume my dress took inside the car. This laugher helped us to relax a bit.
Once to the place, stress started to be back with strength…

Hier c’était le grand soir du bal. Durant la journée, j’étais à la fois excitée d’y être, tout en étant stressée. Je suis de nature timide et la foule me fait peur. Sans compter que j’allais arriver dans un monde totalement inconnu. Vous imaginez bien que toutes ces choses cumulées, étaient pour moi un grand défi à relever.
En outre, vous devez savoir que mon cavalier est encore plus mal à l’aise que moi en public et lui aussi déteste vraiment se retrouver entourer de monde. Pourtant l’idée de faire ce cosplay lui plaisait bien.

L’ouverture officielle du bal se faisait à 20h, mais nous devions arriver vers 18h30 pour pouvoir participer à la séance photo.

« Mon Sebastian » vint me chercher pour 17h30. J’eus enfin le plaisir de le découvrir revêtu de son costume. Parfait! Il lui allait vraiment très bien. :-P
De mon côté, j’avais complété ma robe avec les accessoires manquants et je m’étais coiffée à la manière de Ciel (avec quelques boucles en queue de cochon). Le problème avec ma coiffure, impossible de mettre la chapeau puisque le tour de tête de celui-ci était déjà trop petit au départ… avec mes couettes il ne rentrait plus du tout. :-?
Je le pris quand même avec moi, histoire d’improviser au cas où…

Après m’être difficilement introduite dans la voiture… :lol: , nous avions 45 min de route pour arriver au château. On eu bien du plaisir durant le trajet à cause du volume que prenait ma robe. Cette rigolade nous aida à nous détendre un peu.
Une fois arriver sur place, le stress repris de plus bel…


We moved forward toward the castle entrance where photoshots took place outside.
We invited us to enter. After checking our invitations, we were explained that the welcome drink was on our right, and for photos session, we had to wait until we’ve been called.

So we headed to a free corner of the room. We took pleasure while looking at other people cosplays. Girls were gorgeous in their princess dresses.
Unlucky for me, another girl also wore Ciel’s dress, with the adequate hat … and the wig.  :-| (
CarrotAnime … i’ll keep the in my mind! )

The atmosphere was nice. Music and spotlights cheered up the evening. Still, we were both petrified in our corner. An english photographer took few photos of us. I jumped on this occasion to ask him some advices.

Next, i tried to talk with a couple of persons who were close to us. But the conversation was short.

When you arrive in a crowd where most of people already know each others and all have a common interest, and you, you’re new with as a big handicap, excessive shyness, hard to impose ourselves.
We stayed there 1h, chatting between us and watching other laughing…
Picture that we don’t even had the courage to reach the bar. Our legs were completely paralyzed. :-(
We had to do something!! So, i had the idea to look at the photoshots that was taking place very next to us, on a big stairs inside the castle. I saw it was the second Ciel’s turn and i wanted to see how it was doing.
And what i feared the most happened : a complete panic invaded me seeing her posing so naturally in front of photographers.
I saw myself at her place and i felt my legs collapsing : IMPOSSIBLE, I COULDN’T DO IT!

red fox grosse peur An unordinary ball...
My partner and friend felt also more and more uncomfortable too.

Nous nous avançâmes donc jusqu’à l’entrée du château où se déroulait un photoshot en extérieur.
On nous convia à entrer. Après vérification de nos invitations, on nous expliqua que le bar, où nous attendait le verre de bienvenue, se trouvait sur notre droite, et que pour notre séance photo, il nous fallait patienter jusqu’à ce qu’on nous appelle.

On alla donc s’installer dans un coin de la salle. On prit plaisir à découvrir les costumes des autres cosplayeurs. Les filles étaient ravissantes dans leurs robes de princesse. Manque de chance pour moi, une autre fille portait également la robe de Ciel, avec le chapeau adéquat… et la perruque.  :-| (Carrot anime… je les retiens ceux-là! ).

L’ambiance était sympa. Musique et spots égayaient la soirée. Pourtant, nous étions tétanisés tous les 2 dans notre coin. Un photographe anglophone est venu nous accoster a pris quelques rapides clichés de nous 2. J’ai sauté sur l’occasion pour lui demander quelques conseils en photographie.

Ensuite, j’ai bien essayé de parler avec 2 personnes qui se trouvaient non loin de nous. Mais la conversation fut brève.

Lorsqu’on arrive ainsi parmi une foule où la plupart des gens se connaissent déjà et ont tous un intérêt commun, et que vous, vous êtes nouveau dans le domaine avec comme handicap, une timidité excessive, difficile de s’imposer.
Nous sommes restés là 1h, à discuter entre nous et à regarder les autres rigoler…
Figurez-vous qu’on a même pas réussi à se rendre jusqu’au bar. Nos jambes étaient complètement paralysées. :-(
Il fallait faire quelques chose!! Du coup, j’eus l’idée d’aller jeter un œil à la séance photo qui se déroulait juste à 2 pas de nous, sur les escaliers intérieurs du château. J’avais vu que c’était au tour de l’autre CIEL et par curiosité j’avais envie de voir comment ça se passait.
ET ce que je redoutais le plus arriva : un coup de panique incroyable m’envahit en la voyant poser si naturellement devant les photographes.
Je me vis à sa place et je senti mes jambes s’écrouler sous mon poids. IMPOSSIBLE, JE NE POURRAI PAS! red fox grosse peur An unordinary ball...
Mon ami, lui aussi se sentait de plus en plus mal à l’aise.

It’s at this very moment i decided to run away. Jimmy was very surprised by my reaction. Even if he would have done the photos, he was totally ok with it. :-P
And so we headed to the exit door …. we gave a heatstroke as pretext and the girl guarding the door believed we were taking some fresh air outside. Once outside….. we left discretely toward the car.

Once on the road, we had the most amazing crazy laugh! Running away like this, like thieves, what a rush!
We started to imagine the other persons at the party would thinks we were lost in the park and they would start looking for us with flashlights!
When the stress faded away, since i haven’t eat anything of all day, hunger hit hard on me and we finished the evening to the McDonald drive-in.

Here’s a uncommon evening! And i’m confident that, you didn’t imagined for even a second it would turn like this. Right ??? :D

C’est à ce moment que j’ai décidé de prendre la fuite. Jimmy fut surpris de ma réaction. Mais il n’en demandait pas moins. :-P
Alors on se dirigeât vers la porte de sortie… on prétexta un coup de chaleur et l’ouvreuse cru qu’on allait prendre l’air. Une fois dehors….. on partit en toute discrétion vers la voiture.

Une fois sur la route, on eu le plus incroyable des fous rires! Partir ainsi, comme des voleurs, quel plaisir!
On se prit à imaginer que ceux de la soirée allaient nous croire perdu dans le parc bordant le château et qu’ils allaient partir à notre recherche avec des lampes torches!
Le stress retombé, comme je n’avais pas encore mangé de la journée, la faim se fit ressentir et on termina la soirée au drive-in du Mac Donald.

Voilà une soirée réellement hors du commun! Et dont je suis certaine, vous n’imaginiez pas un seul instant qu’elle déroulerait de la sorte. N’est-ce pas??? :D

Conclusion : This kind of convention is not for me (for us). I don’t felt at ease because i wasn’t in my element at all. I’m way too shy and uncommunicative to impose myself.
It would have been different if i was accompanied with a more extroverted person (
inversely, it also what Jimmy thinks), who dared to go talk to others.
For now, i don’t plan to participate in a cosplay event. I need some times to recover from my emotions. I’m bit disappointed of myself and Jimmy is also disappointed because we could have done an effort to invest us a bit more and go meet the other persons…

But despite that, i don’t regret for a second to have tried! Because deeply, i love to wear my dress. amoureux An unordinary ball...

And still for me, the best moment of this evening was the walk from to car to the castle entrance because i felt like a real princess heading to a ball.

Also thanks to you Jimmy for living this experience with me. You’re an amazing friend!

En conclusion : Ce genre de convention n’est pas faite pour moi (pour nous). Je ne m’y suis pas sentie à l’aise car je n’étais pas du tout dans mon monde. Je suis de nature bien trop timide et renfermée pour pouvoir m’imposer. Cela aurait surement été différent si j’avais été accompagnée d’un personne plus extravertie (inversement, c’est aussi ce que Jimmy pense), qui aurait osé aller vers les autres.
Dans l’immédiat, je ne compte plus participer à un cosplay. Il me faut un peu de temps pour me remettre de mes émotions. Je suis un peu déçue de moi-même car je me dis que j’aurais pu faire l’effort de m’investir un peu plus et d’aller à la rencontre des autres…

Mais malgré ça, je ne regrette en rien d’avoir tenter le coup! Car au fond, j’adooore porter ma robe. amoureux An unordinary ball...

Et d’ailleurs pour moi, le meilleur moment de la soirée fut la marche de la voiture jusqu’à l’entrée du château car je me suis sentie comme une vrai princesse se rendant à un bal.

Merci à toi Jimmy d’avoir tenter l’expérience avec moi. T’es un ami formidable!

Now, a few photos took clumsily… / A présent, les quelques photos prises à l’arrache…

chateau

car 2

ball

ball 1

ball 2

ball 3

My partner… the photo is completely blurry and poorly framed which is a result of my huge stress.

Mon cavalier.. la photo est complètement floue et mal cadrée… ce qui résulte de mon très grand stress.

Sebastian

And finally me… totally uncomfortable but a big smile on my face. And the photo is blurry since my partner was shaking as much as me. LoooooL

Et enfin, moi… toute mal à l’aise mais le sourire aux lèvres malgré tout. Et photo floue aussi puisque mon cavalier tremblait tout autant que moi. LoooL

Ciel 1

Now the opinion of my partner about this evening :

I don’t have much to add, Lyli described this evening very well. And a uncommon evening indeed since our escape was totally unexpected :)
At first i imagined to have all the pain in the world to feel at ease and i mostly feared the dancing part of the party, as i always been terrified thinking about dancing in front of many people.
Lyli didn’t leave me time to be scared of that lol :)

We all have our big fears and hers was the first one on the list :P
That said i don’t blame her for anything since in the end, we laughed a lot, i felt great in my costume and i was accompanied with this evening beautifulest lady (and it’s a totally objective opinion of course, i see you coming)

And mostly, i’m honored she thought about me to accompany her even if she knows about my difficulties and reluctances for this kind of events.
Two shy persons together for a first experience like this don’t fit really well i guess ha ha

Sorry the photos are blurry, we underestimate our shakings :)

In the end, this is a wonderful souvenir for both of us and for me it’s the most important. As to try again…. we’ll see that later, if we had to participate to another convention in the future it will be as anonymous visitors :D

Et pour finir, l’avis de mon partenaire sur la soirée :

Je n’ai pas grand chose à rajouter, Lyli ayant très bien raconté cette soirée. Et une soirée hors du commun en effet puisque notre fuite fût totalement inattendue :)
Je m’imaginais avoir toute les peines du monde à me sentir à l’aise et je craignais surtout la partie dansante de la soirée, ayant toujours été effrayé par l’idée de danser sous le regard de tout le monde.
Lyli ne m’a pas laissé le temps d’avoir peur pour ça lol :)

On a chacun nos grande frayeur et la sienne était la première sur la liste :P
Cela dit je ne lui en veux pas du tout puisqu’au final on a beaucoup rigolé, je me suis senti beau dans mon costume et j’était accompagné par la plus belle demoiselle de la soirée. (et c’est un avis totalement objectif bien entendu je vous vois venir)

Et puis surtout je suis honoré qu’elle ai pensé à moi pour l’accompagnée malgré qu’elle connait bien mes difficultés et mes réticences pour ce genre d’évènement.
Deux personnes timides ensembles pour une première expérience de ce type ne convient pas vraiment je suppose ha ha

Désolé que les photos soient floues, on a sous-estimé nos tremblement :)

Au final, cela nous fait un sacré bon souvenir à tous les deux et pour moi c’est le plus important. Quand à recommencer …. on verra plus tard lol, si on doit participer à une convention à l’avenir ça sera en simple visiteur anonyme :D

    • Lylibellule dit :

      Sur qu’avec toi, l’ambiance aurait été différente? :) T’es une vrai ravagée à ta façon. Et tu sais que c’est pour ça que je t’adore.
      Pas de soucis, je veux bien que tu sois mon prochain cavalier… si autre fois il y a. :P

      Normalement le site officiel du bal devrait proposer des photos de nous 2… mais elles ne sont pas encore en ligne.

  3. Nopy dit :

    lol, I’ve never heard of anyone « escaping » from a cosplay event, but then again it’s understandable considering how uncomfortable you were there. I hope you and Jimmy will continue cosplaying in the future.

  4. Katsura-chan dit :

    LOL sorry it’s unkind to laugh in this situation but this is the most unexpected turn of event ever :D
    Sweetheart you have to tell me everything about this evening because i’m burning inside with a lot of questions.

    Well i’m mocking but i would probably couldn’t do a better job, in fact i don’t even dare to try so congratulations for, at least going that far.

    Anyway you look gorgeous and awesomely cute, your partner is hell of a lucky guy and i’m probably not the only one to think that. Of course Jimmy you look great as well :)

    I hope to see more photos of both of you in the future. Don’t force yourself into event like this before being sure you’ll be able to support it.
    I perfectly know how you felt since i’m like you.

    What’s important is that you had a great time after all ^^ (i hope you did !)

    • Lylibellule dit :

      Forcing myself, no i won’t do it. If one day i do a convention again it’s that because i feel capable of doing it. For now, i prefer to cosplay in my bedroom :)

  5. moemoekyun dit :

    congratulation :D
    for that ciel cosplay kinda lucky. I did saw a cosplay event with 5 people wear same costume O_O;;(ques the character too popular)
    something like this always happen for the first time. well I still don’t dare do cosplay myself >_< to embarrassing
    anyway no photo together like in the anime ^^ ??

    • Lylibellule dit :

      What’s worse is that there was only 54 participants… and only 2 duplicate : Ciel Phantohive. Well, it’s no big deal.
      Our dresses were not exactly the same.
      We didn’t had the courage to ask somebody to take a photo of both of us with our camera, but official photos should be online soon.
      Normally it should have at least one of us. I’ll warn you :)

  6. Chag dit :

    Just for this occasion, I will bust out a personal embarrassing cosplay fact:

    A few years back, I bleached my hair from black to blond for cosplay. It burned my scalp off. There were burn marks and scabs all over the place. I couldn’t shower without fearing the stings from the wounds for a week.

    Case in point: don’t feel bad — at least you didn’t physically mutilate yourself over cosplay!

    • Ningyo dit :

      Oh man, dang, poor you D:

      and Lyli, it was not only romantic to enter the ball, but also to escape it. That first picture made me arrive at that conclusion. So yeah, that’s a surprising turn of events, but don’t feel bad about anything. If it made you guys feel uncomfortable it was only the right thing to do.

      Anyhow, y’all looked wonderful. The mood of the ballroom looks pretty well set, too.

      • Lylibellule dit :

        At the moment i was a bit ashamed to run away like this…. but if i forced myself to stay, i would have loss my smile and in the end i would have been perceived as an unpleasant person. ^^ I think it would have been worse.
        Anyway, i apologized using the organizes forum. It was the least i can do to be polite. And in the end, no one blamed me :)

    • Lylibellule dit :

      OMG you really had suffered…. hairs burned it’s horrible! o^0 I don’t think i would tempt this kind of experience. I rather buy a wig, it’s safer :)

  7. lu-k dit :

    Mais c’est quoi ce cadre déjà? pour mettre les néophytes mal à l’aise il n’y a pas mieux je trouve =/
    Ala ala quelle mésaventure. Mais bon, tu sera mieux armée pour la prochaine, hein? Ca ne peut pas s’arrêter là ~_^

    • Lylibellule dit :

      Le cadre n’était pas trop mal, je trouvait ça mêm plutot bien l’idée de bal dans un château. Mais bon, ça n’a pas vraiment aidée à aller vers les autres.
      M’arreter peut-être pas.. de toute façon mon amie taupette ne voudra pas que j’en reste là… LoooooL

  8. softz dit :

    Hmm.. I bet it was a mixture of excitement and embarrassment? It’s quite common actually when you go to an event and try to strike up conversation but ended up with short ones. It seems so difficult to blend in at times. That happens to me too, always. But again, what is most important is that you have a good time. It can be seen that you have a great time with Sebastian. I believe it would be better next time :) Cheers!

    • Lylibellule dit :

      I was very excited to go out dressed up like this indeed. :) On this matter i didn’t felt any discomfort. But the crowd and talking to people that was scared me.
      Clearly if there’s a next time, it should go along better… at least i hope. ^^

  9. Steve Chen dit :

    Cosplay events……..the Mecca of every anime fan. I’ve been to several such but only to observe and not have an ounce of courage to actually participate with a costume(maybe in the future a Biohazard Tyrant costume would fit me wellhehehe). Well Ms Lyli, despite your discomfort you’ve got still joined in and that my dear is 50% of the battle(the other half if knowing………..from an old G.I. Joe public service announcement… »Knowing is half the battle so I surmise trying is the other half?)

    • Lylibellule dit :

      If one day you do cosplay, can i have a photo of you whatever the costume you wear. Even the one of ‘Big bad wolf ». ;) ;)
      Indeed, i did the first step (50% of the work) but the remaining 50% are the hardest to my eyes. Still i know i’m capable. ^^

  10. Persocom dit :

    Sounds like quite an adventure. Things might not have gone as well as hoped but at least you had the courage to try it, and it’s great that you can still love the dress and wear it even if it’s not at a fancy ball. I’m sure if I went to something like this I’d be way too nervous and end up leaving early too. At least you got to experience something new and have good memories despite the unexpected unpleasantness.

      Wether i try it again or not, i plan to buy more beautiful cosplay dresses. To dress up like that provide me pleasure since i was always attracted to have a princess dress. :)

  11. chubbybots dit :

    Ah I’ll definitely be stress out in a situation such as this. I am also quite an introvert so kudos to you for daring to make this first step!! I remember covering a cosplay event last year during AFA09 I saw 6 different Ranka lees and 4 sheryl nomes in one event ^^.

    Too bad you didn’t take a photo of you and your sebastian together ^^ Would have made quite a couple hehe!

    • Lylibellule dit :

      So you are introverted too… I think blogger otaku, we are all a bit even a lot like this.
      And no, we didn’t had the opportunity to ask for a photo of both of us together with my camera, but normally it should be a few displayed on the official website in the next few days. I’ll warn you :)

  12. divinelight dit :

    I don’t know how shaky you are, but I have quite the same feeling when I compete in game tournament for my first time (Soul Calibur, a PS2 game). I couldn’t do many attacks and defends, because my hands are so shaky!!!

    To my surprise, I saw my opponent like that too lol, so we just fight like children play the game >_<.

    The ball looks nice, I think that will be a nice experience for you and your friends. We have some cosplay events here too, but I've never had the chance to do that, because have no friends who like to cosplay.

    Ahahahahahaha le vilain coup que vous avez fait !!! n’empêche que vous avez fait très fort sur ce coup, vous avez eût le cran au moins de tenter le coup, et même si ce monde n’est pas fait pour vous, ça fera toujours une anecdote à raconter en se marrant ^^
    Par contre qu’est-ce que vous êtes choux dans vos cosplays, vraiment kawaii mademoiselle ;) même si le stress se voit un peu sur ton sourire forcé lol

    • Lylibellule dit :

      LoooL… ouep! ça c’est un coup dont on se rappellera : les 2 fuyards du bal cosplay. :D
      Mon sourire n’était pas du tout forcé voyons! Quand je suis nerveuse je ris toujours… et donc là, c’était un beau grand sourire nerveux. LoooL

    vous avez fait un pas que je n’aurais jamais osé moi :D
    bravo à tous les 2 !!! même si vous avez fui comme Cendrillon à minuit (comme le démontre la photo judicieusement choisie ;) )

    ça restera un très bon moment pour tous les 2 et vous vous en souviendrez encore longtemps ;)

  15. Blowfish dit :

    How come I am imaging this as some kind of Romatic Comedy Anime Scene where the Female Lead and the Male Lead are heading to the long anticipated Ball and just back off in the last minute and run off because both find it uncomfortable to be there and have some fun with their true selves?

    Hmm…Maybe I should notice this and send it to Japan? XD

    I guess everyone knows the uneasy feeling when theyre doing something new they are unsure off.The insecurity you feel might spiral out of control when things arent going as planned and you cant find contact to other people.
    You end up standing in your small group of two and the uneasyness grows into some evil omniscient beeing that grabs you by your throat and makes you snapping for air.
    The best thing you can do is to join such events in a bigger group of people you know well and feel comfortable with.This way you dont feel awkward even though you dont make contact with other people.

    You still have my utmost respect for even showing yourself like this on the internet.This requires some balls and uh wait that sounds wrong…That requires some guts to do.Its especially impressive that you do it even though youre looking good because that might result in some unwanted attention by the male popularity or hate by people that think that you wanna score points with your good looks.

    In the end your little story,which actually is reality reads like a sweet little story out of a book/movie whatever.

    BTW Did you eat At McDonalds in your dress?That would have been totally awesome!
    And most imprtantly did your butler serve you your fries? XD

    I can understand that you dont feel like cosplaying anytime soon after that sudden attack of panic but its quite a shame since I hoped to see Milady and her Burtler at Japanday ;D

    • Lylibellule dit :

      True that if we had go with a group of people who already did cospay, or simply, more at ease in a crowd, it would have helped us to relax and enjoy the situation. (You should have come Blowfish… you could have been our savior :D )
      As to dare show myself on a photo, it needed me less of courage to do it compared for the bal. LooooL
      I admit that i enjoy myself in my beautiful dress and i wanted to share it with my readers. Far from me to try getting a certain amount of new popularity using my appearance because, well i’m not ugly but i’m not a top model either. People to be hateful for this, i say « shit! leave it already! »
      For McDo we used the drivein and ate inside the car. Clearly if i entered inside like this i would have attracted all attention and it could have been fun :P
      Since May, i guess i will recover to my emotions, i think … so nothing is all lost :)

    « Unlucky for me, another girl also wore Ciel’s dress, with the adequate hat … and the wig »

    Darn! Although since it seems like it’s anime oriented it was probably bound to happen. I wouldn’t let that bother you much. The dress looks real nice. ALSO that first image you have of Cinderella is REALLY lovely.

      It was unlucky mostly since we weren’t numerous (barely 54 persons). It wasn’t the fact there was another CIEL who preoccupied me, but i would have loved to have a full cosplay myself :(

  17. Arch dit :

    Ah ah ah !
    Super ! génial ! Quel rebondissement ! Du grand art ! Ah ah très marrant (je ne me moque pas hein, je n’en suis moins même pas capable). Quand même, le coup de la fuite c’était bien joué ! Et puis le principal c’est le souvenir qu’il en reste et que vous ayez passé une bonne soirée.

    Tu retentera peut être un jour ! Le mieux serait que tu te fasses plein d’amis cosplayeurs/euses (t’en as peut être déjà) et que tu organises toi-même. Moi de stresses et bonne soirée en perspective ;)

    awww little shy princess *hugs* what a day! things didnt go as planned but im glad to hear you were able to laugh at the experience and carry on ^^ diving head first was very brave… and i would have done the same in that situation, or be to petrified to run lol being photoed one couple at a time sounds super stressful as all eye would be focus on you O_O there are no shots with both of you together?

    you looked very lovely and so cute with your little pig tails and big smile! i found the pic of you in the car with huge dress very amusing Lol also your really good at storytelling, i was very immersed in your writing :P

      For a couple photo, as i said to Moe and Chubby, normally it should be some on the official website in the next few days. I’ll let you know :)

    The event looks really fun ^^ And I can just feel the adrenaline when both of you are running away from the ball :D must be really exciting!

    Franchement, je n’aurais jamais imaginé une tournure pareille, ça a le mérite d’être original au moins. Et je suis sur que ça vous marquera plus que si vous aviez réussis à bien vous intégrer à la soirée ^^
    En tout cas, le cadre avait l’air superbe, ça me fait penser à l’organisation d’un jeu de rôle grandeur nature ^^
    Par contre, les photos donnent une impression d’un rassemblement élitiste, bref loin de l’ambiance qu’on connait en général de ce genre de rassemblement.
    Et même si tu n’as pas l’air à l’aise sur la photo, elle te va bien cette robe et je suis fan de tes petites couettes xD

      Je pense que c’est surtout cette impression que tu décris très bien qui est une raison de mon mal être. J’avais l’impression d’être une roturière m’introduisant parmi
      les nobles.
      Merci du compliment JC :) « blush »

    You sound a little disappointed, at least that’s how it came across. I think both you and Jimmy have done really well though; and you both look great. Going in to a new environment and trying to mingle with a small group of people who appeared to know each other is very daunting.

    Escaping to McDonalds, awesome :D I loved that part. :lol:

    It’s good that you look on it as a positive experience and it hasn’t put you off cosplaying. The next time should be a little easier :D .

      I think the next time it will be a cosplay in a convention not based only on cosplay where you can wear your costume without being forced to go talk to others.
      This evening stays memorable :)

    Even though the event seemed different from what you’re used to, it sounds like you had a lot of fun. ^ ^
    Everything’s an experience, right?

    I guess I would have done the same if I feel uncomfortable in an event. Lol. But it looks like you had a lot of fun even though you guys ran away. ^^

    l’important c’est d’essayer ! si ca te tente tu pourras ressayer plus tard, pour montrer ta jolie robe à tout le monde ! ^^
    en tout cas, comme vous l’avez tous les deux dit, je ne m’attendais pas du tout a cette chute :P j’ai beaucoup rigolé, j’aime beaucoup le fait que vous en rigoliez :) parce que c’est ce qu’il faut faire !
    le cosplay me tenterait bien aussi, mais je pense que si un jour j’en faisais, ca serait à la japan expo ou un truc du genre ^^ ou tu n’es pas obligé de parler et de paraitre pour les autres ;)

    • Lylibellule dit :

      Sur que si je me ré-essaye au cosplay ce ne sera plus dans un endroit de ce genre mais comme toi dans un événement comme la Japan… :)

  27. blur dit :

    Lol. Ignore my previous comment. That was before I read this.

    Still a good experience I’d say. These are what some of the best memories are made of. ;p

    Well done attempt though.. Cheers!

    KUDOS! I think just having the courage to go and and wear your cute cosi is very brave indeed. And to be able to stay that long @_@
    If I were you I don’t think I will be able to enter at all >_<

    <–EXTREMELY SHY!

      Thanks. True courage i needed a lot. Shyness is not easy to live with when you arrive in a place where everybody know each other.
      And so you’re shy too…. i have a feeling that many bloggers are shy.
