Questions from strangers Strangers may ask if there’s an event going on, what you’re dressed as etc. I often just tell people if it’s a simple answer, however if it’s not I have a few go-to “excuses” to avoid getting into it with people, like: - school project - photoshoot - birthday party

Feeling the eyes on you Seeing people stare at you or feeling people’s eyes on you in a public spaces can be distressing. A distraction can be helpful. I usually take out my phone and text a friend, look around on social media, play a game, call someone or PRETEND to call someone… having something to engage with makes me feel more confident.

Easier in groups Of course there is safety in numbers, so if you can travel in a group with other cosplayers (or a non-cosplaying friend) that can feel a lot better! If you’re heading to an event connect with friends to plan the trip together.

I love Fran from FFXII and really wanted to do a piece focused on her. I did this last spring, hence the yellows and flowers.

Our costumes of Jill Warrick and Clive Rosfield from Final Fantasy 16. I'm holding a flower crown while Clive has his arm gently around me. Photography by Mahou Maddie, taken in a cute little mountain valley at sunset.

Chibis of Date and Aiba from AI: The Somnium Files. Date is holding his gun with one eye open, and Aiba is floating with a mischievous ">:3" face. There are sparkles around them.

Fanart of Frieren, in her art nouveau inspired outfit from the ED. It's a torso-up shot and she's gently holding some Blue Moon Weed flowers just below her chest. She's wearing a crown of them too. Her expression is neutral as she looks off into the distance. The style of the piece is inspired by art nouveau, but cel-shaded with black.

Fanart for "DanDaDan," a Japanese anime and manga series, depicting the two main protagonists. Momo Ayase takes up the bottom half of the image, resting a finger on her face with a green background and cow being abducted by a UFO behind her, while Okarun takes up the top half of the image adjusting his glasses, a red background behind him with Turbo Granny in her original form superimposed behind him. Both characters are cel-shaded with black. There are two doodles of Turbo Granny in her cat form either side of Okarun looking suspicious and relaxed. Framing the picture on the top left and bottom right are film reels with panels from the manga redrawn in each one.
