Saturday Afternoon Awesome
It wasn't all that long ago that a night downtown at Anthrocon meant a night spent in a foreign land. Yinz were all a little scared of what was happening at that convention. It didn't help that any mentions made by the mainstream media were hesitant and, perhaps, a bit misguided.
All I have to say is, I TOLD YOU SO. I told you it's all good. I told you there's nothing scarier happening at Anthrocon than there is at any other sort of conference.
Welcome to the fun, Pittsburgh.
Rather than be all sorts of hipster about yinz being in my way of furry fun (AND YOU WERE), I have decided to enjoy sharing the fun. Just remember, I TOLD YOU SO. Multiple times.
Besides, now that we all know it's fun and games, I don't have to worry about the internet judging me for taking Mila to some Anthrocon shenanigans. Because of course I did. IT'S FUN.
So Mila. Mila is NOT shy. She sometimes plays shy, but it's a game. Exhibit A.
Mila spotted a furry.
Mila drug her posse (aka "handlers" because that child definitely requires handlers) towards said furry.
Mila was all WOOOOO! FURRY! IMMA TOUCH IT! until said furry turned around then Mila was all WOOOOOO! FURRY! WE'RE GOING TO RESPECT ONE ANOTHER'S RIGHT TO HAVE PERSONAL SPACE!
For reals. She was all in, but she wanted the furries to stay a foot or two away from her. I personally find that to be an acceptable rule, all things considered.
She then went on to play peek-a-boo with this guy for a looooooong time.
Obviously, Alexis does not have the same "respect my space" rules as Mila. But more about that later.
For now, the parade. It was a bit too crowded, but it was pretty fun seeing everybody make the rounds outdoors.
(Pony #3! Now I've seen three of them! I'm still in search of a herd of ponies. It needs to happen.)
Let's definitely do that parade thing again next year, Anthrocon.
