Weapons? ...Two. Three, if I put an edge on my kukri, the other two being the warhammer and bayonet. Also a machete and handaxe, but they're tools. If you count terrible wallhangers that my parents bought me thinking I was going through a phrase; I've got two poorly made replicas of Kit Rae swords, two crappy sets of samurai blades (both of which are at least partially broken), a wallhanger Jian, a fantasy dagger with a Gorgon-Head pommel that -could- be classified as a real weapon (Is about a foot long, but with about an 8-inch blade, so it can maintain integrity despite being made of Stainless Steel, is -incredibally- sharp) if not a practical one because of its hilt-heaviness, a short staff that pulls apart to reveal two blades, and an ornamental scale-down 'excalibur' with a dragon-shaped holder, that's about stilleto size. I've got my sword (high-carbon, fully functional, but only for re-enactment) and two polypropylene bokuto/bokken down in Victoria to be sent up when I get the money to have it done.

You, too, could have a trophy case this intense! Participate in Iron Avatarist! Do it, or I'll start sending you drunken PMs.

I am not brave enough to say something outrageous and be serious. You'll be happier if you assume I'm joking.
Stoats legit King Arthur by The Succubus.
The only picture I have of myself of any value (apart from the hundreds with my horse) would be the one where my boyfriend kept telling me to hold pose while he "got the camera ready"... when he was, in fact, waiting for the wave to hit me before he took the picture.
My expression was still frozen from before. The shock hadn't set in yet.

So, I found a photo of what happened to me courtesy of the girl, believe it was taken about a week ago. Just now uploaded it while fiddling with the camera to get optimum distance for recording from.

I've always considered breakfast to be evil. Looking at me with it's bacon-smile, and it's sunny-side-up eyes. I know it's plotting something.

Yeah, they wouldn't let me check it in a mirror, leaving me with only the option of taking a photo of it. *shrug* People are silly.

...is anybody else even slightly disturbed by this?
Weird underwear is nothing new to me. My brother has/had (dunno if he still has them) a pair of Horton Hears a Who boxers. He loved them way too much, which made it extra hilarious when he accidently stabbed himself in the leg through them and got blood all over it. At least, I thought it was funny

He's your brother, of course you find it amusing.
All of my boxers are either monochrome or plaid, so I've got nothin' special.
I need a picture of me sans pants, though. Because they're overrated (shorts are still cool, though).

Hiya, guys!
I've been absent for quite a time... sorry about that, but had to manage myself between university work and finishing the costumes for the Comicon (I made both mine and my best friend's, and I also helped another friend of mine with two commissioned costumes XD)...
as a token of my apology, here are some pics:
The first day I chose a costume that was comfortable and already finished, so that I could enjoy the fair to its most...
Spoiler
So, again, me as Dark-Link, my best friend as Link, and her boyfriend being the blonde idiot he is behind me -you can't really see it from this pic, but he made a white wooden arrow with black edges and followed us around shouting "Liiiiiink! I'm gonna click you to death!" XD
The second and third day my friends and I dressed up as characters from the manga Kuroshėtsuji... this is the costume I made for my friend, who was Finian, the little super-strong gardener...
Spoiler
Incredibly cute, isn't she?
And then there's my own costume, as the Indian prince Soma...
Spoiler
It took 40 minutes for the make-up on my whole torso... and please ignore my sister's shoes, I needed to appear taller than I am and those were the only ones who could give off the whole gay prince appearance... XD
And they fit surpisingly well with the costume. Moreover, when I was standing you couldn't see exactly how high the heel was. X°D

Albis- Confusing me since 2010.
Nice costumes by the way. I envy your costume making talent. Give me some plz. kthxbai.
On the plus side, I do have a miniature lightsaber.
Spoiler
This is going up there with my Star Wars monopoly set. It even changes colours from blue to red depending on which way you twist the handle. You do have to hold down the button though, which is awkward. .-.
@ Nameless: LOL... the prince costume took slightly more than a week (not counting the days I didn't work on it because of university) while my friend's costume was made super-fast in two days!
....that miniature lightsaber is awesome! I have a friend who is a hardcore star wars fan... I don't know what he'd do if I shot the pic to him XD
@ Jacklu: thanks ^^ I worked very hard on the costume, and then had to be covered in dark fondation from head to hipbones (arms and hands included)... fortunately, it was water-proof, sweat-proof, anything-proof it felt like my own skin... so much so that some friends came to me and asked "hey! you weren't this tan yesterday, what did you do?!?" X°D
@ Serps: ...huh? *pondering* I've never been a ranger before....

Proof. Finally.
Regardless, you should do a Baka to Test to Shōkanjū theme next. No reason why...
