Hey all you Tsubasa junkies! We're planning a meet-up over the summer~!
What ideas does everyone have? I was thinking a trip to the beach or somewhere watery would be fun but it would be hard for the crossplayers...
I'd like one of every character if possible, though doubles and triples or even quads would be fine. If we did have one of every character though, then we could make a LARP out of it or something. Not that we couldn't anyway...
We can also add the Holic cast if we do it so there's more characters.
-
Sakura - Jacob_Blackfeather
Syaoran - Kori123(?)
Fai - april_22
Kurogane - april_22's BF
Yuko -
Watanuki -
Domeki -
Himawari -
Tomoyo - Kori123(?)
Mokona/Sol -
Mokona/Larg - Titus_Love_Doll
(Any other characters, just say so!)
-
I will come as sakura~
-
Alright! Then I'll probably attempt Syaoran or Tomoyo
-
Depends on when you do it, but if my Black Mokona and I (White Mokona) are done with our costumes when you do, we'd love to.
-
I'd love too though I'm a cross player and doing anything with water wouldn't work. My costume isn't very water proof at all and actually I was told to stay away from water...
Though if we go somewhere else and its not too hot, I would love to get together with everyone. I'd be Fai and my boyfriend would be Kurogane.
-
@Chibachi Nero - Alrighty X3
@April - Well I was thinking of like swim wear kind of things but yeah...crossplaying would be tough.
What other things would you guys want to do? Picnics are always fun. Theme parks are interesting too. I'm not really sure what we'd want to do. Zoo trip? XD I have no idea.
-
Black mokana when i get it done
-
Expect me as Yuko!
-
Alright! Also, Emily (my Fai) and I were thinking it'd be fun for a separate meet-up than this one that's a Tsubasa slumber party. PJs, Tsubasa anime/OVAs/movie, games, etc.
I bought some fun 'modern' clothes for Syaoran today too.
-
Slumber parties are always fun! But my Parents would have to meet you
Fun! I still need to think about what to wear for yuko
-
That sounds like fun! I'd have to check with my parents, but I'll try to get my wig/ears/jewel done for Mokona first so I can pull together a modern cosplay if this happens.
-
Still not sure where the Slumber Party would be at though... I wish it could be at my house but my room mates wouldn't go for it. If we can't find a house to do it at, we can probably settle with just doing a pajama night down town or even put some money together and (it sounds weird) get a hotel room for a night. I'm trying to think of something because it'd be lots of fun XD
-
I'd offer up my apartment but I'm in Canada and that might be a little hard for everyone to get too.
Gonna go look for some causal Fai and Kuro Clothes soon, and possibly some I can get wet. XD
-
Right...Canada might be tough. I would totally do it but it'd be more a weekend trip not a day trip and with the work I do, it'd be tough.
For crossplaying swim wear Syaoran, I found some cool swim trunks then just a t-shirt to go over. It works pretty well.
-
Sadly there is no way I could get to Canada.
A cheep hotel would be alright as long as my parents meet you guys and possible stay in a room right next door.
I want a Watanuki now!!! Yuko chilling in the sun ordering him around for stuff.
-
Yeah... Canada would be a no... We'll think of something though! It's not like there would be a TON of us anyway. But yeah, right now a hotel would probably be the better of them.
I wish I could say I would be your Watanuki, but alas, I'm Syaoran. I am going to double as Watanuki at the con though.
-
I know of an awesome place in Lincoln City. It's almost like having your own house. I went there a lot as a kid. It's the Hideaway
It's ok this is more Tsubasa themed anyway. And I might still boss you around
-
Hm, I may need to look into it then. PM me a link or something?
And yeah. This is more Tsubasa themed but I group Tsubasa and Holic together since...well...they are XD
-
hey if it's in lincon city I would need a ride lol
-
I'm not sure if they have a website, let me go check.
Here it is! http://www.oregon-coastdirectory.com/lodging/oregoncoast/central/lincolnc/hideaway/hideaway.htm
Sadly Jacob I'm not sure if I could give it to you, since my parents will be driving me I'm sure they aren't too keen on driving someone they don't know
-
I could more than likely drive you but it'll depend. I'll see what I can do.
I think that the Hideaway would be perfect if only it wasn't a 2 hour drive and it's only open Sunday through Thursday and I have work and school. I can get time off for it but it wouldn't be until after Summer term which is after Kcon.
I'll keep it in mind though for further trips...
Does anyone else have any local ideas?
-
Oh yeah I forgot that they had weird hours...
I do know of a cute bed and breakfast by Lloyd Center but I'm not sure how much it costs.
-
Linky link?
-
http://www.lionrose.com/
It might be pricey since it's summer.
But I stayed there once and loved it
*is currently looking for other places*
Motel 6 seems good, It's cheep (about $60 a night, cheep if we all pitch in) and not probably not sleazy.
-
Why a hotel again??
-
We were talking about a hotel because we weren't sure if anyone had a house we could do it at.
-
you mean I meet up or pictures sorry for the stupid questions but I haven't been paying attention for a few days.
-
Nerdy Tsubasa slumber party
-
ahh now that sounds fun :3
-
I think it might be a good idea to plan the slumber party as the second get together rather then the first. Just to make sure we get along. ^^
I think the beach still might be a good idea. Just as a 'break the ice' meeting.
-
Yeah, And I like the beach
Even though here at the Oregon coast it's never sunny....or warm...or dry
-
I agree, April. Plus I think parents might go for it more if we met ahead of time, for us underage kids. I know mine would.
-
Yeah, I was planning to do the sleep over as the second meet-up anyway. I just was seeing if anyone would be interested or have any idea where to do it if we went through with it.
As for the first meet-up. Just some random park or something could be fun. I wouldn't mind a beach trip though. X3 It'd be fun.
Also! My car can hold up to five people (counting the driver) if anyone needs a ride but I will charge for some gas just because it's getting spendy. Thankfully it's going down but still... I might charge five or ten dollars depending on how many people and what not.
-
I would try my best to get the money for you!
-
<3 Thanks!
Yeah, I wouldn't charge much and I'd feel like a jerk for asking but man... Giving people rides all the time for free gets costy after a while.
-
that it is that's why I would try to get teh money for you
-
I know how you feel.
Every K-con my friends stay at my house and my parents ask them for a bit to help pay for food and gas. If you were a jerk you wouldn't even offer a ride.
We could also go to ...ENCHANTED FOREST<3
I love that place
-
Well I figure if I want people to show up for something I plan, then I should do something to help people actually get there. But I don't WANT to go too far out of my way XD But I will if need be. Not saying anyone is a bother.
Enchanted Forest would be fun! I've never been there... We planned a Haruhi Shoot there once but it never happened because it would have been a 3 and a half hour drive for me and my parents were against me driving 7 hours in one day just for a day trip.
But we could go! It just costs money. But it's not awful.
-
It is the best place ever.
It might cost a bit for gas but to get in it isn't that expensive and you only need tickets for the few rides that they have there.
It would be fun to go there when they have a show going!
-
That sounds fine by me. Does anyone else have anything to say?
-
Depends if this is 3.5 hours from Seattle. If it is I won't be able to make it.
Getting to Seattle is about 2.5 hours for me as it is. Tack on another 3.5 and that's 6 hours. Not sure if I'm up for that. Sorry guys.
-
Yeah... For you April, it'll be difficult because getting here is quite the chore. That's one reason I suggested the sleepover. Then you'd have a day or two to hang out so it'd be worth it. Rather than two hours or something.
-
The problem is I don't have a ride nor the money...
-
I could still offer the ride but I don't know what to do about the money.
-
I probably couldn't offer much in the way of gas money, sorry, I'm a bit tight on cash at the moment. :/ Where do you all live? Maybe we could find somewhere close.
-
I think hanging out without spending lots of money id the best way to do it find a park somewhere and hang there
-
I live in North Portland.
-
Me too. For a first meetup, someplace we could all get ourselves to sounds ideal, so we can get a chance to get to know each other a little before we start making more involved plans.
-
Yeah, that's always a good plan.
-
The water front in prortland would be nice very nice indeed we can go in casual clothing maybe if thats fine o.o i mean i love water the beach would be hard for me .. since sadly .. I m afriad of water that gose over my head ;-;
-
Aww XD Yeah that'd be fine by me. It's close and easy.
-
The waterfront sounds good. We could do a casual shoot and get to know each other - I'm going to prioritize getting my wig and making the ears/jewel, and once I have those a casual White Mokona would be alarmingly easy for me to throw together, considering the staggering amount of white clothing I own, but it'll be a bit longer before I have the full lolita-style dress made. And the water front is pretty easy to get to for those of us who live in/around Portland, and it's really lovely.
-
yush very lovely to go there instead of doing a big trip to the beach thats gas money and other things some cant afford .
-
that water front is a beautiful place to do it not to mention easier for people to get there and meet up
-
So then we agree to do a water front meet-up?
What time and day do we want?
-
noon is usually a good time to meet up :3
-
True dat.
-
18th is nice I mean theres the cosplay photo shoot that day but that be good as well o.o becuse we can get photos done and go to the water front and hang
-
Haha so this is in Portland now? Sorry guys, we won't be able to make it. Have fun though. ^^
-
Aww... We'll have to do another meet-up with you April <3
I'll be done the 18th through the 27th so I won't be able to until then... OTL I'm sorry. You guys could do it without me ;w;
-
Aww... We'll have to do another meet-up with you April <3
I'll be done the 18th through the 27th so I won't be able to until then... OTL I'm sorry. You guys could do it without me ;w;
\

-

I'll be done the 18th through the 27th so I won't be able to until then... OTL I'm sorry. You guys could do it without me ;w;
I was thinking maybe actually in july. like the 5th or something
-
Aww -is hugged-
That should be fine...I'll have to check my work schedule when I get back. I'm hoping to get some color so I'm not a painfully pale Syaoran...
-
Aww -is hugged-
That should be fine...I'll have to check my work schedule when I get back. I'm hoping to get some color so I'm not a painfully pale Syaoran...
-gives Syaoran mokana make up to make him dark!-
-
>A< Thank you~!
-
Is sometime in a july a good plan????
-
I probably won't be able to do anything until late July at the earliest, unfortunately. :/ Maybe we could have several photoshoots? I don't wanna stop anyone from meeting up earlier.
-
July is pretty busy with holidays hmmm...
-
I'm free anytime I'm not working. Just give me the heads up and I can ask it off. By late July I'll have school but I don't have school Tuesdays and Fridays.
-
Hmmm we could do it on my birthday in august :D
-
When's your birthday? XD
-
augest is no go augest 7-15 we are taking a family trip
-
it's the sevenths and i have to plans on my birthday and what would fill me with joy is if we did a tsubasa meet :3
-
Sounds like Titus can't do the seventh, so maybe if we planned one on the fifth? Titus, could you make that? It's a Friday, so Kori would be free. And we could celebrate your birthday a couple day early, Jacob. I'll bring cupcakes. XD
-
if you guys wannah do it the 7th i have no issue. i can always go to the next one. 5th i have something with my mema going to long view to help my auntie out.
-
It wouldn't be as fun without you though Titus.
-
I just really want to do something for my birthday it's my 18th and I think it's a good Idea i don't care if we do it earlier then that of course :3
-
naw its okay i have alot to do mt cuz wedding commin up annd my uncel and aunt want we to take mty hourse to train for barrel raceing befor the 4th of july then theresd jambery weekend end of july this is more family mounth you guys can do tsubasa in wonder than june 29th at mt part
-
I was already planning on going to that the only issue have is the buses don't run on the weekends down to the park...
-
Lol. At this point it seems we'll have our meet-up just at the con XD
-
well we could do a smaller meet-up if not a lot of people can go.
-
Well, maybe we could do a smaller meetup for Jacob's birthday on the seventh, and then meet up at the con with all of us, and then at some point after that do the sleepover/beach trip/etc?
-
Yeah. I would like to do a mini-meet up at least once before the actual con. Then after the con we should know each other enough to do bigger trips like the beach or the sleepover.
-
yeah sounds like a good plan
-
Good idea -thumbs up-
-
So a small one for now all we need to do is plan a date
-
Sounds good.
-
What we need to do is find dates everyone is free please can you guys state them i will compile them up so we can choose a date that works for us all
-
I'm mostly free - I know we're going out of town for a week or so late in August, but I'm not sure of the exact dates. I'll ask my mom when she gets home. But We'll definitely be in town for the 7th if you wanted to do it on your birthday. I think that sounds like a lot of fun.
-
Alright so we have the 7th my birthday :3
-
That should be fine by me X3
-
alright so the seventh at the waterfront at 12?
-
Sounds good! I'll make Tsubasa-themed cupcakes.
-
Boo-yah! One question though! ...where's the Waterfront?
-
It's by the river that cuts through Portland, downtown. It's where the various festivals/celebrations in Portland are usually held.
So I guess we'll figure out a more exact location closer to the actual date? Because the Waterfront is kind of big...
-
we could meet at directors park :3
-
I do have Summer school that day, but it ends about noonish so I would just be late
I forget that you are new to portland Kori, yeah it's where the city fair was during the Rose festival
-
Okay, that's where I thought it was but I wasn't sure if there was an EXACT start location or anything.
-
Hey guys, sorry for the double posting. Does anyone know what's going on for this? ^-^;;
-
Here my birthday thread if that helps it's on facebook and it's for you tsubasa people too
http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=226817617349422
-
I just found out it's in august, I got a summer camp that takes up most of the day
-
So it's not exactly a Tsubasa meet-up but we want as many Tsubasa people as possible! I know I'll be there as Syaoran.
-
Jacob, I'll add you on Facebook. So are we still aiming for the waterfront, or...? Plans seem to be changing. ^^;
-
I don't know what's going on anymore to tell you the truth.
-
Anyplace i am actually looking for a place that would be good i like the waterfront though
-
..... How did I miss this? D:
I might be able to go, since Sundays are when my mom's off from work. As of cosplay, I'm actually willing to be either Maru or Moro (if not, I can be Watanuki orz) =w= d
-
If you went as Watanuki, you would make me one happy Kori... Syaoran would rape that OWO
