Well, a lot of people really talked up MFF when I was at RF, so I was thinking about making my way out there if I could get all my ducks in a row here at home. It's quite a drive, so I was on the fence about it for a long time. I got my college application in on time. That was a big stumbling block.  kimbaquartez dropped out of the sky with a room offer, and I got in touch with some friends in the Ohio river valley who said they'd be happy to have me visit around that time, so it's looking like this trip just fell together almost of its own accord. These are my last months of freedom before I'll be off to college, so I can hardly refuse fate's urging. Therefore, meme thing!

Where are you staying?
The Westin O'Hare

When will you be arriving and leaving?
I'm not even sure what a good time to arrive is, but I plan on being there for all three days. (Nov 22-24)

Who will you be rooming with?
 kimbaquartez and possibly  tsumezyzco

Where will you be most of the time during the day/s?
I'll be doing a lot of panels or wandering about the floor.

Will you be having a room party?
I'm sort of a guest at this room so probably not.

What is your gender?
Dude.
... sweet.

What do you look like?
6'2". I'm a tall, thin, blonde white guy. I know that doesn't really narrow it down but that's what I got.

If I approach you, will you chat with me?
Depends on your approach. If you get your landing gear down and locked, manage your angle of attack and extend your ailerons then you should be clear to land.

How many furry conventions have you attended?
Four, to my own utter disbelief.

Can I hug or snuggle with you?
If you're in a fursuit, absolutely! That's one of my favorite things. If not, well... case-by-case I guess. Ten-second rule if I just met you, K?

How can I find you?
I've learned that wading through I giant sea of people based on a vague physical description is a pretty thankless and self-defeating task, and I wouldn't want to force that one anyone. Noting cell phone numbers back and forth and texting a meeting spot is the only method I've tried with any appreciable success rate, so I usually go with that if I want to meet someone. I will wear my badge though. My badge is this with a white background, laminated with the finest packing tape that your tax dollars can buy. As for where I'll be, well I don't really know myself!

Can I look in your sketchbook?
Yes, but it's imaginary.

Can I draw in your sketchbook?
If you have a good imagination.

Can I take your picture?
Okay. Just bear in mind that I have no "good side" and my hair is always doing something weird.

Do you do do free art, trades, commissions, badges?
Sure! I'm not an artist though, so "free" is about what my art would be worth...

Can I talk to you?
Do you speak English?

Can I buy you drinks?
Yes! I'm usually not much for alcohol, but 'free' is by far my favorite flavor. If you buy something for me, I would certainly be obliged to drink it.

Can I give you stuff?
See above. Note that I may eat what you give me whether that is its purpose or not.

Can I buy you gifts?
What is with these questions? Do people not like getting free stuff or something? Weirdos.

Are you nice?
That seems like a loaded question. I'm pretty personable though, especially in a setting like this. I'm here to meet people and have fun. Being a dick would really not be in my best interests. I tend to get pretty sociable when I'm at a con. I really do like to meet and interact with new people at conventions, so I'll put on my best friendly face while I'm there.

If I see you, how should I get your attention?
Likely your attempts to struggle through my username would get me to look in your direction. I go by 'Beau' among friends. (Pronounced "Bo".) Or you could just get within my peripheral vision and wave feverishly. I'll probably look to see what all the commotion is about. If we're in a crowded room, try yelling "FIRE!" (Seriously though, don't do that.)

Can I come with you for food/fun/etc?
Totally! This is the one time of year where I break my normal conventions and go hang out with tons of people I've never seen before. Take advantage of this limited-time offer while you can!

What's your goal(s) for the con this year?
Meet people, have fun, buy cool swag, enslave mankind, see some cool shows and stuff, get tips on writing and just generally dive in and enjoy everything that the furry world has to offer.

Are you Taken?
No. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that can make me a nightmare for people like you.

What suits will you have?
Just the human one. It's not very creative, but it's got very good visibility and ventilation. Plus it's hard to argue with the price.

Can I touch you?
Stop! Hammertime. I mean... yeah, sure I guess.

Are you cliquey?
I'm a lot more comfortable around people I know, but I only know like four people, so I just kind of hang out with whoever most of the time. Some of my favorite moments at cons have been with people I only just met that day.

Anything I should know before I try to talk to you?
Don't be offended if I have trouble learning your name, I do that to everyone. Plus a given con leaves me with like 9000 Brazillion names to learn, so it may take me a little bit.

Do you have an artist table?
No, my table prefers musical theater.

Do you like parties?
Sure, I'll stop by. But I realize these days that I have never in my life found myself saying "Oh, man! I'm so glad I went to that room party!" I think there are many much more fun things to do at a con, so I may likely find other things to do.
