Hey so FWA 2024 was pretty cool
a year ago
General
Got back home from it yesterday. It was my first furry convention, and I had a blast! I'm not gonna chronicle absolutely everything I did there, but I will list some highlights:
-Getting a physical print commission at the dealers' den
-Briefly spectating a Beyblade tournament, of all things
-Getting so distracted by some pigeons I saw that I totally missed the chalk art people had drawn until I looked at the photos later
-Playing Rock Band and Taiko no Tatsujin at the arcade
-Going to a bird furry meetup and signing the signs that were brought there
-Watching some of the Smash Bros Ultimate tournament matches
-Trading a fox plush for a bigger stuffed penguin at the trading post
-Watching an impromptu dance circle and hyping people up at the Moonlight Festival (and just generally being there and vibing for like 4 hours)
-Watching the fursuit dance competition
-Getting invited to a chill room party and making some wonderful friends there
I'm so glad I went, and I'm definitely going next year.
Some albums that I listened to on the way to the motel I was staying at, between there and the convention, and while traveling back home:
The Mars Volta - Frances the Mute
UK - Danger Money
Yes - Close to the Edge
Motoi Sakuraba - Gikyokuonsou
Mastodon - Crack the Skye
