Confuzzled + Ári
14 years ago
Alrighty, had some ideas for what to write about in here, though I'll not write about them all in one go or the wall o' text may be too daunting ^^;;
I'll start off by writing a little about Confuzzled ^_^
Confuzzled was my... Erm.. *Counts* 7th convention now I believe o.o (Gosh I do get around ^^;;) but it was however Ári's first convention. So other than the meets, any one who saw him there, congrats you were there for his debut con and you win uh... >.> Free hugs next time you see him? =D
It was a very enjoyable con for sure though ^_^ I must say that I wasn't entirely sure how much I would enjoy it but I was pleasantly surprised. Every one there was so nice too, so thanks to all you guys as well for making it an amazing con ^_^
Ok, erm, so Ári. A quick thing about how I got him. It's a really simple story, but I shall tell it, just so you know ^_^ If you're interested that is <_< I mean if you're not interested then you may go help yourself to the cookies on the side over there whilst I tell this part <_< I shan't be offended ^_^ I do ramble some times ^^;
Basically (I'll try and keep this basic because otherwise it could turn into some horribly long text that I'm sure no one would want to read ^^;; ) after having fallen in love with fursuiting whilst running around in my previous suit (Art), I decided that I wanted to go for one of the best fursuit builders I know of. Now yes there are a lot of good fursuit builders out there, but at that very moment in time, Mixed Candy was open for commissions and I adore her wolves ^^;; Unfortunately, I'm absolutely terrible at designing characters, so I sent her a request to design me a cute blue wolf. After a what felt like a million years @_@ (But was actually only one <_< ) I finally got my hands on the new suit =D It was like a million Christmas' rolled into one ^______^ Next though came the looooooong process of 'What on earth do I call him o.o'. At first I wanted to give him a name that meant something and also sounded cool. That turned out to be a very hard thing to do so I gave up on that ^^;; Man... I tried so many different languages it was insane o.o;; So yea, after giving up on that idea, I turned to names that just sounded good instead. I eventually settled on the name Ari, though I did want it to be semi unique and having done a search for the name Ari, quite a number of people had already taken that name... And people kept calling him 'arry which didn't sound too nice to me <_< Kinda like Harry, with the H dropped... x.x;; Yea... So to make the name more unique and different from every one else who had called themselves/their fursona Ari, I added an accent to the A to make it Ári so that it's pronouced 'Arr-ee' which is how I wanted it to be pronounced. Only problem is that most people either don't notice the accent or don't know how to add it so he ends up getting called Ari anyways ^^;; 's ok though, I can say my name in suit so people know how to say it at least =D
As for the character and how I play him... I guess I just go with how I feel taken by it o.o It's hard to explain really ^^;; I struggle thinking of how to put across acting in suit x.x
*Looks over the post* Oh gosh, I have rambled a bit haven't I <_<;; Well um.. It's some erm... Bed time reading right? ^^;;
I do have some other things that I can write about, but I'll leave them for another time I think because there's enough to deal with here for now as is >.> In the mean time, I'm going to be hopefully looking to get some cute pictures of Ári drawn so hopefully, when I can find some one to commission I'll be able to post a picture up in my gallery for every one to see and hopefully squee at ^^;;
Now... What happened to the cookies I left on the side? o.o;;

FA+

I will be one of the first to make you gift art. ^^
I would want a mixed candy, but waaay to expensive for me.
It's no surprise that I love Ari so much and am so glad that I was one of those people to witness Ari's debut that con.
A shame I will have to miss him at EF... ;.;
And don't worry! I write long descriptions/journals/replies too ^^;;; Altho never know if people do read them... :( In fact look at this reply... ^^;
Yeah! I wanna see moar photos/pictures from Ári! *takes your tail and bounces around* And... *looks at the empty plate* I wasn't! I was reading you, I promise u_u *takes one cookie and stores in his pocket* Yeah, we animals do have pockets on our fur, haven't you ever seen cartoons? xP
