AC Meme, Somehow!
12 years ago
Given this is my first and possibly only opportunity to do this, I kinda wanted to do the thing for this. So:
Where are you staying?
- the Westin, I think? The con hotel, or so I hear
What day are you getting there?
-Thursday afternoon/evening
How are you traveling?
- Flying from New York, having flown from considerably further away previously
Who are you rooming with?
- Nope!
Who will you hang out with during the convention?
- Pretty much the TF Crewe, I believe - so
angrboda
therian
blackshirtboy
tharakaos
toberkitty
taki
fuego
How is the best way to find you?
- See me if you can see me, I guess? You could probably tweet me on the tweeters if you particularly want to get a hold of me for some reason
Are there any panels you might be attending?
- I legitimately did not even know this was a thing. Given there's no TF panel at this one, I'm assuming no?
What do you look like?
- Honestly the best description for me is; aside from "white" and "a guy", just about as generic as possible in every other respect
Will you be suiting?
- I genuinely considered wearing my actual business suit at some point (as in, formal, office-type suit, just to be ironic), but given that it's likely to be quite warm I can't imagine that'd be worth it
Do you do free art?
- you would be looking in the wrong place for that, my friend
Do you do trades?
- ditto on the above! All I can provide is like, a hastily-written few sentences along the lines of "and then boners happened hooray"
Do you do badges?
- ditto ditto
Do you do commissions?
- I suppose I could do story commissions, but I'm not looking to offer them - I can't imagine I'd do too well with other people's characters or with stuff I don't especially want to write. Looking into other ways to turn a profit though, so watch this space!
What is your gender?
- Generic guy
How tall are you?
- Average height, even if I can never remember exactly what that is
Can I talk to you?
- Probably? I'll probably be caught off guard if you do so unexpectedly, but that's essentially my default state so whatever
Can I touch you?
- I am probably too British for this. Like, not as in "you can't touch me you unworthy cretin", more as in "ahh ahh what is going on ahh what is this ahhh"
How can I find you?
- I'm going to see if I can find a distinctive hat (like my avatar), but if not I'll try to at least have a badge. But, really, you have better people to find, let's be fair.
Can I visit your room?
- Chances are I will need my room to escape to. This is my very first anything like this, after all.
Can I buy you drinks?
- Likely only if I know you. I can't imagine there'd be too many offers of drinks outside that though? Is that really a thing? People just buying drinks for other people? Oh, right, yeah, that seems completely normal. Well, okay, anyway.
Can I give you stuff?
- Uh? INPUT NOT DEFINED
Are you nice?
- I'm probably pretty polite, if that counts. I'm probably nice? I'll probably be too busy being shocked and awestruck by everything to be notably nice, to be fair
How long are you going?
-Thursday to Monday
Do you have an artist table?
- I do not
Will you be going to parties?
- I honestly don't know!
Will you be performing?
- I cannot imagine there would be an opportunity for me to perform anything at AC
If I see you, how should I get your attention?
- I'll attempt to respond to calls of "Abe". You can tap me on the shoulder if I'm not looking - I'm not phobic of human contact or anything - I just don't want to invite getting tackle-hugged by randoms or anything
Where will you be most of the time during the day/s?
- Chances are I'll be hanging out with some or all of the people I mentioned above at pretty much all times. First con, and all. Stick with the folks you know. So if you find them, you'll probably find me.
What/where will you be eating?
- haha I am leaving this decision up to the folks I'm hanging with, as they have more than the absolutely zero idea I have of what's good in the area.
Can I come with you for food/fun/etc?
- given I'll be in an existing group, chances are if you're a part of that then yes, and if not no - I wouldn't imagine I'd be inviting anyone else along to join a group I'm already an adjunct of.
Can I take your picture?
- probably no, actually. I'm sure it's unlikely to get back to anyone I know, but if it's published online or anything I wouldn't be keen on the risk of someone stumbling across the photo of me looking gormless at AC
What's your goal(s) for the con this year?
- I genuinely have no idea. Meet folks I know but haven't met, I guess?

Btw, for food, I know a great BBQ place that serves every kind of dietary need (even mine) and it's really good. I would love to get everyone together for that.
