Well, "fortunate and unheard of" in my case anyway.

But alas, 'tis true. Hard to believe that Furnal Equinox 2018 was just a couple weeks ago. But damn it all if I didn't have fun this year, just like every year.

And it was an especially fun year for me since I got to parade around in my very own fursuit! Fully completed as of last October by my awesome friend, Kiyani (a.k.a. ), my fursona was in fursuit form for a change, running around and hanging out and being all-around random! I'd talk all day about what I think of the incredible fursuit of mine, but I'd rather save that for a separate journal or discussion. But in a nutshell, though my form-fitting bodysuit is incredibly tight and hard to move in - for scenarios like getting back up (from lying down) and sitting down and holding a karate kick for more than a second - the problems were overshadowed by my active and outgoing behaviour, exaggerating my movements and running about with my amazing friends! Of course, one other hitch with my suit is it takes a while to put on; about 10-15 minutes, but that's only 'cause I always second-guess how to put on certain things in whatever order, not to mention trying to carefully put on the wardrobe on top of the bodysuit! Speaking of which, I got the muscle shirt and pants from Wal-Mart but painted on the designs myself! Also after 20 minutes into wearing the fursuit head, my own head starts sweating buckets! lmao But hey, I like the suit, and it feels very fulfilling giving fursuit hugs for a change (all of which were very fluffy and cuddly)!

"But Leo, you never posted photos of yet nor made any big debuts on FA with it? WTF?" Yeah... Life sucks, and things up here at Grandma's house take precedence. Still, I apologise for being totally lame. I'll try to make it up somehow and do a fairly decent "debut" on FA soon.

What really got me smiling and laughing were both compliments with how well I looked in it and shocking reactions when they found out who that ninja lion was!

That said, you never know if I'll look into getting a "Leo 2.0" someday (and why not? Just about every fursuiter has a "Version 2.0" of sorts! lmao).

But I'm rambling (which I will do a lot here, lol), so let's move on.

With the theme being "Livin' Large," I was once again at a loss for ideas. Just like last year's theme, this theme-guy felt rather limited in ideas. After all, neither my fursona nor myself are rich (as much as we want to be), and just about everyone would've gone with the whole "make it rain" idea, so I kinda gave this year's theme a shrug. More importantly, I kinda read between the lines a little bit, seeing a subtle financial status/class difference more prominent among others. It's like this con was indirectly labeling Attendees as poor, Sponsors as... well, you get the idea. Like I know it wasn't their intention by a long-shot, but people can get the wrong idea that way. lol

Might wanna get a snack or two before carrying on with this journal 'cause I'm gonna write a lot. lmao But if you're ready, here we go!

PRE-CON MOVE-IN

I checked into my fancier corner king room this year - Room 2639 - and holy shit, was it a fantastic view! You could see all of the pier and the lake! And when the sun glistened on it each day throughout the con, forget about it! It's like I was living in a postcard!

I made it to the Pre-Reg line roughly a half-hour before 6:00pm where I'd eventually get my sweet Supersponsor package. This time, it was around the downstairs escalators of the convention area (near the room where the Dead Dog Party was last year) which was very misleading. As expected, there was a fairly long line-up that would take its sweet time, but the wait wasn't too bad time-wise; just a shame that we had to be held up for ten extra minutes or so due to equipment setup. But incredibly, I happened to be behind two talented artistic figures in the fandom: and ! I just did some fun small talk with them - especially noticing that they were doing a livestream on their phone - and complimented how awesome their work is (especially with their latest project "Cuckshack" in the works), adding that I wished I could buy something from them someday, but I don't have PayPal due to concerns and security and such (that and I do in-person payments because of that). Now normally, artists I'd share that with would just leave it at that. But long story short, Kabier gave me some pretty useful, outstanding, and simple-as-fuck tips that can help with me setting up a PayPal account of my own. She even wrote down the instructions for me which I gotta give props to her for, being all super special awesome to do that for me. So who knows? When I get time to look into it, I may be able to pay for commissions sometime soon! Won't just jump into things yet though; life and stuff. lol But if you're reading this, Kabier, you're friggin' amazing to go out of your way to offer some guidance for me! Thank you very much!

I headed for the pool at 8:30pm after dinner. Now last year, the place was swamped with kids. This time? Not a soul! None! Like it was dead silent inside! Even the locker rooms looked clean and tidy! You'd think that the area would be jumpin' with kids or other FE guests by then! But hey, I wasn't complaining! lol I was pretty much all to myself swimmin' around and havin' a good time! I mean about ten minutes later, a couple of random girls came in, but they pretty much spent a majority of time in the hot tub anyway, so I wasn't bothered!

And naturally, after being in the pool, I went around with my SLR camera (which is sadly on its last legs since the date always keeps resetting to 1980 for some reason) and got some early shots before the actual con would start. But after a few minutes of doing that, I thought, "screw it, I'm breaking in my fursuit." I gave it an early test run going around and having a fun time getting photos with me in fursuit! It was a lot of fun! Granted, it gets pretty damn annoying to pull out my iPhone every single time I wanted someone to take a photo with it - especially when I have to take off my hand-paw first to get it out of the damn pocket - but throughout the con, I got used to it. Also that night, a lot of patrons from the bar were having a field day with us; lots of guys in business clothing and such were hanging around us and getting photos. I regret not using my iPhone to get this one photo of a guy making a group of us look like we were praising him - which was friggin' hilarious - but we all had a good laugh the very same. I even talked with a patron or two what the whole con was about, sharing how fun it is, and it really brought smiles to their faces!

DAY 1

DEALER'S DEN EARLY ACCESS

Once again, it's very misleading of FE to tease con-goers with the promise of "early Dealer's Den access" without adding a footnote that the early access would commence a long while after the Opening Ceremonies. I mean we had to wait about 20 minutes before the doors opened. And by the time it'd be 12:30pm, the Supersponsors only got 10 minutes to themselves before the whole Den got swamped. That said, the wait was worth it as always to get a commission from many talented artists I knew and love, including whom I was totally looking forward to a lot this year knowing her work! She even knew who I was having commented with hype on her journals and was happy to draw a commission for me at last (and in good time, too)! Also this year in the Den throughout the whole weekend, a first happened: I've commissioned an artist twice in the same con! That honor this year went to whom I knew would do my G-Shep femboy character Sebby a lot of justice with her quality! And she did! But one of the shocking things I learned this year as far as the Den... there was not one sign of anywhere! I was hoping to do a final chapter between Leo and Vivienne with her work, but she wasn't there!

Hmm... Maybe I should make something then...

After that, I went back into my room and suited up, walking around and getting photos with friends old and new! And again, it was so much fun! I was getting used to hastily taking off my hand-paw to reach in my pocket for my iPhone and get photos. lol Man, it was fun interacting with my friends and seeing their reactions when they knew who I was!

At one point, I went over to the YouTube Panel doors while it was part-way through, hoping that I'd find a certain fursonality there. Unfortunately not. Buuuut I'll get to that later. While hanging around, I met some familiar faces and got photos with them, including who was nice enough to not only take some photos with me but also spontaneously do an action GIF where I kick him into a pile of boxes! lmao I believe it was either his idea or his friend's idea, I'm not sure; but there happened to be a bunch of boxes that'd help make for one cool cinematic (y'know how in movies where guys get kicked into fake blocks or something? lol). Plus the infamous Kiyani was there, too, and after hugging her, she slipped something in my back pocket! It was a special invitation to her annual FE Sausage Party in her room for Day 2! So that was pretty cool! In addition, I met this adorably sweet new suiter by the name of Kaluha (a.k.a. ) who was a very nice and kind Pomchi (Pomeranian Chihuahua) girl. She and I not only did some photos with each other, but we had some fun chats together at the time for a while. I wish I could remember what we both shared off the top of my head, but so much happened at the con that I can't remember shit! lmao Needless to say, however, she seemed very sweet and funny and kind. Had a lot of fun hanging out with her along with the other few suiters outside those panel doors. Nearing the end of the panel, I figured that I'd never get to see the guy I was looking for in question, so I just went elsewhere for more fursuit photo ops.

FURRY IMPROV

For this year's session of insanity improv, I decided to give it a shot in fursuit! Incredibly, I lost for the first time ever in "Zip-Zap-Zoop" - a quick-fire intro game - thanks to a mental lapse in judgment somehow (and I'm not gonna explain it as it'd be too complicated). lmao That said, however, the next game right after was the classic Whose Line is it Anyway? game of "Questions Only." I fucking dominated that game, taking out eight opponents in a row (which I got a lot of commendation for afterward from the audience)! After that game, I took off my head and went to the side to get a drink from a water cooler. As I walked over, I passed a table where a sweet lioness I befriended earlier in the day - Lyra Lionheart (not on FA) - was sitting along with a blonde-haired girl that somehow made me think that she looked a little familiar. Turns out when I got my water and went to turn back that she went up behind me, and I was all "Wait... HOLY FUCK!" It was a friend of mine since grade school! Small flippin' world! Turns out that friend of mine was Lyra Lionheart's cousin and stayed with her at the con! Unbelievable! We were so happy to see each other again, and we all got photos together! So not only have I made a new friend, but I reconnected with an old one I haven't seen in God-knows-how-long! Welcome to Furnal Equinox, where anything is possible! lmao

DAY 2

FURSUIT GAMES

First time I practically had the damn suit on the whole day. But it was essentially worth it. I mean I started wearing it around 11:30pm, roughly when the Fursuit Games would start. Thing is I wanted to be part of the Games but didn't know if I had to sign up for them officially or just show up. Fortunately the night before, as I made my way to the elevators to get to my room, I came across Strypes (a.k.a. ) who's the referee for the Fursuit Games, and I asked him what the deal about it was. He explained to me - while saying not to quote him on anything, which I understand, lol - that they're kinda done during the con albeit earlier and to ask Gauge (a.k.a. ), the leader of the Fursuit Games, about sign-ups. So when Day 2 came, I found Gauge while in fursuit at 11:45am and inquired, to which he said that they were done in the Headless Lounge, but the sheet was already closed. However he did tell me to wait around in the lounge anyway for five minutes before the games started, and if certain furs on the list didn't show up in time, I'd get a slot. Sure enough, some didn't end up making it, and I was a last-minute addition! Talk about lucky! lol Of the three teams of suiters, I was placed on Team Orange... Which ended up being Team Green due to a naming error on Gauge's part. lmao But yeah, the Games were a lot of fun! We won the first event involving getting a hoop through all of us joining hand-paws, and then we almost won the ball-toss event. The last event was an obstacle course that ended with modelling clothing down a runway... or, rather, paper images of name-brand and no-name-brand clothing/items down a walkway. lol I had perfect concentration with balancing the ball for the obstacle course, and I flaunted perfectly with my swaggerin' walk down the walkway, swiftly turning my back to the audience for added effect and finished off with shakin' mah tail at 'em! We all had a lot of fun with that event. In the end, the team that got first place... was Team Orange. We got second place, and Blue Team - who literally scored nothing, lmao - got third place. Shame I didn't get gold for my first-ever Fursuit Games, but I don't care. I still had fun anyway! And got a sweet Silver tag out of it! Plus to be fair, we were accidentally called Team Orange originally... So if we wanted be anal about it, then technically, we won first place, too.

FURSUIT FIESTA

Interestingly enough, the new event - that replaced the Fursuit Parade - was organised so that it wouldn't be like popufurs only and such as I originally suspected. There was a schedule of what groups of fursuiters to showcase and get photos of in three separate areas in the large room. There were groups like black-and-white suiters, canines, felines (wild/domestic), etc. But the very first one was all suiters at the con! The big group photo! And I feel I got a very sweet spot in the center area close to the front (and I remember was in front of me [thanks for the group selfie btw])! The con has yet to post that photo, but we'll see how that turns out! Also in hindsight... I'm not sure if I should've given a non-suiter my phone as well when it came time for the feline photo-shoot, 'cause sadly - with exception to posting a photo of it - there's literally no high-quality photos of the feline photo-shoot. I'm so distraught and disappointed. Does nobody care about cats anymore?

Some time after the Fiesta ended, though, my buddy not only photo-bombed me in a solo photo but asked me simply, "hey, do you wanna join us for like a small parade around the hotel?" I laughed and explained to him that I had the same idea and even had a poster all made up for the occasion where I planned to walk around on my own as a solo parading fursuiter. I had a yellow bristol board and wrote in permanent black marker the following: #LoneliestFursuitParade. When I got the poster from my room and came back, he had a good laugh. We got in a small line - there were five or six of us - and we just started walking around the hotel and having a good time getting attention. Maybe not everyone's attention, but it didn't matter. We still made a few people and fursuiters laugh along the way and even got our photos taken. Reeeeally kicking myself, though, for not thinking of, like, briefly stopping the parade to get someone to take a photo of us with the sign (that way, I could've trended it on my furry Twitter). Alas, I didn't think of it. I know, I'm an idiot. But if you happened to see that same small parade of fursuiters with that yellow sign and got a photo of us, please send it to me! I beg of you! I will be so fucking happy; you will have made my day!

Shortly after our little episode of malarkey, I began my search once again for the fursuiter I was hoping to run into the day before. Let me explain. The guy in question was none other than himself, the loveable Australian dingo well-known for his gentle nature and overall positive attitude, sending positive vibes in tweets and random vids! Now, being on Twitter, I happened to notice a couple of days before the con that he made a certain tweet talking about how "fine" is translated when responding to the question of "how are you?" Intrigued, I replied asking if I could share my two cents about that, to which he didn't mind me sending him a Direct Message. I basically shared with him nutshells of what was going on at my end as far as family, but I made sure to put a positive spin on everything; after all, no matter how dark things get, I gotta press forward, right? lol The day I left for the hotel, he replied to my DM, thanking me for sharing what's up with me, offering some very refreshing and kind words of encouragement from him. This dude's just absolutely wonderful! I cannot stress enough how cool Sunny Dingo is. I also found out that he was boarding a plane for Toronto for FE! I friggin' lost my shit when I read that! I had no idea in the first place he'd be coming! And when I learned that he'd be at the YouTube Panel on Day 1, that's where I'd go. But I couldn't find him anywhere that day. Turns out that he was delayed and would be there by Day 2.

Long story short, after a long period of phone-tag/Twitter-tag between him and I, my eyes widened to the sight of Sunny Dingo! I called his name and ran up to him, giving him a big hug, and he was happy to see me at last! lmao I personally thanked him for reading my message and being very empathetic. He was very understanding, essentially telling me that we all have our own battles and just need someone to lean on and talk to. He was happy to help being a good listener. How awesome is he, eh? After we gave each other some big hugs, we got a photo together in fursuit, and my mission was accomplished!

HOJOZILLA'S SAUSAGE PARTY

Once again, no, it wasn't that kind of a Sausage Party. No, it was another evening of Kiyani - whom I have an absolute fursuit-crush for even still - serving any and all invited party-goers actual hot dogs and breakfast sausages. I already had dinner beforepaw, so I didn't have much there except for some "punch." We had a fun few hours there overall! Good music and good friends, and I got to hang with other cool peeps there, including and !

IF I FITS, I SITS - CRITTERS IN BOXES

When I first read that such a panel would be at the con, I had my doubts about how many would actually show up and whether it'd be fun. But oh, boy, was it ever silly. A few fursuiters and loads of boxes made for all sorts of random shit to happen, from box forts to box hats to even box robots, us fursuiters had all kinds of funny ideas! And lots of photo opportunities were had, too!

FURSUIT DANCE

After the craziness of that party, I went down to the Dance Party in the main convention area. I actually went mainly at the inquiry of the one new friend I made, Kaluha, who'd ask me if I'd be able to go to both on Day 1 and Day 2. I'd reply each time with "I hope I can, but we'll see!" But I ended up making it after all! Even if it wasn't for the whole evening, now I can say I was a part of it! And I gotta say that it was actually pretty fun; when I'm in fursuit and in a dark room, I get to lose myself to the music and move my arms around without any fear of looking stupid; I just danced however I liked to the music, and it felt invigorating! And after dancing to myself a bit, I met up with Kaluha and surprised her, saying "see? Told ya I'd show up!" She was very happy to see me again, and we danced together! It was a lot of fun! I totally wanna do more fursuit dancing again next year! Especially longer than this year if I can! lol And I don't know who would've been DJ-ing at the time after midnight, but whoever was there, great job!

DAY 3

For a majority of the day, I got to run around in fursuit some more as well as keep some stuff in my room for and her friends till Closing Ceremonies (I had a big room, so it was more than okay! lol). I got some more fursuit hugs and photo-ops, including some at the Fursuit Photo Booth at long last which was nice! Speaking of which, , I'm so sorry that we didn't get any fursuit photos together at all this year like we had hoped. We had bad timing! lmao Hopefully we'll be able to secure some photos together - especially at the Fursuit Photo Booth - next year!

And at one point early afternoon, I crossed paths with Sunny Dingo again, and I thanked him once again for being so awesome and complimenting him on how big an impact he's made in the furry fandom! That's when he surprised me with a very sweet gift: a small red pack of his own personal trading cards! I never knew he had something like that, and I guess they were limited, so that was such a huge honor to get that from him! The pack contains five cards showcasing notable fursuiters - including him of course, lol - and facts about them. Wicked! This is like the equivalent of being surprised with a personalised energy drink from Flux (a.k.a. )! lol Still, I really hope Sunny Dingo enjoyed himself at the con and that he'll come back next year; would love to have more photo-ops with him!

DEAD DOG DANCE

Okay, again, where the fuck did the term "dead dog" come from? Like was this sort of after-con event based on someone's dog dying long ago? Not even WikiFur knows the origin of such a term. Please help me understand this.

That being said... I was about an hour late 'cause I needed to eat dinner. In hindsight, I could've put it off till after it'd end at 10:00pm, but I'll do that next year. lol I ended up bringing down some candy and and cookies for anyone that wanted to eat 'em. I also brought down my fursuit sandals in the hopes that I'd show Kiyani - when she'd show up - what the damage was and if it could be fixed. See, the right sandal got broken off a bit around the strap area; don't know how it happened, but it happened for sure on the same day.

When she did arrive, I showed her the sandals, and she was sad to see the condition the one sandal was in, but she was more than happy to fix it. So she told me to leave them with her and have them fixed for me later on. But before we did that, we decided then and there to take care of some photo-ops and video-making, so I temporarily put my sandals on a table in the Dead Dog Dance/Party. Plus I gotta say it felt weird but fun walking around in bare feet-paws.

After I quickly put the sandals on the table with the candy and cookies, we took care of some photo-shoots together as well as two short videos that'd end up being GIFs. Then we spontaneously decided to quickly go up to her room where she'd show me how to make GIFs. Went up to her room and watched as the vids were clipped to shorter times and converted to GIFs - the process was fairly interesting - and she was able to send them to me via Telegram GIFs for me to post! Yay~!

Then I casually checked my phone, and I guess we had more fun with the GIF-making than I thought 'cause I lost track of time; it was almost a half-hour after the party had ended at 10:00pm. And I laughed realising that I had to get my sandals. lol So I went down to the convention floor. But halfway there, somebody saw me running and went, "did you leave your shoes or something down there on a table?" I paused for a second before I realised what he meant and said "yes." He then told me that Kaldar (a.k.a. ) "ended up taking it to Lost and Found." I was all "what?" And then I was all double-time to the room where FE staff was packing up the tables. They told me to look to the Front Desk for help. So I did. Also yes, I'm aware I'm an idiot for making such a mistake with the sandals. lol Anyway, I was at the Front Desk for a good 10 minutes, and they couldn't find nor do anything about it except to place a little order to look for any missing foam costume slippers. By this point, I was silently panicking and stressing out. I was even Telegramming Kiyani about it as I made my way back to the party room to check again to be sure, and she felt bad. Incredibly, however, when I asked if any FE staff member there saw such fursuit footwear - I even described it to them - one guy (I can't friggin' remember his name now, but I appreciate him so much) told me that they had wrapped up their gear onto a truck in the storage area! A friggin' truck!? No matter. I walked out into the cold garage area with him, and sure enough, wrapped in plastic wrapping on a cart were my sandals! HOORAY! I thanked the staff member - and the rest of the con staff there - profusely for helping me out! Granted, it would've been better if I were also able to have recovered the candy and cookies I brought down to the party as well, but to be fair, I planned to bring them down there for the party anyway, so fuck it. Whoever took 'em, more power to 'em. The sandals were more important. lmao

And I'm glad I got those sandals back 'cause Kiyani was able to patch them up for me the very next day! Turns out she forgot that she brought the hot glue gun with her to the con! Pretty convenient though!

OTHER HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS AND FINAL THOUGHTS

MONEY SPENT: $555
MONEY LEFT: $100

Not surprising that I've shelled out a crap-ton of money again this year. Plus some of the artists' prices have gone up a lot! But knowing their quality, I felt that everything was well worth the purchases! Plus it's kinda apropos given the theme. lol

- One other lowlight involved something not during the con but after it... Long story short, a creep I know from college goes to the con, and they kept asking why I had blocked them and was avoiding them. I tried to give a simple pleasant answer to start, but when they kept pressing, I was blatantly honest. Their reply? They call me a liar and tell me that they have a "based memory," adding that they don't like liars. If I wasn't so bloody exhausted from the con or was in a rush with everything else (while waiting for my bro to bring the car to the lobby doors at the time) - or was surrounded by con-goers/friends I know of - I would've had more than half a mind to drop-kick their ass. :angry: This was a person that never respected my privacy even when I told them straight-up that I was busy and to leave me alone. That person wouldn't know respect if it bit them in the ass. If they did, they'd already un-watch me from FA and every fucking account they have me on. Of course, that's just for that one blocked user. I haven't blocked you, though, so don't worry. You're okay.

- I ended up encountering the infamous herself! Like holy shit! That was a totally epic surprise! Her and , too! I just feel ashamed that the pictures didn't turn out as smooth/clear as I had hoped (whoever I had hold onto my iPhone camera doesn't know how to stay still for shit). Still, I hope those two had a spectacular time at the con, and I hope to see them again next year! And if that wasn't epic enough, I found out via Twitter some time after the con that SpazzFox actually fucking proposed to Syber at the con! And she said "yes!" OMG! AND I MISSED THAT, TOO! I always miss all the big moments like that! Still, mega-congrats to the both of you if you're reading this! May you two have a spectacular and life-long relationship together!

- And as long as we're discussing matters of love, I got the privelege of meeting 's new mate, ! That's right! Some time before FE2018, I found out via Twitter that one of my best (and first) friends from the con felt a deep connection with the genderfluid fur, and they've never been happier! All the best to ya both!

- Also a rather interesting thing I learned at the con: 's child TinyTribble recently came out as transgender! Never saw that coming at all to be honest! So now the daughter has become a son! At the same time, though, I'm very proud of TinyTribble for being true to himself and respect his choices. Like I said to him, "no matter what gender you are, you stay true to you. And you're always an awesome Tribble to me no matter what."

In conclusion, the con was a smash hit as always in terms of getting to be a fursuiter for a change as well as hanging out with old and new friends I've met! Even now as I write this, I hurt so much missing them as they're far away, and I'm in the middle of nowhere with no social pipeline save for Telegram, Skype, FA, and Twitter (though the latter I'm still trying to get used to). Plus as tight as my form-fitting fursuit is and how difficult it is to move in, I'm happy with the adventures I have had with it and look forward to more fun with it next year! Also the Supersponsor goodies, perks, and surprises were pretty fancy~!

Extra special thanks to all my incredibly amazing friends I hung out with one way or another at the con, both old and new (and in no particular order): kalamari, hojozilla, novasuga, omet.chimrand, ~angelicwolf~, sinistervibe, dojodingo, ellie-fennec, calciferthefruitbat, lusela, felixthefox, sleepyroo, flowkitty, shujintribble (and his son, TinyTribble), panzier, menei, buzzybeak, oliver-cross, and many, many, many more that I can't even think of off the top of my head! lmao But you are awesome all the same and should always feel awesome! Thanks for wanting to either get some photo-ops with me, hanging out with me, hugging me, dancing with me, or whatever else with me!

Oh, yeah... And a good time was had by all (as Shujin always says, lol)!

If you managed to make it this far without passing out or going way in the head with reading everything in this journal, you're friggin' amazing.

So... Thank you very much for taking the time to read my exceptionally-long and informal-yet-formal "con report." Be on the lookout for my slew of con photos coming in the super-near future on my photo account: !

Here's to a safe and successful FE2019! Whatever you've majored in within the furry fandom, this is your chance to be recognised for it and get the sheepskins you deserve! Even if you're a sheep already, you should get one, too! Heck, it's like you're a walking diploma already!

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to brush up on my history lessons.
