Bella and I WERE going to go to the con as Jessie and James, but a regressive episode a couple days before the event almost put a kibosh on our plans. And then we saw a Meowth sleeper type thing at the store.
"Think this will work, chére? I know you don't like pants or onesies."
"Bell, if you can put up with sleeves for a few hours, I can put up with this for a bit. Besides, I really wanted to go to this con and we've already got tickets and everything."

"What con?" A voice behind us made me spin around in surprise. "Oh, Hi Chuziku." It was a silver fox, a friend of mine from work. "You've met Bella before, right?" He nodded. "Yep. You were both at the office party last year and we met then." "That's right. Good to see you again." Bella answered. "We're going to the comic/anime convention tomorrow. Brock was going as James from Team Rocket, and I was going as Jessie, but..."

Chuziku nodded. He knew about my condition, everybody at work does. "I understand. Team Rocket, eh? Meowth?" "Aye." I held up the sleeper to show him. "It's not ideal, but it'll work." "You know, that's funny. Guess where I'm going tomorrow?" I glanced up at the fox quizzically. "Don't tell me you were planning to go to the convention too?" He nodded with a shy smile. "Yup. And you'll never guess what I was planning to wear."

Bella's jaw dropped. "You don't mean you were..." A glint came into Chuziku's eye as he struck a pose and said "Prepare for trouble." All of us started laughing right there in the store as other customers looked on in annoyance. "Well, that's just perfect then!" Bella said as I nodded beside her. "We'll all go together! The full Team Rocket, taking over the con!"

Best. Convention. Ever.
