1. Hello all, Elena here.

2. General Location: Pierce County, WA

3. Self Summary: Getting the important three out of the way: I'm Female both in sex and gender, 24 years of age, and single. I enjoy reading both books and manga, sewing, cosplay, photography, and consuming sweets (I think I may be addicted). I can come across as harsh at times since I tend to be very straight forward and blunt with most things but if you truly get to know me you'll realize I'm pretty nice and not all that terrible. I've got a bit of a strange sense of humour but from what I can tell that's not an all too uncommon trait in this community. While I am an extrovert I do have my moments when all I want to do is be alone or just quietly sew while hanging out with friends. I consider myself "hetero-flexible" in that I am primarily sexually attracted to men, but I also find myself attracted to persons of the female, genderqueer and trans persuasion.
My preferred age range is: 16-35 for friends. 21-30 for "more than friends"/dating.

4. Likes: Sewing. Cosplay. Generally derping around with friends. Photographing my friends in their cosplays so that they have at least one decent pic of it. Reading: The Long Walk; A Clockwork Orange; A retardedly long list of manga that includes shoujo shounen yaoi and horror. D&D (I've only played 3.5 & 4th, and am currently seeking a new group). Animals (even though I'm ridiculously allergic). Korean food. I like outgoing people who are up for trying something new, aren't afraid to cosplay / dress strangely in public and who I generally get along with. Lemons & lemon flavoured food stuffs. Sour candy. Sweets. Art. Museums.

Dislikes: I dislike my allergies to animals... and the fact that because of my allergy to Salmon I can't go to Sushi restaurants. People who would rather I feed them lies as opposed to being blunt & truthful with them. People who are too caught up in what others think about them & can't make a decision on their own. My lack of a job (though I am on the hunt).

5. What you are looking for:
In friends: Someone who's up for generally derping around town, who's "cool" (for lack of a better term), who's alright with my being a photography-whore, and who is willing to work around the fact that I'm broke when it comes time to hang out.

In a relationship: Someone who's willing to be honest with me from the very start and allow me to do so as well. Who's willing to put up with my sometimes shitty jokes. Who's down for both "mellow cuddle time" and "Let's just wander around town on foot" time. Someone who's not "socially awkward".
[Now for me to be terribly straightforward] And while there are a few exceptions I don't typically find myself physically/sexually attracted to "bigger" people, when by doctoral standards you're considered MorbidlyObese there's little chance of moving out of the "friend zone".

Hi there!! You seem pretty awesome. As well as a lot like me....^_^
Anyway, I'm in King County..So just next door (county wise lol)
My thing is on this thread somewhere..If you want I can link it. But if you'd rather I can PM you..

Welp..Found it so if you wanna take a look here ya go

[Kotarou]

I know this isn't working...but that isn't going to stop me from continuing to try...right?

I already wrote about myself and what I'm looking for on the first page, so let me just add some things:
Who I cosplay: I typically cosplay as Kagamine Len, but I also have a lot of other characters I cosplay, like Ciel, Genis (Tales of Symphonia), Kirito (Sword Art Online), and Shinku (DOG DAYS). You can see who else I cosplay in the link in my signature.

Assuming I'm going to Otakon, I'm also planning to cosplay as Shugo Chara's Ikuto.

My general rule for cosplaying characters is if I like their outfit, I will consider cosplaying them. If a character is not listed, you just need to let me know which character you would want me to do. As long as I like the costume, I'll cosplay the character. The costumes I look for tend to be elegant or youngish.

[ThievingMagpie]

Location: Southern California
Age: 26
Gender: Female
Seeking: Female - I've always dreamed of that lovey-dovey couples' cosplay I see other people doing all the time. Unapologetic slasher preferred, but not completely necessary. I tend to mostly want to cosplay males, and again it's a bonus if my girl does too, but not totally necessary. Would also love the playfulness and imagination to be able to engage in a somewhat-IC relationship, but the mental health to know when we've got to be our true selves. Someone local would be best of course, but I've successfully fostered long-distance relationships and am willing to do so again with liberal use of AIM and Skype~
Interests: Professionally I'm a massage therapist. I'm protective and doting; I love to care for others. I spend most of my free time reading and RPing, and I love to bake. I also love music, classic cars, and am trying really hard to learn how to knit. I've been cosplaying on and off for about ten years, and I'm just now getting back into it after a long absence.

Summary: I'm not sure what I'm supposed to put here. Ehh. I'm about 5'5", blue eyes, mostly glasses but sometimes I can be arsed to wear my contacts. My hair is always changing; I am not shy about cutting or coloring my hair for a cosplay role, as I hate wearing wigs (but will, if I need to). Love animals. I am also a tea fiend, and love all things British. DFTBA.
Anime: It's been a LONG time since I've been into anime, to be honest! Years, probably. I have no idea what the kids are into these days. ;P But the last ones I remember loving are Cowboy Bebop, Gravitation, Excel Saga, FAKE, Weiss Kreuz, Yami no Matsuei, Wolf's Rain, X/Tokyo Babylon, Kara Kano, R.O.D., and... well, lots more! Loved all Studio Ghibli and CLAMP stuff, too.
Books: Good Omens, Howl's Moving Castle, The Fault in Our Stars, The Hunger Games, Harry Potter, Tithe, The Forest of Hands and Teeth, World War Z, The Temeraire Series, The Nightrunner Series, alllll the Sherlock Holmes stories and any/all spinoffs, parodies, stories in that universe (especially The Hound of D'Urbervilles, mmm).
Movies: I dunno, I like super hero movies, horror films, things based on books. Unfortunately I don't get to the movies very often anymore. Nobody to go with, either (hint hint).
TV: Sherlock, Doctor Who, Supernatural, New Girl, Castle, Being Human, White Collar, The Walking Dead, and lots more.

I'm also going to link to my other thread, if that's alright, because it's also what I'm hunting for: Consulting Criminal Seeks Sniper

Anything else, please don't hesitate to send me a PM!

[YoshikoMiwa]

1. Yoshiko ^_^

2. Just outside of Chattanooga, TN...just inside Georgia

3. I'm 20 and am currently a Mathematics major with a focus in education. I am also pansexual (not that I think it matters; however, some people I meet are really against it for some reason so this is me saying it upfront). I enjoy listening and learning about other people's opinions and beliefs. I am usually pretty nice, but I can have my limits. I don't know how to sew but would love to learn eventually! I am new to cosplaying. Upcoming cons will be AWA, Anime Blast Chattanooga, MomoCon, and any others that I can have friends to go with me to! I can be really shy at first but I'm super crazy and loud once you get to know me ^.^

4. I like to just hang out and have fun! It doesn't have to be anything in particular. I just go with the flow. I like just about every genre of music and movies (except horror...that's just too scary lol). I have a few pet peeves but doesn't everyone. I don't really have a long dislike list...other than stupid people (no not people that act stupidly at times and has fun with it. I mean like the ones you talk to and you lose IQ points from...sorry! I can be mean!)

Oh if you have any great manga or anime to suggest, I would love to hear them! Lately I have been really drawn to action/fantasy things, but I am up for anything!

5. I am looking for friends and whatever just happens. I am single but I'm not really actively looking. If I did date someone, it would be someone that I could just have fun being around and love spending time with. I would love to have some more cosplay friends that I could hang out with at cons (: I guess you can pm me for a pic if you want to see how I look ^_^

[SirWonderusMary]

1.Sirwonderousmary, ya want my name? Here- Yaz is a good start.
2.Central Florida area.
3.I am female,18 years old; I've just finished high-school and just getting into the convention scene as me, and my ex plan conventions. We recently broke up, but it hasn't hindered us from hanging out, since I've known here for 6-7 years and dated half. Just realize that if we dated, you'd see her around a lot. We already decided to mutually break up due to being too..."friend-like". My interests are photography, and editing so if you have any photos you could lend me it'd be nice to warp it into something interesting. On a side note, I prefer to cosplay male characters so please don't ramble about how "cute!" i'd be cosplaying so and so "very exposed woman" or "woman with no utter personality developement."
4.Like: Cross-play, Photography, Marvel, certain Shojou manga, reading manga, role-play dislike: Watching anime (like, I can't stand an episode most times, how would I be able to do a marathon of it?), Yuri (I just don't like reading it...and what not), sitting through certain voice actor's panels.
5. I'm not really interested in a long-term relationship atm or much of one right now since it'll probably be weird, but wouldn't mind having a few buddies to chat with, whether it be skype or chat on some network. Just, don't start a conversation with me and give me overly short replies after I've written you possibly a paragraph of my life and you're just. "Cool." or "su frekin amiaing" <-- use a little effort in typing to me, please? ^^U.

You can reach me here, or on Deviantart and if you sound interesting we can exchange facebooks/email accounts.

XD Don't fear, somehow it'll work. Just give it more time, or advertise more? Relationships happen in the most unexpected times anyway and places

To most, Im not exactly 'Girlfriend' material or visually attractive. No one likes the gothic/tomboy type these days, and the guys who live near me only like the girls who have that preppy 'American apparel' or 'ambercrombie' look (meaning they wear shorts that look uncomfortably scrunched up their butts), so I usually don't go looking. But I believe you about it happening unexpectedly C: I just fear rejection.

Aw. Shame they can't see past appearances then to the girl beneath all that, though I always did hear about "beach babes" and what not in Cali. Makes people expect their girlfriend to be that exact description, same goes in Florida but I tell you it's harder with all these older folk moving in. Honestly, I wouldn't care much if you're not a "beach babe" as long as your not just a pretty face (with no personality whatsoever).

Thats exactly what Im saying ;_; Like literally everyone here all dress and act the same. They are all laughing at me because I go to the mall in my neon green jacket, black and red hair and cat ears and Anime shirt, but Im laughing at them because all they are is just one big BLAH. Only caring about the latest rap artist and new phones and prom and junk like that. I look at them with other 'preppy beach babe' guys and I wonder... "Is sex the only thing they have in common?" Thats another thing, guys in CA are only interested in that.

Yeah, Yeah. Definitely sounds like that stereotype I keep getting around of them, but Cali should have a nerd pop somewhere there since it has the biggest conventions. We can maybe hang out if I can manage to get a Comic-con Ticket since I just remembered I might go to Cali for that con. XD. Big "might" since it varies on if me and my friend can buy the ticket/room with that one person who offered before. But, just remember your different than them, and better than their "You, me sex in my hot tub" act they have there.

If there is a nerd pop, then I sure as heck can't find them ;n; Im in the Fullerton part of CA and all of the other anime fans are like in LA or San Diego. In Fullerton, everyone is a snob. I get rude glares and people I don't even know screaming profanities at me from their cars while driving away :/ I hate it here. But the expo's Im going to are Anime LA, AM2, Camikazee Expo, possily Yaoi Con, and Anime Expo. It would be nice to meet another fellow cosplayer. And LOL "Sex in my hot tub" thats a good one XD

If it's as small as you say, then you'll be unlikely to find it sadly. ^^U Though you might wanna start saving money to move to the LA/ SD areas ASAP to get away from all that crap going on in that area and maybe meet said people there. I've also thought of Yaoi-con (friend offered a room for Yaoi-con or CC really XD) but I doubt i'll be able to go if I still had classes during that time. If anything, I suppose we could arrange a meet up somewhere if I went to CC (Again it's maybe XD, but I still hope to go). >.> Thank you, thought it'd fit their "cool", party-animal style with that.
