and this is why we cosplay

Yes yes yes so much yes!  

Story time!

I was at ACEN this last year walking over to where the Kalafina concert was going to be.  I was in my Princess Tiana cosplay.  I had just crossed the street and was heading to the building when I heard a woman from her car going, “Hey!  Are you Tiana?!”  

I was kinda surprised because I was outside and not at the con, and it was this woman in her car waiting for the light to turn green.  So I was like, “Y-yeah…”

She got the biggest smile on her face and pulled out her phone and said, “Can I get your picture?!”  And she snapped a picture just as the light was turning green, said a quick thank you, and drove off.  

It’s really great to cosplay and give people outside of cosplay that kind of moment  :)
