Why? Because I feel the need.
Plu I'm still working diaolgue in my head. Ban and Alucard yelling at each other. Great fun.
Anyhew.
Work search not going well. Have had two phone calls asking to submit resumes and one just 20 minutes ago asking if I could work tonight. Hah! I TOLD you people I need 24 hours notice. Oh, how quickly these mortals forget their history. Tsk tsk.
*blinks, rubs eyes*
They're stripping and striping the parking lots this week. I think the dust and such is coming in through the A/C, my eyes are killing me. Or maybe it's too long on the comp reading Hellsing fanfiction and getting lots of naughty ideas.
"No! Bad Song! No adult Hellsing fic!"
"Who's the master here?"
*grumble*
Heeeheeehee! I love Sildar. We'll make a great Integral/Alucard team. Speaking of, I got a few prices on what I'll need for my Integral costume.
Suit: ~$50. I did find olive green that fit me, in the boy's section of Burlington Coat Factory. 16 regular, can you imagine! 18 was a bit too big. Sadly, they didn't have the suit in the right size, just the right style and color. *sigh* I'll be hunting around Men's Warehouse next. It's not like we have the money now, but I do intend to wear the suit to work if I end up with a dress code. There's so many nice suits in boys. Not like in women's, where half the styles insist on skirts. I hate skirts. Unless they're ankle length and broomstick style. (Side note, going to Ren Faire this weekend. Find out if you can borrow a dress from Goldie Friday so you can hem the bloody thing.)
Wig: ~$45. Thanks to Kandybar for giving me the weblink. I found one that looks pretty close and available in the right color. Since all wig sales are final on that site, I intend to do some hands-on shopping, find out appropriate size and such.
Gun: ~$25. Took me entirely too long to find the bloody thing, but there is one available in airsoft format and with the requiste orange muzzle to protect me from the Con staff. *grin* I'd prefer a real one, but that would cost more then everything else put together, I'm sure. PPKs are small!
Shirt, gloves, shoes and shoulder harness will take some doing. Well, not so much. Shirt, shoes and tie could probably be purchased with the suit for fairly cheap. Under $100, I hope. Gloves will be obtained at the Surplus store and the shoulder harness, hmmm. Not sure where to go with that. Have to ask Wolf. I'll also need cigars, and since I can't afford Holland imports, I'll settle for Acids. The ones in the black tin that taste like dark chocolate. Mmm.
Am I forgetting anything? *ponders* My glasses will have to do. They're not oversized or silver, but they are round enough. I could paint them silver, I suppose. Sildar didn't go for the fangirl idea, except to pose in pictures with real ones. I'll have to remember that. *eville grin*
Well, I have a year for this. At least. I'll buy pieces as I can and stash them away. Then, when it's complete, I'll put it all together and pose for pictures to wow my friends with. Yeah.
