All of a sudden Her Universe submissions are due in a couple days and I haven’t done mine yet, oops 😂

Going to do it this weekend!

It’s super exciting when the corset you make yourself turns out to be worth it and better than the store bought one!

I love being able to tailor something to be exactly the shape, length, fabric I want!

Rosie is ready for her first con! I’m sure I’ll have adjustments to make after but I’m looking forward to finally taking her out to play!

Last October a friend and I were spit balling creatively and somehow ended up on “What if popular cryptids were in a girl band?”

And we spiraled from there and now we’re cosplaying them in a couple months!

Introducing miss Sassy Q, drummer for the Cryptidz and alien conspiracy enthusiast. She looks way cooler than she actually is 😂

If feels silly all the prep I’m doing “in case” I get in the HUFS because I am 100% not expecting it at all.

But travel prep is one of my favorite things to do and having a timeline ready on the off chance I get in would help immensely if it happened.

But I try to make it VERY clear to the people I talk with that I am not expecting much. I am going to actually put in a full effort application this time but I feel very out of my league with the people that get in 😅

I love their little polycule so much 🥰

BOOP ME YOU COWARDS

Last year I entered the Her Universe Fashion Show but I did not put my best effort forward with my submission because of a potential scheduling conflict and the theme restriction.

This year I’m trying for real with the design I wanted to submit last year.

I’m still not expecting much but am at least going to put more effort into my submission!

Major trigger warning for pet loss and grief.

It’ll be 2 years in April since I had to say goodbye to my soul dog. He lived a long and happy life and was the absolute sweetest boy.

The day it was time to compassionately end his suffering was the literal worst day of my life. I have not even been able to talk about it because any thought of that day brings me right back there and I just cannot do it.

ButI think I’ve got talk about it a bit, even if it’s on tumblr where I don’t have many people hanging around.

.

I prepared myself for when it would be time to say goodbye.

Prepared myself to be there with him at the end because it’s what he deserved.

I gently reminded my parents that we were making the right choice so he wouldn’t be in pain which killed a piece of me because it felt like I was pushing for his death.

I said I would hold him while it happened instead of keeping him on the cold veg table. He wasn’t going to be cold in his final moments.

My mom held my arm while I stroked him on my lap as the vet explained very briefly what she was going to do and what to expect.

I thought I had prepared myself for everything but I wasn’t prepared to suddenly feel the lack of his heart beating against my leg.

I don’t remember much after that because I set him down on the vet table and just had to leave because I didn’t want that to be the way I remembered him.

Saying goodbye to him was so soul crushing that I don’t know that I ever want to get another dog and I’m honestly okay with that.

Here’s to my boy ❤️

Alright, I’m gonna try and stop spamming all my socials with Rosie content for now 😅

I’ve almost completely finished Rosie from Hazbin Hotel!

This is gonna be a tumblr exclusive preview for now

But I got these pants today and my Cryptid cosplay finally has a solid look.

I’m representing Bigfoot in my little group and can’t wait until the 3 of us pull our outfits together and reveal our shenanigans 😂

Xena is up next!

This is the big one! She was my first ever cosplay and I’m finally remaking her 10 years later

I absolutely love this cosplay but am having a hard time telling myself I don’t need to make the hat brim wider 😅

When it was on just my head it looked nice and oversized but now with the wig and puffy sleeves it’s not as dramatic as I hoped 😭

There is a chance I will make it wider before my summer con but I’m also gonna try to just live with it

Rosie and Alastor as chaotic besties is one of my favorite relationships on Hazbin 😂

“Come now Alastor, she’s much too young for you. Oh, I’m just kidding! I know you’re an ace in hole!”

Got some new makeup for Rosie today so I decided to try her on for a little fit test!

Ordering her wig tonight and hopefully working on the bolero and some other details this week!

Rosie’s hat is about finished!!
