Convention Photos Backlog!

PopCult Anime Con is a small convention that I have several friends who are part of its staff. I went last year and enjoyed myself, so this year I invited another friend to join us! Due to staff bestie @hopismyhero running the manga café, we were able to host a gathering/tea party for the Twisted Wonderland people there. We had lots of tea and snacks!
