#confuzzled 2018

[grizguts]

Brie and Gouda the Sergals. Sold at the Art show at Confuzzled 2018, with 50% of the winning bid to go to the charity! Brie sold for £50 Gouda sold for £100 That's £75 to charity and material costs covered for me (The starting bids were actually both £100 but someone bid lower than that on Brie, but I caught it in time to let staff know I'd accept the £50 for the sake of the charity)

ConFuzzled 2018 (aka. my first furry con)

Alright. Here's my post about Confuzzled 2018 (which was in May) that I've been putting off for way too long, because I’m lazy and I just took so many photos XD I guess this also counts as a face reveal of sorts, as I didn't have a fursuit and I don't think I've ever uploaded any pics of myself here (I should really upload some of my cosplay pics sometime though). Photo captions are below each image, or set of images.

The first fursuiter I got a photo with. Not the first one I saw, but the first one I got a photo of :)

Noodles the Asian Dutch Angel Dragon, who I thought was absolutely adorable ^_^ I don't think I'd ever seen an Eastern-inspired Dutchie before this one. He/she(?) even had whiskers!

A dragon I asked for a photo just before another suiter came up to them and started messing around XD (Yes, the other one did get booped after the last pic was taken)

This was like an official cake for the convention or something? Either way, it looked amazing :D

A fursuiter (with another one in the background) who was playing music through a portable speaker. He was also in the fursuit dance competition later that day (I can see why)

Miscellaneous fursuiters I saw around the place whose fursuits I really liked :)

I just loved this guy. His suit was so amazing and detailed, and he was pretty funny too! This photo was taken in the queue to the Dealers’ Den - someone else in the queue asked him for a photo, and he asked them, “would you like a sexy pose or a scary pose?” I can’t remember exactly which one this was, but I think it was the scary pose XD I kept seeing him around the con, and he was honestly really cool.

Someone in the Dealers’ Den had a sketchbook that she’d been letting people doodle in for the last few years, and if you visited her stall you could doodle in it too. So I drew a badly-drawn headshot of my fursona, and @celticwarriormoon​ (who was with me) drew her dragon character Seetam :)

I only found out after the con that you weren’t allowed to take photos or film in the Dealers’ Den, whoops ^^; The person at this stall obviously didn’t mind though.

Just a Lycanroc :D

I couldn’t believe it when I saw this guy at Confuzzled! I’d seen Sunny Dingo in furry vines and videos before, but I was not expecting him to turn up at a UK con. Either way, I seized the opportunity and got a photo with him after I’d had a few snacks :D

Some photos of me with my friend @lankylunatic (as SW7 the hyena) and their friend Jasper (a monster wolf I think? I’m 99% sure). I loved hanging out with these guys so much! This was actually the first time I’d seen SW7 as a full suit in person :D I’d only seen him as a partial before Confuzzled, but as a full suit he looks even more amazing! Both of these fursuits looked way better in person than these slightly blurry photos, I really didn’t do them justice here D:

Another popufur! As if Sunny Dingo wasn’t enough, I also got a photo of Artemis :D I recognised him from his Youtube channel, Artemis Wishfoot. I think he was also at the Youtube Furs panel (but I didn’t go to that)

A kitsune I didn’t get the name of, but they had a nice design :)

A really cute Dutch Angel Dragon who was playing around with SW7 and co. I thought their suit was adorable :)

I bought a pair of wolf ears that perfectly match my fursona in the Dealers’ Den  earlier that day, and I put them on in the bathroom before going back out to meet more fursuiters. I found one cosplaying as Reaper from Overwatch and got this photo with them :D They were amazing! Unfortunately this is the only photo I have with my ears on as I wasn’t wearing them the whole day.

Another fursuiter in cosplay, this time as Junkrat from Overwatch :) The Reaper from earlier also interacted with them a bit, which I loved XD

Gaming-themed artwork on some of the windows. It was amazing :)

I thought this fursuiter was really cute! I found out recently that their name is Took :D

Some sort of zombie dog/wolf who I thought was really cool :)

A dragon whose design sorta looked Eastern dragon-ish (I think it did, anyway) :)

Two adorable Dutch Angel Dragons who I kept seeing around the con. Both of them squeaked/chirped, and one of them sounded kinda like Telephone :D I saw the one on the left nose-boop someone’s camera earlier on, and it was honestly the most adorable thing ever! ^_^ I just love Dutchies so much :)

This wolf (I think?) came up behind me as I was taking photos of the dragons in the previous pic. Their suit was really realistic and detailed :D

The main hall before the fursuit dance competition. I loved the lighting effects :)

Don’t know if you can see it that well, but the presenter of the dance comp was dressed in a Mario outfit XD

Photos from the dance comp, judges’ performance and results (I know some of them are blurry and hard to see, but I couldn’t help that with all the movement and excitement)

I got a photo with Mutley and Zephyr after the dance comp! :D I’d met Mutley before at Dublin Comic Con 2017. This was my first time seeing her in person again after that :) I also recognised Zephyr from DeviantArt, so it was nice to get a photo with her as well.

Last but DEFINITELY not least, I managed to get a photo with BeautyOfTheBass!! :D Ever since finding out about her online, I’d dreamed of meeting her in person. That dream came true at Confuzzled :’) She came joint second in the dance comp audience vote, and I was so happy for her. She also debuted the Bass 3.0 suit at the dance comp, and I absolutely love the new design! (Her old one was pretty cool as well though.) I’m kind of annoyed that my sister (who isn’t a furry) got a better photo with Bass than I did, but at least I got to meet her. It’s the memory that counts. ^_^

(I also got a pin from Bass’s stall in the Dealer’s Den earlier on, so that’s something as well)

All the stuff I got in total (first pic), and everything including stuff my sister got as well (second pic). It was a good haul, not bad for my first furry con XD

All in all, ConFuzzled 2018 was an amazing experience. I’d highly recommend the convention to other fellow furries, and I hope to go again next year! :D

Bonus!

I also got a little Bolt plushie the night before I went to the con! I saw him in a Disney store in a shopping centre and I knew I had to get him. He’s such a special boy and I love him so much ^_^ Just another great souvenir from my Confuzzled trip. :)

[lankylunatic]

The smiling maniacs have finally met one another! So happy that SW7 finally got to interact with Bass at Confuzzled this year! :D

I am so madly in love with the new suit and congrats to Bass on placing first in the audience vote and second on the judges vote for the dance comp!

Was so nice to meet Bass irl and the rest of the lab crew! All of them are so damn sweet! QwQ

Come and find F R E S H  O A T S  at Confuzzled this year probably crying and drinking. 

If you but me alcohol I’ll draw shitposts of your fursona.

[dadflux]

It's taken me a while to get this video edited together, mostly due to fitting in editing around moving house and other life stuff.

Another fun ConFuzzled came and went, bit of a shorter video this time around but I still took the time to film a few moments here and there. I had a lot of fun this year, I almost want to say that it's been the best ConFuzzled so far for me.

Trick or treat!  I found pretty sweets!

What?!  These are fake noms?!  What kind of terrible trick is this?!  I can understand Mom telling me not to nom my new puffin friend, but telling me not to nom these stress relievers is ridiculous:  No nomming is a stress enhancer!

[tuituipupu]

Did anyone else notice Pluto and Citrus commenting on Kostya’s post?

What is that boi doing, he really is extra. Is this an inside joke? Am I missing something? Does the word for octopus or squid begin with M or something in Ukrainian or Russian? He asked for words beginning with M in the comments of his post right?

I have never been more confused honestly.... Why can’t I understand Ukrainian and Russian 😩🐙

[betterwiththree]

Y’all I just started playing God of War (2018) and I am confuzzled. Here I am teaching my son that he’s gotta control his anger and some dude comes up to my house and starts calling me out? And I’m like, ‘damn I gotta go out and fight somebody I just started playing this game am I gonna get my ass kicked?’ Then I get outside and there’s this....little twig of a man??? trying to...pick a fight...with me???? like??? Who are you my dude? Why would you look at me and think you can take me on???? I am literally 3x bigger than you!!!! “you don’t want this fight” “oh I’m pretty sure I do” stfu??? no you don’t!!! Why are you here? Are you a masochist? Do you get off on big dudes beating your ass to the ground? (I mean...no judgement...I get it....)

[mxndwitch]

I want to start this day and my little love project with the real MVPs of my little fandom corner, the people who are my ride or dies forever, who have been with me for YEARS in some cases and never fail to be anything other than utterly amazing

@facemypast

Bubs, you know how much I adore you, I am sure, because we’ve been going strong since 2018 I think, but I never want to miss an opportunity to tell you how wonderful you are! Our babies give me life and the world we have created for them is my favorite thing in the world. I love having you as a friend ooc and I am so proud of the hard working, smart and kind woman you have grown into in the last couple of years. Although med school makes me miss you daily, i couldn’t be more excited for you, because you’re living your dream. Keep reaching for the stars, my dearest ❤

@shieldedsouls

My other die hard love! You and Britt have been by my side since my reboot and I couldn’t imagine a rpg world without you in it. You babes give me life and I utterly adore every other muse aside from Bucky you write, because they’re all amazing ( especially Maria, the hermit xD ). You’re one of the kindest & most loyal people this hellsite has thrown at me and I couldn’t imagine my dash and my life without you in it. Thank you for being my friend ic and oc.

@loyaltyworn / @undauntic

Dixon, you wonderful & talented bean! Man, I remember very vividly how excited I was, when we started roleplaying on Carol, because you’re so effing talented and I loved her so much. And look at us now! Bucky is the light of Wanda’s life and I will forever stalk you on any blog you make, even the characters I don’t know, because it’s you and you’re stuck with me forever. Thank you for always having my back and being the most loyal friend one could have on this hellsite!

@outlawiism​

LUCY! Holy guacamole, what can I say? You are by far the kindest, most genuinely supportive person I have ever met on Tumblr. Your presence is a ray of pure sunshine on my dash every day and you never fail to reach out & support others, when you see they need it most. Not to mention that your Peter is flawless and the love you feel for him is absolutely infectious. I am so happy we have become such good friends with time and I’m never giving you back!

@danversiism​

I’m so grateful that Lucy and you are a package deal, because that made it possible for me to become friends with you as well, over how much we love Wessa. We have the worst book club ever, because it takes us ages to read :D but I still adore our talks about things we are passionate about. Not to mention that your Carol is the only one for me and I live for the friendships our characters have crafted for themselves. Daisy & Carol are the sass squad I never knew I needed in my life :D love you to pieces!

@soulstcne​

SHAUNA! My pure, kind hearted, chaotic butterfly! What can I say, other than that I love you 3000 and that will never change? I constantly forget Aisling isn’t actually canon in the MCU, because she fits so perfectly with us that it’s hard to remember she is an OC. Wanda’s best friend is the most adorable infinity stone anyone could have hoped for! I adore your passion about plots, your adhd brain that comes up with 20 ideas a day, your love and passion for Ais & the fact that you love angst just as much as me. You’re also the cutest person ever ooc and i can’t wait to talk to you on the phone again, even when you’re a confuzzled mess and hold up your laptop for half an hour :D I adore you!

@natshana​

Bubs! You’re one of my absolute oldest friends on Dumblr, bc you even come from ‘the world before’, aka the fandom that shall not be named, which I left because it was even more toxic than the MCU xD. You know that our babes give me life and I couldn’t ever imagine a better mama for Ella than Luna. But as much as I cherish all the ic interactions we have, I love our ooc friendship even more. The sleepless nights we have spent together, movie nights & rants - I am so grateful to have you as a friend for what? over 4-5 years now? Guess you’re not getting rid of me ever again.

@somewherebetweenrage​

My home office buddy! I remember when I first followed you over on River and had absolutely no clue about her at all, but I liked your kindness right away. And look at us now! We became fast friends ooc and I adore the worlds we have created for our characters. Laga and Erik are the ship I never knew I needed, until we started writing them and oof, they own my whole heart now. Can’t imagine my day without chatting to you now and although you haven’t been in my life for as long as some others on this list, you make up for it by being an utter delight!

@gcroinya​

The one true Nat to all my charas! I remember when we first started writing and I was in AWE at how talented you are and guess what, nothing has changed since then! Your writing is just so flawless, I have no idea why you even put up with me, but I love you so much for it haha. Ella and Nat are my favorite thing ever and I am the happiest person ever that you have returned from your hiatus, because my life was missing a bright light without you in it. 

@hebled​

Ah, my babe. You have no idea how incredibly happy it makes me that you have come back to tumblr and still love our babies as much as I do, because I missed you every day you were gone. Beck and Wanda own my whole heart and I am so grateful to have you as a friend ( and pen pal! ) outside of this hellsite as well. You’ll always be the better barista of the two of us :D but I’ll still love you forever!

[epicwolfofdarkness]

Confuzzled photos will come in the next few days! I promise!

If you’re wondering why I haven’t posted about Confuzzled despite it being over a month ago, it’s because I have way too many good photos XD My birthday is tomorrow, but I’ll try to finally get that post made in the next week or so. Stay tuned! :)

[artofchinara]

Different anon than before, but since Shellshock has been brought up I may as well ask- is chapter 66 the last chapter written? It appears to have been made in 2018 but I can't find any further chapters? Sorry I'm just confuzzled! On that note I adore Shellshock and Captain Polaris both, and ngl you sold me on Ratchet x Azimuth

Hi there! 🤗

No, Chapter 66 isn't the last one written. I think we have material for 3 more chapters - though we haven't finished the story itself. I think one or two more would have to be added on top of that.

We are currently rewriting chapter 67 as some parts of it definitely are no longer suitable for our standards in 2020 - given that it was written, what, in 2014? - so that you can have an enjoyable reading experience 😜 as a teaser for the content, just enjoy the chapter cover for now!

Oh and: THANKS SO MUCH FOR SUPPORTING BOTH SS AND CAPTAIN POLARIS!!! 😭😭😭 this means a lot to me that you enjoy both works!!!

"Special Agents by Pure-Eyes"

Last year at Anthrocon 2018, I saw on twitter that CorditeManedWolf ( https://www.furaffinity.net/user/corditemanedwolf ) was looking for a hotel room, since he wanted to briefly visit the con. Since I had some space in my room, I offered him the spot. He returned the favour with this cool painting with the both of us as special agents.

This awesome picture by Pure-Eyes ( https://www.furaffinity.net/user/pure-eyes ) even made it into the 2019 con book of "Fur the 'More 007: Furry Never Dies" that Cordite attended. Unfortunately I was unable to join him there, but the picture will also fits perfectly with the Confuzzled 2019 theme, where I'm registered.

[a-garden-of-worlds]

2018 Leo runs fast to hide behind 2012 Leo because 2018 Raph is currently unavailable and 2018 Don is out for Murder.

2012 Leo, while confuzzled, tries to defuse the situation. Le(on) however, is not making it easy.
