[fefairys]

patreon

[microwaveabl]

It really is awesome! I went with my friend @afeelingofdread last year and we're going again this Saturday, with me as God Tier Dave and him as Grimdark Rose!! The place itself is awesome and they have really good themed drinks and food, and some really cool merch!

Not to mention meeting a bunch of other Homestucks and seeing their sick cosplays too!

Do you guys know of the Requiem Cafe in Anaheim? They theme their Cafe around different Fandoms, and this year is the second time they're doing a Homestuck themed thing!!

sure do! it seems very cool & silly in a fun way but none of the new mods or Dave live close enough to actually consider going
