#joan thursday cosplay

[thekenobee]

It's been a while but I still am Joan Thursday IRL

[maih-em]

“ It’s probably best if you just do as you’re told “

Um so here’s my Joan Thursday cosplay! brought to you by this lovely 60s coat my grandma gave me and the disproportionate amount of mess this created (fortunately just out of shot. Every time i changed angle i just shoved the pile a little further down my bed.)

Joan Thursday cosplay

You know, you can be a real prick sometimes.

[horlicks-on-thursdays]

My first attempt at a Joan cosplay! Hopefully there's more to come ☺️ I'm really enjoying everyone's cosplays at the moment, you're all so good!!

[endeavourmors]

Inspired by everyone's amazing cosplays, here are some closet Joan Thursdays feat. glasses because I forgot I was planning on taking them off each time and also she has a fringe like her mum now, and if anyone knows how they get Sara Vickers' hair Like That please tell me I have no idea what I'm doing.

There are a few more of her outfits I could do but the stuff I need is boxed up so we can redecorate (hence the mess in the last photo rip) and now I definitely want to get more 60s/70s stuff into my wardrobe 😄

[ladyaj-13]

While I had my entire wardrobe on my bedroom floor, I also had a real quick go at Joan Thursday...? Couldn’t get any good full length shots, but rest assured these dresses have proper 60s hemlines and that’s why I never wear them :D

Gen Con Indy Attendees:

As you probably know, Gen Con event registration opens in just two days, on July 11!

Given the attendance cap and event restrictions for 2021, ASIHTB is doing things a little differently this year. Instead of our usual hands-on workshops, we're instead offering a full day of seminars. The good news is that all of our events are absolutely free with your Gen Con badge! The downside, of course, is that there's no hands-on project to take home this year. (Group workshops with shared equipment aren't really feasible with social distancing/sanitation mandates in place.)

More good news: You can attend any of our seminars even if the event is listed as sold out in the catalog. There are almost always more seats available than what is shown online, and we will allow as many people into the room as fire code/Gen Con seating density restrictions permit us to. (If you do reserve a ticket through event registration, please do be sure to turn that in to us, as ticketed attendance is how Gen Con chooses who gets room space at future cons.)

All of our seminars are on Thursday, September 16, and we're offering some new (and updated) ones this year! Here's what's on the schedule:

10AM - Go West! The Journey to the West Legend From Dragon Ball to Saiyuki, there's no shortage of adaptations, retellings, and wholesale lifts of one of the world's most popular tales. But most of the western world enjoying these retellings knows little of the original novel, and even less of the stories it itself combined and retold. Let's look at the historical and cultural context for the original 16th century novel and the lore it collected into a single tale. We'll discuss some key adaptations as well, with the knowledge to enjoy them more.

12PM - Storytime from Japanese History As the oldest monarchy in the world, Japan’s had plenty of time to have some amazing moments in history. Hear a few of the most important, most famous, or most fun—from the Genpei War to the Meiji Revolution, from girl power to magical red cows, from archery contests to smallpox—with illustrations, photos, ties to your favorite anime/manga, and plenty of geekery.

2PM - The Phantom Thief: An Illustrated History How did Edgar Allen Poe influence Sailor Moon? What do Norse gods, Joan of Arc, and Lupin III have in common? Who was the real-life Moriarty? Learn the origin of the kaitou, Japan’s archetypal thief, from his birth in Gilded Age literature to his high-tech 21st century incarnations. Follow this truly international antihero’s development through history with examples from animé, manga, film, and literature.

4PM - Intro to Sewing: Patterns Lie! (And Other Useful Facts) Want to cosplay or craft, but don't know how to sew? Learn to select and read a pattern, choose fabric, cut, pin, stitch, press, & more in this novice-friendly presentation. Bring your questions!

We hope to see you in person at Gen Con!

221B CON INTRO

It’s next week but hey better late(ish) than never? (All photos were from my computer. Literally none of them are recent but HEY MY FACE, and @thestarlitrose from 2015 221b :D)

Name: Day or Daisha (your preference, I literally answer to both)

Pronouns: She/Her

Age: 24

Located: Texas

What do you do in fandom?: I write fanfic on both AO3 & FF.net as daisherz365 while occasionally throwing lists of headcanons into the interwebs because people seem to like that ;) Oh, I occasionally gif.

How long are you staying?: Thursday afternoon through early Monday morning.

How are you getting there?: I’m flying in, arriving @ noon.

Cosplays:
 I may bring my stuff for Civil War Bucky or maybe do an impromptu Conan (Detective Conan) because why not. Undecided. Roomies: @o0katiekins0o @sherlollymouse

Where to find me: I mean I’ll be hanging around my sherlollian counterparts so? Also spending time with @orangesherbert06 too so I mean I’ll be around. Panel wise I only know I’m wanting to go to the sherlolly and Elementary/Joan Watson panel. Waiting on the schedule to  know for sure what else I may wanna check out. I will be in the artist alley as well since some of my pals will be showing off their creations.

Or huddled in a space recording stuff for my podcast. That’s definitely a thing. ;)

Drinks: I may indulge a little. Not a drinker though.

Hugs: Sure, as long as I’m aware of it and not completely surprised. I say yes.

Pictures: ABSOLUTELY. I love documenting my time at cons so I’m completely down for some photos. Besides I’ll be taking little snippets of video for vlogging purposes hehe. Lemme know if you’re camera shy and I will make sure to respect your privacy.

Anything else?: I’m quiet. Like sometimes I might not say anything besides hello and how are you and then I’m radio silent. I tend to like to watch and listen so don’t worry, I’m fine. I just like being in the moment and sometimes not saying anything helps with that. Especially when we factor in my anxiety. I’m honestly eager to have a good time. It’ll be fun. But yes, I may take a few moments away if I get too overwhelmed. Other than that, aces.

Optional Contact Details: You can message me here,  twitter, snapchat me at sincerelydayyy, or we can exchange numbers! I’m cool with most of the social media things.

Reblog this intro: Go for it!

Tagging: anybody who wants to.
