#quantum leap cosplay

[fandomfixation2]

I am going to a costume party on Saturday.

I am dressing as Al from Quantum Leap. The hand link needs some work but otherwise how’d I do?!

This is the outfit I based mine on:

Cycle 99.

The sky above is blue, and there’s only one sun... but otherwise, it feels like home.

i don't post much (any?) of my cosplay on here but these photos turned out so well i had to share!! shoutout to my friend mel (@baroqueblood on instagram) for capturing these incredible shots of my lup last month :,) i'm so so proud of this cosplay, i've slowly assembled it one piece at a time over about 2 years and i think this is the best version of it so far!

IT 1990 feels/vibes came back with a Vengeance, & now I have to Actually Write the 3-4 pages I've been rotating in my mind for the last couple days. This is maybe a good thing we'll see lol

Still working on my Al Calavicci cosplay. The accessories have honestly been the easiest ones to get, even the handlink! (I haven't ordered yet, but someone from Reddit is selling custom handlink phone cases on Etsy) It's finding the right type of pants and then being able to afford everything (god, clothes are so EXPENSIVE these days!!!).

I used some of my Christmas money to buy Al's ring. Okay, well, not the actual on-screen prop, but one of the many versions of that ring that were popular back in the 50s or whenever.

Here's a link to my Twitter thread that includes links to listings of these rings on Ebay and Etsy: https://twitter.com/GamingJoy515/status/1609625946415407104

DS9 Season 5 Thoughts

So, last season ended on... pretty much the same note season 3 ended on, which was that the Changelings had infiltrated positions of power across the galaxy. Let's see if this season they actually do anything about that.

1. Apocalypse Rising: Sisko, O'Brien, and Odo get to cosplay Klingons as they infiltrate the Empire in order to expose Gowron as a Changeling. But it turns out they had the right place, wrong guy.

2. The Ship: Sisko finds a downed Jem'Hadar ship and says "finders keepers", but a Vorta shows up and asks for it back. It takes half the crews of both sides dying before they realize that the Vorta just wanted to retrieve a sick Changeling from the ship, making the entire stand-off pointless.

3. Looking for par'Mach in All the Wrong Places: WTF is this title and WTF did I just watch? Worf wants to make the moves on Quark's Klingon ex-wife, so Dax sexually assaults him to take his mind off it. Meanwhile, O'Brien has to keep removing himself from situations where he could cheat on Keiko with Kira because he totally would if he could.

4. Nor the Battle to the Strong: Good lord, this series was even prescient about putting yourself in dangerous situations for social media clout and then quickly getting in way over your head. At least Jake was able to admit he was a dumbass.

5. The Assignment: Keiko trolls the shit out of O'Brien by pretending to be possessed by a wraith in order to finally get some goddamn respect. That's my interpretation of this episode and I'm sticking with it.

6. Trials and Tribble-ations: lol. To be fair, I did see this specific episode back in the 90's because a friend of mine taped it and insisted I see it, but at least now I have context for who all the DS9 characters are, and it made it even funnier.

7. Let He Who is Without Sin: Dax drags Worf to Pornworld against his will, then calls him "controlling" when she does her own thing without any regard for his feelings. Then she acts all surprised when he sides with the people protesting irresponsible self-indulgence.

8. Things Past: Odo, Sisko, Dax, and Garak get Quantum Leaped into some Bajoran slaves in the past, but it turns out Odo was just having an anxiety attack over a mistake he'd made and dragged everyone else into it.

9. The Ascent: Odo and Quark get jealous of Kira and Dukat having gotten two "mortal enemies go road-tripping" episodes, decide to go on one themselves. Meanwhile, Jake and Nog become roommates, but now ironically it's Jake who's the undisciplined one while Nog is more responsible.

10. Rapture: Everyone gets new uniforms, causing Sisko to see obelisks, make maps out of his mashed potatoes, and go on crazy rants that are enough to deny Bajor entry into the Federation, eventually forcing Bashir to lobotomize him.

11. The Darkness and the Light: Someone who wasn't even part of the Cardassian military manages to covertly murder most of Kira's former resistance members, putting the competence of the actual Cardassian military to shame.

12. The Begotten: Odo's a dad... again, and has to lose the child... again. But at least he got his shapeshifting back from it.

13. For the Uniform: The Maquis start using chemical warfare against Cardassian settlements, so Sisko uses chemical warfare right back at them. And everyone's just... okay with this?

14. In Purgatory's Shadow: The episode opens teasing a Garak/Bashir road-trip, only to bait-and-switch it to a Garak/Worf road trip, only to Uno-reverse-card it back to Garak/Bashir. Also, if Bashir's been replaced by a Changeling since before the uniform switch in episode 10, then which one got frisky on Risa?

15. By Inferno's Light: Dukat gets tired of being the butt-monkey for the past couple seasons and joins the Dominion. Meanwhile, Worf spends the entire episode getting beaten up, as Worf does.

16. Doctor Bashir, I Presume?: One episode after getting the real Bashir back, the Doctor from Voyager shows up to offer to make a new fake Bashir, but then Bashir's parents show up to reveal the real Bashir has been a fake Bashir all along, so they're already all good.

17. A Simple Investigation: Odo gets his cherry popped by a woman who turns out to be a bit of a Changeling herself: in that she's actually a completely different person living under an assumed identity, and also already married.

18. Business as Usual: Quark gets roped in with some weapons dealers and sabotages the deal after learning the weapons would be used for genocide, deciding that financial bankruptcy was better than moral bankruptcy.

19. Ties of Blood and Water: Kira decides to copy Garak from a couple episodes ago and has her Cardassian father figure show up just so he can die in front of her of medical complications.

20. Ferengi Love Songs: Quark goes back to his mother's house to help other Ferengi come out of the closet.

21. Soldiers of the Empire: Worf takes an assignment on a ship with the worst Klingons in the galaxy, and Dax invites herself along because she can't imagine Worf being able to function without her telling him what to do all the time.

22. Children of Time: The crew find a planet inhabited by their descendants, who inform them they they're going to get sent back in time and then have nothing better to do but breed like rabbits. But Future Odo realizes they've already hit their time-travel quota for the season and stops it from happening.

23. Blaze of Glory: Sisko and Eddington go road-tripping to stop some missiles that don't exist, because it was all a ruse to allow Eddington to go down fighting for... basically no reason.

24. Empok Nor: O'Brien and Garak take some gold-shirts with them to go exploring a seemingly abandoned Cardassian station, with predictable results for the gold-shirts. Garak also realizes there hasn't been an outbreak of crazypox for a few seasons and wants to have his go at it.

25. In the Cards: Jake really, really wants a Pokemon card.

26. Call to Arms: The Federation is forced to abandon the station after the Dominion and Cardassians attack, but Sisko swears he'll be back because they're not about to change the title of the series to "Terok Nor".

So, now that we've left on a cliffhanger of the station being abandoned to the Dominion, I'm curious how long into the next season that status is going to remain. Even Picard getting kidnapped by the Borg only lasted until the first episode of the next season. Plus things are going to get pretty cramped if they have too many episodes with only the Defiant set to work with.

Bashir is finally growing on me now that he's abandoned his bravado and womanizing and focusing on being a doctor. He was single-handedly ruining the series for me in the first season due to being such an insufferable creep. But it's also been revealed that he's genetically enhanced, so he's still kind of annoyingly The Special in some way, but at least he doesn't rub it in people's faces.

Dax is also starting to finally develop a personality of her own, which is conceptually a plus, it's just that her newly-developed personality is really annoying. She's basically just a troll and a gossip and doesn't seem to care about how she makes other people feel. She forced herself on Worf, then he entered into a relationship with her out of what seemed like obligation, at which point she's just been incredibly controlling and manipulative of him. Which, maybe that's a Klingon thing and they go for that, but from a human perspective, it's uncomfortable.

Also, I recently learned that Nog's actor was nearly 30 while playing him here. All this time I thought he was, like, 12, but no, he is just the ultimate short king.

Also impressed at Kira's actress being able to fit back into that jumpsuit so soon after having a baby. Hopefully she'll get more episodes next season, since her pregnancy this season limited what the story could do with her.

So with that, onto the next season of Terok Nor Deep Space Nine.

One time, in roleplaying games, a player in the party wanted a backstory from earth wherein they were transported to the fantasy world and had given up getting home and taken up as a sellsword. I made it so that nobody ever believed their character's story and it turned into a thing.

So, halfway through the adventure, they found a poster for a meetup of "Isekai Survivors Anonymous", a group for those who never got to, or have yet to, return home. This was the player's big chance to be believed finally.

So the group meets and it was strangely all fantasy species from the game world itself, no humans at all, including a faun who was precisely cosplaying a crunchy west coast barista from earth. This bewildered and frustrated the player because they knew everybody in the group was "faking it".

It sparked off arguments whereby the player was trying to convince Barista Faun that they were not from earth, but then were clapped back with aggressive espresso knowledge and recipes for environmentally responsible Grow Methods, including detailed recipes for making "llama tea" in a pillowcase.

The rest of the party found this funnier than Isekai Guy, which was funny for me but i wasn't out to ruin anyone's day so i didn't dogpile too much. I made the faun something of an arch-nemesis, a recurring character who'd try and catch up with his ISA support buddy every now and then. I even snuck in a few slightly off details of earth during arguments, just to see Isekai Guy rave at the error, but then find that nobody else was from earth so they had no way to prove it.

Another ISA member had a little gnome buddy with a contraption called Ziggy, who followed them around giving them reports on the "situation". The problem was that none of the other players had ever watched quantum leap so it was wasted. I could've stretched that on forever but I plan on using the concept in future games anyway just for my own enjoyment if nobody else's. I have problems.

alright I need more blogs to follow because my dash is 99% supernatural at the moment, and I know there are more lovely blogs out there I just haven’t seen yet!

so reblog if you gotttt:

-batman, DCAU, telltale, fun batfamily stuff, pretty fanart, general DC etc etc. (any/all ships and characters are chill! *okay but pls not a ton of that HQ animated show, it’s really not my vibe) -BATJOKES* (*but: no joker/harley hate pls! they’re cool too & people who don’t judge others based on weird shipping morals are hot m’kay. Also— yes as mentioned I love Telltale, and okay I enjoy LEGO batman too lmao, but I’ve noticed a lot of fans of those Jokers don’t like the ‘darker’ portrayals and will hate on them. so yeah I am not lookin’ for blogs that compare joker versions. With the exception of Leto and some newer comic-y stuff, I pretty much love them all. Arkham games? Btas? Dark gangster vibes? All good, yes please.) - NBC Hannibal (still love this fandom) - Pushing Daisies - Star Trek (TOS) (yay for cozy colorful nostalgia!) - Quantum Leap - Death Note / Free! / fun pretty anime stuff idk - Lois and Clark - X-files - Owl House - cosplays or fanvids. I make and appreciate both so lemme share your stuff! - general chill-ness. I’m here for a fun time.

also if you wanna fangirl (gn) together from afar I am happy to be chipper mutuals. feel free to hit me up whenever or interact in tags, this goes for all my followers too ofc :)

Progress on the Al quantum leap cosplay

Sitting with my Babby dolls; Babby Weegee and Babby Dazzy. 💚💛🧡 I wuv my Babbies. 🥰 Today was my Uncle Dave and Aunt Trish’s wedding anniversary. I was their flower girl when they got married in 2000, and was their cameraman last year at their 20th anniversary renewal of vows with my “niece”, Sarah Elizabeth, as their flower girl (shes their daughter, and therefore technically my cousin, but I’m so much older that she calls me Aunt Allie and I think of her as my “niece”). 💐💍🔔💒 My Bro Mikau dude got hit by a car earlier this week, his foot got run over, and thankfully he listened to Uncle Dave and Aunt Trish about going to the ER. Turns out he has a fractured toe that could easily break. 😰 M got a dr’s note to take the week off, but he’s hoping to get back to work this weekend. He got invited to his Capoeira class in the park today, just to hang out since he can’t play with his injury, and me and Rob walked him there, before heading back home to pick up the groceries left in the hallway from Instacart. M got a ride home. We’ve been watching Doctor Who and Loki. Both exciting time travel shows! We’ve always loved time travel growing up with Quantum Leap and History of Trunks with our faves, Android twins 17 and 18; Mikau and I, who are like twins, cosplay them. 😎 My 4th year anniversary with my spirit husband was this month, nearly a week ago. I love Karasu, in the ways only I know him… 🤫💕🖤💣💜💕 Also can’t wait to go to the beach! 🌊🧜🏼‍♀️ Weather goes between warm and cold rain. 🥶 Gives me aches and pain, on top of my “mysterious” fatigue the past few months… gonna see primary care in late July about that, and keeping the social worker and APRN updated on my wellbeing like how I’m sad and still mourning Mrs. Villani; I miss her so much, she was like a second mama to me being my best friend Matthew’s mom. 😿 Okay, I’m on a tangent now… don’t mind me. Getting old and ramble-y. 😅 #personal https://www.instagram.com/p/CQP6IAWLZc2/?utm_medium=tumblr
