#human con

It’s Autumn, time for Human Con.

In their little pathetic world humans, pretend to be fantasy/fairytale/non-real creatures. Here, in our world, we pretend to be “ordinary humans”. It is fun. I am a venomous Gorgon-Medusa, which means if I decide not to turn anyone to stone, my snakes can bite them and kill them with poison; and I am going to be a “house wife”, my boyfriend is a Mountain Werewolf, to differ from the other kinds werewolves, the mountain ones were mostly in light gray to black shades, with more rough fur, to prevent the cold wind; and he is going to be a “garbage man”.

At the entry was full of “humans”. I saw one of my best friends, he was “school teacher”/Blood Demon, the one you sacrifice a virgin to, or promise your first born, or simply bleed to promise your future bloodline to, if you want something of him of course/. His sister /Succubus/, also girlfriend, because that is what demons do, was a “Britney Spears”, with sparkling short dress, and a microphone; and he was with an old light brown coat, black pants, glasses, and papers in hand, constantly asking around, if everyone present their homework in time. I saw a Warlock, dressed like a scientist, holding a sign “magic doesn’t exist”; there was one of the winged ones, dressed like “Castiel” from “Supernatural”, with a huge coat, to cover the wings; as he was asked where are his wings, and he answered with “Castiel has no wings, most of the time, he is looking like human, so do I”; his girlfriend was like “Hawkgirl” from “Justice League”.

-        Poor them, they cannot hide their wings, but at least they look dashing.

-        Any garbage to throw away? Or broken plates, or horrible dinner?

-        Hey, I cook very well.

-        I know – he whispered – I am still alive, aren’t I?

-        Bad dog!

-        Lizard!

We entered the main hall. So many humans, it felt like we were In their world. There wore some of the Larp/ Live action role-playing/ division: humans oriented – mostly shapeshifters, or shapeless creatures, wearing charms to look like humans, they were our personal spies, entering the humans world, to see what are they up to, does they believe in us, are they close to discover our world, or does they lure someone of us to enter theirs. They learned most used human language and customs. They constantly looked and acted like humans, it was amazing, but a little creepy.

A Tele-Mater, duplicate itself in all genders and ages, and cosplayed a “human family”, starting with the grandparents, their son and daughter, their significant others, with their parents and younger siblings as well, and the little children of them all … they were around 20 pieces. All arguing with each other, the little ones whining and screaming, it was a fuzz … walking disaster, humans cannot control their offspring, it is known, but it was quite fun.

Another Succubus was dressed like “crazy old cat lady”, she was indeed followed by bunch of cats. There were some small dragon dressed like the Gargoyles on the human churches.

Some of the eternal spirits took the shape of “atheists”, walking around saying “God doesn’t exist”, wearing white shirts and black skirts. While they were walking around, repeating this, they saw Cthulhu in his “human form”, tall slim boy, long black hair, pale skin, blue and black eye, and very charming smile, He was with his girlfriend Idh-Yaa, also in human form, with short dark red hair and green eyes. They were also dressed like “atheists”. After the shock at first, because not every day one meets an Ancient Gods awaken from their slumber, the spirits joined them, “preaching” others about the lack of existence of gods in general. I could tell the Elder Gods had a lot of fun proclaiming how they do not actually exist.

After lunch, was the cosplay show. Everyone, wo wanted and made the arrangement of course, go on stage, show their costume, some played a little performance. The “crazy old cat lady” counted her cats, they were one short, and she started yelling who stole her cat. A Soul eater, who was dressed as a school girl, cried because she didn’t score perfect on the test. The Warlock, explained some human science theories revealing that magic doesn’t exist and can be proved by science.

After the show we manage to take some pictures with the Ancient Ones, also with the “human family”.

The first price won the warlock, he was a high rang one, for his “magic doesn’t exist” - best costume idea and performance /the Ancient Ones, does not participate in the contest, as the eternal entities, because they would have won/. For most extravagant cosplay, won the “human family”. Best with the original one - the “school teacher”/the blood demon/. Some of the audience asked of it is possible to give their homework tomorrow, he joked that, if they sacrifice something their heart holds dear to a blood demon, an arrangement would be possible.

I took a picture with the Gargoyles, you know – flake power! Also some of the harpies volunteer to take pictures with me too, also with the winged ones. They were themselves, but looked cool too.

The Ancient Ones were in good mood, taking pictures and “blessing” stuff. All the magical creatures went to pay their respects, especially the shapeshifters, they were the biggest fans possible. I took some amazing pictures with some Mermaids too. They were dressed like “hairstylists”, and the Sirens were like “ugly girls”.

While traveling back home, I was beyond exhausted, but super thrilled by the experience. It was my first time attending Human Con with a costume. My boyfriend was a basic slut in this one, attending for 6 years straight. He knew almost everyone there. Like a legend!

-        I want to go again next Autumn!

-        It’s going to be next Spring. You know next Autumn is the Awaking of the Shadows.

-        Ah, yes. So next Spring then.

-        We are going to the Awaking right.

-        Of course, don’t be ridiculous. I want a picture with Cthulhu in his real form.

-        I bet you envy Idh-Yaa.

-        Who doesn’t?

-        She is an Ancient God as well, you know.

-        Yeah, yeah! But he was created first! No, he created himself, then he created her, to be perfect.

-        And she was.

-        I would’ve been very mad, if you weren’t talking about an Ancient Goddess. – we both laughed.

We make this little cons to mock human race, in a way. We did not quite hate the humans; we simply know them better than we would like to, as in “know your enemy”. We are not in war, but piece is not possible either, let us just say we are prepared, in case they invade us some day.
