To the Con
Apprentices are a pain in the backside! Ez has been bouncing around the house the last few days since she found out that she can go to some Convention in Washington DC, Cat Sue Con or some such thing. Apparently it’s for all of those weird Japanese cartoons she watches.
I honestly don’t understand the fascination with giant monsters and robots, or school girls in sailor suits. Maybe as a witch my life is interesting enough that I don’t need to escape into fiction all the time. I hope that Ez grows out of it.
She’s planning to go there with her boyfriend that she thinks I don’t know about. I don’t disapprove of having any relationship but if he interferes with her training I’ll be wearing him! And possibly her too.
Anyway Ez wants to go to this Convention in Cozplay. I think that’s Japanese for looking like an idiot. She’s going to dress up as one or more characters from these cartoons. I’ve seen some of these cartoons and clowns dress better than most of these characters. I told her that as long as I never see her wearing it she can dress up as whatever stylistically brain damaged person she wants to.
Ez was worried that she couldn’t go as the “Cow” spell Circe put on her came back. It took her all week to get rid or it again. She had missed some spell strands the last time and the spell was able to grow back. That’s a nasty little trick Circe likes to play on magic users. I told Ez that a big hat, loose blouse, and a long dress as well as some heavy make up would hide all her bovine features, but she didn’t like that idea. So she’s human now, at least until the spell kicks back in again. It looks like she got it all this time, but I wouldn’t be surprised if parts of the spell come back and she gets a tail or hooves all of a sudden.
She might have a VERY interesting Convention.

[Ah, anime. Mrs. Magnolia, I must say that though most of them dress..........stupidly....not all do. As an example, i would point out Vash, from Trigun, but I doubt you know what that is. Anyway, he dresses...fairly well, with a crimson trenchcoat. And on a side note...please don't come to Floridia for a vacation..and turn people into clothes...well..at least not me anyway..please? I rather like moving...and not hanging in a closet.]

The folks from 'Cowboy Bebop' have...reasonably decent fashion sense. The men, at least.
That's an interesting thought, actually...Faye Valentine as a real cowgirl...

We have a big anime con here in Boston in April. Lots of cosplayers. People dressed as characters from anime, video games, and even some american cartoons.
I'm sure you'd like anime if you gave it a chase, Ms Magnolia. Some of the characters are almost as smart and playful as you.

[Well, technically he is a plant.....male yes...but a plant. he is not human. Why do you ask...and do you think he dresses well?]

If I give them a chance.
A plant? Goodness, um, I can't think of a clever way to respond to that, but it does make me wonder about the Japanese all the more.

[Um...is it a good thing that you can't think of something clever...or should I be scared for stumping you....]

I don't think Vash is a plant in the standard leaves-and-roots sense...he's essentially a very powerful natural battery, sort of.
I wonder what Circe would think of him, though...does she do plant transformations, or animal-only?
