FANPORT JUNE 2017

WHO: ImPorts!
WHERE:Nonah Convention Center
WHEN: June 23-25, from 9 AM - 12 AM every day.
WHAT: Registration is in motion alongside FanPort, the most popular imPort convention around! Come on in and see imPort-led panels, the artist's alley, cosplayers, and more! If you have any questions, or wish to amend the way we have written up your characters' panels, let us know here!
WARNINGS: None anticipated; please let us know if this should be changed.

Locals, imPorts, come one and all to FanPort, the annual gathering of imPorts and imPort enthusiasts! Registration volunteers are wrangling the long, long lines wrapping outside the convention center, but attendees are passing the time by competing in a contest sponsored by a local radion station: to create the best imPort-themed viral video clip and post it to social media! #PowersPower #Fandemonium #FanPortVIP

Unless they choose to mingle, as guests of honor, imPorts get to skip the line, receive a gold-trimmed IMPORTANT badge and be escorted through a secure entrance into the convention center proper. But there's no escaping the crowds once they're inside, you will be rubbing shoulders. This year's FanPort is seeing record attendance, and the venue is swarming with enthusiastic con-goers. Once they make their way past an impromptu welcoming committee of squealing fans, imPorts can explore...

ARTIST'S ALLEY

The bustling ballroom is full to brimming of fans selling their creative wares. Hundreds of prints are available for purchase, featuring everything from Magnus Burnsides striking a heroic pose to an artful portrait of Dandy Mott in his study, with his tie unknotted and dribbling down his front. There's even an action crossover depicting the Blue Beetle versus Iron Man, or Jesse Pinkman dancing with Reggie Mantle. Crossover time!

Other tables feature 3-D creations, with maskets full of keychains, buttons, T-shirts, homemade plushies and more. If you can dream of it, it probably exists, and it would be a challenge to name an imPort without some kind of creative representation!

Some artists and fanfiction writers have teamed up to create doujinshi about various imPort couples. imPorts who are known to be seeing each other are likely to see a drawn version of their relationship in this section, but there are also true rarepairs that go against canon, like Lapis Lazuli/Shale, Frederick Chilton/Sam Merlotte, Kitty Jones/John Murphy, Danny Pink/Mitchell Hundred, Jessica Jones/Laurie Collins, Han Solo/Luke Skywalker, Count Dooku/Archie and Rusty Venture/Sadie Doyle. And some of these books are sultry! Outright SHOCKING. You really must buy a few, if only as gifts.

If you don't see what you want being sold already, there are plenty of commissioners who would leap at the chance to provide an imPort with a custom print or doll, just for them! Although some of the dolls getting in the way of the big, popular ships may just be used as voodoo dolls, so watch out!

COSPLAY CONTEST

What's a fan convention without cosplay? There's not a single room in the convention center that lacks multiple cosplayers, but many of them are in it to win it at the cosplay contest. Some have gone to store after store to buy just the right street clothes to accurately portray imPorts like Daryl Dixon and April Ludgate, but others are up for a challenge and are showing off incredible armor creation or sewing work with their Riptide, Maeve Millay, Jean Grey, Petyr Baelish, Doreen Green, and Kanaya Maryam costumes.

And what of imPorts who want to join in? There are only two rules: imPorts may not enter as themselves, nice try jerks, and nor are they allowed to use shapeshifting powers. Other than that, they're welcome to join in on the competitions and the festivities! There are awards being given for everything from Best Performer to Best Costume to Most Accurate Posing, so jump in, and enjoy! ImPorts ARE free to give their own input (or imPut! Haha! So funny!)

IMPORT HALL

Aside from the panels, this is where imports are welcomed as special guests! Above the entire affair is a huge sign that reads, cheerfully: "WELCOME IMPORTS!". Here, imPorts are welcomed to set up their own booths to sell their goods, autographs, and pictures, advertise their businesses, or to simply meet some of their fans! A special photo-op booth is available for imPorts who are game for one-on-one meetings but don't want to set up a booth. Security is tightest around this area, but only for the safety of imPorts; if any fans get a little too touchy-feely without the imPort's consent, rest assured, they'll be hauled out in short notice. There is also a special demonstration area, marked off with cones, where imPorts may show off crowd-appropriate powers for some oohs and aahs.

This is also the place where willing and participating imPorts are showered with special gifts featuring everything from fanmade scrapbooks of their public exploits and fanart, home baked goods, or samples from all sorts of corporate representatives eager to have imPorts represent everything from their makeup lines to their gas-buster pills.

REFRESHMENTS

Forget the generic, slightly stale burgers and fries most commonly found at convention centers. Just outside the venue is a series of imPort-inspired food trucks and stalls. Ready for some Persephone Paprikash? What about some Emmett Brown-ies for dessert? Delicious! And we can't forget the line of So Carbonated They'll Make You ~~Tina~~ Belcher craft sodas. imPorts get a discount if they show of their tattoos to prove they're not just fantastic cosplayers!

DESIGN-YOUR-OWN POWER STATION

This year's FanPort has a special charity room for imPorts who feel like doing some community outreach. Long-term patients at Nonah Children's Hospital who are well enough to travel have been brought to the con, where imPorts who sign up to volunteer will help them dream up their own powers, design their own superhero costume and dress up using a wardrobe of donated costume parts. Each child can then pose in front of a green screen with their favorite imPort to create a superhero team-up!

RAVE

The first two nights of the convention, attendees can get their groove on after hours! The grand hall is opened up to various imPort inspired acts, such as the Woden-inspired Welcome to Valhalla, the Yurio Plisetsky-inspired Ice Ice Babies, and the Stark family-inspired Kings of the North. All of these shows are complete with light shows and complimentary glow sticks, and once the clock hits past 9 PM, a bar opens up in the back for natives and imPorts alike, provided that they're of-age — and yes, they will be checking their IDs!

Want to get your rock on? These acts will gracefully step aside to allow imPort musicians to take the stage, but will respond even more happily to jam sessions.

Chilton's conclusion is that the longer you are in this world as an imPort, the more dramatically the environment affects you, sometimes profoundly influencing your behavior in unpredictable way, and he argues that the data supports a myriad of impacting variables within that environment, with no one singular cause to blame. Starring imPort Guests: Frederick Chilton and Joseph Kavinsky

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[ Lucky for him, Adachi happened to look back at him at that moment. Something like a smile came onto his face then, and he nodded back briefly. ]

[ Things weren't going to be easy, but at least he was smacked back on the right path. Literally. ]

[ After the nod, Viktor keeps his gaze on Adachi for several moments longer, the look in his eyes intense, trying to convey a message.

Don't look away. I'll show you I'll get better.

He only breaks it to turn and wrap his arms around Yuri, hugging him tightly despite everyone looking at them. ]

[ Adachi raised an eyebrow at that, a bemused look coming to his face. Viktor, what the hell are you even planning? Still it was good to see him hugging Yuri again, and see what looked like the two of them actually making up. ]

[ He smiled faintly, before leaning back in his seat, watching the stone faced guy going at it. The guy was good, obviously a professional like the rest of them, but he didn't have the same kind of emotional polish as Yuri and Viktor. ]

[ Viktor hugs Yuri for a long time, several minutes in fact. When he finally pulls away, he's smiling too, and then he's heading over to the bench, taking off his shoes. He'll be skating then! He even brought his skates, bringing them out while he hands something to Yuri too.

He heads out to the ice with a faint laugh back at Yuri who obviously grumbles something back, Viktor waving it off, almost like his care-free self again. He spends a few minutes warming up on the ice, and Adachi finally gets to see how Viktor performs in front of an actual audience. He practically holds them in the palm of his hand, knowing how to bring cheers out, how to entertain and grab their attention. It looks as natural as breathing to him.

Once he warmed up (is that enough time for him? it barely felt like a few minutes), Viktor skates to the center, signaling the tech guys to begin his track, and some familiar music starts to play ...

On one of the turns in the beginning of the program, Viktor catches where Adachi's sitting, throwing him a wink, knowing he'll catch the meaning behind it. ]

[ Yeah, no, that was definitely not enough time for a warm up, especially since he doubts Viktor has been practicing that much, and even more so when he recognizes the song that comes on. That thing was long, and he wasn't entirely sure that Viktor could skate the whole thing without falling over. ]

[ ...and then he had to go and wink at him. ]

[ Adachi very nearly groaned, rolling his eyes skward and trying to fight against the heat coming to his fac. This impossible man! He pulled himself together in the next moment, and he was sure not to take his eyes off of what he was doing. The target of the ice dance was immediately obvious, and thank hell for that, because if any of that had been aimed at him, he would have jumped onto the ice to smack him again. Still, more than once he felt himself ready to leap out of his seat, worried that Viktor was going to fall over any second, or worse, over exert himself to the point of passing out. ]

[ He was releaved when he came to the end, rising from his seat slightly as the crowd around him went nuts, waiting to see how Yurio was going to react. ]

[ It doesn't look like he reacted much at all? Just standing there at the edge of the fencing as he watches Viktor with tears leaking from—

Oh. I guess that's a reaction, huh?

And then Viktor practically collapses on him, too tired to keep himself standing while he leaned down to hug the smaller Russian, making them fall over onto a small snowdrift (how did that get there?). Yuri looks disgruntled by this turn of event, but at least it looks like Viktor is laughing, if still exhausted. ]

[ Adachi stood from his seat when he saw the two of them fall over, worried to the point that he almost ran over. He stopped when he saw Viktor was laughing, however, blowing out a breath. Geeze, that man... For a moment, he wasn't sure what to do, and he stood there awkwardly as people started to file out, talking animatedly about what they had just seen. ]

[ It was a moment before Adachi finally moved, smiling softly as he stuffed his hands in his pockets. He watched a moment more to make sure they were going to be okay, before turning to leave himself. ]

[ That was probably a good move for all their sake's, unfortunate as it is.

Later though, once the skaters are done with their autograph sessions and are rested enough to wander through the rest of the event, Adachi will find he closed his eyes and turned around at precisely the wrong moment. Viktor makes a light "oof" sound as Adachi runs right into his chest, making him wobble the slightest bit.. ]

Careful!

[ Adachi definitely didn't expect to hit the wall that was Viktor (and his amazing chest). He stumbled back, tripping over his own two feet, and his hands shot out, grabbing onto the only thing they could reach. ]

[ Which of course was Viktor. ]

[ Or more specifically Viktor's shirt which is, y'know, attached to him. And down they go~ Viktor tries to catch himself so he doesn't land fully on Adachi though he's only partially successful. ]

[ This did not go according to plan, or at least not to his plan! Adachi let out a grunt as he landed on the ground, and then a grunt again as Viktor half landed on top of him. Thankfully he managed to avoid putting his knee in any unfortunate places when he landed, but it came uncomfortably close. ]

U-um. Hi?

[ Hopefully no one noticed this. He didn't want to deal with fan girls right now. ]

[ There was NO PLAN INVOLVED in this, especially because Viktor's abused body did not need anything else straining it more than it already was, ow. It takes him a moment to get his breath back, having landed awkwardly on his hand which tweaked his shoulder, but yes, thankfully that knee didn't land anywhere damaging.

And yet again unfortunately, there appears to be a small horde of fangirls leaving "hall 8" with bags of dubious contents in tow, one of them squealing at the sight they must make which draws the attention of her fellows in short order. Sorry Adachi, it really isn't your day today.

Viktor leans up shortly after the squeal, sitting up to a kneeling position around Adachi's thighs and blinks down at him while he rubs at that shoulder. ]

Hi ... guess you didn't see me in time, huh?

[ Ugh... why?! And how could Viktor just ignore them like that?! Adachi tried not to look in their direction, least he end up drawing them closer or something. He shuffled out from under Viktor, trying desperately to make it look like he wasn't being straddled, but there was just no saving this situation. There was literally no way to save this at all. ]

Ah, no; sorry about that.

[ Viktor's had years to learn how, so. But yes, it does look an awful lot like straddling. "Hall 8" will see an uptick in TohVik pairings now.

Viktor waves it off with the hand not holding his shoulder, smiling faintly. ]

It's fine, it's fine~ You okay? I know I'm heavier than I look.

[ More squealing follows that confession. ]

[ Adachi flinched at the noise, surprised glass didn't start breaking. Geeze, women... ]

I'm fine, but is your shoulder okay?

[ He reached over without thinking about it, placing a hand over his in an attempt to get him to move it away so he could get a look. ]

[ And still Viktor seems at ease with the noise coming from them,barely even blinking. Viktor lets his hand be pulled away easily. ]

Ah, it's fine, I just landed hard against the ground is all. Honestly, my feet hurt more than it does.

[ Probably didn't help that Adachi wasn't letting go of his hand. If anything, he held it a little tighter. ]

Well, duh! You did that entire program with barely any prep and it was ridiculously long on top of it! You're lucky you can even move!

[ He calmed down a little after a moment, looking a little embarrassed. ]

...well, I mean. I'm glad you got through to Yurio, but still.

[ He blinks at Adachi's outburst for half a moment before giving a gentle huff and a soft smile. ]

... Which made every part of it worth it. Though it wasn't me getting through to him.

Eh...?

[ Adachi stared blankly. Wasn't... that the whole point of that performance? What the heck else was he trying to do there? ]

[ He'll leave Adachi wondering about it while he moves to get up, tugging Adachi up along with him. ]

So are you enjoying the event? It seems pretty lively over there ...

[ He doesn't have a clue, and he's about to ask what he's getting at, before he finds himself being pulled up easily. Viktor's a lot stronger than him, and it shows; he could probably lift him up over his head and it would barely take any effort. ]

[ He gave him a flat look at the statement, still not wanting to look at the fan girls. ]

Viktor. They're fan girls. You're giving them a show.

[ Like he had no hand in making it worse. ]

[ Viktor probably could since Adachi's lighter than Yuuri. He finally blinks as if the fans were just registering for him and he glances over at them. ]

Well that's not strictly true, there's some boys in there too.

[ And then the idiot gives them his Gold Medal Smile and waves at them. ]

Hi~

[ Adachi finally glanced over at the fans then, an annoying look on his face. They really just... needed to go away, but there was no way that was happening now, with the way Viktor was practically encouraging them, and there was nothing they could do to discourage them either. ]

[ ...so why not feed into the hype? ]

[ It was seriously dumb, and he probably shouldn't do this, but it would serve Viktor right for making him worry, and it would serve Yuuri right for disappearing like he did. He let out a breath, before grabbing Viktor by his shirt, pulling him down to his level. ]

...you really need to stop being such an unintentional flirt, you know.

[ He stumbles just a little, caught off-guard by the yanking and one foot needing to move an inch or two to rebalance himself, head coming down a couple inches to meet Adachi's. ]

[ Poor Viktor, this really seemed to be a thing with him and Japanese men, not that Adachi would know that. He chuckled faintly, though it was hard to hide the fact this whole thing was making him nervous. ]

I know you said not to give in to their demands, but you're making that hard. Especially with what you just did.

[ Adachi paused a moment, letting out a faint noise. ]

...every time I try to push you away, you drag me back. You're so unfair.
