I'LL BE A TEENAGE IDOL JUST GIVE ME A BREAK

WHO: ImPorts!
WHERE: Heropa's Convention Centre.
WHEN: April 14-16, 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.



Welcome, imPorts, to the one and only FanPort! As they're driven outside of the convention center, they'll see line-ups leading well out the doors filled with those dressed normally and cosplayers alike, complete with plenty of scalpers just outside of the doors. As guests of honour, imPorts get to skip past all the busy lines and are ushered into the Convention Centre through the back doors, only to be greeted with a veritable swarm of people. The quiet room being used for the Swear-In aside, this venue is absolutely packed, and filled to the brim with enthusiasm. Venture in a little further, imPorts, and see what awaits you...

A R T I S T ' S A L L E Y

The Artist's Alley is a bustling place, filled with creative minds of all sorts. It's easy to find tasteful - and not-so-tasteful - prints of imPorts to hang on the wall from everything to Power Girl leaping heroically into the air to Dorian Gray with his back turned and a sultry expression on his face. Of course, Artist's Alley isn't restricted to mere drawings: it's easy to find piles of plushies and keychains, buttons, T-shirts, and other types of exciting merchandise!

Want to simulate the mind as well as the eye? Look no further than the piles of doujinshi ready for the taking. Most tables are dominated by interactions that are seen as at least somewhat legitimate - such as Shepenko, Geiszlieb, and Pricefield - but there are tables in the back who crow about rarepairs like Laurie/Maya, Olivier/Kang, Gansey/Manolo and more! There's plenty of creativity on display, but be careful: as long as all involved parties are of age, there may be a scene a touch steamier than expected!

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!

C O S P L A Y C O N T E S T

It's not a true convention without cosplayers, and for this event, the cosplayers come out in droves. There are those who have clearly raided their closet for ideas - claiming that they're the more ordinary looking imPorts like Jesse Pinkman or Alison Hendrix - but others have delighted in the challenge that the stranger imPorts have presented to them. Non-humans such as Kanaya Maryam and Marceline Abadeer are common for those who want to flex their make-up skills, but otherwise, heroes with identifiable costumes or who commonly wear period dress are popular choices.

And what of imPorts who want to join in? There are only two rules: imPorts may not enter as themselves, 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!

I M P O R T H A L L

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! 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.

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 clothing and perfume lines to their hemorrhoid creams.

R E F R E S H M E N T S

After all this fuss and bluster, it's time to get some refreshments. Just outside the venue, a series of imPort-inspired food tracks and stalls have set up shop, and are ready for your business! Want cotton candy in the shape of Qubit's hair? How about spooky, squid ink Scarecrow pasta? Dipper Dots icecream with a side of Mabel Mint Crisps? Some Minato Aritacos? Whatever your fancy, this is your place to find all the food you could ask for and more, complete with discounts if you're willing to show off that fancy imPort tattoo to prove that you're not just an exceptionally good cosplayer.

B A L L P I T

Even imPorts need a break from all this attention, which is where the ballpit comes in. It looks like they may have run out of funding when they planned this one... but hey, only imPorts are allowed in the ballpit room, and surely they'll be able to entertain themselves.

R A V E

As the convention begins to wind down in the evenings, other people are just getting started! The grand hall is opened up to various imPort inspired acts, including but not limited to the acts described in the last Majority Report, including new acts such as the A-T-inspired Roller Blade Bunnies, the Kid Flash-inspired All I See Is Yellow, and the Jinseok Jin-inspired Blissful Beauties. 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.

P A N E L S

PLEASE STOP MESSING UP THE TIMESTREAM

What happens when imPorts bring in their own technology to a world unprepared for it? What happens when they try traveling in time? How does this adversely affect the world around them, and how can you help stop it? Find out here, as an old man yells at an audience that's mostly excited to see an imPort in-person. Starring imPort guest: The Doctor.

LEAVE ME ALONE & DON'T TOUCH MY LUGGAGE

A short, five-minute panel in which con-goers can get the necessary information about that odd trunk with feet they've seen scurrying around. This necessary information includes: 1) leave its owner, Rincewind alone, and 2) do not touch the luggage, complete with stacks of informative pamphlets. Brevity is the soul of wit, right? Starring imPort guest: Rincewind the Wizzard.

THE UNIQUE CHALLENGES OF BEING NON-HUMAN IN A VERY HUMAN WORLD

Join some of America's non-human imPorts in discussing the trials they face on a daily basis, and why they have decided to create SELF, an organization built to help them! While this is no doubt scintillating stuff, new members and businesses that may wish to invest are welcome. Starring imPort guests: Kang, Sabriel, and more!

MAGIC: NOT JUST FOR YOUR KID'S BIRTHDAY PARTY

Curious about magic? Tune in here for a discussion of the ins and outs of magic, differences across worlds, and what it's used for! Not interested in all that nerdy crap? Make sure to arrive for the second half of their presentation for a real life demonstration of magic! (FanPort does not take responsibility for any injuries or loss of property that may occur during this demonstration). Starring imPort guests: Sabriel, Elsa Brandt, L'Arachel, and more!

RISEING ABOVE: CHALLENGES AND TRIUMPHS IN IMPORT LAW ENFORCEMENT What we should really be talking about this convention is ethics in imPorts, and what better way to start than with America's very own law enforcement organization, RISE? Find discussion on the ethics of superpowers, dangerous imPorts, and how differently imPorts from other worlds and cultures view this world's legal system. Get out your pens and paper, because there's sure to be plenty of college students writing about this as a practical assignment! Starring imPort guests: Sabriel and RISE.
BEYOND MEDICINE: IMPORT HEALING TECHNIQUES Interested in imPort healing techniques? Have some sort of nasty injury or illness that native medicine just can't fix? If you're willing to sign a waiver, this is your chance to get it cured, thanks to the saint-like generosity of charitable imPorts. Just be warned that those suffering from deadly conditions will take priority! Starring imPort guest: Jesse Pinkman.
STAYING FIT WITH YOUR DOG Think something as mundane as workout routines with man's best friend is too mundane for this convention? Think again! A real expert on exercise is here to teach you and your pooch how to stay fit with both indoor and outdoor activities, complete with a Q&A, a photo-op, and doggie demonstrations. If you're not interested, that's fine; stay for the cute dogs... or for their handsome owners. Hubba, hubba! Starring imPort guest: Commander Shepard.
A SALUTE TO THE SUPERSUIT! Who says that you can't fight crime and look stylish at the same time? ImPorts are here to discuss the dos and don'ts of supersuit fashion, showcasing the most cutting-edge suits that natives no doubt see on the news every day, and tips for all con-goers and, needless to say, extremely invested cosplayers. If other imPorts are interested in sharing, they are welcome to do so! Starring imPort guests: Echidna and Wallflower.
DENDARII SECURITY CORPS This panel is what it says on the title: a prolonged advertisement for the Dendarii Security Corps. Don't worry, though, there will likely be tales of dashing adventure, and maybe you'll even discover how the heck to pronounce Dendarii in the first place! Starring imPort guests: Miles Vorkosigan, Gregor Vorbarra, and Tex.
IS THAT A DRAGON IN MY GARDEN? All these sentient imPorts hobbling around are all well and good, but aren't you interested in what exists on other worlds? If that's the case, this panel is for you! Listen as imPorts discuss fantastic creatures, robots, aliens, and super smart dogs that just don't exist naturally in this world, and enviously follow along to the various stories those with far, far more exciting lives than you have to tell! Starring imPort guests: Hawke and The Doctor.
PHOTO-OP WITH THE BULL He's huge, he has arms, and he's got pecs to die for. What more could you want in a man? Take a photo with the Iron Bull today in his specialty booth for a small fee... and even attack him with a plastic sword if you dare. Starring imPort guest: The Iron Bull, of course!
SURVIVING UNDER FIRE: THE MILITARY APPROACH TO FIRST-AID Even conventions need to touch on serious issues sometimes. In the wake of so much violence, your charitable neighbourhood imPorts are here to show you how to conduct first-aid in tight situations, something that's doubtlessly useful to each and every imPort fan in the audience. Starring imPort guests: Kaidan Alenko and Commander Shepard.
BIOTICS 101: EVERYTHING YOU WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT SPACE MAGIC What the heck is up with those glowy blue powers from space? Join your imPort guests for a brief lecture on what biotic powers do, how they work, and what it takes to keep a biotic going. Provided is a table of food as a demonstration of just how much they eat, and more entertainingly, live demonstrations of what they can really do! Starring imPort guests: Commander Shepard, Jacob Taylor, Kaidan Alenko, and Samara.
IN THE ARMS OF AN ANGEL: ADOPT AN ANIMAL OR SUFFER CRIPPLING GUILT Have you noticed a large amount of imPorts walking around with cuddly furry, feathered, or scaled pets? That's for a reason! Join us today in a panel about the animal shelter, and the dos and don'ts of adopting an animal today! Starring imPort guest: Carl.
MAGNETS AND MOTORBIKES You see that panel above about how not to introduce technology outside of this timeframe? Ignore it! Look at cool bikes instead! Join imPorts in a practical discussion of building motorcycles, magnetic technology, and take a look at their cutting edge technology. Note: All racing that goes on outside of FanPort is not affiliated with this organization, nor is it condoned by it, and they are not responsible for any injuries incurred in outside demonstrations. Starring imPort guest: Gogo Tomago.
BUILDING THE FUTURE WITH IMPORT TECHNOLOGY Continuing the trend of bringing imPort technology to the forefront, come and watch this panel for a spirited discussion of imPort technologies, and how it will pave the way to the future and a brighter tomorrow! Want to know what it can do for you? Step right up, and take a look. Starring imPort guest: Tony Stark.
IMPORTS AND REGISTRATION: A CONTROL MODEL THAT SPANS WORLDS Join your friendly imPorts in discussing Registration, and how this has been used - effectively, even! - in other worlds! Take a look at how it's used for the safety of everyone involved, as told by one of America's greatest success stories. How could Tony Stark ever be wrong? Starring imPort guest: Tony Stark.
IMPORTS AND THE LAW: AN EVERCHANGING LANDSCAPE Want something with a lot of pizzaz, with a ton to look at, and plenty to interact with? Go to some other panel! If you're interested in law, and the ramifications of the ever-evolving state of the law in light of changing politics and the shifting population of imPorts, however, this is the panel for you, in as much detail as anyone could possibly ask for. Starring imPort guest: Mitchell Hundred.
Q&A WITH THE AMBASSADOR(S)

Ever wonder what it's really like being the Ambassador of an imPort city? Whether you want to know what colour tie the ambassador in question likes wearing, want to know more about due process, or just want to get a juicy scoop, step right up to where at least one Ambassador is ready to answer your questions! Starring imPort guest: Mitchell Hundred.

WALK WALK FASHION BABY

Do you want to get fashion tips from a preteen? Do you believe that they know what you should be wearing better than you? Well, you're in luck, because imPort kids are the best dressed around! Follow our imPort guests into a world of fashion from clothing to hairstyles to tasteful cosmetics! Starring imPort guests: Pacifica Northwest and Ken Amada.

CHUCKY KENTUCKY WORLD PREMIERE

Everyone welcome the premiere of America's newest teen pop sensation: Chucky Kentucky! ImPort fans have been abuzz since this event was announced, speculating on everything from his doubtlessly fashionable clothes to the dulcet tones of the voice they're bound to hear.

Starring imPort guests: Yayoi Nakayama, Kururu Sumeragi, Ikki Minami, and Mikura Kazuma

LAWYER AT LARGE: IMPORTS' IMPACT, INVOLVEMENT, AND INFLUENCE ON TV & MEDIA

Want to discuss all imPort-driven media? Well... this probably isn't the place for you. If you wish to discuss Jeff Winger's TV show, however, and learn a thing or two about his firm, this is the place for you! While this is mostly Q&A, don't worry; maybe Jeff will even divulge a secret or two about his killer work-out routine. Starring imPort guest: Jeff Winger.

WELSH KINGS, LEY LINES, AND THE NEW WORLD

Calling all history buffs! One of your friendly imPorts is here to teach you about natural magic and the supernatural, including all sorts of spooky splendors like ghosts, mythical Kings, and how the supernatural fits into World History. While it may be more informative than it is strictly entertaining, it's bound to be a treat for inquiring minds. Starring imPort guest: Gansey

SCREAM QUEENS SECRET PANEL

This secret panel is... wait a second. This panel isn't secret at all! Using the glories of false advertising, imPorts take the stage to announce a benefit concert to be held within the next month. Ask your imPort entertainers questions about what it's really like to be them and listen to a song or two, but if it's a concert you want, you'll be disappointed... unless you stay for the real deal for their next panel! Starring imPort guests: Marceline and Maya Fey.

SCREAM QUEENS CONCERT

Now this is where the party's really at! Join one of your rocking-est - FanPort's description, not her own! - vampire superstar in a performance ready to bring the house down. And hey, if you want to shell out some cash for some merch and support your local artists, that's certainly a plus. Starring imPort guest: Marceline.

RELIGION: HOW TO JUSTIFY YOUR FAITH IN A WORLD WHERE THE DEVIL EXISTS

Whoa. Things are getting heavy around here as one very special imPort takes the stage to talk about the influence of the devil, dispel common myths about his possession of equine features, and a meditation on what Lucifer means to the common man. Starring imPort guest: Lucifer.

KISS KISS FALL IN LOVE WITH THE PINK PRINCESS! TV SHOW TODAY!

A Q&A panel featuring The Pink Princess herself, expect droves of the kids the show is directed at, and yes, plenty of adult fans to flock to this panel in droves! Gain hints as to what the Pink Princess is going to be up to next, and look at some awfully familiar silhouettes for future partners and villains... but of course, everyone's here for one reason, and that's the cute-as-a-button leading lady. Starring imPort guest: Maya Fey

[personal profile] amadaman 2016-04-16 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
I didn't realize we treated women like houses around here.

[That irritated and low -- or it would be, if it weren't so unmistakably a child's and therefore still squeaky -- voice comes from somewhere behind and below Jaime. It's quick, maybe even quicker than the flush spreading across Jaime's face, and its owner comes stepping forward between them.

Ken... is in a dress! The skirt is poofy and almost as big as he usually is. At a glance he's almost unrecognizable with his flippy bangs tied back in a braid and face done up with make-up. Half-assing wasn't on his and Maya's to-do list. And right now this magical girl(?) with plastic-pipe-and-cardboard spear narrows his eyes at the surprised and confused vendor.]


Though I'm sure even if Traci-san wasn't dating Jaime-san, she wouldn't go for someone like you.

[Who are you to be shitting on his Jaime!]

One would hope. [ She's good at that. ] I mean! Sorry. I mean superheroing is a rough business.
performance: (nothing does compare to me)

[personal profile] performance 2016-04-16 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
That's even better than nice!

[ Especially if the pig agrees. ]

What would you say are the most important questions on here? Personal opinion.

Thinking about it. But there's just so much! Everyone here is so talented.

[ He grins, a sideways little smile. ]

Have you seen anything with yourself on it yet?

[For a minute it looks like she's fairly accepting of all this. Awful, restrictive biology, but it doesn't sound repulsively terrifying yet.

And then he gets to the part about being a compulsory cannibal.]


I . . . sorry. Did you say you eat people?
skyhiiigh: (Sunny Disposition)

[personal profile] skyhiiigh 2016-04-16 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm! I haven't been to a convention like this before, myself. Have you?

[Well, outside of his hero suit, anyways. He offers him the plate easily, smiling.]

I don't mind at all!

[ he nods, and just in case the gesture won't be enough, he will say it out loud: ]

Yes. Ghouls can only consume humans or other ghouls, though the later also tastes rather disgusting. [ implying he has eaten ghouls - because he has. it was his diet before he came here ]
pawdonnemoi: (🐾 Take it or leave it)

It is sort of a part time job back home.

The scaley what now?

Hey, hey. It's not a competition, Reyes. Besides... [ he slides his aviators down his nose, batting his eyelashes at Jaime. ] It matches my eyes.
flynnnotjunior: Flynn looking eager to talk. (interested)

Flynn Lambert | Registered | OTA

[personal profile] flynnnotjunior 2016-04-16 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Artist Alley ]

[ Flynn has his fans, though there aren't much in the way of fan art for him yet. There are no heroics or juicy scandals as far as the public knows of. He does waiver over pictures featuring Saul or Jesse. Does he buy? It almost feels like he's suffering from a moral dilemma. ]

[ ImPort Hall ]

[ Flynn is always in favour of food and they were very keen to give to him. He was chuffed to have had some made especially for him. He was less keen on the promotions though he could be found listening skeptically to one or two. ]

[ Refreshments ]

[ Flynn still hasn't had anything made after him, but he's sucking on a milkshake in a corner. ]

[ The Ballpit ]

Uh... ok. [ But he needs to decompress so he stays and finds himself half buried in a bunch of balls. Why not? ]

[ The Rave ]

[ Flynn steps in, though while he enjoys the music, there's not so much of the dancing. ]

[ Panels ]

[ Flynn drops in on the PLEASE STOP MESSING UP THE TIMESTREAM panel, because it's the first. He... doesn't quite know what to make of it, but it definitely qualified as interesting. THE UNIQUE CHALLENGES OF BEING NON-HUMAN IN A VERY HUMAN WORLD is interesting for different reasons. He's curious about these unique challenges of theirs. He shows up at Jesse's BEYOND MEDICINE: IMPORT HEALING TECHNIQUES and some of the audience points him out for healing, which doesn't please Flynn in the slightest. ]

I don't need help, thank you. [ He doesn't look at Jesse when he says this, because he knows Jesse would respect what he has to say on the matter.

After he cools off, he goes to IN THE ARMS OF AN ANGEL: ADOPT AN ANIMAL OR SUFFER CRIPPLING GUILT. He doesn't really suffer from crippling guilt, because he's working at a shelter, but he's certainly interested in what Carl has to say.

The last panel he goes to is SCREAM QUEENS CONCERT to cool off. ]

[ Steph lights up like a bulb. ]

You don't know about the scaley panties? Oh, sweet summer child, the fashion disasters you have missed. [ She waves a hand through the air, dramatically indicating an imaginary scene. ] They were bright green, a perfect match with the pixie boots. This was before disco, way back when there were so many fashion possibilities on the horizon. Then the 60s happened. Then the 70s, and the 80s. Then we all agreed as a society that we needed to stop taking so many drugs and wearing all those feathers and sequins.

A week?

[It's not so much a question as her repeating it to let it sink in. She can and can't believe how much and how little time has passed...

And Rick was gone the same time as her too? She blinks at the mere coincidence of it. And really isn't fooled by Carl's even tone. One because she misses her own parents every day, but mostly because she can sort of feel his heartache.]


And he's not back yet? [She asks as sympathetically as she does carefully. She can't do anything about it if that is a no, however if she came back she figures there's a chance for Rick to. The last thing she wants to see is another friend like her.] He could come back.

[Daisy finished taping one side of the poster with the ribbon. Standing up to see how it looked not so close up, Daisy grabbed the cup of coffee she had prepared for herself and took a few chugs from it before placing it back down on the table.]

I'm Daisy, one of Alison's roommates.

[Fuu has also discovered the ballpit in an effort to wind down a little from the crowds... it's all been very interesting, but it gets a little much.

She is, however, nonplussed at what awaits in the imPort-only room. It's even more bleak than her magazine's alternately blank-and-coffee-stained break room.]


Is it... supposed to be some kind of joke?
hyperkinesia: (bruce_aou_061_1)

Bruce Banner | Undecided → Registered | ota

[personal profile] hyperkinesia 2016-04-16 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Being among the most recent arrivals, Bruce isn't exactly looking forward to this convention as other people clearly are. He's going for one main reason: to learn more about the imPorts, the systems in place in this world, its culture, technology, politics and economy, and understand how he can fit into all that— that is, how to not get into any kind of trouble.

Registration is a quiet thrum at the back of his mind, a thought ever present but not overwhelming. He's been thinking about it, and while at first he was sure he wouldn't register, things have changed. He's not alone anymore, he has Betty here to look after, and if making sure she's the safest she can be means registering along with her, then he will.

Still, he doesn't stand out much, and being a new arrival means most everyone here doesn't really recognize him. He navigates the public areas at a leisurely pace, taking pamphlets and approaching booths and tables at the artists' alley with some vague interest, and he attends a few of the panels.

A lot of the time he'll be walking around with Betty, but he can be found on his own a few times during the first and third days, and particularly he'll be alone for most of the second day, during which he might also seem a little more distracted than usual. Or, just to make things easier, you might turn a corner and have a physicist literally walking into your path, then fumbling for an apology as he regains his balance and takes a step back, hand lifting and smile tense. ]
Sorry.


((ooc: if you'd like to run into Bruce and Betty together, let me know and we can arrange a 3-way thread!))
ichoosefight: (does it bother you?)

[personal profile] ichoosefight 2016-04-16 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Is it now?

[ Okay, she maybe kinda believes him. ]

I didn't realize it was something you could do part time without getting yourself killed.
viced: (He polished his image)

[personal profile] viced 2016-04-16 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Most of the questions about Mitchell, himself, he redirected to his website, or informed them that he didn't talk about his personal life. It was a good, and valid, answer, since he didn't. And it kept people from prying too close, something that Mitchell Hundred wouldn't allow for.

His face, when the microphone squeaked over the loudspeakers was pained -- far more than most, and one of the lights in the room flickered, but Mitchell said nothing, and when he actually spoke, and things calmed down, everything went back to normal. And actually, Mitchell was happy to talk about this. Even if it was a tricky one.
]

You know, there are a lot of moments like that, Mr. Baelish. Thank you, though, I mean, I appreciate something like that, and ah, I guess we'll start with the bad, and move to the good. The least is more of a series of events? I have to say, the lowest point was when Dr. Crane attacked a swear-in that took place in De Chima. We're used to it as imports, you know, having people with superpowers acting out -- and that's... the lightest way I can describe it. The violence in actions like that is detestable, at it's base level. But not only did he attack a swear-in, but he attacked one in my city, and while I'm not the mayor, I take responsibility for the imports of De Chima -- and responsibility for how we affect import and native lives and relations.

So when Crane did that, it was on me for not appropriately predicting that there would be something like that at one time.

But, that also leads into the most rewarding moment. I was lucky enough to contract with the Future Foundation afterward, and RISE stepped in to administer a new security system for any swear-ins in De Chima. So while this happened, I'm very proud to say that we reversed that, and have been able to prevent something like that from happening in the future.

[ He paused, and then considered -- the last question. ] Do I have time? Sorry, I, ah, talk a lot. [ He rubbed the back of his neck, and grinned sheepishly. A rumble of soft chuckles echoed through the hall. Mitchell was good at that, of course. That self-depreciating humor. ]

As a whole? I'd like to make De Chima a desirable destination for imports, whether they're entrepreneurs or inventors -- the city thrives on research and development, and I want to make sure the soul of the city is preserved, while still encouraging imports to move in. I also want to make sure the city continues to be safe, so there's a balance to achieve in that as well, and I've taken several measures to preserve the safety of both our import and local population.
