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!

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!

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!

Starring imPort guest: Mitchell Hundred.
Q&A WITH THE AMBASSADOR(S)

Starring imPort guest: Mitchell Hundred.

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. Come see his premiere for yourself -- but come early, because there will surely be a line-up out the door! Starring imPort guests: Edward Elric AKA Chucky Kentucky, Winry Rockbell and Roy Mustang.

AIR TREK: THE COOLEST TECH AROUND

So, what's with those rollerblades you see around town? Find out here as imPorts do a live demonstration of what A-T is really capable of!

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

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

Normie Osborn | Registered | OTA

[personal profile] notyourfathersosborn 2016-04-15 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
A. The OsCorp Booth - ImPort Hall
[The banner says OsCorp, but the large-ish booth situated near the back center of the Import Hall looks more like a brightly-colored science fair. There are posters describing various quick and easy science projects, with staff members on hand to help kids create their own projects, such as rubber band-propelling popsicle cars, potato clocks, and slime, and explain the science behind it. In the center is a small arena where kids of all ages are fighting simple robots they (under staff supervision) put together. At the front of the booth are little OsCorp-branded freebies like pens, notepads, keychain flashlights, and mini frisbees, and plenty of literature about the Allan Foundation, Normie’s nonprofit STEM program.

Normie can often be found wandering around the booth, dressed sharply in one of his best suits, praising children on how well their project turned out, or encouraging parents to get their kids involved in the Allan Foundation’s afterschool programs. If you’re lucky enough, when you walk by, he might be offering something in little paper cups to the crowd.
]

Would you like to try some liquid nitrogen ice cream?

B. Wandering Around
[That isn’t to say Normie’s spending his entire day at the OsCorp booth. There are things to see and fanworks to buy. And, seeing as he’s a huge dork that’s not on the clock, he’s cosplaying to boot… As Riku. Keyblade and all. As the costume is merely the symbiote working its alien shapechanging magic, the hair, clothes, and keyblade are spot on. Walking the floor, a lot of Normie’s thoughts are consumed with how Riku could possibly see anything with all this hair in his face. No matter how hard he tries, he keeps bumping into people he thinks are off to his left or off to his right.

This instance is no exception, as he rams right into someone he thought he was clear.
]

Oh my god, I’m so sorry. Are you okay?

C. Artist's Alley
[By the time he makes it to Artist’s Alley, Normie has more or less figured out the hair in his face thing, at least to the point where he’s not a hazard to everyone around him. He makes the rounds looking for merchandise of people he knows.

Instead, one of the artists recognizes him beneath his mountain of newfound white hair and starts bombarding him with questions, ultimately asking if that means they were an item.
]

I-I, uh, no. We’re not—I’m married.

[Normie blinks as the artist starts to squee.]

No, not to him!

[personal profile] resipiscent 2016-04-15 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Why did he come back here? He's pretty sure he's seen all the embarrassing things he needs to see for today.

Riku figures he might as well just wander around for a bit, then, when he happens to look up and see another (maybe the fifth) cosplayer of the day, talking to one of the artists who has a table here.

He makes to walk by -- maybe they won't notice him if he's quick -- and then there's a familiar scent in his nose and he stops dead.

... Is that...?

Slowly, Riku turns to stare at the back of the cosplayer's head.]


Normie?
notyourfathersosborn: (pic#8440809)

[personal profile] notyourfathersosborn 2016-04-15 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Normie had been waiting for Riku to find him, because he knew that any reaction his friend might have would be hilarious.

If only it wasn't in front of this particular fan's table. The squeeing noise she makes rings in his ears as he turns to look at the real deal.
]

You have the worst timing ever, dude.

[Still, he waves the hand holding the faux keyblade in greeting.]

Hey.
resipiscent: (uhh...)

[personal profile] resipiscent 2016-04-15 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I could see that...

[He peers around Normie's shoulder to the girl at the table, who looks like she might be about to lose it.]

... Is she okay?
notyourfathersosborn: (pic#8440836)

[personal profile] notyourfathersosborn 2016-04-15 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
She's somehow gotten the impression we're married?

[He's so confused as to how that even happened.]
resipiscent: (what no)

[personal profile] resipiscent 2016-04-15 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
...

We aren't, [he says helpfully. How did she even come up with that one?]
notyourfathersosborn: (pic#8440853)

[personal profile] notyourfathersosborn 2016-04-15 03:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[Wow dude say it with a bit more conviction. Don't you have a boyfriend?]

I'm married to someone back home. She's never come here.

[The artist finally stops squeeing, but now she wants to know why Riku let him borrow his clothes.]

Whoa, we are not that level of close. Not that I wouldn't lend him a shirt if he needed one or something, but in this instance it would just be weird.

This is just a costume.
resipiscent: (smile)

[personal profile] resipiscent 2016-04-15 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know where he got that, [he supplies, though he has more than a minor inkling.

Riku steps back a little, so he can see Normie's full outfit. It looks exactly like the one he showed up initially in -- he still wears the pieces of it every now and then, but not usually all together like this. He himself has his hair pulled back, and so from a cosplay perspective, Normie is a little more accurate than he is. According to other cosplayers, anyway.]


Not bad, though.
notyourfathersosborn: (I make awesome stuff)

[personal profile] notyourfathersosborn 2016-04-19 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Normie fights the urge to give a little twirl as Riku checks out the other's handiwork.]

Not bad? I feel like my tailor's going to be insulted.
resipiscent: (smilefold)

[personal profile] resipiscent 2016-04-19 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, I think they'll understand.

[He folds his arms, looking facetiously judgmental.]

Points for accurate hair. Apparently I don't get a ten on that one.
notyourfathersosborn: (pic#8440807)

[personal profile] notyourfathersosborn 2016-04-22 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
They've been called many things, but undertanding is not one of them. Some might even go so far as to call them vindictive.

[Not that the symbiote would get bent out of shape over a clothing critique, right?]

Well you dared to tie it back. How can anyone recognize you?

[ Of all the people to bump into, it's Tony Stark. Of course, it's Tony Stark. Who went stiff for a moment, before he whipped around, reflexes sharper than he normally let on -- but danger would do that to someone. His mouth was open, about to say something, when he realized who it was, and he started, before he stopped -- a moment's pause, his eyes rapidly moved back and forth while he took in Normie's details -- before he started again. ]

Nice costume, Mr. Osborn.

[ A pause. ] Did you make all of that yourself?
notyourfathersosborn: (I make awesome stuff)

[personal profile] notyourfathersosborn 2016-04-15 03:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Why thank you, Mr. Stark.

[Normie attempts to push the mountain of white hair out of his face, but that's all it is: an attempt. No sooner does he move to slick it back does it all come slipping through his fingers and fall back exactly where it used to be. Cartoon physics is no match for him.]

While the Osborn's, Allan's, and Nelson's are all multi-talented, I'm afraid sewing isn't among our list of skills. No, I had someone make it for me.

[Technically not a lie!]
liverletdie: (Coffee afficionado)

[personal profile] liverletdie 2016-04-17 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
Huh. Maybe next year I should employ them. I can't exactly design a costume with my talents.

[ Actually. He could. The issue was that he didn't really want to. That would get into weird territory. ]

Who are you supposed to be, anyway?
notyourfathersosborn: (pic#8440835)

[personal profile] notyourfathersosborn 2016-04-19 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
Given your mechanical know-how you could make a suit like... what's his name... Tiger something. Or his partner, the blond guy. Though you look more like Tiger something.

[The idea of Tony cosplaying anything is hilarious, so of course he wants to see this now.]

My friend, Riku. I thought it'd mess with him.
liverletdie: (I trust you)

[personal profile] liverletdie 2016-04-21 05:15 pm (UTC)(link)
I think I'll pass. Nothing better than the original, right?

[ There was a pause, then, while he looked the costume over, like he was observing the way it looked. ]

He likes to have a lot of extras on his clothing, doesn't he?
notyourfathersosborn: (pic#8440835)

[personal profile] notyourfathersosborn 2016-04-22 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
I can't say I know enough about tiger something or the blonde guy to make that call.

[Yes, he knows you were referring to yourself, Tony.]

His jacket zippers seem to have zippers, and he's got this unnecessary wristband thing--[Normie holds up his hand to prove his point.]--But it's not the worst outfit I've ever seen. The huge pockets are nice.
liverletdie: (Heh wow)

[personal profile] liverletdie 2016-04-22 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
What's the practical application for that?

[ He asked, and his lips quirked in thought, before he leaned forward, like he was trying to make sense of it all. The entire thing was... it looked like hot-topic had gotten drunk and vomited all over. ]

Where does he even get these normally?

[ Kaneki certainly doesn't recognize Normie at first, actually believing he was just another fan. That's until they bump into each other and the familiar face finally hits ] it's alright I'm-

ah. Normie? [ wow. what are you wearing?

In any case he hasn't spoken to him since... well, he saw Kaneki eating at the submarine. Not something he would like to recall ]


Nice cosplay.

Re: b

[personal profile] notyourfathersosborn 2016-04-15 03:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[Since attempting to push it back hasn't worked, Normie's new method of getting it out of his face is blowing on it, which is what he does now to properly see Kaneki's face for about half a second before the strand falls right over his eye again.]

Yeah, hey. Thanks. I figured Riku would hate it, so I decided to mess with him.

[That's how friendship works, right?]

You're looking much better.

It seems like the cosplay is messing with you instead. [ a beat ] Do you need a hairpin? [ it'd come in hand.

still he looks a bit amused until that comment comes - and you know what? Kaneki will sound as relaxed as possible about it ]


I am. No longer locked inside a closed space with people I might attack helps.
notyourfathersosborn: (pic#8440854)

[personal profile] notyourfathersosborn 2016-04-19 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think I've ever had bangs before. If I did, I certainly never had them this long before. I just--how does anyone see like this?!

[He blows on a strand once more.]

Thank you, but I'm going to attempt to manage. [His voice lowers.] Or I'll just change it so it's a little shorter.

[The perks of your clothing basically being a sentient alien goo.]

I can only imagine how... claustrophobic you were. [But he saw the way you tensed when he brought it up, so he promptly drops it.] At least now we have 3 days to goof off. Were you here this time last year for the last one?

It's probably a matter of getting used to it.

[ he hums ] i don't think anyone will criticize your cosplay just because of some bangs.

[ but anyway.he will take the chance to switch subjects. He doesn't think anyone wants to talk about that one time Kaneki ate a Russian guard while they were locked inside a submarine ]

yeah, I was. This is my second convention. Still weird, regardless.
