Shutting One Door, Keeping others Open

UPDATED ON 8/20/21: Facebook, Patreon and Blog IG pages have been shutdown/discontinued As the COVID pandemic rages on and cons are even shutting down into 2021, it got me thinking on a drive home one night about how I'd feel with even coming back to blogging. When cons eventually do come back at some point. Truth be told, many of the posts and content I shared here could be transferred over to more discussions via my podcast CosplayBytes. I've been blogging my love for games, cons and cosplay for 7 years now and maybe it's time to say goodbye for now? My podcast has gotten me some incredible opportunities as a member of Press for conventions, and the rapid love I've had for streaming is also taking up a lot of time now. On top of multiple personal things on my end, I don't think I have the energy to keep this up even post COVID you know? The very first cosplay centered post I wrote was on Jessica Nigri's Deadpool, and since then it's spawned over 800 posts

Cosplay Feature: Vampy Bit Me's Agnés Oblige!


One of the games I'm really looking forward to playing is Bravely Default for the Nintendo 3DS. The game made by Square Enix has gained lots of love for being a call-back to some of the old school RPG's like Final Fantasy and Chrono Trigger. Another person who definitely loves it is cosplayer Linda Le/Vampy Bit Me! How much does she love it? Around the time when the game came out to shortly afterwards, Linda picked it up and I swear all I saw from her were tweets and post to how addicting this game is for her. Grinding up to level 100 for the main characters and maxing out job levels. This was definitely something Vampy enjoyed playing on her travels to cons and free time. It's no surprise that she eventually created a cosplay from it and the character she chose was Agnés Oblige in the Vampire job class!

When I saw the ears, I was not expecting it at all to look vampire related though you definitely can make the case for them being bat ears. The black coat and gloves are elegant looking and the white collar makes this more like an adorable vampire rather than a menacing one. The suit itself is a crop top with a variety of different angled belts with buckles and shorts for the pants. Knee high socks are also shown with a black star pattern and a brace on one leg. Not only that, but Linda made a prop for her which is one of the weapons used for the class! The sword is beautifully painted with a blend of pink and purple. The location used in the shoot is beautiful and perfect for Agnés. The brown hair looks incredible on her as well!

I know you told me to wait for when you made the second prop to do this feature Vampy but I had to do this cause I didn't want to wait to talk about how amazing this cosplay is. If there's one thing I love about her is she takes lots of characters from some of my favorite RPG's like Luca from Chrono Trigger and more recently, Tifa Lockhart in her original outfit from Final Fantasy 7 (WHICH LOOKS AWESOME) :D Enjoy the photos guys!
