::Naoki pulls up a chair, pulls out his notebook, and makes doodles of his cat::

So this is like a... hangout for all the rock bands, ne? Can't wait to see who all shows up.

Naoki is the bass guitarist for Lullaby Dementia (LalaDei), and his AIM is NijinoNaoki.

-Tooru sits next to Naoki and pulls out a cigarette, but is kicked out of the room before he can even light it.

Shrugging, 'At least there's no snow storm this time.'-

Tooru from Lullaby Dementia.

Tooru's AIM is ToronKun7180.

As for tips... if you're a female cosplaying as male and you're making your own design, don't make the outfit backless. Binding is way worse when you have to you tape directly on your skin.

-Kaminari walks and poses-
The diva has arrived!
Kaminari of Sweet Sweet Cyanide here.

I now have an AIM - view me at SuSuKaminari

*Amaya prefers to stand in the back of the room like the brooding violinist she is, but not before smacking Kaminari in the back of her head with her Pocky katana*

Don't let being the lead singer get to your head. Remember who actually FOUNDED the band.

*points to herself while lighting a Pianissimo Peche, then sticking a piece of Pocky in the other side of her mouth*

Amaya Yamanaka, founder and first violinist for Sweet Sweet Cyanide, a.k.a SuSuSai.

*Yuki Nishino also comes in*

Amaya: What are you doing here?!

Yuki: I AM the band's manager, after all.

Amaya: GET OUT!! (picks up her Pocky katana, and Yuki backs out of the room) Anyway, I don't have an AIM yet. I don't know whether to use AOL or my primary Yahoo!. But when I do, I'll let you all know.

-Kaminari glares at her brooding bandmate-Yeah...sure...
Anyway, I'm the face of SuSuSai... -glances at Amaya's pocky Katana- sort of....

[KusanagiRobin]

I just realized; you know how many people at ACen '09 will be trying to take a bite out of my Pocky katana? And I still don't know what to make the sheath out of.

I want a picture of that!
as for the sheath...I have a visual idea but I'm not sure what type of fabric to use. it should look like the pocky box but be more...pliable so it's light weight....

::aika flounces in with miki and kaito following sleepily behind. She runs up to Amaya-kun and clings while snuggling.::

Aika-chan here! ::squee:: I'm the flutist and sometimes composer for Sweet Sweet Cyanide! ::dances about in her frilly skirt, candy beads clacking in her hair.::

AIM: aikaXKaito
Miki is too young.
Too many pedobears out there. ::growls:: MYMIKI

[haku_hei]

Akane the drummer of Naked dragon blood is here to

just so Yei doesn't feel alone...^^


AIM: DragonNj

[KusanagiRobin]

*Amaya uses her Pocky katana to push Aika a few feet away* Why must everyone snuggle me? Don't make me remind you of what happened a few months ago...

*flashback to a few months ago*

Aika: AMA-CHAN!! (runs up to her, not noticing that she's still smoking...)

*end flashback*

Amaya: I don't wanna smell burnt hair ever again...

[CrimsonAnime]

-Kaminari laughs loudly-
Aika-chan! You should really stop messing with Amaya-chan. Then again....
-remembers flashback- never mind what I said. Hug her, glomp her... -pulls out camera and popcorn-
....
wait...
KAITO! -glomps-

[stalking_sorrow]

*As Rei enters the room he notices Tooru down the hall with cigarette in hand. A small smile appears. He walks in and notices Naoki drawing his cat again... His head turns slightly and his face turns a little red when he sees the girls from SuSuSai. He pulls up a chair next to Naoki*

Hello, I am Rei the drummer of Lullaby Demenntia, pleased to meet you. *stands up for a second and bows*

AIM= stalking_sorrow

[CrimsonAnime]

-is hanging off of Kaito and loks at new person- Hello.

[Rini]

::growls::
R-a-p-e get that thing away from me. Here, there, everywhere stay ouuuta my underwear!

Get off kaito!

And ama-kuuuuun.
Don't you love me?
::starts to cry::

[KusanagiRobin]

Oh, I love you. I just don't want you (or Kaito) to get singed.

[CrimsonAnime]

-Still clinging to Kaito- I think that's for him to decide Aika-chan

[KusanagiRobin]

You know, it just occurred to me...SuSuSai doesn't have a drummer. And we only have one guitarist. What do we have so far...

--guitarist (not sure if it's bass or not)
--flutist
--two violinists
--lead singer

that's the instruments I know of, at least. so far we're more alternative rock than J-rock...

[CrimsonAnime]

You're right...wow...well we still have a few months left....
lol

[RitsukasMemory]

You can have those as your main members and always take on temporary drummers and occasionally have drummers from other bands guest star.

::Tooru returns from cigarette break to hear SuSuSai's problem. Shoves Rei towards the girls with a malicious smile::

-Here, you can borrow Rei-chan.-

::Steps back in case Rei's cheeks start to literally burn::

[KusanagiRobin]

Our all-girl image is slowly crumbling. There's too many cute guys on this forum...

(Yuki pops back in)

Yuki: Including me, right? (smirk)

Amaya: OUT!!! (whacks him repeatedly with her Pocky katana)

Anyway, let's get the ball rolling with a topic. What do you guys draw your costume/music inspiration from? Of course we're not just talking about bands, either. It could be a particular trend that caught your eye. For me, Amaya came out of her brooding ways--I don't think she's so much Gothic Lolita as she is just simply Gothic. I also wanted to incorporate ancient Japan, hence her kimono tops, updos with dozens of hair accessories, and an obi--gotta put that Pocky sword somewhere.

Oh yea, and let's not forget SuSuSai's trademark sweetness. I think in the next few months I'll be busy making dango accessories, and apparently the particular brand I have in mind has a name. Sometimes called "bocchan", it's the type most of us are familiar with. Usually comes in threes, one is pink, one is white/yellowish, and one is green. That's gonna be so much fun....

::curls up in a corner with miki and kaito and falls asleep.::

[CrimsonAnime]

Kaminari is a cross between Naoki (LOVE YOU!!!!) and Amy Lee.
Oh - and Medieval times.
If I bring her back again for 2010 I might make her outfit more...tavern wench/gothic lolita.
Something like this http://www.4hallowee...mages/16541.jpg

And maybe with a grim reaper theme as well. With a mike stand that looks like a scythe.
And this wig - http://amphigory.com/wigs_blink.html - but with a little more curl...maybe...

wow...mad I thought about that....

-Hideki sneaks in and up behind Yei. He reaches around and gropes her.-

Hello Yei-chan! Did you miss Hideki?

Hideki here, second guitarists and back up vocalist for LalaDei. I mostly do the lalalas or the oooos. But once Tooru's throat cancer kicks in and he has to get part of his throat removed, I will take over the main singing role.

-Hideki smiles and waves-

[CrimsonAnime]

Oh how lovely...Hideki...
That's not creepy at all....

[RitsukasMemory]

::Tooru glares at Hideki before shoving him towards SuSuSai::

-Here, take a second guitarist as well. You can keep this one.-

As for inspiration. For ACen 08, after our group was formed, T_C showed us her design and we all worked on our own design. I don't think we had anything really, it was kind of a simple one, mostly focusing around black and a few other colors, each member picking their own colors.

I'm pretty much a pure blood tomboy, if that makes sense, so Tooru is pretty much me with even more masculine tendencies, so I just design things that I like and want to wear.

For ACen '09, we've already decided our idea is going to be focused around white with some blues and purples, I believe, and we've decided on a bit of a royal court theme, though I don't know how particularly strong that theme is going to be. We've already decided our theme, and possibly a tour name for ACen '10.

[Rini]

mmm maybe we should all tour together?
XD

<3

::Aika clings to Ama-chan::
i sick ;-;

Hello Yei-chan! Did you miss Hideki?

Gyak! .....::turns around and clings to Hideki:: OF course I missed my Hideki! XD

So...yeah....LalaDei...I need to talk to you guys about "The Idea" that Hideki, Naoki and I came up with....SO if there's a day and time you're all free...we should all get on AIM and have a conference. (I'll TRY gathering my guys as well...either that or I'll just have most of them over at my house, and we'll all just watch the screen)


Ok...I'm going to be VERY vague about this...so if you don't get it....message me and I'll tell ya

Since the "tour" will consist of LalaDei and NDB being the headlining bands...maybe we could have SuSuSai as one of the openers?? (along with Yei's side project)

(I figure...we should do this for 2010...because this is going to be HUGE! ...and we need MUCH time to prepare)

[CrimsonAnime]

SuSuSai as an opener?
Excuse me...I think you made a typo with that...

But we'll gladly go on tour with you
