And here's what you need to know about it, if it's something you care about.
How long are you going?: Arriving Thursday night, leaving Monday morning.
Who will you be with?: My fiance,
, as well as hanging out with random fur friends.
How do I know what you look like? Red hair, girl, 23 years old, 5'10", wearing a red panda tail. I may put up a picture of myself before the con, so you all know who to look for. I'd really like to chill with people who read my comic in person. I'll have my badge on, too, that will say 'Spix' or 'Spixy'.
What suits will you have? No suit yet, just a tail.
Can I touch you? I love hugs, but please no tackle-hugs from behind, as they scare me (unless you're a close friend, or especially poofyknave, lol)
Can I talk to you?: DO IT Just don't start telling me how much you like to masturbate to my comic in creepy detail to my face. I take no blame if I run away crying if you do that, ha ha.
Can I take pictures with you? I prefer not.
Are you nice?: I'm shy, and blush easy. I apologize in advance for my awkwardness orz
Can I buy you lots of drinks?: I fucking love coffee and if you buy me coffee I will give you 10 hugs and maybe even a sketch or something.
Can I hug or snuggle you?: No snuggling. Hugs are fine, as I said, but if you start getting touchy feely, I will get mad, and so will Toby. He may or may not punch you in an effort to defend my honor.
Do you do trades?: I'd like to! Last time at MFF I took on too many commissions at Artist's Alley, and had no time for trades. This time will be different, now that I know my limits better.
Do you have an artist table?: I'll be in Artist's Alley a lot.
Do you like parties?: Not really. I like hanging out, so I guess a tame party is fine. But I don't like to dance.
If I see you, how should I get your attention?: Please for the love of all that is holy don't yell out "SPIX!" For those not in the know (Just as I wasn't when I picked my name), it turns out Spix is pronounced the same as Spics (a racial slur for Mexican people), so while it's fine in text, here on the internet, it's not fine to say it around certain people in public *fails*.
So yeah, please call me Spixy, or Spixystix, or anything but that, ugh. Live and learn, right?
I went up to the con registration and typed in my badge name. After it printed, the guys at the stand yelled out "SPIX!" over and over. I wanted to die, lol.

Ha ha ha. Yeah, a lot of people don't even know about the racial slur, but it's still awkward just in case someone does know it. I first found out about it when I made a fur friend who was Cuban, and he pointed it out. He knew I didn't do it on purpose though, so he wasn't mad, at least :p
