I suppose we've all been there when we've been stressing out about cosplays or cons/expos that we end up having dreams/nightmares about them.
Just last night I had a funny dream about being in a hotel miles away from the ExCel centre, and the cheapest way to get there was by cab. I didn't have enough money/didn't want to spend my money and went on the Underground, even though I heard it was costing £1,250 to get to ExCel.
Very weird.
Got any to share?

| Lady Bahamut Joined: 04 Apr 2009 Posts: 545 | I've started having my expo dreams >_< And they always involve something going wrong for me 8D
My first one was my boot covers coming off my boots in the middle of the expo and I was very upset over it >_< The second was that I forgot my wig cap and so couldn't put my wig on 8D And I couldn't buy any either, weird XD __________________

But they generally consist of me forgetting my wig/vital part of costume or missing half of it because I get lost/can't get my costume on etc. . . But there's still just over a week to go, I bet they'll come flooding in the next few days Dx __________________ MCM Expo, London, May 2012: Friday: Sherlock (BBC Sherlock) Saturday: Ambrosius (CATS OC) Sunday: Sherlock (CATS OC), Sherlock (BBC Sherlock) |

In the dream, Expo wasn't on the weekend, it was on a schoolday instead, so i had to ditch school to go. And being the nerd that i am, i felt very uncompfortable doing it. And then when i got there, noone else was cosplaying O__O |

Also various costume going wrong type ones. One where I was cosplaying the 10th doctor, but I had a black suit jacket and grey pants and no wig... I explained con nightmares to my mum and she explained that when she was taking us to cons she had them too. It rubbed off on her :c |

| CrystalNeko Joined: 12 Oct 2007 Posts: 1020 | I don't think I really get cosplay nightmares... Just general Expo ones where I oversleep and miss my coach ROFL. Cause I'm a lazy arse like that and it's totally doable by myself orz.
I've become pretty laid back with my cosplays now, probably because I'm just so damn lazy. I don't know why I sound so happy when saying that :'D |

| SephNoir Joined: 07 May 2008 Posts: 348 | Worst I've had so far was last night; I got a call from my feather supplier saying they'd forgotten about my order and it wouldn't be ready for another 2 weeks after expo. T.T Thankfully all the feathers actually arrived this morning so at least the dream didn't come true at all! |

| x-xTsuki-Yuki Joined: 17 Jul 2009 Posts: 42 | Last year I had a expo dream...? Or much earlier than that but it was about the day of expo and I wasn't even wearing my cosplay. When I was running back home (gosh, why do I even try? lol), I was running so slow, so terrible and I didn't even get to expo at the end of it because I woke up XD;; |

I had a dream a while ago that I was wearing my Sora cosplay, My friend had left me to go talk to a L cosplayer. So I started talking to a Roxas coslayer, then the rest of his group showed up and it turns out that the Roxas cosplayer was part of ParleProductions. Another one I had was that I was kidnapped by a Demyx and Axel cosplayer. :/ __________________ GRAAAGH~ |

| Nachtangel Joined: 22 Mar 2010 Posts: 123 | I keep having horrible dreams about forgetting my ticket, or buying the wrong train ticket and ending up somewhere else o.o I had one that I kept buying the wrong ticket but then finally got there (After going to the beach, and being stopped by the queen having some weird procession thing), only to realise I didn't have my suitcase T_T
I'm making a huge check list to make sure I don't forget ANYTHING. |

| Amy-Lou Joined: 21 Jun 2007 Posts: 376 | I had been fine, but after reading this thread I had a cosplay dream. I blame you all Every time someone pointed a camera at me the wig I was wearing would slip right back and I'd be tugging it back on in every photo. Not wearing any long wigs to Expo though, so it won't get me there! |

| GoldieNeko Joined: 12 May 2010 Posts: 172 | I always have the same worry that I'm gonna forget my ticket for Expo! Even more so now cause it's a print out which is up on my pinboard nxt to me mac atm.
I also fear forgetting any vital part of a cosplay (this time tis the shoes and zentai hood I fear forgetting). I plan on QUADROUPLE checking my packing before I even think on leaving the house Friday morning! __________________ ![]() |

| Garthamus Joined: 29 Jun 2010 Posts: 11 | I had my first expo/cosplay nightmare last night. I dreamt my neji hyuuga contact lenses had for some reason expanded and the design on the lenses had come off. Also for some reason this happened at a swimming pool!
Despite this dream's strangeness when I woke up I still went and checked my contact lenses to see if they were ok |

| TawenCooper Joined: 25 May 2009 Posts: 23 | Never should have watched Inception... I was sick and occasionally delirious while at Amecon this summer. I had a dream on the Thursday night after we arrived that I woke up and it was Monday. I was obviously confused that I had missed three days and thus the whole con so I asked my friends what was happening. They told me I'd been unconscious for three days. When I asked if they were worried or why they didn't take me to hospital they fobbed me off, saying it was fine. Smelling a rat, I asked if I was dreaming. They said I wasn't and to stop being silly. I asked three times during my dream if I was dreaming and each time they answered in the negatory.
Needless to say I was rather confused when I awoke to find it Friday, that I hadn't missed the whole con and that all my friends weren't a bunch of idiots who would leave me unconscious for three days without batting an eyelid. I'm still not entirely convinced I'm awake now. __________________ Deviantart - http://tanwencooper.deviantart.com/ |
