Re: Tali'Thread vas Clan Zorah nar BSN 6.0

There's a local anime convention I'm going to today that I only heard about 3 days ago. They're having a cosplay event, so I plan on wearing something I made a couple years ago. I hope it stays together. Never done anything like this before. It seems small, but I'll go and have a fun time today.
