Rozen Maiden and Costume College!

Read volume seven of Rozen Maiden last night while waiting for Wonderful Husband to come to bed. Bad things happened, and good things happened, and light purple doll #7 is as insane as dark purple doll #7 from the anime was, thus far with even less reason. But, oh, the section with Jun and the online doll clothing auction...! The root of his trauma has been one of my favorite parts of the storyline, and I'm happy to see it being dealt with in this way. I hadn't really expected Mi-chan to be a useful character in that regard, partially since they never met in the anime, I guess? But looking back, it was all there and I'm so glad it is. ^_^

I e-mailed Costume College last night inquiring if they'd like a couple of my costumes for display in the costume exhibit... and checked my mail this morning to find a response that, yes, they'd like Sophia and Rhapsody in Gold! I think the person I mailed was one of the people at WorldCon who told our group that we should teach a class on wingmaking. ^_^;; Maybe if I can ever tempt hoshikage to attend again, as I've only made wings once.... In any case, this means I need to remake Rhapsody's crown before then, since it got broken backstage.
