“..But a real Black Nerd Problem is not knowing if your cosplay will get you killed. Or if a phaser equals wallet equals 41 empty shell casings later.”   -William Evans, ( williamevanswrites here on tumblr), writer of  "The Sobering Reality of Actual Black Nerd Problems“, a beautiful and NECESSARY written piece on the realities Black folk with nerdy interests face in today’s world.

My best friend purposefully-passionate and I cosplayed your dragons at DragonCon today! We love these bros.

AM I LOOKING INTO THE SUN BECAUSE EVERYTHING IS RADIANT ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

This is so so so cute looking! c: ♥ I love what you did to the shirts!! You translated the comic design so well into a costume, it’s so recognizable without being a copy! And the shoes are so fitting!! AND YOUR ADORABLE HORNS AAAH

Thank you very much! As a thank you take this picture of the bros cosplaying you for HumanCon! ∠( ᐛ 」∠)_♥
