omorkaJust got home from the Cthulhu LARP (much thanks to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
teegarden and perkyshai for putting it on, along with the rest of their staff). Had far more fun this year, and actually got to be semi-useful, at least for a couple of scenes.
One of the other LARPers was very close to a seven-eighths scale model ofbassfingers circa 1995. Similar hair and build, strikingly similar facial features, and a couple of the verbal mannerisms (including the tendency to repeat a word near the beginning of a sentence when slightly excitied or nervous). If he'd had a fedora, I'd've been worried! Didn't catch his name, unfortunately, but he sounded like he might be coming for the LARP at ApolloCon, so I might get to find out who he is there.
