As you all might know, Cangel and I went to a fantasy festival/fair thingy yesterday, and there were a whole bunch of people in funky costumes, LARPers, all kinds of little shops in tents, and James Marsters. We spend a whole bunch of money for a picture and an autograph, but he was amazing. He was seriously nice and polite, like, he really tried to say something personal to all the people who came for an autograph and stuff. His eyes are REALLY that blue, his smile is REALLY that cheeky. His hands are very soft. Also, he was totally HOT (sw)
And he said I have a nice smile. Me, having a serious case of dancing intestines, couldn't say anything but "hmmmngph". But he insisted and I managed to say something along the lines of Thank you, have a nice day. To Cangel, who got her calendar signed, he told a nice Buffy fun fact, about the scene where he was being tortured by the First, up on that cross (which really didn't hurt all that much). He said that then, finally, after 7 years, he had Sarah (who is really nice) wrapped around his finger. Because when he was finally up there, she *suddenly* had to go to the bathroom and stayed away for 20 minutes or so, while he was hanging there the whole time.
Ah, it was all over so quickly. But luckily, we have got the pictures to prove it!
And then some pictures to get a nice idea of the whole place there:
The really nice merchandise lady:
Just some people waiting for their chance to get a photo with JM:
Cangel with the castle (and some green stuff):
Yours truly with a bit of castle:
Another bit of castle (The VIP tents were in the courtyard, but the whole fair was everywhere around the castle and in the gardens. There seriously couldn't be a better place in the Netherlands for a fantasy fair):
A lone fairy:
Something green:
And the prize for best costume goes to...
Look! It's James! In a tent!
Some more fancy costumes;
A stormtrooper! It's not James, but still, pretty damn cool
Anyway, right now I'm still a bit unable to give a detailed, chronological account of what all happened. Bottom line is, anyway, I met my first actual celebrity, I met my first Buffyverse person, I met my favourite Buffyverse person and I've really helped my six degrees of separation thing all in one go!
