i did! if you did, what did you think of it? did you go in cosplay?

honestly, i thought it was kind of disappointing sadly :[ got in line almost an hour before 10am (when it opened) and the line was so long they sold out of all homestuck macarons and almost all merch by the time me and my bf even got anywhere close to the entrance of the place. really sad. but we're preordering merch off the shop so it's ok. i went mostly for the merch anyways. we were waiting in line for almost 4 hours though it was kind of insane. our feet were burning. never thought i should have gone at like 7am to get into an event that started at 10am.
pros? saw lots of fun homestuck cosplays. took pics with people. saw maybe only two other solluxes other than me though which was CRAZY since there were hundreds of people. lots of karkats. lots of nepetas bc ofc there are /pos LOL
official homestuck events in california these past two years have been a little underwhelming? i think they all keep underestimating the sheer amount of people still into homestuck/travel to the event/are willing to spend a shit ton of money on their merch because they all sell out of stuff SO QUICKLY!!!! like yeah you hold an event for historically one of the biggest fandoms of all time and are surprised a lot of ppl come.... i love the requiem cafe too but it's felt so off lately.
i think we need a new homestuck con. like genuinely
