The choir go to a convention

What are the cosplays and what do they do there?

Ricky convinced the rest of the choir to go to the convention u can't convince me he didn't, he also convinced them to cosplay

Ricky is absolutely going as the Goblin King from Labyrinth bc you can't tell me he loved that film, his outfit in the slime tut sabm screamed Bowie. He's easily got the best costume he's been preparing that costume for ages.

Noel had to be convinced to go in drag because he was nervous initially but they eventually got him to dress up. He finally dresses up as Lola, and kills the look, even making it look like he's in black and white. No one really knows who he is there but he's happy and that's what matters.

Mischa had no ideas for his cosplay. They spend a day at Ricky's going over ideas for him because Ricky insists they all dress up and he doesn't want Mischa to be left out. Eventually they settle on batman, which works out really well. Mischa elects himself as choir protector on the con trip and it turns out having an over 6ft scowling Ukrainian bad boy dressed as one of if not the most well known vigilante in media keeps creeps and potential bullies away really well.

Constance gets very excited to dress up, she convinces Ocean to do a group costume with her. They go as Wirt and Greg from Over the Garden Wall, with Ocean going as Wirt because everyone in the choir who watched that show pointed at Wirt and went "it's u", Constance went as Greg to match and also because she really likes his optimism. (She had got these costumes ages ago, her baby brother had a little frog costume to match her).

Penny is going as Wednesday Addams, a role suggested by Ricky like he did Mischa. She spends the entire time vanishing into the crowd and popping up behind the choir, she unintentionally scares quite a few other guests.

They stick together as well as they can do in a con and they have to take a lot of breaks because it is HOT in there and very crowded with stresses Penny out and is not good for Ricky's mobility issue. But despite that they have a great time!

Noel loves seeing all the costumes! Ricky spends a lot of time pointing out and listing ones he knows. The two spend a lot of time talking with others about making their costumes.

Ocean and Constance love seeing all the art stalls! They nearly spend so much money buying cute little things like pins and stickers.

Like Ocean and Constance, Mischa and Penny spend a lot of time near the stalls, except they buy goofy things, and gifts for the other choir members. They both nearly spend an obscene amount of money on a replica of the Jigsaw puppet from Saw. They talked each other out of it.

Eventually they get hungry but they are NOT paying that much for subpar food from the stands around the con so Constance gets everyone in her minivan and thats how the nearest McDonalds once had The Goblin King, Batman, Wirt, Wednesday Addams, a black and white Lola, all being driven by Greg from OTGW turn up in various states of dishevelment at like 10pm, and pick up an insane amount of food.

Then they all went back to Mischa's basement to compare photos and buys.
