&lt;p&gt;Jenna’s long brown hair was pulled into a tight ponytail that fell down just past her shoulders as she walked the floor of San Diego Comic Con.
This was her third year in attendance and as it was the second day of the convention she had already purchased all of her memorabilia and taken it back to her friend’s house before coming in for a day of panels and talking to other con goers.
… well that and enjoying the people watching her walk by them and complimenting her on her cosplay.
Last year she and a group of friends had spent the weekend dressed up as the Fantastic Four, but this year she was rolling solo as a classic. Lara Croft.
Her heavy black boots clicked against the tiled ground as she walked towards the main show floor. She could practically feel the gaze of many male con-goers watching her green, booty short covered behind sway past them.
Her navel was exposed due to the short top that hugged her curvy torso, leaving little to the imagination to what the green and gray fabric was covering.
Two seperate holsters were buckled around each of her thighs that held replica pistols inside and several other little things were attached to her via other buckles and straps.
The con was still setting up for its second day as the brunette entered the floor, watching as several booths were removing set pieces from the day prior and replacing them with newer items that would draw people back to view their products a second time.
She admired the new look of one of the several Marvel booths - a large glass case holding costumes had replaced the previous day’s signing table.
The thrift shop comic’s booth called to her and she spent the next several minutes chatting with one of the workers - a man probably just a little younger than her - about various items while things moved around them.
When she finally left the booth - after promising to come back towards the end of the day to purchase something on her way out - she was pulled to the side by another man, this one clearly being older than her.
Jenna nearly rounded on him for grabbing her, until she realized he had pulled her into the heart of the Square Enix booth.
She had spent a good portion of her stay yesterday browsing the various item, displays, and other things this booth had to offer yesterday when she was not dressed up, but now it felt a little surreal.
“Yes! Claire! I found someone who would be perfect for the job. Please come over quickly!” the man called back behind the counter before turning back to face her.
“Oh, pardon me. My name is Hank. I am part of the events team at Square. I apologize for pulling you in here so suddenly, but my associate Claire will fill you in on why I did so. Talk to you later!”
The now introduced Hank spoke at about a mile per minute and before she could even say “It’s fine” he dashed off behind the staff curtains and was replaced by a similarly aged woman with short blonde hair.
“Wow, he was right. You fit the bill perfectly. What is your name dear? Mine of course is Claire.”
Jenna took the extended hand with a tight smile.
“My name is Jenna. Do you mind explaining to me why you brought me here? Oh! Not that I don’t want to be here… but…”&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Amaris Adara</title><link>/stories/2017/07/31/amaris-adara/</link><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jul 2017 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2017/07/31/amaris-adara/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;I love Comic Con. There I said it and I’m not afraid to admit to anyone who will listen. It has to be the single best time of the year. It’s when those of us obsessed with comics, sci-fi and fantasy can come together to share in our love of all the above. I never missed a year though maybe I should have this time, depending on who you ask.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
