Cosplay photos from MAGFest! Wish I had taken more of these to be honest, cause there were so, so many great cosplays at the con!
A “Master Chef” cosplayer- someone cosplaying Master Chief from the Halo video game franchise, but with chef paraphernalia such as a chef’s hat, apron and spatula. A grey-and-light-blue nargacuga fursuiter. Someone cosplaying the viral “Sickos” meme, complete with window, shirt and speech bubble. A “sign guy” from Tears of the Kingdom cosplay, complete with sign. A Pomni cosplayer walks by in the background.

Now time for the "G" part of MAGFest- games! These are photos of just a few of the gaming areas in the con; unsurprisingly games were quite ubiquitous here!
A photo of MAGFest’s “LAN Room”, a blue-carpeted ballroom containing many computers, some provided by the con itself (on the right of the picture) and some brought along by congoers themselves. A picture taken in the middle of MAGFest’s arcade room, a dimly-lit room containing a large array of arcade cabinets. Prominent in the picture is a large “Densha de Go!” arcade machine, simulating the driver’s cabin of a Japanese passenger train Another picture taken in MAGFest’s arcade room, this time amidst a row of pinball tables A display case in MAGFest’s Museum room, showcasing devkits for various game consoles, such as a large PS2 and red and teal-colored Gamecubes

The "M" in MAGFest stands for "Music", so here's photos from some of the musical performances I attended at the con this year, from acts on the main stage to impromptu hallway jams!
The band dannybstyle on the main stage of MAGFest, playing a song from the game “Rift of the Necrodancer”, footage of which is playing on the screen behind the band. (Danny Baranowsky, the drummer of dannybstyle, composed the music for Rift of the Necrodancer.) Johnny Gioeli and other members of the band Crush 40 on the main stage of MAGFest, with footage of the game “Sonic Adventure 2” (which Crush 40 composed music for) playing on the screen behind the band. A large congregation of musicians, with a multitude of instruments, play to a crowd in a hallway in the Gaylord National Another large congregation of musicians (including a couple of fursuiters) playing to a crowd in a lobby-esque area in the Gaylord National

Gonna be uploading a bunch of photos from my time at Magfest over the course of the week, starting with some "establishing shots" of the Gaylord National, the con's venue! Including a shot from late Friday night which got super foggy and thus super spooky 👻
The very large atrium of MAGFest’s convention center, The Gaylord National, with congoers filling up both the upper level lounge and the lower floor further in the background. Hotel room balconies overlook the spacious atrium on the left and right sides of the photo, bracketing a giant glass wall on that makes up the northwest facade of the con center, which looks out into the Chesapeake Bay. Another photo of the Gaylord National’s atrium, this time taken in the evening. The sky has turned a darker shade of blue (but has not fully turned to night yet), and the white interior walls of the Gaylord has turned a pale shade of golden yellow as they are illuminated by numerous lights, including various lit-up hotel rooms and a screen of twinkling LED “stars” overlaid on the northwest glass facade. A photo of the Gaylord National’s atrium at night; this picture is looking away from the northwest facade, showing multiple floors of hotel room balconies, a few of which are lit up in different colors. A small portion of the atrium’s glass ceiling can be seen in the top of the picture. A photo of the Gaylord National bathed in fog in the dead of night, as seen from its south

I saw this sticker on a car in front of me this morning and at first I thought it said "I can't keep up like this" 😭
a circular pink sticker with a white cartoon cat (Marie from the disney film "The Aristocats"), with text above the cat that actually says "I woke up like this"

finally beat silksong 🙌🙌 🙌

good thing too, that last boss was frustrating me so much that I may have just dropped the game if I couldn't overcome it by the end of this week. (tho tbh I was slowly but surely getting better at the fight)

still, a great game that I'm glad I saw through to the end 👍

And one more set of pics! This was such a fun night; Magdalena Bay has some extremely funky songs in their catalog so I was dancing throughout! And when I got home I was so exhausted that I slept for 9 hours lol

Saw Magdalena Bay in concert on Saturday, and it was spectacular! Everything was on point- not just the music but also the set, costuming and art direction in general. Crowd was great too!

Just a final couple of photos from my time at AC this year- the 1st was taken at a fireworks watch party on the roof of the con center, and the 2nd at Sunday night's big dance. Both were life-affirming moments for me, just hanging out and having a blast amongst fellow animal people ❤️

#anthrocon25
A set of three red fireworks exploding in the sky above Pittsburgh, as seen from the roof of the David L. Lawrence Convention Center, amongst a group of fursuiters and other furries. Photo was taken while I was standing behind a suiter, so these particular fireworks are neatly framed by the ears of a fursuit head. Fursuiters and other attendees at Anthrocon’s Sunday night dance are silhouetted by the lights of the stage in front of them. A couple of balloons fly above the crowd and a large trans flag is being waved by an attendee in the crowd

And here are a few more! If I recall correctly, the weather was fairly fursuit-friendly this year- no rain and temps weren't super high

A black/purple crow fursuiter and a pink/blue cat fursuiter, both dressed as jesters A black and gold robotic fox fursuiter, with silver teeth/claws and red illuminated eyes A red wolf fursuiter A gray/white/red/brown/black gryphon fursuiter

and zooming out a bit, there were a bunch of different objects available to be stickered! I hope this trend continues with future cons; I may have to think of something to bring myself!

At this point furry cons and sticker walls go together like a cold winter's night and hot cocoa; here's a sampling from AC, along with a couple of my faves!

#anthrocon25
A collection of stickers up upon a wall of cardboard, many featuring fursonas and jokes A larger collection of stickers on a wall of cardboard Amongst other stickers, a sticker of the “Loss” meme comic, except the protagonist of the comic is replaced by someone’s fursona A sticker in the style of a Yu-Gi-Oh! card, titled “Rightleg of Miah” and featuring the right leg of someone’s fursona

One of my favorite aspects of this con is the riverfront plaza just below the convention center, which becomes one giant furry hangout space each night of the con. The vibes were immaculate here 💖

#anthrocon25
A riverfront plaza at night, bustling with people, as seen from the roof of the David L Lawrence Convention Center (DLCC). In the background is a yellow bridge, with lights reflecting in the water below. A closer shot of the waterfront plaza at night near the DLCC. A speedboat is passing by the crowd. A game of chess being played on a bench at the waterfront; fursuit parts are sitting nearby the chessboard. Fursuiters and other AC attendees hanging out at the waterfront in the early evening, as the sun begins to set.

The "memory" that I submitted to the website in the quoted post, in answer to the prompt "Describe how Undertale impacted you." My answer, and this image, reads as follows: "The humour and "combat" drew me in, but the heartfelt story and amazing soundtrack are what really stuck with me. I still tear up a little whenever I hear "Home"." Next this blurb is a picture of Napstablook, a character in Undertale that resembles a ghost. Under the blurb is my name, "PJ".
