	I know I won't be going to the con, but there is a very good chance I can come in just for the meet-up. Will you be posting a final "RSVP" post or have I missed it? wibbles (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Hi! No worries, I'm just putting together a list of folks we know will be there, so anyone who still needs to RSVP can! You are on the list! can't wait to meet you. :) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	accioslash 2008-07-12 09:06 am UTC (link)
	Yay! I can't wait to meet you as well. ;D I'll need to RSVP for two because I always drag my husband with me to the Snarry meet-ups. He's such a good sport. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dracofiend 2008-07-12 09:09 am UTC (link)
	Fantastic, thanks for letting me know! :D Now I will see if my husband will also want to go! :D Should I put him on the list as "Mr. Accioslash"? The list will be alphabetic, just fyi. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Should I put him on the list as "Mr. Accioslash"?

He'll answer to that. ;D But he's been known as "The Al" or just "Al" at the other meet-ups, so either will be fine.

For not being what I would consider an actual Snarry fan, he always has a good time at the meet-ups. He's familiar with a lot of the names of people and some of their work. Once, when I had broken both arms and couldn't use the computer, he even read the last chapter of a very NC-17 fic by [Bad username: dementordelta"] and

snapetoy out loud for me. I knew it was true love at that point. ;D

You should see if your husband is willing to go. I love being able to talk about teh Snarry with Al and it's so much more interesting when you have a face to go with a name.

	Oh yes it is! BTW I have not forgotten your art. I will bring it to Terminus/Chicago. I will be around for two weeks, I am sure we will find time to meet up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	accioslash 2008-07-12 11:03 am UTC (link)
	Perfect! I figured you didn't forget and would get to it when you had time. I'll be in Chicago Friday night for sure and at least part of Saturday if not the whole day. I'm having a great deal of trouble with exhaustion and dizziness so I'll be mostly playing it by ear, but I'll be looking for you at the meet-up. ;D (Reply to this) (Parent)
