Starting off the Saturday comic con session with Mia, Abbie, & Chrissy.

It was around 7:00am on a Saturday morning, when you felt and heard "Neko-Sana" scramble to awake, and put on her dress, so that she could head to her own room, shower, and get ready for her cosplay as Ara from "Jirni". You kinda expected that, but you also know that you have an early start yourself. You also hit the shower, put on some fresh clothes after you dry off, and then grab your gear. A full breakfast follows down at the floor of the hotel, and then you're off to the convention center. As you walk down the street, you check your text messages on the smart phone, and when you find a chance at the crosswalk, you fire a social media message to Mia, letting her know that you're en route to the convention.

Fortunately for you, you didn't have to wait too long, given that the Saturday convention starts at 9:00am. While the regular attendees rush off to the tables and booths, to meet their favorite comic writers and artists, you wait calmly in a plaza outside the convention center. Then you hear your phone vibrate, and you check the incoming message.

"We see you across the plaza, Alex." Mia texts to you. "We're on our way."

Turning, you see the trio of cosplayers/exotic dancers based at "The Silken Web", en route to your location. All three women are carrying their purses slung over their shoulders, and towing their luggage that holds their day's provisions, spare costume parts and repair kits, and other things. You see Mia's brother, Benny, and Abbie's own brother, Brent, with them--two assisting siblings that were hauling a crate containing their cosplay prints and other things to sell later inside. The three women themselves look fantastic to your eyes, "dressed for battle" as a trio of "Executive Assistant" characters from the corresponding comic series.

As Iris, Mia has tied her hair back, and locked it in place with four large hair pins that she carefully crafted to mimic the ones found in the comic book. Her black leather bodysuit is pretty tight around her frame, but comfortable enough for her. You can see her worksmanship in sewing in the silver trims to further mimic the character, the flat boots on her feet that best match the cosplay, and the shoulder straps that hold two of her sword props, and the belt that has holsters to hold her pistol props.

As Lilly, Abbie has donned a green wig of shoulder-length hair, a pair of red-tinted sunglasses, and a bodysuit similar to Mia's own. The difference was the color, in which Abbie's bodysuit was predominantly a dark blue, with sky blue trimming, and a lilly flower patch on the suit, over her right breast. Abbie has also opted for flat boots, but hers were a pair of dark blue Doc Martens that went up to cover most of her shins, ending just below the stitched-in kneepads. Her belt has an Uzi gun prop for her to grab with her main hand, and foam ninja star props for her off-hand.

As Rose, Chrissy's costume is the most revealing of the three. It's a three-piece outfit, instead of one full bodysuit. She has a pair of black leather pants on, with knee-high boots to match the black color, and has low, broad heels. The top piece is like a full black leather jerkin or coat that has been cut off, leaving only the sleeves, and the shoulder & neck parts. A red leather corset, with rosy engravings covers most of her torso, leaving a good cleavage and her belly button exposed. Lines of artificial red roses have been sewn onto the sleeved and the sides of the pants. A black leather belt has a chrome buckle, with a red rose engraving at the center. A pair of sai props have been slid in a way that her leather belt can hold them on her hips, when she's not using them. Finally, she has donned a wig of short, dark hair, with red streaks.

So the three ladies hug you, asking you how your night was. You tell them that your night went well, but didn't mention the sexual activity you had with "Neko-Sana". Then the photo shooting was on, starting with individual poses for each cosplayer, then group photos. You even have them do a mock battle, in the spirit of the comics. After a series of photo shoots, where they do battle poses, you direct Chrissy to do a takedown pose on Abbie, then have Mia do the same on Chrissy. So Chrissy does a couple of poses, where she "guts" Abbie with one sai prop, then "scores the killshot" with a "stab" on Abbie's heart. After you take one photo of Chrissy standing over her kill, you have Mia "gut" Chrissy with her sword prop. Your final photos of the session, is of Mia standing over her kill, then of her scooping up Abbie. With all of those photos taken, you let the ladies dust off, then review the photos with them.

"That is so awesome, Alex!" Mia tells you. "You should share them with the comics staff, when you make all the necessary retouches and edits. I think they'll go bonkers."

"Of all the cosplay poses I've done," Abbie tells you next, "I've never done a pose where I'm playing dead."

"I'm pleased that I've broken the ice with this cosplay." Chrissy tells you after. "It took me so long to sew in those artificial roses, to really mimic the character."
