Jteh – It was SO amazing to finally meet my 2007 Scavenger Hunt rival! I am blown away by how awesome it was that you got to meet one of your ‘biggest fans’ and I loved gushing over ships/OTPs with you!!! Also, thank you for the educational/hilarious definition of what “dumpy” means loooool. Thank you for being the BEST moscato/sangria sharing partner and for being wonderful!!

Mathieu – Comme je t’ai prévenu, tu étais bel et bien la plus jolie fille à AN !!!!!! Your cosplay was E V E R Y T H I N G and I am so honored to be able to say I got to hug and stand beside you as the beautiful CC. I can’t wait to come to Quebec someday and spend time with the rest of you and the rest of Team QC !!

Max – My dearest Trawn-Skunk!!! SO GLAD your first AN experience was such a success <3 Thank you for gettin’up early and heading to the con with me on Saturday, for rocking dat skunk cosplay like a complete & utter CHAMP and for being generally amazing as always.

Mayo – Hello lady!!! Glad our love has been immortalized in the group photo and that I got to spend so much time with ya at your first AN the Vancouver crew definitely rocked it. Thanks for always being on the lookout for SE cosplays for me and for enjoying copious amounts of wine time <3 Me-wow you are swell !!!

Pete – My darling Pete, thank you for making AN as amazing as ever with your kindness, your greg-destined sass and your lovely friendship. Your Contact skills were awesome, and thank you for making eye contact with me for pretty much every ‘Gay Sex’ joke that came our way Saturday & Sunday. PS – YOUR DRIVING IS GREAT, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. On that topic, thanks for the drive, the Tim Hortons cone-moving escapades, and the educational convos on the way to Wonderland, I can’t wait to see you again when I come visit sometime soon Thank you for tolerating the 'fic' and all of my other girly squeals. Much love Petey-poo!!

Sanz – Your cosplay was AMAZING, as always, and it was lovely to have lunch and chat for a little bit with you this year!!! Great seeing you again!

Sven – Thank you so much for the jumping-lots hug and for the general amazingness that you always bring to AN!!! And thanks for making this year’s beer-chug one for the history books :P

Theodore “Dumpy” Gregory-chan – As usual, AN was full of outrageous inside jokes, memories and even more reasons for why you are just the best! In my humble opinion, the pillow fort will go down in history as AN’s best surprise. Thank you for accompanying me to the Free! aka Life-saving Chapstick panel, for educating me on what a Twindle/Twinkie/Twiddley/Twinzle is (I really do know how to pronounce it now!!!), for immediately thinking of ‘Liz’ as a compliment to ‘Patty’ in Contact, and for the mutual dunking in Resistance/TWG over the weekend! Even though you will never smile in a picture with me ever, I’m so happy to have been able to spend another AN with ya!

Tiffany – I am soooooooooooo glad I finally got to meet you, lovely girl!!! From naming all of our ‘vanilla’ items at the dinner table to questionable drink mixing (how about that 50% vodka orange juice eh???) to our post-Werewolf chatz and snuggles and everything in between, you are an utter star and I am honored to have spent the weekend with you

Trevor – Thanks for being an honorary gril this weekend, your gril-like presence was much appreciated in our sea of estrogen :P Was awesome getting to experience AN with you a second time, and I look forward to the Spirit cosplay that I will hold you to doing for the rest of your life :P

Trixie – Had SUCH a great time hanging out & playing Kings with you on Thursday/Saturday nights; was thrilled to be a part of Noise Complaint 2015! :P Great time at Wonderland on Sunday too, shoutouts to you, Vickie & Brandon for being there and dying laughing at the Danceguy/Funnygurl ‘let’s ride this again’ confusion :P Hope to hang out with you again next year!!

Vince – Ur dumb. Nah jk, was great to see you as always and I thoroughly enjoyed yo ears! Miss ya kiddo, message me about your cat more often pls.

Sending love to the people I spent time with last year or this year but didn’t get to talk to very much because time : Bobby, Lurker, Luis, Stian, Tomas, G-D and I’m suuuuure there are people I’ve forgotten.
