A Funny Moment at the Convention

At Phoenix Comic Con last weekend a boy named Ethan became a fixture at the booth after he put on a 'live yaoi show' where he kissed a very handsome Cloud cosplayer for a gaggle of screaming girls.

After this brought him instant adulation he returned to do it two more times, then generally hung out at the booth with his group of friends.

Two girls who had missed one of his performances were trying to coax him into kissing this small adorable Asian boy who he was snuggling on his lap. Ethan didn't want to perform without a larger crowd, but he told the girls if they did a 'yuri show' (girl/girl kiss) he would kiss him.

One of the girls got a frightened look on her face, so I jumped in and said for him not to suggest this to such young girls (they looked between 13 and 15) because this might be a 'first kiss' for one of them. One of the girls laughed about this and said she'd check back later.

After she left the girl who had seemed frightened looked at me somewhat annoyed.

"Well this *would* have been my first kiss, if you hadn't interfered."
