Dinosaur Costume: The Time Traveler's Princess

Oh, I was going to wait until after graduation to post this, but can't help myself.

This took Best in Show at Marcon 44, as well as Audience Choice. I'm still all flustered and flattered, I never thought I'd get such honors at Journeyman level (and now, I'm Master class O.o). Seriously, you guys made my con.

So, I suppose the first thing I need to say here is thanks to the judges, the audience (OMG, the cheering!), and the green room/behind the scenes staff at the Masquerade. They were very accommodating and kind to me, even when I could only stay in costume for short periods of time. One gal in particular saved my skin, the poor gal who got stuck helping me with the ramp. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Also, I need to thank My Parents (My dad is the time traveler), my sister, as well as Rachel, Stephan, and Brynn, for keeping me motivated.

Guys, it was an honor and a privilege to compete with you all. Katrina, I look forward to seeing you next year-- I can't wait to see what you'll do!

Script:

SFX: time travel (form Dinosaur at Disney's Animal Kingdom)

TT: Woah, hey, is this thing on? Oh, hello! I'm sorry to interrupt the masquerade--this IS the masquerade, isn't it? But, you see, I've just returned, from the past! Hold on a minute. *pause* This is my newest invention, the Time Gauntlet, and it's allowing me to travel the space-time continuum. You see, I've been searching for my princess, but I just couldn't find her-- I got tired of waiting for the right time, so I journeyed through the ages to find her. And, I've finally succeeded! So, now, I'd like to introduce: my princess!

TT: Oh, ahah, she's kinda shy. *whistles* Come on, princess, come here girl!

Princess walks onstage

TT: Princess here is, as you may have guessed, a tyrannosaurus. She's merely a juvenile, as is indicated by both her small size, as well as the ruff of insulating protofeathers along her back. However, in spite of being a predator, she's actually quite friendly, aren't you, princess?

Princess: *Roars*

TT: That's my girl!

SFX: Alarm beep

TT: Uh-oh! Looks like it's time to get going. Sorry for interrupting the Masquerade, folks. Come on, Princess. No, no, not that way, the ramp, Princess, the ramp. That's good, yes, good girl!
