The name's Lauren, but you can call me Troppy. Some people call me "Yuna" or "Mrs. Malfoy." Thse are also acceptable, but I might look at you funny. ;p

I've been cosplaying since the beginning of high school, but have slowed down IMMENSELY through my college years. Thus, my stuff has not improved as much as I would like, but to me it's all about performing and having fun, anyway.

I am 22 years old, and graduated from a University with a major in Electronic Media and minors in Theatre and Literature. LEGO owns me every day from 9-5, so appreciate your multicolored bricks and think of me! I'll soon be moving in with cosplayer Ashiri-chan (among others), so let the games begin!

I am terribly affectionate and also terribly caustic, so you're going to feel mad love and unbearable irritation at the same time if you come anywhere near me. I think I'm pretty cool after all is said and done, so you should probably talk to me straight-up instead of just staring at this profile.

Please contact me! I most assuredly want a picture with you!! :-P

Poor hygiene, spreading rumors, Courage the Cowardly Dog, egg salad, E.T. the Extra Terrestrial

Intelligence, longish hair, music, respect for cosplay
