Okay okay okay so I need to talk about m&g with P!ATD cuz holy shit holy shit holy shit

So while waiting for the passes to get into m&g, I met up with an internet friend who was so nice & also had m&g. We got our passes and went to another line to stand for awhile.

While there, a van pulled down from the venue. (There was a hill that made you want to die) I was watching it, just cuz there was nothing really to look at, and saw people start to get out. The first person I recognized was (I think, I'm not 100% she was there last night) was Sara. That had me thinking "holy shit, if that's Sara, then Brendon can't be fa-holy shit there he is.

LIKE I SHIT YOU NOT HE HAD A HAT AND SHIT TRYING TO BE ALL DISCRET AND NO ONE SAW HIM AT FIRST. HE WAS WALKING AROUND THE VAN AND EVERYTHING AMD IT WAS IN THAT MOMENT THAT I HAD THE "HOLY SHIT, HE'S REAL" THOUGHT.

Okay okay okay- so it didn't last long, cuz people started to recognize him and he was fucking gone. He was like a fucking ninja or some shit, he just vanished.

So, awhile later, we got to go up the death hill and we were waiting in a cluster on the side of the stage ((which was the Santa Barbara bowl IT WAS SICK AS FRICK)). Zack came out, laid out the rules, and then separates us into three lines for some reason, I couldn't hear him. Somehow, though, MY LINE GOT TO GO UP FIRST ehehe.

So, we're waiting and the anxiety is building and slowly creeping closer and closer. Soon, I can see Dan on the edge with Dallon right next to him. I'm getting so freaking excited and my friend (who was in front of me) was getting anxious for her pose. We went over some, but she went for her default squad pose.

Then it was me.

Zack waved me up and I felt the panic with the disco just in sight. I walked up, but Dan was kinda jamming to the music playing and didn't really notice me at first. When he realized I was there, he smiled and stuck out his hand to shake. ((Okay, fun fact about me, I do this tiny wave thing when I'm saying hi or introducing I guess?)) I said hi and he said hi. Then I went up to Dallon.

Okay, so let me tell you a thing that I will never ever get over. DALLON WEEKES IS SO FUCKING TALL LIKE, HOLY SHIT. I AM NEVER GOING TO BE OVER IT. I COULDN'T SHUT UP ABOUT IT FOR HOURS.

Anyway, Dallon is very pretty and tall. Then there was Brendon. That man is so sweet and barely taller than me and pretty; he's very pretty in person, photos do no justice for that man. He smiled so :)) and was like "hi! How are you?"

Unfortunately, I was rushing and already shaking Kenny's hand (who is also extremely nice and sweet) so I was kinda "hi-im goo-hi"

The whole time with the lil wave before the handshake. I really wish we were allowed to hug, but Zack said no. I understand not wanting to hug a bunch of sweaty strangers for almost an hour, but I was still so happy to even talk to them.

So I got through the hellos and I reached into my pockets and pulled out finger tentacles for my photo. As soon as Brendon saw them, he kinda laughed, leaning back with an "awesome!" Kenny looked pretty amused too, hehe

But I held out the tentacles and Brendon took one and slid it on his finger. "Alright! What we doin'? Am I holding one and you holding one? How does this go on? **wiggles finger with tentacle on it**" All this while he's playing with the one tentacle like a kid it was hilarious. I gave him the other tentacle and told him that I just kinda wanted everyone to look freaked out.

I don't even know if Dallon and Dan heard me cuz I was kinda facing Brendon and Kenny and I talk kinda quiet but when I'm nervous I'm not good at maintaining a calm voice level sooooo...

We took the photo really quick and Brendon gave me my tentacles back and I smiled and they all smiled back and I waved and Brendon was like "it was cool to meet you." And they all said bye and I went around the booth to get my poster.
