how long have you had your suit for exactly? :3

[zawolf]

I am guessing you mean Zae, the pink/purple lynx with rocket feet?

I think it was made sometime in 2008, I definitely had it for the 2008 EF. The head, hands and origianl feet were made at Spunky's house over one weekend. Fatkraken made the head, Loui made the feet, me and Spunky made the paws and helped the other two out with the easy stuff. The body was made by me and my mum another weekend.

The new 'rocket feet' I made myself, and were the second attempt. I also modified the body to make it slimmer, have a front zip and fit over those huge feet. Think that was all done in 2009?

And this year I experimented with sewing in electroluminescent wire, but made the suit kinda uncomfortable to wear and didn't look that great.

Planning on retiring the suit now and making a new one, but I lack motivation.

Have you always liked purple, and is there any special reason?

[zawolf]

I havent always liked it, and I think I can remember roughly when I did.

My mum bought an old purple fiesta for me and my sister to learn to drive in. At the time I can remember not being too fond on the colour. That car also gave me my first taste of driving, which I now love. I think that might have been one reason.

Can't remember too clearly, but think that was also around the time I came to the conclusion I am stuck as a guy but I wanted to be kinda feminine. At the time my 'favourite colour' was grey/black... which is just so bland. So I think I actively chose a new favourite colour based upon it being different and a bit feminine. I have always strived to be different to most, to make myself more interesting.

How ya doing, keeping, etc, etc, etc, I think we only really had one discussion ever but it was kinda nifty and whilst I do keep up with you zaguly in LJ world i've not really seen you about that often sorry.

So how are things?

My LJ is pretty much only used when I want to make long posts on twitter or organise events. Check my twitter for keeping up to date with me:

Life... well, the big stuff. I live in Bristol and work for an engineering company called Babcock. I hope to become a chartered mechanical engineer within the next year. I spend most of my disposable income on travelling weekends to see people, but my car isn't the most fuel efficient transport so having to cut back a bit. Oh, and I cut my hair significantly shorter recently.

Not sure what else to say... happy to answer specific questions though.

I thought I was following you on twitter as well >.>

Oh dear ^^ Ah it's good to hear you are doing well and I really hope your mechanical engineeringifying goes well
