I recently wore my Sky cosplay to a convention. Even though only a few people recognized it, a mother and her daughter stood out to me. The daughter was obviously the one who wanted to come to the event, hopping from person to person, and requesting photographs with all the fantastic characters she encountered. When the mother spotted me, she asked her daughter to take a photograph of us together. We talked for a while and she said she loves the game and didn't expect to recognise any characters at the convention.
She was so cute and so happy, and even though she could've been my own mother age-wise, it did not matter in that moment! It made me think about the people behind the player characters. You truly do not know who they are, but everyone is taking to the skies in an effort to have a good time. It’s honestly heart-warming to know I will receive kindness from a stranger in the world of Sky.
