PyroPuncher, OMGChad & Arkas (again)

Where: Minecon 2015, London, Mindcrack Booth

When: Minecon Day 2, 05/07/2015 @ 12:25pm

These 3 were all on the same table. I walked up to Chad and he greeted me with a very enthusiastic “Heyyyyy!” This made me instantly relax and I tried to meet his enthusiasm when I responded with “Hello!” I had placed my signing card on the table and he was busy scribbling away whilst he asked me how my day has been. I replied with, “It just got better- how about you?”. I have learnt that Chad likes to elongate his words - he responded with “Gooooood!”. By now, Chad had passed my card onto Pyro and was looking at me with sincere interest. I held out my hand, offering the letter to him. “I’ve got something for you-“ I started, and Pyro interrupted with “Is it a cheque for $100,000?” We all laughed and I sarcastically asked how he knew. Everyone laughed again. I then went on to tell them that, “Baj had asked the same thing”. Pyro told me that it was a “Baj joke” and I just laughed. By now, Arkas had the signing card. I handed Pyro the letter with a smile and he smiled back. I looked to Arkas and said that “I gave (him his) letter yesterday” and he told me that he had it stored away in a safe place and had told someone to look after it for him. I was blown away by his kindness and was at loss for words. I dramatically touched my chest as if displaying emotions similar to a swoon. I then asked them if I could get a picture and they were all so for it! I had made friends with an American woman behind me in line and asked her to take it. Chad instructed me to come over to behind the table. I passed by Jasmine (at least I think it was Jasmine! I said “Hi Jas!” and she responded with a ‘hi’. I’m still unsure whether or not it was her) and moved over to behind the guys. They all moved apart, making space for me and I had 2 options for where to put myself (either between Arkas and Pyro or between Pyro and Chad). I decided to go between Chad and Pyro because I had given Arkas 2 hugs the previous day and didn’t want to look like a stalker. They pulled me into their arms and wrapped them tight around me. Pyro hummed out a “cheeeeese” and Chad squeezed my arm. When the picture was taken, Pyro gave my other arm another squeeze and looked up to me and smiled. I almost squealed out with glee but instead decided to casually brush it off with a “thanks guys!”. Arkas then moved my card onto Millbee.
