Hello, this is Woot, your host for the continued coverage of WOOTCON '07. I have with me here today the lovely winner of this year's costume contest: Rebecca Thomas dressed as Lina Inverse of Slayers. Mind if I ask you a few questions for our viewers?
REBECCA: Go right ahead :) And call me Becky.
WOOT: Alrighty. This is hardly your first win at a national level event like WOOTCON. What's your secret to success?
BECKY: I'd definitely say strong traditional sewing skills. Since I can't exactly walk into a store and buy a blouse off the rack, I've been sewing for years now. Creating costumes was the next logical step. I love nailing the details that really make an outfit come alive.
WOOT: You mentioned your unique physique. Your figure would send Naga into a jealous rage. So why choose Lina?
BECKY: (laughs) Have you seen what Naga wears? That's showing a little too much skin for me. I like to have the costume take center stage, not my body itself. But really, I like Lina. She's a powerful sorceress with a vulnerable side. She's kind of sensitive about her bust. I can sort of relate to that.
WOOT: Undoubtedly. Well thank-you for taking the time to chat with us Becky. Congratulations on your $2,000 grand prize, and a year's supply of Pocky.
BECKY: It's been a pleasure. All that junk food is going to wreak havoc on my bustline though :)
WOOT: Here's hoping! (receives a playful punch on the arm)
All I can say is about time Lina got some love and congratulations on not just going on the obvious choice of Naga that earned some points on this picture.
