Comic Con day 1
Comic con was 4 days of Twilight! Penny and Ally tried there best to get people interested in the new comic but despite a few die hard Marvel fans everyone seemed to be interested in one thing. Twilight!
'This is unbelievable' moaned Penny back at the girls hotel room later on that night. 'We stood around in latex to be uncomfortable, sweaty and practically ignored!' Penny flopped down on the bed and closed her eyes already looking forward to the refreshing cocktail she was going to order at dinner.
'Lets just keep focused on the money, we only have three days left then were outta here' Ally reassured Penny. 'Besides we weren't practically ignored, Leonard definitely noticed you'
'Yeah and every other girl that had a tight costume on.' Penny wailed as she headed to the bathroom for her turn in the shower.
'Penny, you know he likes you, lets just get changed and meet the boys for dinner so we can try to pretend today didn't happen and hope tomorrows better.' Ally called through the closed door.
Earlier that day….
'Hey guys' Penny called across the crowd motioning them to come over.
'My my, don't we look enchanting' Howard drawled taking Penny's hand in his.
'Um I think the term your looking for is don't we look practically naked!' Ally shot back. The costumes that were given consisted of a few well placed bits of Latex, knee high boots (thigh high in Penny's case) and small masks that only covered their eyes.
'At least you have more on than some people...' Leonard trailed off as a woman wearing a thong and bra sauntered past.
'I don't know what that costume is from but I am going to find out' Howard muttered to Raj as they all turned to watch the woman until she was out of sight.
'We look like prostitutes and you know it' Penny said aloud. Howard and Raj had zoned her out as they caught sight of a group of girls dressed like Princess Leia.
'Are you listening or staring at girls in gold bikinis'
'Um, listening listening.' Howard replied without taking his eyes off the girls. 'So tell us about your character?' Leonard prompted
'Well she's a superhero but it's set in the fut… ' Penny began
'Great costume' Howard called to a passing woman dressed as Seven of Nine.
'So it's set in the future?' Howard asked aware that Penny was becoming more and more annoyed. 'Just go' she said and with little more encouragement Raj and Howard headed into the throng of people.
'Here' Ally said handing both Sheldon and Leonard a free sample copy of the Comic 'have fun and we'll see you later'.
'If you want we could hang around a bit more?' Leonard asked Penny
'Leonard, we have to stick to the schedule if we are going to see everything' Sheldon admonished
'Fine. Bye Penny I'll see you at dinner right?'
'Right see you then.'
Later at Dinner…
The girls were showered and changed and ordering drinks at the hotel bar by 6.30pm when Howard and Raj arrived looking flustered.
'You have to hide us' Howard tried to quickly explain 'these Twilight fans are crazy.' Raj as usual was silent but was nodding his head in agreement.
'Why, what did you do?' Penny questioned
'Nothing, Penny I am like a god here the ladies can't get enough of me. Also, Raj told some people that he saw the guy who plays Edward near the cafeteria area so that we could get to the front of a queue, man they weren't pleased when they got back.'
Ally began laughing as behind Howard Raj was shaking his head and pointing at him 'don't worry about it. Did you get to see the panel you wanted?' Ally asked
'Yes the Futurama one. I even got to ask Matt Groening what engineering research they had done when designing the spaceship, it turns out none, but I think we had a connection.' Howard explained whilst still checking over his shoulder every few seconds for more angry Twilight fans.
Penny decided it would be safer if they all sat in a booth, so Howard and Raj could duck if need be, and 20 minutes later at 7pm on the dot that is where Sheldon and Leonard found them.
'you guys look like your having fun' Leonard commented before sitting down next to Penny.
'Howard was just telling us about when you guys were here last year' Ally explained
'oh' Leonard said beginning to look worried 'what did you tell them?'
'nothing.' Howard said with a smirk while Penny and Ally broke into hysterical laughter again.
'our table reservations are for 7 so I think we should go if we are to get there in time' Sheldon pointed out, he was still standing beside the booth.
'Sheldon its fine were eating at the hotels restaurant Ally managed after controlling her laughter.
'I am well aware of where we are eating having checked the health and safety records of the restaurant personally. The reservation was for 7 it is now 7. 03, it will take us exactly 2.35 minutes to reach said restaurant which means…'
'Ok, ok were going' Penny said as they rose from the booth and made there way across the bar to the restaurant.
The rest of the night passed without anymore trouble from Twilight fans so Howard and Raj were able to relax and enjoy the meal. Sheldon and Ally spent the time debating over who was the greatest comic book character ever, based on special skills and character back stories, with input from Howard and Raj occasionally. Leonard and Penny spent the meal flirting whilst talking about the pro's of Penny Comic con costume.

Sorry it's taken me so long to get another Chapter up, major writers block combined with being addicted to reading other people FF is my excuse.
