13 years ago Briana Lawrence (Brichibi Cosplays) and Jessica Walsh (Snow Tigra) were two fanfiction writing ladies who geeked out over Gundam Wing boys and Resident Evil. Now? They’re a cosplaying couple who write books, make crafts, and are generally nerdy women. Snow is the costume, hat, and plushie maker of the couple. Meanwhile, Brichibi tends to talk about issues in the cosplay community and how the most important thing about cosplay is to have fun and love yourself. Together, they also have a book series started — “Seeking the Storyteller.” They bring their urban fantasy series to conventions along with their solo works and art. Always promoting positivity and always supporting one another, Brichibi and Snow are smiling their way through the geek scene.
