Story:	Date with Destiny: With Anime Overdose just a day away, I was deciding what costumes to bring. Marv Wolfman would be making an appearance and it would be a shame to not bring a Teen Titans costume there. I had actually considered this costume in the past, but when AJ had put out the call Dez was to be Robin. But being over there on a different continent, and poor AJ without a Date of Destiny, I was up to the mask, err task. Even though this is one of the most instant of instant cosplay, it's also one of the priciest as my suit was a custom tailor job. AJ's Prom Starfire was already complete so it was a simple task to bring it over and take Prom pictures. Just like high school all over again! I even got a customary dead plant to wear to make it complete. Bosozoku: In an attempt to stall again from making the full regular version, I took some scrap white fabric from Lance and made Bosozoku Robin, which I used to call Yakuza Robin until I was corrected by Irineo, who helped to animate the movie. It was good to actually finish this version because it forced me to complete the boots, which are the same as in the default version, and probably one of the most detailed and annoying parts of the default costume to make. Default: Initially AJ wanted me to be Robin, but I didn't like him so much at the time, so I opted for Aqualad at the time of our Teen Titans debut. Robin was cast to our friend Shinbios in England, who never got around to making the costume. Slowly AJ shifted me back into the role of Robin as first she got Prom Robin, and then Ziggy and I went to the Teen Titans Studios in Burbank and got the idea to do all the Titans in Robin costumes. So I bought the fabric in 2006. Then came Bosozoku. Finally 3 years later, her wish comes true!
