ELIZABETH ANNE ALLEN
NORBRECK, BLACKPOOL - CON
30th APRIL - 2nd MAY 2004

A total sweetheart...

The first time I saw Elizabeth was at her photoshoot on the Saturday. Funny thing is that the first Buffy episode I ever saw was the Witch, the first episode featuring Amy, so it was really cool to meet the real "Amy".

ME: "Hi... can I have a hug?"

She gave me the cutest surprised look ever.

ELIZABETH: "Of *course*..."

I had of course delivered the drawing to the Stewards as usual in the autograph session, as it was the last one I had to give out, her and Nicks, who were in the same suite. I had attached a small letter about how much I admired her and how I hoped to see her in other roles as well. It's pretty much all I remember from it. When I reached her table I handed her the yearbook, opened at the student profiles in the back. She chuckled when she saw it.

ELIZABETH: "Oh, *that* famous picture..."

I suspected that I wouldn't get the chance to speak to her again, like I had gotten with Clare, Juliet and Emma, so I decided to let it slip about the drawing.

ME: "There's a drawing I left with the Stewards that I made for you, I really hope you like it"

ELIZABETH: "Oh really? Thank you..."

My suspicions had been correct, I didn't get to talk to her after that, but I asked Sean if she had liked it and he said she had, so I was content with the answer.

At the closing ceremony I saw her sitting together with Juliet, they were talking, I was at the second row and waved to Juliet and she waved to me, then Elizabeth did as well. If they were talking about the drawings or not I'll never know, most likely not, but it's nice to pretend it was what they had been talking about.
