The Moggle Cell Strap Story.

Hey Everyone,

This is Aki, and I"m here to tell a little story about why Square Enix makes me a happily obsessive fangirl.

1. I went to get the two Mini Figure series sets that are out at the moment, and the guys from the back informed everyone there were only two Moogle Cell Phone Straps left. Knowing that my mom obsesses over Moogles and think they're the most adorable thing on the planet, I told the cashier that I wanted one.

2. A guy directly behind me tells the cashier he wants the other one, so no big deal, the last straps are sold, right?

3. I go from the Squenix booth on the Dealer's Showroom Floor to where my parents are in their wheelchairs on the second floor. We collapse on the floor next to my mom who says she'll watch our stuff because I wanted to go get something from Jlist.

4. We go back downstairs to Jlist's booth, and the specific grab bag I wanted was out for the day. I didn't mind, but then Yuka gets my attention and says that my mom just called saying that I didn't get the cell phone strap in my bag. Oops, dumb Aki for not checking first.

5. We go back upstairs to get the bag from my mom and the receipt which was way too small in my opinion, but never mind that. SO, we take the bag BACK to Squenix and tell them that they didn't put it in the bag.

6. As it turned out, the guy totally remembered me and looked at me like I just shot his dog. @_@ He apologized left and right and said that they sold the last one that SHOULD have been mine to someone else; it was sitting on a table in the back all alone in the world.

7. I was sad, but I asked if I could get another cell phone strap that was the same price, and it turned out that they still had Chocobo straps. He let me take one of those and kept apologizing; I thought it was cute. xD

8. I gave the Chocobo to mom and she thought it was totally adorable; Aki's "Buy a Cell Phone Strap for Mom": COMPLETE! >:D
