I really enjoyed what Lio did, and here we are, getting to talk about it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;re talking all about the Cosplay and characters that Lio does. However, we start off at a young age as Lio talks about growing up with parents who are nerds, and how their influences rubbed off on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lio talks about some of their favorite characters, and we do spend a bit of time with Laura Kinney aka Wolverine, fka X-23. We talk about the characters that Lio cosplays as, like Claudia from Interview with the Vampire, Invisigal from Dispatch, and more. While they trend towards emo characters, a surprising princess made it into Lio&#8217;s rotation &#8211; and we talk about how and why!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We talk about how they choose the characters they cosplay, the group collaborations they&#8217;ve done, and what Lio is planning to do in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find Lio at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/lionbcos\/\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/lionbcos\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@lionbcos\">https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@lionbcos<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lio aka Lionbcos joins me to talk all about Cosplay, the characters they do, and so much more.
