@philemonchambers Final mini recap of my trip to Washington for #creationdc . I had the best time from start to finish and meet so many beautiful faces. Thank you’s go out to many people but the big one goes out to y’all! This wouldn’t have been possible if you didn’t bombard @creationent with requests and I’m so appreciative. Here’s to hopefully doing this again 🤞🏽 until than enjoy the video. Thank you to my stylist @styledbyfern for delivering a moment 🙌🏽
Awe! I'm so glad Philemon had a great time! It looks like he and his mom were busy. I hope he gets invited back so more people have the opportunity to meet such a precious soul!
Jared has such a good heart and is so empathetic. He's also really good at reading people. Glad he was able to offer comfort to so many this weekend but I hope he made sure to take care of himself as well.

This is one of the most tender, loving photos I've seen. Thank you for pointing me towards this, anon.
I hope everyone, from the guests, to the attendees, and most especially to Krista and her family, found strength through all the love and support that was shared this last weekend and are also taking care of themselves, best they can.
And I'll add, because I agree with op, that this thread about seeing Jared's op with Krista and him needing a moment to collect himself after etc. shows that he was pretty affected by the whole thing:
It's hard not to be. They're all saying goodbye to a fandom friend who, as I've seen, has been going to cons for 14 years. And I know there's a disconnect (as there should be) between actors and fans, it doesn't mean that they don't feel for others, especially a very familiar face.
I suspect tomorrow will be just as difficult for everyone who knows and loves Krista (and even for some who don't know her). For those attending, I hope they remember to take care of themselves while supporting others.
And for Krista and her family, I hope they all feel the love and take strength and support from everyone there.
Philemon's been tweeting up a storm! Check out some of his reactions and responses to DC Con tweets!

Philemon has also taken the time to respond to so many other people with love and adoration! If you need a serotonin boost, follow the link and just read through his replies! Philemon is a treasure!
We also saw Jared hugging people on stage on Saturday. He crashed DJ, Gil, and David’s panel, and made a point to go hug Rob. On top of the story of him hugging Krista. This seems like he cares quite a bit about both fans and the cast.
We've always known Jared has the biggest heart! I'm not surprised that he's taking this opportunity to let his friends know how much he loves them.
About the DC con: One anon said they didn't go to the Saturday concert either after everything that was going on. Can you give me the background of the situation?
Sure, for those who aren't aware, Krista (aka Kreespa), a convention veteran who's been attending since 2009 and who has also filmed multiple panels, has terminal cancer and this is her last convention. Creation and those involved have termed DC KristaCon in her honor. They've put together shirts and allowed her to pick the songs for SNS. She was also the guest on Kim and Briana's podcast recording.
I'm sure there will be more happening tomorrow and there's really just been a lot of love and support surrounding Krista and her family this weekend.
