For my birthday a week or so before my latest trip, my mom got me this shirt with Merida on it and underneath her are the words "I Choose My Own Fate". Anyway, I wore it to the Magic Kingdom, and we ended up in line for Merida. I had also dyed my curly hair red, because I'm such a Brave fanatic, and the red actually looks good on me.
So I'm at the front, and the cast member sees me, and she tells me to turn around to hide my shirt. So I do, and I hear her tell Merida there's a "special guest" or something like that. So I turn around to go meet her, grinning, and she was just awesome. She just locks elbows with me and we start to walk out of the area, off to change our fates. We get to the door way, and the cast member there is like, "Where are you going?" So Merida just gestures to my shirt. The cast member told us we had to go back, so we walk back, chatting. I said, "Next time." and she was like, "Yes, next time." So we get back, and Merida asks the cast members why couldn't they have made a distraction or something. And they were like, "Well, if you had waited, not been so impulsive, etc." and then a cannon sounded. Merida was just like, "There it was."
So we hung out, took pictures and stuff for another couple of minutes, but then we had to go. It's my best character experience ever I think.
