I recognize that carpet. It's the Sheraton in Dallas where they hold AnimeFest.

... but the badge Rose is wearing doesn't look like a (recent) AnimeFest badge. When was this? Reverse image search gives me nada.

>Artists can't stay at their tables 24 hours, and packing up inventory everyday is doable but unreasonable and I'd like to think people would have enough decently to not bother tables that are covered up. Just letting you guys know so you can keep an eye out next time, artists work really hard please look out for them.

That's probably how they pulled this off.

Look in the background - the fellow on the right carrying the white rack. How would you know him from one of the artists? Obviously, you can't do this while the artists or their friend(s) are manning the booth, but after hours? Unless you had met/talked to/seen them during business hours, an artist hauling some inventory up to his room for safe-keeping wouldn't look too different from a thief.

... and who would have the guts to challenge them on their identity?
