Con Autograph Question Etiquette for Actor signing

I’m a teenager going to my first con soon. The actor for my favorite character from my favorite show and book will be attending. I payed 150ish for the premium autograph they offer. I originally wanted to get my book signed but came into hands of a pop of the character and was wondering if it would be too much of me to ask if they could sign both or just suck it up and stick to the book?

Heavily depends, usually its a one a pop system BUT since you're a teen, and depending on the actor and interaction, they might be open to both. Just ask politely, and accept if not with grace, any pushy-ness or assuming would be quick to get you dismissed/waved off especially by their handler

Are you open to saying who the actor is or? Because if its more of a niche series/actor, might be in your favor

Sadly its not. It's Kit Harington and I think he's one of the headlines for the con since they have a whole page of different tickets you can purchase solely for him compared to the diff actors. I was thinking of having him sign the cover for my new game of thrones book.

Yeah with Kit you'll get one, and a quick interaction to move on. Keep in mind books are usually signed inside the cover. Signatures on covers can be difficult if you don't have the right kind of pen, and basicakky mean you put the book on display and don't touch it.
