Resistance is futile - from lumineaux

1. OK, so you're Queen. What are your whims?
This is a hard one, as that is a job that I really would never care to do.
1. Court to start ON TIME.
2. More food cooked from known period techniques/ingredients and not redacted from "known" recipes. Things that are tasty and packed with protein (preferably animal).
3. More fencing tournaments that are duel based and less melee.
4. More demonstrations of true period fighting styles, sword, lance, polearms, rapier, etc.
5. More A & S projects focused on techniques and imagination rather than copies of existing works.
6. Cold coke and sugar free red bull to be supplied in the royal room.

2. Where do you find your energy?
I was hatched that way. Gram and mom both had energy abound as well. I have been told, it is just the way I am hard wired. When I was little, I would go until I dropped. Literally. Where ever I was. They even found me sleeping up the stair case.

3. Who's your favorite muppet?
Kermit the Frog. As far back as I can remember.

4. If you could pick one superpower, what would it be?
The ability to control time. There is so much I want to do, see and experience. And never enough time to do it all.

5. Are there foods that you don't like or don't like to cook?
Oh yes... I despise Lima beans and organ meats (especially liver). I don't like to eat them, I don't like to cook them, can't stand the smell of them. There is a reason I delegated the soup this weekend. Cooked carrots, its a texture thing. Eggplant and tofu, if the gods wanted me to eat a sponge, they would have been made tastier. I'm sure there are others, but those are at the top of my list.
I am willing to entertain more questions, if anyone is so inclined.

There would still need to be documentation. I'm of the show me you know what you are doing bucket. I want to know why, where, how and such. That's my researchy ,geeky nature. The I've copied this from a painting or find or what not, is like making a photocopy.

There should still be creative. Use the paintings to understand what they were doing. Then be a seamstress and sew what will make you happy. Our bards make our SCA history.Sing songs in a period style, use modern events to inspire the lyrics. That kinda thing. Im probably explaining it wrong. I know when I cross the line, why, and such. But I also know what would have been done and why.

I think we are in agreement here. I am perhaps just a little touchy on the "using C-Means-Creative!" cricket bat about the face and head to pass off all manner of OOP nonsense.

(It clearly marks me as grumpy and old, but after more than fifteen years, the smiley-face Viking pants and the hot pink handsewn velvet Elizabethan and the Bayeaux samplers with Coke cans just make me tired and wanting to curl up and hide with my copy of Bede.)

I'd give you a detonator. ;)

This is a fabulous and deeply wonderful expression of love. ;)

I think those are lines, even I wouldn't cross. Sigh.
