[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:03:51] * Evie says hello and offers you a goblet of Fianna wine
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:03:53] <BalanceTheEnergies> Hello KK
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:03:56] <Alkari> Welcome, KK
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:04:00] <KK> Hello, all.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:04:15] <Evie> Drat, we all forgot to jump out from behind the couch yelling "SURPRISE!!!" ;-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:04:18] <bynw> hi KK
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:04:23] <jemler> SURPRISE!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:04:28] <Evie> SURPRISE!!!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:04:28] <jemler> HI kk
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:04:47] <KK> Why surprise? Did you not expect me?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:04:53] <Evie> Loses a bit of impact when it's announced beforehand, jemler. ;-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:04:53] Join the_Bee has joined this channel (the_Bee@OWIRCN-268b09c9.ma.comcast.net).
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:04:59] <jemler> SURPRISE!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:05:01] <jemler> hi bee
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:05:11] <Alkari> Hi there bee
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:05:16] <KK> Hi, Bee.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:05:18] <jemler> it's a Surprise party
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:05:21] <the_Bee> hi jemler. What's the surprise?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:05:24] <KK> Your timing is perfect.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:05:27] <the_Bee> Hi KK
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:05:28] <Evie> Oh, we figured you might show up, given it's KK Chat time. I'd just joked earlier about doing that to the next unsuspecting person to enter the room
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:05:41] <BalanceTheEnergies> We had a momentary silence at the time.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:05:47] <derynifanatic64> 12the more the merrier
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:05:51] <the_Bee> and hi alkari
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:05:59] <KK> LOL
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:06:06] * Evie hands out cake, ice cream, cookies, coffee, and other refreshments
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:06:21] <Alkari> Only we have to be careful not to tip over the trays of goodies
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:06:24] <derynifanatic64> 12the food has arrived
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:06:38] <Alkari> don't forget the pizza for Jass!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:07:00] <the_Bee> We had out annual Bunker Hill Day parade today. KK, you know how a battle fought on Breed's Hill became known as the Battle of Bunker Hill?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:07:13] <Evie> I had to send the big cake back to the kitchens, though. Duke Ewan wanted to come bursting out of it, but I figured no one really wanted to see that.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:07:21] <bynw> hi KK from beautiful colorado (where i'm having a vacation ... inlaws 50th wedding anniv)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:07:24] <KK> I used to know, but I've forgotten.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:07:40] <KK> LOL, Evie.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:08:01] <Alkari> HOw are things with you, KK?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:08:07] Join Jass_MacArdry has joined this channel (Mibbit@61024F.FD378A.5CEAB8.21C73C).
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:08:16] <jemler> hi Jass
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:08:18] <KK> Things are good. I've had an excellent two weeks of writing.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:08:24] <Alkari> YAY!!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:08:29] <derynifanatic64> 12:D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:08:29] <Jass_MacArdry> Did someone say Pizza?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:08:36] <Evie> Did someone say writing? :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:08:37] <the_Bee> The plan was to fortify the tallest hill in the neighborhood under cover of darkness. Came the morning, they discovered that in the dark they'd fortified the wrong hill.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:08:38] <derynifanatic64> 12PIZZA!!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:09:22] <Alkari> So how many chapters have you added? :)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:09:30] <KK> About 4.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:09:41] <BalanceTheEnergies> Wow.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:09:44] * Evie does a cartwheel
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:09:46] <the_Bee> anything you want to tell us?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:09:53] <Alkari> Wonderful!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:10:05] <KK> And one of them is a pivot point for Alaric's transition from a carefree kid to a serious and driven one.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:10:07] <Alkari> HOw many people have you killed off, though?!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:10:15] <Evie> Uh oh.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:10:29] <Evie> I can just imagine a certain event that might prove to be that pivot point
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:10:30] <KK> Not many people.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:10:36] * Alkari doesn't like sound of that ...
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:10:37] <Evie> and I suspect it involves Kenneth
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:11:10] <KK> Nope, haven't gotten back to that point yet.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:11:23] * Evie puts away the Black Dress of Mourning
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:11:28] <Evie> Oh, good. *phew!*
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:11:36] <Alkari> I imagine it's even after Kenneth's death - maybe first big meeting with Brion?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:11:57] <KK> This is all the expansion of Chapter 9, and takes place in Lendour and Corwyn, and on the way back to Rhemuth.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:12:00] <the_Bee> Has Loris shown up yet?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:12:19] <Evie> Or it has something to do with him realizing Deryni aren't the most popular folks on the planet
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:12:30] <Alkari> So how old is Alaric then?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:12:49] <KK> He now knows how deadly dangerous it is to be who and what he is.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:12:55] <Alkari> poor kid
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:13:14] <Evie> If Kenneth isn't dead yet, I'm guessing Alaric is still young? What was he a few weeks ago, eight?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:13:30] <KK> ep, turns 8 in the ocurse of those 4 chapters.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:13:34] <KK> course
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:13:44] <the_Bee> He was 9 when Kenneth died, wasn't he?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:13:53] <Alkari> Just
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:14:04] <Evie> Yeah, that's young for learning that one can be killed just for being oneself. Poor kid.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:14:24] <KK> Yep. And on a lighter note, he's gotten quite hooked on Cardounet.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:14:37] <Evie> :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:14:53] <Alkari> lol
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:15:04] <BalanceTheEnergies> :-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:15:22] <KK> We've met a younger Henry Kirby, too, when he was just a helmsman on one of the Corwyn ships, and hoping to have his own ship someday. He and Alaric play Cardounet.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:15:35] <Alkari> oh nice
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:15:43] <Evie> I was hooked on "Monster Chess" at that age. I forget what the differences between Monster Chess and real chess were, aside from funky looking pieces and a slightly different chess board with arrows on it
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:16:47] <Evie> LOL! Gigi just hopped up, sniffed the screen, decided she wasn't interested in chess or cardounet apparently, and wandered off again.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:17:01] <derynifanatic64> 12or 3 dimensional chess from Star Trek
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:17:01] <Alkari> Aha! Cardouent Cat Repellent.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:17:54] <Evie> Sounds like a lovely, productive fortnight, then, KK.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:18:03] <Evie> May you have many more. :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:18:38] <Alkari> And it sound like the book is growijng like Topsy.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:19:10] <the_Bee> any title ideas yet?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:19:54] <Evie> I think we can rule out "Alaric Morgan and the Call of Cthulhu."
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:20:04] <the_Bee> LOL
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:20:47] * Evie sits on hands to ward off the temptation to write a parody crossover about Morgan warding off Cthulhu
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:20:56] <KK> Still mulling a title.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:21:52] <Alkari> He doesn't exactly reach the teenage years properly, if you are ending after Kelson's birth, so you you can't have "Morgan the Angsty Teenager"
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:21:54] <the_Bee> something to do with coming of age, maybe
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:21:59] <Evie> What spices do you use when mulling a title? I've only mulled wine and cider.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:23:05] <Evie> Ninja Teenage Deryni..... Naah
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:23:23] <BalanceTheEnergies> Something to do with his promotion to squire?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:23:33] <Alkari> By the way, KK - on a slightly different Morgan and Duncan tack - for Codex 3, can you possibly publish the family tree showing how those wto are descended from RHys and Evaine?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:23:40] <Evie> Or does he get that far? He might still be Page Morgan
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:23:55] <Alkari> He's about 14 isn't he, when Kelson is born?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:24:16] <BalanceTheEnergies> Isn't that the age for the promotion?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:24:34] <the_Bee> He's 14 when he helps Brion defeat the Marluk.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:24:55] <Alkari> So, even though you inherit your title of Duke or Earl fully at age 14, you still spend some years as a squire to someone
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:25:00] <the_Bee> IRC Kelson was conceived after that.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:25:26] <Alkari> I thought he was only 13 then - Charissa remembers himas not even being of age at thebattle
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:25:43] <the_Bee> myabe you're right.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:25:50] <Evie> Oh! I actually remembered my Duncan question for once! :D We've seen where Alaric sleeps when he's in Rhemuth, and where Dhugal's chambers are, etc. And we've had lovely descriptions of Duncan's study. But where does the bishop actually sleep at night? Does he have a room at the Cathedral, or near it, or in the Basilica, or at the Castle? Or lodgings in the city? A rented room at the bathhouse? (Just kidding about that last!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:25:58] <BalanceTheEnergies> Well, if memory serves, the civil disabilities still exist for Deryni (they don't get titles until 25), but i suspect Brion changes that in light of Morgan's services against the Marluck.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:26:49] <KK> Yes, Brion makes an exception for Alaric, but he still has to wait for his knighthood--though that age, too, can be fudged for good cause.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:26:57] <the_Bee> Didn't Jehana run off to a convent when she realized Brion had used magic to win?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:27:03] <BalanceTheEnergies> Tht's what i thought.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:28:02] <Evie> until Brion dragged her back and growled "Gimme heirs, woman!" ;-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:28:04] <Alkari> So Alaric re,mains as squire to Brion fropm age 14 to 18
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:28:23] <BalanceTheEnergies> @ Bee i was under the impression that she did, that Brion brought her back, and tha's why Kelson was born the follownig November.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:28:28] <KK> When Duncan is in charge at the basilica, I expect he has a room there. Once he's a bishop, he'd have quarters at the cathdral, but also rooms at the castle, so that he can be avialable for Kelson.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:28:56] <the_Bee> Codex says Alaric was born in 1091, Kelson in 1106.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:29:13] <Evie> So when he's rector at the Schola during and after KKB, he might well have a room at the Basilica still, maybe even his old one from his pre-bishop days?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:29:42] <BalanceTheEnergies> Didn't Kelson say that was part of the point of the schola job?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:29:50] <KK> He'd have quarters at the schola and at the castle, once he's rector.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:30:22] <Evie> Twice the opportunity for leaving that book he was reading on the wrong nightstand. ;-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:30:54] <KK> That's what I've always objected to, concerning holiday or weekend homes. What you want would always be at the other place.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:31:02] <Alkari> lol
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:31:05] <Evie> :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:31:18] <BalanceTheEnergies> Or else you have to buy two of everything.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:31:31] <Evie> "Could you have a page drop this off at my personal chamber, please?" "Certainly, my Lord Bishop. Um...which one?" :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:31:41] <jemler> i can't afford 2 ipads!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:31:45] <KK> Plus, you have to transport all the critters back and fprth, or else board them or hire a pet-sitter.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:32:03] <Alkari> Yes, transporting critters is a major issue
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:32:08] <derynifanatic64> 12:D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:32:15] <the_Bee> It's easier when you only have one critter.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:32:16] <KK> And we have...many.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:32:22] <Evie> Well, at least with a room at the Basilica and one in the Castle itself, it's a simple matter of a short walk through the parklands or the secret passage in the wall
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:32:24] <Alkari> At least with horses, I could leave them at the stables.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:32:32] <KK> Three dogs and 6 cats, if you count Cameron's two.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:32:42] <Alkari> You need a Pet Wagon.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:32:51] <Evie> yes, because you wouldn't want to walk Ryan through the secret passage, Alkari. he'd hate the stairs. ;-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:33:19] <Alkari> No he wouldn't - you should have seenthe places he got into of his own accord!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:33:33] <Alkari> And he was used to our trails.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:33:47] <Evie> I figure Duncan could just get one of the Servants of Saint Camber to feed the Basilica kitties if he decided to bunk down at the Castle for the night. :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:33:48] <the_Bee> Ryan?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:33:55] <Evie> Her late horse
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:34:06] <the_Bee> Ah. RIP Ryan.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:34:08] <Alkari> My old horse - living model for Cockleburr
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:34:51] <Alkari> Basilica kitties would have gone rat hunting
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:34:58] <Evie> Yes, late as in deceased, not as in constantly tardy, she says, belatedly realizing "late horse" could have that meaning as well. :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:35:06] <Alkari> lol
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:35:34] <Alkari> So KK - poor Alaric has to leave his dog with Bronwyn when he goes to court
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:36:39] <KK> Yep, he's become Bronwyn's dog, through closer association.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:36:42] <Alkari> tough for a kid going to court if you are used to having pets around. As bad as leaving family
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:36:45] <Evie> Alaric's loss, Bronwyn's gain
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:37:18] <Alkari> He'll be glad the dog's guarding her though
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:37:31] <the_Bee> I really want to see more of Bronwyn. Bronwyn in love was like a giddy teenager.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:37:35] <KK> This has happened before he goes to court after Kenneth dies. The dog stayed at Morganhall when Alaric went with his father, so that the two of them could travel unimpeded.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:37:41] <Evie> The Haldanes have lots of pets, but they're called "pages" at Rhemuth Castle. ;-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:37:52] * Alkari whaps Evie
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:37:56] <Evie> :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:38:28] <Evie> Don't abuse the Evie. Treat her kindly, and feed her pizza.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:38:33] <BalanceTheEnergies> So we'll get to see his other holdings, like LLendour?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:38:55] <KK> THey go to Lendour regularly, and to Corwyn, so that Kenneth can administer those estates.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:38:58] * Jass_MacArdry perks up at "pizza"
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:39:06] <Alkari> Yes, Lendour is a mysterious land, barely mentioned in the Kelson era books
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:39:37] <BalanceTheEnergies> exactly Alkari. I only remeber references to a rainy saeson there.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:39:48] <Alkari> And St Neot's being there.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:39:54] <KK> Hey, they went there for Zoe's wedding.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:40:12] <the_Bee> Whom did she marry?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:40:41] <Evie> Jovett, wasn't it?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:41:02] * Evie looks for book and realizes it's in the wrong room
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:41:19] <KK> Yes, Jovett.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:41:33] <KK> THey have 3 children when we see them in this book.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:42:00] <Alkari> Who have become invisible by Kelson's time, LOL
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:42:01] <Evie> In how many years? Sounds like they don't own a television. :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:42:18] <derynifanatic64> 12:D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:42:48] <KK> Or dead.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:43:09] * Evie makes note to self to have the Black Gown of Mourning dry cleaned
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:43:11] <Alkari> Now, why did I *know* you were going to suggest that, KK !!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:43:39] <BalanceTheEnergies> Um, 'cause childbirth was hazardous back then?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:43:39] <Alkari> You are are a Serial Killer par excellence.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:44:13] <Evie> Or 'cause being Deryni was dangerous back then, more likely
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:44:19] <Alkari> No, BTE - it's hazardous being a character in a KK novel :D

[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:44:34] <Evie> Yes. They ought to be born with Surgeon General warnings
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:44:36] <the_Bee> Zoe? Deryni?

[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:44:54] <Evie> Jovett is, isn't he? Or am I misremembering
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:44:55] <Alkari> If you don't actually die, you "nearly": die and get tgortured.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:44:59] <Evie> Hi, kirienne!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:45:02] <deryni_guest2147> Hi everyone
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:45:14] <jemler> hi Kirienne
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:45:14] <BalanceTheEnergies> hello kirienne
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:45:17] <Alkari> Hi Kirienne
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:45:18] <deryni_guest2147> nick new_kirienne
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:45:21] <the_Bee> type /nick username
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:45:48] Nick deryni_guest2147 is now known as kirienne.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:45:52] <kirienne> yay!!!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:45:52] <KK> Jovett is Deryni.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:45:54] * Evie says hello and offers you a goblet of Fianna wine
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:45:56] <kirienne> Hi Everyone
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:46:01] <derynifanatic64> 12hi
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:46:10] <KK> So his and Zoe's children are half-Deryni like Alaric.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:46:16] <kirienne> oooohhh, thanks Evie
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:46:42] <Evie> There's a platter of desserts on the sideboard, and KK is sharing goodies from her book in progress. :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:46:54] <Alkari> All of whom die before Deryni Rising!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:46:59] <the_Bee> If the kids all inherited their father's X chromosome, thay must all be girls?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:47:27] <Evie> Yes. In fact, there's a new edition of Deryni Rising coming out that's one page long, and that page just says "Everyone died. Stop reading now." :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:47:29] <Alkari> Unless you have revised the Deryni genetics, KK?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:47:34] <kirienne> I'm glad I had a chance to come in here today
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:47:38] <Alkari> rofl @ EVie
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:47:42] <the_Bee> maybe they're just not mentioned.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:47:51] <kirienne> LOL, about the new edition
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:47:55] <KK> I revised the genetics long ago. That original bit was just a theory. It got better.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:48:07] <Evie> "Twas but a scratch. It got better."
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:48:18] <jemler> Evie, don't tell me how it ends!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:48:22] <Evie> Sorry. *thwacks Monty Python*
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:48:28] <Alkari> Says Evie, watching her amputated leg
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:49:01] <Evie> it's just a flesh wound
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:49:12] <Alkari> just needs a bandaid
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:49:30] <derynifanatic64> 12whew!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:49:32] <Alkari> Though I am sure you would heal better with assistance of a Derynibishop
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:49:42] <derynifanatic64> 12definitely
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:49:44] <Evie> At least your genetics don't involve triple helices, so I don't end up giggling my head off when I try to make sense of it. :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:50:01] <Evie> Like I do when I try to imagine how Pernese DNA works
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:50:03] <kirienne> :-)

[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:50:39] <Alkari> KK, if you are going to kill off people, at least make sure that the nasty page comes to a painful end
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:50:39] <Alkari> Hi SHiral
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:50:51] <Shiral> Hello All just borrowing a few monents of contraband chat time.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:50:52] <DesertRose> Hi kirienne. Was not paying attention when you come in.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:50:53] <derynifanatic64> 12hi shiral
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:50:58] <kirienne> Hi Shiral
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:51:19] <Evie> I take it you mean the lad who is mean to Alaric, Alkari, and not some book page that's particularly graphic, or that's all the violent scenes gone in one whack. ;-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:51:40] <Alkari> Yes Evie - I couldn't think of the kid's name offhand
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:51:57] <Evie> Was it Cornelius? Or somethng like that?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:52:08] <Shiral> First, I hope Alaric will find some impressive way to get even with the kid =o)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:52:15] <Alkari> I am sure we could make suggestions as to suitable endings for him :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:52:35] <the_Bee> all the desserts die???
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:52:37] <Evie> Alaric could release the wards holding back Cthulhu....no, wait
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:52:41] <Shiral> Since we know Alaric is admirably able to fight his own battles in adulthood
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:52:51] <the_Bee> All the desserts die???
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:52:59] <Evie> Nooo! Save the desserts!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:53:04] <BalanceTheEnergies> ..and smart enough to pick them when possible.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:53:05] <KK> I think I can come up with a suitable ending for Cornelius.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:53:06] <Evie> Save the entire set!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:53:19] <Shiral> Kill the cauliflower instead!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:53:29] <KK> BRB
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:53:44] <Shiral> Aww. I just get here and she disappears!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:53:47] <Evie> It *was* Cornelius then! Why is it I can't recall a client's name from week to week, but I remember your book characters, even if I've not read the book yet??? I need a life.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:53:50] <kirienne> I agree shiral, that can be killed off ;-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:54:00] <the_Bee> I didn't mean to type that twice. My scroll bar fell behind the conversation.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:54:12] <bynw> hi Shiral, missed you coming in to the chat
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:54:20] <Shiral> Slipped in late
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:54:37] * Evie hands Shiral a pastry and a kitten
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:54:49] <derynifanatic64> 12I've got a big storm in my area so I need to shut down--see you all next week
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:54:54] <KK> I'm back. Had to turn on the oven to preheat.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:54:56] <Shiral> I eat the one that's sugary, right?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:54:58] <Evie> See you, DF!

[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:55:20] <Shiral> =o)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:55:32] <Evie> Unless the kitten has been rolling in sugar, in which case ask for a second opinion, please!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:55:35] <Shiral> Aww, it's purring! But it's eying my eclair
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:55:39] <DesertRose> LOL
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:55:40] <KK> (I'm just watching the end of Knights of the Round Table.)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:55:46] <Evie> You have eclairs?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:55:50] * Evie eyes Shiral's eclair
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:55:55] <DesertRose> "Let's not go to Camelot. It is a silly place."
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:55:58] <Shiral> Alas, no. I thought that was what you handed me
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:55:59] <Evie> LOL
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:56:15] <Shiral> Thankfully, the kitten is not sticky
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:56:15] <DesertRose> Since we're having a Monty Python sort of evening in chat. :)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:56:27] <Shiral> It just has the normal compliment of claws
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:56:41] * Shiral takes pity on Evie and gives her an e clair
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:56:49] <Shiral> eclair, too
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:56:54] <Evie> The kitten has claws. Not the eclair. OK. Tracking conversation again now.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:57:00] <kirienne> LOL
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:57:17] <Shiral> Dieting might be easier if eclairs were actually eclaws
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:57:26] <DesertRose> Mmm. Eclairs.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:57:33] * Evie checks the Lapsang Souchong to make sure it doesn't have something hallucinogenic added
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:57:38] * Shiral gives DR an eclair, too
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:57:40] <DesertRose> LOL
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:57:41] <the_Bee> "What lovely claws you have, Kitty!"
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:57:42] <Alkari> ooh yes, eclairs
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:57:43] <DesertRose> Thanks, Shiral.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:57:50] <Alkari> Creamy claws, even
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:57:53] * Shiral gives KK an eclair as well
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:58:14] <Evie> It could be an e-clair. We're in an electronic room, after all.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:58:26] <Shiral> I can't stay much longer, but how's the book progressing, KK?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:58:41] <KK> One chapter became 4 in the past two weeks.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:58:49] <KK> :-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:58:54] <Shiral> Wow! Talk about cell division!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:59:01] <Shiral> =o) sort of...
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:59:02] <kirienne> For 'coffee hour' after church, I sometimes take those frozen mini eclairs when it's my Sunday to host it.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:59:06] <Evie> She's given us a squeeworthy transcript for DR to post later. ;-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:59:24] <KK> Yep. And Alaric has learned a sad but important lesson regarding the consequences of being Deryni.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:59:24] <kirienne> yay for transcript!!!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:59:26] <Shiral> Well, then I guess I'll have to squee and run
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:59:32] <DesertRose> Yes, she's told us all kinds of neat stuff about the new book.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:59:42] <Alkari> SOunds like you are still filling in the backstory before Alaric goes to court, KK
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:59:43] * Evie makes mental note to find kirienne's church on Google Maps next time she's hosting coffee hour. ;-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:59:48] <kirienne> Poor Alaric
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [19:59:51] <Shiral> DANG! of all the sundays for me to develop a work ethic!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:00:06] <KK> Yep. Ahould get back to Kenneth in a couple of days. I'm just joining up two ends ehre.

[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:01:25] <Evie> Preheated oven needs to eat? :)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:01:49] <Alkari> no - needs meal put in :)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:01:55] <Evie> Same thing
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:02:05] <Jass_MacArdry> Pizza. ;-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:02:09] <kirienne> I have bacon cooking in my oven, to add to the potato salad I'm making later tonight
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:02:15] <Evie> One track mind, Jass.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:02:25] <DesertRose> You guys are making me hungry. :)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:02:26] <Evie> yum, kirienne!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:02:28] <Alkari> I just remembered to take my ghastly tablets for tomorrow
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:02:37] <the_Bee> I'm trying to cook spare ribs in a microwave.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:02:47] <KK> Back. Preheated oven needed a meatloaf put into it.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:02:54] <kirienne> yummm
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:02:55] <Evie> are the ghastly tablets incorporeal? Oh, wait, that's ghastly, not ghostly
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:02:55] <DesertRose> Ah.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:03:10] <Alkari> mmmm - meatloaf
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:03:33] <kirienne> It's been awhile since I made meatloaf...I should make it more often since I really like it. :-)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:03:34] <KK> I was smart the last time I made it. Madee two and froze one--which is now tonight's dinner!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:03:37] <jemler> so did the pot roast we had for dinner tonight.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:03:38] <Evie> Note to self: KK's house for meatloaf, then kirienne's for potato salad
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:03:49] <kirienne> LOL
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:03:50] <Alkari> And EVie's place for eclairs?
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:04:01] <Evie> LOL! No, Shiral had the eclairs
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:04:05] <KK> I make good meatloaf. One of the magic ingredients is a can of mushrooms.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:04:12] <Alkari> You can come here for red wine though.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:04:18] <kirienne> that sounds very yum
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:04:22] <Evie> My place for Lapsang Souchong, though that still leaves you out, Alkari. :D
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:04:27] <bynw> i use my homemade salsa when i make meatloaf
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:04:28] <jemler> and jemler's place for crackers, bananas, and nuts! :)
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:04:35] <Alkari> I'll stick with the wine!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:04:41] <Evie> all of which describe you, jemler
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:04:51] <jemler> you are what you eat@
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:04:52] <jemler> !

[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:05:14] <Evie> Great. In that case Jass is going to turn into pepperoni
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:05:38] <Jass_MacArdry> I heard tha', lass!
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:05:57] <kirienne> I have a roast cooking in my crockpot
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:06:11] <KK> On that note, I'd better boogie. I have accompaniments to make--and there's a book waiting.
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:06:21] <Alkari> I have to get my crockpot out later and do a casserole
[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:06:21] <Evie> Yes, write!!! :D

[Sunday 12 June 2011] [20:07:00] <Evie> I just realized, I've been on vacation for two weeks and have hardly written a thing, and now you're writing up a storm. So maybe I should just stop and send all that energy your way until CM3 is done. ;-)

"If having a soul means being able to feel love, loyalty, and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans."

James Herriot (James Alfred "Alfie" Wight), when a human client asked him if animals have souls.  (I don't remember in which book the story originally appeared.)
