May 06 19:20:28 <jemler>   hi kk
May 06 19:20:29 <kirienne>   Hi KK
May 06 19:20:31 <Evie>   hi, KK
May 06 19:20:32 <the_Bee>   hi kk!
May 06 19:20:35 <Shiral>   Hello Katherine
May 06 19:20:36 <DesertRose>   Hi KK!
May 06 19:20:36 <BalanceTheEnergies>   Hello KK.
May 06 19:20:39 <Jerusha>   Hi kk!
May 06 19:20:47 *   Shiral claps hands with glee that my Author trap worked
May 06 19:20:50 <KK>   Sorry I'm late.  I was ctching up on Evie's latest adventures.
May 06 19:20:56 <Evie>   LOL!  *blush*
May 06 19:21:03 *   jojo has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
May 06 19:21:11 <KK>   BTW, I like that last Alaric.
May 06 19:21:26 <jemler>   Duncan and Evie: Star crossed?
May 06 19:21:34 <Evie>   Maybe I should send you a reminder email an hour out to check the forum BEFORE chat time? :D
May 06 19:21:35 <kirienne>   oh, I'll have to go look again. I looked thru it all the other night.
May 06 19:21:45 <Evie>   The rooted hair one?
May 06 19:21:50 <KK>   Yes.
May 06 19:21:53 <Shiral>   Well, if there are any bodies that get ruined, we could always impale them in front of the Hagios
May 06 19:21:54 *   jojo3 (Mibbit@45386A.7BC17F.78E877.3AA4D2) has joined #deryni_destinations
May 06 19:22:03 <jemler>   3 jojos?!
May 06 19:22:08 <kirienne>   oooh, I haven't seen rooted hair Alaric, I must look later. :-)
May 06 19:22:10 <KK>   True.  And the Hagios turned out great too, Shiral.
May 06 19:22:20 <kirienne>   LOL, Shiral
May 06 19:22:28 <Evie>   Ah.  Good deal, then; he's also going to be a little easier to turn into someone who looks halfway like Annie and Alkari's dream Alaric actor casting. :D
May 06 19:22:33 <Shiral>   I'm pretty pleased with it. It's sitting on my coffee table now
May 06 19:22:34 <kirienne>   I love the Hagois, Shiral
May 06 19:23:00 <the_Bee>   Do you have the link handy?
May 06 19:23:02 <Evie>   And your cats haven't tried to sit on it, Shiral? Your cats must be well behaved
May 06 19:23:03 <Shiral>   The cats leave it pretty much undisturbed, luckily
May 06 19:23:30 <Shiral>    It's not really a surface that invites cat seating
May 06 19:23:38 <Evie>   and the Hagios turned out VERY lovely indeed.  I love the blue and gold together. (Doesn't hurt that those are our SCA household colors!)
May 06 19:23:39 <Shiral>   Just as sec, Bee
May 06 19:23:54 <Alkari>   Hi KK.   
May 06 19:24:03 <the_Bee>   It doesn't move so they can chase it, and it doesn't smell yummy.
May 06 19:24:04 <Evie>   KK, that's your gray silk I used for Alaric's shirt
May 06 19:24:11 <Evie>   in case you didn't recognize it
May 06 19:24:22 <Evie>   It was a major pain to hand sew, but I love how it turned out.
May 06 19:24:25 <Shiral>   https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Nzxx-qYV9w37W-GTNqg3E2QWjoY1IljijgI_BKvQuOM/edit?pli=1#slide=id.g11147905_0_0
May 06 19:24:28 <Jerusha>   Blue and gold is also Marley, isn't it?
May 06 19:24:37 <Evie>   yes it is, Jerusha
May 06 19:24:49 <Shiral>   And I've stopped fiddling with it, so they don't have to compete with it for attention
May 06 19:24:58 <kirienne>   LOL
May 06 19:25:04 <Alkari>   Maybe the darker blond one could be changed into an adult Brendan  :D
May 06 19:25:09 <Evie>   yes, try painting doll heads or hand sewing with a kitty nose in  your way!
May 06 19:25:28 <Shiral>   Although Dmitri jumped up on my desk to land in my wet paint Palette and spilled my almost full mug of tea all over the rug, last night!
May 06 19:25:28 <Alkari>   Kitty hairs are SO helpful on fresh paint!
May 06 19:25:57 <BalanceTheEnergies>   I can't type or use my mouse without a feline nose intervening sometimes, much less do anything that skilled.
May 06 19:26:01 <Jerusha>   I think it's called "texturinzing"
May 06 19:26:07 <Shiral>   If it doesn't have at least one cat hair embedded in it, that painting is a Forged Houle!
May 06 19:26:08 <jemler>   shades of Pepe Le Pew!
May 06 19:26:08 <kirienne>   LOL
May 06 19:26:29 <Alkari>   LOL - art historians take note for forgeries
May 06 19:26:32 <Evie>   KK, given that I can't find a medium haired brown figure with a nice face that doesn't cost a mint, if I had to steer towards a sandy almost-blond brown or a dark brown for Duncan, which direction would you prefer for me to steer?
May 06 19:26:55 <BalanceTheEnergies>   lol. I told a colleague I caouldn't get a laptop cumputer because His Lordship would be jealous and knock it off my lap.
May 06 19:26:56 <KK>   Sandy almost blond, I think.
May 06 19:26:58 <Evie>   he landed IN the paint palette?  Oops!  Pawprints?
May 06 19:27:19 <Shiral>   My cats are very curious about my iPad.  Dmitri thinks it's a cat Bunwarmer
May 06 19:27:25 <DesertRose>   Oh, but dark brown hair and blue eyes is such a striking look.  :D
May 06 19:27:34 <Shiral>   Yup
May 06 19:27:42 <Evie>   OK.  Because the replacement Duncan I have has hair just a tiny bit darker than the one you like for Alaric, but only barely darker.
May 06 19:27:44 <Shiral>   Thank goodness it's waterbased paint
May 06 19:27:46 <jemler>   he's probably looking for the mouse!
May 06 19:27:57 <DesertRose>   LOL, yeah, Shiral.  :D
May 06 19:28:10 <Alkari>   Probably easier to tint it slightly darker than blond it
May 06 19:28:28 <KK>   That should still work.
May 06 19:28:32 <Shiral>   He immediately realized Mama didn't want him in her paint palette AND that his paws were wet and fled
May 06 19:28:43 <Evie>   I might end up getting a Fashionista Ryan anyway, DR, because I love the test head with the dark hair and blue (well, now they're grey) eyes.  He might get turned into Sextus Arilan instead.
May 06 19:28:53 <Shiral>   Helpfully  knocking over my tea
May 06 19:29:03 <DesertRose>   :D
May 06 19:29:05 <Jerusha>   The tea washed out the paw prints?
May 06 19:29:12 <KK>   Shiral, that link you sent didn't work.
May 06 19:29:13 <Evie>   Alkari, given that there's no safe way to tint the hair, I'm going to just leave it be.
May 06 19:29:19 <BalanceTheEnergies>   Yeah, Wimsey shorted out my last keyboard that way.
May 06 19:29:21 <Shiral>   Oops, Let me try again
May 06 19:29:29 <Evie>   rather than risk another debacle like what happened to Duncan's first head
May 06 19:29:33 <Shiral>   Luckily, there were no electronics harmed
May 06 19:29:41 <the_Bee>   I hope it wasn't lead paint, Shiral.  He might get sick licking it off.
May 06 19:30:04 <KK>   And no more trips inside the bag of doom, that puts black smudges on faces and makes puppy noses.
May 06 19:30:08 <Shiral>   https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Nzxx-qYV9w37W-GTNqg3E2QWjoY1IljijgI_BKvQuOM/edit?pli=1#slide=id.p
May 06 19:30:15 <Alkari>   LOL @ bag of doom.
May 06 19:30:17 <Evie>   maybe if i get skilled enough eventually, I'll try a new head re-rooted with a medium brown, but that's beyond my present capabilities
May 06 19:30:36 <Shiral>   He seems fine and was screaming for his breakfast as always this morning, Bee
May 06 19:30:41 <Evie>   I used the "bag of doom" yesterday to bring candy into the movie theatre, and even then I checked it for smudges. ;-)
May 06 19:30:57 <kirienne>   Heee heee
May 06 19:31:02 <Shiral>   The link should work, now
May 06 19:31:25 <Evie>   btw, The Avengers is a very fun movie, if you've not seen it yet
May 06 19:31:26 <the_Bee>   Both links worked, diffferent pages.
May 06 19:31:26 <KK>   Nada.
May 06 19:31:42 <the_Bee>   "Bag of Doom"?
May 06 19:31:48 <Shiral>   KK, are Alaric and Brion still in Llannedd
May 06 19:31:51 <Evie>   Joss Whedon did the script, so the dialogue and character interaction is great and quite often laugh out loud funny
May 06 19:31:57 <kirienne>   When my budget will allow, and I have a free weekend to go to a matinee, i plan to see Avengers
May 06 19:32:00 <KK>   The black-lined bag that smudged Duncan.
May 06 19:32:05 <Shiral>   That's odd, I just tested it...
May 06 19:32:10 <the_Bee>   ah.
May 06 19:32:58 <Shiral>   If necessary, I'll email you the link after chat, KK
May 06 19:33:19 <DesertRose>   Shiral and Evie, if I made a gallery on RC.com for fan projects like the Hagios and the cast-of-thousands action figure collection, would y'all be willing to post your pics there, or is it easier to go on the way we've been?
May 06 19:33:21 <KK>   OK, I got a hat log that time.
May 06 19:33:22 <Evie>   I'll be glad to see a bit of Llannedd
May 06 19:33:43 <Evie>   DR, I have over a hundred photos in the project thread, I think
May 06 19:33:50 <DesertRose>   Holy cow. Okay.
May 06 19:33:51 <the_Bee>   stetson hat or bowler hat?
May 06 19:33:54 <Evie>   and most are hosted on Flickr but not all
May 06 19:33:56 <Shiral>   The only concern I'd have is bandwidth, DR
May 06 19:34:03 <KK>   chat log, not hat log--though hats could be interesting.
May 06 19:34:03 <Shiral>   But I could put up select photos
May 06 19:34:07 <DesertRose>   Oh yeah, okay.  Then I'll leave well enough alone.
May 06 19:34:43 <Shiral>   Evie would have to be in charge of the Hat log
May 06 19:34:49 <Evie>   LOL!  DD went crazy over the tiny fedora that came with mini-Alaric and snarfed it up.  She loves fedoras.
May 06 19:35:17 <the_Bee>   She ATE it??
May 06 19:35:17 <Alkari>   Alaric in a fedora?  mind boggles  :D
May 06 19:35:19 <DesertRose>   If you wanted to put up a couple of pics of the finished Hagios from a couple of different angles, the Fan Art gallery might be a good place.
May 06 19:35:22 <Jerusha>   I was trying to figure out how the fedora would work in Coroth
May 06 19:35:27 <kirienne>   Well, it's being put to good use then as I can't picture Alaric wearing a fedora.
May 06 19:35:28 <Shiral>   This is true
May 06 19:35:44 <Evie>   I could make some teeny tiny little hats.  Duncan already has a Viking hat that might be converted into the cap of maintenance he's wearing in QFSC when Dhugal is knighted
May 06 19:35:49 <BalanceTheEnergies>   She's not alone. I have a Panama hat and a couple of driving caps.
May 06 19:35:55 <Shiral>   I've had a busy week.  And I'm having a show of my miniature houses at my mother's house in two weeks
May 06 19:35:57 <Evie>   wool cap with fur brim
May 06 19:35:57 <Alkari>   AAlaric needs a helmet
May 06 19:35:59 <DesertRose>   Because the Google Docs presentation gums up my computer, for one, and KK seems to be having trouble with it as well.
May 06 19:36:23 <Evie>   oh cool, Shiral!
May 06 19:36:29 <DesertRose>   Oh, cool.  Well, no rush, just when you get a chance, that might be a good place for a couple of nice pics.
May 06 19:36:32 <kirienne>   that's great Shiral, How exciting for you .
May 06 19:36:33 <Shiral>   I'll see about putting up some photos of the Hagios, Bee, but  it may not happen right away
May 06 19:36:54 <Shiral>   It turns out that over the last decade, I've mad a lot of little houses
May 06 19:36:54 <Evie>   Alaric will get a helmet as soon as I manage to get around to spray painting half a plastic easter egg and putting a posterboard nasal on it. :D
May 06 19:37:08 <the_Bee>   okay, I'll see what you do put up.
May 06 19:37:20 <DesertRose>   And if Evie ever comes to an end of the action figure project, maybe she could post a couple of pics there as well, of various figures in their go-to-meetin' best.  :D
May 06 19:37:25 <Shiral>   MADE. Although it's also somewhat mad of me, I guess. Since they have very little purpose or use after they're finished
May 06 19:37:50 <Jerusha>   Art is a reward in itself.
May 06 19:37:55 <Evie>   That would be more doable, DR.  The "work in progress" thread and a separate "finished project' gallery showing only the highlights
May 06 19:38:03 <DesertRose>   Yeah.
May 06 19:38:12 <Shiral>   Yes, but storing real estate in your closet takes up a lot of shelf space!
May 06 19:38:20 <kirienne>   LOL
May 06 19:38:27 <DesertRose>   LOL, Shiral.
May 06 19:38:28 <Evie>   I have to do my art in 3D since I'm hopeless at just drawing or painting.
May 06 19:38:29 <Alkari>   But less costly than buying the real stuff  :D
May 06 19:38:33 <jemler>   you could put a piucture of me as a 'work in progress'! :)
May 06 19:38:38 <Jerusha>   I still have all of my son's ninja lego castles on a closet shelf.
May 06 19:39:06 <the_Bee>   and how old is your son now, Jerusha?
May 06 19:39:41 <Jerusha>   The youngest is 25.  The oldest is the same age as Morgan in DR, but only for another two weeks.
May 06 19:39:58 <Shiral>   KK, how are Alaric and Brion faring in Llannedd?
May 06 19:39:58 <KK>   We still have numerous boxes of Legos in our attic.  It was an early bonding-ritual with Cameron.
May 06 19:40:23 <Jerusha>   Lego is almost a rite of passage.
May 06 19:40:47 <KK>   THey're deciding whethr it's important to get right back to Rhemuth, but given that the election will probably take a while, I don't think they'll go immediately.
May 06 19:41:05 <Evie>   My best friend  from high school still has something like 16 plastic totes filled with LEGO blocks and figures, and he's 46.  Some boys don't outgrow their toys. :)
May 06 19:41:07 <the_Bee>   In my day it was Lincoln Logs and Erector Sets.
May 06 19:41:13 <Alkari>   which election is that KK?
May 06 19:41:21 <Evie>   Not that I'm one to talk  about outgrowing toys. :D
May 06 19:41:23 <jemler>   what about tinker toys?
May 06 19:41:31 <the_Bee>   those too
May 06 19:41:39 <jemler>   spirograph
May 06 19:41:40 <Alkari>   In my day we had Meccano and pre-Lego bloc ks
May 06 19:41:41 <Shiral>   Blocks and hot wheels were the hot items in our family
May 06 19:41:48 <jemler>   etch-a-sketch
May 06 19:41:51 <Shiral>   And Legos, too
May 06 19:42:02 <jemler>   lkincon logs
May 06 19:42:02 <Evie>   KK, is this before or after Dowager Queen Richeldis moves back to Llannedd permanently?
May 06 19:42:08 <jemler>   lincoln logsd
May 06 19:42:21 <KK>   Election of new Archbishop.
May 06 19:42:32 <Alkari>   Thanks - OK.
May 06 19:42:33 <jojo3>   grandson captured daughter's stash to add to his own...he's 8
May 06 19:42:35 <BalanceTheEnergies>   Valoret?
May 06 19:42:48 *   jojo3 has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
May 06 19:42:55 <Alkari>   I don't imagine Brion or Alaric will be too happy at the outcome  :(
May 06 19:43:03 <BalanceTheEnergies>   or Rhemuth?
May 06 19:43:05 <the_Bee>   Someone is out to get jojo.
May 06 19:43:10 <Jerusha>   Is it de Nore that wins?
May 06 19:43:19 <KK>   Before.  An she doesn't make the move as early as Rob speculated that she did.
May 06 19:43:21 <Shiral>   DeNore is after Jojo?
May 06 19:43:21 <Alkari>   Poor Alaric.
May 06 19:43:33 <jemler>   poor jojo!
May 06 19:43:38 <Evie>   OK
May 06 19:43:43 *   jojo4android (Mibbit@45386A.7BC17F.CC1E66.0CD564) has joined #deryni_destinations
May 06 19:43:46 <KK>   Yes, de Nore wins.
May 06 19:43:49 <Shiral>   On the other hand, Alaric does have Brion and Nigel in his corner
May 06 19:43:51 <Alkari>   just use a good Deryni spell jo jo
May 06 19:43:56 <jemler>   jojo's gonw bionic!
May 06 19:44:12 <Evie>   are they still in Pwyllheli (and did I remember the capital city right?  I wrote it into a fanfic, but that was months ago).
May 06 19:44:13 <Alkari>   Yes, but Brion and Nigel still have to tread very warily
May 06 19:44:27 <Alkari>   I'd love to see more of ALaric and Nigel and their obvious friendship
May 06 19:44:35 <kirienne>   me too
May 06 19:44:37 <Jerusha>   Me too
May 06 19:44:38 <Evie>   jojo, here's some duct tape so you can tape yourself to a chair and stop getting bounced out of the room
May 06 19:44:40 <Shiral>   Still, a King and a Prince of the realm--that's what I call friends in High Places
May 06 19:44:41 <the_Bee>   me 3
May 06 19:45:02 *   Shiral wants more Brion
May 06 19:45:14 *   kirienne always wants more Alaric
May 06 19:45:16 <Alkari>   Well, Alaric had a king and a prince in DR and DC - still ran into problems with the church  :D
May 06 19:45:18 <Shiral>   But I'm really not demanding at all
May 06 19:45:21 *   the_Bee wants more Bronwyn.
May 06 19:45:33 <KK>   Yes, they've just gotten the news from Duke RIchard.
May 06 19:45:35 <Jerusha>   I want it all!
May 06 19:45:36 *   Evie always wants more Duncan, but will settle for more Brion and Alaric
May 06 19:45:37 <Alkari>   Yes, just More Alaric will be good  :)
May 06 19:46:00 <Shiral>   Well, Alaric insists on being Alaric, and he has a very limited tolerance for religious fanaticism
May 06 19:46:05 <Jerusha>   There is no such thing as too much Alaric
May 06 19:46:07 <Evie>   Ooh, more Richard would work too.
May 06 19:46:15 <Alkari>   Yes!!
May 06 19:46:20 <Shiral>   Unless you're Jehana, Jerusha
May 06 19:46:23 <Evie>   really curious about Richard. 
May 06 19:46:25 <Shiral>   Oops
May 06 19:46:26 <kirienne>   I think I have that same low tolerance, LOL
May 06 19:46:46 <Shiral>   More Richard? Yes that would work.  We need more Haldanes
May 06 19:46:52 <Alkari>   Real fanatics of any persuasion worry me
May 06 19:47:02 <Shiral>   Too right, Alkari
May 06 19:47:09 <the_Bee>   Hubert was a fake fanatic.
May 06 19:47:11 <kirienne>   yep
May 06 19:47:28 <BalanceTheEnergies>   Yeah, my boss told me last summer she and her wife have their passports ready, just in case.
May 06 19:47:35 <Shiral>   Hubert was nasty all the way around. And it took a lot of steps to get around him!
May 06 19:47:42 <jemler>   LOL!
May 06 19:47:53 <Alkari>   KK, are we going to see any of the good churchmen on Alaric's side - you one mentioned that he did have some who weren't ready to burn him alive
May 06 19:48:00 <jemler>   That's a lot of nasty!
May 06 19:48:11 <Shiral>   Tolliver always seemed like a decent man, to me
May 06 19:48:11 <jemler>   Duncan.
May 06 19:48:14 <Alkari>   It seems he has been lucky with the bishops in Coroth
May 06 19:48:32 <Alkari>   And the one before Tolliver?   Hudriod du Mollard, wasn't it?
May 06 19:48:58 <KK>   Yeah, his own bishops in Coroth are fairly flexible.
May 06 19:49:02 <Jerusha>   Would a duke have any say over the bishop elected to his duchy?
May 06 19:49:11 <Shiral>   It causes SO many problems if the Bishop wants to burn the Duke! Especially when said Duke is the first male heir in 4 generations
May 06 19:49:13 <KK>   Nope.  It's up to the Synod.
May 06 19:49:21 <BalanceTheEnergies>   The Churchmen are also politicians. They respect Donal's wish to have a Deryni bulwark against Torenth and not push too hard.
May 06 19:49:22 <jemler>   re-read the bishop's heir.
May 06 19:49:31 <jemler>   in '
May 06 19:49:55 <KK>   The king doesn't even really have a say about who's elected.
May 06 19:49:56 <Shiral>   Kelson at least has a better Synod to work with than his father did
May 06 19:50:03 <jemler>   in TBH, they said the bishop in Cassan would have to go along with his new dukes choice for bishop of Ratharkin.
May 06 19:50:08 <Alkari>   So did the Synod intentionally elect more moderates for Coroth?
May 06 19:50:10 <KK>   Maybe.
May 06 19:50:37 <KK>   They kind of had to, since Corwyn's duke has always been Deryni.
May 06 19:50:54 <Evie>   or at least bishops who wouldn't run screaming for the hills when told that they'd be sent to Corwyn. ;-)
May 06 19:50:55 <Shiral>   Although Kelson was pretty decisive in getting rid of Loris. =o) But when you joined an armed rebellion against the King it weakens one's authority as Primate
May 06 19:51:01 <Alkari>   You also indicated that Coroth's See had a lttle more autonomy
May 06 19:51:07 <DesertRose>   LOL, yeah, Shiral.
May 06 19:51:21 <Shiral>   I keep wanting to hand Loris a banana...
May 06 19:51:24 <the_Bee>   IIRC the Regents interfered with the synod's choice in Camber the Heretic.
May 06 19:51:42 <Alkari>   I keep wanting to send Loris a crossbow bolt to the heart!!!
May 06 19:51:44 <KK>   Pressure can always be brought to bear.
May 06 19:51:44 <Jerusha>   The Regents interferred with everything.
May 06 19:51:48 <Shiral>   Yes, but they were thoroughly corrupt and were pushing for Hubert the whole time
May 06 19:51:50 <jemler>   i'd prefer to give him a po'd wolverine!
May 06 19:51:52 <DesertRose>   Yes, they did, Bee, because the Synod chose Alister Cullen (Camber), and they wanted Hubert.
May 06 19:51:56 <kirienne>   Alkari, I agree
May 06 19:52:02 <BalanceTheEnergies>   Corwyn seems like a bit of a special case. Didn't it join the kingdom after some of the Laws of Ramos were eased a bit/
May 06 19:52:11 <Shiral>   Or a Po'd Wolf Pack, Jemler
May 06 19:52:18 <the_Bee>   and Rhys got killed.
May 06 19:52:41 <Jerusha>   *sigh* poor Rhys.
May 06 19:52:48 *   Evie wonders what action figure could be converted into a Hubert.  Jabba the Hutt, maybe? ;-)
May 06 19:52:52 <Alkari>   though Rhy's death was an accident from hitting his head.
May 06 19:52:54 <KK>   The Laws of Ramos just weren't enforced as stringently in Corwyn, since its duke was Deryni.
May 06 19:52:54 <kirienne>   LOL
May 06 19:53:02 <DesertRose>   I almost threw the book when Rhys died.  I was so upset.
May 06 19:53:06 <the_Bee>   Weren't Corwyn and Cartmoor originally Mooryn?
May 06 19:53:10 <Jerusha>   Yes
May 06 19:53:12 <jemler>   yes
May 06 19:53:12 <KK>   Yes.
May 06 19:53:16 <Shiral>   Just wrap a lot of ace bandage around a regular one, Evie
May 06 19:53:26 <Shiral>   Or else, get yourself a toy Michelin Man!
May 06 19:53:36 <Evie>   there's actually an action figure fat suit, Shiral. I kid you not. :D
May 06 19:53:42 <Alkari>   LOL
May 06 19:53:44 <the_Bee>   But without the coup there wouldn't have been blood on the floor for /rhys to slip in.
May 06 19:53:45 <KK>   I suppose one could make him a little at suit.
May 06 19:53:59 <Shiral>   I bow to your expertise, Evie =o) You've done the research, after all
May 06 19:54:00 <KK>   fat suit.
May 06 19:54:10 <jemler>   you mean a big fat suit, don't you?
May 06 19:54:14 <DesertRose>   Here's a question.  Why do you WANT a Hubert figure?  To burn in effigy?
May 06 19:54:30 <Shiral>   But why woud you WANT a toy Hubert unless you built him a toy cell?
May 06 19:54:36 <Evie>   not that I'm going to make a Hubert, but if I did, I'd make the fat suit myself. It would be MUCH cheaper.
May 06 19:54:38 <jemler>   a guy that big? you could roast marshmallows for days!
May 06 19:54:39 <Alkari>   She could do Hubert candles, and burn them
May 06 19:54:46 <KK>   He was just so slimy....
May 06 19:54:49 <Jerusha>   At both ends.
May 06 19:54:54 <Evie>   LOL
May 06 19:55:06 <Alkari>   No, that gets messy, Jerusha !
May 06 19:55:13 <Shiral>   Ew....
May 06 19:55:15 <Alkari>   Candlewax on carpets can be a pain ...
May 06 19:55:29 <jemler>   make a Hubert doll, and reassign him to Torenth!
May 06 19:55:35 <Evie>   LOL
May 06 19:55:40 <kirienne>   :-)
May 06 19:55:41 <DesertRose>   Hubert deserves a messy end.  I thought he got off way too easily, dying of what was probably a heart attack in a monastery at the back of beyond.
May 06 19:55:42 <Shiral>   Well, Hubert did slim down in captivity, but he would be loathesome at any size
May 06 19:55:45 <Alkari>   You could do a lince in ecclesiasticl candles - Loris, Hubert, Corrigan, Gorony ...
May 06 19:55:49 <Alkari>   * line
May 06 19:55:52 <BalanceTheEnergies>   Before I forgetKK, I wanted to ask you if Vivienne was related to Denis Arilan's unfortunate classmate at seminary?
May 06 19:56:07 *   Kelric (~IceChat9@OWIRCN-a16c8e76.il.comcast.net) has joined #deryni_destinations
May 06 19:56:12 <jemler>   hi kelric
May 06 19:56:12 <Shiral>   Hi Kelric
May 06 19:56:13 <Alkari>   Hi Kelric
May 06 19:56:13 <the_Bee>   hi kelric
May 06 19:56:20 <DesertRose>   Hi Kelric.
May 06 19:56:21 <kirienne>   hi Kelric
May 06 19:56:22 <Jerusha>   Hi Kelfic!
May 06 19:56:23 <BalanceTheEnergies>   Hello Kelric
May 06 19:56:25 <Kelric>   hi
May 06 19:56:28 *   Evie waves
May 06 19:56:31 <Jerusha>   Kelric
May 06 19:56:32 <Shiral>   I think that Christopher Lee would make a good Loris
May 06 19:56:37 <Kelric>   heh.
May 06 19:56:43 <Alkari>   too old?
May 06 19:56:44 <kirienne>   ooh, yes, Shiral
May 06 19:56:49 <Shiral>   Probably
May 06 19:56:51 <jemler>   he was probably distantly related to MIchon de Courcy, and Etienne de Courcy
May 06 19:56:55 *   Kelric just got back from watching The Avengers for the second time this weeekend ;)
May 06 19:56:59 <BalanceTheEnergies>   Bill Nighy or Patrick Malahide?
May 06 19:57:12 <Shiral>   But I was watching Ivanhoe, and he played the Head Templar just as I imagine Loris
May 06 19:57:15 <Alkari>   Patrick
May 06 19:57:17 <DesertRose>   He's awfully spry for his age, but he would do a good job of it.  C. Lee has always done an excellent villain.
May 06 19:57:36 <Alkari>   Patrick Malahide is wonderful
May 06 19:57:52 <Alkari>   Though the one who would REALLY do a chilling Loris is Charles Dance
May 06 19:57:55 <Shiral>   Bill Nighy might work, too
May 06 19:58:08 <Shiral>   Oh MY, Alkari that's genius!
May 06 19:58:12 <jemler>   tywin lannister
May 06 19:58:18 <Jerusha>   Must go - time for Once Upon a Time
May 06 19:58:23 <Shiral>   Imagine HIM standing over Duncan
May 06 19:58:26 <BalanceTheEnergies>   Yeah, his bullying father in Billy Elliot , and his Sir Fancis Walsingham in the H Mirren EII biopic.
May 06 19:58:28 <Alkari>   Yes - he can do so much with just a look
May 06 19:58:52 <the_Bee>   7:59, KK

May 06 19:59:05 <BalanceTheEnergies>   Sprry, Wimsey is putting his paw on my hands as i type.
May 06 19:59:11 <Evie>   lol
May 06 19:59:15 <jemler>   Aiden Gillen (Littlefinger) as Derry
May 06 19:59:25 <Alkari>   No - not really
May 06 19:59:39 <jemler>   you're right. too old.
May 06 19:59:46 <Evie>   Luke was sitting over my hands while I tried to finish the final chapter of Visionaries earlier, but he's moved on to pestering DH as he hangs shelves in DD's room

"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.)
