Jul. 10th, 2004 09:43 amI'm packing the last of my bits and pieces to go and spend the weekend in a field at a music festival with
war_monger, and would like to give an encouraging hug/manly handshake to all and sundry. I advise you all to make the most of the lull in melodrama hopefully brought about by the absence of Milliway's resident histrionic demon, because I intend to raise hell when I come back (pun fully intended).
This is kind of like what I imagine it must be like for parents who are watching their kid go away for their first sleepover or something.
Drink safely, try not to let my angel pine away, look both ways when crossing the street, and, for my sake, please try to avoid ThreadZillas (ThreadZillae?)*.
*Yes, yes, I know, pot, kettle, black, etc, etc...

oh, another thing.
Jul. 10th, 2004 11:26 amI think I'd better ask, since it might become an issue - are we operating on the same strike-tag rules as the Discworld RPage? (For the uninitiated, that means no one else can read what's crossed out, bar very particular circumstances.)
Thought I'd check before I went around using any. ::grins::

You Know You're Addicted When...
Jul. 10th, 2004 11:48 am...while on vacation, you tell several friends about Milliways, none of whom are in *any* fandoms.
...you see a store called Portico and go "Oooooh! Daddy!"
...while in the New York subway, you keep thinking "London Below!" followed closely by "no, New York. Sad."
...later, you think, "No! there *is* a New York Below, because Hunter killed a crocodile there! r0x0r!"
...you almost buy several different articles of clothing (read: horrible 80s prom dresses) because door would wear them, cut up, over something black and lacy and under her leather jacket.
...while discussing getting henna tattoos, you consider getting one that says "TR/D OTP"
Need I continue?
Other cool things that happened which y'all might care about include: The discovery of a comic book with a shelf containing things written by Neil gaiman that I didn't even know *existed*. And... okay, I won't bother you with any more details of my trip.
tomorrow it's home, at which point I will *not* be able to come into Milliways because of Tom's schedule and our plot ideas, and then down to Richmond, where I won't be in because of lack of computer, and then back home Monday evening, at which point I will fall upon you rabidly, with the force of a thousand suns.
Watch for the next scene in the unfolding Tom Riddle/Door saga then...

Jul. 10th, 2004 04:56 pmQuestion: Can the characters read other characters' journals, or just the Milliways' posts?
Sorry if anyone needed me; I was hit with massive amounts of math. Am just going through everything I missed now... Wow, you guys. [throws chocolate and flowers]
Oh, and Crowley was looking for weak spots? Well, you know the (Biblical) plagues in Egypt? Gabriel executed that, and she feels horribly guilty about it; Crowley would probably know she did it.

Jul. 10th, 2004 09:46 pmAh, just when I think I can go away, here come Tonks and Aziraphale to break my heart into leeetle tiny pieces. You guys have great repartee. Love love love.
A quick question: I have seen Aziraphale and Aziraphael - is this a US/UK book edition difference? Cos for the US edition it's -ale. I just want to make sure I'm spelling it correctly for the Milliways crowd :)

Jul. 10th, 2004 10:31 pmFor those who heard not the tale of my unwedding day...
I awoke this morn' certain that I would wed Lord Benedick and my cousin would marry Lord Claudio. I dressed for my wedding at walked into the sun...
I stood before my lord at the altar and looked into his eyes. And I spoke unto the friar and asked him to hold.
My lord Benedick, you know me well and we are friends. I find I must speak to you now, 'else we make greater fools of ourselves than we have already. We are friends, milord, but we are not more. We have been coerced into this marriage by those who love us well, but know not our hearts. My lord, I would not wish a marriage without love on my deepest enemy, why, then, should I wish it on my dearest friend? Good friend, speak true, dost thou, in thy heart and soul, love me above all others? We have betwixt us affection, but there is not more. Wilt thou not give us both the freedom to live else?
He stared at me and he laughed.
Truly, my lady, you speak with the tongues of men and angels. Let it be known therefore, there is no woman I love so well Lady Beatrice of Messina...
...And I would not have her for all the world. Lady, God give you joy!
And he kissed me and we walked away from the altar together.
As for my cousin, she today wed her Florentine Lord, my her days be blessed with comfort and joy.

Jul. 10th, 2004 11:52 pmWhoa. *looks at Tonks* Tonks and Anthy are having rather opposite reactions to Aziraphale. Perfect mirror image!
Paul is making me cringe and wibble and argh. I tip my hat in a frightened sort of way to his player.
ETA: *has overdosed on symbolism, is dead* Roses, mirrors, drowning, aieee my poor brain.
