Elizabeth might be too busy, but I'll bet you her treecat's not. Throw in Nimitz, Samantha, Sharp Claw, Springs From Above, Lurks in Branches, and all the other 'cats involved with the GA leadership, and...

On that note, somebody had better teach the cats some...diplomacy, or there'll be lots of signing...

I hate to say it, but certain characters would need the situation spelled out that bluntly... looking at you, Augustus Khumalo!!

My niece can sign and was considering going to Honor Con as a treecat until my sister stated that not many more people would probably be able to sign or read sign and that she'd have to sign the entire time because treecats can't suddenly decide to speak. There went the treecat uniform idea. My sister will wear a Grayson style gown. Tierney refuses to consider anything else but RMN. I can't wear my usual suits because they said I'd look like a diplomat...i.e. Houseman.

So many characters we won't see in the movie. No Estelle and Honor chemistry. Drats!

Oh my. Honor is going to have hugging moments in the movie, where her height, or lack thereof, will be obvious. Movie magic?

Let's see if the actress can pull-off a reluctant hug.

Don't count her out yet! Apparently the movie's planned to have flashbacks to OBS. I still have hope!!

Flashbacks to OBS? Really? Where'd you come by that? Is it certain?

Rose,
What on Earth err Manticore are you going to do if the movie tarnishes the personality of one or more of your babies? Or if chemistry reacts between two unwanted characters?

By the way. Thanks for your advice.

(Good luck with the in-laws! Here's some advice: nod, smile, give your opinion when asked, and otherwise keep your mouth shut and do whatever Gemma wants. Your job is to show up at the altar, look very impressed by the dress, and say the appropriate words. This is passed on not-quite-verbatim from my dad, who twenty-five years on seems to have had a bit of success with the whole 'marriage' thing. )

Does Gemma have a twin? Almost exactly what she said. With a little "show your teeth a lot. Make sure you subtly comment on my mums attire."

How do you subtly comment?

Almost a week left. They are out shopping now. They hardly brought anything with them from England, but are going to take the entire mall back. In one big huge export!

Cry a lot. But hopefully with RFC involved the personalities won't be tarnished too much. *crosses fingers*

As to the other... with the exception of "Javier and Eloise with anyone but each other" and "Augustus and Estelle with anyone but each other", I don't have unwanted characters as far as chemistry goes. Oh, the possibilities!!

Not a twin, but perhaps a much younger sister. No wonder you're marrying her. She sounds like an eminently sensible and intelligent person. All the more reason to stay out of her way and let her handle things!

I've found you can't go wrong with, "You look lovely tonight, X." (But you might make a discreet enquiry to Gemma as to whether or not "ma'am" is acceptable...) If in doubt, have her tell you what to say.

Ah, shopping. When I was younger, my mom and I had to bring an extra suitcase on vacations just to fit everything we bought... and we were shopping in moderation!!

A Rising Thubder

Pritchart smiled tartly, but the unfortunate truth was that Herlander Simões really was a male version of Shannon Foraker…

I say again, Herlander and Shannon are perfect for each other. They'd give a new meaning to power couple.

I always wondered who 'The Brain's' parents were.

Allen Higgins.

Because everyone needs to hook up with Allen Higgins. Especially but not limited to me.

....wait. What about Warner Caslet and Allen Higgins??

Oh, you're so
