The Die-Hards are going to be having Thanksgiving dinner on Monday
evening.
By the time everyone had put in their own ideas for the menu, it turned
out that--if we made the lot--we'd have far more than we could ever eat
ourselves. So the suggestion has been made that we invite everyone else.
If you want to come to dinner, please contact me. If you want to bring a
favourite family recipe--make sure to say so! A few words about yourself
would also be helpful.
Please, as Don put it, "No tricks, attacks, or traps...just a lot of good
food and camaraderie." After all, it is Thanksgiving.

Subject: WAR: Missing a couple days of posts
I was sick for a few days and forgot to save the Warposts. Would one kind
soul mind forwarding everything from War: Knighties: LaCroix's Dream Curse
to War: tales of a wandering Merc, or Hey, a guitar!
Thanks.

I need to borrow Sydney on the 7th, returning him at some point on the 8th.
Does anyone have any conflicts?

Subject: WAR: Dropping Out
Sorry if it inconveniences anyone, but I've decided to drop out of
playing the war. I'm not enjoying myself, and there are some posts
being made that have really been bothering me. On top of that, despite
the fact I tried to clear my schedule for two weeks for this, where are
things in my life that are falling apart without me and I really need to
give them my attention. So yeah, I think it's just for the best if I
stop playing.

Subject: WAR: KNIGHTIES: Summary for Oct. 10
Summary for Oct. 10:
1) Title: The Hurl of Sandwich
Author: Knightie Nat and Cousin Shelley
Faction: Knighties
Date: BACKDATED to Oct. 5
Time: Mid-Afternoon; after "Cousins: Cousins Will Be Cousins"
Disclaimers: All participants and story clips used with permission.
At the urging of Cousin Arletta, Cousin Shelley (who currently thinks
she's a Knightie) makes sandwiches for the Knighties filled with a
list of ingredients designed NOT to mix well. But, it turns out that
Co-Leader Nat actually *liked* the "toxic" and "vile" food prepared
by Shelley. The other Knighties gag on the sandwiches and think that
Nat might be a bit crazy for this early in the war.
2) Title: A Pirate's Life for Me
Author: Eowyn
Date: October 10, 2010
Time: Early Morning, Still Dark
Dread Pirate Queen Eowyn is awakened by the sound of an Annoy-a-Tron
to find her thigh-high pirate boots missing, along with the clothes
of her alter-ego, a "lubber wench." She quietly (so as not to awaken
the other Knighties) begins to search the loft for the lubber-wench's
clothes and finds the Annoy-a-Tron that woke her up in the linen
closet. The noise the thing was making reminded her of a bird -- she
needed a parrot (and an eye patch, a sword, a head bandanna, and gold
necklaces)! A prickle in her mind reminded her of a Knight's Guild
Costume Shoppe (run by the Mercs). She emails the shop and gets her
answer -- yes, but it will cost in chocolate. She finds Nick's credit
card in the hand of sleeping Knightie Leader Nat, and swipes it to go
shopping at L'Amour du Chocolat. As she came out of the shop, she
bumped into Nick who whammied her into giving back the credit card.
She then took a cab to the costume shop, where she was allowed inside....
3) Title: The Dream Curse Strikes Back
Author: Knightie Katrinka
Time: Morning of the 9th of October
Something very strange was going on ... Gemsong tells Katrinka that
she's had another dream curse. She is now Dr. Poo (think
"Winnie-the-Pooh", since Gem is dressed as a bear, and "Doctor Who").
She was also a Time Poo and had a Taste'um (think TARDIS) in which to
travel through time. Gem, as "Dr. Poo," mistakes Katrinka's dog,
Rani, for an evil villain. But Rani only wags her tail happily. In
Gem's mind there is only one thing to do, run up and down corridors;
and so she drags Katrinka with her up and down the upstairs hallway
of the loft, followed by the happy, playful puppy.
4) Title: Taking Rani For A Walk
Author: Knightie Katrinka
Timing: Sometime on Oct. 9th after Revenge of the Dream Curse
(aka--The Dream Curse Strikes Back)
Katrinka was still angsting over Vachon's message for Nick. She
wanted Gemsong to help her get the word out, but Gem was busy being
"Time Poo," and Kat couldn't trust her at the moment. But despite
that, she still had to take Rani out for a walk. She passed a strip
mall, where she spotted other factions shopping and overheard
disparaging remarks, this time by the Dark Perks, about her attire
and about her dog. She stopped and put several Knighties Rule!
stickers on their car. A group from the NNPack also arrived and
greeted Katrinka. She thought about putting stickers on their car
too, but decided against it since the NNPack were friends to Nick and
the Knighties. She spotted a Vaquera shopping and tried to pass along
Vachon's message that he was all right, but the woman wouldn't
believe her, stating that Vachon was missing and Katrinka couldn't
have seen him. Frustrated, she plastered the Vaquera's car with
stickers and then quickly left. She didn't want to get arrested for vandalism!
5) Title: Doctor Poo and The Bitter Coffee Battle
Author: Knightie Katrinka
Time: October 9th, sometime after Taking Rani For A Walk
Doctor Poo, aka Gemsong, was brooding over "the Rani," whom she
considered a villain, but everyone else said was just a friendly pup.
Katrinka approaches her and asks about her new attire. "Doctor Poo"
had changed her scarf for red suspenders, a bow tie, and a fez.
Doctor Poo asks Kat to go to the kitchen and "fry me something" to
eat. Kat explains that she's not allowed to cook. Nat comes
downstairs and searches the kitchen for anything containing caffeine,
since she started drinking the Canadian Diet Mountain Dew, with no
caffeine, she'd been extra cranky. Doctor Poo wanted her Taste-um and
her honey back, thinking "the Rani" had taken them. Poo and Nat get
into a fight over who needed their "fix" more. Katrinka slipped out
of the loft. A half an hour later, the two are still fighting when
Kat returns from Rene's with a 'super duper largest extra caffeine
coffee' and extra large honey buns for the combatants. Satisfied, the
two go their separate ways to enjoy their treats and the fight was forgotten.

Subject: Re: Rest well, Susan
I was going through some boxes of personal memorabilia and came across a
present Susan gave me the summer after the first FK War; it was a Rabbit in
soldiers' fatigues with a 1 star generals hat as a reminder of my days as
Big-Wig. It's now in my office on my shelf of personal achievements, that
and the first FKWAR book. Susan is now watching over me which makes me
smile.

Newsflash, Jeanster -- you DID do something special!
You built a wonderful sandbox and invited all of us to come play in it --
and made sure we all played nicely, too. Most fans today can't imagine what
the net was like back then, nothing like today where you can find a dozen
fan pages for every pairing of every show. It was wonderful and special to
find other people who loved the show as much as I did. Without the amazing
fan community you were instrumental in developing, Susan's fanfics and novel
might never have happened. Heck, the second and third seasons might not
have happened!
Thank you, Jaye, for everything. *hugs*

Who still has printouts of our initial discussions of episode six mouldering
in her parents' basement somewhere....
