Dusk

I know I already asked some of you, but I want to know what the others can say too. So probably it's a good way to ask here.
Those who already replied to me are welcome to reply here again;-)))

This was an incredibly looooong weekend.

Friday: I left work at 4pm (by the prior agreement with my manager), quickly came home, grabbed some food on the way, put on costume and ears, and Nadia picked me up. We had almost no problems in finding the way and came to the camp early enough to have lots of time for socializing before the game. I found that all my scrolls are incredibly useful, so it was difficult to choose what to have. I ended up with all possible brews and Light, and Julianne's character has bought a Dream Walk for me (which was later used for a whole bunch of people).

IC we had dinner, then prepared for the wedding. I promised Nikki to help her with her hair but it turned out she didn't have some pins (I don't remember how they are called, I think - bow pins?). Then there was a dialog: Nikki "Can you please find Cath and ask if she has bow-pins?" Me "Where is Cath?" Then a misunderstanding started: Nikki "Do you know who is Cath?" Me "I have no idea" Nikki "Do you know Steph? Cath is her twin sister" Me, angry "I know WHO is Cath, I have no idea WHERE she is!" Ok, we laughed a bit, then I had a great quest "finding Cath" and was successful, so Nikki got her hair done properly. I must say - all those wedding preparations looked so real!

The prince was wondering around asking "Where is my woman?" (I've heard that myself). Chantelle and Nikki had a nice dialog: Chantelle "You look beautiful, milady" Nikki "Not as beautiful as you, damn it!" Chantelle "Eeeehhh... is it an OOC comment?"
The next events were really interesting, and it was so cool and real when we all started celebrating and people moved the tables to make space for dancing, and suddenly someone yelled outside "The orcs attack!" That was one of the most IC moments from my point of view. Guarding Megilindir in battle is really hard. While fulfilling the order to close the backdoors of the inn and closing one we saw the Prince jumping out through the other door, and when we were able to reach him he was already fighting some orcs.

Before we entered the Dream World I've made really many Warding Brews. And, I think, I was the only one who lost not only the point given by the brew but also one of my own, so when I took the tenticle strike intended for my lord I suddenly realized that now I have to fall. But that's ok, my dress is quite washable;-)))) In fact, it is already clean. After I fell, people around me were more scared than I was, as I could understand by the sounds. And then Dylan had lefted me and carried away, which scared others even more as they thought that a dead body is being carried away;-) And after I returned to the battle someone pulled me away while thinking I'm the princess, and was upset when realized that I'm not;-/

By the way, does any of those who were at the game knows what was that plant that smelled so incredibly nice when we entered the dreamworld? This smell just suddenly appears, and it was also a very IC moment. I could think the GMs specially provided that if such thought wouldn't be a complete nonsense.
The biggest laugh happenned when people found out that Megilindir has tenticle again.

Saturday: I had a nice warm night in my new sleeping bag, and in the morning we all had nice breakfast, then Rhiannon taught me some origami, then the guy called Tigah (I'm sure I misspel this) asked me about my accent, if it is Bolivian, or Kenian, or Iceland (at that point I said "How didn you know? My SCA character is gonna be from Iceland!"); then Nadia and I drove back to Auckland singing "Rose, rose, rose red", that was occasionally interrupted by my yells about sheep around the road.
I visited Geoffs Emporium on Dominion road and got some fabric and lots of nice fake jewels, and some cotton for embroidery, and a bit of golden cord. After 7pm I came to Pirates vs Ninjas party to the Secret Lair, people got angry with my camera as usual, at the same time asking about photos from the last party. And I met the guy in that cool hat I saw on Friday, hes name is Dale, I think, and he is a strongly pronounced SCA person, because when you give a hand to a man for a handshake and he kisses it instead - that really does impress. I also had my new chain on which I bought right before the party, and that's a real pirate-looking chain. As well as my hat which everybody tried to steal. Especially some pirate wenchs;-)

Sunday: came back to Secret Lair by 10pm, and we had embroidery meeting of the colledge, and I've learned three stitches, and apparently I'm not bad at embroidery, and I remembered the link to the site from which Zara took the information and later accesses it at home, and got all those instructions.

At 12noon Nadia and I left to go to Sward&Shield, and this time we had some NAAMA practicing with swords and shields, and I got a hard strike on my right hand somewhere close to beginning of the training, so for the rest of the time I was just watching others while holding ice on my hand. Luckily by the end of the day it was almost ok, and I can now even bend it more or less, so I'm just gonna have a painful bruise and nothing else. That's good.

And today Nadia will pick me up from work and we'll go to Rhiannon's place for Elven feast. I took a dress and ears with me, and some music. That's gonna be fun.
I think this was the longest post I ever wrote in my LJ.
