===== Gallimaufry's Rhyming Corner =====

Here's a chance for those of wit\\
To talk in rhyming verse a bit\\
If you've a rhyme, don't let it fester\\
Come and play at being jester!\\

I'll take this chance to play your game\\
Though Monte may express great shame.\\
But I know why he loathes this jest:\\
He knows his poems are second-best!\\

While I've not done so for an age,\\
It's time for me the stage.\\
Though normally I'd just fall flat,\\
Were I to don the jester’s hat.\\

===== Fixer =====
How shady can I get?
Literal shadow?
Planning to bring a small speaker to play the jaws theme
I need a mask
One terrifying enough to work and instill fear

What about a pallid one? I hear they grow on trees now : )

*grins helpfully*

===== ALSO Presented Without Comment =====

Two households, both alike in dignity,

In fair Esharia, where lays our scene,

From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,

Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.

From forth the fatal loins of these two foes

A pair of star-cross'd lovers make new life:

Within their land the bioship yet grows,

Though plagued by poison, and politic strife.

The fearful passage of their planned out love,

And the continuance of their parents' rage,

Which, but their children's end, nought could remove,

Is now the three hours' traffic of our stage;

The which if you with patient ears attend,

What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.


HEY GUYS WATCH OUT FOR A FUN IC PROPOSAL COMING TO A SESSION NEAR YOU

  Oh wow this is going to be amazing :O !
  
 Marvel at how Anacleta and Daieni are still not married, despite working only towards this goal-- star-crossed in th'extreme

ANACLETA: Ah, dear Daieni,
Why art thou yet so fair? shall I believe
That unsubstantial death is amorous,
And that the lean abhorred monster keeps
Thee here in dark to be his paramour?
For fear of that, I still will stay with thee;
And never from this palace of dim night
Depart again: here, here will I remain
With flow'rs that are thy chamber-maids; O, here
Will I set up my everlasting life,
And shake the yoke of inauspicious stars
From this world-wearied flesh.

And burnt the topless towers of Teunus? \\

Oh, thou art fairer than the evening air\\
Clad in the beauty of a thousand moons;\\
Brighter art thou than the flaming suns\\
When they sink behind the burning shore..."\\

===== Dispatches From Turnsheet Writing =====

What's going through my head as I write a certain back-from-the-dead action: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wlq_9JyBvC8]]

Oh, god, most depressing musical ever. Saw it and then wanted to go see something cheerful, like Titus Andronicus. The only good thing was I got to see Lea Michele and Jonathan Groff before they were famous.
