I need a new project, so.. packing it all

But that would be setting someone up for humor or to demonstrate cleverness.... something I never...nah, let's not have God fry the lap top 😉

Yeah, Mr. D....that doesn't even have a prayer of plausibility.

Hope you both have a blast

OKay. I'm not going to lie, playing female sidhe is disturbingly fun at times. Like breaking out every 80s trope about the popular girls there is good and bad.

wait...

which one is Sparrow?

I mean, she WAS a choir-singing Bible-club cheerleader....

A look left and right, "Jessica? I know you are best when you are yourself? But we're gonna want to break out good voile on this. Either go for the dress, or if you want to project more of a warrior image? we can do that, but the armor gets shined up." A look at her head, "And your hair gets.. unthat" she makes a wave motion (Mitra talking to Jessica about an upcoming audience with the Countess)

chuckle Oh, dear. But yes.

hahaha

Ha! Wow. Yes...time to girl-ify Jess. Or at least step up the game one way or another.

Not sure which 80s popular girl she fits. Huh... if we tread further in... might be touches of Tara Maclay From Buffy... family (House) shame and on the run. Shy, unsure, but with firm moral convictions of her own

Hmm...I can sort of see Tara, yes, but that wouldn't be my first association. Maybe more like early Willow (if we're going with Buffy)...completely insecure about her own knowledge and power...?

Ooo yeah, can see that too

And she gets those moments of, "No! You're going to listen to me, and you're going to do this, and you're going to do that, because that's what needs to happen right now and I'm tired of all of your crap!! Um...okay?"

afternoon, all

Of course, Willow was never the popular prized one at start... she was girl nerd. Where as Sparrow was the shiny new prize at first, then sneered at

Oh, good point.

Huh. Every see 10 things I hate about you? Yes, we've left the 80s behind

Yup!

Also, re: willow - redheaded lezbean?

....unseelie Bird might, in fact, be dark willow

vamp willow

not dark willow

too many willows!

I can see a touch of Kat from that. She was popular, got used, and is warning others away from falling into that trap.

ALL THE WILLOWS!!!

Hm. I imagine, Mr D, that at least one or two Topeka people enjoyed seeing the "popular girl" having the rug pulled out from under her and getting her comeuppance

Mr D. nod I can see what you're seeing.

True. For every Dio there's at least one Jerko

Because some people will see "popular" first an ascribe all those 80s stereotypes regardless of behavior

...which I think also has a movie equivalent somewhere

Okay....I'm going to bow out for a while, folks. Any time or specific requests for RP for later?

The tallest nail gets hammered hardest

tall poppies, yup

Not sure, Rahne. I've had a blast with RV of late. Thanks for that. But i'm going off soon myself for a bit

Legally blonde's Elle Woods is a bit too upbeat to fit Sparrow. but certain fits the 'victim of the popular girl stereotype' angle

If you want to go WAAY back, Scarlet Letter ...Sparrow is a spiritual successor to Esther. The big L on her now.

I vanish now. Puff

an aside...

she might actually be BUFFY...

Nooooo...maybe?

Buffy was a cheerleader prom queen before she knew she was the slayer

Eeek!!

Sorry, ma'am
