oh yeah

I went with Rae's suggestion of models.

Is good!

I like the smile!

Well, when he's not being ambushed by racist scumballs he seems a nice guy. I might have to change his last name for reasons given by Rae earlier, or maybe he's just giving that last name to simplify

/roll 6

fwiw, i totally missed he was black last night

Honestly? I left it vague to make sure which side of PIper's moms he was on etc. ;)

heh

Dagmar has some angst there - she's largely been raised by white folk, and she's light.

She doesn't actually know her sperm donor, so it's more white-and-ambiguous

it's an in-between place. Of course, to the changelings, she's Blue.

That's nice and clear.

True!

I know it sounds weird, but I picture most Arcadian sidhe as fairly racially tolerant. 🙂 "We possess rich folks of every creed and color"

ha!

(but only the most beautiful ones)

Man

CNN and Sesame Street are doing a show about racism and the protests

GOOD.

sesame street does this stuff well

I need to be AFK for maybe 30 min, get cleaned up and all. BBASAP. Pause?

Sure

I did the thing

It was turrible

woo!

The worst part is stopping

The average donut is 200 calories!

And the heat catches up and the sweat starts

you earned it!

I earned a shower I think

that too

Ugh, still overheated

re: Basil, he could easily have chosen to use that last name because that's the name of the family he's visiting (and the name they would recognize). Or in solidarity with his auntie who took that married name

or maybe it's not important 🙂

Actually I like that.

Rae, you've read Harriet the Spy, right?

Um. I don't specifically remember it, but I probably did

I think I read most of the library when I was small

Ohhh

Harriet is a Spy. She keeps a notebook full of observations and theories. It's wonderful and I may have read it until it fell apart.

There was one neighbor, where she would sneak into the dumbwaiter and listen to her gossip on the phone

Rae, you are a beast.

almost cooled down enough for a coffee I think

woo

an aside: the book is "The Hundred Dresses"
