I'm glad YSU lets them do a system name change even if they don't have a legal one

Ya'll, I just wanna have Dexter in my roster and not your deadname. Makes it easier for me.

Deadname? Interesting term

It's frustrating enough that I can't get computer systems to acknowledge that I use my MIDDLE name, not my first name. They're both my legal names, but the whole first-name-middle-initial convention is really annoying.

Deadname is a term for a trans person's former name, the one they're no longer using

Aren't you like a Jessica or a jennifer?

Ah

I went by my middle name until I was 24, so, I get it

though, oddly, I get more pushback on Katherine in some ways

SURELY I am a Kate or Kathy!

Jane.

I always go by J. Robin. One year my students decided the J stood for "Jingles."

......

Jingles is a good pooka name

Not unlike...

What's the feather from?

but not as fancy, more straightforward.

Well, Lucia should know 😄

"I made a friendship bracelet out of your hair"

(Winged boggan! Don't ask when or how he got the feather. You might not like the answer)

"Ah. uh.. thank you?"

on the nose, Mr. D!

WOW...that's one of her own feathers? CREEEEEEEEEPY.

(score! that's what he's looking for!)

and both a calligraphy and a normal writing nib

I assume those are things

I do not know 😄

They ARE!

Hmmm.... it would be rude to leave the noble guest. Calanthe wants to know what Aiden is talking about though.

Torn torn torn 🙂

Oh, it makes me so sad to see her troubled this way. No. Wait. No, it doesn't. Not a bit.

ahahah

Okay, hang on folks, AFK a couple of minutes, sorry.

Sorry, had to find my power cord.

Errand, BRB

Dirk thought he was gonna get to HIT Somebody! grumble 🙂

He might yet!

HA!

lookit that fourth wall!

Gerd thumbs her nose at the fourth wall.

Gerd, Witch of the Fourth Wall!

G "We're not special, Lucia. I know it, DIrk knows it, Zane knows it, and nwo you know it... " /"But what about Siv?" / Dirk shrugs "She's kind of thick about it"

Hmmm....does anybody in this group have Fair Fortune, as far as we know?

"Let's see..." Symon flicks through his cabinet. "I have hair... ears... nope, no Fair."

Actually, never mind, I'll ask IC.

I need a break for a bit. My butt's going numb.

Okay
