Okay! I have achieved Starbucks. Aaaand I am here for the next six hours, and as we know, the rules of the road are boring enough that it is tempting to just kill pedestrians rather than learn them by rote.

Therefore: entertain me.

MAYBE, I SAID

Since I spend so much time studying esoteric irrelevancies for RP anyway, I figure it might be beneficial to my Roman history skillz (and my Roman History exam) to mumblemumble *trails off*

All I have learned about medicine/classical music/Portugal/animals that I did not learn from the Aubreyad proper I have learnt doing research for this game.

INORITE? I swear, if I put half as much effort into academia as I have done RANDOM SHIT for RP over the years, I would have a freaking PhD by now. Uh, hence my tentative but cunning plan of apping someone from a field that I will actually have an exam in, come summer.

The essay on Evagrius Ponticus that I was MEANT TO HAND IN IN JUNE remains unfinished. But I know how long it would take someone on a horse to canter from Obidos to Lisbon! And that the Torre de Belem was used as a hospital by Wellington's army! And LINNAEAN TAXONOMY!

Obviously, you should app someone relevant to your studies in

milliways_bar, to balance it out.

Evagrius Ponticus would be totally boring. He would be all "Do not visualise God when you pray! Because he is a DEMON! Temptation, nuuuu!" Then again, awesome interaction with the GO lot.

There would be no point - we do one essay a week. The only constant figure is Jesus.

¬¬

:p

Uh. Yes. Jesus, not so much.

*ponders*

Perhaps a theologian from the Royal Society during, say, the Enlightenment? Someone who would be inclined to study/discuss the things you are studying! I bet you could find someone appropriate in Stephenson's Baroque Cycle. >.>

Ha!

To be honest, I am actually using what I've learnt for Stephen - he's not a theologian, but he knows more than enough to keep me bust with. The Catholicism really helps. And Michaelmas term I did several papers of natural theology, which with natural philosophy with some added implications.

This is the thought process behind my on again off again thought of picking up a French lit pup, but I'm at a loss as to whom.

QUASIMODO

D: D: D: Ow.

~~He could get turned into a mermaid.~~

*snort* xD

I was really kind of feeling that (after Eisenheim) my next pup should be a villain.

My friend continues to ply me for Jafar, but I waffle.

JUDGE CLAUDE FROLLO LONGED TO PURGE THE BAR OF VICE AND SIN

*hyperventilates* That icon. That's practically enough incentive right there.

Except I'd have to reread for like a year. *weeps*

You can't tell me that Frollo attempting to mount a moral crusade in Milliways wouldn't be worth it.

No I can't.

Of course, now I want Frollo-Madame de Tourvel. >_>;

I SECOND THIS PROPOSAL OF APPING FROLLO SO SO SO SO SO HARD.

~~It's less reading than it would be to app Javert?~~
