fannish state of being

[toujours_nigel]

1. My RenaultX assignment is stalled on a point of etiquette. I have got a lot more concerned about historical accuracy than the last time I wrote in this fandom, and that's not really fun right now.


2. I just received and am already in love with my rarelywritten assignment, so that at least is all to the good.


3. Being on the fringes of any fandom is often hilarious, and the Legend of Korra fandom right now is in a right state.


4. I'm contemplating a Georgian/AgeofSail!Charioteer AU, a sure sign of impending illness.


5. I... do think I should move off from Renault fandom as a whole, since I don't seem to be coping with fairly trivial things very well.

I might be able to help with etiquette in the Renault contemporaries: prob. not for the Greeks, though: pm me if you like.

[toujours_nigel]

alas, it's the Greeks. :( It's only a real issue in my own head.

As I recall there were members of the old maryrenaultfics on LJ who were historians and may therefore be able to shed some light on ancient etiquette. You might try pming one of them. Or consider your recipient: is it someone who will be terribly concerned about historical accuracy?

[toujours_nigel]

True. And I don't think so, especially since it's a very minor thing.

Thanks.

That's very sad! If you go holiday in other fannish places I hope you feel up to returning eventually.

I know nothing of Greek manners and mores beyond herma, which really beat holly wreaths, brass door knockers and garden gnomes into a cocked hat as far as external home decoration goes. *re-reads* *cough*

Herms are absolutely the most, er, prominent thing. *g*
