Because an unreasonable amount of last night and this morning was devoted to the idea of various concept chess sets...

The White Queen
You scored 3 Power-Finesse, 3 Leader-Follower, 4 Unique-Ordinary, and 3 Offense-Defense!
Sometimes, you will stand by your team, keeping them safe but only because they serve you. More often, you will be found menacing the enemy and causing them to cower on their half of the board in fear of your wrath. You have power, and you enjoy projecting it -- or inflicting it. Woe to the lowly pawn or bishop who crosses your path... but beware the charming black knight, who alone of the pieces can steal your heart without you realizing it.

Silly creatures. I always figured myself for a bishop.

That's because you got *my* result -- sorry.

Speakin' of white queen stuff. If you're able to lure me into Dragon*Con next year, what do you think of dressing up as Mercy & Severity? It could be fun to see who wants to ride the lightning path, and who gets QBLH jokes. :)

I dunno -- it could be fun times, but that might not be the right party for that game. Which one would you want to be?

Mercy, probably, since that's more natural for me and we don't want to accidentally invoke anything.

Wait. A) What are you afraid we'll accidentally invoke in this configuration that we wouldn't invoke the other way around? and B) You think the white's safer?

mercy, mercy, mercy

No way is the white safer at all...just more familiar. You asked which I'd want to be and that's my answer, is all.

When I dedicated myself, I didn't know what I was doing, lo those many years ago. :) This time, we'd maybe be aspecting but certainly not bargaining for another three-year Fun Ride.

As for Accidental Invocations, well. The whole point is that one doesn't see it coming. Just looking to mitigate risk a bit. (shrug) It's only theoretical at this point anyway.

Hell. I'm not letting anything possess me in front of that many people, not unless I'm also going to be walking around tethered to a very large rock. Or perhaps a Rock Troll. I can barely keep my damned head together at Con as it is. Not sharing headspace with anybody, not even small powers, and especially not that sort of Large Impersonal Force.

I think we are saying much the same thing here, just with different vocabulary and levels of certainty. I feel no need to get forceful about the issue, since I'm concentrating on NOT GOING to Dragon*Con. (grin)

::volunteers for Rock troll duty::

Because someone's got to do it. I suppose you could be chained to me for a bit. I'd even behave.

note- no mention of how I'd behave ;)

Honey, you only ever behave one way. ::rolls eyes::

And it's pretty much not like a rock troll...

Well, maybe in one way...
