House Log
I don't normally do this, but after reading how much fun a friend has with her blog I wanted to share some of the silliness that is me and my friends. I'm gonna tell on a few people. First off, anything attributed to Chloe is me. Miles is my friend Phil -- the one I went to see in Oklahoma. Jimmy is James , and Prospero and Cousin Kate are Josh and Laura, two incredibly awesome California folks who run Something Wicked This Way Comes and are part of the crew of us working on Tribe 8 stuff.
Apologies to those who aren't familiar with Changeling. This probably won't be very funny. This was originally logged on March 22, 2000.
Guest2 wants to see Second Coming: Book of Lost Houses.
Jimmy doesn't want to see that one at all. Ewww.
Cousin Kate says "THAT should have been out before 2K."
Cousin Kate says "Or at least in January."
Jimmy chuckles. "White Wolf, late on release? When did this start happening?" ;)
Guest2 says "Release date.. 11/00."
Chloe chuckles. And thinks everyone who knows her knows which House she'd like to see officially show up in BoLH. ;)
Miles says "As long as it's not House Pariah."
Jimmy wants to see it too, but is pretty afraid they'll butcher it.
Guest2 says "Which house?"
Jimmy nods to Miles too. "And that sort of garbage is my other fear."
Cousin Kate says "House Bobo."
Chloe says "It's one of the houses Deana McKinney came up with. Moment. :)"
Thomas Dane SO fears KB Redcap.
Jimmy assumed it was House Elatha?
Thomas Dane says "House Pancakes."
Cousin Kate laughs
Chloe nodnods at Jimmy. http://www.geocities.com/elathan_of_fomhiore/freehold/Houseelatha.html
Thomas Dane says "House Style. House Dressing."
Cousin Kate /laughs/!
Chloe is /so/ using that one in her TT game. How could she not? :) *giggles at TD*
Thomas Dane has some -ideas-, man. House Dressing can have a ginger taste to it. They're very popular among Japanese people, and addictive.
Miles takes bets that House Merinita'll show up.
Cousin Kate finds House Dressing funnier and funnier the more she looks at it
Jimmy wants to see House Rules. Their boon is they can warp reality via a manipulation roll. Their flaw is that everyone that meets them feels compelled to do nothing but argue.
Cousin Kate nods at Miles.
Thomas Dane says "where's the most recent release date list?"
Guest2 says " http://www.nocturnis.net/faqs/caf/calendar.php "
Chloe giggles at Jimmy. :)
Jimmy nods. "Duke Stupid-Ass of House Rules was the one that managed to suck away vampire powers through sex." ;)
Prospero comes down from on high.
Prospero has arrived.
Prospero wants to hear this mad crazy fun, yo.
Thomas Dane just wants House Painter. They're all artists, you see.
Jimmy grins at Pro. "We're making up the new Houses for the Lost House release."
Chloe says "House Mother. They're rather boggan-y sidhe."
Thomas Dane offers you House Salad. The Gardeners.
Miles says "House Wine. They complain constantly."
Chloe says "House Special."
Jimmy says "They're all handicapped."
Miles says "House Detective. They're all clones of Kent."
Chloe gets a bad case of the giggles.
Jimmy sorries for that one. But I couldn't resist.
Chloe says "I was trying to come up with something Jimmy. That works. :)"
Mia says "House Arrest."
Cousin Kate dies!
Chloe says "They're all criminals?"
Thomas Dane says "criminals and law enforcement. Many trolls belong to this house."
Cousin Kate says "Its the long lost brother of Eiluned and Ailil."
Chloe says "House Boat. Relatives to the mer and the selkies."
Cousin Kate says "The one mother liked best."
Thomas Dane says "House Style is, of course, where Cindy Crawford came from."
Prospero says "House Wife. House Flaw: they're all Truehearted. House Boon: they can vaccum, cook, take care of the kids and do windows, too!"
Chloe falls over.
Thomas Dane says "House Husband. Same thing, but more liberated."
Chloe says "House Guest. Eternal wanderers."
Prospero says "House. Where Lem, Matt, Mike, Chuck and EV come from."
Cousin Kate says "And they don't get the dust bunnies under the couch."
Thomas Dane says "House Cat. What can you say about them? ;>"
Chloe says "God. Somebody log this, please."
Cousin Kate LAUGHS!
Miles says "House Winchester. They're huge, rambling, but never go anywhere."
Miles says "House of Lords. They're redundant."
Miles says "House of Commons. No sidhe allowed."
Prospero says "When is this book coming out? I fear the tidal wave of applicants."
Cousin Kate can hear us all thinking of House ____ now.
Cousin Kate says "December, I think Guest said."
Guest2 says "November."
Prospero says "Good, we can breathe easier."
Mia says "House Boy...Boon: Very efficient. Flaw: Satyr playtoy."
Cousin Kate says "Sometime inappropriate."
Anna has connected.
Miles says "House Frat. Boon: Copious Stamina. Flaw: Toga! Toga! Toga!"
Cousin Kate is going to go take a shower and try and think of crazy houses. ;)
Chloe says "House Fire. See also: House Flambeau."
Cousin Kate laughs
Prospero says "House Frat: Boon: Toga! Toga! Toga! Flaw: Copious Stamina."
Miles says "House Sitter. They all look like Goldie Hawn and Steve Martin."
Guest2 says "House Party?"
Chloe says "Lots of satyrs in their ranks. :)"
Thomas Dane just thinks... House Call - The only nobles to come visit -you-.
Cousin Kate says "They can have a trago named 'Block', so they're Block Party."
Cousin Kate says "House Warming. They live in the Kingdom of Bright Paradise."
Chloe giggles!
Miles says "House Isnotahome: They're not really comfortable anywhere."
Cousin Kate gets one in, yes!
Cousin Kate says "House Call, bwaaaa!"
Anna says "House Fly?"
Miles says "They all have wings, but they've got to puke on their food to eat it."
Chloe says "House Broken. Well...."
Cousin Kate says "House boon: all have wings merit. House flaw: all have wings merit."
Anna giggles.
Cousin Kate snarfs!
Thomas Dane likes House Key. They're all childlings with busy parents.
Prospero says "House Boon. Known as generous folk."
Cousin Kate says "TD is -good- at this"
Thomas Dane is just sick. ;>
Miles says "House Flaw: They're sick puppies."
Thomas Dane brings you... House Rising Sun. They're all... <ehem> and it's located in New Orleans.
Miles says "House Lights: They glow in the dark."
Anna snickers. Good one.
Chloe says "It's been ruin of many a poor boy, TD."
Thomas Dane high-fives Chloe.
Chloe grins.
Prospero says "Alternately: House Fly: they all got cool clothes and dance really good."
Chloe giggles!
Cousin Kate says "House Keeper. They're the watchers who watch the watchers."
Chloe says "House Music: Funky DJs."
Anna says "Flaw: Have to do what everyone else around them is doing."
Chloe giggles.
Miles says "House Pet: The Satyrs just LOVE them."
Cousin Kate says "House 'A'mess. Where Pro and CKate live."
Thomas Dane really hopes someone logs this for the webpage. I tried but lost my old screen.
Prospero says "No, that's House Miniscule."
Thomas Dane likes House For Sale. They're all mercenaries and realtors.
Cousin Kate says "House O'Mirrors?"
Thomas Dane says "Fun House. They're backwards -and- clowns!"
Cousin Kate says "They flip seelie and unseelie by looking in reflective surfaces."
Cousin Kate says "Clowns!"
Miles says "House Usher: They just won't stay dead."
Chloe says "Terrible sibling rivalry though."
Anna says "House Rules?"
Cousin Kate says "Caught that one. ;)"
Chloe says "That's what /started/ all of this. :)"
Anna says "Drat. *muttermutter* :)"
Cousin Kate says "House Rodenberry: all those techno sidhe can have a place now."
Thomas Dane says "House Call, revised - They're all telephone solicitors."
Miles says "House Work: And you thought the DOUGAL were industrious."
Bottom chuckles. "House Nextdoor: Flaw, they're loud as hell, Boon, they throw the best damn Midsummer parties."
Prospero icks. "Name the technohouse after somebody cooler."
Miles says "House Gibson?"
Guest2 says "House Heinlein?"
Cousin Kate says "Fine: House Strazinski."
Prospero says "House Niven. House Asimov. House Gibson."
Cousin Kate LOVES G2 now.
Miles says "House Heinlein: They're all multitalented Redheads."
Guest2 hops into CK's arms.
Cousin Kate says "With the JOAT merit."
Miles nods at CKate.
Thomas Dane says "and the Faerie Eternity Merit."
Miles says "House Boon: They can walk around naked and not worry about the effects of Gravity."
Cousin Kate sees house work. Narf!
Thomas Dane laughs.
Bottom grins. "House of Pain: Bad redcap music, but popularity is inevitable."
Miles says "House of the Dead: They're very quiet in Parliament."
Cousin Kate says "House Heinlein: you thought Fiona was bad."
Guest2 says "And very popular with Sluagh, the House of the Dead are.."
Miles says "House Writer: They're talented hacks."
Cousin Kate says "The Opera House. They all sing."
Chloe says "House Wares. They specialize in nifty gadgets made of plastic. Own lots of stock in Rubbermaid."
Cousin Kate says "Not to be confussed by the Kingdom of Willows spin off: The Grand Ol' Opre House."
Vander says "House WaReZ: Boon: Computer aptitude for free. Flaw: Hunted."
Anna says "House Salad, vegans one and all."
Miles says "Best little Whore House: And you though House Heinlein was bad."
Thomas Dane says "but it's only in Texas."
Lili has connected.
Cousin Kate says "side hurts... laughing..."
Chloe giggles at Vander!
Prospero says "Smoke House: mmmm nummy."
Thomas Dane says "Hill House, Haunted House, and House 2: The Second Story. A trio of related houses that are all infested with poltergeists and banshees. Scary!"
Chloe says "Not /that/ scary. ;)"
Prospero says "In the Dreaming, the movies were actually cool, though."
Chloe says "Yeah. that /would/ be a dream. ;)"
Miles loved House 2. Bite your tongue, Prosp.
Prospero did not see.
Bottom smiles. "House of Non-Sequitor. Where Prospero sits on his lonely throne, and we all giggle at him."
Miles says "Of course, I'm a sucker for Cowboy Zombies."
Prospero wheeees!
Thomas Dane ooooos. Road House! Every sidhe looks like Patrick Swayze, and they all get +2 to intimidation and brawl.
Cousin Kate says "They somehow have Troll blood without being blue."
Chloe says "House Hunting: See 'House Guest', except they're eternal wanderers in search of a place to lay their heads."
Vander says "House Sitter, Every Sidhe is mooching off a noble who's on vacation."
Chloe says "Already done, Vander. :)"
Vander says "Missed it"
Thomas Dane says "Mobile Home - Trailer trash sidhe who don't even rate a full house. Can't have about resources 2, but the entire house is very loyal to one another."
Chloe says "HEY."
Prospero says "And they have shotguns."
Cousin Kate says "A household within House Opera could be Lounge. Then they could be Lounge Lizards."
Prospero says "All pooka."
Vander says "Home Improvement: Offshoot of House Dougal, specializes in supercharging powertools. Flaw: Always gets injured with said tools."
Chloe thinks we finally killed the topic. :)
Cousin Kate LAUGHS!
Chloe peers?
Thomas Dane grins. "White House. Composed entirely of older Causcasian sidhe who are born to rule the country. Flaw: prone to scandals, abuse, and excesses. Must run for reelection."
Thomas Dane says "needless to say, their policies of not admitting women, minorities, people under 35, or people of most religions in means that they're a very unpopular house. Kind of like Gwydion, with a bigger stick up their rear."
Miles says "Doogie-Houser: Precocious brats."
Chloe groans.
Chloe's tummy hurts from holding giggles in.
Miles says "House Doctor: What members of Doogie House-r grow up to be."
Bottom sighs. "So, CKate shouts out from the shower 'Hey! You gotta say House of Blues! an' say it was from me!!'"
Miles says "And finally, House Archer: They're all named for Noir detectives and tend to be the focus of High Weirdness."
Chloe says "And they're all played by Miles. :)"
