Okay, so here's my continuation...how many people can I get through this time?? We shall see!! But where to start is the question as there are so many people to get through seeing as a giant group of them were there once
Wilwa and I had arrived with our escort.
We shall start with.....
Kath, our resident exotic speaker (along with
Rune of course!) and the one with the heart of gold. No jokes!! I never really got to speak to her much on the Downs, except in Werewolf games really (and we all know how those turn out.
) and so it was rather nice to finally meet and speak with her in person. I will also mention that (and
Wilwa can attest to this)
Kath and
Rune were the two people I was most excited to meet. As an actor, I have a tendency of doing something that is known as "people watching". Sometimes it's unintentional (people are just fascinating sometimes) but this one was going to be completely intentional. I'm actually really surprised that I did not stand there for hours on end just making both of them speak so I could hear their accents!! Anyways, sadly, I did not get to spend as much time with
Kath as I would have liked, but the few times we did manage to get to speak, they were wonderful. And she is also the reason I will be calling pop (soda) fizzy drink instead! Yes, it was
Kath that started this bandwagon! I absolutely cannot wait to meet this wonderful woman once more and hope to spend a little more time with her.
As for our other exotic European (I do love you guys and you know it!), I spent a little more time with.
Rune and I spent much of the time at the apartment together, and ended up sharing the floor as a bed one night! I would also like to say that
Rune and I were very good friends when he and I first joined the Downs, which was approximately the same time if I am correct. Anyways, there were many different adventures had with this Dane (as he soon became known as). The first was my very first trip to the grocery store with
Rune,
Fea,
Lari,
Diamond and
Mira. I had heard the story of
Rune's excitement at the price of meat the day before (it happened to be one of the first stories told to us by our escorts {
Boro in this case} once
Wilwa and I arrived) and was sort of expecting what was to happen to happen....yet nothing to the extent that it did happen! As soon as we walked through the door,
Mira took one look at
Rune, noticed the bored look upon his face and told him to go play in the meat section. And he did so....with a hop, a skip and a jump to set him on his way!! The sight of this Dane, skipping through the grocery store to the meats was enough to set the rest of us into giant fits of uncontrollable laughter for a good five minutes! Yet this was not the first field trip I had with
Rune. Earlier that day, him,
Diamond and I went on a long adventure to go find the post office, and we stopped in at a pub for lunch.
Rune is definitely one of a kinda. Behind the tough, witty persona he puts on, there beats the heart of gold. Kind and caring, our Dane set me to tears with the copious amounts of hugs that I received as
Wilwa and I were boarding the bus for home. I am extremely happy to have finally met him and cannot wait to see him again.
Diamond is another total sweetheart. Quiet, a little shy, but funny and outgoing all at the same time. I had a lot of fn with this Downer on our rather long adventure to find a post office (with
Rune) in order to send out a post card! The three of us stopped many times on what should have been a fifteen minute walk to take
pictures of the scenery. She is also a dangerous Werewolf player for she remains quiet, yet when she does speak, there is always really good thoughts put forward, so you're afraid to vote and lynch her off. And I would like to apologize to her for my rather good luck at surviving a day longer then I should have! Don't kill me!!
Enca was another rather quiet member as she sat there for a good portion of it
crocheting a hat for
Formendacil. Which also made her a very dangeroud Werewolf player (and if memory serves me correct, she did in fact end up being a Wolf and almost managed to get away with it!) I also did not get to spend much time with
Enca, which is rather sad as she was one of the ones I was looking forward to meeting. But what I did get to know of this Downer, I have nothing bad to say about her (or any of them for that matter....except
Mira but she knows I'm kidding and love her!
) and really cannot wait to meet her again and hopefully spend more time with her.
That's all for today. I'll do another four sometime this week....if not, then next weekend hopefully!!
