Hey kids!
So I know Eileen's still got a year and Cynric can't move up or down and Declan is absolutely not going to stop being a Five for the rest of his life so help him Butler God, I -do- have some Cards who want to Challenge--and Cards I think ought to -be- Challenged.
Evan and Aleksei can probably Challenge NPCs, because there aren't good candidates who make sense within striking distance, but I feel like Cadogan and Rita--as an Outsider Face and Outsider Nine respectively--should probably get a bit of flak and such for this whole 'in and out' debate. They're also both currently in moderately weakened positions--Rita because of the accounting mess and Cadogan because of the related murder mess, both of which seem like legitimate reasons for them to be Challenged even before you get to the fact they're not Deckborn.
They can also be hit by NPCs, of course, but if anyone wanted a swing at them (or for Evan or Aleksei to take a swing at them), let me know!

EXCELLENT VERY GOOD AUNT AVA APPROVES. So does Uncle Ben, really. And I just like to type out Uncle Ben and giggle.
no subject
How many Diamonds can Roisin Thomas adopt and/or how many of them did Cadogan accidentally sibling-adopt himself so he can't complain. :|a
And how many of them will give her grandbabies Adrien is currently winning the rest of you need to get your shit together.
no subject
Sounds like a most excellent plan /o/
I think Emma and I discussed Ava and Ethan having 3 kids and a dog because who expects that kind of normalcy out of them. Who.
no subject
So Adrien and Avery will be winning. Sophie may also be winning. Cadogan and Ben are losing. :|
no subject
I have no excuses for Ben but he seems perfectly happy to do this:
For other people.
no subject
Also Benjamin Middlename Saintname Mackinnon, that is a waste of good Scottish genes.
no subject
no subject
Wait.
Wait.
Is his saint name from David. Like Saint David. Like Dewi Sant. Like the patron saint of poets and vegetarians aND WALES.
(Someone will die laughing silently.)
Also Rita is more than ready and willing.
no subject
They should stop dancing one of these days and do something. Perhaps after her challenge.
no subject
LAUGHING
Roisin will swat him for his laughing because David I is also a very nice saint they're sure.
A goodly plan. But probably there should be some amount of actual dancing involved.

WHO WORE IT BETTER.

no subject
No seriously I would love to see more style challenges but I'm a fashion nerd.
no subject
Also I like the idea of someone Challenging Cadogan in something related to fashion and feeling very smug because he's neat but utilitarian and then suddenly
a distant rumble
which gets closer
and suddENLY
A FLAMBOYANCE OF ADRIEN.
And then Cadogan wins because best coach ever.
no subject
(I suspect it would actually be either sharp pointy things or something highly intellectual and perhaps literary.)
ADRIEN SAVES THE DAY. I can see Sophie shaking her head and going YOU FOOOOL.
I also find it amusing to talk about fashion in the King of Flannel's account. Oh my Diamonds. Not a single one of them can be stereotypes.
no subject
wear these heels and balance a book on your head and recite the opening stanza of the book on your head and fashion somehow. :|a
...can you tell I don't fashion.
Anyone who challenges a friend of Adrien to fashion is a foolish fool who fools.
It's because everyone is actually a Spade. This is my conclusion.
no subject
Ben could definitely be a Spade. Or a Club. I could easily see him as a Club. I cannot however see Avery in the Spades ever. Unless she became slightly unhinged. Also, imagine for a moment: Alasdair, a Spade. Alasdair. A Spade.
no subject
...I'm not laughing at the idea of Allie the Spade you're laughing I'm not laughinpfffffff.
no subject
He would be the nicest Spade ever. He would basically be the same as he is now except possibly be unconcerned about the societal effects of stabbing. I don't know, that's all I can come up with as I wait for that day to end.
no subject
I mean, I guess Annie is a really nice Spade. And Michael's not so bad. He would be like them. /o/
no subject
It's true. He'd be in Club Annie and Michael and would have probably moved out of the Castle for general personal safety several years ago.
no subject
So really Club Michael. Club Annie is more staying in the Castle and marrying a pretty Spadey Spade but giving no fucks.
no subject
Coincidentally, this would also be his reaction to anyone grumping about being a Heart Face.
no subject
Poor Faces.

DON'T TEST HIM.

Also everyone needs a flamboyance of Adrien bursting into their life. ♥
