Blueblood Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Hello, Canterlot! I've seen some other members set up these threads from time to time, and they looked like fun, so I figured I'd give it a go!Just a caveat, no personal details will be revealed, of course. But besides that, I'm open to any questions.Also, I have a few areas of expertise, if you want to take advantage of what I've learned about a few subjects:1. Geography: University major and field of work. Not just a matter of where things are, but being able to explain why they are there, and not anywhere else. Also included are maps and general cartography, in case you were curious.2. Books, fiction and non. If you're looking for a reading recommendation, I've got you covered.3. Wine. A hobby of mine, not near as incomprehensible nor snobbish as many people suppose.4. General trivia. I have a mind like an air filter; any stray scrap will get picked up, and sometimes it prohibits air flow.Ask away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frogmyre Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Two questions then!First! Why is your avatar Blueblood?Second! Favorite Victorian author? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueblood Posted October 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 My avatar is Blueblood because I'm his player both in WOE and CC, plus I have more fun playing him than any other character I've got in my roster right now.Ooh, favorite Victorian author... well, Arthur Conan Doyle is technically Late Victorian, though he kept writing well after her reign. I've tried multiple times to get into Dickens and Thackeray, but I always had trouble with them; I prefer tighter to looser construction of books, hence my gravitation to the mystery writer. I tend in that case to prefer Edwardian-era writers, at least in terms of English literature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If playing Blueblood is anywhere as near fun Rping as he is writing, then from my fic reading experience, I can agree!2. Ah, I see. Dickens can be a... bit hard to read. *Glares at the Pickwick Papers for being such a long one.*Well then, one, technically two, more questions! Ever read Les Miserables? If so, what did you think of Waterloo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueblood Posted October 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Well then, one, technically two, more questions! Ever read Les Miserables? If so, what did you think of Waterloo?No, I never got through that tome. I prefer Alexandre Dumas to Victor Hugo, as far as 19th century French writers go. I don't think the Count of Monte Christo is all that much shorter than Les Miserables, but it goes at a much better pace, and has less digression.

Blueblood Posted October 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 CCGs?Ooh, no, at any rate, not any physical ones. I used to make a regular thing of trying all the new digital ones that were coming out, but I can never find the time for them these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
