[18:30] <Wrengl> hi suzyq
[18:30] <Jessie> :-(
[18:30] <lbarms> yes, we did it 22
[18:30] <Bynw> hiyas suzyq
[18:30] <scribbler> We just broke the record!
[18:30] <Martine> Alright, a nice horse! You talked me into it.
[18:30] *** Retrieving #Deryni_Destinations info...
[18:30] <great_hooded_one> hi, my house is rather invaded right now
[18:30] <Shiral> Woo hoo!
[18:30] <suzyq> evening room
[18:30] *** barbmc has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[18:30] <virtualbabe> ladies and gentlemen.  we are at 22 chatters
[18:30] <Sedina> Hi barb!
[18:30] <Shiral> Hello Barbmc
[18:30] <the_Bee> hi barb
[18:30] <scribbler> make it 23!
[18:30] <lbarms> 23
[18:30] <Martine> Make that 23!
[18:30] <Jessie> so 2 yrs between each child morgan?
[18:30] <barbmc> hello
[18:30] <Captain> This is almost too much to handle - a new deryni book for six years straight
[18:30] <Wrengl> hi barbmc
[18:30] *** Bynw changes topic to 'Saint Camber's Fireside chats with Katherine Kurtz 
       [room record 23 chatters set on 12/16]'
[18:30] * scribbler sends greetings to barbmc and suzyq
[18:30] <Rambart20> howdy barbmc
[18:30] <Jessie> hello barb
[18:30] <Shiral> Manna from Heaven, yes Captain
[18:30] <KK> No, not unless it takes me that long to write them.
[18:30] * Jessie breathes a sigh of relief
[18:30] <Captain> our future looks really good as readers of yours, KK
[18:30] <KK> The rewrites won't take that long, for the most part.
[18:30] <Martine> Whew!
[18:31] <Captain> thanks for keeping us happy campers
[18:31] * Martine rubs her hands together impatiently.
[18:31] <AngusSB> KK did say one per year ;-)
[18:31] <KK> I'm doing my best.  Sometimes the characters don't cooperate, though.
[18:31] <barbmc> I know the feeling
[18:31] <Martine> Me too!
[18:31] <Jessie> when will the first re-write come out -- of Deryni Rising?
[18:31] <virtualbabe> The complaint of every author
[18:31] <Wrengl> me three
[18:31] <the_Bee> I thought she meant 1 new per year, plus 1 re-write per year
[18:31] <Shiral> Me four
[18:31] <Wrengl> lol bee
[18:31] <Captain> mich auch
[18:31] <AngusSB> well, if they did as they were told, they wouldn't be so interesting
[18:31] * RainbowDragon gives KK a big hug
[18:31] <KK> Don't know, Jessie.  We're working on the contract right now. Still early stages.
[18:32] <Martine> Don't you hate it when characters decide they don't have anything to say?
[18:32] <barbmc> What I hate most, though is having to "kill" one off
[18:32] * Jessie does a happy dance
[18:32] <Martine> Yeah, barb. I think Jessie and Sedina are still mad at me for that.
[18:32] <Wrengl> depends on the charactor.  I have one I would like to kill off.
[18:32] <Sedina> oh, don't mention killing off a character around Martine, barb
[18:32] <KK> It's definitely going to happen.  Del Rey has agreed to release the 3 titles.
[18:32] * Martine grins wickedly
[18:32] <Shiral> Or else they have way too much to say and it isn't what you thought they'd have to talk about
[18:32] * Sedina agrees with Pat about that one particular character. Annoying little snot that he is
[18:32] * Shiral whoops aloud
[18:32] <Wrengl> lol sedina
[18:33] <Rambart20> I thought you were done with Del Rey KK?
[18:33] <Martine> Who's the snot?
[18:33] <Shiral> Yip -yip-yipeeeeeeee!!!!!!!
[18:33] <Captain> KK, I didnt get you sick after I saw you at CSUSB did I?
[18:33] <KK> Yes, but they have/had the rights to the books they published.
[18:33] <Wrengl> a charactor in my novel, Martine
[18:33] <Martine> Ah!
[18:33] <KK> Somebody did, Captain, but I don't think it was you.
[18:33] <scribbler> ah....
[18:33] <suzyq> KK thanx for the deryni world,  i've read the whole series at least 3 times
[18:34] *** Kelric  has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[18:34] <Captain> oh good, I felt really sick and then spent the rest of the week (including thanksgiving) in bed
[18:34] <virtualbabe> It's the same as with composers.  Once they publish they have the rights to that work
[18:34] <KK> I'm just about well, though.  Last sinus crud going away.
[18:34] <Sedina> Are you and Scott both over your bouts with concrud?
[18:34] <lbarms> 24
[18:34] <Shiral> Hello Kelric
[18:34] <Bynw> hiyas Kelric
[18:34] <Sedina> Hi Kelric!
[18:34] * scribbler sends greetings to Kelric
[18:34] <scribbler> 24!
[18:34] <Martine> Hi Kelric!
[18:34] *** Bynw changes topic to 'Saint Camber's Fireside chats with Katherine Kurtz
  [room record 24 chatters set on 12/16]'
[18:34] <Shiral> The record has just jumped up yet another notch
[18:34] <Wrengl> hi kelric
[18:34] <Rambart20> howdy kelric!
[18:34] <Shiral> Now we just need Jasta
[18:34] <KK> I always felt ok.  Just a cold, and not that bad a one.  Scott had it worse.
[18:34] <Kelric> howdy all.  don't mind me,  I'm watching via nfl.com the 49ers trash the Dolphins.
[18:34] <Captain> wow....24!
[18:34] <RainbowDragon> 24 chatters!!!
[18:34] <virtualbabe> Wendy Carlos only recently got back her music from Columbia
[18:34] <scribbler> Kelric -- I'm listening on the radio....
[18:34] <Captain> during the week there are never more than 7-8 of us
[18:34] <Kelric> 21-0 2 minute warning 4th quarter.
[18:34] <KK> Scott's ok now, too.  He was about 3 days ahead of me, and felt far worse.
[18:35] <AngusSB> how's Scott's book coming on?
[18:35] <Shiral> Poor Scott
[18:35] <Martine> That must have been one MISERABLE flight home.
[18:35] <scribbler> So that's why I couldn't find "The Well-Tempered Synthesizer" till now, VB! Just got it on CD....
[18:35] <KK> Scott just got back from Scotland tonight.  He starts back in on book projexts tomorrow.
[18:35] <Captain> Its good he is feeling better
[18:35] <Martine> Ooooo! Scotland!!
[18:35] <Sedina> Ooo, Scotland.  I'm jealous
[18:35] <Bynw> cools!
[18:35] <Sedina> LOL Martine
[18:35] <virtualbabe> WTC was just released, for the first time on CD
[18:35] <Shiral> Och Aye, verra jealous
[18:35] <Captain> I lost 15 lbs during that week with the crud
[18:35] * Martine wants to take a horseback tour of Scotland, too!
[18:35] * Bynw must have book 3 of "Knights of the Blood"
[18:36] <scribbler> A Scott in Scotland? What's next, an Ire in Ireland?  ;)
[18:36] <KK> Mine didn't start until about 4 days after we got home.  Scott slept about 48 hours right after we got home.
[18:36] <Sedina> That's it, Martine...  Definitely stowing away in your luggage.
[18:36] <Shiral> Shoot, let's just tour the British Isles <G>
[18:36] * Wrengl agrees with bynw
[18:36] <Martine> Ah, we'll give you a horse for that one too, Sedina!
[18:36] <Martine> Just have to blindfold you so you can't see all the kilts!
[18:36] <Sedina> Of course, if we went to Scotland, as least I could get us the FULL tour of Castle Fraser.  *g*  Gotta love those family ties and all
[18:36] <Shiral> You won't SEE anything if you're crammed into the luggage!
[18:36] <Martine> You're on, Shiral! Make it six weeks!
[18:36] <Shiral> Yes!
[18:37] <Wrengl> think I'll tag with y'all
[18:37] <KK> Sedina, do you have a soft spot for Clan Fraser?
[18:37] <Shiral> Come along Pat <G>
[18:37] <Martine> Try anything in a kilt.
[18:37] <Shiral> Bring Thumper!
[18:37] <Captain> I've always wanted to try on a kilt
[18:37] <Sedina> Katherine - I am a member of the Fraser of Lovat clan.
[18:37] <Shiral> Especially if it's a  MAN in a kilt <EG>
[18:37] <Wrengl> can't bring thumper - 6 months quarantine
[18:37] <Sedina> My paternal grandmother is a Fraser
[18:37] <Shiral> Oh rats, that's right
[18:37] <scribbler> Sedina -- and you haven't read the Adept series? Shame on you!
[18:37] * Bynw would wear a kilt if he had one ... the proper way too
[18:37] * Sedina hides
[18:38] <Shiral> Hit those books, Sedina!!
[18:38] <Wrengl> you MUST read the adept sedina.
[18:38] <Sedina> Sorry!  I have the first book though...but I'm in the middle of another one
[18:38] <KK> LOL, Bynw.
[18:38] <virtualbabe> Sedina's related to Peregrine?
[18:38] <Captain> Pat, did I ever tell you that Sedina sent me pics of Thumper and others
[18:38] <Shiral> Tika would like that, Bynw <G>
[18:38] <KK> MY SCA name is Bevin Fraser of Stirling.
[18:38] <Martine> Sedina's in the middle of a rather attractive fictional red-headed scot at the moment
[18:38] <Wrengl> no you did not captain.  glad you got pics of him
[18:38] <Captain> very cute
[18:38] <Shiral> Och, Wee Jamie Fraser, yes
[18:38] <Bynw> read the adept books Sedina ... very good stories there
[18:38] <Sedina> Katherine - I noticed that when I got my first DA zine.  *g* Now you understand my "slight" obsession with all thing Scottish.  *g*
[18:38] <KK> Aha.  I just started the latest Jamie Fraser myself.
[18:38] <Wrengl> he was especially cute in his KILT!
[18:39] <Wrengl> worn the proper way, of course!
[18:39] <Shiral> You'll like them.... they'll keep you occupied until Childe Morgan... <G>
[18:39] <Captain> actually she sent a bunch of pics of darkover and I got to see everyone that I have been chatting with these past two weeks
[18:39] <lbarms> The Fiery Cross?
[18:39] * virtualbabe looks up interested. regimental?
[18:39] <KK> Yes.
[18:39] <lbarms> I am reading that also
[18:39] <Sedina> I'm only on book 3 of the series so far...though last night I read a good 300 pages of Voyager and am sure that I'll be having to hit the bookstore tomorrow.  *g*
[18:39] <scribbler> Not everyone -- I'm not there, Captain.... :(
[18:39] * lbarms winks at Jessie
[18:39] <Martine> Haven't had time to pick up Fiery Cross yet. I can't wait!
[18:39] <Wrengl> nor was jessie
[18:39] <Captain> KK, what do you think of Stephen Lawhead's crusade books?
[18:40] <Captain> I dont think I have met you scribbler?
[18:40] <KK> It was on sale at my local bookstore.  Just started it last night.
[18:40] <KK> I think I've read one of them, Cap.
[18:40] <scribbler> I think I've seen you in the newsgroup -- I'm Roberta K. when I'm not chatting.....
[18:40] * Sedina thinks that one of the best benefits of her job is that she gets a discount at the Barnes and Noble on campus. She uses it OFTEN
[18:40] <Captain> oh, yeah! nice to meet you Roberta
[18:40] <Rambart20> hey good series to read is the alienist
[18:40] <Shiral> Ask us if we're surprised, Sedina <G>
[18:40] * scribbler turns bright Healer's Green with envy for Sedina.....
[18:41] * Martine thinks living one mile away from Barnes & Noble is bad for the budget...
[18:41] * Captain drools at Sedina's B&N discount
[18:41] * virtualbabe would love to get discounts in Chapters'
[18:41] * Shiral agrees with Martine
[18:41] <Sedina> Martine - when I first started my job at the university, I only lived a couple of blocks from the bookstore.  Talk about bad for the budget
[18:41] * Kelric agrees with everybody
[18:41] <AngusSB> ?me wishes he lived near a Barnes & Noble, to save money
[18:41] <Martine> I used to get them for free when I worked for the B&N catalog!
[18:41] <Martine> That was budget friendly.
[18:41] <scribbler> Martine -- try having a crush on a guy that works at WaldenBooks -- the best thing about that was the guy was the one who introduced me to the Deryni Universe.....
[18:42] <Martine> I met my hubby at the B&N catalog!
[18:42] <Kelric> booyah!  niners blank Miami
[18:42] <Martine> Got a hubby and about 2000 books (no exaggeration)
[18:42] * Bynw met his wife online
[18:42] <Captain> LOL, Martine
[18:42] <Sedina> Ouch, Martine!  That's good, but I'd hate to move all the books
[18:42] <Shiral> Did you get a store discount on the husband? <G>
[18:42] <lbarms> lol
[18:42] <KK> Martine, that sounds like a very good deal!  :-)
[18:42] <Martine> Yeah, the hubby was only $99!
[18:42] <KK> LOL, Shiral.
[18:42] <Shiral> LOL
[18:42] <Captain> my wife and I had to start checking books out of the library since we couldnt afford to support our 'habit'
[18:42] <scribbler> I met my hubby in high school -- I chased him for 13 years till he caught me.... ;)
[18:42] <Sedina> LOL
[18:42] <Kelric> lol
[18:43] <Kelric> well,  work beckons :(
[18:43] <Shiral> Libraries are good for this, Captain <G>
[18:43] *** Kelric  Quit
[18:43] <Captain> although I still buy KK's books
[18:43] <virtualbabe> Katherine, besides you (of course) who are your favorite authors?
[18:43] <KK> Ah, loyal Captain!
[18:43] * Shiral thinks she will revisit the bookstores and troll for possible mates..
[18:43] <Gamgee> FOUND IT!!!!!  Either the name or the following device associated it (or both) were registered in January of 1974:
[18:43] <Gamgee> Vert, three fraises Or, pierced vert, on a chief Or a rose gules barbed and seeded proper.
[18:43] <scribbler> LOL Shiral!
[18:43] <Captain> KK, I felt like a school boy meeting his favorite female rock star when I met you at CSUSB
[18:44] <KK> Well done, Gamgee!
[18:44] <Shiral> You should hear Katherine's great Drum solos, Captain
[18:44] * scribbler would love to find a good book on heraldry.....
[18:44] <KK> Wow, I'm honored, Captain!
[18:44] * Martine will play the keyboard!
[18:44] <virtualbabe> Don't worry cap, I'll pro'lly feel that way if i ever meet Katherine too
[18:44] <Captain> I said all silly goofy things.....like, "you're my favorite author of ALL time"
[18:44] * ash will play the fool
[18:44] <Martine> I'd do the same thing, Captain!
[18:44] <ash> and often, the spoons :)
[18:44] <Captain> "Its so amazing to finally meet you"
[18:45] <KK> Any of you going to make it to Arisia?
[18:45] <Captain> thank you for not giggling at me
[18:45] <Martine> What's Arisia?
[18:45] <Shiral> I felt that way at my first KK con
[18:45] <AngusSB> Catain, we've all done that-  KK can confirm that with me anyway :-)
[18:45] <Captain> :D
[18:45] <Ghostgames> Whereas I just say "here's another contract, please sign here" and keep all my silly/goofy fan thoughts to myself when I see Katherine. ;-)
[18:45] * Bynw raises his hand
[18:45] <Bynw> We are Katherine :-)
[18:45] <KK> Arisia is a con in Boston in mid-January.
[18:45] <Shiral> Had mental picture of me as village idiot
[18:45] <Captain> LOL Shiral
[18:45] <Martine> Oh! Striking distance of home! Where can I get info on Arisia?
[18:45] <Captain> that is exactly what I was feeling
[18:46] <scribbler> Probably not -- will be busy with my last class before FINALLY graduating! (hopefully -- still need to register....)
[18:46] <Ghostgames> I'd be happy to host a Deryni part at my house around Arisia -- I live in Randolph, about 20 minutes south of Boston (assuming the traffic's moving, that is)....
[18:46] <Captain> I think you need to come back to CA soon, KK
[18:46] <KK> We should have info on the website, don't we, Shiral?
[18:46] <virtualbabe> I wish.  I am planning for Darkover next year.
[18:46] <Shiral> Alas, I shot my travel wad on  Darkover
[18:46] <Ghostgames> Or I could arrange a party at a local restaurant or the Museum of Science or someplace fun. :-)
[18:46] <Bynw> Cools Ann
[18:46] <Shiral> I think so yes. But let me double check
[18:46] * Martine sings a Gloria in thanksgiving...
[18:46] <Wrengl> Kathi and I will be at Arisia Katherine
[18:46] <Martine> If I can get the time off work, I'll be there!
[18:46] <KK> Ann, your house would be good.  Then we coul dmeet your horses.
[18:47] <the_Bee> try www.arisia.org
[18:47] <Martine> Thanks, bee!
[18:47] <AngusSB> Well, I need to get ready for work.  I'll be back next week, but if any of you won't be, have a good festive season
[18:47] <Ghostgames> Except my horses are in Holliston, half an hour away. :-/
[18:47] <Shiral> Yes, there's a link to the Arisia web page on the Current Projects and Appearances page at DD
[18:47] <the_Bee> I;m signed up for Arisia
[18:47] <virtualbabe> Merry Christmas angus
[18:47] <Sedina> Have a wonderful night, Angus.  It was good to meet you
[18:47] <KK> Well, we could make an expedition.
[18:47] <scribbler> have a good week, Angus....see you after the holidays....
[18:47] <Shiral> Bye Angus, Merry Christmas
[18:47] <Bynw> cya AngusSB...thanks for stopping in and feel free to come anytime
[18:47] * Martine LOVES horses.
[18:47] <KK> Christmas blesssings, Angus.
[18:47] <Martine> Bye Angus!
[18:47] <Rambart20> bye angus merry christmas
[18:48] *** ash  Quit (Connection reset by ArchBishop Edmund Loris)
[18:48] <Shiral> I wish I COULD go to Arisia...=o(
[18:48] <Shiral> LOL!
[18:48] <Sedina> LOL
[18:48] <Martine> LOL!
[18:48] <Captain> me too
[18:48] <scribbler> LOL!!!!!
[18:48] <lbarms> how'd he do that
[18:48] <Ghostgames> Jennifer Brinn's coming up for Arisia, too, she's crashing at my place. (I have some extra room for anyone who doesn't mind sleeping on a futon or on the floor.)
[18:48] <Captain> we are stuck on the west coast Shiral
[18:48] <Sedina> That's too perfect
[18:48] <Shiral> Yes we are, Captain
[18:48] *** AngusSB Quit
[18:48] <KK> How did Ash do that?
[18:48] * scribbler grabs a monk and pounds Loris with it unmercifully....
[18:48] <Shiral> And so is Scribbler
[18:48] <Rambart20> I wish I could go to arisia too;-(
[18:48] * Martine takes her riding crop and beats Loris bloody
[18:49] <Captain> scribbler, are you from SF too?
[18:49] <the_Bee> I live in boston, but may stay at the hotel so I don't miss the late parties
[18:49] * Bynw grins
[18:49] <Ghostgames> KK: connections, obviously -- of the wrong sort! Ash has made some powerful enemies! :-)
[18:49] <scribbler> I'm in Palo Alto (next town over from Shiral)
[18:49] <Shiral> It would have been hard enough if I hadn't had to buy a new monitor unexpectedly this month
[18:49] <KK> Scribbler, is a monk aerodynamic enough to pound peer with?  Or Loris?
[18:49] *** Sedina`  has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[18:49] *** Sedina  Quit (Connection reset by ArchBishop Edmund Loris)
[18:49] <Shiral> Wb, Sedina
[18:49] <Sedina`> eek...
[18:49] <Shiral> Loris gotcha
[18:49] *** Sedina` is now known as Sedina
[18:49] * virtualbabe taunts Loris with a picture of duncan Mcolean in full clerical garb
[18:49] <Rambart20> wb sedina
[18:49] <Sedina> I think he got me just because I was laughing at him
[18:49] <barbmc> I suppose it would depend on the monk
[18:49] <scribbler> he's been fasting for a loooong time, KK.....
[18:49] <KK> Bynw, did you do that?
[18:49] * Martine flashes her aura at Loris
[18:50] <Shiral> Loris hates laughter
[18:50] * Bynw grins again
[18:50] <Captain> lol
[18:50] <Shiral> Bynw's been busy.... <G>
[18:50] <KK> You guys are amazing.
[18:50] <Bynw> of course i did that :-)
[18:50] <Sedina> Well, you have to admit, it's quite appropriate for the room
[18:50] <Shiral> It sure is!
[18:50] <KK> Will it stay that way?
[18:50] <Martine> I love it!
[18:50] <Bynw> until i change it again
[18:50] <Sedina> Oh, please...let it stay that way!
[18:50] <Shiral> Please!
[18:50] <KK> Yes!
[18:51] <Bynw> it will be that way for awhile
[18:51] <KK> Talk about a customized chat room....  :-)
[18:51] <barbmc> I often wonder if perhaps Loris was a secret deryni
[18:51] <Martine> Now THAT would make interesting reading.
[18:51] <KK> It would explain a lot, I suppose.
[18:51] <Captain> I love this chat room - you guys save my sanity during the week
[18:51] <scribbler> Instead of disconnected, maybe users could be excommunicated?
[18:51] <lbarms> mine too Cap
[18:51] <Shiral> We're glad to be here for ya
[18:51] <Bynw> well that message is server wide not just the chat room ... so other rooms will now see Loris doing the peers
[18:51] <Captain> oh hi laura
[18:52] <Rambart20> mine too
[18:52] <Captain> didnt see you there
[18:52] <KK> Hoo-hoo!
[18:52] <Captain> I laughed so hard during that food fight last week
[18:52] *** ash  has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[18:52] <Captain> and the assimilation was hilarious too
[18:52] <Shiral> They'll be wondering who the heck is this Loris guy?
[18:52] <Martine> WB ash!
[18:52] <the_Bee> wb again ash
[18:52] <Shiral> WB, Ash
[18:52] * lbarms has no idea what the Captain could be referring to
[18:52] <Sedina> LOL Laura
[18:52] <ash> *growls*
[18:52] <Martine> So, introduce them to Deryni books! Recruit more fans, Shiral!
[18:52] <scribbler> WB ash
[18:52] <Captain> LOL, very funny, "pie in the face" Laura
[18:53] * the_Bee wipes the gravy off her face
[18:53] <Shiral> excellent idea and strategy, Martine
[18:53] <ash> i am having a very bad night
[18:53] <Captain> KK, is Scott from Scotland?
[18:53] <Sedina> I want to know how I assimilated people when I was in the middle of a meeting, for heaven's sake!
[18:53] <virtualbabe> speaking of excommunications, I was wondering something
[18:53] <KK> His people were, a few generations back.
[18:53] <Shiral> You're a talented lass, Sedina
[18:53] <Captain> Sedina, your powers are every reaching
[18:53] <lbarms> you are verra verra powerful oh great leader of the borg
[18:53] <KK> Yes, Sedina?
[18:53] <Bynw> you are the head of the Collective Sedina of Borg
[18:53] <Captain> remember, in the end, you even assimilated the Captain
[18:54] <KK> Yes, VB?
[18:54] <ash> The influence is strong sedina... takes a iron cast will to resist...
[18:54] * Martine feels the pull of assimilation
[18:54] <Sedina> LOL KK - for a second I was wondering if I had missed something.
[18:54] *** Shiral is now known as SedinaII
[18:54] <ash> if my contribution was anything to go by you also assimilated the beatles...
[18:54] <Sedina> I'm just glad that my powers were strong enough to keep me from laughing out loud during my meeting!
[18:54] <SedinaII> Oh dear, I have been assimilated!
[18:54] *** lbarms is now known as Sedina2
[18:54] <virtualbabe> In DC, when they excommunicated Morgan, one candle remained lit.  whose candle was it?
[18:54] *** Captain is now known as Sedina_3
[18:54] *** Martine is now known as Sedina4
[18:54] <Sedina> Oh no...my collective is back!
[18:54] *** ash is now known as Sedina5
[18:54] *** Bynw sets mode: +o Sedina
[18:54] <barbmc> Arilan's of course
[18:54] *** scribbler is now known as Sedina6
[18:54] *** Sedina4 is now known as Martine
[18:55] <KK> Would have been Arilan's, I expect.
[18:55] <SedinaII> I suspected as much <G>
[18:55] <the_Bee> or Cardiel's
[18:55] <Sedina5> is this like, a new part of the  12 days of christmas?
[18:55] *** SedinaII is now known as Shiral
[18:55] <Sedina> Oh, thanks, Bynw...forgot to do a hop when I came back in
[18:55] *** Sedina5 is now known as Ash
[18:55] *** Sedina6 is now known as scribbler
[18:55] <Bynw> send healing energies to Teeks ... she's got a cold right now and needs some :(
[18:55] <Ghostgames> Now my list of channel members is *really* confusing, since for some reason Snak's listing everyone twice and Sedina multiple multiple times. :-)
[18:55] <Shiral> Belated concrud, poor Tika
[18:55] *** Sedina2 is now known as lbarms
[18:55] <Sedina> LOL  I live to confuse you, Ann
[18:55] <scribbler> I have a cold too....I can empathize.... :(
[18:56] * scribbler sends huggles to Tika....
[18:56] *** Sedina_3 is now known as Captain
[18:56] <the_Bee> Sedina is a Borg.  She assimilated everyone, Ghostgames
[18:56] <Shiral> I have a persistant cough and sore throat left over from the Crud
[18:56] <Shiral> Resistance was futile
[18:56] <Captain> KK, I have a question about Evaine
[18:56] <Ghostgames> I prescribe Hershey's Good Night Kisses hot chocolate for all with colds. It may contribute to your runny nose (dairy products having that effect on many people), but it *will* make you feel better for a little
while. :-)
[18:56] <barbmc> Time for the Scotch Cure, Shiral?
[18:56] <KK> Yes, Captain?
[18:57] <Shiral> "on the first day of Christmas, the collective assimilated me..."
[18:57] <Shiral> Hmm, too many syllables
[18:57] <Captain> could Evaine have performed the "Camber Release" maneuver with others and not have forfeited her life in the end?
[18:57] * Ash recommends the cure provided by his Uncle Jack
[18:57] <Ash> ;)
[18:57] <Martine> Don't get me started on filks, Shiral!
[18:57] <the_Bee> what about Evaine, Captain?
[18:57] <Shiral> Sorry, I'll be good now
[18:57] <scribbler> yeah!
[18:57] <Sedina> Martine - you've still got more of Into the Woods to do first. *g*
[18:57] <Martine> I might recruit you to help me finish "into the woods"!
[18:57] <KK> With more preparation, more knowledge, she might have survived.
[18:58] <virtualbabe> We are windows of Borg.  You will be assimilated.  your computer already has been assimilated.  Resistance is futile
[18:58] *** Golux Quit (Connection reset by ArchBishop Edmund Loris)
[18:58] *** Tika  has joined #Deryni_Destinations 
[18:58] * scribbler slaps Loris silly....with the help of Duncan and Morgan AND Kelson....
[18:58] <Shiral> Hello Tika
[18:58] <Captain> We were chatting about this the other day - it seems like she went ahead with it without Joram when he might have been able to help her survive
[18:58] <Sedina> Hi Tika! 
[18:58] <barbmc> I think she might have needed more deryni to augment her power.  THat would have left the haven terribly under defended
[18:58] <the_Bee> GHO, are you going to let Loris do that to your mom?
[18:58] <scribbler> WB Tika ---
[18:58] <Martine> Hi Tika!
[18:58] <Rambart20> howdy tika
[18:59] <Tika> I can see we are going to need an entire new set of popup goodies for Loris ;)
[18:59] <Captain> hi Tika! I made it her on Sunday as promised
[18:59] <KK> But she was afraid that Joram wouldn't even let her try it.
[18:59] * Sedina is curious as to how both Bynw and Tika are managing to be on if they only have the one computer
[18:59] <scribbler> I have a cold too, Teeks....hope you feel better soon.....
[18:59] <Tika> maybe I should write a Deryni customized mIRC client hehehe
[18:59] <Ash> Sedina: temporal physics and multiple dimensions
[18:59] <Shiral> And Joram probably WOULD have hit the roof if he realized the risk she was taking
[18:59] *** me  has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[18:59] <Captain> It seemed like she was so often level headed with this stuff (although not as much as Joram), but more than her father
[18:59] <Tika> thanks y'all.... I'm doing all the natural goodies for the cold but if this doesn't let up by tomorrow it's doctor time....
[19:00] <Rambart20> KK could the spell be attmepted in the future the right way
[19:00] <Captain> but it seems like it was somewhat irresponsible of her to do it alone and risk leaving her kids behind
[19:00] <lbarms> this is how Sedina
[19:00] <Martine> She didn't really seem close to her kids, though - not the way mothers are today.
[19:00] <KK> Maybe she'd just had enough of struggling--and she missed Rhys.
[19:00] <Wrengl> wb tika
[19:00] <me> just like this
[19:00] <Tika> yup ;)    Bynw stepped away for a moment
[19:00] <Captain> SEE???
[19:00] <barbmc> Also, remember, she had lost a child as well as a husband. Half her "soul" might already have been in the afterworld with them
[19:00] <Tika> LOL Captain
[19:00] * the_Bee sends Tika a soothing posset of whiskey, lemon juice and honey
[19:00] <Captain> this is what I was saying in chat the other day
[19:01] <Shiral> She seemed pretty resigned about going into that last goodnight, yes
[19:01] <Captain> It was about Rhys!
[19:01] <scribbler> I think she didn't really realize what was required till it was too late; but she DID make provisions for her kids, and she REALLY missed Rhys.....
[19:01] * Tika is glad that Captain got his answer :)
[19:01] <Captain> LOL, Tika
[19:01] <Shiral> Is Bynw tied to a chair and struggling frantically in the background, TIka?
[19:01] <Tika> ROFL!!
[19:01] *** me  Quit
[19:01] <Sedina> Well, I kind of figured as much....  *g*   
[19:01] <Martine> Maybe Bynw is fluffing up the hay?
[19:01] *** Rasyr  has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[19:01] <Captain> you guys knew I had to bring it up the first time I arrived here
[19:01] * Ash falls off his chair laughing at the Billy Connolly DVD he's watching
[19:02] <Tika> no Shiral, he willingly got up.... I'll check him for fever when he is back :)
[19:02] <the_Bee> hi Rasyr
[19:02] * scribbler sends greetings to Rasyr
[19:02] <Shiral> Hello Rasyr
[19:02] <Ash> gods its been a while since i've seen some of this
[19:02] <Tika> hey Rasyr!
[19:02] <Tika> how's things in Rome?
[19:02] <KK> Tika, the Vicks lozenges with zinc and Vit. C--Vital, they're called here--are great, either to stave off a cold or to ease its symptoms, if it gets you anyway.
[19:02] <Shiral> What a noble, selfless husband, Tika
[19:02] <Sedina> We're glad that you did, Captain.  It was a very good conversation the other day when you first brought it up
[19:02] * Captain waves frantically to Tika and Sedina with excitement
[19:02] <Rasyr> Howdy All!
[19:02] <Sedina> Hi Rasyr
[19:02] * Tika giggles at Captain, knowing we have another one hooked :)
[19:02] <Martine> Hi Rasyr
[19:02] <Rambart20> howdy Rasyr* waves from the Iowan tundra
[19:02] <Shiral> Oh yes, he's definitely hooked
[19:03] * Captain nods seriously to Tika
[19:03] <KK> Hello, Rasyr.  Who're you?
[19:03] <scribbler> KK -- thanks; my sweetie is going to make a special trip to the drugstore to look for them for me (isn't he sweet?)....
[19:03] <Sedina> Tika - we got him hooked early on.  *g*  There's no turning back for him now.
[19:03] <Rasyr> what do you mean hooked (as he mumbles around the sharp metal thing in his mouth)
[19:03] <virtualbabe> well all, I'm afraid i've got to be moving on.  I won't be here next week so a merry christmas to all.
[19:03] <Shiral> Sorry Rasyr, we were talking about another chatter <G>
[19:03] <Tika> Rasyr, KK is Katherine Kurtz, FYI :)
[19:03] <Martine> Merry Christmas VB
[19:03] <KK> Merry Christmas to you.
[19:03] <Shiral> Bye VB, Merry Christmas

[19:04] <Captain> I am addicted
[19:04] <Rasyr> yeppers... Rome Ga..
