[18:05] <Dov> things all right with wrengl?
[18:05] <KK> She was hanging in there a few days ago, when I got an
update from her.

Dov

chemo.
[18:06] <slobbit> hi kk
[18:06] <Mistyck> very cool, ambush
[18:06] <RainbowDragon> She's hanging in there and walking every day

[18:07] <RainbowDragon> slobbit is formerly known as babayaga
[18:07] <Mistyck> she's grilling salmon, so she may have disappeared

[18:08] * Olympia has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[18:08] <DeryniBot> Olympia enters the chat as RainbowDragon passes
around a plate of cheese.
[18:08] <Olympia> aha
[18:08] <Mistyck> Nancy! great to see you!
[18:08] <Shiral> How's the Scottish housing market KK
[18:08] <RainbowDragon> have you done any more house hunting, KK?
[18:08] <Bynw> nancy! :-)
[18:08] <Shiral> Hi Olympia
[18:08] <RainbowDragon> gmta, Shiral
[18:08] <Olympia> Alo y'all
[18:08] <KK> Anyway, I really do intend to get my updates to the
webmistresses for the website this week.
[18:08] <the_Bee> hi Nancy! long time no see
[18:08] <Dov> how's everyone at home, kk?
[18:08] <KK> nancy! hello! huggles!
[18:08] <RainbowDragon> updates will be good :-)
[18:08] <Olympia> much hugging all around and thank you, Shiral, for
reminding me to stop by!
[18:08] <Shiral> Excellent, KK
[18:08] <Shiral> Anytime
[18:09] <Shiral> =o)
[18:09] <RainbowDragon> Can somebody IM Martine?
[18:09] <KK> We're looking at another restoration prospect here in
Ireland, that we've had our eyes on for nearly 20 years.
[18:09] <Shiral> It's the first time I've been able to be here myself
[18:09] <Shiral> Martine is temporarily offline
[18:09] <Olympia> I don't see Martine online
[18:09] <RainbowDragon> okay
[18:09] <Mistyck> ahh...that would be cool too
[18:09] <RainbowDragon> what place have you been considering, KK?
[18:09] <Shiral> She's doing homework for her photography class
[18:10] <KK> It's a castle south of here, a former military barracks
that was castellated in about 1802.
[18:10] <Mistyck> neat
[18:10] <Wrengl> hi katherine
[18:10] <KK> There she is!
[18:10] <Olympia> maybe John and I should pack up our worldly goods and
come hire out as labor, Katherine!
[18:10] <KK> You'd be most welcome....
[18:11] <Olympia> John can work and I'll cook
[18:11] <Mistyck> good cooks are hard to find
[18:11] <Wrengl> tuesday is the fourth of the six chemos this round
[18:11] <Wrengl> hi nancy
[18:11] <Olympia> How are you feeling overall, Miss Pat?
[18:11] <the_Bee> good luck, pat
[18:12] <Shiral> Indeed, good luck, Pat
[18:12] <Mistyck> most definitely
[18:12] <Shiral> Shrink that tumor!
[18:12] <KK> amen!
[18:12] <Mistyck> no tumors allowed in here!
[18:12] <Shiral> And I've STILL outlawed Cancer, so be sure to tell
your oncologist!
[18:12] <Wrengl> feeling pretty good
[18:12] <Wrengl> been doing a lot of walking
[18:12] <Wrengl> and some writing
[18:12] <Shiral> Both good
[18:13] <Olympia> I wish we could walk - it's been raining cats, dogs
and frogs here!
[18:13] <slobbit> glad to hear that Wrengl , especially about the
writing :-)
[18:13] <Mistyck> great about the writing...knew about the walking
[18:13] <KK> And finding of good websites!
[18:13] <Shiral> We are momentarily expecting toads, yes
[18:13] <Wrengl> lol
[18:13] <Wrengl> we heard you were getting lots of rain, shiral
[18:13] <Wrengl> send some our way
[18:13] <Wrengl> we need it!
[18:13] * Kagi has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[18:13] <DeryniBot> Hi there Kagi! Welcome to the chat.
[18:13] <Mistyck> or our way
[18:13] <Mistyck> hiyas Kagi
[18:13] <Wrengl> hi kagi
[18:13] <the_Bee> hi kagi
[18:13] <Olympia> we have webs between our toes, don't we Shiral?
[18:13] <Shiral> You can have it all as far as I'm concerned
[18:13] <Kagi> 'ello
[18:14] <Shiral> I think I'm getting mildewy, yes
[18:14] <Bynw> hi kagi
[18:14] * Kagi waves to everyone
[18:14] <Shiral> Hello Kagi
[18:14] <Olympia> Hi, Kagi and ambush and slobbit (people I haven't met
yet)
[18:14] <KK> We're starting to get spring here, and daffodils are in
full bloom!
[18:14] <Shiral> Nancy, I thought webbed toes were normal! Are you
saying they're not?
[18:14] <Wrengl> we have daffodils, crocuses, and hyacinths
[18:15] * ambush is bynw's stepson and tika's biological son
[18:15] <ambush> and an avid kk fan
[18:15] <Olympia> Whoo hoo, way to go Ambush!
[18:15] <Wrengl> indeed he is
[18:15] <KK> Wrengl, you have green thumbs!
[18:15] <ambush> ohhh....kk........i've been reading the Adept novels
[18:15] <KK> Ambush is cool. We met at the last Darkover.
[18:16] <Wrengl> well i try
[18:16] <Bynw> you're famous now ambush
[18:16] <KK> And...?
[18:16] <Olympia> Of course Ambush is cool - his mom totally rocks1
[18:16] <Wrengl> just put out my rosemary and bay plants
[18:16] <Shiral> I can kill almost any plant, given sufficient time
[18:16] * Braddoc has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[18:16] <DeryniBot> Hi there Braddoc! Welcome to the chat.
[18:16] <Wrengl> and the potted rosebush
[18:16] <Wrengl> hello braddoc
[18:16] <Shiral> Hi Braddoc
[18:16] <the_Bee> hi braddoc
[18:16] <Mistyck> hi Braddoc
[18:16] <Olympia> Hi Braddoc
[18:16] <Braddoc> hi..so who's Katherine Kurtz?
[18:16] <KK> We used to have an ancient rosemary bush outside the
drawing room window, but the gardeners got overenthusiastic one summer.
[18:17] <Wrengl> some of my herbs are starting to peek up
[18:17] <Olympia> oh no, Katherine! not the rosemary?
[18:17] <Wrengl> poor rosemary
[18:17] <Dov> aww
[18:17] <the_Bee> Katherine Kurtz is KK--our favorite author
[18:17] <KK> It was huge and bushy, and probably close to 100 years
old.
[18:17] <Shiral> I cut rosemary from my mom's bush, fortunately, it's a
very enthusiastic one
[18:17] * Braddoc has left #Deryni_Destinations
[18:17] <Mistyck> about the rosemary bush
[18:17] <the_Bee> author of the Deryni and Adept series of novels
[18:17] <Wrengl> that with fresh tarragon and lemon juice and sumac and
olive oil make a lovely marinade for chicken breasts
[18:17] <Shiral> Ack.
[18:18] <Olympia> We're going to put in arugula and watercress once it
stops raining - Katherine, I had the fresh stuff from Albra's garden
and wow!!!
[18:18] <Bynw> Olympia, Kagi is actually a player in my game for like
the last 6+ years
[18:18] <Olympia> Kagi, you have my deepest sympathy. Oops. HEY, Bynw,
don't hit me!
[18:19] <Wrengl> lol
[18:19] <Kagi> lol
[18:19] <Mistyck> Katherine, are you working on the new High Deryni
yet?
[18:19] <KK> I used to lay branchlets of rosemary on chicken before
grilling it. It was wonderful! I need to plant so more....but not
here.
[18:19] <Shiral> Rosemary and chicken is a natural pairing
[18:19] <Bynw> i wouldn't hit you Olympia :-)
[18:19] <KK> No, Mistyck. I need to do the High Deryni rewrite first.
[18:19] <Mistyck> ah, ok
[18:20] <Kagi> Bynw, you need to borrow spunky?
[18:20] <Mistyck> we were wondering if you are going to get rid of the
Appendix that explains the genetics
[18:20] <Bynw> naw Kagi
[18:20] <the_Bee> or revise it
[18:20] <KK> Might revise/expand it. I know more now than I did back
then.
[18:21] <Mistyck>
[18:21] <KK> OTOH, I may just dump it.
[18:21] <Shiral> We do too. =o)
[18:21] <Mistyck> and "googling" is actually an accepted word now
[18:21] <ambush> lol
[18:21] <ambush> yeah
[18:21] <Olympia> not in a fantasy world, it's not, Mistyck
[18:22] <Shiral> Can't picture Camber googling anyone
[18:22] <the_Bee> In Deryni Magic, you said it wan't known if the
Haldane factor could be in the female line. Did you mean the
characters don't know?
[18:22] <Mistyck> true, but it is for the authors
[18:23] <Bynw> Any idea when High Deryni will be finished ... someone
stopped in yesterday and was asking that
[18:23] <KK> I think the Haldane factor may not be as exclusive as the
Haldanes think it is. We know that some other humans can be given
Deryni-like powers. Or is it that they have Deryni heritage that just
had never been utilized or awakened? Serious questions to ponder.
[18:24] <Olympia> Those Haldanes <g>
[18:24] <Wrengl> indeed
[18:24] * Bynw thinks its just other humans that have the same
potential as the Haldanes
[18:24] <KK> I hope to get it done in the next month. And since Childe
is a December release, I'd expect that HD would be released later next
year.
[18:24] <Shiral> Both Bran Coris and Ian Howell get a "Deryni
Injection" that is, Deryni give them both powers to use, even though
they are both human
[18:24] <Mistyck> or are they descendants of blocked Deryni?
[18:24] <the_Bee> i calleed it the "Haldane Factor" as shorthand. I
didn't think they were the only ones. but is it exclusively on the Y
chromosome?
[18:25] <KK> We don't know yet.
[18:25] <the_Bee> Do we know if Maryse was Deryni?
[18:25] <Mistyck> but both Bran and Ian had Stacia as their anscestor
[18:25] <Shiral> Yes, although at the remove of several generations
[18:25] <Shiral> But good point
[18:26] <KK> But remember that we're talking about a culture in which
women don't rule. We know they don't in Torenth, and probably that
would be the case in Gwynedd--though the male line hasn't failed, so
the question hasn't arisen.
[18:26] <Olympia> :reading up: Camber doesn't have to google - he just
Knows Stuff
[18:26] <Mistyck> wasn't Queen Sinead supposed to have been almost the
equal though?
[18:26] <Shiral> Araxie might be a good candidate for the first
empowered Haldane woman
[18:26] <Wrengl> lol olympia
[18:27] <Shiral> He has to know stuff--Google hadn't been invented when
he lived!
[18:27] <ambush> mmm....true
[18:27] <KK> Araxie doesn't have to be empowered. She's already got
Deryni powers.
[18:28] <Mistyck> I can have Jake use the word "googled"
though...he lives in the modern world...just is wondering why in the
world he's a reincarnated Templar!
[18:28] <KK> Sinead was just a strong queen-consort.
[18:28] <RainbowDragon> but getting a Haldane "boost" would certainly
make things quite... interesting!
[18:28] <Shiral> It might be redundant, but perhaps taking on the
Haldane powers would jump up her powers a few levels
[18:28] <KK> I don't think that would apply for a trained Deryni.
[18:28] <Olympia> Camber is the kind of guy who just looks at you and
smiles and you feel awful about all the terrible things you've done.
[18:28] <Mistyck> it worked that way for Michaela
[18:29] <Shiral> Only if you already have a guilty conscience, Olympia
[18:29] <Shiral> =o)
[18:29] <Olympia> ::angelic smile::
[18:30] <Wrengl> tee hee
[18:30] <Shiral> Camber had one or two things on HIS conscience by the
end of his life, I'll bet
[18:30] <KK> Er, yes....
[18:30] <the_Bee> I applied for a trained deryni, but my application
was rejected;(
[18:31] <Olympia> Camber has dispensation
[18:31] <Dov> that's what the rpg is for, bee
[18:33] <Shiral> So KK, How far into Morgan's life does CM go?
[18:33] <the_Bee> Is it possible that the Y', even unactivated, gave
certain families the "edge" that helped them become rulers?
[18:33] <KK> Just through Brion's coronation.
[18:34] <Mistyck> is that after his meeting with Bethane?
[18:34] <Shiral> Wow, the third book is going to be looong
[18:34] <KK> Before Bethane. He's only 3 or 4.
[18:34] <Mistyck> ah ok
[18:34] <the_Bee> Did Brion evermeet Bethane? Alarica was 9
[18:35] <KK> I'm not proposing to tell every tiny detail of that
period.
[18:35] <Dov> will the third book explain the Green Tower?
[18:35] <Shiral> Well no. But there are some significant landmark
events of Alaric's adolescence <G>
[18:35] <the_Bee> just the significant events?
[18:35] <slobbit> KK, something tells me they aren't looking for
proposals--they're looking for answers ;-)
[18:36] <KK> I've probably said all I'm going to say about the green
tower.
[18:36] <Dov> ok
[18:37] <Mistyck> are you planning on going to any other cons besides
Darkover this year Katherine?
[18:37] <Shiral> Why would you think we'd be looking for answers,
Slobbit? I mean, just because we're CURIOUS....<G>
[18:37] <Olympia> Katherine, are you coming to Worldcon? Carl is coming
out for it
[18:37] <the_Bee> I've been wondering: we know Alaric hasn't found any
portal at Coroth. Who was the last person to know the location of the
Coroth portal(s), and what kept them from passing on the info?
[18:37] <KK> Not coming to worldcon, I'm afraid.
[18:38] <KK> Bee, don't know.
[18:38] <Olympia> Oh poo. We will miss you! There's a 40th year
Star Trek Anniversary bash 'n everything!
[18:38] * Bynw is only gonna goto 2 cons this year
[18:39] <the_Bee> If there were a portal in the Green Tower, do you
think the CC would have gone so far as to destroy it after what Lewis
did?
[18:39] <Mistyck> they should have a special guest invite for celebrity
Star Trek walkons
[18:39] <Wrengl> sorry we're going to miss worldcon this year
[18:39] <KK> Did I mention that I found the cast picture of when I was
in the first Star Trek movie? I'm bringing it out to SF to give to
Carolyn to scan so it can go ont he website. Now, if I scould jsut
locate myself in the appropriate frames of the film....
[18:39] <Wrengl> although we have attending memberships i need to look
into selling
[18:40] <Mistyck> very cool
[18:40] <Wrengl> great katherine
[18:41] * Wrengl is doing two cons also but both are east coast
[18:41] <KK> But you're going cruising, Wrengl! That's way cool, and
far more relaxing.
[18:41] <Wrengl> yes it is
[18:41] <Wrengl> and five days in seattle
[18:41] <Wrengl> before the cruise
[18:41] <Olympia> eek! cruising! ::urp::
[18:41] * Wrengl in a hotel that is costing me only 29.00 for the five
nights!
[18:41] <KK> My mom and aunt are definitely cruising up there as
well--in July, cruising from Alaska down to Vancouver, I believe.
[18:41] <Olympia> we don't do cruising, we don't.
[18:42] <Wrengl> cruising is fun nancy
[18:42] <Olympia> I'd be a lovely guest author on a cruise... "oh
excuse me, I'll be right ::urp:: back..."
[18:42] * Wrengl went on a two night cruise in 2002
[18:42] <Olympia> Cruising makes me queasy. A car going backwards makes
me queasy. A waterbed makes me queasy.
[18:42] <Wrengl> ah
[18:42] <KK> I remember about cars, and riding in the back seat--not.
[18:43] <Wrengl> i understand these big ships rarely feel like they are
on the water
[18:43] <Olympia> Being picked up off the ground makes me queasy - good
thing I"m um a little heavier than a feather
[18:43] <Olympia> oh god the back seat! not the back seat!!!!!
[18:43] <Wrengl> lol
[18:43] <KK> The big ships are usually very stable.
[18:43] * Martine is on IRC
[18:43] * Martine has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[18:43] <DeryniBot> Martine enters the chat as RainbowDragon passes
around a plate of cheese.
[18:43] <Mistyck> just like being in an on-the-ground hotel
[18:43] <Martine> hi!
[18:43] <Wrengl> and the dawn princess is not a small ship, i am told

[18:44] <Wrengl> my friend (from elementary school) who is my travel
agent has been on that cruise on the dawn princess
[18:45] <KK> Hello, Martine!
[18:45] * Shiral makes a note to self: Do not go on a cruise with
Nancy...
[18:45] <Martine> What happened?
[18:46] <Wrengl> nancy can't cruise
[18:46] <KK> Nancy is not a good sailor.
[18:46] <the_Bee> Nancy gets seasick easily
[18:46] <Martine> Oh, Nancy! <laugh>
[18:46] <Wrengl> poor deprived nancy
[18:46] <Olympia> The only sailing I do is on Puzzle Pirates

[18:47] <the_Bee> Princess Cruises--is that the Love Boat line
[18:47] <Wrengl> lol
[18:47] <Wrengl> you don't play COH anymore nancy?
[18:47] <ambush> WoW is awesome
[18:47] <ambush> ffxi is better
[18:47] <Olympia> Nope, gave it up when CoV came out. We couldn't get
into ffxi but we love WoW - what server(s) Ambush?
[18:47] <ambush> only played it
[18:47] <Olympia> Martine, you still play CoH/CoV yes?
[18:47] <Martine> Nancy defected!!!
[18:48] <Wrengl> so i see

[18:48] <ambush> my laptop isnt good enough to run it

play in the same world, so to speak.

[18:53] <Shiral> Maybe Dhugal needs to Google
[18:53] <ambush> lol
[18:53] <Olympia> don't go there, Shiral...
[18:53] <Olympia> it won't be pretty
[18:53] <jemler> someone's a poet and don't know it
[18:53] <Olympia> oh yes she does!
[18:53] * Shiral spit shines her halo
[18:53] <Olympia> eeeeuwwww
[18:53] <KK> How would Dhugal's mother know of Camber? Not sure I
understand the question.
[18:54] <Shiral> Don't know what you're talking about
[18:54] * ambush thinks about beating Shiral with her own halo
[18:54] <Martine> Sorry, Shiral, spit shining won't get through all
THAT tarnish... <g>
[18:54] <Olympia> Katherine, John says he's up for us moving to Ireland
and becoming personal chefs 'n laborers for ye!
[18:54] * Bynw must go brave the thuderstorm to get groceries with tika
[18:54] <Olympia> Amen, Sister Martine, amen!
[18:54] <ambush> no,no,no...it's not tarnish
[18:54] <Martine> Good luck, Bynw!
[18:54] <ambush> it's rust
[18:54] <Martine> rotfl!!!
[18:54] <Olympia> LOL, Ambush, you are the best!
[18:54] <jemler> FromQuest for Saint Camber. After meeting the monk who
showed them Cambers tomb.
[18:54] <Shiral> What do you mean "tarnish" Martine? <G>
[18:54] <Dov> BTW, the pronunciation guide still does not say how to
pronounce cruaidh-deuchainn
[18:54] <the_Bee> They're referring to the discovery of shiral beads
near Dhugal's castle at the end of Quest
[18:54] <ambush> which is held up by those shiny red horns!
[18:54] <Shiral> my halo is very shiny
[18:55] <Olympia> My halo broke.
[18:55] <Shiral> Well if you drop them on a hard surface, this can
happen, Olympia
[18:55] <Olympia> ohhhhhhhhhhhh. doh.
[18:55] <Martine> Mine's still intact.... 100% iron, it is! :-D
[18:55] <Olympia> hee hee - like my coronet, damascus steel
[18:55] <Olympia> with little sharp points
[18:56] <Olympia> ::another angelic grin::
[18:56] <slobbit> what? Mine's paper mache! I got ripped!
[18:56] <Martine> Little sharp pointy points?
[18:56] <Olympia> try bread dough - ez to bake and gild
[18:56] <jemler> I don't have a halo, my horns get in the way
[18:56] <Dov> baronial?
[18:56] <KK> Dhugal's mother and Camber are of widely separated
generations. Still don't understand the question. Or do you mean in a
theoretical sense?
[18:56] <Olympia> very sharp points - which Dov? my coronet?
[18:56] * Bynw will return after braving the thunderstorm on the
grocery run
[18:56] <Dov> that's what i'm askinmg about
[18:57] * Bynw is now known as Bynw-groceries
[18:57] * Bynw has left IRC
[18:57] <Shiral> Perhaps, "Was there more to Maryse than met the eye?"
[18:57] <Olympia> ah sorry - it's ducal
[18:57] <Olympia> byeeee Bynw - you'll be fine. It's just water.
[18:57] <Dov> woo
[18:57] <Shiral> Bye Bynw. Keep dry
[18:57] <Olympia> it's not like it's holy water! it won't burn you!
[18:57] <the_Bee> learn to swim, Bynw!
[18:57] * ambush stares at the shiny red horns holding up what's left
of Shiral's once shiny,now rusted halo, and shakes his head
[18:57] <Dov> in our kingdom that would be strawberry leaves
[18:57] <KK> Well, we did establish that borderers commonly have the
second sight, and that this might be Deryni blood.
[18:57] <jemler> Dhugal wonders if his mother knew anything regarding
the poeple at St. Kyriells. She left him a shiral with a cord threaded
through it, like on the tombs.
[18:57] <Mistyck> maybe she knew about the shiral netting..the folklore
[18:58] <Olympia> it's damascus steel - 4 strawberry leaves. with very
sharp points
[18:58] <Shiral> How long have you been having these hallucinations,
Ambush?
[18:58] <Dov> neat
[18:58] <ambush> hallucinations?
[18:58] <ambush> damn
[18:58] <Olympia> It's Bynw's evil influence, Shiral. Thanks, Dov
[18:58] <ambush> knew those drugs would get to me
[18:58] <Shiral> Tika and Bynw OBVIOUSLY need to give you much more
supervision <G>
[18:58] <ambush> lol
[18:58] <Martine> Ambush, we must be taking the same drugs because I'm
seeing that same vision.
[18:58] <ambush> i love this group
[18:58] <Olympia> Tika is doing the best she can, Shiral but I mean
c'mon she's already like THAT most patient woman on the planet!
[18:59] <Shiral> See if I give you anymore Shiralfic, Martine!
[18:59] <jemler> Shiralfic?
[18:59] * ambush will brb
[18:59] * ambush Quit

[18:59] <Shiral> naw
[18:59] <Olympia> ::eyes the golden words floating in the air that
sound eerily like KK's voice... One Hour a Day::
[19:00] <Mistyck> I've been doing that Nancy and it's amazing how well
it works
[19:00] <Martine> No Shiralfic, no sharing of theater knowledge ;-)
[19:00] <Olympia> My other excuse is that my beloved husband is
(temporarily) unemployed so I have to do the contract work first.
