Le Salon! (Formerly the Court Threade!)

[Deloria]

* Deloria uses her epic mod powers to change the name of her threade to reflect her current ideals.

I officially welcome you to my salon! Royal patronage has become intellectual and I have become a précieuse!

There will be cake


in a fitting room


as we discuss and debate the merits of both cake and rooms.

However, in the event that a war need be started, a rebellion squashed or a tourney held, I will resume my other duties.

Oh, and the head of my super secret spy and assassin ring will be replaced with Queenie, my adorable pet octopus.

[Say]

Haha I'm glad you like

[darthkiwi]

Your Grace, your radiance and charm grows daily. I am entirely bedazzled. Please accept this humble offering of cathedralcake; I hope it will sit proudly beside the other magnificent cakes with which you have so wondrously bedecked your salon.



Though it seems strange I am assured that that is, indeed, a cake.

*kneels and offers cake*

[Jafar]

So Queenie's your top assassin, huh? Could she drop a cartoonish 4-ton weight onto someone's head from the rafters in at least 5 minutes?

[Deloria]

"This is a very nice cathedralcake. I should very much like to have it. I do hope it's not a Hampton Court sort of thing where you've put all your money and effort over a decade into building it. "

"..."

"I said, I do hope you shouldn't mind losing it. It's hardly as though you need it; it's not, after all, your head. What a silly thing of me to say, I have no idea why my mind might have wandered there."

"I hope this offer will please you..."

It is magnificent! I do believe I have been very sneaky in acquiring it.

All my courtiers and friends and liveried servants shall be relocated into the cathedralcake!

[Deloria]

So Queenie's your top assassin, huh? Could she drop a cartoonish 4-ton weight onto someone's head from the rafters in at least 5 minutes?

Don't call her that! It confuses her! If you must, you can have a look at her file if you think yourself in need of her services.

Name: Queenie
Random stuff: A royal blue octopus with gigantic eyes. She also has a tiny crown atop her bulbous head and is also a secret assassin (she hugs people too hard by accident, you see; she really has no idea what she's doing and thinks people are hiring her to hug people)! Her favourite things to do include bouncing and hugging people, nice-looking objects and plants. She can usually be found bouncing on top of buildings and she has a crush on the Superduperamazingcookie. She is a happeh octopus!   

[Jafar]

Alrighty, I understand. I think death via octopus-glomp is too good for the targets I had in mind, though...

That is, if I had any targets. Which I don't.

[Deloria]

Oh, it's excruciating, believe me. It's like being killed by a boa constrictor except she leaves these weird suction marks that look exactly like hickies; it throws the authorities off completely.

[Jafar]

Yeah, but...being killed by something so huggable should be reserved for people who're lower on my hit list.


My hypothetical hit list, that is.

[Deloria]

But hitting them with 4 tonne weights would make it end too quickly.

[Jafar]

It makes such a delightful *CLANG* sound, though!

[Delling]

That Cathedral cake... waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaant... but once I had it... I might never want to eat it... WHY DO THEY BAKE THINGS LIKE!? It's so fancy and awesome that you don't want to eat it but so tasty that you do! <~ 'tis a happy-dilemma tear

[darthkiwi]

My lady, those accusations levelled against me by malicious rivals are COMPLETELY UNTRUE! I am the innocent victim of slander, a tragic scapegoat on the altar of over-enthusiasm and common GOSSIPERS! :O

To that end, I humbly present myself at your court offering gifts hoping that your fair radiance will shine upon me once more. I present a rose:



And a rose in cake form:



And beg humbly that you will cast these slanders from your most gracious mind.

EDIT: I return bearing more gifts! A pair of tiaras.

[GrahamRocks!]

Awww!

[Deloria]

Oh darling, of course I forgive you! You've fought for me and won and it was glorious! And to think that I was going to exile you! Now go and find me a place in the sun.

[Deloria]

* Deloria, Empress of the Britons  happily wears the Mellerio floral tiara and serves the post-duel rose cake to the salon.

[Deloria]

And of course, cameo cupcakes! Because cameos! And cupcakes! And wedgwood colours!



Now, let's talk about space.

[darthkiwi]

Yay! Forgiveness is sweet!

Like cake. And cake should be served with tea.



As for a place in the sun:



Maybe German East Africa?

[Deloria]

The Congo, I should think.

[Deloria]

I am now hearing and trying the case of Darthkiwi, the heinous ripper of the asylum. Have you anything to say for yourself before we begin?
