Alpha, Day 6

[keilexandra]

Listening to Tammy's lecture right now. She's talking about how she thinks of characters, by remaking all the people and pets around her. Apparently Kyprioth in the Trickster's series was based off Bruce Coville. But Kyprioth does something in Trickster's Queen that made his human incarnation rather angry, and I can't remember what the something was!

Other interesting ones are her first boyfriend as Lord Roger (Song of the Lioness) and her friend's pet dove as the griffin in Protector of the Small.

And the discussion is bringing back good memories about various of Tammy's books. Now I want to reread The Will of the Empress, which I just bought and got signed yesterday. But I have Tigana and The Quantum Rose to savor, and I need to finish Maledicte before the end of Alpha. I'm only a few pages in. Looked through Interfictions and it looks interesting, but not fascinating. That's iffy.

I think Kyprioth killed a little boy in Trickster's Queen, but I can't remember the context. Haven't read it in ages. :)

Hmm. Don't remember that at all, but it's been ages since I read that. (Guess I'm not the only one reading LJ during lecture, either. :D)

He sets in motion the events that lead to the drowning of the child king and Dove's and Sarai's half-brother, the king's only heir--2 four-year-olds.

Gee, am I that boring?!!!!

[keilexandra]

Oh, thank you!

You're not boring at all. I am listening to you talk about decadent banquets right now. I'm just bad at sitting still and listening.

Hallo, you! :3 Tammy *was* great, wasn't she? (It was when Kyprioth put it into the regents' minds to kill off all of those little boys with a storm, so they alone could rule. Bitches. X3)

Gasp!! Coyote Road's out by now, isn't it??? We must assault the bookstore tonight. We shall barge through its glass-windowed doors, lay waste to the front counter and pillage the coffee shop! >D

Unless the come quietly. >3

Oh, waaaait, Tammy already told you. *headdesk* Nevahmind! X3!!!

[keilexandra]

Eeeee, Coyote Road! I totally forgot about that. At this rate, I'm not going to have any money for books at Confluence. XD
