Fans of Swordplay
Entry in the rough draft for So, You Want to Be an Anthropologist? :
When attending a social gala, an anthropologist should always be armed, but subtly so. One does not wish to insult the hosts, or even call undue attention to one's self if merely observing.
However, when all the guests are armed to the teeth, perhaps one should blend in instead of trying to use folding fans against a hoard of blackguards.
Also, one should always have a notebook on them, no matter the occasion. ALWAYS.
