Accomplished ladyhood has its perks after all

So I went to the autumnal hunting LARP in Balduinstein.

I turned out to be the second-best archer (and best archeress, if that word exists) of the hunt (which, to be honest, speaks less for me than against the others); I have danced with half the nobles (and some not-so-nobles) of Elves and Men, including two sons of Fëanor*; I have managed not to get myself killed for my quick tongue, and I received praise for my drawing and my home-made ball gown.
Also, Maedhros owes me a favour. :D

Oh, and back at home I helped to clear away a bit of earth and rubble, and cut back about 2,5 meters worth of brambles.

*rubs hands* It's been a most productive weekend.

More (possibly) tomorrow.

*And this, me hearties, is why you should all learn to do historical dances, and do them well; because you never know when there's a Finwëan desperately looking for a dancing partner.**

**In fact, there were so few capable women at that point in time that in the end Fingon and Maedhros had to either dance together or not dance at all. They decided for the former option.***

***Fingon danced the lady's part, in case any of you were curious. >:D

meeting people, larp, fandom, ftw, *flail*
