Pride summary

Awesome!

You are totally a one-man pride parade. And like a fairy godfather, sharing the joy of glitter with little boys.

I was briefly confused on the "bitten by bears" thing, then I remembered the multiple senses of the word.

Protein water?

[apiphile]

That explains the "Padre" nickname, eh? :D

Oh yeah. I mean technically I think he was what the gays call a Daddy rather than a Bear but I liked the alliteration.

this stuff. It tastes like somewhere between medicine and the thing that you taste in your mouth after medicated half-puke. But it is water, technically, and it contains a lot of protein with nothing else, so I can rehydrate and sort of any protein deficit in one go.

You need like a nice suit, a cat you can stroke dramatically, and wings, so you can be all "I'm the Fairy Godfather!" (And yes, I'm sure other people have made that joke.)

Yeah, "Bit by a Bear" sounds cool, like if Chuck Tingle decided to write something mainstream.

...that may be the only blackcurrant-flavored thing I have zero desire to drink.

Actually I think one of my friends wrote an entire novel about what was effectively the Fae mafia so yes. ;)

I was borderline in with the opportunity for POUNDED IN THE ASS BY but frankly it seemed rude to abandon Fiona and I'm scared of a) all men ever and b) my girlfriend doing a murder on me.

I am sorry to have introduced you to its existence.

that sounds like a pretty excellent pride, all told. bonus points for showering people with glitter.

why did the bear bite you? did you ask? did he? (and how would someone ask that? just "excuse me, sir, may i bite you?")

[apiphile]

He didn't ask and I didn't ask but it seemed a fairly natural progression of him rubbing his beard all over my face and neck in an attempt "to get glitter in it". Which is wonderfully bullshitty but he was a pleasant-looking bear human so I have no regrets.

Photographer coming up to you to get close-ups of your tattoos and shorts and also to photograph your FACE: 1.

[apiphile]

So much happened that I'd totally forgotten about that! How are you feeling?

[ruthi]

I am okay!
Today my calves kind of went oh hey you walked a bit the other day.

Ccooke and I are transfering glitter to each other and we will always have glitter on us.

[apiphile]

I have been Shedding glitter absolutely everywhere. EVERYWHERE. Two vigorous showers: still the glitter godfather.

This all sounds excellent and way more active than my Pride (which was basically lots of chat with people I was marching with, marching, flag-waving, sadly missing spotting you, food, home, more food, crash) - way to go!

[apiphile]

I was elsewhere in the Parade - was Kent Canterbury etc before or after the Unions?

[kat_lair]

Ahhhh didn't realise you were marching. Amusingly enough because there are the words 'Christ church' in my unit name they'd put us with the religious groups rather than education ones...

[apiphile]

I've marched the last couple of years in part because it's less cramped and pickpockety than the crowds and in part because I like being cheered at. If you're around for next year's shall I try to find you? I can give you my number.
