I'm on the train to Baltimore, where Delia is already attending FaerieCon:*

D: I just want you to know: there are wings in my future.
E: What? Rings? ( thinks: um, surely you have enough rings for one person already)
D: Wings!
E: oh. No. No, I beg you. Do not buy fairy wings. Please.
D: I want some.
E: We have no place to put them! You will never use them--
D: I will hide them in my closet.
E: Tell me, tell me when you will ever, ever wear them again after this weekend. When???
D: (amused, intransigent silence)
E: Clearly, my feelings mean nothing to you.
D: There are some things a girl just has to have.

*mediocre typing brought to you by my new iPad learning curve! Internet, by: Amtrak really did install even on the cheapie local trains, now. It's the end of an era. toujours connected, archie. Bad phone connection by: I'm in the Quiet Car, had to call from platform between cars.

It's a beautiful, sunny day, and I have s sandwich.

Hehe, I thought the same thing when my friend Marion bought herself fairy wings. But, what do you know, she just needed them last weekend.

You never know when you are being cast as a bearded morris dancer, dressed up as a fairy queen in a stage reading of Terry Pratchett's Lords & Ladies.

When??? Why at NEXT year's FaerieCon!
(Truth be told, that company throws some sort of Fae-flavoured to-do every three months or so. The occasions for wearing faery wings are more plentiful than one would think.)
:D

Any bright day is a day to wear fairy wings.

Such wings would not be out of place at WisCon. ;)

I think you would look charming in wings. And, once you have them, further opportunities to wear them are sure to emerge.

Of course she needed them. I should have thought that was obvious.

Bet you any amount of monopoly money that you'll be borrowing Delia's wings one of these days.

You may as well give this one up -- she told Tiff and I she was buying the wings last weekend. They will be *lovely*. :)

Co-incidentally, I am reluctantly throwing out my two metre tall, handmade costume wings this weekend on the grounds of insufficient storage space.

(they were made by a colleague of mine who takes Kris Kringle rather seriously)

Should I be shipping them to New York instead?

love

Catherine

Fey women should have wings, yes, yes!

Delia can wear them to Sirens! I am sure she will look lovely in them.

I want a picture of Delia in wings.

It's only a matter of time before I acquire a pair of wings myself. (It might well have happened at FaerieCon, had I been there.) Some things really can't be fought.

I'm sure Delia has most excellent taste in wings.
