Challenge Happy Wednesday!
Have you all entered the poetry contest that the Post and the Den of Gossip are holding yet??? DO SO TODAY!
Also, be sure to vote in the primaries this weekend! The polls are open and we want to know who YOU want to be your governor!
The Many Faces of Fio was in fine crazy fashion Wednesday night in the Red Dragon Inn… which is to say that she wasn’t Fio at all. We hear that she was chatting away to some big scary looking guy about kittens and bendy straws and the baby in her belly. Ugh. We want this to work out. We want Fio to be a good mother. But how in the world could anybody trust her with a small child??? Having had to raise Intern Pumpkin Head since her parents were unfortunately lost to our cause, we know first hand that taking care of a newborn is seriously hard work! It takes everybody here at the Den of Gossip to work together to take care of her. We’re just not so sure that some of Fio’s personalities are up for the task. Really, Ali, what were you thinking???
Our sources tell us that the Arena was absolutely packed Wednesday night for back-to-back challenges. The first one of the night was Harris pressing challenge against Anubis for the right to the barony of Battlefield Park. We hear that Koy showed up as his lady of honor looking HAWT! It’s good to see that the girl’s back on her game! We have to wonder, however, how the Gov MAN-tastic Matt feels about his wife getting all prettied up for another man. Clearly, he’s not too upset as he served as Harris’ second for the night.
As is typical with Anubis, things couldn’t go off without a hitch. His wife, Dawn, was overheard making some comments to Pslyder that are so wrong that we can’t even post them in this blog! More importantly, Anubis had himself strapped to Harris and the pair had to fight the entire duel with knives while tied together. It definitely made for an interesting evening! Kattria, who we fall deeper and deeper in love with every day, was overheard saying that she didn’t know it was going to be a “hand-fasting”. OMG! We love a witty chick!
Unfortunately for the good of the city, Harris was not able to put Anubis in his place. Anubis won the best of three in two duels and remains the Baron of Battlefield Park. Ugh. Congratulations, Anubis… or whatever.
Wow! Slutty Pirate Girl Teagan was overheard telling Kalamere that she is thinking of asking Joey to head home with her to visit her folks. That sounds like a major step! We had no idea they were like that. We’re a little worried for Teagan’s sake. We kind of feel like Joey’s experimenting and isn’t as serious about this relationship as Teagan is. Teagan definitely has a history for falling deeper for the people that she’s sleeping with than they fall for her.
Ugh. Rekah and Dawn were seen together again! This just keeps getting worse and worse. They were chatting with one another like old friends. We hear that there was even discussion of the pair having tea with Crazy Train Tara. Really??? Really??? These are the people that Rekah is going to be allowed to hang out with. Where is her new boyfriend??? Haven’t we already made fun of Mini-Frank Cor enough for failing to tell his girlfriend to STAY AWAY FROM THE SLAVER! Cassius has been around forever! He has no excuse for not warning his girl about the more unsavory elements of the Arena. We remain seriously unhappy.
Guill seems to be on a mission to be the first duelist in history to give each and every one of the sitting barons a defense. He and Deathlord also chose Wednesday night to meet up. Slightly more than twenty-four hours beforehand, Deathlord had changed his alignment to loyal and Overlord Tical had accepted it! It was definitely a surprising move but everyone could see the writing on the wall after that! Tical did step in to intercede on behalf of his newest loyal baron. He lost by a point but it turned out that Deathlord didn’t need the intercession. He came close to a shutout but couldn’t make it happen. He did, however, take an impressive 5-1 win!
Congratulations, Deathlord! New Haven continues to be represented by one heck of a scary dude. We can’t help but laugh.
We’re a little worried still about Deathlord’s fascination with Taneth. She was present to cheer for him as well as Harris. It’s more than a little creepy, isn’t it??? Thankfully, she was distracted from Deathlord and his minions by the presence of Shy who it seems showed up to cheer on Harris. When did Harris get so many friends??? Don’t people know that he’s a world class jerk! But maybe it’s just that compared to Anubis, he’s a really nice guy.
