Favors

[RenaissanceBarbie]

Does this mean Jack... I mean Capt Coolio is a free man? OH I know many noble ladies who will be swooning now

No, I was simply referring to the Capn's and my status as the current reigning tookus King and Queen.  Our bond runs deep you see, as we rule over the land.  It is a good land and we shall call it "This Land".  Or "Tookusdom".  We should vote.

[CapnJack]

No!  No vote!  As reigning King of Tookus, I declare it "Tookusdom."  So let it be written, so let it be done!

Hey, I don't have much power in this world, so I'll take what I can get...

Wasn't this thread about favours?  Heh... woops...

[Princess Alice]

If you need me to bring a favor to you (can't make it down to my shop?), let me know.

[Hey- Arent You?]

I was witness to tookus fest 1, at Chilis, where no hamsters were harmed.

Well, thankfully my new doublet has red slashes, it'll hide the blood stains very well.

[Platt]

Heh, no I'm afraid Jack is very much obsessed attached 

And it's still Jack.  I figured I'd keep Jack since people know me by it.  It's just Jack McCool instead of Jack Sparrow.

And by the way, McCool is NOT supposed to be a pun!  I only picked it because of Finn McCool from Irish legend.  But to modern ears... well... apparently I'm "Captain Coolio" now   

Oooooo...  So Cappy Jack is great-great-great-grandson of Fionn mac Cumhaill?


Errr... ummmm...

Platt is working on clay and wood duckies, cuz the PTB don't like Platt's little duckies and won't let cast wear them  *cries*  (Stupid not-invented-yet-plastic)

[Avan]

Fionn mac Cumhaill

Errr... ummmm...

UMMMMM   Do I really have to say something.      Wow it hurts not saying.   K I'm going to go to another and have a breakdown now. 

[Princess Alice]

...does anyone even want one?

[Platt]

me me me me me me me me!



Oh look... Platt is warming up for songs!   

[Francisco Paula]

If you can fund me on sunday sure i would love one..............

[Hey- Arent You?]

...does anyone even want one?

silly.  
it does not matter who wants one..... it only matters who you want to have one.

favors are given (or should be, imho) as a sign friendship and affection. and so that when the person who wears your favor meets common friends, they will know that there are friends in common.  in past times, favors were given as a sign of romantic interest.
Saying "will you wear my favor" now-a-days mostly means 'I enjoy being around you' and/or 'I've got your back/thanks for having mine'  and /or 'you make this place bearable' and/or 'please remember me'.


so, if you said to me "will you wear my favor" I would be humble & flattered and say "thank you, of course I will", but I would never presume to ask anyone if they had a favor for me.

not all favors are pinned on or worn.  some of the favorites that I have received have been pocket carried like handkerchiefs or special coins, and some have been hung on a wall.  Robin once gave me a favor that was a whole and complete actual arrow, that was all ribboned and beaded up.  it has a very special spot on my wall.

and.... if it is a pin on favor, to do it right it should be pinned on to the other person by you, not just handed over.

there again, is my 2 shillings.
