pics!

[rm]

marchek posted pictures. I feel like I need a drink just looking at them. So cracktastic! If nothing else, they certainly capture why none of us could stop laughing for more than a minute all night.

(I will be playing with photoshop on these later, both to fix flash-related abominations and because they might be funny in black and white or sepia).

I can send you the original image files. The ones of you are reeally dark and my photoshop skills are so mediocre so I was only able to lighten them up a little that's why they are so grainy.

[rm.livejournal.com]

The grainy sort of has its charms, but yeah, do I can probably do cool stuff.

Those rock!

[rm.livejournal.com]

Thank you. It was a very funny night.

[schpahky.livejournal.com]

Nice work on the hair.

[rm.livejournal.com]

That was all marchek and I was v. v. grateful.

[electricalgwen.livejournal.com]

You look AWESOME. The suspenders are fabulous. :D

[rm.livejournal.com]

Braces! Argh! (this is one of my crazy peeves).

Thank you. I love them so much, and it was such a stupid amount of fun, and still images really don't capture the sheer outrageousness of the whole thing (in part because when I dropped redstapler, marchek was messing with the settings on her camera -- good for me, bad for you.

[electricalgwen.livejournal.com]

Ack! I knew that! Sorry, I'm making dinner and playing swingball in between trying to catch up on LJ!

Also, it sounds like the hair turned out well? Not that I know what it looks like, but I read with interest your trick of pinning it under.

[rm.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it was awesome, although I never could have done it myself I'm actually going to have her do the same for the Regency thing tonight, as it's too short to reliably tie back right now.

[nobodyreally.livejournal.com]

You look utterly fabulous! I am an idiot so enlighten me - the difference between suspenders and braces is...?

[rm.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

That depends.

American English distinction is that suspenders clip on and braces button on.

British English distinction is that suspenders are what hold up your socks, braces button on (as seen in photo) and those clip on things are an abomination that don't exist.

[nobodyreally.livejournal.com]

Ah, got it. Thanks!

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

Entirely correct. Twice. Quite.

[nobodyreally.livejournal.com]

One of the things I love about rm is that I can get little details like this clarified. Although I like that the clippy things just. don't. exist. for the British. That's so British.

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

In so far as it was practical, the British ignored the Blitz. Because really.

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

The braces are just buster! 8D

[pennswoods.livejournal.com]

OMG! You're a dead ringer for Oscar Wilde!!!!!!!!!!1111111

[rm.livejournal.com]

At first I was like "buh?" eventhough I actually hear that a lot, and then I was like "OMG the slouch!" Ha! Yes, you're quite right.

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

Un-huh!

[tsarina.livejournal.com]

See, you are totally outgrowing teenage boy phase now! Apparently into dancing, insouciant young man phase involving many ladies.

David Bowie + Severus + Jack = you

[rm.livejournal.com]

OH god. I think I just won at life.

*stretches*

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

If it doesn't fit, it's exchangeable. :)

[elionwyr.livejournal.com]

Oh my. That summarizes it brilliantly.

[miep.livejournal.com]

h. o. t. t.

[rm.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Are you spelling very slowly or does each letter stand for something too?

[miep.livejournal.com]

spelling slowly. with an extra t for added emphasis. :)

[heron61.livejournal.com]

Wow. I had no idea that you could do Jack quite that well - consider me very impressed.

[rm.livejournal.com]

Neither did I. I've been sort of working up to it after swearing I wasn't going to try and a bunch of people convincing me that of course I could pull it off.

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

That bunch are smart!

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

Is smart? Debatable. That lot definitely would be smart, but bunch seems uncertain.

[anayajay.livejournal.com]

OMG. You look amazing.

[rm.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[torenheksje.livejournal.com]

I can honestly say that if I didn't know, I wouldn't have been able to tell. That's just amazing - the body language where you're sort of draped in the chair just screams "louche" and/or "cad."

Well done!

[rm.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I can't describe how much fun it was, mainly because I knew it was -right-. I'm hoping I can find the same level of amusement in tonight's adventures, but it's a lot of layers and propriety to be stuck under.

[mme-furiosa.livejournal.com]

You DO look marvelous. And I second the Oscar Wilde comment. It's actually uncanny. And no, it is not just the slouch.

[rm.livejournal.com]

Thank you. As I've said, I've heard it before. It's something I've always wanted to play with theatrically, although it was far far from my mind last night.

That first one made me think of Dorothy Parker waiting for her next drink at the Algonquin.
