Connie, is Isabetta Buffy or Darla? Or kind of both?
And the thing is, I like my evil like I like my men: evil. You know, straight up, black hat, tied to the train tracks, soon my electro-ray will destroy metropolis BAD.

t innocent blink. Isabetta is a peasant girl who thinks Angelo's danged cute. Whyever would you think she's someone else?
OK, no, I can't pull it off. She's Buffy.

There's a neat thing where, in some cultures, most curses/the worst curses are about religion; in others, they're about sex; and in others, they're about filth/bodily functions. I have no idea which medieval Ireland was, but that might be worth researching.
OK, no, I can't pull it off. She's Buffy.
Thanks. I was 90% sure because of the name, but that 10% was nagging at me.

Lyra, I have been very carefully trying to stay away from the "You know, I bet Italian/whatever was different in 1498" thought. I'm getting obsessive enough about the languages.
It was just supposed to be a simple little "let's dress up the cute guys in nifty clothes and see what happens" fic.
