Not all of the leads were Irish, but the main character of The Crying Game was. And I could understand everyone in that movie.
Where's the praising and extolling of my virtues? Where's the love?

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If that sentence makes no sense to you, the contents may be a spoiler, or I may be generating gibberish. Either way.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I haven't read the books so I assume the thing that happens is that she and the dress go to a nice tea party where nobody dies horribly at all.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Huh. That is not what I imagined. But I don't know how the book specifically described it.

Because books.
I actually knew exactly what ita meant. Yay?

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Heh, me too. I'm excited to see what it looks like after the thing happens.

But they have to wait a bit for scones. Hence the hunger.

I just listened to the first book again and my main reaction to the dresses this time around was how it would be impossible to actually do them (especially the second one) as described and have them work, so I'm sort of happy with anything they come up with that makes an impact.

Scones. Scones and euchre. That's the focus of the plotline.
I hadn't thought about the concept of the before of the dress, but I like the approach they're taking. It all depends on the during and the after, though. But I think the before is solid so far.
