Jesse, I can see a nice slate blue like this [link] going well with white and dark gray.
I have finesse! I have finesse coming out of my bottom!

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

Jilli, I seem to remember combat grade umbrellas or parasols coming up a few months ago--can you re-orient me?
I've seen stuff about self-defense with parasols, but I don't think I've seen any combat grade umbrellas or parasols. Hmmm, time to go searching.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't think I've seen any combat grade umbrellas or parasols
Thinking harder, I remember a link from LeN about umbrellasols that you can stand on without breaking, etc, and you said you had one. But that's all my memory contains.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Combat grade umbrellas/parasols make me think of Amelia Peabody Emerson, from the mysteries by Elizabeth Peters. (I know, not helpful)

And the Parasol Protectorate, of course.

Combat grade umbrellas make me think of John Steed.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Curiosity made me google. [link] They're pricy.

Wandering through our local Savers thrift store and spotted not one, but two tan trench coats with heavy fuzzy liners that fit! One was a London Fog and the other was a Stafford (Stanford?) For under $20! I got the Stafford because it was a skosh roomier. Yay, men's clothes! Yay, winter coat!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
That reminds me, I meant to post [link]
My ex boyfriend just bought Kaylee's parasol for me. I will probably never use it. And now I must keep it forever.
