I'm so getting some BBQ and sweet tea tomorrow...

but what KIND of BBQ?

I'm fond of eastern NC style meself, smoked pig with red pepper and vinegar and that's it...

Western NC?  with a tomato-based sauce?  OR SC, with more mustard? 

Or Texas style?

you must specify! 

Memphis style BBQ is good too. 

Funny where this thread has gone.  Let's get back on track now, shall we?  How about Ali, Zev, and Cullen naked and covered in BBQ sauce.  Yummy!

Now, you'ins get back on the topic... And yes, you'ins is a word like ah-ight... Ahh, the first time I went "Down Home" with my darling hubby to his grandparents' holler in Eastern KY, he had to be my translator. LOL I am so glad to have met y'all!

[tevikolady]

I say we beg Reuben.  When I saw his Alistair drawing my eyes were glued to the monitor and I couldn't look away. 
 
Maybe if we give him lots and lots of smoochies, and maybe some sweet tea, he will do it.  Maybe.

[tallon1982]

How about we give him big puppy dog eyes? hehe

[ReubenLiew]

You'll rip out the eyes of big puppies?

I dunno...Cullen's sweetness factor dropped dramatically when he confessed to my mage that he was the one that would have killed her at her Harrowing...and he wasn't like "I don't know what I would've done!" he was like "I totally would have done it, too." But then, I always imagined my mage PC (who is my canon pc) would have a deep abiding hatred of the Templars. I was seriously disappointed that, upon returning for the Circle of Magi quest, one of my options wasn't to go ballistic and roast anything and everything in a tin suit for even considering that whole Rite of Annulment thing.

See, I thought that made him even *better.* Only someone weak and selfish would allow my mage to live were she to become an abomination. My mage wouldn't want to live that way, knows she'd be a threat to everyone, and its the Templar's duty to kill the possessed mage. My mage would never forgive him for letting her live such a cursed existence. The fact that Cullen, in spite of or because of his feelings, would do this shows he has great strength of conviction. Besides, if Cullen didn't do it someone else would...why hesitate and potentially risk innocent lives in the process?

Its so neat how everyone can fill in the blanks for their characters. In contrast to yours, my mage liked the Templars. The only life she rememebered was of the Tower and the Templars were always there. She didn't misbehave so for her the Templars stood as silent guardian statues, becoming part of the masonry and moving far out of her mind for the most part. As she moved through Tower those Templars she did speak with were generally kind and tolerant. I suppose it is mutually beneficial for the mages and Templars to have a cordial/borderline friendly relationship as mistrust brought on by abuse would only cause extreme problems (more Uldreds, for example, and much more frequently). And of course Cullen was especially nice to her, which reinforced her beliefs that the Templars were "good people" for the most part.

One last thing is that in the beginning I don't think Cullen was fighting against any personal belief that mages are dirty or evil as he makes it clear he doesn't think that they are even though he has (I assume) been taught that he *should* think that way. He's seen with his own eyes and who is he gonna believe, the young sweet thing he is: the Chantry or his lyin' eyes? Rather, he's fighting against the vows of celibacy he surely must've taken as well as the line of professional distance (for lack of a better term) he must keep in order to be able to do his job. Its simply not appropriate for Templars to fraternize with mages and for obvious reasons. Though I simply can't believe that the Templars and mages *never* "canoodle" with each other. Simply impossible. I'm sure if Cullen listened around he'd find more of his brothers than he'd care to admit have...indulged. Plus, the poor fem!mages! I mean compare dingy male!mage robes to the awesomely masculine Templar armor -- mage robes lose every time. Plus there is the whole forbidden fruit tastes sweeter thing...and discovering what the Templars wear (or not) under their skirts....

Well there is something that to that.  I have to admit that my mage PC had a thing for that forbidden fruit and the whole 'omg, they are so manly' thing.  SO yes, templars could definitely bust out with the hot.

I um....I cna sort of draw...maybe if we ask real nicely we can have a different artist od a different character?....Or maybe, if our lovely writers want to sweeten the pot, various artists can submit sketches for the calendar, and maybe have a little bit of a prize fos ome sort? Maybe? Just a little something?

And Reuben, you should watch carefully, us Southern Belles are dangerous when we put our minds to something.

I will save my other stories for another time. LOL Suffice to say, I regard Disney in a very jaded fashion.

Hey Reuben, if you're stalking in the bushes, would you be a dear and trim back the holly a bit and then rake out the beds?

[ReubenLiew]

Is not me, is the rats out there with herr Uhl, senorita.
