Another hour has passed and for some reason I'm feeling a little tired of gifs. So why not mix things up with.... a gifless post! Hold in your gasps. Somehow we (and by we I really mean I) will survive but just this once :D Drop me a comment and let me know how your hour went :D

524 words into my Unconventional Courtship fic and I've just prematurely introduced gay marriage into 7th century Britain! Wooo!

It's reasons like this why I should rule an empire. True story.

I'm back from my daring trip to the outside world! I got myself candy, and a book about corporate finance. Thrilling stuff.

I'll aim to write yet another 100 words. Reality of Math tells me that if I manage to do that ten times, I will end up with achievement of 1K! I have to try it, to see if its true.

These are... Some fruit like substance, maybe marmalade, covered in chocolate. It's kind of disgustingly good actually. It's a new thing, I was curious :)

I don't think I've ever seen a A/B/O fic that induces giggle fits and I work at the SPN Kink Meme so that's actually a massive achievement! Kudos xD

I think I just heard a goose outside my window...I just thought I'd let you all know in case it's a ninja goose come to attack me for my stance on historical gay marriage.

Right back on topic, in my attempt to marry two men, I've stumbled upon a titling issue. One of them is crowned prince (I'm not fooling anyone, it's Merlin/Arthur) and once they get married...so will the other one be...except that doesn't seem right. I mean Kate Middleton hasn't become a princess just through marrying a price. But then Prince Philip is a prince being married to the Queen.

So, just so I don't have to call my royalist mother, can anyone help? What would the husband of a prince be called? And what would they be called if the prince became a King?

(bear with the British royal family, I'm English)

Would (prince) consort do?
It was popular choice in royalty AU's in my fandom back in the day, but granted, I don't have a good grasp on royal titles. :)

I don't think I've ever read a royalty AU. I mean in my current fandom it's canon so I guess I have...I don't know. But consort wins by three votes and a few IRL Prince Consorts.

Consort it is!

Obviously, since we don't have a historical precedent (sadly), to go by, I'd say Consort - Prince Albert's title was Prince Consort. And "consort" is the general term for spouse of a king or queen, really. So it'd be the natural way to refer to them, even if you don't use it as a specific title.

As specific titles go, they could be made a Duke of somewhere; that would seem quite likely.

I mean, if you're writing Merlin and any kind of King Arthur (Barring the magic stripped away 6th C chieftain type) historical accuracy is a bit of a contradiction in terms anyway...

From: [identity profile] agirlnamedtruth.livejournal.com
Yeah, I'm writing the BBC version so I have no idea why I'm even worried about accuracy at all.

Consort wins the race, with three votes. And I like it, it sounds kind of sexy.

Yes, it would be Prince Consort.

And if that was a homophobic ninja goose, let me know and I'll send a swarm of pro-marriage-equality mockingbirds to drown it out!

If, on the other hand, it was a Historic Purity Detail Maven goose, there's not much to be done except remind it that the source material isn't a primary source anyway. This will send it scurrying back into the library to find primary sources, and you can escape while it's distracted.

It's ok, I think I managed to scare it off with the power of all my slash fic. Or if it was a Historic Purity Detail Maven goose then I scared it off using all my historically inaccurate slash fic. Either way worked ;)

I spent the last hours writing an overlong blog post, then splitting it into two because I had started with one topic and finished with another, then editing the relevant half into a twice as long stand-along post, and I believe it all took me three hours? *eye roll*
I still have to edit the other half of the original blog post into something coherent, but not now.

Instead I shall continue the story from this morning about the fairy tale princess that teleports through the world out of boredom. That was a fun idea.

Now that you say it I totally agree. Who cares about blogging when there are proper stories to be told?
(Definition of 'proper story' always includes princesses and science-fiction-y hightech, of course. Just look at StarWars. - Though they couldn't beam, the poor suckers.)

I usually do something like that and then realise afterwards that nobody would be interested in it anyway.

I mean my posting is random enough and too frequent as it is, imagine what it would be like without a cooling off period o.0

I don't know. Try it? I always prefer long, thinky posts over short ones.

What's one more post when you're already posting so much?
(I simply expect everybody wanting to enthusiastically read whatever I post, so I wouldn't be worried by that at all. Then again, right now I'm not posting anything on my taleanea-LJ. I'll pick up posting there soon enough, though.)

Ahaha, I love you presume that they're thinky just because they're long. A few days ago I compiled like 40 different texts from last night graphics from various fandoms and then realised that I'd probably be the only one to get them. My thinky posts are few and far between, trust me ;)

Pretend-thinky, then? That's just as good. Long matters. And long looks like thinky, so all is good.
