Round 39, Hour 10
Mar. 23rd, 2013 08:03 pmAnother 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

Date: 2013-03-23 09:14 am (UTC)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.

Date: 2013-03-23 09:34 am (UTC)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)

Date: 2013-03-23 09:41 am (UTC)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...

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.

Date: 2013-03-23 09:44 am (UTC)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.

Date: 2013-03-23 09:51 am (UTC)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

Date: 2013-03-23 10:45 am (UTC)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.)
