Hope Posted November 30, 2023 Author Share Posted November 30, 2023 If Lords Hen and Charles have their way We’ll see duelling words on Saturday Vocab parry and thrust, debaters' minds rushed, will crowds cheer or jeer the fatal parley?

Blackguard Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 There once was a spiritual call Causing five seance masks to fall Two ladies did run Before violence was done Acting as naught happened at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Audley Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 There once was a cyclops from Kent Who thought his verses cause to lament For however he might try His stanzas all went awry And left him obliged to repent. Only occurred to me after replying to the Merriweather thread (and I wouldn't post it IC anyway, because Chatham shouldn't be composing limericks off the top of his head. Even the first one was pushing it.) but I was too pleased with it not to post it somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackguard Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Well done. Whether we care to admit it, or whether our characters should be adept at it, all of us writers find limericks hard to resist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackguard Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 There once was a mod named Hope. Whose absence caused all to mope As her nails grew long She knew something was wrong Without limericks, it was hard to cope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackguard Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 It is time to see what this season has wrought; Of the spirit world we've seen a lot; Chichester is wed, Merriweather is dead; And a duchess is to captain a yacht! we have also seen curios bought; A murderer yet to be caught; One Life Guard fired a shot, Two earls a tiger fought; Sophia could bear a princeling, or not.

Blackguard Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 All of the drama you read here may make you sigh, As most of your PCs confront at least one lie. Distracted you may be by hormones run wild, But be aware that your PCs are likely beguiled. For the season ends when someone important will die.

Blackguard Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 One of the biggest events at court are marriage matches. In particular, we care about our PCs, George and Caroline have checked the box for two. Blount, Sophia, Cadell, Beverley and Louis are already married. So, a poem for the rest while awaiting more posts. We have already had a poll about Langdon. Dorothea, this season, is the marquee catch; But Kingston's bloodline must be disclosed before there's a match. Chatham buttered Ormonde to marry one of his girls; He's had his way with Sophia, now seems to be chasing Sarah's curls. Davina could marry cousin Henry, or maybe go wild; Possibly a PC, Fiona should marry the father of her child; Eleanor could be a catch, but none has caught her eye; Sabotaging Langdon with Maria so her uncle Henry could try? Duncan had a book mouse but now aims high; If he plays it right, there could be a knot to tie. Anne E wants Dorset, but claims she needs no man. Darlene is the reverse, but has no plan. Douglas was born on the wrong side of the bed; He could have Ellen, but prefers a monster's niece instead. John has eyes for Anne, but she's not the marrying type; A match with a rich colonial may be a fruit more ripe. Cordelia matches others, but her own would be hard; But imagine finding one for James, an aspiring Irish bard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackguard Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 A Scottish duke was so hated, His death was often slated. A Cat would have tried for sure, But the laugh may instead be on her, For with her sister, he's already mated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
