TopHatTurtle In reply to RomanceFreak [2014-01-14 11:19:17 +0000 UTC]

Well, she didn't fight, she functioned as a diplomat and also attended to the wounded. She's fluent in Arabic and knows the bigger tribes there, so she's trying to shorten the war as much as possible.

Desert-Lilly [2013-05-06 16:41:18 +0000 UTC]

I love those two so, so much. Maybe it's just Dawson's generally awesome character that ends up making great buddy-vibes with so many people, I don't know, and I don't care. It's just WONDERFUL.

That and Captain Wellington just looks fantastic, and that's not just because I have a weakness for old-fashioned mustaches and military bearing.

TopHatTurtle In reply to Desert-Lilly [2013-05-06 22:26:39 +0000 UTC]

Thank you sooo much! And yeah, how could you NOT adore Dawson? He's such a clever, bumbling lovable sucker, so I'm just happy to get to draw him more.

And you are MORE than welcome to gush over Wellington Something tells me he'd be right up your ally.

The 'Millie-Method' of pain management seems to be working.
I gather that this is inspired by your incident. I hope that that's healing well.

I've never been in a situation where I'd have to drink the physical pains away... Normally they drug me up
But you never know... not many drugs in the desert - I might have to endure whisky and stitches some day

But first when I return from Jordan, because I'm leaving in a few days, and I don't want my roomies getting their hands on my Fruit loops!
And I swear to God, you do that... And I'll take of photo of me wearing the T-shirtt I bought from 's drawing and send them to you two!

Drunk Eddie might be my favorite Eddie. XD I love that captain too! So handsome! ^^

TopHatTurtle In reply to WingsOfASong [2013-04-28 21:40:46 +0000 UTC]

Drunk Eddie isn't a rare sight, to say the least. But to be fair, most of the time in the desert is spent that way. At least it keeps the pain of being stitched up together abay, which is all good for Dawson. Better a drunk and happy Eddie, than a sober cranky one.
And thanks - my goal with Wellington is to make him into one of the super-posh, upper-class aristocratic bachelors, who never looses his cool. I have to admit, he reminds me of someone, and I can not for the love of Gods remember who.

He looks pretty suave and epic. His mustache makes me smile. ^^

TopHatTurtle In reply to WingsOfASong [2013-04-28 21:51:56 +0000 UTC]

And that moustache is as neatly kept and combed as Hercule Poirot's. Of course it helps keeping your beard in place, when you never change not one single facial movement... And Wellington does not do such things.

xD Wellington and my chief Inspector would be great chums. Both have mustaches of epicness.

Chief Inspector? What do you do, if you don't mind me asking?

WingsOfASong In reply to TopHatTurtle [2013-04-28 22:02:58 +0000 UTC]

He's the Chief Inspector of Mouseland Yard (and my Lestrade stand in for Basil). He's a no nonsense type of mouse and is often at odds with Basil. ^^ His names Octavius.

He's still in the process of being developed (he actually appears in my GMD Scandal in Bohemia story near the end), but I hope to have myself a gentlemanly snarker.

It's her way to cope up being stitched together Besides, it's not like there's much else to do in the middle of a desert than to drink.
