Sam did her best to hide her shock at Martyn's appearance and focus on the task at hand instead.

I went to a sort of Celtic Festival yesterday! I had to go alone because my buddy ditched at the last minute due to a family emergency, but I got to see lots of period costumes, listen to some good live music (much of it consisting of bagpipes, naturally), and watch some dudes in full armor beat the crap out of each other. There was even live jousting! At the various exhibits I got to try on and touch various pieces of armor, such as a plate gauntlet and the 80-pound chainmail shirt. Wore a pot helm for a picture. The weather was amazing and everyone was in a good mood.

While I didn't get to partake in the whiskey tasting - there wasn't anyone else to drive home - I did get to buy a sword and some souvenirs for the family.
80 pounds? that's excessively heavy for a chainmail shirt. was it a full body thing?
It was pretty long when laid out on a table. Might have been meant to protect more of the body than just a shirt. I didn't catch the proper name for it and "shirt" was the best descriptor I could think of when writing the original post :/

It was the guy running the table that claimed the chainmail weighed 80 pounds. A couple of other fairgoers tried to lift it, and could barely manage to hold it in their arms. The table creaked rather alarmingly when it was put back down  :P

Sam has been with several different cells, though most have been quickly demolished or never got beyond the planning stages. She probably would not have been with this group all that long; say, a month or so.

Sam had been sitting with her back to one of the cellar's walls, miming out a marching tune. Partly to stay in practice, partly to distract herself from the group's worsening situation.

Dont be impatient, wait longer. All the ghosts in your head waited months for you to start making this cheese you can wait for a bit longer to cook it
+1

Also, officially name SmallerDaffodil and share your dreams with it. The time will pass quickly!

Sonora, California!

Sounds hot!
It really isn't, at least this time of year! It's up into the mountains a little ways, nicely forested.

Not the real kind, sadly :P
It's a replica and probably ill-suited to actually hitting things with, but it's well-made, nice to look at, and something like a fifth of the price of one of the genuine pieces...

Anyway I'm no expert on swords. It's got a blade roughly the length of my arm, straight and edged on both sides.

But what if your waifu is *also* focused on evading damage?

If Neo can barely run Red Faction Guerilla, I doubt he can handle New!DOOM.

Not if you're focused on avoiding damage rather than dishing it out :P
