... I'm pretty sure there's a terrible joke disagreeing with that statement that involves virgin olives, somewhere in there.

*shrugs* I'm fairly young too, I think (or at least not entirely middle-aged, yet), and I know the name, at least. The only association with it that my mind has is recognizing it as a really impressive stage name for a male gay porn star, though.

E: Probably perfect for a french or german american, even.

Slaves don't act while there's masters on the field in D4. At all. Don't even defend themselves, iirc. You'd have a physically powerful commander just kinda' sitting there with its finger up its bum unless the masters peaced out somehow. Probably better to just buff the guys with buffs that aren't caster targeted.

They would, but do remember they can't actually do anything in D4 while under the effect of the slave spell so long as masters are still on the field. Reverse communions got mostly nixed.

... not sure if they'd still tank the fatigue or not, though.

Unless the slave effect just flat doesn't work on non-casters, which may have been what EA was intimating.

Sounds neat. I have no idea what that is save that it sounds like something you might punch someone with

Re: almond milk: Cooee. Will have to try to make pudding pie sometime tonight or tomorrow with it, then. Maybe try mac & cheese soonish. Then other stuff! S'made me feel a bit funny after consuming it, probably mostly because it was the first time I've had any, but the taste was nice and the lingering sensation/aftertaste better than actual milk. Can see it be really good with anything that goes well with nuts, since you can definitely tell almonds were involved in the making, heh.

And cashew milk would probably be pretty similar. Also something I now want to try, because while I do like almonds well enough, I really like cashews, and if the taste translation is similar I might have found a new luxury drink. _{though I think my biggest question now is if they make pecan milk, and if so, how feasible it is to construct in a normal kitchen, because there's a pecan orchard outside this house and, uh.*}

No clue on the snail pie front, though. Assuming I could stomach the snails (probably can't ), I'd probably be looking for a way to replace the butter with... something else. Not sure what. But something. Kinda' lost the taste for butter over the last several years of only very rarely using any.

... also probably not use the booze, either. Even using it in cooking, I generally prefer to use something more... direct? I guess is the word for it. Whatever part of the alcohol I'm looking for re: taste (either the sweet parts or the rest), I just go for something that's got that and skip the unnecessary intervening substances. Haven't cooked with it much, though, and then just cheap wines.

*Okay, it turns out it's easy, if somewhat time consuming on the prep (pecans need soaking for at least a half day or so, looks like, if you want it very smooth), and I really need to get around to finding out what the hell a tea towel is and acquiring some. Or just a really fine strainer, I guess. Might be one around here, but I don't think so...
