All right, so this is interesting. Nightengale is a big RenFaire fan, she loves those things. There's a faire coming up in autumn that she wants to attend, and I with her. She's been trying to get me to a faire for years, so I figured why not?
"Oh and you have to dress up!" She tells me. Woah, me? Dress in medieval garb? I can speak the lingo (thank you, Shakespeare), but I was really unsure of going. What good am I going to be at a ren faire? But then I thought that it might actually be fun to do something so out of my comfort zone.
"What kind of costume will you wear? I'll help you make it!" She is an incredible seamstress. But who or what would I be? I don't really care for the long skirts and layers that are required of women, I prefer the clothing that men get to wear. Its simpler. But wait! An idea came to me. I could dress as Arwen. The first time we see her in Lord Of The Rings, she's wearing a riding outfit. Pants with a flowing top that extends to the knees. Its lovely and something I could wear all the time if I wanted.
This isn't something I'm comfortable doing, but I suppose it would be good for me to go out of that zone I'm forcing myself into.
