Would you rather?

Hm, I instinctively think Paddington would be the more competent player of the two though I wouldn't expect either to be actually good per se, I'll play against Paddington though.

You visit the castle of a giant. You can take away one oversized item: would you rather a pair of silk gloves each big enough for you to fit into, or a couple of dice big enough to be used as side-tables?

I could cut the silk gloves to make a dress or something, but I think I'd rather have dice tables. My fabric stash is already bigger than it reasonably should be.

You accompany me to the castle. What would you rather take: a very spacious pair of shoes or a huge apple from the giant's kitchen?

Jubal

Hm, these seem like less useful options :) I guess the apple, in that I could actually use it and I have nowhere to even put the shoe (unless I could profitably sell it to a shoemaker as a window display). But using the apple would be an operation: I guess I'd have to hire a big kitchen and get several friends to be cutting it up and processing it simultaneously so as not to waste it through browning.

You're getting a personal bard. Would you rather an alto bluegrass banjo singer or a smooth jazz bass singer who plays jazz cello?

The Seamstress

That's actually rather difficult to decide. I think it would have to be the cello though I'm not 100% convinced I'd like it in the long run, but I'm even less sure I like banjo music enough to be constantly exposed to it... I'd probably go mad sooner or later from all that rapid deedle-deedle-dee-ing.

If you'd learn another instrument, would you rather learn harp or saxophone?

Jubal

Harp, absolutely. I could sing along with a harp, can't really do that with the saxophone.

Would you rather spend three days living with a giant anteater in your flat, or living with an eagle owl in your flat?

The Seamstress

Hm, probably the anteater? Seems a bit friendlier, judging from the looks.

Would you rather be a human in a chicken's body or a chicken in a human's body?

Jubal

Human in a chicken's body, my brain is more important than my corporeal form.


Would you rather have a rainbow-colourful or a matte black computer keyboard?

The Seamstress

My current laptop one is black which is okay, but I think I'd like a colourful one. Pastels? And maybe some glitter.

Would you rather be able to stare actual holes into walls or to stare into The Void seeing everything past, present, and future, gaining cosmic enlightenment and wisdom?

Jubal

I could probably do with the enlightenment and wisdom as I feel a bit smol and dim lately.  :pangolin:

Would you rather join MyStuffed, a social media site where every account is for a verified soft toy or plushie, or Lacebook, a social media site which only accepts verified tailors, weavers, and other textile workers and artists as members?
The duke, the wanderer, the philosopher, the mariner, the warrior, the strategist, the storyteller, the wizard, the wayfarer...

The Seamstress

Aaaah both if I could! Lacebook sounds really cool. But at the moment I think I need the plush cuteness more, so MyStuffed it is.

Tea and sandwiches or tea and cake?

Jubal

Tea and cake :)

Saffron rice or barberry rice?

The Seamstress

Hm, saffron rice I think?

Fruit or vegetables?
