Would you rather go on a camping trip somewhere in the wilderness, or stay at a luxury spa for free & however long you like?

In general the camping trip, though honestly right now I probably ought to pick the spa because that may be more what my joint/muscle issues need.

Would you rather meet the protagonist of the last book you read, or the subject of the last news article you read?

[The Seamstress]

The book protagonist, definitely. That would be this one.

Same question - book or newspaper article?

[Jubal]

I think the last book I properly read was Rose of the World, in which it's arguable who even is the protagonist and I'm not sure I'd get much out of meeting them, whereas I would probably like to yell at/commiserate with whichever Georgian politician would count from my news reading this evening, so I'll do the latter.
