Sometimes I see people doing this about "future" stuff they learn about, but I think it's time to shake it up a bit. I feel like I've accidentally taken a history class. Not complaining, of course. I didn't pay attention in school.

[Written:]

Things I've Learned About the Renaissance (in the past ~10 months):
- Wine is preferred over water (it tastes BAD and you can't convince me otherwise)
- Getting dressed takes forever because you have to put on layers, sleeves, and tie things. Zippers probably brought people to tears when they were invented. Not just because of accidentally zipping up bits.
- Various Italian words, mostly inappropriate and/or used to hit on people
- Dances are weird and make me a little dizzy
- Fresh pasta is a thing
- ~~Showing too much skin is Very Bad and makes big brother unhappy~~ [So gone!] Pants for women = weird!
- Bankers are just as boring as they are in my time
- Don't call da Vinci "da Vinci" because that is wrong
- Popes can have the cutest daughters
- Medicine is pretty much leeches and opium
- Cardinals are not all old men with wrinkles
- "Italy" isn't really a thing yet, just a bunch of city-states (or something? I forgot. Sorry!)
- Something about chaperones... dating is complicated
- Insert more stuff I should remember

[Tap tap. This is Steph not talking about nightmares or crazy cats or bumps to the head or depressing things that have occurred in the past 30-something days.]

Nosy, much?

What?! I heard my name!

And look what happened. You got wounded.

So I should just ignore it when beautiful women are discussing me?

You shouldn't assume it's going to be anything good. As you've just seen.

Good thing I am too interesting and imaginative to be truly hurt by your slings and arrows.

You're so devastated that you're making up stuff. Tragic. Unfortunately, I'm way too busy to play nurse these days, so maybe Lana will step up in my place.

I'd like that. Maybe she will consent to bathing me, unlike you.

There are some lines you and I will never cross. That is one of them.

Good luck, Lana.

[he just laughs. he luvs you, Steph :')]

[He better. If this leads to sexy bathtimes, he owes her forever.]

[Of course! Flowers and all.]

Hey, why does she need good luck?

Mm? No reason.

[Innocent :') ]

Out with it, mia cara!

[But Steph, I am a gentle and thorough lover :'(]

Now you're talking about me. Cut it out!

Besides, I'd make a terrible nurse.

Rest assured I have nothing but compliments and faith in your abilities, Lana!

Unless you suddenly break all of your limbs [ or you put a gd ring on her finger ], you're never getting a bath from me.

I will remind you of that next time I find myself in a cast.

If you ever land in a body cast, I'd have to be very disappointed in you.

Disappointed while you wash my sore and tired body, you mean.

There's nothing to say! [A laugh. YES... YES...]

Strange words from someone who is usually so full of opinions!

I'm sorry to disappoint. I got nothin'!

[Just gonna spy on this stuff, yup.]

You always surprise me.

It's a talent, but even I have my off days. Maybe I'll take a vacation to recharge while your new nurse settles into her role.
