Whitby vignettes

Here are only a few of the moments that will remain in my memory from last weekend:
Thundering through moorland and forest on my brave (well, psychotic) black steed, on a riding excursion arranged by the fair and valiant
wyte_phantom.
Weeping with laughter at a fantastic silent vampire film made by
gothichaven and friends. Watch for it soon on an internet thingy near you.
Witnessing the reunion of
speedlime and
orkamedies. It's been more than a year since the Ork came to the States, strewing chaos and squeaky ferrets in his wake, and he and Speedy and Suetekh and I had what is officially the Best DragonCon Ever. Speedy and he hadn't seen each other from then to now: cue many loud noises and much reminiscing over cups of tea, pints of ale and such.
Conversing about books, music and life in general with
rosenkavalier, who has a fine appreciation for such things.
Being beguiled into attending '80s Night by the irresistible eyes of
fracture_242. I'd never witnessed the full force of said eyes before, and they are mighty. Sauron has nothing on Fracture. Seriously.
speedlime dancing in stately manner at '80s Night, a bottle of something strange and blue balanced perfectly on her head between her purple cyberfalls.
Watching
velvetdahlia win hearts and occasionally, gently, break them.
Singing Viennese waltzes by the Abbey as
fairie_ring and
kay_lake danced in the golden afternoon sunlight in the ruins of the Abbey, the wind playing merry hell with all our clothes. This Whitby was the first time I sang for many of my Goth friends, and their kind words were very moving.
The same Abbey by cold moonlight as
esdi_leanne,
fairie_ring and I passed around a jug of milk and some Mr Kiplings almond fingers. For we are hardcore.

There were really too many such moments to count, but I look forward to many more. Group hug, anyone?... Anyone...? Oh, all right, fine, be that way.
