Roman Sandals and Viking Axes

[sevendeadlyfun]

Pairing: Spike/Angel

Rating: SFW

A/N: I had a manip-bunny sneak up on me the other day. A clash of civilizations...Spangel style....For my fellow medievalists, yes I know Angel's outfit isn't technically historically accurate. I couldn't find a really good legionnaire base...However, Spike's base is from a Scadian picture..They don't call them the Society for Compulsive Authenticity for nothing! :)

Mmmm... they look absolutely tasty.
Angel would have made a great legionnaire and Spike looks perfect as a Norseman.
Warriors through and through.
(oh and *grin* on the SCA comment)

I'm a Dagorhirian, but most of my friends go play at Pennsic every year. I've heard more realism arguments than I care to remember. I think it was a Scadian who coined the phrase "Body funk is period". But, I'll give them credit for being incredibly dedicated to their sport. Me? I just want to hit people and then go dance by the fire...


Glad you liked it, hon!

They have the same argument here every year it seems.
Recreation vs Re-enactment vs Living History *sigh*

I don't fight anymore but I do shoot (English longbow), I go Norse occasionally because my Norse garb is warmer than my Surcoat (which is prettier)
I'm there for the food, booze and a bloody good shag in the furs...

So very nice, our boys are. You gotta love a man in uniform!

Wow, you've hit a button I didn't even know I had :)

And so I do! I married a military boy just so I could see a hot guy in uniform for the rest of my life. Thanks, hon! I think this was probably the most difficult manip I've ever done...I'm glad you liked it!

Ah, yes! The joys of ancient civilizations. If I could have found some good pictures of the Pompeii whorehouse mosaics, I totally would have included them. Maybe some other time! Thanks, and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
