Darsint was cool but I never got the feeling he was all that much of a conversationalist. :D I think Artagel had a good sense of humor so he would be hot and make you laugh alot. :biggrin: Although he could never be as hot and clever as the watchmen who read and liked Mordant's Need.... :P
Now if I could just find a way to wear live bees as jewelry all the time.....

Same and I just read that part.

Edit: /facepalm naturally it's a plot point that he's kinda like Nyle. So I guess the girls can use him as a benchmark of how attractive Underwood might be.

He's the guy that works long hours and is never home, and with whom you drift apart after years of kidding yourselves, only to be left alone after wasting the best years of your life.

Jeesh. You're living in some kind of fantasy world. :)

Go with Nyle. He's a nerd, and nerds worship women, plus they are super hot in the sack.
I could never go for a guy like Nyle. He's kind of wimpy.

I maintain that I could train him to think interesting thoughts like that one. He would just need a little encouragement. :P

Agreed.

It would just have to be towels rather than something as slippery as plastic.

Interesting that the one character that gets zip votes here is the Prince. You KW folks aren't just a bunch of Snow Whites on here, are you?

Artagel, definitely Artagel.

Well, some certainly exhibit such a trait; Effy for instance loves to be awoken by a gentle kiss every morn while doves coo in rosebushes around her glass coffin -shaped bed. Mainly pity the pigeons that get thorns all over the place.
Those that prefer to get steamy with seven dwarves are a different matter altogether...

As for men, Honninscrave is the hottest!!

Hey Frosty! :wave:

Honniscrave was a lovely giant
He did a magnificent deed
But you can't have him, I'm afraid
'Cos he's not in Mordant's Need!!

Forsooth, that I do well ken
But consider that selection of men!
How would the poor lads ever meet
The requirements that them greet
By a woman the height of over twelve feet?
Alas, the romp would soon end
With the fellow underneath flattened
Even Master Eremis with his ample charms
Serves not, regardless of unctuous smarms
Only a giant another one truly warms.

There was young 'prentice from Mordant
Who magicked a large giant rampant
Frosty said "Oh I'll wager
he vanquished a raver"
and they returned to Andelain verdant.

Sorry about that, I'm not much good at writing verse!!

To find a mate for a giant
Who will make her romantically pliant
An Adept should translate
Some immense reprobate
On whose loving she will soon be reliant

A lady who's twelve feet high
Is still a beauty in my eye
The risk of a compaction
Might be a detraction
But o what a way to die.

Because I voted for "I don't like men, but want to see the poll results", I truly have no kresh in this fight. But it was fun to see the answers, and my sincere thanks to all responders. :)

I especially like that part, for it succinctly sums up why a Giantess must be especially selective...not for reason of snobbery, but for reason of altruism.
