With similar reasoning, and because I think he just might be this tricksy, how about D'Dan Raven?

It was me last time, it's not me this time!

EDIT: And from that I'm guessing you are Eslaine. I didn't know that. Or perhaps I did but I didn't register it. If it's not you let me know so I can make a better guess!

You know, I was going to guess Morbo.

But since you did, how about Brinestone?

*shakes head in disbelief* You know, when Clark Kent talks about himself in third person, it's bad enough.

Erik, there are THREE of you talking to/about yourself/ves in this thread!

No wonder poor Teshi is confused!



Am I allowed to guess again if Nate hasn't come and noed my last guess?

rivka: Thank you! So Eslaine, No. 6 and Achilles and Eslaine are all the same person, and they are not in any way shape or form Celia?

I am fairly certain.

With Erik, no SN is ever guaranteed to be him, but as far as I can tell, yes.

And if any of them are celia, I'll eat my hat. (This offer only applies to posts posted by those SNs before the time stamp on this post. It is not transferable and expires immediately.)

[ROFL] That is, they're not the original celia. I make no guarantees that they are not also the celia who just posted.

quote:
Also, I'm very confused - the last line seems to indicate that this Piida is his wife, yet in the first paragraph she says she has only been in the wives' area before to clean it
Belle, it is slightly confusing the way it's written, but the Sabotta the couple is snuggling in is not the wives area, but an area wives are forbidden without the husband's OK.
quote:
his Sabotta, the part of his house that wives did not enter without permission. I had entered it before only to clean it
I would emphasize the taboo element of the area, make Piida more thrilled to be in there--forbidden love is the best kind!

The d'names don't bother me, I'm neutral on that.
It's a good point that a good awareness of body positions is important in scenes like this. It was a little vague, could be better there.

I'm guessing JaneX.

Can we make multiple guesses within a reasonable number?

Meanwhile, I'll guess Noemon because I'm running out of reasons.

Somehow the passage makes me remember pooka's "chess" landmark... [Dont Know] It's such a simple text, and yet it feels a little strange, "out of this world". So I'll say pooka.

Thanks! [Hat]

This is the first time I actually thought I had a clue about the author. Oh, and I just noticed: the wife's name is "Piida"?! Too close to "pooka", I wonder if that's what actually trigered the thought in me... [Dont Know]

Oh man, I'll have you all know that it was too painful for me to re-read in the context of this thread [Blushing] Though I did read the speculations. If it's any comfort, my naming scheme for wives had different morphology for senior wives, lesser wives, and multiple wives being addressed by inferiors.

And, uh, you can double your pleasure by finding my dream thread on GC to find out who inspired this... er... thing. Congrats Corwin [Hail]
