6:45 is when the Fezzi's closing is supposed to start. I think they were running a tad late yesterday, though.
Yes, your jacket is too recent for Dickens. Though with some sewing modifications it could work pretty well (make it more of a cutaway, morning coat affair, or tails). Though it seems a shame to do that to a very nice period piece like that. I'd probably just look for another one over the next year. The ascot was fine, though. Stripes were fine, and to combine the stripes with the floral print was VERY Victorian. Add some plaid pants and you REALLY would have had it! :^D
Akien wore his wedding outfit because he felt like it. It's more comfortable than the more period stuff, and his neck was out of alignment (still is actually).
Yes, Michael was Neptune himself. :^) No, Akien and I did not meet at Fair, though it could be said that we met BECAUSE OF Fair, in one sense. We first met at my house on E 18th in Oakland. My housemate Tom worked Dickens in 1986, and met Clovis there. Clovis was a once-and-future GF of Akien's. They all ended up in a threesome for a while, and I first met Akien when he came to our house with Clovis to pick Tom up for some event or another. The second (and to Akien more memorable!) occasion of our meeting was at Randy's house for a rehearsal of that musical that Michael wrote (Bronwyn, a musical based on Welsh mythology). The first performance was at 12th Night Coronation in the SCA. (I performed in it the same day I got my Laurel, actually. :^) Then Michael wanted to re-stage it at UCB (where he was still attending school, IIRC), which necessitated re-casting a few roles. Akien joined the cast at that time, and we started dating the night of the cast party in March of 1987.
