As the LJ name might suggest, I'm rather badly into SW (although, uh, I think it's all been temporarily subsumed into the OMFG BUSH OMFG HORATIO OMFG SHIPS THAT CREAK OMFG), and last semester, I had this prof who looked like Obi-Wan Kenobi in the prequels? And the subject matter was great enough, but I'd just get this immense kick out of pretend that it was, in fact, Obi-Wan giving me my lessons. ^_^
1b. So say that in the total hypothetical, Bush needs to replace his hair riband during the four month stay, he's not going to be able to just ask Horatio to ask one of the servants to casually pick one up on the next trip to the village? I'm sure they've got somethinmg that'll suffice, but he'll have to find something equivalent and make do with that until he gets back home, right?
And, additionally, should they have been worried that Bush's little queue would raise suspicions while they were trying to impersonate officers? I mean, I know it was only planned to be a brief impersonation (and they were pretending to be Dutch, too), but was the black-wrapped queue a v. distinctive British form of dress?
2. So there issome status differential associated with it. And I'm assuming from the phrasing of your answer that it's not something that could be solved by a you-do-me, I'll-do-for-you arrangement. And we know that Bush doesn't think a hell of a lot about most of the people that he commands.
*awaits your epiphany because she's damned if she knows*
6. So you get issued the water twice a week and it has to last you from issuing to issuing. Do you keep it in a little cask of your own, then?
And yes, I burn to know the most random things. I really am sorry for being like the most OMGZ newbie ever.
