The filk began with the ceremonial washing of ladymondegreen and akawil's car. Apparently, they'd brought their laundry to do during the filk, and the bleach exploded during the trip--drenching laundry, car, and all.
After that got dealt with, we settled in -- first, before the filk had really started, drcpunk and I sang "N'Im Ineteen".
Then batyatoon introduced everyone, going around in a circle asking people to say their name, their quest, and their favorite method of homicide. I didn't write down anyone else's, but my quest was "Eternal Life," and as for the other:
My favorite murder's plain to see for not in vain, I'll climb a tree and slay em all--with poetry
It's doggrel, of course, but that's part of the joke. And not bad for an insta.
