Ladyshrew est plus silly.

After awhile, it occurred to me that the ending of 'The Pimpernel and Rosemary' leaves one with a nice little set up for a Pimpy WW2 fic. Peter Blakeney is in posession of an estate in Hungary at the end of the novel- and it is the mid 1920s. I think it would be a really promising situation. I said as much to ladyshrew:

Philosophercat: Heh. It would be neat to see what Chau-chau's descendants are up to.
Philosophercat: He had a daughter in the books.
Philosophercat: I hope Armand did not breed. -_-
LadyShrew: ROFL
Philosophercat: Whatever they're doing, I will make Chau-chau's descendants look like William Michals. *cackle*
Philosophercat: See? Manipulating canon is fun!
LadyShrew: ::giggles::
LadyShrew: I think you should make Percy's descendants early mutants.
Philosophercat: Peter is already a giant...
LadyShrew: OH I was watching this week's ep of Grey's Anatomy, and I realized Cristina's ex-bf was SO Chau. ::snerk::
LadyShrew: lol!
Philosophercat: He is!
Philosophercat: Percy was too.
LadyShrew: see! mutants!
LadyShrew: so you could totally write an early x-men type Pimpy fic
LadyShrew: and that'd just be hot.
Philosophercat: Peter looks just like Percy, too- and Rosemary looks like Marguerite. It's too much of a coincidence.
LadyShrew: hahaha
Philosophercat: So... Fleurette Chauvelin's great great grandson... looks like William Michals. Has to have something to do with eastern Europe.
Philosophercat: Travelling musican?
Philosophercat: Dance instructor?
Philosophercat: Spy?
Philosophercat: Linguist?
LadyShrew: Linguist
Philosophercat: lol
Philosophercat: a sexily hot linguist
LadyShrew: yes
LadyShrew: can I be his fellow linguist geek gf? ;-)
LadyShrew: hey! I bet he can spell!
Philosophercat: I will think about it. They are near Greece. Maybe they need to save you.
Philosophercat: The Nazis want to invade Greece and they need you to translate something for them, so they've kidnapped you, and Chau-chau's descendant doesn't know who else to turn to.
Philosophercat: But that's how a lot of these stories go. Dang! Chauvelin's kidnapped my woman!
LadyShrew: Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
LadyShrew: that's hot.
Philosophercat: But you'd have to swoon a lot. Think you can do that?
LadyShrew: yup

ETA: Okay, and then we determined that she was allowed to brandish a sword at some point- probably a gladius although she would be unable to hide it in her dress. Also, citing canon precedent, I noted that I would have to give my Chau-Chau a mad love scene and that this was allowed because 'he's allowed to be a good guy since the bad guys got his woman.'
