The Quill Is Mightier...

Anonymous asked: Hi, Gabrielle! :) Lately you and Xena are not around, where are you? We miss ya!

Hey, Anony!

Gods, we’ve been traveling a lot! And I’ve been stuck with a lot of studies lately.. We’ve found some ancient scrolls with a lot of interesting stories, and I’m thinking about writing a ballad about them. So now Xena and I are traveling to find historical proof of them! It’s been fun, but rather dangerous. And the internet connection around here sucks. 

At the moment we’re at an inn in the middle of nowhere, where we have miraculously good connection. Xena says she’s too tired for Tumblr, and she’s grown a bit weary of all those perverts. But I’m here more often, and I missed you all!

I promise I’ll kick her butt so she won’t abandon you guys! 

Thanks for the concern, Anony! 

Anonymous asked: Do you ever dress up? Like, in costume? For Xena?

Umm… Yeah, let’s just say we kept those costumes from Egypt and some others…

Well, they were very expensive, Gabrielle… It’d be a waste to just throw them away.

True, Xena. So true.

Keep the tree tying for your special scrolls Gab ;)

Surely will!

thefifthsister replied to your post: Hey Gab. How are you? Xena comes down from her chocolate high?

Chocolate and lethal combat skills are not a good combination

Yeah… Lunatics with lethal combat skills are never a good match. Even if you love the lunatic with lethal combat skills. Tie them to a tree, always works.

Anonymous asked: When did you fall in love with Xena?

I don’t know the exact moment. I mean, since I started travelling with her, I loved her as my best friend. But the moment I realized I was in love with her was probably when I almost lost her the first time. I mean, when she died but she managed to come back using Autolicus to help her. It was also the first time we kissed. 

Soul-kissed, but still…

Anonymous asked: What weapons do you use?

Lately I’ve been using my sais, but I used a staff, a sword and Xena taught me how to use her chakram. 

thefifthsister asked: Hey Gab. How are you? Xena comes down from her chocolate high?

Oh hi dear! 

Yes, finally! She was starting to freak me out.

She even tried to go after the bunnies to see if they had more chocolate, but I tied her to a tree, and everything went smoothly. If you exclude her screams of “GABRIELLE! I’M GONNA KILL YOU! LET ME GO RIGHT NOW. I WANT CHOCOLATE!!!”

urukhaiandjskar asked: Oh, I actually live on the opposite plain, Skyrim.

Well… It must be nice to visit sometimes… 

Xena and I went such a long time ago. We should really come back.

meetthenightfury asked: ..J'Skar has consumed magic juice. /boops your nose/

Erm… Another one under the effects of something… At least it wasn’t the special nutbread, right?

urukhaiandjskar asked: /He nods/ G'day, bard!

/She menaces her head/ Good day! How’s Middle-Earth?

thefifthsister replied to your post: thefifthsister replied to your post: If you were…

She’d save the bard that wrote the scrolls

“I would save her and leave all the other items.”

“I could write the scrolls again anyway…”

“Yeah, Gabrielle, that’s exactly why I’d save you.”

“I love you too, Xena.”

“That was implied.”

thefifthsister replied to your post: If you were on a house in the middle of a fire, what 3 items would you save? (I said items, Xena doesn’t count…)

What three items would Xena save?

She’d probably save her chakram, her sword and Argo’s saddle. Yeah let Gabrielle’s scrolls burn…

“I’d try to save your scrolls as well…” 

“I know you would, my warrior.”

thefifthsister asked: Not to alarm you but some kind of rabbit seems to be roaming around the country. I think it's a trying to raise an army. It's left some form of chocolate around that seems to be allowing it to control children. Gab, do not eat the chocolate!!!! DO NOT EAT THE CHOCOLATE!!! We can't let the bunnies take over

THE BUNNIES ARE TAKING OVER THE COUNTRY.

I’ve seen about 20 of them today… As a matter of fact they letft some chocolates at camp, but I was already aware of them, and I did not eat it.

Xena on the other hand said it was stupid to fear candy and ate it all.

She’s now sugar high, jumping up and down and doing back flips… I just hope it’ll pass soon. She seems worse than when she eats the “special” nutbread.

I warned her not to trust bunnies.

asteriustheminotaur asked: /His eyes, fluttering his ears in joy/ Do you know any songs of my people?

Gabrielle let herself relax a little.

“I happen to know a couple of them…”

thefifthsister asked: Hey Gab. Still mad at Xena or did you guys work it out?

Yeah, we’re ok now…

Let’s just say we worked things out.

Plus, she gave me chocolates…
