Women of Sinai -Al-‘Arish

The Sinai dress is a masterpiece of art. Some dresses are predominantly red and are only worn by married women, while the blue ones are worn by widows. Dresses with a mixture of blue and red are an indication that the wearer has ended her period of mourning and is now ready to marry again.

The number of colors and the geometric designs embroidered by the women of Sinai on their dresses makes the latter a marvelous background for their kind of jewelry. It is the same as the Palestinian dress known as the Bir Sab' dress, with reference to the Palestinian area adiacent to the borders of the Sinai Peninsula.

The burgu', or veil, is an important piece of adornment worn only by the married Bedouin women of Sinai. It can almost be considered a piece of jewelry, for it is covered with quantities of hilyat, or round pieces of silver or white metal, or even gold, and sometimes old metal coins. The burgu is also sometimes adorned with a number of chains attached to both sides of the veil, ending in silver units covered with primitive designs stamped onto them, or ending with units of tube coral.

There are only two types of veil in Sinai, the short one worn by the women of the Akharsa tribe and with it a silver necklace or pendant, and the long veil worn by the women of the Bayyada tribe. Unmarried girls leave their faces uncovered so that young men may see their beauty and seek to marry them.

The Sinai Peninsula is inhabited by a number of Bedouin tribes who migrated to Egypt from the Arab peninsula and Palestine in ancient times. They settled, mixed, and intermarried with the different communities of inhabitants surrounding the peninsula, starting with the people of the Egyptian governorate of Sharqiya to the inhabitants of Bir Sab' in Palestine. The borders were open then and an active trade exchange flourished. Moreover, the Palestinian towns and cities were a market for Egyptian products. As a result of the intermarriages, there is a great resemblance between the jewelry worn in Sinai and the jewelry worn in Palestine, so much so that some jewelry workshops in Cairo specialize in producing the pieces of jewelry sold in Palestinian markets.

Do you think anyone ever tells fem!Danny that she looks like Talia?

Yes! Anyone who knew Talia would probably point out that she resembles her mother. Danny's got her old man's blue eyes and black hair and eyebrows, but predominantly her mother's features. Danny's a momma's girl even with the difficulties of leaving the League, so she would take that with pride honestly. Her mother is the most beautiful woman in the world in her eyes.

I'm thinking about when Damian and Danyal reunite and they're trying to reconcile/reconnect, I'm imagining that Damian just staring at his sister one day. When Danny calls him out on it, he eventually admits that she looks like mother. Danyal stops what she's doing for a moment, and then quietly preens because it's what thing to hear it from other people, its another to hear it from her brother.

Picrew link! As normal I don't like adding to chains because I worry about clogging dashes but love getting tags to do. If you don't suffer from over zealous anxiety like moi and I've tagged you feel free to add on the chains by the lovely people who tagged me found: Here, here, here, here, here and here! I guarantee they will not mind a bit. Feel free to ignore me though, or say I tagged you!

having a conversation with my friends about dating just reminds me how i desperately need demi/aroace/lesbian friends bc wtf is this shit😭

looking at me like im the crazy one bc i don't want to approach an aesthetically pleasing girl to ask her out and instead want to form a devastatingly co-dependant and ambiguous relationship with her under the guise of being best friends like no you're the weird ones

giuuuiiggghhhn. Firstborn Dagonet. Dags. Hair and coat modeled vaguely after genus Castilleja.

we’ve been sending blighted Trahearne on the run from the authorities on a journey of self-discovery, which has been causing problems for most people in general, but particularly for Siren’s Landing. Trahearne makes a covert/reluctant return to Orr during an effort to clean up Balthazar and Kralkatorrik’s mess, and absolutely gooses it in front of everyone. now they know Mordremoth is still alive and still skulking around in the body of The Disgraced Pact Marshal Trahearne and that he’s also here, for some reason.

But more importantly he gooses it in front of his brother, who just kind of gets to live with the knowledge that he’s still alive, now.

Rereading (and of course live blogging) the series. If you don't wanna see this but don't wanna block me, I'll tag my liveblog posts with #dag liveblogs charlie bone.

In addition to parts I have Comments about, I'll also be noting every time a character's appearance is described. So far we have Charlie and Grandma Bone.

Wait he doesn't turn 11. He TURNS 10??? He starts the series as a 9 year old??? We need a Benjamin Brown Protection Squad.

Grandma Bone description. Also, I feel like the whole "after midnight magic" angle would have been cool to explore. WHY does it work better after midnight? When does it stop being "after midnight"? ARE endowments enhanced after midnight? Etc

We need a Benjamin Brown Protection Squad.

Descriptions.

And, since I'll be going in chapters, that's all for this post.

Hello it's me and I'm in your "Asks" ☺️

What/who made you come to simblr and what/who made you stay?

If there's a "who" everyone go thank @marcishaun for inviting me over. She and @azuhra helped me get settled.

"What" was just wanting to share what goes on in my game when I've spent so much time on it. And try to make friends because being stuck at home thanks to mental and physical challenges actually makes it hard to meet people.

As for staying, I landed in a great corner of tumblr. A bunch of talented, kind people without ego. I feel like I can ask questions and will get a proper response rather than people yelling at me to go try google. I think many of my moots genuinely want to see simblrs do well and I love being in this environment. I stick around for all the people who chat in my comments and let me chat in theirs, it makes me feel like I've actually socialised with people during the day. Big hugs to the people who chat with me in messages as well, whether it be regularly or sporadically.

You don’t have to answer !!

THANK YOU ofc I'll answer!!

30. Overall favourite part of RTC and/or the fandom?

Favourite part of RTC is HARD, the characters absolutely have my heart and the worldbuilding around Uranium is so important to me but I can't pick a favourite element!! Fandom wise, I adore my lovely little circle of RTC people, everyone is so lovely and super talented and it just makes me so happy!! This fandom is so comfy and creative and everyone is the sweetest <333

23. What would your catchphrase be and/or what 'The ___ in Town' would you be called?

Catchphrase: if it was short like Constance's, "Well...." with a proper elongated vowel sound is very me I say that all the time, if it was something longer it might be something with a similar vibe to Ricky's? I'd have to think about it and write one

The other thing: At first when I wrote the questions mine was The Loneliest Boy in Town, which could still work but I don't think that really fits me anymore? Ricky already stole imaginative so I can't use that! I'm not really sure how people perceive me lmao

20. Favourite RTC fanfic/fic author/fic recs in general?

YESSSSS!!! Okay, EASY. I'm sure plenty of people already know and love Sierra (Seddiefan11)'s fics BUT I'LL STILL PROMOTE EM ALL ABSOLUTELY LOVE <3333 URL I Need is literally the cutest, most precious nischa fluff ever it makes my day every single update 🥰

One of my favourite fics, Let the Light In by the wonderful vsapphire, it is so beautifully written and I ADORE it, literally some of my favourite writing ever and the plotline is deliciously angsty and full of nischa goodness, IT IS PERFECT 💖

I ALSO HAVE TO PROMOTE MY AMAZING FRIEND MADDIE (Moodles171) AND ALL OF HER STUFF GO READ!!! NOW!!! I cannot promote her multichap Born Yesterday enough it is absolutely incredible so far YOU MUST GO READ!! this is me hypnotising you you wanna read maddie's fics soooooo bad GO READ IT

is that sappho you're reading? by jup1ter_moon, absolutely lovely perfectdolls slowburn it has my whole heart the backstory is SO GOOD and I cannot recommend it enough <333

Uranium, Uranium by Cr0w_Qui11, also absolutely wonderful worldbuilding and is fully getting me on board with CDPlayer, it's a PERFECT combination of Legoland and RTC

THERE ARE PROBABLY MORE BUT THESE I LOVE <333

8. Favourite cut character?

Ooo, I'm not sure! I don't really know much about them tbh, if anyone who loves them and knows a bunch wants to rant about them in my asks PLEASE DO!! I would say I'm most curious about Astrid though, I think she could be a fun addition to fics, if I knew more I'd definitely try writing with her

1. Favourite production?

Trinity Theatre has been my favourite for a while, it's definitely still up there but I think Majestic Rep might be my favourite now?? It is SO GOOD, the characterisation is so perfect and detailed and the dynamics between characters is different but in THE BEST WAY. Oh and of course our lord and saviour the people's Mischa, Ray Winters, INSTANTLY my favourite Mischa ever

THIS IS SO LONG HELP, thanks for all the questions!!
