{ THE ESSENTIALS }

Name: Fior Anker Age: 276 Species: Lionfish merfolk Powers: As Lionfish Merfolk, he has venomous spines like a regular Lionfish in his “fish” form. Deity: Goddess of Death Gender, Pronouns, Sexual & Romantic identities: Cis-male. He/him. Demisexual. Grayromantic Residence / Years:  Esplanade Ridge / since 1812ish Affiliation / Years:  The Lightless / early beginnings Job / Workplace: Emissary / Owner of House of Usher, Funeral Home (Esplanade Ridge) Relationship status: Widower Positive traits: Lawful, reliable, intelligent, loyal, devoted Negative traits: Cynical, fatalist, passive-aggressive, phlegmatic, secretive

{ FAMILY TREE }

Parents: Deceased

Adoptive Parents: Deceased

Agnès Anker / Wife: Deceased (Voodoo Witch) | photo

Kai & Nova Anker / Twin children: Deceased | photo

Older sister: She’s dead to him (see wanted connection)

In-laws: See wanted connection (Voodoo Witches)

{ HEADCANONS }

He was born in Denmark, the youngest of two children. His birthday is March 3rd, making him a Pisces.

To this day, he has kept a hint of his Danish accent when he speaks.

His affinity to learn new languages had been extremely useful for his work as Emissary. Hence why he speaks over a dozen different languages to different degrees of fluency.

His biological parents died when he was around 10 in a freak accident. He was then adopted and half a decade later, his adoptive parents were murdered.

In his late 60’s, he visited New Orleans where he met the woman that would eventually become his wife (Agnès Duval/Angela Bassett fc). Agnès was part of the newly formed faction called The Chthonics (now known as the Lightless). It’s through her and the faction members that he learned to accept the many deaths in his life and go through his grief.

His calm nature and very neutral, but lawful way of seeing things made him an almost perfect candidate to be an Emissary in the late 1990’s. A position he’s held ever since.

During their life together, Agnès and Fior had an opened relationship, but truly only loved one another. They had twins together (a boy and a girl, named Kai and Nova respectively) whom died alongside their mother during a failed mission in 2018. The twins were 19 and his wife 241.

Following their deaths, Fior has been become phlegmatic; losing interest in anything romantic and sexual as the grief consumes him. He’s quite literally blind to any interest anyone could have in him, including ex-lovers.

His brief time as Mathias Attano’s lover made it possible for The Lightless to discover what the Deathrunners’ Higher Ups were planning to do with the young man (make him a vessel to become a new God of Life).

As an Emissary, he’s extremely charming, but doesn’t take well to being gaslighted, bullshitted or being on the receiving hand of blatant disrespect. Situations like that will either result in Fior becoming increasingly passive-aggressive―sending extremely polite insults that are easily missed, or leave the pourparler.

With a striking presence at 1.83m (6ft), Fior boasts unkempt, greying hair and piercing blue eyes, framed by a semi well-groomed, long stubble beard. His tattooed arms, adorned with black-and-white designs of lionfishes and voodoo symbols, pay tribute to his roots and lost loved ones. Often seen in short-sleeved buttoned shirts, he effortlessly transitions from sophisticated in a blazer to a rougher edge when sleeves are rolled up, showcasing his ink and the stories etched into his skin.

{ CONNECTIONS }

Suresh Lal / acquaintance: They met for the first time in mid-2019—underwater— while Fior was on a diplomatic mission. Since then, they've crossed path when diplomacy was required and the Lightless Leader wasn't available or Fior's presence was demanded by the naga himself. Fior feels very neutral about Suresh, mostly because he no longer stops to think about things beyond his work and is unaware of the Leader’s interest in him.

Mathias Attano / ex-lover: They met in 2017, unaware of each other's identity. It lasted until 2018, right after the loss of his wife and children when Mathias offered to bring them back. The argument that broke between them is how Fior found out the Deathrunners' plan for their messiah. Until recently, Fior still cared about the younger man, but their last few meeting has made it impossible for the Emissary to hold any positive feelings toward the Deathrunners Leader. He's still horrified by what is being done to him.

Lars Alexanderson: TBA

{ WANTED CONNECTIONS }

Older sister: Like a repeat of the siblings fight between the God of Death and the God of Life, Fior’s older sister is part of the newish faction The Nameless. While Fior has accepted Death itself and the many deaths in his life (even though he’s currently still grieving the loss of his wife and children) his older sister went down a different path; seeking revenge and her own justice against something that (while “unfair”) is natural. They have an antagonistic relationship (mostly from his side). She still loves him dearly (he's her baby brother after all) and they'd both be incapable of killing each other, but the tension when they're together is palpable. (Helen Mirren FC)

Deceased wife’s sibling: Just like all other members of the Duval family, they are part of the Lightless. They have a sibling-like relationship with Fior and are saddened by his current inability to move on or just enjoy life again. Agnès was the glue in the family and her presence has been missed. Not long after Agnès' death, Fior closed himself off completely for a year because of his grief, it almost put a strain on their relationship, but it's that same grief that brought them back together. While not a confident to Fior, they are one of the very few people the Emissary is comfortable to be vulnerable with. (Florence Kasumba, Djimon Hounsou, UTP similar +45 fc)

King Antonio De Alcantara | He/Him | 40 | Brazil and Chile | FC: Alfred Enoch

Basics:

NAME: Antonio De Alcantara

TITLE: King of Brazil and Chile

AGE: 40

FACECLAIM: Alfred Enoch

SEXUALITY: Bisexual

MARITAL STATUS: Widowed (First Marriage), Married to the Queen of Brazil/Chile

POSITIVE TRAITS: Loyal, Sensitive, Generous, Flexible

NEGATIVE TRAITS: Obstinate, Petulant, Stubborn, Cynical

Secret: YOU UNKNOWINGLY AUTHORIZED THE SALE OF POISONED CROPS TO LAL QILA, WHICH WAS THE CATALYST TO THE RECKONING. NOW, YOU ARE HAUNTED BY THE BLOOD ON YOUR HANDS.

The Story (So Far): tw: miscarriage, death

Antonio's life is a pendulum of love and loss. It started off that way - with a series of miscarriages until Antonio was the first to live past his first year. The people of Brazil waited with long and bated breath for Antonio's arrival. And when it came? When it stuck? Oh, how beloved he was. The prized, Crown Prince of Brazil. His life would be love, but as the realm would come to realize, it would also be loss.

Barely ten years of age when his father passed during the plague. Barely fourteen when his mother suffered from a grave stroke. Barely a boy, much less a King, when the crown settled on his head. Antonio was a pubescent King, guided by a regent Uncle until he turned of age. A combination of youth, early access to power and resources, and the crown itself made Antonio set in his ways. Convinced by courtiers and administrators alike that his word is law - and therefore the way forward. Swashbuckling and proud - Antonio appeared set to be a cad of a King.

But love struck, in the most precarious time; just months after he took on the crown. Elisa was not born with a silver spoon, a title, or a recognized education. Instead, she was a performer and an entertainer without a penny to her name. A most inappropriate choice. But Antonio loved her, the way only a first love can. And he married her, against the advice of counsel and his own family.

It was the first time since birth that Antonio felt the people's disapproval. However, he was convinced that time and tenure would change the people's tune. In time, he would be a great King and she a beloved Queen. But time wasn't on their side. On a diplomatic trip, Elisa's carriage disappeared, leaving a bevy of blood-soaked guards. Another loss.

When it rains, it also blooms; amidst his grief, Brazil's economy and enterprise flourished with Antonio's focus. Chile, longtime allies and partners, were coming up in their own economy when talks of a union began. Despite Antonio's protests, the courtiers convince him of the vitality of a union. And so, with heavy heart, he walks down the aisle for the second time in his life. It wasn't love, so there couldn't be loss.

But Oriana lost something within seconds of their marriage. She sacrificed a part of herself to keep him whole. And though it wasn't his loss, the grief was shared... And so the chasm between them grew, filled with the guilt and uncertainty left unsaid. Even as they welcome their sons into the world, it lingers. A tactful reminder - It was almost love, and in many ways, it is almost a loss.

Despite the weight of his personal affairs, Antonio knows the enviable vantage point Brazil is in after The Reckoning. They have their pick of the litter - who will fourish?

[ad_1] Writer at the East Bengal exhibition East Bengal Club has rediscovered its form in the ongoing Indian Super League (ISL) after a poor start. Their recent 4-2 victory over Punjab FC, overturning a 0-2 halftime deficit, has boosted their morale. However, this article focuses on something different: the exhibition of East Bengal’s artefacts at the Kolkata Centre for Culture as part of the AMI Arts Festival. This exhibition celebrates East Bengal’s 105th anniversary in 2025, which ends on Sunday, December 22. The exhibition features priceless artefacts and memorabilia spanning the club’s rich history. Among the highlights is a jersey from the 1925 season. It was the season when the first official Kolkata Derby was played, which East Bengal won 1-0 thanks to a goal by Nepal Chakraborty. Key Artifacts at the Exhibition: 1925, East Bengal Jersey: Worn by legendary captain Surya Chakraborty, presented by his son Sunil Chakraborty. 1925, European vs Indian Match Medal: Awarded after India’s 2-0 victory over an European team, with goals by Surya and Kumar. 1942, Calcutta League Trophy: Nagan Roy holding the glittering cup from East Bengal’s first league title win. 1945, IFA Shield Final Trophy: Man of the Match trophy awarded to captain Poritosh Chakraborty after defeating Mohun Bagan 1-0. 1948, Blazer: Belonging to founding member Shailesh Basu. 1948, East Bengal vs. China Olympic Team Medal: Commemorating a 2-0 victory, the first international win by an Indian club. 1950, India Team Blazer and Hat: Worn by P.B.A. Saley during the tours of East Asia. 1975, IFA Shield Final Boot: Match-worn boot of captain Ashok Lal Banerjee from the iconic 5-0 win over Mohun Bagan. 1985, Krishanu Dey’s Boots: Worn by the player known as the “Indian Maradona” in his final match. 1989, Durand Cup Medal: Personal medal of Krishanu Dey after captaining East Bengal to victory over Mohun Bagan. 2003, ASEAN Championship Coach’s Jersey: Worn by coach Subhash Bhowmick when East Bengal defeated Bec Tero Sasana 3-1. Other Artifacts: Memorabilia from tournaments like the Federation Cup, Durand Cup, and Coca-Cola Cup, along with signed jerseys, footballs, and cricket memorabilia. Krishanu Dey’s boot (left), Ashok Lal Banerjee’s boot Fan Engagement and Merchandise: The exhibition also features a merchandise store with jerseys, scarves, keyrings, and other collectables. Fan engagement programs like quiz competitions also offer opportunities to win exclusive East Bengal merchandise. Writer’s Note: As a family member of former East Bengal player Shri Sambhu Das Chowdhury, my grandfather, I have a personal connection to these artefacts. Our family treasures include many such memorabilia – Durand Cup runner’s memento, an IFA Shield winner’s medal, a club blazer from the 1960s, Elliot Shield medal, Rovers Cup medal and many more. Walking through this exhibition felt like reliving the rich history and legacy of East Bengal, an experience that will resonate with every football fan, regardless of their allegiance.

ISL matchweek 4 comes to an end

The final matchday of India's top division before the international break featured a double-header, with Jamshedpur FC facing East Bengal at the JRD Tata Sports Complex, while defending champions Mohun Bagan SG took on newly promoted Mohammedan Sporting Club in what could be considered a mini Kolkata derby.

Jamshedpur FC 2:0 East Bengal

The Red & Gold Brigade extended their losing streak to four matches in the Super League, struggling to find the back of the net despite doing much else correctly. After Carles Cuadrat's resignation, Bino George took over as interim manager, but the change has yet to yield positive results. Meanwhile, Khalid Jamil's Jamshedpur are enjoying their best-ever start to the league, accumulating nine points from four matches with three wins and one loss. Rei Tachikawa opened the scoring in the 21st minute with a long-range strike, a potential goal of the season contender. Despite dominating the game, East Bengal's efforts came to nothing. They came close to equalizing in the 64th minute when Cleiton Silva was fouled in the box by Javi Hernandez, earning a penalty. However, Albino Gomes, who was solid throughout the match, saved the penalty. East Bengal conceded again shortly after due to an own goal by Chungnunga Lal, marking a disastrous day for the 2024 Super Cup winners. On the other hand, Khalid Jamil continues to exceed expectations with Jamshedpur, a relatively modest squad, and only time will tell if he can lead them to glory.

Mohun Bagan SG 3:0 Mohammedan SC

Today's victory will provide Jose Molina with some much-needed relief. Over the past week, fans had been highly critical following a heavy defeat to Bengaluru FC, questioning his tactics and game-reading abilities as the defending champions struggled to find their form in the league. This match was crucial for Molina, as a loss could have resulted in his departure back to Spain. Mohun Bagan started strongly, with Jamie Maclaren scoring his debut ISL goal in his first start, capitalizing on a header from Greg Stewart's pass in the 8th minute. The attacking momentum continued, and by the 36th minute, Bagan extended their lead to 3-0, with Captain Bose and Stewart each scoring and assisting one another. At that point, the match was effectively decided. Bagan had additional opportunities throughout, but failed to capitalize, seemingly more focused on maintaining a clean sheet given their comfortable lead. The win concluded ISL matchweek 4, with Bagan moving up to 4th place in the league table, boasting two wins, one draw, and one loss.

+ 1 Wanted Connections Added!

KAITO TOSHIKO, our MACKENYU, from JAPAN, is looking for their BETROTHED - ABDUL SULTANA. This is a ROMANTIC/POLITICAL connection that looks like OZGE YAGIZ, ASLIHAN MALBORA, DAMLA MAKAR, MELIS SEZEN, BAHAR SAHIN, ANY FEMME TURKISH FC. They are 26-30 years old. Everything else you need to know is under the cut! Please DO (mainly to figure out details) contact the writer @flcralhaze. [ kaito's parents and her family had begun talks to betroth the two of them; however, the emperor and empress passed before anything could be finalized. either this muse herself or her family still desired the match and kept pushing for it but kaito, who at the time was focused on adjusting to his new role as emperor, was hesitant to agree to anything though kept the door open. over time (possibly while they were at lal qila and/or in the year after the reckoning) the pair grew closer. letters were frequently exchanged, an invitation was extended for her to spend some time in japan (possibly resulting in her being there during the war with china which would have bonded them closer if she offered her counsel or support), and eventually the betrothal was finalized before all the nations gathered together in ethiopia. now that they’ve been together for a while, feelings are starting to grow and kaito is extremely fond of her despite no direct declarations being made. but anyone who looks at them knows it’s only a matter of time before they fully admit their feelings. ]

12 Years Of Pall Of Gloom Lifted: East Bengal Win A Spine-chiller To Take Home Kalinga Super Cup

Kalinga Super Cup: East Bengal end 12 years of hurt, as they won their first silverware in as many years, defeating Odisha FC 3-2 after extra time at the Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar, in the final of the Kalinga Super Cup, on Sunday.In a nail-biting finish that saw fortunes swing from one end to another for 120 minutes, both teams were reduced to 10 men at one point in time, but they fought like warriors till the end. If East Bengal had the last laugh, then home side Odisha FC would long be remembered for their indomitable spirit to battle it out till the end. The last time the Red and Golds won a major title at the national level was back in the 2012 Federation Cup, when they beat Dempo SC 3-2 after extra time at the Kanchenjunga Stadium in Siliguri. It was a game of two halves, as Odisha took the lead through Diego Mauricio in the first half before Nandha Kumar’s strike and Saul Crespo’s penalty swung the pendulum East Bengal’s way. Odisha centre-back Mourtada Fall was also sent off for a second bookable offence, putting the advantage squarely at East Bengal’s feet. However, Odisha clawed back deep into injury time with an Ahmed Jahouh penalty before East Bengal midfielder Souvik Chakrabarti was given his marching orders in extra time. Cleiton Silva, however, made sure that none of that counted in the end, as he capitalised on a defensive error to score the winner. Despite trials and tribulations about football being a team game, one truth remains in the Kalinga Super Cup – you stop Ahmed Jahouh, and you stop Odisha FC. Souvik Chakrabarti, the man tasked with marking the Moroccan knew it, East Bengal head coach Carles Cuedrat knew it, the 10,121 fans at the Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar knew it. Odisha took the lead when Ahmed Jahouh sent in an accurate aerial ball from the half-way line into the East Bengal box, where Roy Krishna got into a duel with Borja Gonzalez. While the Odisha attacker lost the fight for the ball, his teammate Diego Mauricio was on hand to pounce on the ball and slam it home, minutes before the half-time break. East Bengal, however, were not to give in without a fight. Defender Lal Chungnunga and winger Mahesh Naorem, the two returnees from national team duty, replacing Mandar Rao Dessai and Javier Siverio, respectively. This gave a new dimension to the East Bengal attack, as the width that Mahesh provided the Red and Golds down the left allowed Nandha Kumar to drift into the centre from the right, a combination that worked wonders for them. Minutes after the restart, Mahesh was able to thread a ball through to Nandha behind the Odisha defence, as the latter rounded Odisha keeper Lalthuammawia Ralte and slotted home the equaliser. The momentum was firmly in East Bengal’s favour, and unlike their hosts, the Red and Golds capitalised on it. A penalty shout and 10 minutes later, East Bengal were finally rewarded for their second penalty appeal after Cleiton was brought down by Mourtada Fall, who was booked for his indiscretion. Saul Crespo sent Lalthuammawia the wrong way, putting the Kolkata giants on top. Odisha were to fall further, as their Senegalese centre-back received his second booking just five minutes after the previous one, this time for an elbow on Borja Gonzalez. Fall had to prematurely march off the field, leaving his side down to 10 men and Odisha’s best player, Jahouh, covering for him as a makeshift centre-back. Despite going down to 10 men, the Juggernauts left it till deep in injury time for Mauricio to break free behind the East Bengal defence, as he went tumbling to the earth at the slightest hint of a touch from an onrushing Gill. Jahouh, who was man-marked throughout the game, stepped up for his retribution. Unlike the rest of the game, he had ample time to see which way Gill would leap, and he lazily chipped it in through the centre. We would need another 30 minutes to decide this. As the two sides had to dig deep for the extra 30 minutes, Chakrabarti, who had been brilliant throughout the night, committed his second bookable offence, cancelling out his side’s numerical advantage. More importantly, in the context of the midfield battle, however, Jahouh was now unmarked, with more space and time. The Red and Golds showed more desire when it mattered, however. Six minutes into the second half of extra time, Cleiton pounced on a pass by Lalthuammawia to Narender Gahlot, as the latter was unsuccessful in controlling the ball. The East Bengal captain, although faced with an empty goal, did well to score from a tight angle. Read the full article

LOVED making this, in fact I kind of made two playlists again, whoops, one for when you just want about an hour of folky bops, one for when you have more like 100 minutes to spare...

Every Cell Charged with Stark Common Sense

A playlist for growing up wild in Northumbria and being ready to absolutely wreck any mercenary rock stars who show up to threaten your parents

I’m afraid you may gain the impression through my commentary that I don’t think common sense is quite the only guiding principle of small Somervilles...

The principles of a Pippa playlist: 1) she is a Weird Little Girl 2) she is a feral country child raised by folkies. Inevitably this means she is a fan of certain grim folk songs, but she's not really into murder ballads per se, though she objects to the latter aspect (ballad) more than the former (murder). If these silly maidens weren't so interested in falling in love with men they wouldn't get murdered, would they?!

So: 1) False Knight on the Road It may be a boy in the song, but I can well imagine Pippa playing at telling the Devil to go stuff himself by means of riddling answers and a mean fiddle riff. 2) Ivor Cutler One of her parents' records that small Pippa gloms onto, to their slight bemusement. An eccentric Scotsman singing eccentric songs and telling eccentric stories while playing harmonium - Pippa has a brief obsession with the harmonium because of it and insists on being told the story of 'Mary's Drawer' at bedtime (see Pippa's extended EP, below) 3) Lots of Kathryn Tickell on this!! The album is early '80s but it's A Sign that she released anything that early and can therefore be on the Pippa playlist - she's an accomplished fiddle player and Northumbrian pipes player and definitely an icon for Philippa. 4) Byker Hill Also loads of these boys on the playlist as a duo and with Steeleye Span/Fairport. Dave Swarbrick was one of the best and most well-known folk fiddlers of the revival and Marty Carty is folk royalty. This being a local song, of course Pippa loves it. 5) Le tueur de femmes She picks this up from one of the records Gideon brings back from his travels (technically this album seems to be from the '90s but I'm using Folk License for this, plus the LP might have been released earlier in France. The arrangement will certainly have been used by French musicians in the '70s). She doesn't understand the lyrics for a long time but knows there's a strange sinister quality to it, and probably at some point clicks that it's the same song as The Outlandish Knight on her parents' Nic Jones record. So it's the Bluebeard story where the 'final girl' drowns the serial killer and goes home to tell her pet parrot not to snitch on her for running off with, almost being killed by, and then herself killing a strange foreign knight. A Pippa vibe. 6) Twa Corbies More morbid folk! Ravens discussing the dead body of the knight they're about to feast on. With added Dave Swarbrick on the fiddle. 7) Lal & Norma Waterson More folk royalty! A happily G-rated take on the young girl sneaking off to join the armed forces - she doesn't end up having to marry anyone at the end, or being discovered because she gets pregnant by her captain. It's just that a lady falls in love with her and then she gets outed and sent home. But she did have fun playing the drum and travelling before that! 8) Fairport Convention - Come All Ye There are probably times in Contrary Teenage Philippa's life when she claims to be 'over' folk rock and to have 'outgrown' it. But put this track on and she won't be able to resist singing along. 9) This is what she claims to have outgrown folk rock for, so fair play to her - Anne Briggs is a gem of the folk revival, and probably reminds Pippa of her mum, though Kate's voice isn't as high. An early indication for Philippa that folk heroes *can* write their own songs and those can be just as good as the trad stuff! 10) More Kathryn Tickell on the pipes :) 11) Vin Garbutt A local folkie singing in local dialect! It's a bit further south than Pippa's country technically, but another miserable story turned into quite a bop. For anyone struggling with the words, it's about Oswald of Northumbria's baby son and the prophecy that he would die by drowning - his mother took him to the top of the hill Roseberry Topping in Teeside to prevent this, but baby Oswy went toddling off and tripped and drowned in a spring at the summit while she slept. She died of grief and was buried nearby, which is the folk etymology for the village name 'Osmotherly' (< Oswy's mother). 12) Pippa can't resist the fiddle part on this, though she thinks it's silly that Sovay gives the gold and watch back to her useless boyfriend, she'd have shot him and taken the ring too :P 13) Billy Don’t You Weep for Me So, I first heard this song when Jim Moray played it live and in his intro he said he remembered hearing it as a child and coming to the conclusion that he must Never Ever sit on a soldier's lap or else he'd end up dying a miserable death. I can see baby Pippa drawing similar conclusions and again getting quite into the song's savagery, but also spending hours practicing her fiddle because whatever he's *doing* with the guitar there she wants to be able to do with the fiddle. (This version is from a record released in the 2000s, but it was recorded live before Nic's accident and I'd bet there was a version on one of his early Topic albums. N.b. I want you to know that Nic Jones on Pippa playlists has an extra layer of ouch because he was badly injured in a road accident in the '80s and couldn't play afterwards, having been one of the most astonishingly brilliant folk musicians of the century. He is slowly, slowly returning to live shows now with his son playing the more complex parts while he does the chords he's able to, and he's an absolute sweetheart who's just happy to play for people again. But in the AU that's Christian's fate - Gideon isn't so lucky). 14) Blackleg MIner Speaking of savage, local songs, you don't get much more savage than this classic anti-scab song from County Durham. Pippa's certainly heard mum and dad sing this one, and in the '80s it has a new resonance. 15) The Lambton Worm An underappreciated part of the folk rock scene but certainly part of Kate and Gideon's record collection! And this is another local song, from Sunderland this time, about a dragon and a knight - I bet Gideon played this loads to baby Pippa and she adored it, but probably sympathised with the dragon despite Gideon warning her that it ate unwary children who stayed up late listening to mum and dad's jam sessions with friends when they were meant to be asleep! 16) Kate Bush - Violin ...do I need to explain this? Is it possible to explain this? The stirrings of baby Pippa's pop sensibilities. She can't be sniffy about Kate Bush because she's just so damned *weird* and earnest with it, and somehow gets to number one in the charts anyway!! 17) Shipbuilding This is one that isn't released until '82 and I think Philippa really latches onto it in the wake of Gideon's death (exact timeline still a bit up in the air). It feels like a song he'd really have appreciated, and with it she starts thinking politically about music in a new way as well. It's about working class communities and how the news of the Falklands War was bound to the promise of new work and economic revival, although at the cost of human lives, many of which would come from the same communities. Not sure Pippa ever feels strong enough to sing it or cover it herself until her work with activists in TRC-era (~1985) but it's a really important song for her. 18) Kathryn Tickell on the fiddle this time :) 19) Come on Eileen Sampling folk, adding in a three-person strings section, and releasing this unavoidable hit, Pippa can't really help but love Dexys, though she's drawn to the song very reluctantly and despairs every time it gets stuck in her head until she learns to just enjoy it.

There's an extended version of the Pippa playlist, on which you'll also find:

*Pentangle - Light Flight Another band from the folk rock revival, pop this in the same category as Fairport Convention - Come All Ye, above. *Billy Williams - When Father Papered the Parlour I was going to put Flanders & Swann on here, thinking Gideon and Kate would have been fans, but their Wikipedia page ended up annoying me too much (private school boys being smarmy ho ho ho) so I turned to music hall songs I remembered hearing on a cassette of 'children's favourite's from the 1950s' that I inexplicably had when growing up. I like to think Pippa would enjoy this too, but on the shorter playlist Ivor Cutler fills that eccentric role, and it took enough self-restraint not to just add a billion of his songs anyway. *Shirley Collins - Space Girl Just because it's fun!! Maybe something Kate sings and Pippa's like 'nooooo mum you're being embarrassing!' but she likes it really. The Imagined Village do an *excellent* modern version. *Arlo Guthrie - Motorcycle Song Also fun! Also a record Gideon has brought back from his travels. Gideon also rides a motorbike. And yes, Pippa knows all the words to Alice's Restaurant by the age of ten. *Johnny Cash - I Walk the Line (live at Folsom) Gideon did lots of charity work with prisoners and particularly had contacts in the US he worked with, so this is a favourite album in Flaw Valleys. *Planxty - Smeceno Horo The playlist needed some Planxty. Big boys of Irish folk(/rock) with really wide-ranging interests. I saw this Bulgarian tune and had to put it on the Pippa album because it's a really cheerful load of noise and I think Gideon is in the habit of travelling for his tunes a lot, so brings stuff like this back and listens to Planxty to check what they've found, too. It gives Pippa a really good basis for jamming with people at St Mary's, Adam will certainly have some similar influences. *Tom Lehrer - The Elements Another from Gideon's travels. Pippa is a bit of a swot at school, but no one else can understand how learning the lyrics to this song is easier than just learning what they're meant to learn for class. She doesn't care, she thinks it's a bop (though she's a bit suspicious of him for the whole 'poisoning pigeons' thing). *Ivor Cutler Trio - Mary's Drawer A Somerville vibe to this whole thing, really. *Ian Campbell Folk Group - Poor Old Horse A sea shanty about debt in coastal communities and the 'dead horse tradition'. *Fairport Convention - Si Tu Dois Partir File under: folk rock Pippa can't help but love. A lovely fiddle part, plus a good way to practice her schoolgirl French. *Lindisfarne - Fog on the Tyne THE local bop, if you will.
