- Jason says wistfully "Wish I could have been there, since I've written and
- performed quite a few SCAdian filksongs." There's a brief shimmer as the
- Light of Reality flicks over at Jason. He's wearing a great-kilt, a blue
- elizibethan jacket, a white shirt with a full ruff collar, and a floppy
- flat hat with a white ostrich plume. "This is what I wore last night to the
- Barony of Adiantum's Midwinter's Feast in the SCA Kingdom of An Tir. Had a
- nice time, but didn't perform for a change." The LoR fades, and Jason is
- back in his usual black Greek fisherman's hat and leather jacket, with
- faded blue jeans.

- Jason chuckles at his table. "That's OK Michael, I don't mind at all if it
- gets sung far and wide, so long as credit is given where it is due, if
- someone asks who wrote it. The only thing that might annoy me would be if
- someone performed it and tried to take credit for writing it themselves.
- And I'm sure you didn't do that."
