Moiraine/Morgase

[Marie 73]

Tonight while I was listening to Justin Timberlake, a thought occurred to me: Would Moiraine and Morgase get along? First there is their passive (a little more than passive on Morgase's part) prejudice against the other's nationality. And then there is Thom. I mean, Thom and Bryne even had awkward tense moment even though both were dumped. Well ok, Thom's dumping is a little more dramatic but still. And Morgase still seems a touch bitter over the whole thing. And as much as she tries Moiraine is human and who wants to be around their man's former trollop? Or even more specifically that trollop's daughter 'cause you know Elayne is going to make Thom her adoptive father if given half a chance.

I don't think they'd get along. There's Thom, but more than that I just don't think their personalities would mesh, let alone their feelings about each other's countries.

 

Elayne is like mini-Moiraine in some ways, even though she's Morgase's daughter. Moiraine/Morgase are not too much alike. I actually think Morgase is more prudish than Moiraine, and while Moiraine is stubborn too she tends to be a little more rational (or pragmatic at least). Of course, I am biased towards Mo. :>

I am quoting this so Kaitlin cannot go back and edit out calling Elayne mini-Moiraine and thus admitting to being a mini-Elayne fan.

 

I'd say Morgase and Moiraine are both irrational, Moiraine just hides it better. I can never forgive her running away from being queen. Also, they both like(d) that old bard so really...how sane are either of them.

[Kaitlin 22]

Elayne can DIAF!

[Vertex 23]

Me thinks they are both grown up enough to treat each other with respect and if they sense they won't get along, then they won't get close enough to make that a problem. I can't imagine either of them going looking for trouble for fun...ok, that's a lie. Maybe they'd fight like sisters.

[Marie 73]

They are kind of like Moiraine/Nynaeve only Morgase is more fiery. I wonder why.

[Ekho 52]

I don't think they would get on, not really because of Thom but more because Morgase tries to play the great game, whereas I get the idea Moiraine would just be like "pfft amateur"

[Marie 73]

I do think any issues will be mostly Morgase induced. Moiraine does seem to be a cool cucumber in such situations. I want them to meet up now.

[Ekho 52]

Someone could always throw Morgase through that other doorway...maybe it would be some incentive for Thom and Mat to hurry up with their rescue mission

[Kaitlin 22]

I thought you said "show up through that doorway" at first, as in Morgase wanders into Finnland and rescues Moiraine while Mat is still farting around and Thom is waiting for him to hurry up.

 

Morgase probably would start things. Which one of them has the bigger temper? Morgase gets angry easily and holds grudges, while Moiraine is much more controlled.

I somehow think that would have the opposite effect.

Why, what did he say?

[Sam 19]

i would also like to know what JT said.
