    TIF is a she, by the way.

    The portrait on the dichalkon is unusually good. At that size, sometimes the busts don't look like the emperors they depict at all. Nice find.

    Trust me, we were all surprised when an intelligent, vivacious woman chose to hang out with us grumpy old nerds, but evidently she isn't too particular about the company she keeps.

    Hmm. I'd better review my Vcoins wish list and buy any Hadrians before Oki gets them all! :D

    Oki-- do you have any coins of Antinous? One of these days I'm going to shoot for one. They are always expensive though.

    Romy promised some nice sushi but ate it all himself. His manners were atrocious and his breath foul. This was a goodbye kiss. I was only pretending to enjoy it... no need to hurt his feelings. I have since upped my dating standards.
