Oh, how I wish I did have the power of witchcraft; I promise I would cast a spell on you. If I could, I’d conjure up all your forgotten dreams - and make them each come true. I’d enchant you into staying a thousand years here, with me - and for every hour of every day of every year, you’d need me. You must need me, somehow I must make you need me…
It is not permitted Caesar to need anyone too much -
Only me…
-for then he would no longer be Caesar.
These long years - I’ve hated them so, and everyone and everything that kept us apart -I quite forgot how long they must have been for you, too. Forgive me, please…
You will be pleased to know. During all this time - even away from you - the process of bewitchment has gone on. It is now complete. I need you. I need you desperately…

In addition to his Greek name and nicknames, Caesarion also had a full set of royal names in the Egyptian language:
- Iwapanetjer entynehem
- Setepenptah
- Irmaatenre
- Sekhemankhamun
These are usually translated as:
- “Heir of the God who saves”
- “Chosen of Ptah”
- “Carrying out the rule of Ra” or “Sun of Righteousness”
- “Living Image of Amun”
Sharp pains because too much pasta, off to bed! Good night!

Michele Caragher
Embroidered details in Game of Thrones
‘Michele Carragher is a London-based Hand Embroiderer and Illustrator who has been working in costume on film and television productions for over 15 years. She studied Fashion Design at The London College of Fashion, where the course incorporated design, pattern cutting, garment construction, embroidery, millinery and illustration. At the same time she attended a three year evening course in Saddlery at Cordwainers College learning skills in leatherwork.
After leaving college Michele worked in Textile Conservation, repairing and restoring historical textiles for private collectors and museums, specialising in hand embroidery. She then moved into a career in costume for film and television, initially working as a Costume Assistant/Maker on productions such as the BBC’s Our Mutual Friend, ITV’s David Copperfield and Mansfield Park. She soon gravitated towards the decoration and embellishment of costumes, using skills in hand embroidery and surface decoration, taking inspiration from the many historical textiles she had encountered working as a Textile Conservator.
The first production that saw her undertake the role of a Principal Costume Embroiderer was for HBO’s 2005 Emmy Costume award-winning production of Elizabeth 1. Her most recent work has been on HBO’s 2012 Costume award-winning television series Game of Thrones, working on all three seasons.
As a Costume Embroiderer Michele specialises in hand embroidery and surface embellishment, using traditional hand embroidery techniques, smocking, beading and surface decoration. She works directly onto the completed garment or starts with motifs and textures on silk crepeline/organza, which are applied to the costume and then worked into once on the actual garment. She also works on existing machine embroidery designs that are not too dense, adding some hand stitching and beading to give a more authentic, hand-finished look.
Michele finds hand embroidery has more flexibility and diversity than that of embroidery created by machine, as there is a greater variety of thread choice and colours to use. It is also possible to work more easily on garments that are already constructed. However, machine embroidery in combination with hand work can be very useful when completing many repeats by creating light outlines or a less dense machine stitch, work can then be completed by hand and again can be carried out on a finished garment.
Michele is a highly creative Costume Embroiderer, producing original designs as well as working closely to a costume designer’s brief to create their desired look.’

On the set of Merlin 28.06.2012
“I’ll never forget the day Marilyn and I were walking around New York City, just having a stroll on a nice day. She loved New York because no one bothered her there like they did in Hollywood, she could put on her plain-jane clothes and no one would notice her. She loved that. So as we we’re walking down Broadway, she turns to me and says ‘Do you want to see me become her?’ I didn’t know what she meant but I just said ‘Yes’- and then I saw it. I don’t know how to explain what she did because it was so very subtle, but she turned something on within herself that was almost like magic. And suddenly cars were slowing and people were turning their heads and stopping to stare. They were recognizing that this was Marilyn Monroe as if she pulled off a mask or something, even though a second ago nobody noticed her. I had never seen anything like it before.” - Amy Greene, wife of Marilyn’s personal photographer Milton Greene
One of my favorite stories about celebrity.

novangla said: ugh, THIS. I’m American so it’s a wreck. All the stores have gone “vanity sizing” which means a 6 is what used to be an 8 or a 10. Problem is you can’t get below a 0. Except when they make 00, but they don’t always. And belts are the worst!
I’m living in America right now so I know exactly what you’re talking about. It’s awful. Every place I try to get cheap clothing at won’t really sell anything below an American 6, and it’s relatively expensive for a uni student to do when their money is limited and stuff like that. I feel for ya :/
