Oof, I'm glad it was just a momentary server blip at Squidge. I don't want the archive offline just after I've been poking people to upload. *g*
There was a second when I saw they foils where I was like, "but the metallurgy involved in... ah fuck it, never mind, look! Shiny!
Hee! Yeah. I like what maenad says below, too, that Iolaus falls face first into a Dumas novel. And it fits him, much more than it would fit Hercules.
Where do you fall in the Iolaus did/did not tell Hercules after the second one debate?
You mean after Long Live The King, right? I think he probably did tell Herc at some point. At the end of King For A Day, he doesn't tell Hercules anything either in the episode, but by the beginning of Long Live The King Hercules clearly knows all about the situation. And I think Hercules could tell that there was more to the story after Long Live The King - they're very understated about it all, very "How was Niobe?" "Very...royal," and I tend to read Hercules' response as "Okay, why don't you take your vest off and help me dig this ditch, I'll get the story out of you over some ale later."
I really want a story where Hercules goes back with Iolaus to Attica, just to see his reaction when everyone tries to hand Iolaus the kingdom again. And so Niobe can have an awkward meeting with the guy who has so much of Iolaus' heart.
