[SPEC] Wide awake and physical

Just had a random thought that I'm tossing out...

We've already mentioned that voodoo has to do with loa -- spirits. Spirits don't have bodies. The countdown on the ilovebees main page is to 'wide awake and /physical/'. The spirit wakes and becomes corporeal. It has a body.

In the story, the Widow restores the Queen. She wakes and now her body is whole. Also, as written, the last line is "The day will break and the sun will rise when the Queen returns to rule, and further let it be known that retribution on any who hinder the return of the Queen will be swift and terrible." Which certainly could be taken as a countdown to watch out for, since Queenie is gonna get medieval on someone's ass if they get in the way.

Connection, perhaps?

(Edit: And of course, we can't forget the Sleeping Princess either. Maybe she's the one that will wake?)

Random tidbit. Useful?

Googling "voodoo queen widow" yields this tidbit:

Marie Laveau
also known as "Widow Paris" was one of New Orleans' "voodoo queens"

I've been to her tomb. I have pictures.
