And there was much rejoicing

OK. This just came up over at Look_Sharpe. I laughed 'til I cried.

I'd try it, if I wasn't so sure I'd be down for the count within 10 minutes. (I'm such a cheap drunk.)

The (slightly Harper-centric) Sharpe Drinking Game

Some of my favorites:

If Sharpe "strikes a pose" drink once.
If his arse looks particularly good while he strikes the pose, drink twice.

Drink when you see the Seven Barrelled Rifle of Manliness.
Two drinks if Harper shoots someone with it.
Three drinks if someone tries to take it away from Harper.
Four drinks when he gets it back.


Whenever someone says "Damn your impudence, sir," take a shot. Try yelling it at the next person who annoys you. Points for excess spit.

If you really feel like getting drunk, drink every time Harper says "so it is". Imagine you have a burly Irish boyfriend.

Dammit. Have to stop, or I'll just be putting the whole darn thing up... "(Lord Keily, I'm looking in your direction.)" *snortle*

*snickers and goes off to start doing real work*
