Since Xena and Gabrielle started living together, it has been a little difficult what with all the traveling, only one, then two horses. Wouldn't it be nice if they could have some modern conveniences? Remember this is Ancient Greece, no electricity, no engines, limited means of transport, etc. What household, personal, personal hygiene, etc. items would you like for them to have…….

 Jackie 
Alarm clocks (If The Shoe Fits...) Razors and shaving foam - it must be a b*tch for Xena and Gabrielle to shave their armpits with the Chakram...
Toothpaste and toothbrush, definitely. Marshmallows and hot cocoa for those dark winter nights.

Even when they fought battles, traveled miles in the hot sun and went days without a bath and they almost never changed clothes.  Not even one little bottle of deodorant?  Baby Wipes? Wet paper towel? Chanel #5?

Marshmallows and hot cocoa for those dark winter nights. Very good idea, but lets go the whole nine yards. Marshmallows, Hersey Bars and Graham crackers......Smores!!!!!

However; if the objects of the smell at hand are looking good enough, forget the charm, lust knows no bounds." Just kidding about Confucius. He didn't say that. Well, I don't think he did. On the other hand, did he meet Xena and Gabrielle when they were in Chin?

Deodorant would probably be a major, I mean Xena obviously enjoyed her baths but they did lead very active lives. Then again Xena was pretty inventive so
I'm sure she would come up with something, it's possible they rubbed each other with mint or herbs or...
... I'm sorry what was I talking about? |

Dut I do think Xena would appreciate a good anti-perspirant/deodorant. Remiember at the beginning of A Tale of Two Muses? Just as Gabrielle was talking about the brutality of the desert heat (or something like that), Xena smelled her underarm?
And for Gabrielle - nice ball-point pens with comfort grips. I'm sure they'd be more convenient to use then her quill and ink.

She did also sniff said armpit and declare she loved the smell of warrior sweat in the morning in "The Furies"... but then again she was going a bit
off her nut at the time...

Boxer shorts and t-shirts (Xena Con, Lucy, Renee, Argo, Xena, Gabrielle pictures optional) These are really needed because on laundry day they needed something
to wear besides the shifts that they sleep in. They needed to wash those too. Every wonder just how Xena actually cleaned her leathers? And that red outfit of
Gabrielle's? Shouldn't that be dry cleaned?
Little packages of flat sheets of toilet paper. So much better than leaves and pieces of scrolls. Sunglasses |

dark hunter silver wrote: silver.....you sure got that one right. Actually, you could classify them as homeless people. Neither ever seemed to have a job, much less a regular long lasting one with benefits and an eye to the future. No pension plan and gods forbid they should have an insurance plan. If anyone ever needed a health insurance plan, those two did. I don't even want to talk about life insurance. If they had had life insurance plans, can you imagine what the poor adjuster would have had to go through? I'll bet their policies would have riders that no benefits would be paid unless the decedent stayed dead a minimum of two years. Xena was totally unreliable as a breadwinner and Gabrielle did indeed blow the budget. That donkey incident for example, that was their last dinar, she had absolutely no use for a donkey and then what does she do....give it away to total strangers. So irresponsible. And look how the kids turned out....one demonic and the other the Bitch of Rome. It just goes to show. |
