Is Tripoint Pittsburgh? Relistening to SK series for the umpteenth time and remembered staying in a hotel across from Three Rivers Stadium. Also a question came up on Facebook. Barr and Remo watched Dag unbeguile but can they also do it?

In the rough & ready sort of way I'm taking inspiration from Midwestern American rather than the bog-standard European models for fantasy worlds, yep, Pittsburgh. (My parents' hometown, btw.)
Barr and Remo can probably learn how to do unbeguiling much as they learn other groundwork, as their skills and strength grow. Some Lakewalkers will doubtless be better or worse at it than others, through innate capacity or personal psychology.

Lois McMaster Bujold:
Reading the Vorkosigan Saga inspired me to pick up drawing after a 10-year hiatus and draw some fanart, of which there's a sad dearth. What fanart I saw puts the Barrayaran women in Victorian/Edwardian-style clothing, while I've always imagined them in 1930-early 1960s clothing (boleros, calf-length skirts, skirt and blouse combos). Am I right and did you have any other fashion inspo I should take into consideration?
