Question: Cu Roi (Cu Rui, Cu Raoi) mac Daire is a king of Munster in the Ulster Cycle of Irish mythology. He is usually portrayed as a warrior with superhuman abilities and a master of disguise possessed of magical powers.

Cu Roi further appears in the episode known as "The Trance of Amairgin", variants of which appear in Recension I and II of the Tain bo Cuailnge.  The episode appears as Aislinge n-Aimirgin ("The trance of Amairgin") in Recension I of the Tain. Having followed news of Cu Chulainn's sustained success in single-handedly opposing the Connacht army, Cu Roi once again appears on the scene, this time to fight Cu Chulainn directly. However, on finding Cu Chulainn weak from the injuries which Ferdiad had recently inflicted on him, he refused to carry out his original plan. Instead he faces the giant warrior poet Amairgin, who in a trance is hurling stones at the Connacht army in Tailtiu, with devastating effects. Cu Roi attacks him in kind and their stones meet in the air. They pause when on Cu Roi's request, Amairgen allows the cattle to go past Tailtiu, but seeing as the passage had become difficult, Cu Roi agrees to withdraw from the contest altogether.  The episode in the Book of Leinster (Recension II), called Imthusa Chon Rui meic Daire (header) or Oislige Amargin (text), offers by and large the same story, but adds more explicit detail, notably on the point of Cu Roi's sense of honour in his encounters with Cu Chulainn and Amairgin. First, Cu Roi explains his refusal to fight Cu Chulainn not only by pointing out the inequality between a physically healthy and an injured warrior, but also by saying that a victory would not be his, seeing as it was Fer Diad who had laid low his opponent. Second, the conclusion of Cu Roi's fight with Amairgin is told from a perspective which highlights the role of honour in his motives. Medb insisted "[b]y the truth of your [Cu Roi's] valour" ([a]r fir do gascid fritt) that he should abandon the competition, obstructive as it proved to be to the progress of the expedition. Cu Roi, however, was determined to persist "till the day of doom" (co brunni bratha) unless Amairgin agreed to stop. (When the matter was settled and Cu Roi returned to his country, Amairgin resumed his attacks on the invading army, explaining that his agreement was with Cu Roi only.)

Question: Howard Phillips Lovecraft (August 20, 1890 - March 15, 1937) was an American writer who achieved posthumous fame through his influential works of horror fiction. He was virtually unknown and published only in pulp magazines before he died in poverty, but he is now regarded as one of the most significant 20th-century authors in his genre. Lovecraft was born in Providence, Rhode Island, where he spent most of his life. Among his most celebrated tales are The Rats in the Walls, The Call of Cthulhu, At the Mountains of Madness, The Shadow over Innsmouth, and The Shadow Out of Time, all canonical to the Cthulhu Mythos.

Lovecraft's aunts disapproved of this relationship with Sonia. Lovecraft and Greene married on March 3, 1924, and relocated to her Brooklyn apartment at 793 Flatbush Avenue; she thought he needed to get out of Providence in order to flourish and was willing to support him financially. Greene, who had been married before, later said Lovecraft had performed satisfactorily as a lover, though she had to take the initiative in all aspects of the relationship. She attributed Lovecraft's passive nature to a stultifying upbringing by his mother. Lovecraft's weight increased to 90 kg (200 lb) on his wife's home cooking.  He was enthralled by New York, and, in what was informally dubbed the Kalem Club, he acquired a group of encouraging intellectual and literary friends who urged him to submit stories to Weird Tales; editor Edwin Baird accepted many otherworldly 'Dream Cycle' Lovecraft stories for the ailing publication, though they were heavily criticized by a section of the readership. Established informally some years before Lovecraft arrived in New York, the core Kalem Club members were boys' adventure novelist Henry Everett McNeil; the lawyer and anarchist writer James Ferdinand Morton, Jr.; and the poet Reinhardt Kleiner.  On New Year's Day of 1925, Sonia moved to Cleveland for a job opportunity, and Lovecraft left Flatbush for a small first-floor apartment on 169 Clinton Street "at the edge of Red Hook"--a location which came to discomfort him greatly. Later that year the Kalem Club's four regular attendees were joined by Lovecraft along with his protege Frank Belknap Long, bookseller George Willard Kirk, and Lovecraft's close friend Samuel Loveman. Loveman was Jewish, but was unaware of Lovecraft's nativist attitudes. Conversely, it has been suggested that Lovecraft, who disliked mention of sexual matters, was unaware that Loveman and some of his other friends were homosexual.
