Well scholar, my sister went home again for a bit. I say a bit, because I really have no idea how long she will be gone this time. I have no doubt Stormheart needs her more right now. Home is important you know. I know I miss and I know the ocean calls to her. She needs adventure just as much as me. In different ways, except scholar. I have responsibility now!

Relationship Note on Savio
Thoughts of ...love...
I love you when you're with me
And I miss you when you're far
Nothing will ever take me from you
There is no night without stars
I worship you completely
And this brilliant thing that's ours
I will be yours always
There is no night without stars
I will always keep you safe
In my devotion and my arms
I will live and die for you
There is no night without stars.
-- Written by Savio Pontelaeus
Here are words that resonate through the distances,
Where I have been has lead me to know what my existence is,
All made greater when one fashions a purpose of love
But further still, when one becomes the other's beloved...

Barf still dislikes socks. He'll let me put them on him without a fuss, but then he refuses to walk anywhere. You wouldn't think someone who smells like a swamp skunk would cling to their dignity so firmly. Oh well. He still likes his spiked collar and I know that if I replaced his ratty old blanket, he'd never forgive me.
Yes, my social life is very active, thank you. I'm doing very important stuff and things, all the time. Why just yesterday, I had tea with Marigold.

I adore festivals!
The beer festival is upon us. I think everyone could use a pleasant distraction that involves good drinks, good foods and some games.
Do you think it is a problem scholar, that I am holding a beer festival and I do not like beer?
Thank goodness for Master Venturo.

While my hiatus prevented holding the bi-monthly Blackshore luncheons I had endeavored to make a thing, and the creation and proliferation of the collectible coins I had planned to make the idea popular, I have since endeavored to start trying to schedule them more frequently. If anyone would like to get involved and have their own house - or, I suppose some idea of personal significance - minted on some coins for people to hoard, please feel free to leave messages at The Intrepid.

Note to self, dear scholar - a little less drinking, and a little less attention paid to one's companions for the evening when throwing darts.
Fortunately, not much was hurt aside from my pride (only slightly) and my purse (just a tic more than the pride)...

Relationship Note on Lailah
I invited Lady Lailah to take tea with me this week, and find her to have a keen mind and penchant for asking probing questions. Her directness and mode of speech did at one point leave me needing to pick my jaw up from the floor but I think I've found a friend in her.
We finished the last jar of summer fruit preserves that were so carefully prepared for the household last year. It's been such a favourite with everyone that I'll have to ask Claudette if she can make double quantities this coming year.

Relationship Note on Kenjay
It was amazing to see my Uncle Kenjay fight for the first time, and a true honor knowing it was to Champion my side. I never doubted his performance would be any less than stunning. Today I am very grateful for family support, and glad he made his way back to us.

Whisper Apollo is a clever force to be reckoned with! He emerged victorious from our Redrain guessing games evening, nearly matched by Marquessa Lianne. I hope we all had a good, needed laugh that night. My thanks to everyone who participated.

I'm so grateful to be given some additional responsibility with the Bard's College and hope that I live up to my duties there! It did feel like this last week was simply a blur. So much to do with lessons and teaching and practice and planning.

Wise general, why should you not seek a throne to sit on?
The best of nobles have never been by preference rulers of the rich. When a noble undertakes to be the protector of the poor, their throne becomes a refuge for suffering. Yet the same become the homes for thriving merchants and commoners, an earnest endeavor that improves the condition of the people. To have refused access to the throne to the complaints of these would not have been the right course to pursue. A true noble does not decline the invitation of a thrall to dine on water and bread.
So it is that you too should never refuse the pleas of the most novice of soldiers to dine.

I thought the scones we shared with the fruit and the tea were pretty good too. And without the weird taste of cider.

Nothing is so capable of overturning a good intention as to show distrust of it; to be suspected for an enemy is often sufficient to make a person become one.

You know what gets really annoying? It's the fact everything has to be one big damned puzzle. I want to learn about something and all I get is a nibble. A small piece of a puzzle with hundreds of other pieces to discover. However, when your puzzle starts to come together and you are beginning to see a bigger picture, then you get a sense of accomplishment. I do enjoy this feeling. It is just very frustrating to get there.

The conversation with others has made me realize since I am back in the city for a good bit, perhaps it is time to start military socials once more so we can all understand the strengths and weaknesses of our unique units, and tactics. When we can move about the city and not need to swim through snow. I cannot even get out of Thrax estate.

I do love my wife. I am thinking about sculpting two hundred roses from snow and put them in her office in East Light. It would be an act of devotion, yes?
