Watching the face of someone you care about light up because they received a letter from a newfound friend is honestly one of the best feelings I've ever experienced.

You deserve this slice of happiness. Enjoy it.

Relationship Note on Torian

Oooohhhh! Who lives in a green apple under the sea? TOE-REE-AN!

Such is the life, you know? To live it as it is. Could you imagine, yes, how many grey hairs he has from me? Oh yes. Full pockets and grey hairs. Such is the life, oh yes. Certainly.

But none might find a better to care for his kin, no, I doubt it, quite, very much so.

I have been thinking about change lately. A lot has changed since I came to Arx, some of which I planned for and sought to achieve and quite a lot that I had no idea would occur and never hoped to experience. Yet I lived through it all just the same, and I am who I have become because of it. The road is not nearly so flat as to allow us to perceive what is just beyond the horizon, and I dare not believe the one upon which I walk is anything other than long.

There is a change that weighs heavily on my mind, one which may need to come about through my hand and yet it is not something I wish to make so. Or at least it is not something I do not currently wish to make so. If Limerance and Lagoma remain silent, I must look to Jayus for inspiration.

Of one thing I am certain: I shall remain ever undaunted, no matter what I may face in future. There is no challenge, no trial, and no hardship that will ever keep me down for long.

Not everything lost has to stay that way. How much heartache can be saved, hearing that in the right moment?

Let the record show that on this day, I finally picked up all the clothing littering my room.

Silence. It is an accomplishment.

I have scrap leather and linen for days.

Relationship Note on Arik

At The Spirits, my liege lord kindly graced us with one of his famous songs, and I was lucky enough to be there to scribe it down for posterity's sake.

Found her in the mountain, wouldn't stop yapping
I told the girl to hush because her Lord was napping
She told me I snored and I was like to die that day
I said hush woman don't you know I give you pay

Stubborn as the north wind this one had been
She hushed up but followed me around like my own twin
I finally cracked I asked her what is it?
She shook her head, no speaking permitted!

Back then she was young as a pup looked like a boy
So I gave her an order, tell me a good story
If you do I'll give you a fine position
Little did I know she took it as a commission!

That's how I met her, my best retainer
Now all of Arx nobility wants to gain her
Well she's mine till I die and it's not taken once
you lot will have to wait your turn after I'm... gonce? [done?]

I had a look at those fancy panties down there at DIE. They're pretty and all, but it just seems like something to get in the way of the main event. I'm sure someone will tell me some horseshit about wrapping yourself up like a present for that special someone, but when I think the best wrapping is the sort of dress that one can't help but imagine tear off of you, rather than fragile lingerie. Call me crazy.

Gods, is this why I keep putting ribbons in my dress designs?

N-never let it be said that, a man so fancy, so grinning, so fine - could not stand and breathe fire! Drink Elixirs! Like mine. Oh yes. Hahahaaaaaa! Peaches, my man, it's the stuff of gods!

...Once...there was a pigeon, covered in down, she thought she was a - a goose! Who deserved her own crown! She honked, and she hissed, and daaaaammmmn was she pissed! For pigeons cannot swim, and sh-she did quickly drown...hee.

M-my words of wisdom for this-is day: The Li-lies we tell ourselves are, far more dire than those we tell e-eachother. Mhm. Write that do- oh you are. Well, good. Now. Lemme see? I faded out halfway through that one...oh good! Why are you still writing? Oh. I'm still talking. Well. Yes. Absolutely, of course, so. Once upon a time, a dazzling pr-princess of sorts was stuck amongst the chains and webs of a great spider, mhm, yes. But, and yes. But. There's this thing, you know? A tabby cat with silver and gold eyes. Yeah. So this cat walks up to this Great Spider and is all like, "Eyooo! Chu doin' with this fine thing?"

Spider goes, "Begone foul puss! I want none of your tricks! This is my capture! To do with as I like!"

Know what, what that big ass spider did then. Next. Yeah? Gloated. Mhm. Spiders are talkative cunts, you know?

"She will be my thing, forever! This glittering thing, I shall eat her light!"

An-and that drunk tabby - no, yes. Cats absolutely get drunk, scholar man, yes. I have seen it - not my doing, no. But I've seen it. Mhm. So this tabby goes, "Oh really? I don't see your web. Come, shiny thing, don't you see? There is no web." And maaaaan, just like that, that girl opened her eyes and saw the spider was just a lie she was telling herself.

...What ending? Oh, I dunno, I think the tabby ate a mouse or something. Or another pussy. You know? Hee.

Relationship Note on Raja

It seems my timing bested that of a suggestion wherein I was mentioned, as directed to by the scholars - how droll! And how very ~lucky~ for me that I have already thought of such things!

I am so very happy that my dear friend enjoys and approves of her new coat. It will look utterly spectacular on her.

My husband and I are parting, and it is with sorrow I see him go, but I am glad for the opportunities he is getting to pursue. While we are no longer romantically attached, and no longer husband and wife, I still care for him, and I will ensure that he is still part of Cala Lily's life. When she comes of an age, if her father and the head of his house are still amenable, she will choose whether she will join him among the nobility. But until then, I will make sure that she wants for nothing.

An unexpected blessing in the guise of uncertain smiles, the freshness of budding crocus in the snow. I can't tell you, scholar, how strange it is, how precious and delightful and incredibly breathtaking. Raymesin has grumbled about my way with words, but I can't help it; I am moved sometimes and my little drawings aren't enough to convey it all. Words escape me too, I know what I feel about the people in my life... the words don't always convey what I want them too.

But. It is. Precious and new and shared. Some of the uncertainty is mine; I'm not sure where to go with it, so I'm clinging like a raft on a river, hoping the falls are just exciting and the journey enlightening. Who knows where this takes us? Maybe the Queen does. She seems to have a hand in everything I do these days.

Several days ago, I wrote about my feelings of frustration. In return, there were a number of messages written to me privately, inquiring as to my state and offering to help. I'm humbled to be associated with such caring people, it truly is a silver lining in a time of my life that's proving to be rather difficult.

Thank you.

Relationship Note on Zoey

First and foremost in my mind on returning to Arx was to seek forgiveness from my daughter Zoey, for the undeserving cold treatment and distance I had imposed between us. I am blessed with the good fortune of being a grandfather. Now I aspire to demonstrate a grandfather's wisdom. Beginning with respect for my daughter's choices and her independence. Thank you for welcoming me back into your life, Zoey.
