Relationship Note on Derovai
I don’t think it’s a question of whether I could be getting married again, it’s whether I should be getting married again. The future’s a big unknown for me. I don’t know where I’m going and where I’ll end up. I have many things I want to do, and a lot of paths open to me right now… and I’m just not sure which one I’ll take. But whichever one it is, it involves a Legendary Gala.
I'll be seeking to fill out the planning committee roles soon.

I attended a most lovely fashion show today, organized by the eminent merchant and friend to the House Rook Grayward, with Mistress Aurora supplying the outfits and a model by the name of Yasmine showing them off. The whole thing was quite wonderful, and has certainly inspired me that the Whisper House ought consider similar showings. Besides, I've always futzed around with fashion as a second career, what with the shop and all, though perhaps design would be more my forte? Things to consider!

Mirrors: not cruel, only exactly what it is. You look into one and realize that what you see is everything you are. Uncanny, the way a mirror can tell the truth. You accept this -- you work on changing -- or you stop looking into mirrors.

While I returned safe and sound wise the Carlotta, I seem to have got into a bad batch of hardtack or something and am laid up for a few days. Communication will be limited to messengers while I recuperate. Believe me, it’s better this way.
Please don’t worry about me, I have nearly every Mercy in Arx on my case.

Today, I hung my pack back on the hook by the door and laid my pillow on back on the bed. I think tonight will be the first night in a long while that I will find peace when I sleep.
Forget what I said before, Scholar. It feels damn good to be home.

Relationship Note on Reigna
"[...] able to have a difference of opinion and discuss that without the conversation dissolving into a tense, defensive sort of conflict."
I seem to recall we had a conversation like that once, Countess. I'm open to having another when you are. By the way, happy upcoming birthday. At least you had the good sense to choose the only proper date of the year on which one should have a birthday, and so share it with me.

It's time. And when I say that this gala is going to be like nothing you've ever seen before, and bigger than any I have ever hosted, it is not an exaggeration.

Does the dream end now?
Was this all in vain?
I am struggling to understand this, teacher.
I cannot hear the inner voice, the one you told me cultivate, over the pain in my head, in my heart.

Every time I start to put down my thoughts I hear your voice in my head, answering.
I know it's yours because I'm irritated and the answers aren't real answers.
I can hardly finish a sentence. This is achieving nothing.
I don't know if it is a normal part of the grieving process but I'm furious with you. Absolutely furious. I can hear your responses to that too, something about death and permanence and the spark of mortality.
Furious.

Relationship Note on Belladonna
I had a chance to speak with Duchess Belladonna Pravus recently, and all in all it was a very eye-opening experience. I saw that there was more to the woman than the legend that precedes her. We also had the beginnings of a very intriguing conversation. It is not one I haven't had before, the topic being the ennoblement of commoners and how that functions in society, specifically as how it relates to nobles marrying commoners and thereby ennobling them.
I am sure anyone that follows my whites knows exactly where I stand on this issue. So the surprising part was not that we disagreed, but rather that we were both able to disagree without the conversation turning into a tense argument. We both expressed that for the first time in a long time we were able to have a difference of opinion and discuss that without the conversation dissolving into a tense, defensive sort of conflict. This is precisely the sort of discourse that I, as a scholar, appreciate and what I think we need more of.

Maybe that's the next fashion trend? Waterfowl feathers and nests done up into intricate hairstyles.
Sounds like something I'd wear, to be perfectly honest.
