Relationship Note on Mae

The very best Harlequin that I know. Very best. Best rat-dog ever, as well.

Relationship Note on Killian

I only had the chance to meet you the once, but you seemed very nice. I'm sorry to have heard about what happened.

There are always a great many things that you begin to expect to happen. You expect the sun to come up, people to laugh and to cry, to drink and starve. All the various things that simply are what they are in this world. But I can honestly say that I have never expected to receive the gift that I received the other day. It was frightening, and funny, and terrible all at the same time.

How does one return such a gift? Might be easier to be buried in the courtyard, though.

I've been rather lax in writing things recently, not because there hasn't been anything worth writing. In fact, just the opposite of that. I've had so many different things that might be worth writing about that I'm not entirely sure where to start. Some things I'm sure really don't need to be remembered forever, at least not by anyone but me.

Do I dare to write those down? To fill the pages with nonsense just to hear myself talk.

Of course I do.

I shall start with....what I have observed. The city is always active, even in the usually quiet hours of the evenings and nights I have found that there is always somewhere to go. Someone new to meet, or old friends to see again. No more having to pace endlessly in the confines of my rooms, dying for things to do when I just can't sleep in the early hours of the morning.

There are also strange things that happen, such as the incident with the fire the other day. Of course, there are also other peoples journals to read, which oftentimes I find provides much thought, and more questions.

As for me? I've met new people, of course. Always new people. Dashing knights and song singers, gorgeous ladies in their fine dresses. It's enough to have one dizzy from it all.

Another new discovery...bruises are sometimes tingly and ...something else. I can't remember what the other was. I think I may have that head injury afterall. I'll just have to find something to keep me awake just in case. Whatever will I find.

Things just got very exciting. Very exciting indeed.

I'm pretty sure I heard this somewhere before, but I feel the statement is somewhat appropriate. The game is on.

Disappointments happen, and things can grow dark and terrible. But then, you wake up the next day and realize that it is not the end of the world. That there are still things. Life is there, people are there.

Seriously, disappointment is a bad look for me. I'm not letting the entire thing get me down! I will study more, and I will take the trials again. If I do not make it into the Society at that point, then I may need to rethink my entire life choice at that point. I could be come one of those ladies that has a bunch of adorable kittens. I like kittens, they are fuzzy and cuddly.

I've suffered from the first soul crushing bit of disappointment since arriving in the city. Now, I realize that I may (and probably am) greatly overreacting to the situation, but I still feel very disappointed. When I first arrived in the city there was a few things that I did almost right away, one was to reach out to a very specific group about membership. I heard back from the leader of the group who said to speak with others, I reached out to two others. One never responded, and another was so unpleasant that I just....I don't even know.

They did, eventually, assure me that I would be going through the next step. Now, nothing. No word, no contact, no next step. Once more, I've reached out to the others....and nothing. I realize that there are so many things happening in the city and Compact right now. But I feel so very disappointed, frustrated, and entirely unsure what I should do next.

Other than this bit of disappointment, things are fantastic. I'm moving forward with several other projects, making friends. Being social, which I enjoy.

I found an interesting little place up in the Redrain Ward. I met several new people, ran into some I've met before. Lots of painting happening, shirtless it seems as well seems to be a very great idea for painting.

Shopping List:

Horror Stories (For Fiora)
New Boots

Dinner with the family...first one since arriving in the city. It was very nice, I got to meet a few new people, and of course see others.

It is easy to fall back into old patterns, though.

I've made friends, I think, since arriving as well. At least, there seems to be an appearance of friendship offered in a few places that seems genuine. I very much hope that it is.

I keep mentioning the street fair to people, and they keep asking me when that'll be. I need to find out.

Day 16

I've passed the two week mark in the city, and I'm realizing there is still stuff to discover. I haven't seen all the Wards yet, and I've passed several shops that I haven't gone in. Either I need to re-double my efforts to explore everything, or slow down to drag the exploration of the city out longer.

My sister wants me to stay in the city for a while, and I'm not sure...I had no plans to go anywhere, but sometimes the road calls and the feet answer. Maybe if I find myself something to keep my hands and mind busy I won't start day dreaming of the next horizon.

Day 11

I went by the Society of Explorers HQ recently, very nice. I look forward to the little audition/trial that I'll go through to join. Lady Aislin is quite nice, and was happy to provide a quick tour before I had to run. I met two Igniseri while I was there, as well. Both of which I ran into then at the Golden Hart, and ran into Lady Aislin's brother.

Such things just show that despite how vast the city feels at times, it is really smaller than imagined.

I volunteered for that street fair thing, as well. I'm still waiting to see if my suggestion of a booth was well received, or if it will be rejected. I'm hoping that it'll be agreed to, although after a conversation with someone I now wonder at the wisdom of my suggestion. Oh well! Nothing ventured, nothing gained, right?

Day 7

I've been meeting more and more people, which is fantastic. Some are certainly more interesting than others, I dare say. I'm not entirely sure if that more interesting is always for the better, or if uninteresting is the safer route of friendship. But then, wouldn't I get bored? Maybe I'll simply be friends with every single person I meet, and not worry about getting into trouble with the wrong sorts....I'll get into trouble with everyone.

I love it here, though. It's like being able to travel without traveling with some of the individuals I've met being so very different from each other, all gathered here in one place.

Day 3

I've purchased a new sword to replace the one that I damaged on my way to the city. I suppose that it was bound to happen considering how long I'd had that blade, but a part of me is still sad. It was my first sword, and had been with me through so much, but that is the way of things sometimes. Isn't it?

I've met several new people as well, interesting ones. Perhaps I will run into them again sometime, I'm sure that despite the size of the city I probably will. Maybe.

Day One.

I have to say that I love the way a fresh journal looks, and my timing seems to have been spot on for when I arrived in Arx. My first day here, and a brand new blank journal to begin capturing my experiences in.

So far, my arrival has been a mixed bag. I'm, of course, happy to see my family again instead of just staying in contact through messengers. But there is always that giddy nervousness when you arrive at your latest destination. I fear that by the end of the day my temper was short and I may have spoken more harshly than I would have normally in response to a few things. Perhaps after a good nights rest, a hot bath and a good meal my mood might be less brittle.

I've a number of things that I need to get done once I'm rested, but nothing that can't wait until tomorrow.

Please note that the scholars may take some time preparing your journal for others to read.

Leave blank if this journal is not a relationship

Mark if this is a private, black journal entry
