You're going to be good at this, big sister.
The motherhood thing. You are. I promise you.
And if you need help, you have it. I did manage to raise a son to almost ten years of age, and though I'm not in daily contact with him, I take credit for my work.
You're going to be good at this!

I cannot claim credit for this marvel, however:
A bacon wrapped pickle. I was given this at a meeting held by my cousin, Princess Sophie, Mother Mercy. I do not know where she came up with this culinary delight, but I can tell you. It was salted heaven. Anchovies and blueberries on crackers. Fried potatoes and goats cheese with plum preserves.
Normally I have quite the sweet tooth, but when I am pregnant all I want is salt.
Once, I was in my garden working in the flower beds and the smell of the dirt, that rich, loamy scent of fertile soil made my mouth water. I did not eat it. I thought about it. But I certainly considered it.
I once had a pregnant patient tell me she ate a whole block of clay. She had some impaction issues that she needed treatment for. Figs. Lots and lots of figs.

But who do you love the MOST is the question. Who have you loved the MOST?
Answer: Me, duh.
I'm still alive. I got a papercut yesterday, which you did cause in a way, because it was from that set of messages back and forth regarding the thing you won't tell me, and how you are a horrible sister and the worst and you always used to break your toys and tell Mother it was my fault.
Still, you love me best of all, and I am told my papercut will mend in a few weeks if I am very careful and do not do any sort of work. To speed my recovery.
Yet I am not dead. Chin up big sis!

Big as a barrel, slippers don't fit. lower ribs feel like Orathy decided to bruise or break a few of them, the front of floor length skirts are half way to knees, stomach is so crowded there is no room but for a few bites at a time and some smiles are just hidden, stoic grimaces at the back and leg pains. Sleep is an hour at a time between getting up to use the necessary. All this and more is in your future, dear Auntie. But one thing to be said for it, you have a built in distraction for the next three months to help mitigate grief. Every time you start to brood and memories flood back there will be something there to distract you, something there to remind you that you are not alone, something there depending on you, needing you, something to love that will love you back without reservation if you let it. Stay strong Auntie, we care about you.

Cassius' death in NOT your fault. Much as I hate to admit it, he was always destined for a young and violent death, and you well know why. Death surrounds some of us. We cannot control it, we cannot stop it. We must simply learn to bear up under the burden and keep going. I could share an even longer death toll of my own, Lady Malvici, but it would do none of them any good to lament my culpability in their deaths.
Now, as I believe you would say... Pick your ass up, have a shot of something strong, and go kill something, for fuck's sake.

“I hereby issue challenge to Princess Saorise Velenosa for hosting an impromptu salon in a quiet bar where people are just trying to enjoy the damn atmosphere and not listen to a lot of yapping.”
Perhaps the meaning is in code? If so, maybe share the right cypher.

There's a song about you? I must know it. The one penned by Lord Niklas is being sung by one of my assistants and it's catchy as balls and I wouldn't mind having another for an apprentice to sing to mix things up.

Oh. I cherish my husband, with every fiber of my being. That doesn't mean I don't get annoyed from time to time with smothering. But, far be it for me to be selfish about it. I'm willing to share his exuberance. I can send him to you for a time -- with a warning not to touch your stomach. I'll endure through that part alone.
Just let me know!

At least it also kept us busy stocking our shops rather than getting into the sorts of mischief that have us delivered to your doorstep in wheelbarrows? Hahaha! Not really funny, but I didn't want you to think I was terribly serious either. I've not forgotten what I promised to make! Just a bit behind on such things.

I'm hoping that knowing it's coming -next- year will make it a little less of a frantic stock-and-weep for the Crafters. A few weeks more notice would have been nice as well, everything happened so -quickly-.
(-thought I actually thought this part was fun; how fast -can- you set glass in metal without breaking it?)
(...alright, ready, set, -stitch...!)
(the constant ringing of hammers at all hours)
But yes. Quite lucrative.

Remember when Albion died and I refused to see anyone or do anything for...was it months? Seemed like it. When I couldn't stand to look at or even think about Frederic, when all I wanted was to sleep and sleep because I did not miss him when I was sleeping.
You dragged me out of bed, got me dressed, forced visits and meetings until I managed to have some semblance of a life again. You told me that his time was finished but mine was not. That there is not necessarily rhyme or reason to it, it is just the nature of life and of death. You told me that pain passes.
I wasn't wrong. Everything hurt and I wanted to sleep.
You weren't wrong. After a time, it stopped hurting so much, and after a time, there were things to smile about again.
So let us both remember that now that we have switched stances. I wasn't wrong, I'm not wrong now. You weren't wrong, you're not wrong now.
I won't give up on you ever, because you would never give up on me.
Love you.

I think my sister Eirene might try to swap me. I have read between the lines of her recent communications and it seems all too obvious.
If you are reading this and I have vanished and Eirene looks too innocent when she tells you she has no idea where I am....
Find me and help me!
