Relationship Note on Fairen

There's only one person who's a great ass in the city. I leave it as an exercise for the reader to deduce to whom I refer (and shall note I do not count Marquis Leary in the top five. Top ten, however...)

Your Mae Culler imitation needs work.

Relationship Note on Thena

You only say that because you inexplicably like me.

Relationship Note on Coraline

A list of people who shouldn't be rude, organized roughly to your specifications, has been sent via private messenger. Do make additions and send it back to me at your leisure; I'd be interested in knowing your thoughts. Note I have already put myself on the list in anticipation of such an entry. Duplicate entries are not permitted.

Relationship Note on Coraline

I'll send you a list of possible motivated people.

How much talking is too much: it's like the length of one's jacket cuffs. Too long is sloppy, but too short might leave matters uncovered. You know when it's the right length.

Relationship Note on Coraline

We did meet. I told you you talked too much. You have short hair.

Regardless, I'll add 'don't be rude' to my list of motivational broadsheets.

Relationship Note on Monique

You should make broadsheets of all that, individually. People can post whichever one they like on their wall as a motivational saying. Perhaps have it be accompanied by dramatic scenery, or soaring birds, or winning a competition, all framed in black.

Relationship Note on Fredrik

I made that pun months ago regarding Mistress Petal. Work on it.

Relationship Note on Jaenelle

I appreciated my mysterious dinner guest, so you are aware. We got along splendidly. However, I meant what I said at the end, Your Highness, and I won't be shaken from it. Of that, you have my word. I welcome efforts to prove me wrong.

Relationship Note on Sabella

Mere coincidence that I'm looking through journals at the same time, I assure you. I have zero plans to read your rhapsodizing about the wedding. I couldn't care less. If you'd like, I would glady contribute some verse as a party favor for the wedding, however, thereby putting paid to the rhyming possibilities of "Nik" in all its grandeur. Entirely unrelated: did you know that "Sabella" rhymes with, if you'll permit me the cant, "a fella"? I can feel my poetic possibilities expanding even now.

No worries. It seems we have a half-dozen acrobats left for the spectacle.

I hadn't previously thought it possible to blow smoke up one's own you-know-where, but the Whites appear to be full of that this morning, on all sides of the discussion.

A new acrobatic marvel has been performed, and nobody need pay even a single silver for the privilege of entering the carnival tent.

Relationship Note on Fairen

Thoughts from the latest Journal Day:

To dine at Academy Hall,
one needs be a student; that's all.
But to listen to Leary
will make one quite bleary,
And thus do I write to forestall.

Marquis Leary, I await the riposte. Make it worth the read.

Relationship Note on Caspian

I see you're buying people gifts. If you ever want to buy me a really good knife, I wouldn't say no.

Yes, I know she's your relative. I still think I should get a gift.

Relationship Note on Sabella

I suppose I'd have to start reading Lord Niklas' journal instead. As lengthy as his discursions are, though, I may never be done with it.

Conversations like this one are why we pay messengers, you know.

Relationship Note on Quenia

"Especially if your life and the lives of the people surrounding you may be on the line, or the lives of others in general."

I think I'd rearrange those priorities a bit, although I doubt you meant the implication of this arrangement as putting oneself first. In any case: the lives of others in general, then those of people surrounding you, then your own life. Lying to save your own life in advance of lying to save others' strikes me as being somewhat ethically unsound, but lying to save another's may be an extremely ethical deed, depending on the lie itself and the circumstances surrounding it.

Relationship Note on Reigna

We're talking now? How very interesting. I hope you've been well, Countess Keaton, and I am flattered that my idle musings have caught your notice. Is that play going well?

Relationship Note on Reigna

"Is it ever acceptable to lie? Is it better to be polite or to express what you really think of the actions and beliefs of someone else?"

These two questions aren't really the same thing.

Too late.

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