Relationship Note on Gwenna
Your Highness: What a pity it's proverbially Wednesday. Still, thank you for your advice, and should that Tuesday ever come, I will let you know. Keep in mind, I have lived five more years than you as of two days ago, and all the same, my experience in matters of the heart seems to be much less. Of course, I've been reliably informed I don't have one.
Master Culler: Alas, I'm afraid my talent for doggerel was a proximate cause of the matter's conclusion. Any talents I have in the direction of Jayus are apparently misaligned. That said, I'll take a drink if you'll buy me one, as I'm fairly sure I've bought you several by this point.

To whomever should see this:
When someone you care for no longer appears to care for you, how do you overcome this? Asking for a friend, of course. It seems what I told someone long ago about Limerance vis-a-vis myself has rung true. As much as I dreaded it, I knew all along it was the case.

Relationship Note on Sabella
If the highest lesson Master Culler can teach is "how to get a princess to go out with you," then I'm afraid his priorities are sorely misplaced. I hadn't had such a base read of him, but perhaps I will have to lower my opinion.
Don't you have a story to be writing? Hop to it.

Relationship Note on Itzal
Have it as you will. But know if I hear a ballad about a man in black and a delicate and artistic princess, I will assume you, not I, are the dark-clad gentleman in question, and will do my very best to share this conclusion with the city at large.

And perhaps seeing if you would rise to the challenge was (pardon the inevitable pun) solely the reason I asked. I did mention a bucket, I believe, which would have spared all but your pride.

Relationship Note on Sabella
I /did/ offer a drink. You refused to take it, sadly.
Does anyone in Arx really believe I have a problem saying what I mean? I have been accused of many things, but I must observe that's a first.
Following Master Culler's format, since I take your hint:
If I wanted to share a kind drink,
I'd have done so already, I think.
You've a Kennex playwright
who can find how to say right,
that offer which I'd never brink.
Your requests for a drink are in vain.
If it's unclear, then let me explain:
I just made the offer
so I could be a scoffer
and watch while you drank the Foolsbane.
... I hope that clarifies matters. I can put it in story format too if you would like. Let me know!

My ears are ringing again. You must have written a lot of journals recently. The question is why the scholars at the Archives persist in showing them to me. It must be some subtle revenge upon my person.
You really should have tried the Foolsbane, though.

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.

Surely one or two points of that list I sent you were salient. There were ten of them, after all.

Relationship Note on Venturo
"Should someone only read a snapshot in time of what we document, what wrong assumptions might they jump to?"
I'd suggest that our Whites read as exactly the picture we mean to portray, and that any assumptions others make aren't necessarily wrong but merely the product of impressions left. If you brew a beer with coffee in it, most will say it's too bitter for them, but three or four might like it. Who is right in that circumstance?

For the sake of brevity and to be a sport, I will limit the list to the top ten complaints. I think I should get a gift in return for that kindness. Let's discuss.

By the by, this isn't your perfume, is it? Nobody's sent me a missive yet about its provenance.

"Is there anything this impressive lady can't do?"
She can't be a true blonde, much to what I'm sure is her everlasting regret.
