Relationship Note on Aureth

Happy birthday to my cousin who's not my cousin... twice over.. actually.
Anyway, you're old. Congrats. Try not to get too many more wrinkles.

He didn't want anyone to know this, but he told me that he'd really love to get a bottle of sauce for his birthday. If you have an extra alcoholic delight laying around and you like the Archlector of Death, send it his way!

Another gift idea if you're searching is a nice hair brush.

Relationship Note on Magpie

Let me tell you all about Magpie Grayhope!

He is a dashing fellow that may have been born on a ship, loves rum, and recently ran afoul with the Iron Guard and had to spend time in a cell. It wasn't so bad though because he was still quite close to the sea and now he knows that he needs to improve his dagger-fighting skills. He's rocking a totally great name that's definitely not the one he was born with, but who really cares about that? Not him.

And here's some poetry:

Go to Highway Robbery to shop;
The fine wares there never stop;
The owner is just great,
So hurry up! Don't wait!

(Ten silver per signature, or a kiss. Your choice.)

So I was browsing through some of the latest and greatest in the journals of the Arx populace and as usual it was fairly disappointing. Why can't people share more rumors about each other? All they're doing is talking about smells. What the fuck is that all about? It gave me an idea though. The next time I'm planning on a black reflection I'm going to eat a lot of beans first. Then I'm going to guzzle a lot of ale. I'll make sure it's a really long reflection so me and the scribe are trapped in the room for a long time.

Rumors, people! Juicy rumors!

Did you know that Calaudrin Estardes only has one ball?

Do I read through the journals sometimes? Absolutely! Why? I don't know, it's something to do. Maybe I like to watch for opportunities. Whatever.

So now people are worried about animals? What the fuck is up with that?
Nevermind that there are people struggling and suffering, let's make sure to set up a really nice super-special home for old animals!

Here's another idea!

Donate resources to me, Magpie Grayhope, and I will use it to build a new facility down in the Lowers for all the struggling prodigals and refugees of this recent war. We'll call it Magpie's Meat Shop. Two birds killed, one stone thrown. (I actually don't really like that expression given how it relates to murdering birds and I'm a fan of birds, but it fits my point.)

So! If you support Magpie's Meat Shop, drop by the Murder of Crows or Highway Robbery and chat with me. Let's be economical with our funds!

I went off on a cargo run to Setarco. Good times. Good times.
Got back, it's been a day.

Ready to go on another cargo run.

Gloom and doom news aside, I got another couch! I really like this one. It's quite nice. Skapti is a fellow that delivers -- literally!
And now I get to go out sailing again. Absolute win for me.

Well, when Grayson princes deliver they sure fucking deliver. I have a stunning new couch, I can't even describe how amazing it is.

I look forward the first time I break it in.

If anyone wants to see this incredible couch, they need to be willing to help me properly put it through it's paces. I know a great game called Snake in the Grass.

Relationship Note on Ainsley

Don't offer a man anything for something and then get your breeches in a twist when he names a price.

Gods forbid a prince of Grayson can't shoulder the cost of a COUCH.

And he calls me the snake. He's lucky he didn't challenge *me* to a duel.

Relationship Note on Jhond

Meeting you was both awkward, yet delightfully pleasant... Much like a hand job from a stranger. You don't know how it's going to go in the beginning, but once you put it out there you realize it's just a great experience.

Relationship Note on Calaudrin

Here's a terribly unvague journal entry to clear up any confusion people might have had.

Calaudrin Estardes was referring to me when he brought up threesomes. This is because Esoka and I had discussed them once upon a time, but he did not want to partake. Given his writing about rashes, I'm starting to think perhaps that was just as well. Maybe he was looking out for me. That would definitely be in the man's upstanding, oh-so-lawful character... not wanting to spread rashes to others.

I know he and I have had a rocky relationship these past months, but recently he wrapped his arms around me so very tightly, I know there are still deeper feelings inside him. Perhaps some day he will let them go and share them with everyone. Why can our passion not be sung throughout eternity in the archives?

I do wonder if his crotch is still sore after our time together in that alley.
(Okay, that last part is a bit vague, but people don't want to read *all* the details, now do they? Be honest.)

Dust does not poison your soul. Worry not, good people of Arx. Moderation is advised, however.

I was wrong. There are worse smells.

I might have to look into a fundraiser for the Iron Guard on improving the state of their jail cells.

So I'm looking for suggestions on some of the better perfumers around the city.

If you wanna murder someone in the Murder, that's up to you, but under the fucking floor?
C'mon... some of us live here. Gods it smells in this summer heat.

Anyone have a place I can bunk for a few nights? Maybe I'll just sleep on my ship.

Just sent the money to Aiden. Us Magpies have to protect our own kind.

Got the shop stocked. Put the word out that it's stocked...
Who knew that running a shop was so much work? It's endless. I might have to take a break for while so I can actually enjoy myself again. I'm being entirely too productive and not nearly slacking off enough.

Maybe I'll take up some kind of charity project for the lowers to rebuild itself. Ha! Who am I kidding? I like the lowers just how it is. If the silks don't like it, that can stay out.

I hauled my ass down here.. up here? whatever.. I hauled my ass to the archive to talk about this gorgeous lady that I'm going to take on a boating day trip, but then I remembered she didn't want me to tell anyone. Since I'm trying to hook up with her I should probably respect that.

So, instead I'll talk about a fun little meeting I had yesterday. Apparently some of the nobility think that us poor, sad, downtrodden folks of the Lower Boroughs need their caring hearts to shower rebuilding efforts and charity upon us. I had no idea we were so pathetic and helpless. If you're one of those nobles that wants to help us down here where the shit settles before being washed into the sea, feel free to bring donations in silver to the Murder of Crows and I'll make sure to distribute it fairly and without bias to the most needy residents around here. Sailor's honor.

(Please consider increments of ten thousand silver for the most effective means of redistribution)

Relationship Note on Calaudrin

My dearest First Officer Estardes,

Given the nature of the request and the potential of a bond being built with the dame, I might perhaps welcome you to get involved in my relationships. You see, getting involved in my relationships is in essence exactly what I was asking, given the overlap that would be involved. You might be surprised at just how rewarding such interactions could be. If you're intimidated, it's okay. I'd be happy to educate you on some of the finer methods for maximum enjoyment.

Also, I should make it clear that it was very much *her* idea.

Relationship Note on Aureth

Aureth... an archlector.

I just can't even wrap my head around it.

Hopefully I can fill the boots he left behind in the Grayhope family. We've already proven that I fit into his armor. And his shirt. And his bed is terribly comfortable but Thena snatched that up.

I noticed he cleaned out the liquor cabinet... well played, Aureth. Well played.

The perk of getting all smashed up by a Bringer? You can sit back and watch everyone else work to clean up the mess after the battle and no one bats an eye.

Don't worry, my friends, I sip this cider in solidarity. Honest. I wish I could help. Breaks my heart to be laid up. So sad. I'm crying on the inside.

In other news. Got the pawn shop open. Decided on the name Highway Robbery.
Now I just have to think of a witty way to advertise it.
