Relationship Note on Talen

Aren't the duties to family always a constant?

There will always be more songbirds, but I've just the one sister.

How bad can I mess it up?

Relationship Note on Talen

You are, surely, one of the most impressive knife-throwers I've had the opportunity to watch, if even briefly. Indeed, your highness, I imagine one of these years we might manage to find ourselves in a ring at the same time.

Relationship Note on Talen

If you meet a dog that's an asshole, don't punch the dog. Punch the owner right in the face, or at the very least challenge then to a duel if you want to be more civilized about it.

Why is that? Because most of pets have bad habits because of their owners. While yes, many owners pay attention to behaviors like biting or pawing. They often neglect to realize that petting can be a bad habit as well. It's their emotional health that plays a large part in making that dog an asshole or needy bitch that's constantly seeking attention from complete strangers.

Like most problems, attention seeking can start innocent enough. The dog gets pet, it feels good and the dog seeks more. At first, it's just sitting in front of folks, looking all needy and whining. Then it escalates to pawing or rubbing their head against clothing. If the dog doesn't get the attention, then it's jumping or slapping you with his paw. And if the owner gives in, provides the dog what they want then the REST OF US ARE FUCKED. Cause this bitch just learned that now all it has to do to get attention is whine, paw or jump on folks. Then the dog becomes a menace to the general public.

When you meet a dog that's patient, sits there looking from cues from it's owner before it acts and leaves the rest of us alone, buy that person a drink or at the very least support their cause by /not/ petting their dog until they give permission. Cause they've taught that dog how to act in public and most folks in public should respect that. They've given that dog a solid emotional framework not to be a needy bitch.

It should be noted, I don't own a dog. I prefer birds of prey with razor sharp claws that rip people to shreds for unwanted attention.

Well, the cat wouldn't have been the one to open the drawers and start picking up cases of things, opening those and then putting them back together. I'm not stupid, Talen.

Also where I come from cream is either medicine or it's food. It wasn't medicine so if the world made sense, if would have been food.

ArchDuke Talen, I do appreciate your rabid concern for the safety of the slippers as it is warranted. I fear they will be stolen at any moment.

Relationship Note on Talen

It's been a few years now, since I got my Barony from Talen. A lot of people have asked why, and the answer largely boils down to the Seawatch Wall. Nearly everyone fell, and I stood. Covered in gore, winning the fight, and eager to get to more. It's also true that I had cleared out Afflua of monsters before the Wall happened, but the was one of those moments where... at least, as far as I'm concerned, and likely as the world will be concerned, now that we're looking at the past, history will change.

At the Seawatch Wall, Talen and I stood fast. Our battered forced held as others ran. Velenosa gained, that day, a new hound. No, I don't consider that an insult. We stood together, against the waves and waves and waves of the enemy, and so slick with gore that we could barely hold our footing, a new House was founded.

So that's our story, Compact. That is the origin of the house of De Lire. We are the dog of the Velenosa. When you fuck up so bad that subtlety is no longer an option, that's when we're there.

Our sigil is the laughing dog's head. And our words, though not chosen by me, are entirely perfect.

We aren't laughing with you.

I'm pretty sure that tea was worth more than my entire wardrobe.

You should definitely do this again, possibly in the afternoon.

I would ask how much you want, but thankfully family accounts are not mine to control. So I believe I shall instead thank you for your words, and promise to continue to prove worthy of such praise.

The man who announced my Knighting and did many of the honors for it. I am thankful to House Velenosa for the opportunity to prove worthy of serving the Hundred Cities and Archduchess.

Relationship Note on Talen

Today, I just want to write a little bit about Talen, in this journal of mine.
Absolutely, these are thoughts that should be recorded for Vellichor, and for all who would read them.
Lately I have had a lot of time to reflect upon my relationships - my relationship to him - especially.
Every time I visit with the man, I feel as if I come away better for it. Not just because of the haze, mind you.
Now, this isn't to say that he won't also stir you a little fucking crazy at the same time. Balance in everything.

Such is the nature of the southern people, I suspect. But also, speaking of Talen, and the nature of the Lycene..
Under no circumstances should anyone believe I was paid to write any of these kind things about the man.
Choice is a powerful thing (HI ALEKSEI) and sometimes you should just choose to honor your friendships, visibly.
Kan you believe I'm even sober for this wonderful contribution to the archives? Mostly sober counts, you know.
Sincerely, Luca

I can get you a tea for that, Your Grace?

...was that funny? I was trying to be funny.

For the record, I do not hate High Lord Victus, and was sincere in my apology to him.
