This means I am going to have to be extra noisy from now on, doesn't it?

That will probably not be very long. Maybe you could just paint a reddish smudge where I should be!

Relationship Note on Kenna
Just remember - her messenger, the thing that brought this to me? IS A SQUIRREL. Not just a squirrel. Like the PRINCESS of squirrels or something! And Lady Kenna had her bring me THIS! -from the skin of her messenger critter's own people-.
Secret. Badass.
(And herein, a bad drawing that fails to do justice to the below desc)
Makeshift 'Bear'skin Rug
Fashioned together from many many small skins that are definitely not bear (they look like squirrel), this rug is a patchwork mosaic of fluff and stitching. It lays mostly flat, but only because it's been stepped on a great deal. Still, it has it's own sort of charm with all the matted down fur and stretched outlines of flattened rodents.

It sounds like she might need it.
Yes, she can borrow it from time to time until I pass.

Then sang purposely so bad that dogs did howl

Starting over, there's some good coming of all this. NO, sister, I am not talking about losing the bet, though there were an awful lot of happy giggles at the idea of this whole fancy dress thing.
We're talking about what it means to be a knight, and I just had a really nice conversation about that with a young man from Oakhaven, Jonathan something I think. About what it means, about setting examples, about what we admired in knights when we were children. About how it shaped the grownups we've become. And then I'm reading other knights speak up about what their journey has been like, what it means to them.
I was raised with everything I would ever need, not having to worry about my next meal came from or a safe place to sleep. One of my good friends was an orphan from a very different life. Maybe without the dedication and idealism we take from our service, we would not have met. We may come from wealth or from poverty, we may have different tools to use, but I think at the end of the day it comes down to this for a lot of us: Whatever we do have, armed to the teeth or bare to the bone and with our last breath, we would give in service to this Compact. We would die for it, and we will live for it. We will die for you and we will live to protect you and serve you.
So thanks, Claw of the Realm, or whatever fancy title it was (SORRY, High Lord, I'll try to remember. You have a Very Important Cat. I like her sass), for making us reflect on what all that stuff means. I'm kind of glad you're not a knight, but you should be too. The plate would probably make it really easy for the mice to hear you coming. You still cost me a day in a dress.

The Bear Scouts are a different kind of scouts. I suppose I should make them their own post to explain what I'm doing. BE ON THE LOOKOUT!
Wow. those last points though. Not exercising for that long? And no alcohol?
Send help. We may have found the foe to lay me low - Summer. We may become bitter enemies you and I! (Well, except I mean of course the cycle of the seasons are great and the Gods and yay for all that. But I am going to be so happy when winter is back).

If you are ever wondering, it was the shark wrestling that caught my attention.
Though now I'm wondering if there's, you know, a fish equivalent of all these bunny problems.

Some of this summer stuff makes me miss Farhaven. People talk about bears hibernating in winter, but it's summer that makes me sleepy! But it's too itchy and hot and sticky.
Do not poke sleep deprived cranky summer bears.
HAH. Scholar! That was a very brave poke. You can do that.
So what advice do you southerners have for a very wintery bear dealing with their first summer here?

The bear scouts say that they will help as well, but would like to *herein there is a brief, quiet conversation with a bear scout, a scholar, and a princess. A moment later* Okay, I trust you guys. It's probably the right word. They would like the offer to be further ''incentivized'' with some of Lottie's cookies.

Candice liked cuddle bear. Candice may make different life choices in the future. Or she might be the most dangerous bear of all.

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