I don't have any family, so in the event of my untimely demise? Duchess Evelynn Helianthus gets to look at my Black journals and decide what to do with them.
I suggest bringing libations when you do, Duchess.

I've gotten the most beautiful pieces of amethyst recently. I've been keeping them in the back room, to admire while I work. I should probably try selling them, though.

It's nearly mulled wine season, which is probably my favourite season.
..I wonder if anyone would buy my mulling spice blend, if I put some in the shop? How have I never thought of this before?

Relationship Note on Tanith
I'm glad so many of her cookies are shaped like skulls and bones.
They'll be the death of me.

Relationship Note on Enyo
Apparently we're going on an adventure! What would I have done with myself if you'd never come back to me?

Sometimes, I think I've gotten to where I am on my ability to listen alone.
When I was younger, knowing who was in charge, or who not to piss off.. That was everything. Fucking up had consequences-- and in the Lowers, so many consequences are life or death. Not getting paid can murder someone as easily as a knife.
Now, it's useful in other ways. I'm still good at picking out the big fish, and I still listen to what they say-- or don't say. Who they defer to, who they respect. I don't have to like it, or like them. I just have to navigate towards my own ends.

It's a shame about the orchids, but perhaps now there'll be more room in Arx's gardens for wildflowers and more decorative species.

I have two perfume commissions, Scholar, and they couldn't be more different. They also couldn't be more.. hilarious, really. I never thought I'd be asked for these particular scents.

There's little that compares with the rush of a successful opening night-- and less that compares with the afterparty.

Did you know, Scholar, that some people actually come here every day and write journals?
..Oh, of course you would.

I didn't win any of the competitions, sadly, but Saikland's wine festival was pretty fun, all in all. Particularly all the tasting. I haven't found one to compete with Lenosian Red as my favourite, but there were some good alternatives.

...I think at this point, I've cleaned out Tanith's bakery twice now. Everything is so good, and I just haven't been able to resist! Maybe it would be easier if I wasn't right next door.
Or if I weren't so hungry lately, I suppose.

It feels so strange not to be worried about someone else's books. I've worked for House de Lire for.. years, now.
Still, every chapter has an end. Some get revisited. For now, I'm excited to be able to focus my attention a little more.

It's mulled wine season! Is there anything better than sitting by a window, wrapped in a blanket and drinking mulled wine?!

I bought a new dress-- yes, a dress! and slippers for the Masquerade the other night, and promptly lost the slippers. I heard a New Moon had wandered off with them?
I'm sure my regular boots will look fine with the dress, next time I have occasion to wear it.
