Relationship Note on Saoirse

Stumps managed to eat one of Saoirse's rings when he delivered a message on my behalf.

Good news! Carys found the ring!
Bad news! Carys found the ring .. if you know what I mean.

I am not sure if she would like the ring back. I mean, it doesn't smell or anything -- it was -well- cleaned -- but there is that mental hurdle of knowing where it was discovered that might make the piece less than desirable.

Sorry, friend! Again, let me say: congratulations on your wedding!

Relationship Note on Tomwell

Tomkins.
Cousin.

You are gone but are you really? I like to think that you simply left, that you are pursuing happiness elsewhere. Even with that thought in mind, my heart is left a little bit hollow by your leaving. I will miss you and I hope -- goodness me, I hope -- that we will meet again someday.

I will always hear music whenever I think of you.

Oh dear!

I am very sorry that Stumphrey played a game of keep-away with an unstopped inkwell. I promise that I will pay for the rug. And the furniture. And the repainting of that room.

Chaos agent, that one.

Relationship Note on Jeffeth

I wish that person had listened to you.

The truth is, you can warn people. You can give them advice. You can express your concerns. But at some point, one must accept: their choices are their own so the consequences of their actions -- good or bad -- belong to them.

It doesn't lessen your sorrow, though, to watch someone destroy themself. It makes one feel so helpless.

Relationship Note on Sabella

I ran into Catriona in the gardens at the Grotto. Quite literally! I gave her a hug but she was on a swing so we both crashed to the ground. These things happen when one is the Best Hugger in Arx.

HEAR THAT, SABELLA? BEST. HUGGER. IN. ARX.

I've received several invitations over the past few days. What a festive time! Perhaps everyone is excited for winter being right around the corner. I will need to procure some seatouched wool and get something new made.

I have heard that there are flowers that grow beneath rocks! Flowers!! Beneath /rocks/! I will never stop being fascinated by all the strange and wonderful things in this world. What do they look like? What do they smell like? How do they even manage to grow under there? Do they have muscles? As they grow, do they push the rock off them as if to say: 'Surprise! HERE I AM'? Can someone bring me a bouquet -- wait, no. Plucked flowers die and such rare and amazing things as under-rock-blooms should be allowed to flourish.

Does anyone want to go on a rock-turning adventure with me? It sounds like an amazingly fun prospect and even if we don't find any, won't that just be a lovely walk about town?

Relationship Note on Elisha

How terrible it must be, to be excommunicated. To fall from grace .. what a lonely and terrible existence that must be.

My prayers are that the young man finds his way back to the Faith so he may walk in the light once more.

Relationship Note on Elloise

Dearest cousin Elloise.

The measure of a person is how they get up after being knocked down -- whether they carry with them lessons learned or doom themselves to the fate of repeating the same mistakes. Knowing you and your scientific mind, this experience has given you an education.

It is my hope that all parties involved manage to weather this storm and emerge from this break-up better people for it.

Relationship Note on Saoirse

I'm coming for you specifically, Saoirse! Hugging you successfully is PEAK hug-training.

Relationship Note on Sabella

It is so nice to have Princess Sabella and Prince Niklas back in the city! Although Princess Sabella has really upped her hugging skills -- I will have to train long and hard to make sure that I remain the Best Hugger in Arx.

So watch out, everyone!

HUGS INCOMING.

Thrax family dinner!

A sea monster was the showcase of the feast. I mean, it was a fish but /what a fish/! I have never seen so many teeth in all my life. I am constantly amazed by the creatures that dwell beneath the waves.

Relationship Note on Tyche

Lady Tyche Inverno is a wonderful, engaging, fun woman. I am so happy to have her as my protege and I look forward to introducing her to the movers and shakers of the city. Plus, we are kitten buddies now -- what's not to love?!

Expect great things!

When you are hurt, I am hurt as well. Please get better soon. Part of my heart is missing when you are not near.

Relationship Note on Luca

I think I am /still/ drunk from Luca's funeral.

Oh my gosh Luca, even in death you torment me.

Jerk!

I -so- miss you -- although since our entire friendship was based on the exchange of messages, I guess I can still send them to you. I will just have to assume that you are too busy having adventures and fun to reply just yet.

Relationship Note on Luca

Oh Luca.

I'm sitting here with Cuddle Puddle, the kitty that I annoy-begged you for until you finally relented and gave her to me. 'We'll share custody,' you told me but we never did manage to make time to visit. After all, there was always tomorrow and we made do with ridiculous messages sent back and forth in the mean time. How I wish we had just carved out some time -- despite what we choose to believe, no life is too busy for friends.

I will miss you.
I am so mad at you.

Jerk!

Someone asked me recently: if I were an animal, what animal would I be?

I gave it some thought. My first instinct was CORGI but that's just because I love Stumphrey so much. Then I thought of a bunny (not rabbit) because they are so, so, soooo cute. But then it struck me:

Otter!

They are adorable, playful, curious, clever and of the sea. They seem to be such joyful creatures and, if I had to choose, that is what I want people to think of when they think of me...

Joy.

Have you ever seen a lemon thrown, like, 900 feet? I have! It was a truly spectacular feat of athleticism to behold! If you ever have the opportunity to witness it, I highly recommend it.

On a completely unrelated note: I am sorry, Carys, for the tart fruit that struck your head this evening.

Oh! I forgot to mention: I am entering Stumphrey in a dog show! We are very excited about this and by 'we', I mean me. I am very excited about this. I have had a new sweater made for him. I am also considering getting little wings stitched on (to the sweater, not to him). Or -- oh! -- maybe I can attach a wee horn to his head somehow? Unistumps!

There is no possible way he can lose.

Unless he wanders off and starts licking random people's shins. Or toes. Or really anything within corgi-height of him.

I am 22 now! I feel so much smarter and more worldly than when I was a mere 21. This year, I am resolved to go on a grand adventure! It seems the only sensible thing to do, now that I have all this experience and know-how under my belt. Granted, I still cannot defend myself from harm but that is what stronger, burlier companions are for.
