Relationship Note on Joscelin
Well if are all going on about it, when you are a Whisper you get to belong to a little bit of everyone. You're already marvelous darling. Doors are always open.

Relationship Note on Zerric
I will also add, on the topic of rumors.. that often they are based in untruths, half truths and outright lies. In that respect I rather agree that they can be poisonous and toxic fiends that wreck havoc on innocent lives. However, just because one does not like the consequences to their actions - does not mean that the folly is based on rumors. Sometimes the truth is just unattractive when seen from another perspective. Simply put, for every action there is to be expected a reaction. If you do not like the reaction your actions have caused then perhaps it is time to reconsider how you act.

Relationship Note on Zerric
Now that is a fine idea, isn't it? Perhaps then, instead of asking for ideals like patience, consideration and common courtesy I should instead ask for a chance to say "no thank you" before the hand wanders upon my thigh, my breast or a kiss is sought out and given. I assure had any of this been negotiated beforehand, that would have been my answer.
I understand though, that it is easier to look for blame from the other person than to admit that perhaps you crossed a line. Perhaps the hints were too subtle, perhaps you took the lack of outright invitation as a different sort of invitation, perhaps you simply didn't know better... Well, I can only imagine that now you do.

Relationship Note on Isolde
Many a person has suggested that, but my question and concern is - what if the insulted party loses the duel? Must we then hand over our bodies for use or admit to some fault on our part because they do not possess tact or manners? In this situation I think I would rather scoop my eyeballs out with a spoon.

Since I guess it needs to be said: If a woman desires to be touched intimately, to be groped or manhandled, petted or pawed, invited to share someones bed, or even to just be kissed I think it ought to go without saying that 1. A reasonable amount of time between initially meeting and developing any amorous intent should be first established. 2. Extensive research and a firm understanding of the womans reciprocating feelings should be made and had. - And really that's it. One might think that these were fairly easy concepts to grasp but then One would be dissapointed after any small amount of time spent in Arx. While I could never claim to be prudish by any sense of the term, ever... by anyone ... I am nearly alarmed by the amount of intimate attention that I have been recieving and were it *just* me, I might frown at myself for being so crass as to publish this in a journal, but after speaking to a few women I realize it is not *just* me, but a spreading contagion affecting the populous as a whole. So I ask simply that a little bit of graciousness, patience and good manners are put into effect whenever someone has the urge to shove their tongue down another persons throat, or grab their breast in the baths. Thank you.

Time is a funny little thing, isn't it? It can spend itself away and change the tide of wars, turn enemies to friends and friends to ghosts - the pure face of change, and yet... And yet... nothing truly changes in the end. Perhaps it is just that time is the biggest illusion of all.
I am pleased to find this city of ours much in the way that I left it. I am pleased to return home and form it to feel as such and to look forward to the road ahead.

Curiouser and Curiouser
And down that hole we go
And how we fall and where we land
no one will ever know.
I've been asked for a list - a precious bit of fun to be spun around like thread for a snare. And who will be captured by it, I wonder? Which of us is really being hunted? The rules are simple, as rules of this nature should be... Be Maddening. Be Glorious. Be Promising. Be Adventerous. Be distracted by me. Hold on to your secrets. I don't want them yet. Be Brave. Do not underestimate me, I like the challenge too much. Do not pretend I am something I'm not because you are afraid of what I am. Do not condemn me - our night is still young and I will not be through with you, even when the night is done. Do not get my dress dirty.

I always thought it was spring time that brought love in the air - leave it to the Redrain to prove me wrong. Of course, there has never been a happier occasion or more of a willingness to be wrong. I love love. I love witnessing it and the reaffirmation that it exists in our world. As a Whisper I have seen more than my fare share of unhappy unions, so to see so many matches made of love is rare and beautiful and I hope that time blesses you all with kindness and patience.

Another busy week has passed in a blur. The fashion show went well enough and was made delightful by the company and help of Lady Juliana. She is such an honest and vivid person, the idea that anyone could be outwardly cruel to her is baffling. I look forward to our next project together and look forward to all the positive changes we will be able to bring to the Orphanage.
The next day was the Laurent fall festival and I cannot speak highly enough of it. Lady Jael and Duke Cristoph absolutely shined. It was entertaining and clever and there were all sorts of goodies to try. Not to mention the sight of everyone cornholing - the best part of the evening by far.
Princess Valencia's party tonight and the Pravus birthday celebration tomorrow - which will also mark the opening of the Arx Botanical Gardens, a project I've been working on for ages and and so lucky to have the Duchess Pravus and Lady Carita to partner with.

Relationship Note on Skye
And of course, I cannot comment upon one instance without saying something about the other. In this instance if was myself that was cold and unwelcoming, and I can only assume that a previous entry had me in mind. You ask for compassion, I will ask for understanding. I was unkind and likely I will keep my distance simply because I cannot ignore the scars of my past. They are all that has shaped my present and my future. I hope you find your own healing in our city. I hope you find welcome and a home. Perhaps time will throw us upon a different path together.

Relationship Note on Alarissa
Social necessitates in a society such as ours are not an option. They are an obligation and a tool and a weapon. Anyone may, of course, choose to wield theirs as they wish but they should also understand that there are consequences to all actions. The Whisper House prides itself on it's social standing and it's social influence and when at an event hosted by the Whisper House, good behavior is *not* something that should have to be enforced. If you have to be called out for your bad behavior at an event, then the problem is most likely not the event.

Relationship Note on Juliana
Today I light a candle to Lagoma and offer a prayer of thanks as I feel with a certainty that our paths have crossed at the behest of her will. I meet many people throughout my days, and each are appreciated wholly and genuinely, but in you I am delighted to find a breed of kinship that is rare and precious. Even at your darkest, yours is a heart meant to shine and I am simply grateful for the times you wish to share that light with me.
Cast your worries aside, dear friend and trust the pull of your feet and that wherever you walk, your path will unfurl behind you for yours is not one that has been walked before but of your own making.. and for those of us that follow it will will be in light and warmth and a dazzling beauty of grace.

Relationship Note on Eirene
Wicked fun no matter what the occaision - be it stitching up a wound, giving someone a sound talking to or throwing back a glass or two of whisky. I think I want to be like her when I grow up, I want to be able to take the world with that grain of salt and see the truth of it - then demand that it sort itself out and stop being a baby about it. While she'd never admit to it, she has so much grace to her and her very own brand of elegance. I am ever honored to know her and always enjoy a drink in her company.

One of my favorite drinking partners - along with Lady Eirene of course, and when it's the two of them together... well. That's a party right there and that's exactly what I had the pleasure of enjoying the other evening. Having been kept so busy of late, I've forgotten how nice it is to just talk without any underlying messages, or ulterior motives other than to simply have fun. - Too there is now the promise that Anze will find me a burly and beastly northerner to spend the winter with in an attempt to convince me that northern winters are not in fact the frozen hell that I imagine them to be.

Relationship Note on Miles
He warned me that he might be grumpy, but I only found him charming. We only spoke the once but there is promise of more and I find myself looking forward to it. There is something to be said about a gentleman who wears his lines of age with pride and acknowledges his experience as well earned. That is not a wisdom you can learn in any book at the Vellichorian. I hope we are able to speak again soon.

Busy.. Busy... Busy... That's what this past week has been, and the next after it. I love nothing more than to see my house flourishing and being called upon and relied upon in all the many aspects we offer.
While the charity fashion show was postponed a week, I am confident it will be a success and afford much needing clothing and blankets for the orphans of the Tragedy. I always enjoy a celebration of clothing and as well as benefiting those who need it most, it will also be excellent praise to Jayus.
After that I will be excited to hold Pravus Birthday Celebrations as the first event in the Arvum Botanical Gardens - yet another project I've been working on and one dear to my heart. I've always wished for a public garden in the city, something for us to walk and picnic and enjoy and that is precisely what I have been given the opportunity to create along with the Lady Carita Darkwater and Duchess Belladonna Pravus.
After that there will be several events hosted by the Faith that I am looking forward to lending my hand to. And more and more I see our house being called upon to mediate and offer our assistance in diplomacy.
Most Whispers are no strangers to hardships and pasts they are all to willing to leave behind and I think I am no different - so when I see before me a sprawling future full of gracious clients who wish to see the best of the world and work to make that happen while allowing me to take part, I can only be thankful of the opportunities I have been given.

Are you watching me, watching me?
And if you are, do you like what you can see, can't see?
Are you finding me, finding me - to your liking? Find me.
Your velvet touch - it's such a rush
and leaves so many questions
left upon your tongue.
But I know what I'm doing here
your every move is crystal clear
So bring it on, bring it on
your night is where I belong
I'm calling you out - oh the games you play
You've promised nothing, but I'm taking everything
Come what may - make no mistake.
I'll cut my teeth on the marks you leave
and slip inside, and you'll never see.
Do you really think you're a challenge to me?
So tell me now -
Are you finding me, finding me - to your liking?
