Relationship Note on Joscelin

Guildmaster,

You've no idea. Complicated is a very polite way to say it though, ain't it?

Can't imagine the Lowers wit' out dem though.

Yes. The Grayhopes are a complicated lot.

Relationship Note on Mae

I know it. To rise in the morning is to wonder, today where will Mae's ire rise? It is how I know I have an impact on the world.

Relationship Note on Fortunato

Don't worry, sweet Fortunato, I still blame you!

For most things.

Relationship Note on Aureth

Once in a while, when a matter is my fault, Aureth is still the one in trouble. Suppose it's a brother thing, but it's odd all the same.

Relationship Note on Joscelin

It's a fine thing to hope for, that in times of war, folk will set aside petty feuds and come together as one, as their best selves.

The way things are, though, is that most folk ain't their best selves they spend all their time worried and anxious. Often takes folk the other way instead.

The way of things.

Magpie was my heroic rescuer that night.

As always.

Fine... I'll say it!

A terrible, terrible influence.

Relationship Note on Aureth

Look. You can't say you didn't deserve every object I hurled at your head. You were speaking nonsense. 'Stupid shit', if I need to quote accurately.

Magpie was there. He agreed that you deserved it.

You drive me -insane-, Aureth. Absolutely -tits- -up- insane.

'It was a good idea at the time-'

-Honestly-.

Relationship Note on Thorley

Ida is quite lovely and she can kick the ass of any man. I mean, I'd marry her but I love her too much to do that to her.

Relationship Note on Joscelin

Imagine my surprise that my grumped muses on this thing would bring such pleasantness to my door in the form of a small tin of balm and a thoughtful note from Guildmaster Joscelin Arterius. After reaching out to thank her for the gift, we met and spoke at length. And what had started off as small talk extended into a long evening of sharing things I thought noone would care to hear.

I look forward to more time in her presence and company.

Though she keeps trying to offer me to Ida.

We all have the freedom to choose our paths, and if people choose the eve of war as times to behave as petty imbeciles, that is a demonstration of their humanity.

Honestly, it's not that surprising. Everyone reaches a breaking point sooner or later, and at a time when stress and terror grow in even the boldest of hearts, how not now?

Even true and loving friends I have known since I was a small boy occasionally flip out and hurl OBJECTS at my HEAD.

You feel slighted? Need to challenge a fellow peer of the realm? Consider your local Champion. They're here to serve you for reasonable rates.

Or, in my case, free.

I expect gossip, tittering speculation among folks both prominent and less so. But the more I hear about 'rumor' and 'insults' fed through the grapevine of he-said she-said exposed here in the Whites, the more bothered I am.

Who has the time with a -war- looming over our souls to be that petty? Stop wasting your fucking time trying to tear other people down, if you can't be an adult about your existence then please be sure to put your thoughts here, where we can all see it, so I don't need to waste -my- time trying to be civil to someone who can't bother to do the same.

Maybe I'm simply vexed that it's my -friends- that are experiencing these things, or perhaps my circles have had the grace to never overlap into the likes of which I now want to avoid. Am I too idealistic? I expect this behavior from children, not peers of the realm or anyone above the age of majority.

[it's noted by the scholar that the conversation dissolves into mumbling swear words that border on heretical, and he chose not to record them]

People who are interested in calling me names or otherwise insulting me can feel free to send me a messenger directly rather than try and deliver messages through my friends.

Relationship Note on Derovai

Oh, did you think he was serious? I just assumed that it was the beginning of an elaborate work of fiction based on how he likes people to handle his big sword.

Relationship Note on Theron

So you're laughing at others' physical weakness, Lord Theron? Not a virtue, as I understand them to exist. Here's hoping the Velenosas find a better use for their sword-bearers than being figures of fun for someone who should know better. Perhaps it would be advisable to keep one's scorn to Blacks, or to apply it only to targets who can, as you might say in the trade, strike back.

Two spars fought with the longsword, two spars won. It helps that my longsword was a very expensive gift, but one that was thoughtfully given. I've also received an inestimable gift from the Velenosas - the services of Garibaldi, the Sword-bearer. Let me tell you all, it's quickly becoming fun to tell him:

"Garibaldi, the rubicund greatsword, please."

And watch the poor man struggle before handing over the right tool of the trade, so to speak. I don't know that I can take him to the sea, but the thought of fighting in the vanguard, stepping back and switching weapons according to demand amuses me.

(Various attempts at writing in a white journal, but every time it's started, it's in Oathlands shav with a line crossed through it each time. Eventually, a more block script is written down. But at least this readable.)


White journal.

This. Is a thing. I guess.

Strange.

Like this script.

Strange.

One more thing. To get. Used to.

Relationship Note on Sparte

Still training people, and now an Officer. I am happy that he has come so far. Still, I wonder if he has reigned in some things. Seems to like maps now. I like maps too. They are nice!
