Relationship Note on Alis

Is there really a need to twist words like this? If so, you may as well say them to my face rather than moving across the edge in other ways. I fucking hate dragging dirty disputes into the public view, but this one needs to be clarified.

The exact words used, in reference to an item that your brother passed on were, "He gave it to her without a thought to anyone else.". I made this statement while you were implying what /you/ wanted done with this item. The implication was not that your brother didn't love you enough, nor that your brother didn't think of you, nor anything because I didn't know the man. What I was getting across was "The man made his choice, respect his choice". I did not think it worth disputing how a man's final wishes should be handled.

If you take problem or offense to me, say it to my face. Don't parade it out here for everyone else to see so we can make a big dramatic show of it. It ain't mature and it ain't becoming of someone in your station to speak about the ones you call allies underhandedly like this. It's a misunderstanding and we can move passed it.

Relationship Note on Katarina

Squall should be a boy? Perhaps the babe is, and perhaps the babe is not. I am surprised my wife did not inform you, as she has informed me, that she believes that Squall is a boy. I believe that... we shall see. Of course, watch, Reigna will be right...

In case anyone wonders, implying my dead brother didn't love his living siblings enough to leave something for them in his will... I will challenge the next person that does so. Without hesitation.

Master Voss, you might benefit from a bit more Faith instruction.

Not to say that certain members of the Faith wouldn't be tempted to make similar remarks regarding the Thirteenth's (and the Sentinel's) all-seeing natures. Definitely not me though.

Relationship Note on Reigna

My apologies, Countess.

I hope you'll forgive my attempts at humour, poor as they were. Some of us have more pressing matters occupying our thoughts, we might forget how serious and dire a topic this is for those with (perhaps) more idle time to ponder the ethereal.

As always, I bow to the wisdom of my betters. I'll endeavor to keep my wit aimed at less sensitive topics, perhaps.

Of course He knows all and sees all. Why, only a fool would argue against that!

I'm going to have to have words with my dear uncle. That apple could have done a lot more harm than it did. ...At least my costume seemed to be well-received, even if no one else showed up in one. And my uncle doesn't count. He always looks like that.

Relationship Note on Derovai

The gods all watch over us, Goodman Voss. That is what Brother Driskell was speaking of. The Thirteenth God, He of Reflections. Granted he does not get as much overt worship in the Oathlands as he seems to garner in the Lyceum, but he was confirmed into the Pantheon and he has a place on most altars. He is an uncomfortable god for some, but his eyes, like all gods are on us. We are their instruments and our feet walk the paths they set before us.

Relationship Note on Mira

I met Mira Matessi last night at the Harlequin's party, the Grayhope lawyer on retainer. While the nobles flirted around the fortune teller, we went through the Maze of Mirrors.

Mira had one of those apples that loosen the tongue. I think she was embarrassed the next morning at the stuff she said, but I thought it was delightful. The party was about dropping your guard! Mira definitely did that and none would hold it against her.

Relationship Note on Driskell

We're all watched and our secrets known? Well, that's interesting.

If you have the address for this omniscient, all-knowing fellow, could you happen to let him know I'd like a chat?

There's a few questions I'd like to run by him. Work-related, you understand.

Really, this is sillier than all those people telling me 'all the best detectives wear caps' lately. Has someone slipped something into the city water supply since last time I was here?

Relationship Note on Isabetta

I think she thinks I don't like her, when the exact opposite is true. But my fondness sometimes comes with a terrible, terrible price.

That sounded far more ominous than I'd intended it to be.

I just meant that hangovers are imminent.

One of the most enjoyable evenings I've had. There must be some Lycene in me. That fortune teller, though. Do I owe anyone any favors I can't recall?

Princess Katarina, you are always welcome in Keaton Hall. I look forward to you meeting your namesake. She, like you, always makes me smile and I do believe she will grow to be full of charm, just like you.

Relationship Note on Reigna

I cannot wait for the opportunity to meet this little survivor. The way you talk about her, I know that she will have us all wrapped around her finger as Mia and Ellara. So many young ladies and princesses that I have been blessed to watch grow, but now I cannot wait for a boy. Squall should be a boy.

It is amazing to watch Kata grow. I wish I knew how old she is, or what her birthday was. Eliza, the wet nurse I found for Kata, and I agree that she is likely six or seven months old, despite her petite size. She has been trying to crawl, pushing herself up on those still skinny little arms. She has not succeeded yet, but she likely will, soon enough. I see how much she's grown in the time we've had her and I can just picture what it will be like when Squall is finally here.

In other news, Kael has invited my sister Eleanor to come visit and stay with us through the birth of Squall. I admit, I a little nervous. Eleanor is likely the sister I am closest to, but I have not seen her in quite a long time. Eleanor is quite different than I am, but we always got on well enough. Of anyone, she reminds me of Lady Tessa Moore. I tremble to think of the hijinxs the pair of them would unleash upon the city of Arx.

Mirrormasks are supposed to make people uncomfortable. They force you to reflect, literally, on things you'd rather not. I rather like his turn of phrase. Good reminder that someone, always, somewhere, can see us.

Relationship Note on Mae

What. Just. Happened.

So at the party I met a girl named Mae, or Margery, to be honest I'm not sure, but she seems to prefer Mae and I will be definitely acquis her request.

I do not think I have had quite such a meeting as this one.

I cannot say if it was good, bad, great, horrible, scary? A lot of different things going through my head. Perhaps tomorrow I will awaken and learn that it was all a dream, it had that sort of quality.

Perhaps this was a joke Talen or Eleyna were playing on me, if so, bravo my dearests, this was truly a bizarre, unique and inexplicable experience. Never have I ever had such a party as this.

Also that fortune teller.

That damnable fortune teller..

Each fortune she gave was more cryptic than the last and even still I cannot get them out of my head despite having forgotten the words, which were probably unimportant because they didn't make sense. I thought the gentry adept at spewing fourth words with no meaning, weaving pretty sentences to make themselves sound smart while actually saying nothing but, but this fortune teller! She used words to create an air of mystery that would confound the best wordsmith and oh how I wish I could put them in a room together to.. duke it out, a brawl of flowery soliloquy.

But the worst part is I am most certain she a master at my own game, how I entertain to frustrate minds for amusement this fortune teller did so to me with a level of artistry I could not compare.

And this beyond all else was unforgivable!
