I missed a deadline.
For the first time in five years, I've missed a deadline on a commission.
There is no excuse. Perhaps I should close my doors until this ... this ...
... is all over. I -clearly- can't split my attention.
Gods I am so mortified. I -missed- a deadline.

Relationship Note on Bethany
Bethany Mercier! A message from Bethany Mercier! I can't believe it, my favorite Mercier is back in the city (I'm sorry, Silas, you know the truth now-).
This is the best news I've heard in weeks. I'm so very happy! My face hurts from the smiling!
I regret -nothing-!
Bethany! Welcome back, my darling!

Your skull is very nice. I can see why someone would like it. It's a good shape.

Relationship Note on Morrighan
[there's a lot of words here, all of them scribbled or scratched out, about half a page's worth.]
[Another word. Looks like a name. Actually, it looks like a lot of names.]

Sometimes it's good to take a break from work and breathe. I've woken up one too many times this week drooling at my desk, my shoulders feel like they're corded, over-worked iron brittle and pitted beneath the skin, and my neck... Ugh.
Going to the Hart tends to be a break in that tension. It doesn't help the knots in my muscles nor alleviate my work load, but it's a bit like getting a second wind. I may need to ask a friend for help, thankfully I know a few strong blacksmiths. Ida, I'm looking at you.
I'm wondering if Whisper House might not have someone I can pay for a massage.

Relationship Note on Aureth
I don't know if I really want to know how my tolerance of you directly relates to your mother, and how much this makes me like her or have many of her fine qualities simply from physical and emotional proximity. I mean, I know it's there, I respect that her influence has made me both understand and accept you in ways some do not, but...
... yes, I think I'm going to leave that be.

Relationship Note on Aureth
Hey, the woman helped raised Ianthe and I. That I can put up with you says how much of an influence she had on us.
That being said ... she was pretty amazing. I covet the pieces I have from her, she made one outfit just for me and I am always looking for an excuse to wear it.

Relationship Note on Alarie
I have a letter from her.
She's fine and well and off on her adventures with her little one. I'll admit, it was a relief even though I'm sad to see her leave, her sass and feisty nature reminded me so much of my near-mother, Myrinda. Piss and vinegar with an underlying sweetness.
She would fuss over me and make sure I was doing well, and then proceed to tell me I should get laid. Alarie, I mean, but Myri did that too.
Ah, Alarie. I'm glad you're safe but I do miss you so.

There is nothing worse than being at the height of productivity and getting waylaid by a cold. I'm writing this with my own hand because the scholar couldn't understand a word I said, my head is filled with fluids and I sound like, and I quote, 'a mallard on the verge of puberty'.
So after this, I'm putting an order through to the closest inn for an ongoing twice-daily delivery of soup and tea. And I'm going to find that enormous bottle of whisky Morrighan gave me to add to said tea, until it's gone and I have to go digging for another.
Also blankets. I need more blankets. And I'm too tired to climb my stairs to my bed so I'm camping out on my divan in front of the fireplace. And Mongoose is getting cuddled to death, though she doesn't seem to mind. Beast is the third best bed-warmer I've had, all she has to do is spoon me.
-don't get your panties in a twist, scholar, I'm not going to infect you. Just write the damn thing.

It's all fun and games until someone takes it in the ear.
Please note that the scholars may take some time preparing your journal for others to read.
