Relationship Note on Mae
It has come to my attention that something was written in the whites upon which I would be remiss not to comment.
Congratulations to Princess Agatha Redrain for her victory in the darts tournament!

Peanut would make such a handsome and good Archlector! Oh, yes he would. What a well-behaved boy. If you see Archlector Aleksei's dog today, reader, please give him all my love and listen carefully to his 'awooo' sermon. It's very deep.

I can state with full confidence that I have witnessed Count Duarte Amadeo do things.
I can also state with full confidence that my dog makes plenty of choices, some more aggravating and/or dangerous to my health than others.

I thought myself incapable of being greatly surprised by the actions of "normal" people anymore. I was wrong.
Thank you.

Relationship Note on Belladonna
On the matter of Count Duarte Amadeo, I was asked by Duchess Belladonna Pravus what Duarte is responsible for, and if there's any proof.
The matter is particularly curious because my instincts tell me that Count Duarte has done something in his life. That, through out all of it, there is at least one singular choice that he made that he is responsible for. I would imagine, for instance, that being ennobled is not something that was done to him without his consent. That it was, a choice he made, for which he is responsible. As for proof, I would like to submit to the scholars the fact that I keep writing "Count" in front of Duarte Amadeo.
Yet, as I sit here and write, I can't help but question the very reality of all of this. Perhaps Duarte's ennoblement was done TO him. Perhaps it's proof of nothing at all! Perhaps Duchess Belladonna is correct, and Count Duarte is not responsible for anything. Or, at the least, there's no proof that his deeds are his own.
But I think we'll need to pull the Archlector of Choice into the mix, to determine if the good Count has free will or not.
Or, is it the Archlector of Petrichor, to inform us if puppy dogs can choose?

It is too late for it. I have bought them all. And some wonderful breeches. Perhaps I should have a robe made to go with them. I'm told by my wife such things are appropriate.

For the strange white records, I support? No that isn't the right word. Lift up? No, that's not right either. It's more like ... it's like support but it's more official. Yes, endorse.
For the strange white records, I endorse the words of Marquessa Dominique Wyrmguard regarding the events of the Grotto this morning. I think there is a misunderstanding that the duel is being fought on my behalf or in my honor. This is incorrect. If I wish to fight someone, I will tear their eyes from their skulls with my own fingers.
You see Vano? It's not my fault this time.

I pose to you another question, Mistress Culler.
What has he done to be held responsible for, and is there proof?

Dear Scholars,
Today, someone has written that Count Duarte Amadeo would be "fully responsible for what happens" to himself.
I question, dear scholars, if Count Duarte has ever been partially responsible for what happens to himself, let alone fully. Perhaps if one of you all have time, you could investigate?

Oh a happy day, indeed.
Though I believe it is your knowing I WON'T do anything silly or stupid that compelled your acceptance of my invite.
I shall pick you up an hour beforehand - in the colloquial sense.

I'm spending most of the day preparing for my trip to Setarco. I don't like leaving the city but with the War, there's potential impact on the silk trade that I'd like to oversee, and maybe even offer help with.
It's easy to forget that -my- Crafters Guild isn't the -only- one, until certain situations occur that requires one or the other or all of them to reach out in droves. I suspect I'll never get used to it, the intricacies of trade, but then I hope I don't either. It's much too fascinating, a different kind of puzzle to solve.
If you've need of me between now and a few days hence [OOC: I leave Saturday for about a week, with intermittent possible log ins from the road], I suggest working your way into my schedule now.

All this exciting nonsense today quite reminded of something.
Mistress Mirari, would you care to attend the Pravus Spring Ball with me?
I'd ask in person but I am shy.

It was not intended to be subtle. I am not, even slightly, a subtle man. Many parties have been crude and pithy about something that is a formal declaration and time-honored tradition.
