Relationship Note on Ian
Book,
It seems weird for me to write such, but I guess it is common place, and if our history is to be preserved I suppose this is a necessary step in keeping it. I must say, few people have impressed me as much as Lord Ian Kennex, be it his companionship in drinking, his wise discussions on strategy, or his amazing skill in combat, and I do mean amazing, the man is a great friend to have.
I just hope he forgives inhaling whiskey, my fault! Smiling pigs do catch people off guard.

Indeed. Wetnurses are lovely. No biting I am told. Not for me.

There are those people you simply know at first meeting that they are going to have a part in your life. Even if they don't want to know it themselves.

It took you long enough, I was starting to think that you weren't going to ever catch up.

Being on this side of the birthing process, I didn't realize how traumatizing it could be. Catching babies is no joke, and they come out all gross and -not- pink and for a little bit, you wonder if your sister didn't give birth to a squalling, cheese-coated lamb. But this wasn't the case, and I have two perfectly adorable baby nieces. Eleyna's tits are going to be as sore as my ass after rearranging Leta's clothes, and -she- will have no let up I'm sure. Unless she has a wet nurse, which... Gods, I'd have loved that when I had my cubs. Can you imagine? Being able to sleep the whole night while someone else grabs your baby and feeds them, and you can sleep the whole night? I mean sleeping the whole. The WHOLE night.

Book,
It has occurred to me that I may have a bit of a reputation for having a good time. I must admit there are worse things to be known for! I find a strange delight in entertaining others and myself, after all, if we die soon, we might as well live a little now!
Between all of the meetings, the drills, talks of strategy, bickering and drinking, it's nice to lose yourself in laughter, good for the soul! Perhaps it is part of my charitable nature, who knows!
A word of wisdom, never take yourself too seriously. Seriously, do not do such, it helps no one and often burns bridges.

So much time spend with the Silent Reflections last week, and now I'm traveling all across The Crownlands to garner support for my liege. Will there ever be a respite I wonder? I hardly have time for managing my house. Thankfully Ariel is doing well to pick up the slack.

Apparently, hairpins are highly sought after, if only for decorative purposes. I've got a number of ideas that I think I'll craft, to see if there's interest in them. The ones I've made so far have sold without complaint, or haggle, and have come with a bonus in some cases. Seems better than wasting metal on tools and weapons people don't want, anyhow.

Relationship Note on Avaline
My older sister returns to the city.
It brings back memories of her playing commander and all of us being tiny, toddler soldiers.
I still remember how hard Apollis cried when I punched him with the hilt of my wooden sword.

Attended the Glittering Gala, which in itself was an experience - if only for the sheer number of people, and the grand effort put into the displays for all to see. I tried my hand at a gambling game - and lost, but it was fun all the same. And my numbers were not called for the raffle, which is perhaps unsurprising.
Turns out it was a wedding reception for Lady Monique and Lord Corban; which was likely a far more festive way to go about things, though it seemed not all were pleased by the revelation.
The challenge issued by Lady Sorrel was surprising, but proper, from what I heard after. Though the attempt to continue after apology was issued was, perhaps, unwarranted. I don't pretend to know her reasons, but she has a strong reputation for being very skilled with her blade. A shame she likely needs not another.

I went to a party, on my own, without needing to be coerced. I saw people that I was glad to see. And now I have a fancy bottle of wine. Yes, my brother is in fact a ham. He's also a pretty good dancer, and damn lucky. Congrats to he, and Saedrus.

For you, and for them, I'll do anything. It is, after all, the only thing that matters. Family.

Relationship Note on Marius
"I value you so much that I'm not willing to let you feel pushed out of the role. I value you so much that I'm going to affirm your role as Voice and the immense contributions you've made, no matter how many messengers I get butting into my business and telling me I should remove you as Voice. I value you so much that I almost told Corban he can't marry you because I knew you'd leave for Telmar, but then I remembered how much I love you and how I wouldn't stand in the way of your happiness in order to keep you as Greenmarch and marry you to someone else for merely political gain."
This is, Scholar, an example of the great man my brother is, in case people have ever doubted it. I record it here, so there can never be uncertainty.

I'm pretty sure I used up whatever luck I had left last night. I'm in for many months of stubbed toes in the mornings. So it's a good thing I have these boots!

My good Lady Monique Telmar (how good that feels to write publicly now) has gone through and thanked all who need thanking. As with so many things, the Glittering Gala was the culmination of efforts of so many different people. I am grateful to all of them.
I am grateful most of all to Marquis Marius Greenmarch who agreed to part with his beloved sister from his beloved House to join us in House Telmar. Our alliance is deeper for it. And my life much happier.

Low key and quiet, an auction. Hmmm. Perhaps some sort of penalty for breaking the silence? Or a contest to see who can keep their silence longest?
There would need to be music, of course. It might get rather alarmingly silent otherwise.
Oh! I saw you at the gala, and while we may not have met, you are a most energetic hostess! Thank you for all you and yours did for such a lovely event.

I am just happy you tolerate me reading to your stomach and trying to read all the parts in amusing voices, and considering my only voices are my 'Duke Arn impersonation' and a slight falsetto that I have to alternate between I am quite surprised you haven't kicked me out yet.

To Lady Monique Telmar and Lord Corban Telmar,
I offer forth my heartfelt congratulations to you both. I admit that my wife and I knew it was only a matter of time, but we are pleased to see that it was such a short time indeed.
May you walk together with hands clasped always.
