Relationship Note on Joscelin
She also sewed the ribbons for the top three winners, which I, personally, think are darling and will love forever and ever.

The are other, cheaper alternatives for learning how to swing a sword or dodge a blow, though I surely won't list them here.
The new warlord seems to be looking towards the future with eyes no longer blinkered. I can only hope the gods set him on a sure path, so that he might not go through life sewing wanton destruction and misery, of which so many are capable.

Oh, I've done so many wrong things. Spoken the wrong things. Pushed people away and shut myself up like a spiky little hedgehog curled up into a ball. Afraid. Too many blushes and blind judgements. I'm not a shrinking violet anymore.
I thought about it, about Nadia, and I'm writing this down to get it out and be done. I can't be caught up in my own thoughts like I'm still a Lady. I'm not. I have other important responsibilities, other complicated problems that affect more than just me. I can't be self-involved on the level I was --
I'm not sure how long it's going to take to change. But I'm choosing to start today.

It may truly happen. My own shop, my own (well, not entirely my own, no) plan to see that the shop becomes popular, that MY work becomes popular.
It's all I've wanted for so very, very long, that I am still half shocked at the possibilities.

I know what doesn't help sometimes. I know that when loss and pain are raw and fresh, anything said to you, no matter how wise and well-meaning, sounds trite and insulting. But it helped me, later. When the first shock had faded and I was wondering: What is left to me now?
Whenever anything ends, something else begins. When something is lost, something is, also, gained. The Goddess of Death, the Queen of Endings, is also the Mother of New Beginnings, ushering new souls into the world.
That doesn't mean we shouldn't grieve. When the old gives way to the new, the world changes and nothing will ever be the same. It's natural and normal to grieve what was lost. Nor does it ever mean we should become complacent about the cycle of loss and gain, because a new beginning is an opportunity, not a guarantee. It is what we make of it.
But when other lives end--remember, ours does not. It is our chance to build something new.
This helped me immensely. This is why I became one of Death's disciples.
I only hope, in time, it will help others, too.

I finished decorating my shop today, and opened the doors for the first time.
Hanging the sigil of Jayus on the wall, and then opening the door to let in the fresh air of the square was quite the experience for me. It really made me feel how far I've come from begging for food on a Southport street corner. The Malvici have given me everything, with the aid of my skill, and Jayus.
I won't let any of those things down.

Things playing in shadows are fucking with us constantly. It's damn annoying and dreary as anything to listen to every new story of death and betrayal. Dramatic, at least.
Bah, at least my mask won best in show.

I am concerned that you're also writing about rashes, though. Especially in conjunction with were-rats and alleys in the Lower Boroughs. Please consult a Mercy about such things, for I want no part of it!
This is loving advice.

Someone please send a physician willing to replace my fragile lungs. If I cough one more time, I will rip them out myself.

Also, that's where we all first met I think. Killing plague rats. That's weird.

Relationship Note on Calaudrin
Calaudrin Estardes was referring to me when he brought up threesomes. This is because Esoka and I had discussed them once upon a time, but he did not want to partake. Given his writing about rashes, I'm starting to think perhaps that was just as well. Maybe he was looking out for me. That would definitely be in the man's upstanding, oh-so-lawful character... not wanting to spread rashes to others.
I know he and I have had a rocky relationship these past months, but recently he wrapped his arms around me so very tightly, I know there are still deeper feelings inside him. Perhaps some day he will let them go and share them with everyone. Why can our passion not be sung throughout eternity in the archives?
I do wonder if his crotch is still sore after our time together in that alley.
(Okay, that last part is a bit vague, but people don't want to read *all* the details, now do they? Be honest.)
