When I asked what I should be writing in my journals, I was told to share tidbits of my life so they may be documented. So what can I say that I haven't already mentioned? I'm just a small town girl, living in a crazy world. Sometimes I wish to take the midnight carriage to anywhere...
Hey, you know what, that almost sounds poetic! That could even be a song one day.

Relationship Note on Max
You chose to plot a course round the atavistic sargassum that birth put at your bow. I choose to disbelieve the cynical rumors that follow in your wake.

Relationship Note on Max
My brother. A pain in the ass. Now he is gone. One of my family is dead. Now, I only have Lady... Marquessa Ariel and Malik as family. Whatever he may have done, I will assure he is honored as a pirate deserves.

I had a man take me out to a fancy dinner and offer me what my heart truly desired, namely, high quality weaponry and revenge.

I don't make it a point to write too many journals. Truth be told, I spend WAY too many hours in the forge but it's completely worth it. I'm not completely oblivious to the news of the world today but I'm just thankful for my own little sanctuary of fire. I've got everything I need, I lead a very simply life. What more does a girl need than metal, a hot guy, and alcohol?

There are a number of you, who will remain nameless, who have found humor in making faces at me in long-winded meetings. Faces of boredom, disgust, shock, awe, and any other gesture one might imagine making behind the back of an all too practiced orator on an endless string of information.
To those of you I say... you won't break me. I won't crack. I refuse to smile. Good luck.

No word can properly express what I am feeling and thinking. And so, until I find them I shall go on.
I am told this may not be wise, however at the moment I simply have no more words.

You blew it up! Ah, damn you!
Well, no, in all truth, I've no idea what happened to the Barony of Blackshore. There was a Thrax Council on the matter of the Baron there, Count Max, and their potential treasonous collusions either with the Gyre or other foul forces. I don't know if I full believe Max a traitor, even if he was obviously an ambitious sort of man. But at the very least, it seems clear someone there was dealing with powers greater than they, and suffered for it.
Needless to say, the destruction of the island made the debate of the meeting mostly moot, save for some matters of succession. The whole thing also reminded me of some of the benefits of not being in charge, as it looked a tedious mess. Up until the explosion part.

Duchess Belladonna Pravus and Prince Abbas Thrax just hosted the most darling "Naval Battle" in the Duchess' private pool. Everyone chose teams and manned a small rowboat, it was absolutely darling. What's more, is that the event was able to raise 157,000 silver for the Tragedy Orphanage in the Boroughs. Well done to everyone!!

Relationship Note on Ferrando
I'm no sailor, and neither is Master Ferrando, but I suppose we didn't do too poorly for ourselves in the pool. Didn't flip our own boat over and that's a victory. I reckon we could commandeer a row boat and call it a fleet if there's any call for it. I think for being a proper captain I ought to know the names of more sea birds and what the front end and the butt end of a boat is called and other such watery wisdom, but there's time for it.
Also, rum and chocolate doesn't go too poorly together.

Relationship Note on Max
Another one of my family dead.
My cousin, dying and leaving me - how fate laughs at foolish dreams.
I had thought that it couldn't hurt any longer, but I am not so sure I believe that now.
What can we do other than try and keep the sails full.
No tears at our wake.

Relationship Note on Samantha
Marquesa Samantha was of great help to me as my agent in negotiating my marriage alliance with House Grayson, a woman of poise and good sense, who knows when to let her hair down. I'm so glad she was willing to help me out, because it would have been so odd to negotiate on my own behalf as a Voice of my House.
Thank you so much, my lady, for all your help. I consider you a true friend of my heart and always shall.

Relationship Note on Cara
Cara Grayson is a lady of both grace and sensibility, and I am over the moon to be joining her family.
She has reasonable plans for the rearing of her children, and I look forward to seeing how Tiber grows alongside them in the bonds of good fellowship, as the ward of their family.
She delighted me by reaching out to me as a one-day future cousin, and I am so happy to call her friend, and look forward to seeing her darling daughters grow.
Seriously, so cute.

Relationship Note on Ainsley
We are getting married in this autumn.
I'm still having a hard time believing it. I have to start figuring out what to write in my vows. Probably not just 'I swear to protect you from your own terribleness.'

I predicted that a few weeks would pass, and it would be easy to, again, struggle against the petty irritations and stupidities of the world.
And I was right.
But still: life goes on. Each breath is precious. We continue. We go on.
Some of us go on being stupid. But isn't it refreshing how much energy we have for stupid shit, so near to our salvation?
Praise be to Lagoma for how quickly we adjust to our new normal.

Relationship Note on Juliet
I wish I could write about Lady Juliet with as much grace and wit as she deserves, but I've never been very good with words. All I can say is this:
She was one of the bravest people I know, and I admired her bravery from the very start. She felt with her whole heart, with a fullness and a ferocity that daunted and inspired me. Every day, I will remember that bravery. Every day, I will strive to meet it.
