Are things always so [...] excited in Emillion?

Out of the city for the weekend. Save important messages until after.

I'm going to hold a low-budget auction for everyone with tight purse strings. Maybe we won't raise as much money for the docks not that is any reason anyone actually we but don't tell me you can't benefit from an apple core, starting bid 20 gil!! It's not just any apple core, it's one that the king possibly ate with his actual teeth and lips so it's practically blessed, isn't it? Not that I know much about that kind of thing, pardon me and don't tell the old man. But come on!! Apple cores, maybe a few hair ribbons, a few lucky and well-beloved stuffed toys? Now that's quality.

Jokes aside, sometimes I wish entertainment around this city were a little more on the wallet-friendly side. I don't have gil to throw around to buy dresses for balls I'm never invited to and would never atte and festivals. I think the closest I get to going out these days is dressing up for the farmer's market to bring home some new and exciting root vegetables.

Do you all understand what I am saying? Root vegetables are the highlight of my life. Clearly I need to start taking lessons in something and join a guild. I think I'd make an excellent bard, thank you very much.

Congratulations to me on my first official day of spinsterhood~ ♥

Anyone who would like to join me in celebrating this momentous occasion is invited to the Duckling anytime after eight. I can almost guarantee live music, and the first few rounds will be on me.

[Lille]

You should definitely drag your brother there under any pretense. Drake will be furious with me thrilled, I'm sure.

Well! Just under 12,000 gil brought in yesterday from the date auction alone; another five from the goods auction, and of course any donations from wealthy patrons Jeffries noted at the door. I dare say that was a rousing success, wouldn't you, darlings? Thank you to everyone who turned out!

FILTERED TO RED.

My, my, between your bids on the Countess, Lady Marcos, and myself, you have quite played your hand, my love! A certain fondness for scandalous noblewomen, have we?

FILTERED TO THEO.

Hello, dove.

FILTERED TO SELORIA.

You were quite the busy bee yesterday, darling! Satisfied with your winnings?

To those who were so willing to join us yesterday eve, thank you for your tremendous support. The auction was a rousing success, and I am pleased to know that so many people care [....] about our fair city.

For those who offered their time, do enjoy your dates.

[ Aspel, Guy, Divina ]

It seems I'm to take the three of you out. Please do give me your input. I'd hate for your time with me to be [.....] a bore.

[ Redwald ]

I must say, your tenacity is quite impressive. Please do let me know when you would prefer to cash in your win.

[ Aspel ]

I do hope your birthday was not too much of a bore?

Great showing last night, and thank you to all the lovely people who bid on me~

I've got to wonder, though. Some of those prices were ridiculous. If I had that kind of gil

[ Zacheus ]

Would you Can I buy you a cup of coffee? You don't have to buy my time

[ Ari ]

Don't think I didn't see you wandering around with Aspel~

i suppose there remains little point in hiding any longer --

indeed, i have been spending hours beyond countenance at one genevieve albrecht's residence. it is all a very sordid affair, truly, and i have been in such fits of vapours over its having come to light. alas, how is my pristine reputation ever to survive?

[li/aspel/drake/lille/theo.]

the rumours about gotsham, however.

Now, I am not one for charity auctions, but I must admit that the [...] details of this one certainly piques interest. I cannot say I have ever attended one quite like it before. For very good reason, because it is oddly reminiscent of some sort of sla Is this not a bit like prosti I can only hope it turns out in some [...] good, clean fun, and certainly plenty of funds for the dock restoration effort.

[FILTER: Divina Marcos]

"Good, clean" fun! I warrant you are hoping for nothing of the sort, yes? Especially with Domina and Genevieve running the entire thing. Faram preserve those women, for they do what I cannot.

The flowers are blooming, the birds singing. Isn’t it just a wonderful spring day? The weather looks to be perfect this week for a walk in the park.

Why are most of the men I know just so full of bullshit? Like they live it and breathe it? They're decent people, don't get me wrong. I'm fond of them. But I just have to wonder if they even buy their own crap. If they even know they're doing it.

It just makes me shake my head and wonder, you know?

Is it just me or has it gotten warm lately? I mean, I know I'm hot, but this is ridiculous. Anyone know where I can get something to keep my bedroom cool? I'm not getting enough sleep as it is and falling asleep in the bazaar and now I'm just getting cranky.

Also, anyone want to go on an ice-cream date? I'll buy.

And keep in mind that auction~ You can have a date with me and help out charity at the same time~ Not that some people need to purchase me... I mean

[ FG ]

Anyone know anything about a missing girl? Worked at a flower shop in the Bazaar. Her brother is looking for her. People don't go missing this frequently in town.

[ Duhl ]

Might as well bite the damn bullet. Sir. I wanted to inquire as to how one would go about joining the Council. Please let me know at your earliest convenience.

[ Aspel ]

So, how about that drink? ;)

[ Ari & Chloe ]

I feel like I haven't seen the two of you in ages, darlings. Anything new?

[ Church kid AL? I really should have gotten her name... ]

I just remembered that I have a history book on heretics from the last century. It was pretty dry reading Did you want it?

[ Cy ]

If I buy directly from you, is it cheaper than buying from Cormac? Stingy bastard

[ PUBLIC. ]

The Rising Sun will be flying to Kerwon Friday to pick up a shipment for a client. We'll be returning on Saturday. If there is anything you need from the south, do let me know.

[ THIEVES' GUILD. ]

We could use an extra pair of hands to acquire aforementioned timber, if you catch my drift. It's a special sort of wood, of course, worth a decent sum of coin. Anyone who signs on will receive at least 200.

[ FRIENDS. ]

Shall I pick up souvenirs for any of you? Kitschy 'ancient Viera artifacts,' perhaps?

( SENT TO THE FIGHTERS GUILD HALL, AS PROMISED. )

In an effort to generate donations for the devastation of the docks, there is talks of hosting an auction. I was wondering if there was anyone with an interest in donating their [...] time. It will be a most unusual auction, but one quite worth the effort, and the commitment would be minimal.

You would simply need to stand onstage.

Please do let me know, and I will give you more details.

FILTERED TO NOBILITY/FRIENDS.

Darlings, I think it's about time we chipped in—officially—with the relief efforts. I'm thinking a charity auction, open to whoever anyone who might be so inclined to come, and I'm thinking of putting up about a dozen of last season's couture dresses, among other things. I would so appreciate any donations you all can provide, with all proceeds going right to Lady Cassul the younger's relief fund, of course. Do let me know what you're willing to part with, darlings. I'll have Jeffries put together a bidding list.

I know why what I did was wrong now.
