Whomever thought it would be simply hilarious to book a healing appointment for one 'Hugh Jabosoms', thank you for that sterling waste of my time.

I don't suppose anyone needs a draught for curing the measles? I've already mixed it.

[Mages Guild]

By request, I will be holding a remedial class on Poisona, Vox, and other starting-level medical spells. Scholars and younger mages, please let me know if you are interested and what days would fit most easily into your schedules. This is for spells that cure specific afflictions, not generalized Cure spells.

[Siana]

Alas, I am once again unable to join you at the reported crime scene, but I hope you might indulge me with another memstone, should you find anything of note. My apologies for my unfortunate schedule these last months; I believe I should be more available come next week.

[Ophion]

I would like to speak to you regarding a matter of mentorship. Might you be willing to consider a student in the near future?

[Kiernan]

Thank you again for your assistance the other day. Would you be interested in hiring on to future outings of this nature?

[Riyeko]

I believe Quiz may miss you and Ratchet. He has been meowing most insistently at the bowl you left in my quarters the last time you were here a few weeks ago. Perhaps I can tempt you two into a visit with ohagi? It is nearly the season for them.

[Ladies Who Lunch]

My apologies for being so absent these last months. This week is likely to be more of the same, but perhaps next Sunday, Virgo 17, we might meet after mass? I have missed your company.

[Pyr & Sky]

[…] You will both find packed lunches in your respective rooms when you return there today. I was told upon my visit early this morning that you were already at training. It appears you are working quite hard.

[Penelope]
[[OOC: after this.]]

I believe I may owe you an apology.

I have recently been considering the possibility of forming a book club. It would perhaps be a weekly affair, possibly a weekend one, where we could come together and discuss favorite books or recommend some. One possibility I thought of was pairing up and exchanging books once every two or three weeks, but as a surprise. And perhaps having a theme each month? A different genre, author, or series of books, something like that. There could be baked goods as well, and I could provide tea.

If enough people are interested, we could hold it within the Tower, but if this isn't possible, perhaps a local book shop?

[ MG. ]
Would anyone be available to help me practice my Protect and possibly begin Shell? My mentor is not feeling well as of late.

This is just a brief study break! I'm not procrastinating at all, I swear!

Quen's List of Gift Ideas To Celebrate Making Class
just in case you want to get me something

1. A hug! Hugs are free.
   
2. A kiss! From certain people only, though. Tongue optional.
   
3. Mage Robes! Are black mage robes cool? Even if they're not though I can't wear scholar robes anymore.
   
4. A staff! I could buy this myself. I still have money left over from the battles at the docks and in the Tenements. They can get pretty expensive though so I would appreciate the help.
   
5. You could preorder me the next Violet Saint Clair book! Or any book. As long as it's not spell theory.
   
6. Candy! Sweets! Cupcakes! Anything like that!
   
7. Anything with an interesting taste/smell/feel/sound!
   
8. You could also help me move to the third floor~

Hey. How was the ball? ♥

[MoFa]
Hey, girl! How are you? I feel like it's been forever since we talked!

I don't know why I thought cooping myself up for two weeks to study would be a good idea! It hasn't even been one week yet and I'm already considering a jailbreak.

Here's a friendly hint to all you aspiring corsairs out there: don't approach someone looking for work if you don't understand basic nautical terms. I certainly don't expect everyone to know what a lazaret is, but port and starboard? Come now! You're wasting both my time and your own.

[ FRIENDS: APPLY LIBERALLY. ]
This same young up and coming master of the skies then proceeded to call me old. I think it's time for me to look into early retirement, clearly.

[ ARI, DAMIA, & CHARITY. ]
Old! Perhaps I'm being a bit too vain, but I've never actually thought of myself as old until this recent birthday. Am I being crazy? My parents were married by the time they were my age.

[ MILES. ]
I need to know when you need me, darling.

[ CIAN. ]
How often can I find you at the Blue Bear, dear? I hate going down there if I don't have something to look forward to.

[Pyr]

How is your punishment training progressing?

[...] I did not expect to see you at the ball this past weekend. What were you doing th Did you enjoy yourself?

[Ridley]

I very much enjoyed our outing on Sunday afternoon. [...] Is Lysa's recovery progressing well?

[Quenten]

Your class exam is next week, is it not? I do not wish to distract from your study, but best of luck to you.

[Morgayne]

Would you like to spar this week at our regular time? [.............................................................] If you wish, I can bring you a slice of quiche to sample.

[Storm]

It is a relief that the ball is over with I thought I saw you dancing with I hope your training with the Korporal continues to progress well. Have you had the opportunity to read anything new recently?

[Theo]

I acquitted myself [...] better than usual in a practice spar yesterday thanks to the block you demonstrated for me last week. I have also made an adequate

[Drake]

Do you have any particular preferences

For the record, once already wasn't funny.

[ KIERNAN. ]
[.....] It's come to my attention that I have absolutely no idea what to put on a bucket list. Every time I think of something, it sounds ridiculous and unrealistic so I cross it out. By the time I think of anything and commit to it, I'll fall to my death off Amarant or something equally gruesome before I get around to doing it.

[ QUEN. ]
You better be studying hard, you.

[ CONAN. ]
Around later today?

I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to those who wished me well today, and those I spent the day with. Please know that I feel most grateful for knowing all of you. And happiest of birthdays to Darius.

[ CY. ]
Thank you very much for the book. I was not expecting it

[ KIERNAN & FELICITY. ]
It was a pleasure to meet you on Wednesday. Thank you for your aid.

[ KIERNAN. ]
How is your hand?

[ JULIETTE. ]
[....] I have been wondering, would you like to have lunch with me one day, if your schedule should allow it?

[ SLEEPOVER GANG -1. ]
I [...] was very surprised to learn of Stone's departure.

Happy birthday to my brother Darius~ A quarter century! He's getting so old! ♥


[Darius.]
I'm sorry I've been kind of a brat this year. You're always there for me and I love you very, very much and I'm grateful every day that I have such a great brother. I hope you have a wonderful birthday and I can't wait to see you later today.


[Ridley.]
Happy birthday, sweetie!!


[Friends.]
For the next two weeks I intend to lock myself in the tower and study every waking moment of every day. If you really need me you can get a hold of me, but I can't do any more social things until after my test. I will miss all of you lovely people so much ♥ but I go into my cocoon as a scholar and (Faram willing!) I will emerge a beautiful black mage! And then we can all hang out again.

See you on Virgo 16!

Mama said Stone left something for us at the store. I can't make it before tomorrow but feel free to drop by and pick it up if you have time! And let me know what it is!

[ Public ]

after a long month of waiting, baker's dozen is finally back and open for business! come visit me while i work, alright? missed seeing all of you stuff your faces.

[ DIVINA. ]

For the record, being bedridden is awful, and boring.

[ SIDEQUESTERS, minus nate & zach. ]
How are you all doing?

[ NATE. ]
I hope you're feeling much better than I am. [.......] Do you have a favorite food, by the way?

[ ZACHEUS. ]
Are you doing any better? [....] About my Ranger inquiries -- you don't have to worry about that for now. I'm happy to wait until we're both feeling healthy.

[ MERRI & QUEN. ]
We may need to postpone our training session. I don't think we ever set a date, but I'm not allowed in the training yard for another week. But if you wanted to come meet my sister's cat, Quenten, you're more than welcome to visit while my mother side-eyes me every time I leave the room.

If anyone wants to would like to explain to me why my dog is missing a chunk of her fur from when we were out together, I am here all day, on the edge of my seat awaiting the answer. I will chase you in and out of the Tenements if I have to.

Faram, I hate talking like this. It sounds like I have a large pole up

[ KIERNAN. ]
So, babysitting scholars. Fun?

hi love. do you have any books on chocobos?

hi hello are you busy today

i mean i know youre a councilwoman n everything so presumably youre really busy like, but still

[NATE]
hi mate -- you're the machinist from earlier, yeh?

This is somewhat much in advance, but I was hoping, if you all [...] would like to help me, that this could reach you before something else is scheduled. Unless it is of importance, in which case you needn't worry.

[.....] I was hoping wondering if you would all like to spend my birthday with me. My mother and I had some customs we would do to celebrate it, and I thought, if you weren't otherwise occupied, I could do some of them with you. It wouldn't need to be the entire day, only lunch and part of the afternoon.

[ QUEN, MORGAYNE, JULI, STONE. ]
I look forward to tomorrow. Should I bring anything?

[ RENE. ]
Do you know how to make crepes?

It was really fun spending time with so many of you today at the beach. It's been too long since we just had a holiday!

I would love to hear everyone's favorite thing that you saw, touched, smelled, tasted, or heard today, if you care to share~

[Mages Guild]
So for the written exam, I'm gonna need a scribe. Usually when I took written tests for classes as a scholar, they assigned an older student who had already taken and passed that class to scribe for me. I don't know how they do it for such a big and important exam like the Black Mage exam. Does anyone know? I'm not sure how long it's been since there was a blind mage before me.

Citizens of Emillion,

Tomorrow, as some of you may be aware, a group of our finest mages have offered to set, and maintain - for the day - a section of palings around a stretch of the beach for the enjoyment of all who wish to partake in swimming or other beach based summer activities.

We hope this will assist in alleviating some of the recent tension that may have cropped up amongst the current populace, and please, do feel free to approach any paling recontructionist mage that may be available during the day if there are any questions, or concerns. You will be able to find them by the rich orange sashes they will be wearing throughout the day.

Kind Regards,
Vivian Xi
Sage


[MAGES GUILD.]

If you wish to assist the current group of volunteers report to the front desk of the first floor at 0900 tomorrow morning to obtain instruction, and appropriate identification sash if you will continue to help throughout the day. Currently, the greatest need is for more experienced mages to assist with the arrangement of the palings.

I was Would you I apologize for reaching out so late, and if you are I was wondering if I would be able to take you up on your offer to talk today, any time you aren't preoccupied. On a different note, what do you think Darius would like for his birthday? I'd like to get him something.

[ SLEEPOVER GANG. ]
Has a date been decided? If anyone else was invited, please feel free to include them.

[.....] Drake is [...] really sorry to have to do this, but his party is canceled tonight. He

Ari reminded me that I should tell you that I [...] thought you should know that Drake had an accident on a hoverbike, and he's fine! He is! But he'll need to rest for a couple of days. But he might still try to He might be better by Monday but just in case!

has anyone heard anything concrete about the supposed mysterious healer in the tenements? whispers of the man's generosity and charisma have even trickled up to the nobles district. one of my mother's maids swears she heard from a cousin of a friend that the man is some sort of prophet. too bad no one seems to have a name for this prophet -- i'd quite like to meet so unfailingly altruistic!

[ THIEVES GUILD. ]
personally, i think it all sounds like the work of a man with a long con up of his sleeve.
