What with the Harvest Festival beginning tomorrow, I would like to announce a new special at the Duckling: 2 for 1 drinks, and half-price appetizers.

[Special Stock Customers]
Accessories and scrolls are 25% off.

[Audrey]
Have you left the estate?

[Arielle]
I've a job for you.

[Aspel & Magnolia]
Safe travels. Do come back in one piece, would you?

[Pyr]
Good day, Pyr. I was wondering if you would be free for tea on 14 Libra? I will ensure to speak with your mentor so that you are not missed during training.

[Darius]
Good day, Mr Delacreaux. I was wondering if you might be able to help me with something.

[Cian]
Do you happen to know a man by the name Armand Hilt?

I've been thinking. Miles might have been our glorious ringleader, but that doesn't mean we're not independent, free-thinking people who can't do shit by or for themselves. So do we keep heisting on our own terms, or is that it? I can't say I won't be sorry for it to end, if it does.

[ SKY. ]
Consider those acting lessons yet?

[ CIAN. ]
How's business going?

Before you get your panties in a twist, I'm out of there and on my way home. Nothing to be concerned over.

Got all the papers you and your girl could ever want. [...] Sorry to inform you, but rumor says the guy kicked the bucket, though I'm guessing if it's true, you might have heard by now. Still, up to you and yours whether you'll turn his full books over to the EKP - not my business. Some seriously shady shit in there - and big money. Someone will deliver them this afternoon.

[.................................] If you could send him back with your strongest hangover remedy, that would be pretty fucking fantastic.

Week's barely even fucking started and it's just getting better and better.

[ Loch ]

Miles is in custody. Trial starts tomorrow. Fucking careless bastard.


[ Delacreaux ]

Long time no talk. Got a favor to ask.

Guy who gave me that tonberry and fought the dino thing with me. Can you see this?

[ MG. ]
Does [....] anyone have any tea on hand? Like to spare.

[ MAGE TASK FORCE + TOKU, lol remember this exists. ]
Hey. Been a while since we really did anything as a team. I was gonna suggest drinks and shit, but maybe we could train sometime when we're not falling apart at the seams and monsters aren't trying to eat our faces? Like work on our teamwork or whatever for the future. [...] It's just a thought, we don't have to.

Uh [....] Would we have to get permission for that? Sage Councilor?

[ WOLFE. ]
If you're lying in a clinic all fucked up, I'm gonna find you and hit you. [.....] If you're not, how's your Tanglevine? Have you used it in battle yet?

[ CIAN. ]
You ever gonna cash in that favour I owe you, or do I have to wait until it's a good time for you first?

[ FRIENDS. ]
My tailbone still fucking hurts from Sunday. Someone come drink with me tomorrow night, it's fucking miserable to drink alone.

Maybe we ought to rename the Festival of Lions to Looks Like We're Still Not Dead Day? Has a certain ring to it.

[Fee]

Speaking of my excellent luck staying alive in this city, I'm fancying a trip to Anjou in Leo suddenly to see if my luck improves there.

I assume you're going? Didn't you last year?

[Ash]

You still pissed, princess? I'm fine, calm down.

[Siri]

You've been quiet, prophetess. Any trouble?

[Aud]

[.....] Got a little assignment for you, tiny.

finally feel settled at home ♥

[caspar]
are you still dead or when are you going to take me out to lunch? geez!

[cian]
you know siri well, don't you?

[lavitz]
when are you coming over to see the brat? he's getting so big! you won't recognize him when you see him.

[loch]
your shitty attitude aside I was wondering if we could talk business. I was wondering if I could have you build something.

[miles]
have you told anyone about the upcoming job? it's kind of difficult not to tell ari everything...

[ofelia]
i have something i'd like to pursue. i was hoping i could get a hold of you and run some ideas through you. [...] i'm unsure how to proceed.

[rhys]
i really miss you hey!

We need to meet. Somewhere discreet.

Anyone know a good place to learn a spell or two?

[ Cian ]
Clear your calendar from Gemini 24 to Cancer 3.

[ Loch ]
Taking bets on how long it'll take me to convince Ci to go on vacation.

[ Miles ]
How's the wife?

I would like to adjust our arrangement.

I suppose I could get used to being called Captain Ravin. Has a nice ring to it.

[ CIAN. ]
But you don't need to feel beholden to that.

[ CORMAC. ]
As per our arrangement, the Lareine is at your service.

I must admit that with the remodel, I am considering changing the menu at the Duckling. Perhaps introducing a touch more drinks, a course or two. Thoughts?

[ Loch & Audrey ]
The assignment that I had sent you on shortly before the destruction of the city: I have not heard from either of you on the events of that night.

[ Aspel ]
Care to join me for tea this afternoon, or perhaps tomorrow morn? There is a new shop that has recently opened in the Civic district that I should quite like to try.

[ Heron ]
What with the lovely weather, I was thinking of running some errands. Was there anything you were in particular need of?

[ Ofelia ]
I was wondering if perchance you would care to have lunch sometime?

[ Cian ]
A proposition for you, if you are interested.

[ Juliette ]
If you've a moment, I would like to discuss something with you.

The last of the Red Light casinos is up and operational as of tonight. Plenty of specials going on for new and returning players, so come and try your luck. I think I'll be testing mine, as a matter of fact. The way I figure, we're all about due for some.

[High Stakes Group]

Interest in resuming our games?

[Damia]

You airborne yet, blondie?

[Siri]

Quieter today?

[Aud]

Got some reports for you - short version: I made you some money. And I've got something to talk to you about, so let me know when you can come by. I'd rather not bother the countess.

[Chloë]

In the market for a machinist and your name came up. You do commissions?

[Jareth]

Been awhile, buddy. You weather the last bullshit okay? I still owe you that beer.

[Ash]

So exactly when were you planning to
If I didn't know better, I'd worry you'd died, for fuck's sake
So do we just not see each other to keep from fighting? Is this your genius plan?

[..............................] That new security working out for you and your [.............] housemate?

The whole docks area's still a work in progress, but the market's back to normalcy. [...] Not as many vendors as there used to be, but the quality of the products hasn't dropped. Still the best place in town to find fresh fish and seafood, and import goods.

[ Cian ]
And speaking of import goods. You found a replacement for Sevrin yet?

[ Clients filter ] (ooc: for people who've purchased poisons/traps from her in the past, shady types)
Back in business. Taking on commissions again. Appointment only, as usual.

[ Sky ]
Arwel's store's a heap of rubble, but we found his books. You're the one used to be in charge of that, no?

what's wrong with this city?

[chloë]
don't even start.

[darius]
hehehehhehe.

[kiernan]
hehehehhehe.

[miles]
what the fuck. you're "gone" for a bit and now all i hear is about how im in the market for a samurai. i genuinely don't even like samurai. ninjas are infinitely better.

[rivalen]
what the fuck did you do?

[scarlet]
did your mother drop your brother as a baby, is that it?

There is no going back now. You can never go home.

Spotted a caravan of nobles moving out through the gates yesterday. I admit the temptation to follow their lead was high, but I'm stubborn.


[GILLIAN]
How are [...] I stopped by the shop -- looks like the repairs have come along nicely.

[CIAN]
State of the syndicate?

[AUDREY]
Do you have any time for work, now that the [...] wedding is taken care of?

Okay, I need a fucking drink. Are there any bars left which are not in pieces?

[Scarlet]

Kwee needs a bath.

I heard a little ditty in the Theatre District earlier today. Somber little thing. Is this the sort of thing I should be expecting in the weeks to come? I'm going to come home crying every day.

[ TG. ]
It's hardly my fault if a man challenges me to the knife game and stabs himself in the hand, is it?

[ CIAN. ]
I suppose I owe you an update on the ship situation, but I'll give you the short version: dead captain, dead rat and no way to hang him for imaginary crimes, though the crew's now aware of what he was supposedly up to. Putting money into repairs, crew's happier, everything is swell.

It's not how I expected the story to go, but you can't control which way the wind blows.

[ MILES, unsent. ]
Do you want to
