We Are Watching

I’m about to go to bed, so I’m writing you because I took a day off yesterday— other than my letter about my brothers being back.

I hope you’re doing well, and I hope Nik is helping you. I am going to start taking appointments with him, as well.

I have started this speech a dozen times, and have not a word to show for it.

Aeri, 

I am definitely interested!  I am a fast learner!  I would love to talk more about this, I will be around Silvermoon in the evening and if you’re not able to make it today, another time is fine;  I understand you’re busy and everything. 

Also! Can’t wait to see the vases!

…I want you to come with us.

… I need you to be with us. 

Knight-Master;

I .. must admit that the things you speak of in regards to metalurgy, or whatever they call it, is way beyond my limited knowledge.  I have complete and utter faith in your decisions, however.  I would be more than pleased to see you again, and have words on your project, and perhaps discuss a few more future possibilities.  

Respectfully,

Evie;

Given the delightful duties I have gained overseeing the foodstuff and general care of the house, I find myself In a bit of Dilemma and hope to get some help from you.

Nikki,

Highlord Blightheart,

Would you prefer I come upon this day or upon the morrow? As always, Highlord, I am pleased to be of assistance to you. I have recently finished a plumbing project of my own and the experience is fresh upon memory. I should be able to have your office’s plumbing in proper order by week’s end at the latest, depending on how many pipes are burst or missing.

If there are any other endeavors I may assist you in, please feel free to contact me. I will be meeting your Miss Al’Kane soon to gain her approval for a custom order she placed on your behalf. I cannot say if you will find the project to your taste but I am rather pleased with it. If you find her commission pleasing, I could fabricate more of in its likeness, although I believe she intends it to be a singular accent piece.

I await your response and look forward to easing your burden.

Your friend,

Unperturbed to hear it.  You may come upon this day.  I will myself be in vacancy of the occupancy.  My vivaciously impeded cohort shall be capable of granting you access to the domicile and appropriately indicating to your person the matters of trouble.

With cordiality,

I regret that I shall not be able to break words with you face to face. However, it is a thing of little note. We shall have time to share our company once business has been concluded. On the sordid topic of coin, I shall not require you to empty your purse to fill mine own. Consider my work to be a gift of gratitude and friendship, one happily given.

Warm regards,

Screw you. 

Is this supposed to be your idea of a joke?  Because I told you I’m not in the mood.  Knock it the fuck off. 

No offense was intended, old friend. Let us move pass my slight and not let it stand between us for I fear if you continue to berate me, a ferret really may somehow find its self loose in your office.

I shall come to your office this day and see what you’ve done to the plumbing

Warm regards, you hedgehog,

It’s also a title I made up, you ass.  You of all people ought to know better than to talk to me like a noble.  I have to take that fake pleasantry crap from everyone else, I can’t handle it from you.  I’ve started overcompensating for the niceties.  Yesterday I threw Despil down the stairs.

Though that was because he had it coming, but anyway.

By the way we also invented the doctor thing.  Despil made me a certificate. 

And I’m amassing all of the titles at the moment but I think I may need to choose one because the business card is in peril of becoming comical.

No more animals.  Speaking of hedgehogs I literally am living with a porcupine.  A goddamned porcupine.  No, not even, okay, it’s a GHOST porcupine.  Or “spirit” porcupine, or whatever.  Did you know what kind of sounds those things made?  It literally sounds like there is a possessed toddler in the house.  

You’ll see.

Alright now that you remembered how to talk like a normal person I’ll come by.  I didn’t do SHIT to the pipes either, that was the blight damned geist.  He was going to take it apart to see if he could fix it.  The short answer is “no”.  

Wait until you see this place, though. 

Though you’ll have to explain to me how “Knight Master Shadowbreaker” had another plumbing project.  It couldn’t have been for you, I just assumed paladins had evolved to shit rainbows at this point.

Miss Al’Kane,

Hey,

I’m going to cut to the chase. I’m really stressed out, I’m running out of time, and I don’t really have time for mea culpas for not hanging out with you more outside of a professional environment.

I love these guys, I’d do anything for them.

So why do I have a need to push them away? Why do I feel like an inconvenience to them?

I may end up talking to Highlord…I put his card in this journal, maybe he can help, but I feel I may be beyond repair.

Despil,

I just realized I have four patients and we haven’t even opened yet. How often am I supposed to meet with people? Case by case basis, correct? I’m not meeting with everyone every week, right?

Daily Routine.

5 am - wake up, bathe, coffee.

6 am - prepare Breakfast for whoever wants it, make more coffee, set out the cups, and clean up whatever pots and pans and things I used to make the breakfast.

Brother-

Been thinking about taking side contracts to get paid for the killing I do. Thoughts? Low priority targets only. No one from the city.

I’m going to be totally blunt with you.

Contract work is what killed you.  So, no, I’m not eager to have you out there again. 

I’ll find a safer way to make things interesting. Be more specific about my prey or something. Make some arbitrary rules to follow about who gets picked off.

Don’t worry.

We’ll talk.  I don’t want to think about it tonight.

Aeri is jealous of us, did you know that?  She’s jealous that I throw you down the stairs.

By the way I’m going to throw you down the stairs.

Cheating brat.

Not if I never climb the stairs. Now what?

And she can't fall down the stairs. She'd break. ... 

We could probably throw her off of a waterfall or something though. Hey, maybe we should take her fishing. Yeah.
