Yes, give us Husky Eggs next solstice instead of penguin eggs.

I'm unsure if huskies come from eggs, even in Lusternia. Still, stranger has happened...

Are Poems Profitable?

A short, but amusing interaction with papa @Parhelion
*******************************************************

Answerer Parhelion Ceartas, Evader of the Shears says, "Mm. That reminds me."

Answerer Parhelion Ceartas, Evader of the Shears says to you, "Your mother informs me that you're formally dating this Emlyn now."

You say, "That's correct."

You say, "I thought I told you?"

Answerer Parhelion Ceartas, Evader of the Shears says, "You told me you thought about it."

Comprehension flashes across your face.

You say, "I wasn't sure if she had liked me but I made some confirmations."

You say, "And wrote some poetry for her."

You ask, "I think it was the poetry mostly?"

A wry smile spreads across Parhelion's face.

You take a lover's journal from a professional black briefcase.

"A Yellow Heart: Both Hopeful and Distraught", By Lawrence Ceartas (Page 2)

Bright Eyes

---

When I look in your eyes I see all the stars of the sky

I see how they how they sparkle and I love how they shine,

but they never looked like that when they looked in mine

---

You

---

The things I hear when no words are spoken

How cherished are the sounds of silence not broken

The slow breathes of warm air exhaled

The security of interlocking fingers held

A feeling perforates, a kindness so true

How does one accurately describe

You?

---

Longer than Infatuation

---

From crystal landscapes to the crashing waves

How you've held my eye for many days

A voice that's as divine as Supernal praise

And a smile warmer than Brother Sun's rays

How could I articulate you in a poetic phrase?

---

You give a lover's journal to Answerer Parhelion Ceartas, Evader of the Shears.

You say, "On page two "You" and "Longer than Infatuation" are about her."

Parhelion looks about himself suspiciously.

Parhelion fans himself with his hand, trying to keep cool.

Parhelion gives a lover's journal to you.

Parhelion nods his head emphatically.

You peer at Parhelion unscrupulously.

You say, "I could write some for you to give to mother on your anniversary if you'd like."

Answerer Parhelion Ceartas, Evader of the Shears says, "Gods, no."

Answerer Parhelion Ceartas, Evader of the Shears says, "If I wrote your mother poetry, she'd expect it."

You say, "Do you think I could start a business with selling wonderful poems for every occasion?"

Answerer Parhelion Ceartas, Evader of the Shears says, "I don't see why not, but if people know you're doing it, you wouldn't sell them for very long."

Mimicking a falsetto, Answerer Parhelion Ceartas, Evader of the Shears says, "This is very sweet, but I think Lawrence wrote this, and not you."

Parhelion's eyes sparkle with amusement at you.

(Market): You say, "Trouble wooing a love interest? Have a special anniversary coming up? Poems for sale for any occasion!"

Your eyes twinkle enchantingly.

Re: Announce Post #3108: Solstice Festivities

Oh my God, I've wanted the past Solstice ornaments to be sold so Alarin could own them all. Bought every single one I'd been missing as soon as I realized I could! 😂

Adding myself as a prospective spouse.

Quixote is a tad quirky. Going to copy the layout from above as it's very well laid out. He is soon to become of the Strongleaf family, is very attached to Serenwilde and will be remaining there. He has loads of toys, bashes astral to excess and tries to be friendly with everybody.

Activity: Logged in for multiple hours each day. UK based but my sleeping patterns are generally very broken.

RP: Non-existent. I suck at it. Badly. Willing to learn, though!

Preferences: Absolutely must be male or NB. Male preferred.

Personality: Impulsive, generous to a fault, likes to contribute.

Big ask, but somebody who has a big interest in coding would be ideal. I am currently working on a free to use system for the playerbase so a lot of my time does go there. Grinding the hours away on astral must be appealing for you also. Finally, your character must also be willing to join the Strongleaf family.

Re: QUOTES 8: THE QUOTING

Qistrel Strongleaf, Daughter of the Beetle says, "And wild mammoths could not pull me away from Callie."
Qistrel nods her head sagely.

Gurashi's eyes light up as they smile.

Ocean waves echoing softly behind his voice, Tridemon Regalis, Keeper of Pure Waters says, "Wild mammoths being notorious for opposing romance."

Brave Herald Calfuray, She who Listens says, "They can try. I did my fair share of hunting in Icewynd."

You say to Tridemon, "Are they now?"

Brave Herald Calfuray, She who Listens says, "Well they do make you deaf and dumb."

Re: QUOTES 8: THE QUOTING

A cobalt blue hexagram shoots up from below.
It slams into you, knocking you to the ground.
You scream as you feel the force of the landing break both your legs.

[!] CURE ME FRACTURES

"Ahah!" Lendren exclaims triumphantly.

Lendren Starfall-Myeras says, "Well if you didn't stay so aloof and hide from my perfectly friendly affections I wouldn't need to break your legs in order to show you how much I like you!"
Lendren Starfall-Myeras says, "That made more sense in my head than out loud."

Opening your mouth wide, you gape in wonder at Lendren.
Faintly, you say, "I'm glad not everyone feels so intensely!"

Lendren looks around furtively, brings her hand to her mouth and releases a small 'teehee'.
Lendren Starfall-Myeras says, "Anyhow you could always use the healing practice."

Xiran sputters incoherently.

Prophetically, she does need the healing practice. Xiran dies to a slivven.

Re: Announce Post #3109: New Producer

I cannot accurately express how exciting this news is, and how hard it has been to know and not scream it from the heavens. I am so excited for Uilani, for our team in the Havens, and for all of you, and I could not be more comfortable leaving Lusternia in these hands.

PS: It's pronounced oui-la-ni.

I originally logged into Zouviqil planning to retire her. @Xenthos had given me some ideas of what I could try if I wanted to return to Zouviqil, but I wasn't really sure. Either way, he was a complete gentleman helping me out.

Then I ran into @Esei, who was quite the help. Followed that up with @Afollia who was a sweetheart. @Kaervas was recently back too and leapt into RP with me. And then @Viravain was like "Welcome back, I have stuff for you to do," even after I fumbled with the order item. Then @Cheliyi helped me fix my description (neon purple... lol).

I've been gone all this time and was treated like gold by people I knew and people I never knew.

I missed you so much, Glomdoring.

There's always something to do in Glomdoring. If there isn't, count on me to load you up with extraordinarily complex and seemingly impossible tasks (with love) and a huge group of people who all know exactly what you mean if you say to them, "...omg. This task. What am I going to do? Please help."
