I think the Admiral might have been paying attention to my last entry, to choose a location such as this. Giselle would have been so sad to miss it; I imagine she was born in a place such as this.

Admittedly, I prefer the girl to the environment. Something tells me I'll enjoy no vices in a kingdom such as this that won't come with nasty yet fanciful spells of some sort. Ah, disappointment!

What did not disappoint, however, was the passel of new arrivals this month. If only they were always so friendly, I should die (again) a happy, fulfilled old man.

Iago, I trust you're staying out of trouble? ...And did not fall overboard?

Also, I have noticed that this charming little place has had an effect on our language. Let's make a game of it. You cannot censor innuendo, after all. So be clever. What can you get away with?

Well. Glad you're yourself; Arkady and Coordinator Narvin both are gone native.

Nice to see a friendly face. [And that the Marqis takes it in stride is easing a fraction of his native suspicion.]

If you don't mind me saying. If that young lady was from this sort of place, you must have been a heck of a-- a doozy of a--

[He scowls.]

A gentleman is what I mean to say.

And indeed, I was. Sometimes a little classical wooing can be fun. The chase, the subtle dance, the poetry...

[A hair sheepishly]

I can't say I've ever tried, to tell you the truth. Take your word.

It's not for everyone. It's only for persons like myself when the mood strikes us. For those that it pleases, it is a joy. For the rest, they can take or leave, but no one fails to take notice of any form of gesture, provided it's genuine.

It's odd. All the gestures and little things. Associate that more with my... my people. You'd call them. Where it's been a sheets-- can I say that? Good. Where there's a sheets relationship, there's rarely time for gifts and favors. But then I'm closer to my people than most of my sheets acquaintances.

[Which was going to be 'lovers' but that felt so odd to say in these parts.]
