Journal of the Marquis de Sade

Pere Noel,

Here we are again, late though my correspondence happens to be. If I could have anything I'd ask that you put the ship in to port someplace that we all might do a little shopping on our own, rather than hope you, in the spirit of charity, will do the running about for us. Not that you've ever gone astray, but someone must remain practical in all this. Failing that, enclosed is a list of requests:

( Gift List -- for Everyone, Iago, Lucius, Stildyne, Claire, Arthas, Bellatrix, Prefect, Crane, and Seven )

Pere Noel,

Compelled to write to you though I very well may be, I realize you are the only source most of us have for these silly traditions of gift exchange -- and while I never professed any love of Christianity, I have never been averse to the familial aspects of the season when it has been my opportunity to enjoy them. For this reason I am resisting this a good deal less than I did last year. I am terrible at choosing gifts, however, so I will do my best.

( If it's behind the cut it's not visible to the public. The rest is, though )

Finally -- for myself. I should like a dog. I know not what specific breed you should bring, but it must be an active sort, but also very loyal, intelligent, and most importantly protective.

I trust you to handle things.

-M. de Sade

(ooc: Simm!Master's gift? A beard trimmer. Haha, Marquis. The breed of dog he'll wind up with: A Groenendael.)

(ooc: this letter is addressed but he did not actually mark it as private)

( (ooc LJ cut -- the letter is long and the mun doesn't want to upset anyone) )

Yours in Obedience and Gratitude,
M. de Sade
