Gossip Gixie
by greenie and lilacmage
Spotted: a lacy purple garment found in Squire Alan's room. Has Alan been seeing a lucky woman, or does he have a secret to hide?
Rumoured: a certain Knight Commander and Rider Commander were missing from a Royal banquet. Unfortunately, his Majesty was not available for questioning as he was attending a meeting on the improper use of draperies.
Returned: a certain Duke has yet again returned from the dead to fulfil a new evil plot involving infomercials. Could this devious plan spell the end of King Jonathan's reign?
Questionable: Rebakah Cooper has denied recent allegations of her "kissing" a certain Rouge. They were merely yelling at each other when their lips touched for a split second. That's all.
Seen: Numair Salmalin appears to have been avoiding his lover's bed as of late. We suspect the Black Robe mage has been avoiding telling his wife about his cat allergies. We advise him to tell his wife... while wearing full body armour of course.
Found: Bad poetry about a certain lady knight. No prizes for guessing who that belongs to.
What: is the cause of the sudden co-operation between the Own and the Riders? Sources inform us that the Commanders are putting a lot of effort into ‘maintaining close connections’. And, most importantly, what will this mean for the traditional Midwinter pranks between the two groups?
Who: is responsible for the mistletoe above the training master’s desk? We don’t envy the pages; he’s said to be furious.
Which: empress and her guest gardener have reportedly been using her greenhouses for more than just growing plants?
Who: is putting their unique talents to use as Tortall’s newest spy? We’d tell you, but then we’d have to kill you.
Missing: Sausages from the Winding Circle kitchens. It seems that Little Bear may soon be Big Bear.
Which: powerful redheaded mage has a terrifyingly familiar temper? Perhaps the Lioness has been a little more busy than we thought…
Heard: An explosion coming from the Salmalins’ rooms. Experiment gone wrong, or another dragon-tantrum?
Which: giant-killing Knight Commander was recently seen with Lady Sabine? We don’t like to discriminate based on age, but she may be taking the term ‘cougar’ just a little too far.
Spotted: A certain blue-eyed Sergeant. That’s really all that needs saying…
Missing: A sleeping roll from the Riders’ supplies. Is it coincidence, or is someone scheming for a snuggle?
Which: attractive Namornese nobleman was seen experiencing a wardrobe malfunction? We suspect a certain stitch witch, but whether she was vengeful or mischevious remains unknown.
Who: is in trouble at Winding Circle? Perhaps he should be reminded that some thoughts, like what Dedicates wear under their robes, are better left unsaid.
Seen: Gary of Naxen standing interestingly close to his squire. Perhaps he’s trying to get in touch with his Conte side.
