Gossip Gixie
by Greenie, inthefire, PeroxidePirate, and ubiquitous
WHICH: teacher has been spotted giving extra-special tutoring to a lady squire who's lately become much more academic?
WHO: wrote the anonymous – and detailed – memoir, The Secret to a Successful Dog Partnership? Perhaps a tall, owlish Dog who's now (coincidentally, of course) searching for a new partner?
SPOTTED: out of season vegetables at a certain Winding Circle cottage. It seems someone has access to the greenhouse – but who? We're not naming names.
RUMOURED: that Cheeseman Street was quarantined after an innocent house received a very expensive gift from the Empress of Namorn. Perhaps not so innocent after all?
FOUND: A furry orange clump in the middle of the Great Desert. Mages are still unsure of its species. A surprisingly clean shaven Shang Dragon was found in a rage nearby, screaming at a smug Lioness for meddling where she didn’t belong.
SPOTTED: A bird with human ears. Is this a new type of immortal or is the Wildmage losing her touch?
HEARD: Queen Thayet complaining about her husband’s over eagerness to have an abundance of heirs. However, no one heard her complaining about what it took to become pregnant with an heir.
FOUND: What appears to be pieces of a mangled love poem, signed by Squire Nealan. From the looks of it, we pity whatever lady was destined to receive it. Just reading a few words makes our eyes burn.
SPOTTED: A certain lady knight buying a pregnancy charm…and a spare. Rumour has it she’s been keeping busy these last few months.
WHO: was overheard singing love ballads in the night outside Mistress Trout’s lodgings? The only clue was a bunch of red gillyflowers left outside the resident Guardswoman’s door.
FOUND: The missing ladder from the Rider barracks behind a curtain in the ballroom. We suspect that a certain vertically mismatched pair of commanders have been getting up to more than exchanging battle tactics.
FOUND: Delia's undergarments, in Gary's closet. Gary claims Douglass hid them after a bout of crossdressing, but from the racket in the Naxen quarters, it's clear that his wife doesn't buy that story for a moment.
MISSING: Lady Vivenne's riding crop. Rumour has it that Wyldon disposed of it, calling it 'unladylike', but our sources tell us it's hiding in his squire's quarters, where it's getting plenty of use.
SPOTTED: A fluffy white bear roaming Winding Circle. From the looks of it, it's not actually a bear, but a rather large dog. We hear the students are quite disappointed.
RUMOURED: Daja has hooked up with an old acquaintance of hers. People are all abuzz at the news, and even more surprised at the wonder of her lover's metal leg.
WHAT: has put such a bounce in the Stump’s squire’s step? Our sources tell us he’s jollier than ever.
MISSING: Spherical fruit from the Lady Cythera’s fruit bowl. We suspect that the Prime Minister has been playing ‘Lioness’ again.
