My writing of course! My writing career is one of the few aspects about myself that is true both on the surface and on the neath. If nothing else, a beautiful poem or a clever short story is great at breaking the ice.
Also, Dirae Erinyes is my London named.
What do you serve at a romantic dinner?

What do you serve at a romantic dinner?[/quote]
Three kinds of poison (honey, brandy, and spores), tea, and scones, mostly. Sometimes i offer other things as well, but generally my sense of romance is as dim as the neath itself.
What is your favorite poison, here?
Eli: Love.
A question, if I may?
Would you rather meet what lies at the bottom of the Zee or the roof of the Neath?
[quote=The Absurd Rogue]Eli: Love.

MĂ iread came down to the Neath in search of a particular word, and instead she found the voice of Thunder calling from the roof. So sheâd like to get up there for a hot chocolate and a slice of cake with the storm. Hugs are a possibility. Also, dampness and pressure play havoc with the violin strings, so, yeah. No underzee for her.
Who is your favourite furry friend (or scaly, if youâre more of a turtle fan) here in the Neath?

Maria: Marshy. He is a big, cute softy, really.
Rysiek: Well, I like my Parabolan kitten quite a lot, but this ainât meaninâ I wonât arrest you wenn ich muss! It isnât making me less dangerous. If you try to kidnap it, Scarface and Jimmy will deal with you,understood? And I will deal with your remains. So, you get all this junk about society?
[li]
Eli: Society is a delicate game played by delicate people with very un-delicate rules. Itâs like stacking bits of eggshells when you have hammer for hands, or teaching a horse to fix a merry-go-round. So, yeah, just my cup of tea!

Rysiek: Shooting or football is much easier. And football is a lot more fun⌠well, I love rubbery lumps.
Maria: I like spore toffee and a glass of Absinthe. Though, I wouldnât object to a surface meat pie. So, is there someone in your life you would like to spend the rest of it with?
[li]
Of course. Thatâs why Iâm married. Iâm a very committed person. The good news is Evensong feels the same way. Though snuffler lives seem much shorter then ours. . .
Which reminds me. Have you ever been Jack?
Eli: Probably. The real question is, was I killing these people under the guise of Jack or actually as him?
A question, if I may?
When do you know for sure that you have royally ruined your day?

Any day I actually have to dip into my stores of⌠letâs say, illicit beverages made from distilled snow⌠Is not a good day.
also any day that ends with a blade through my body, or a one-way ticket to the tomb clonies.
what is the most dispicable thing in the neath?
edited by Grenem on 2/5/2016
Cruelty and callousness towards the children in it.
What is the most wonderful thing in the Neath?

All of the Neathy delights!
Honey-dipped Dark-dewed Cherries
Lacre-dipped Souls (only at Christmas, theyâre fattening)
Rubbery Lumps baked with Peach Brandy (<âlooks good, havenât tried)
Blancmange
WINE! All wine. Hot wine. any of the Greyfields. Snooty people turn their noses up at the 1879 because itâs a screw-top, but blindfolded, they wouldnât know the difference from an 1882 or even an airag.
Who is your favorite companion? Or dalliance? No-one will tell.
Eli Lowe: There are many beautiful, passionate and intelligent women in the Neath but if I were to develop a relationship with them, I would place both of our lives at risk. Iâm not exactly the type for a one-act-play, either. Life is lonely. True professionals donât make friends, I guess.
Are you excited for the Feast of the Exceptional Rose?
Inordinately. Each year I hope a certain red-haired lady with a way with words will finally appear.
Also itâs an excellent time of year for the music business. Serenades in demand everywhere.
What gift will you give your beloved(s) at the feast?
A new member of her family. One at the very least.
The feast is a time for love but also disappointment. How do you handle rejection?
Flesh-Stick: I CRY CAUSE IT MAKES ME SAD THAT SOMEONE I LOVE DOESNâT LOVE ME BACK. I CRY A LOT DOWN HERE.
IF YOUâVE GOTTEN ANY GARLIC CANDIES OR HATEMAIL THIS FEAST, WHICH ENEMY OF YOURS DO YOU THINK SENT IT?

Rysiek: The cheery man?
Maria: Hatemail? I letters got! Friends me sent. You eyes on someone already have?
Eli Lowe: I think I do, but courting danger is really the only way to get anything done anymore.
A question, if I may?
Who is your least favorite person to run into on a nice day?
Hengar: Dr. Orthos or any of his ilk. The brutes and ruffians that make up his âFleet of Truthâ as he likes to call it are no better than revolutionaries. Perhaps even worse as at least with revolutionaries they blow up their bomb and are done with it, but Orthos JUST, WONâT, STOP.
And now a question from a frequent duelist What form of weapon do you favor?
In a former life upon the Surface, I may have answered âa stout boarding cutlass, balanced but just a smidge tip heavyâ. But now in this world turned upside down and UnderNeath, I realize the best weapon is a fumilating weasel. I donât actually have one, but once I do, we will strike weasely terror into the hearts of those needing terror struck into them.
So then. What is your favorite pet?
