[quote=The Absurd Rogue]Ah, how I envy you. I hardly have time to have a good meal between running Flowerdene Street and attending functionaries in Veilgarden. However, a good wine is always welcome. Enjoying the company of others is taxing on the heart, so I often just have a day of sleep when I can manage it.
A question, if I may?
Out of all the major districts in London, where do you spend most of your time?[/quote]
I mostly spend my time in the Filt, planning heists on everything that exists.
if you didnât sell your soul, would you ever sell your soul and for what would you sell it? And if you already sold your soul, do you regret the choice?

My relationship with my soul is rather complex. Right now I am running a scam on devils as it were: Sell soul for a rather large diamond, regain soul by some means, rinse and repeat. I get to keep my soul when I raise enough profit, which for all we know may be important, I get large amounts of profit from it, the devils donât seem to mind, and it does not feel any different when I get it back, so I assume its ok. Everyone wins. A dangerious gamble of course, but highly profitable and one I will take the risk for.
if you are the sort of person to con others or do other such dark deeds, what was your biggest ever take? And did it have repercussions? edited by Kylestien on 4/21/2016

I cannot comprehend regret of the matter, for I was quite handsomely paid for that bottled item. If it had any significance, the lawish collection of some bizarre devil would make for a better place for it than I, anyway.
"What do I supposedly have in common with a woman named âMalice?â"
There are terrible crimes, things we can never undo. But what about the small crimes? The little moments of pettiness that you can never seem to stop agonizing over? Whatâs the smallest thing youâve ever felt guilty over?
Correct, the Captivating Princess has a taste for it.
So, a question.
Where does Red Honey come from, and how is it made?[/quote]
[li]
Rysiek & Agata: We would like to know too? Anybody has an idea? both pull out notebooks
Agata: I admit to have tried honey and NO! Just no! It helped kill Sarah!
Agata: I donât know where it is from or how it is made but I know it sells for a nice price⌠and, what is keeping me away, apparently is horrible⌠horrible consequences.
Frank: A gentleman should never come close to such things
Due to being curious, I am passing this question to the next person
Not that kind of rose garden. Hell has burning roses.
To answer the question: Red Honey is produced by lamplighter bees that have been driven into a frenzy for collecting human memories. The roses that produce this effect in the bees are a cultivar of Exileâs Rose cross-bred with a flower from Hell.
Now for a question: Remind me, where did the foxes go? edited by Lamea Lawless on 4/22/2016
Awwww, Lamea, you so let them off easy with your answer. Now theyâll all think itâs not nearly as horrific as it actually isâŚ
Anyhow, I know the answer to your question, itâs common knowledge amongst zailors that the foxes went South, to the Mountain. I canât attest to the truth of that, Zee-stories are what they are. But it is what I have heard.
Now my question: Who in Fallen London do you currently find most attractive? (I must admit a shallow, and fairly recent, crush on the Turkish Girl, she has quite the way of bounding past me at the tail end of a race that I just have to admire, and those ankles . ⌠⌠.)
[quote=absimiliard]Awwww, Lamea, you so let them off easy with your answer. Now theyâll all think itâs not nearly as horrific as it actually isâŚ

Rysiek: To tell the truth⌠I have to admit the same thing. She looks great, doesnât she?
Agata: This person she pulls out a picture. It does count that she is in all of my dreams? Including the nightmares? If not⌠I admit Ms. Von Ravenscroft is looking quite good⌠though I donât have a crush on her. But she is a beautiful woman.
Maria: Well, Eliza obviously. You have to ask?
Frank: Please. Such questions should not be asked. Women and men whom I might like should only be a matter between me and the significant other person.
What are your nightmares about?
I have more nightmares about the things I have done than the things I have seen. I had so many nightmares about Comtessa and about the burglaries in the Flit that I pretty much welcome nightmares about monsters and Correspondence symbols.
What was the hardest thing you had to do in order to make your name?

I thought âcollecting human memoriesâ was horrifying enough without the accompanying graphic imagery.
Sigh. Everything good lies in the South. Except, of course, what lies in the West.
I donât remember what the hardest thing I did to make my name was, so Iâm passing Professor Strixâs question on to the next person.
Hardest thing I had to do to get make my name was grind for days on end to get all the dangerous achievements even if my persuasive was higher since I already had one of them, but not a persuasive one and I didnât âoh hey maybe I could look up how to get itâ. Iâm a very smart lady, truly.
Now, my question: What is your end game goal and what will you do once youâve achieved it?
Dirae Erinyes: âTo kill a master. Maybe several. Survive the experience and continue to help guide London after such an event. Masters donât die easily and not without consequence.â
Evensong: âTo ensure my familyâs survival between the Masters, the Liberation of the Night, and everyone else.â
Question:
Many of us here have composed a least one work of art. Which is you favorite piece that you personally created?
Oooo, it was a penny dreadful about a certain master thief that confounded the constables for months and disappeared in the shadows. A thief thatâs totally not me.
If you could return to the Surface for one month, where would you go? Would you go back home for a while, or would you travel someplace youâve never seen before?
I would⌠ahhh, perhaps not. Not anymore. Itâs been a long time, and sentiment fades. Nostalgia cracks and bleeds into a trifling apathy, and Expectation has ever been the paramour of Disappointment, especially when one must count on the reactions of others.
Iâm rambling, my apologies. Perhaps venture into the far north. The furthest reaches of our globe have yet to be conquered, and I would savour the opportunity to stand upon the crown of the world before all others. Of course, the Orient continues to be a source of great fascination, and it would be nice to go there in person instead of having to rely on fanciful second-hand accounts. Or Egypt, due to a certain⌠lack of traction, I suppose. There are others that I would like to visit, but I fear I know not yet what I seek. Everything in time, though. All in good, good time.
And now those subsequent I ask: What is your relationship with pain? Do you avoid it? Study it? Perhaps cherish it? Can you bring yourself to invite it into your head if it serves your purposes, or can you not bear it to entertain its presence?
Dirae Erinyes: âPain is proof of life. Not the only one, but one of the most reliable ones. I remember pain upon my creation as the electricity coursed through my body. Pain is one of the chains that draws you away from the boatman. Life is preferable to death, so I prefer pain to numbness. That being said, it doesnât mean I enjoy accidentally setting myself on fire so often.â
Professor Strix and others have lamented the deplorable state of academia down here. What academic pursuit did you wish the University supported?
The Implacable Method is horribly underutilized in many parts of the world. I would want to further the study of bacteria and smaller lifeforms to better understand how we can best put a stop to diseases that could easily be prevented.
