The Feast of the Exceptional Rose is here!

If I get any gifts, i’ll reciprocate in kind.

EDIT (to the best of my ability)

I’d love to receive and reciprocate any non-fate gifts.

(reminder that there’s also a thread in the Singing Mandrake for people looking for gift exchanges: http://community.failbettergames.com/topic21737-feast-of-the-exceptional-rose--gift-exchange.aspx )

This is my first Feast, and I’d love to exchange gifts!

ScienceFairy is flitting all about the glimlit streets of London, engaging in scandalous dalliances and merry assignations with lovers of life here below in the Neath. Come celebrate the Feast with me!

This is my first Feast, and I’m so excited! I’d love to exchange gifts, though I can’t reciprocate Fate gifts, and the thing I have easiest access to is Teeth.

Hi all, this is my first Feast so I am a little uncertain how to proceed. Happy to receive and give gifts ,as best I can, during this season. Profile is found at:

Also, I would love to pursue the Clathermont’s Tattoo Parlour line, but I do not see the Clathermonts in Ladybones Road. How do I raise my A Name in Seven Secret Alphabets to 4?

I will certainly entertain the receipt of goodies and treats, and return them in kind!

In Ladybones Road you will need to have completed the case to find the Missing Comtessa. Once that’s done the Clathermont’s story will appear :)

If you’ve not reached the Comtessa case yet just keep doing the other Making Your Name cases with the Honey Addled Detective. - Think it goes Finding the Detective, then tracking down the Absconding Devil, then Comtessa- (I can’t remember, but I think you can leave the Poet case for later)

Do you know, I’ve never actually been much of one of the Feast of the Rose. Should any gifts find their way to my door, I fear that good manners would demand reciprocation. Barring any Fate-locked items, that is, as I am short on Fate at the moment. Item-rich, Fate-poor, as it were.

I too would not mind some gifts at my doorstep, should any fall into my hands, I would do my best to repay the giver

I already have Acquaintance: the Honey-Addled Detective 1; A Finder of Heiresses 2; Evidence in the Case of the Absconding Devil 7; Entwined in the Intrigues of the Clathermont Family 9 and I still don’t see anything in Ladybones Lane. What else do I need? I’m very confused right now.

And I just checked, I have A Name in Seven Secret Alphabets 7 - Immortal in Horizon Glyphs. So the mystery continues…

Ah sorry - in that case here’s the answer,

[quote=Hannah Flynn][color=#0066ff]

Find the Clathermonts in Ladybones Road when you have A Name in Seven Secret Alphabets at 4 or higher. As part of the Feast, continue this story from the same area by playing News at Clathermont’s from 15th February.

You’re all set and only need wait until the 15th to continue the story :)

My friend was kind enough to gift me 80 masquing worth of items, the tanned mask and spiked rosary respectively. I shan’t be rude to ask for more, but deciding whether to either save them for those precious extra 2 points in BDR, or trade them in at the end of the feast for a renewed companion… It is driving me slightly madder than my usual self.

I would hold onto them! The companions are availible any time during the season, and except for RP, there’s no substantial benefits for getting them, while the BDR is priceless!

Do NOT send me gifts. I have already arranged all that I require. Any further unarranged gifts will not be reciprocated.

I was thinking the same, but it still bothers me that I can’t get both during this season.

If you seek additional Fate-gifts but don’t want to bother anyone, you could purchase them yourself. Sending a Fate-gift to another and having them decline the offer places it directly into your inventory instead.
