What does keeping the Memento of Passion lock you out of? I just finished romancing both of them at once, and I'm now wondering if I should forget the whole affair or hang on to it...

It locks you out of pursuing them again, and it also locks you out of the storylet that lets you boost fascinating.

I had the Functionary at Work card for the first time, and clicked "perhaps not." Does the card recur?

It's on the same character, but the spouse is not from the Teeth. It's a Cultured Attache, not one of the Intriguers.

Sorry, I switched the faction names. The Cultured Attache is from the Face and the Tapestry from the Elder Continent is from the Teeth.

Oh, then yeah, I got both and apparently it's a weird thing. I googled some and tried to get back some memory of what that story was like, because I barely remember it. But the Attache didn't seem like an ending to story at the time, I don't think. The storylet card was there and I eventually went through it, I think.
Tapestry I didn't even notice at the time because I hadn't discovered what home comforts were yet.

Is there any way to change who you make your toasts to other than the Making your Name storylets? A change has been, ah, inspired.

The Tapestry from the Elder Continent is in fact made available by siding with the Face. Siding with the Teeth allows a player to receive a Collection of Discomfiting Photographs as a home comfort.

Is there a guide for optimal Port Carnelian grinding around?

Wait, it is? Okay then, the bug is having the spouse and home comfort at once, not having things from two different factions.

What are the benefits of joining the court again?

--
I will accept all actions, though I hold the right to refuse for my own reasons. However, if you explain WHY you send me a harmful action like Loitering or Dantes,And I feel the reason good, I will consider it more. http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Kylestien

More content! I recommend trying it out to see for yourself.

Not quite guides, but this thread and the wiki's Matters of State summary should be enough to go by. The most important thing to remember, IMO, is that you earn partial maps or antique mysteries at a rate of (favor - 35) / 70, rounded up. You get one at 36 favor, and another one for each full 70 favor above that (106, 176, 246, 316, 386...).

Out of curiosity, how did you lose that quality?

Now that the Cheery man conflict story obtained an ending, does anyone know if the A drink with the Cheery Man's card requirements changed? I do love that card for the dream quality (which isn't obtained from Nadir) and I hate to lose this option.

Or do we have any new cards?

If you lose any Acquaintance qualities (outside the Repentant Forger through one specific story) you should be able to regain them the same way you got them.

Wiki says the card locks with Family and Law 12.

If you're not a PoSI, you can get lucky with a rare success with "Correspond with a contact" in Veilgarden. If you are a PoSI, you can re-encounter "A Friendly Face" in the Shuttered Palace.

    I can't seem to find the option to summon the Amaneusis under "Write letters" despite the fact that I have no Obscurity, Notability 1, and Making Waves > 20+(B+D+R)+4*N, which is the formula cited by the wiki.

    Is there some kind of extra condition to allow you to summon him from your lodgings? The option doesn't even appear for me.

    "Use your influence to invite Slowcake's Amanuensis for a visit" can be found in the "attend to matters of society" branch at your lodgings.

    Is there any profitable grind in the Unterzee? I would like to go around the islands after I am done with Port Carnelian term-grinding, but since I have seen the content in previous excursions, I am wondering if I can make it count in terms of echoes.

    If you mean sailing itself, acquiring Plated Seal en route, then breeding a Hound of Heaven gets you roughly 1.5 EPA. Not amazing, and it only works once per trip away from London, but it's worth doing as long as you're at zee.

    If you mean on the islands, I don't think any are particularly lucrative except for fate-locked Tanah-Chook.
