I doubt mine will be detected--I don't roleplay on these Forums enough. However, I join others in thanking Lady Sapho for publishing these Confessions, in this way.

Re: 2. above. Is #1 Passion's?

I really have no clue who wrote this one, but I love it! If there is another mad scientist in the Neath, Mel would be absolutely delighted to meet you. Perhaps drop off a card...?

Well, I'm not afraid of being wrong again! I'm going to guess that #13 is Lady Sapho herself.
And #19 *could* be the Six-Handed Merchant.
I have no idea who #18 is, but your fellow gay slumming aristocrat, Telemachia Lee, would like to give you a hug. Or possibly punch you on the shoulder and tell you to buck up.

Is the guess based on the writing description or the text itself? "Spidery" and "infernal contract" certainly bring said Merchant to mind; I am not qualified to speak to the message.

Both! You're right that I considered both of those. But Six also has a big secret to keep, and I know through role-play that they're both sensitive enough and ethical enough to worry about it.

And speaking of ethical worries - I'm also going to guess that #16 is Professor Kan himself.

There's a big secret, certainly. I just don't know enough to comment on "lovers."
You know, we should fix that. Friend of Six Hands, do let me know when you have an available evening.

Sensual but not in as way that implies harm to oneself or others. Playfully scandalous but classy. Just a touch of silliness, enough to be charming but not enough to be taken less seriously. A delight in playing with words. I have a shadow of a memory of seeing that stationery somewhere before, but I could be wrong there.
In other words - I guessed! Based on vague intuitions.

It's been some time since I've been able to keep up with the roleplays on the forum, but I too want to give #18 a hug. You may not currently have love on the surface, but you certainly have a sympathetic ear here with me.

18 could be Somerset Maugham! He'd be in his mid-twenties, I think. Keynes would be too young, and Turning hasn't been born yet.
Plus he has an attraction to the working class, and a meekness that doesn't wholly compromise his dignity ... Yes, this is my guess, #18 is Somerset Maugham.

As Maria's friend "Spike" can attest, trying to find love in the Neath is an exercise in futility.
Hope your fate is better, #18

Yeah Caroline feels stirrings of sympathy for 18. No idea who though.

"Spike" is Flesh-Stick? But he came across as so much calmer and more rational in Maria's story!
