The Fifth - [ written ]

July the first,

It has been suggested to me that I might find myself happier here if I were to engage in further enterprise than I have so far made it my business to do. [Which... She'll grant the wisdom in the suggestion at this point. She has no house to run, and keeping the rooms tidy and her and her brother fed keep her busy but not interested.] I have an arrangement with one individual here [she's trying to be very formal, so she shies away from mentioning Richard by name] regarding sewing and repairing articles of clothing in exchange for what he can part with. [Or the promise of future goods.] Firewood and produce, mostly. I should be happy to extend my offer to others for similar terms.

If this service is unnecessary, I apologise for having troubled the good people of Luceti with this.

I thank you all for your time,
Faith Long

[ keen to make an honest pursuit of the woman, he scribbles back a good natured message: ]

You may write my name, should you want to. [ unless, he suddenly realizes, she truly doesn't want to. perhaps she's ashamed of the association. ]

--RICHARD.

If they do and I think not to allow it, I will tell them so. But...[ a pause. a hard swallow while he figures what to write. ] I hope you're comfortable writing it.

[ what a relief! for a moment, he thought his pursuit might be for nothing. because although she's been kind enough in person, he wouldn't be so bold as to presume that she wasn't simply being polite. humouring a useful ally.

he plays around in celebration: ]
I don't know how to write the words needed to tell you how happy I am to read that.
greenjacketed: (♖ it was not your fault but mine)

[personal profile] greenjacketed 2013-07-02 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
It may come with a price.

[ my forgiveness. ]

An afternoon is all I ask, if you'll permit it.

[ he'd once been to a strange and baffling picnic -- some french convention enjoyed by the marquesa and her suitors. it seems well adapted to luceti, and he thought he might first announce his courtship with a quiet chat. outside. nothing formal. bloody hell, he couldn't do formal. ]

[personal profile] greenjacketed 2013-07-02 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
At your convenience, of course.

[Ah. Formal written conversation. For Jack, it's a bit of a struggle to make his writing appear nice and clean. But he endeavors to do well anyway.]

Currently I'm a bartender, working at Seventh Heaven. I've also dabbled in construction. Stories have been told about the house that I built. I've a strong back, too. Stronger than most. But I'd like to know what you would offer in turn.

Jack Horner.

A little stitch work would go a long way. Slits in the back of a shirt are a little tacky, don't you think? As if the wings weren't bad enough.

[It was a common look around Luceti. But certainly he might strike a better image if the backs of his shirts didn't look so sloppily cut open.]

A home made meal sounds even better. Especially if we get to spend it together.

[It could be said that Jack was in fact the originator of the term 'Jack of all Trades'. Certainly he had lived so long that he'd tried his hand at nearly everything, but rarely mastered anything (apart from the art of love making, movie making, and sometimes money making). It had been awhile since he tried to really build anything and he'd never made an easel.

But he was Jack Horner. He figured that this should be easy for him.]


You're an artist? That sounds like a fair trade. It shouldn't take me long at all.

It's more than what most do. Have you sent any off to the Art Gallery?

I'll put some together for you. [Time for his ace in the hole:] I'd have to see to Clementine, first.
