Hello everyone! With the recent events, there are a few thing I would like to address! Mainly, a few items that found their way into my hands that I believe belong to someone else!

First would be this violin!

[Attached is a picture of the aforementioned instrument. It is quite blurry, Marie is most likely not Aefenglom's best photographer, even if among other French citizens of the 18th century she would probably rank fairly well. There is a logo of the maker visible in the picture. It is rather blurry but maye you still recognize it?]

As much as I would love to be able to play one well, I am very much just a listener, so I believe it should be returned to the original owner! Amadeus? Salieri? Wataru? Does it look familiar to any of you? Or maybe it could belong to Elliot?

Second thing that found its way to me would be a cookbook!

[The second picture she attached is a bit more readable than the first. It's a very old-looking book. Whose could it be?]

I believe it might have been mistakenly given to me because it is in French! However, it was not originally mine so I would love to return it to the owner! If I do not find them, though, I will donate it to one of the city's resturants.

Third item, is... uh...

[She should have locked this part of the post. But she did not and here it is. Purple, shiny bunny suit. Very sexy!]

Salieri... I probably should not have searched your things, but your room is such a mess I wanted to do something nice for you and clean it up a bit. However, I came across this stuffed under your bed and I...

Listen to me, I understand everything. I have never judged your interests and neither do I now. However, I also think that neither should you! If this is something you are into, rather than hide it under your bed, wear it with pride!

Though I am a bit puzzled on how you find this in Aefenglom... Is it... someone else's?

It looks like it says...Rieveldt? I'm not a musician, but that does sound familiar.

[thejoyrider]

Now that I look at it, it does say Rieveldt. Is this a name of something from where you are from?

[cspd]

It's a brand that I'm fairly sure I've seen before, but it's not my area of expertise, I admit.

I'm from the same world as Elliot, though, so if I think I recognize it, he'll probably know in a heartbeat.

[thejoyrider]

Thank you for the tip, sir! I will make sure to approach Elliot about this

[Oh but now that he is mentioning his homeworld]

What is your world like?

[wiggleon]

Dear Marie,

I do believe that book may be mine. I did, at least, have one like that back in my bookshop and I've been lucky enough that some books seem to have turned up through the mirror. Please do be careful with it, if it is mine it's a first edition and quite delicate, my dear.

- Aziraphale.

[thejoyrider]

That is great to hear! I am keeping the book safe in my room for now and I could deliver it to you later if you would like me to? There seems to be some damage though, it looked like this when I got it. Perhaps the Coven mishandled it?

[wiggleon]

[That's.









Unfortunate.]

Would you mind if I came right away to assess the damage? I suppose it's nobody's fault if they just dropped here, but I'd still like to prevent it from suffering any more damage.

[thejoyrider]

Oh, please do come by whenever it is convenient for you! My house is in Haven.
I shall make some tea... or would you prefer wine?

[bad_crowmance]

A Rieveldt, huh?

[thejoyrider]

Is it a name you are familiar with?

[bad_crowmance]

Yeah, there's a company back where I live that's famous for its instruments with that name.
Which means I'm guessing that's Elliot's violin.

[thejoyrider]

Elliot's, huh? Thank you for letting me know! I will go find him... unless he sees this first!
Are you a friend of his?

[fiddlestick]

[!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Could it be?! His one true love?!??!?]

Can you get a clearer picture of the violin please? It might be mine.

[thejoyrider]

So it might be yours? Let me try taking a better picture...

[She attaches a definitely better picture of the violin]

What do you think? Looks familiar?

I LAUGHED

[fiddlestick]

[GASP]

That's it, that's my violin!

[The tiny marks it's gained from use, the coloring of the replaced strings. He know his baby anywhere]

Oh, I'm so glad you found it!! I've really missed it! Where can I come to get it?

[overworker]

Oh! I'm familiar with the company that makes that violin. I'm sure the owner is probably already rushing to get it back from you.

[Looking at you, Ellie...]

So thanks for taking good care of it for him.

[thejoyrider]

Ah, so it belongs to someone you know?

[overworker]

I believe so. The company is based in my hometown, actually. Ellie-- Elliot Craig-- a friend of mine is a violinist from the same town. They're known for making high quality instruments, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was his.

voice.

[fordeath]

[ though he received no item of his own, he's well aware of the mixup situation. he's also aware, incidentally, of all the circumstances that don't allow for that suit to actually be salieri's.

yet. ]

This is— shocking news. You think you know a man... [ the laughter punctuating his words is poorly hidden ]

voice.

[thejoyrider]

Amadeus... Were you aware that he was keeping such an item hidden in his room?

[Not that she needs to know every detail of what goes between Amadeus and Salieri between closed doors. Except that she totally does]

[fordeath]

I can't say that I was. Although I believe I've seen a few mature boutiques in the Shopping District with something like it...

[ a bold-faced lie. he's never toured such shops, though now he's kind of piquing his own curiosity. they must have some items made especially for monsters, and he inwardly wonders what they could look like.

but, speaking of monster-tailored things— ] There's no tail hole, is there?

VOICE... 1/2

[amurder]

[He's going to die he's truly going to die and descend into straight into Hell—]

WHERE DID YOU FIND—

[OH.]

[amurder]

[No!!!]

Your Majesty— [Comes an incredibly choked response. It's hard to talk with all this BLOOD rushing to his head and ears!!] Please believe me when I say I fully intended to find its owner and return it as soon as I was able.

Forgive me. [It's so... risque!!] For you to have seen that—

[thejoyrider]

Salieri?

[She is quite worried now! But the most important thing now is that he knows that he has her full support. If they were to be Bonded soon, the former Avenger needs to be able to trust her]

It is all okay, I did not mean to critique your... interests! You can be honest with me, really!

[not here]

[scatmaam]

[ oh she's just.

gonna let this go for a bit. ]
