ANONYMOUS TEXT @ANONYMOUSSPIDER

[vivisexual]

I feel like being such a small group we're missing out on the potential of an anonymous message board, so I'm making it happen!!

What secrets or intrigue are people dying to get off their chest? Who's secretly dating? Who do you wish were secretly dating? Do you have a dark secret that's eating away at you? (°ロ°) ! You can vent here, consequence free!!! I want to know what everyone's getting up to behind closed doors.

It's fully anonymized, so you can be as honest as you want. Or not! I'm not opposed to starting baseless rumors. Have fun ♡ ～('▽^人)

[Feel free to follow my lead and have Google Docs' style anon ids if you like, just so characters who who's saying what.]

Bladed weapons are so passé, but who am I to turn down such a romantic gift!

[misclassed]

I know you're only a visitor here, but its tradition, alright? I'll make sure it's a good blade.

[stonehearts]

Yeah? How so?

[misclassed]

You know how good my blades are by now.

[stonehearts]

I meant how is it traditional? To be given to your lover, that is

[ Um, akshually: ]

Ah — no, to your wife.

Used to be that noblemen and their wives would spend a lot of time apart, 'specially when she was in the capital or he was afield.

[ Aventurine can probably guess, why a partner separated from their spouse would need a knife, especially if he's done literally any googling about the time Muramasa was alive or after. ]

[stonehearts]

( Aventurine thinks it's really touching someone would have given their wife a weapon to protect herself with, actually. )

Maybe there's something to be had in old marriage traditions after all. If only I'd found such a lucky partner in my youth! But Gramps, would that make you a nobleman?

Not 'cause I was from one of the big families, but by the end of my life, yeah. My smithy had enough students and I could pull enough weight in arms production that I was given a title and everything, even though I was just a blacksmith.
