To: Mister Catch
Always with love, Genny
These posters are silly, you are lovely and sweet.
(The gift enclosed was a pack of fresh parchment, poster sized, the one on top was one of his that had been posted around the city at the height of Rhaena’s reign, marked up and changed. Ink crossing out the ‘Lunatik,’ and ‘friend’ written in, rosy cheeks added and all the adjectives changed: sweet, kind, and good chopper of wood. The real gift was a set of brushes and two stopped up wells of pigment).
To: Miss Gloria
Your friend, Genny
Your heart seems always in the right place, but mind your books – remember them before you speak. You have a place here, as much as anyone.
(There are two gifts she sends, the first is a small set of books: “Politicks vol. 1: Leading Decisively,” “Politicks vol. 2: Mind of the Masses,” and “Politicks vol. 5: Balance.” There were two missing from the set, but inscribed in each was a ‘To Miss Gloria Wynsee, that you might rise in the Inquistory and learn to use what you read. Be humble, curious, and always listen with every sense before you speak. Sincerely, Genny’. The second was a set of blue gloves, a lovely but durable sort of suede).
To: Miss Ariane
Your friend, Genny
I know nothing of these things, I am told it is a fine thing. I hope it suits you, finds use in protecting you and those you love.
(To this woman she both knew well and was yet a stranger, a somewhat long and somewhat flat wooden box would arrive, with a plain but incredibly well-made dagger, resting on a pillow of fabric inside).
To: Mister Calomel
Your friend, Genny
I hope we can meet, I hope one day you will tell me what happened to you. To Glenn and Gloria too.
(A purchased toy and a small story book, intended for the man and the small girl she’d met).
To: Mister Treadwell
Your friend, Genny
Thank you for all your help this last year. You have done a fine job. I hope you and the family may enjoy the holiday.
(Of course, a pie should have followed. But it is just the small note, a scheduled delivery and with the pie-maker out of commission there is no sweet treat for the chubby councilor or his wife, Alice, to enjoy).
To: Glenn
- Genevieve
Get well soon, much has changed and much must be discussed. When you return, let this help you look sharp. It has never been much help to me, but perhaps it will help you see and remember your old self.
(The large flat package is marked ‘handle with extreme care,’ and within is a looking glass several feet high and several feet wide, the edges adorned with a careful and intricate woodwork, stained dark and polished well).
To: Miss Rhaena
Your friend, Genny
Thank you for all you have done. To simpler days and fond memories.
(A small little box, inside in a fine lace kerchief is a lock of flame red hair that had been cut and a single, small bell still wrapped around).
To: Zilliah
With thanks and love, Genny
(The first package contains the clothes she had borrowed, freshly washed and pressed if they needed. The second contained a finely embroidered shirt, something handsome and silk in a soft green. The third is the smallest, most secure, padded and covered by silk and in a fine box with a latch, the eye inside with the gold chain she'd worn. It was a small fortune of treasure, with a simply written: 'thank you')
To: James
With love, Genny
It has been a long summer, sweet James, I hope we might meet again soon. It isn’t large, still empty and cold, but some company, coal, and a spring thaw will make it a perfect home.
(There are two boxes, the first weighs nothing, inside a small, dried flower. One he had put in her hair some years ago. In the second box, a fair bit more weighty, but small, is a large iron key and an address to an apartment in Myrken town. One that might have a crate of books and a lamp, but was otherwise barren thanks to the rented bed in the Rememdium).
To: Tennant
(A fine coat, no note written).
