24th of MidYear, 428 3E
Yesterday's news was not all that exciting, but it made up for it today, but first I wanted to mention that I sighted one of our little fox friends when I was coming home from today's class at A.I.U. As I was approaching the LLAMA booth I saw Sifina's pinto donkey foal trotting along the side of the road, and bounding along beside him was Frost. The gray fox appeared for all the world to be escorting the little donkey back home.
Whatever the case, the foal is lucky that Frost is indeed a fox rather than a species of larger canine. Anything larger than a fox would have viewed the baby donkey as prey. As it is there are thylacines, possibly wolves, and maybe even hyenas around, so a young equine should not be running loose all by itself. Had the donkey been further away from home I would have used Beast Tongue to lead him to Sifina's myself, but he seemed to be in good hands...or in this case paws...with Frost.
Another bit of personal news, my grandmother seems to be settling into her new life in New Pelagiad. No, I have not seen her myself, but Neldor told me he saw her seated at one of the network devices within the university library. He had never seen her before today but knew who she was when one of his classmates pointed her out. Needless to say, Barenziah's guards were nearby and making sure that my grandmother wasn't communicating with anyone who might give her or the former king aid.
I commented to Neldor, "I wonder what she was looking at on the network."
He replied, "Yanna's network journal. I could overhear the recording of Yanna ranting about what a bastard Godonir is."
With a soft laugh, I said, "Well, that journal may be stupid, but I have to admit that it's morbidly entertaining."
As far as the offical news that was broadcasted over the network, the announcer had this to say;
Dagoth Vemyn was summoned to Aryc of Silvervale's office at town hall this afternoon to explain the large sums of money that were being deposited into the business account of Dagoth Gilvoth.
Vemyn was heard to exclaim, "It is not blood money, so stop calling it that! Yes, my brother is an annoying, uptight shrieker who needs to remove the rod that is shoved up his posterior, but he is a legitimate business mer. Anything you may have heard to the contrary is mere speculation!"
Aryc stated calmly, "We examined the beans that Gilvoth and Neloth have been growing and found that they are not fit for consumption. In fact they are quite deadly. I doubt this was by accident."
With a snort Vemyn repled, "All that means is that Gilvoth and Neloth know nothing about farming! I don't know anything else about those beans! They are so bright and come in many cheerful colors...there mere sight of them annoys me!"
And the other news story that was broadcasted; Master Neloth is in trouble in again.
"Crassius Curio was making googly eyes at me!" Master Neloth exclaimed after kicking Crassius in the groin earlier today. "He had it coming! That pervert should just keep those eyes of his to the ground!"
Anaril explained as he cuffed Neloth and escorted him to the town prison, "Crassius staring at you was not a legitimate reason for you to kick him."
But that is not where the story ends. I heard the rest of what happened from Acacia who heard it from Darkfell. Just as Anaril had removed the cuffs from Neloth's wrist and was preparing to lock him in a cell, Neloth turned around and gave Anaril a few rapid slaps across the face. This resulted in Anaril giving Neloth a beating. I'm certain that this Altmer knight who had once been King Reman's Champion did not use his full strength. If he had, Neloth would have quite a few broken bones rather that just bruises. At the time I'm writing this Neloth is in one of the sickrooms at the healing center (securely cuffed to one of the bed-rails). The way he is griping and wailing one would think that Anaril had managed to grind Neloth's bones into powder.
So that was today's entertainment. The last thing I want to mention, just to keep track of things, our sterility amulet has been put away in my jewelry box. Now Neldor and I will just...proceed...without it and see what happens.
*~*~*
The last part about Neloth slapping Anaril was inspired by the sim-Neloth doing just that to sim-Anaril. As soon as I had the screenshot I wanted and released them from posing, Neloth turned toward Anaril and slapped him. This led to Anaril jumping on Neloth and giving him a hard beating. When it was time to save and close out the game, Neloth had just been admitted into the hospital. These characters never fail to crack me up.

What is Aryc wearing there? It looks good on him.
Neloth seems to love slapping people. He does that in my game, too.

His attire is a part of the Palace of Versailles set. I'm trying to get the exact file names for the suit and boots from the Non-Decrapified Store Content site, but I'm having one of those days when the site doesn't work properly for me. I click on a folder, in this case the CAS folder, and nothing happens.

Yes, he's always doing that and it typically leads to him getting beaten up. And in this case, slapping a knight who is so strong that he was King Reman's Champion was not one of Neloth's most intelligent moments. LOL
Edited to add: The folder just opened for me. I'll find that suit and boots for you. :)
Another edit:
The suit: amBodyRoCocoVest
The boots: amShoesRococoBoots

Thank you! Those clothes are great for Aryc.

Neloth is arrogant enough to think that the peasants (even Knights) are not entitled to smack him back. He kept beating up the poor bot Gilvoth had built. So I gave the bot some athletics and martial arts so it could beat up Neloth in turn. As it is, it zaps Neloth because of the Evil chip that Sophelia's bot had installed into it.

That is beyond funny. Not to mention being a huge plot bunny.

It is funny seeing the bot zap Neloth. It's hilarious the bot hates the both of the Grouches and they are stuck in the same house.

Crassius Curio needs to be reigned in before something bad happens...
House Hlaalu, you need to keep better tabs on your council members! I know you're corrupt, but DAMN!
