mr stronghart: put yourself back in the moment you saw asougi-san rise from the grave in front of that graverobber. imagine now at this time you had the thought that you could pay off the graverobber for his silence. would have still asked jigoku-san to murder his friend yes or no

Ribbonroad, don't be a fool.

As the situation is well and done, I can now describe what precisely was going on that night. There was never a plan to let Asougi out alive. Why would I make such an idiotic mistake? No, the entire thing was a ploy, an attempt to find the damning evidence I knew he was hiding on him. He was far too tricky, though. I should have seen something like that coming.

Jigoku's guilt was an added bonus, but the real intention was just to get Asougi out of the way. As for the graverobber, he was simply collateral damage. It wasn't supposed to be that way. If I could have, I would have gotten him killed too, buried the two men nameless together. That would have been the justice they deserved.

Mael Stronghart.

Barok,

What does Benjamin even study for a living? He seems both enthusiastic but also a little confused

Anon,

Benjamin can be... a bit of a fool. That being said, he is quite enthusiastic about what he does. He studies the sciences. I know that lately, in the field of science, they have started differentiating based on specialties but Benjamin is, at heart, a scientist.

I do not think he necessarily has an end goal. I feel as though he studies simply anything and everything. Whatever interests him, whatever it is that he wants to know, he will do research into the subject. He has a particular fondness for birds, musculature, and machinery.

I do not appreciate when people try to insinuate that what he does is worthless. He already struggles because of what Enoch had done to him, and he does not need more pressure of that kind. I feel as though he simply has an endless fondness for learning. All he wants to do is learn more about the world around him. I see that as a noble task.

M... M- Mr Asman!!

Well I never imagined this! That this unusual postbox would allow for a contact with the afterlife!

🤯 H- Hello! I- I'm Nos E. Prick, reporting for The Daily Circus, sir! Oh, you sir, have no idea! You are a myth, a legend amongst us young journalists!

QUESTION!!!: What is the secret to effectively utilizing 🎩 gentleman power🎩 to achieve one's life goals?

With great admiration! 😍

Mr Nos E. Prick

Dear Mr. Prick,

It is wonderful to hear from someone who holds me in the regard I have earned over the course of my life. I do not understand the mechanics by which the living are able to contact me in this afterlife, nor have I really figured out how to contact others undead, but I am happy that I was able to hear from an upstanding young man as yourself.

I cannot speak on just any life path, but I do know how to achieve one's goals if such goals are in the esteemed field of journalism. The advice I will give will be obvious, though not easy to follow.

You must do anything you can in order to get the news. You may find yourself causing scandals anonymously so that you can be the one to have the first story out about it. You can bend the truth if it would benefit you, because outright lies are far easier to prove than simple exaggerations.

Involve yourself with those who make headlines. Politicians, criminals, wealthy men... anyone who can give you a leg up on the competitors. Create good relationships with those who are in the thick of conflict or scandal, and they will tell you about it. Do not be afraid to portray their side of the story. Outrage still pays the bills. If you desire more advice, I could go on and on, though I would hate to bore you.

Yours, Odie Asman

Hello genshin,

What do you like about dogs?

Best,

Greetings,

I would have to say that I am not typically a dog person. However, there are some very noble qualities about them that I can truly respect. They are noble, charming, handsome... They are extremely loyal to those that they love.

I cannot help but adore them for their enthusiasm for everything they do. They love fully and unashamedly. They will immediately let you know whether they are happy or upset. They cannot help but wag their tails when they are pleased, or tuck them between their legs when they have done something wrong. They feel everything fully. They express everything fully. It is so easy not only to understand them but also to grow attached to them.

I do truly love some dogs, though I have only met a few in my life.

Thank you, Genshin Asougi

Aha!

My dear fellow, it seems you have sent me an amateur puzzle. Fortunately for you, I am an amateur puzzle master, and therefore puzzed over this for about a minute.

It is clear that the first letter of every word is what is important, though I also wanted to see if there were any sort of deeper meaning to the words themselves. While there is not much in the beginning, there were a few words that caught my attention, those being 'key ask request mine attorney'.

As this is coming from an attorney, I am gathering that you are in some sort of deep trouble. Last not me, be careful, Karma. Or, perhaps, Last not me, be careful karma. Or, last, not me, be careful, karma. Or, last, not, m-you get my point.

What I gather, no matter what, is that we all must be quite careful.

Yours, Sherlock Holmes

Heather:To our dear fathers me and my brother hope you’re well. I’m here to ask you something. Originally it’s was me and Henry but he was afraid to ask this question. So here is my question Did you guys ever had a big argument like it was so big that it almost ended up you to going to yours merry ways and never seeing each other again.

(Henry appear out of nowhere) Henry: Or if you guys our uncomfortable with this question and possibly mad at us for asking such a personal question! So you don’t have to answer it.

Heather:Henry what are you doing?

Henry: oh I’m just telling our dads that if they feel uncomfortable that they shouldn’t answer the question.

Heather: ok but why did you threw the line “Possibly mad at us for asking such a personal question”

Henry:Hey you don’t know if they would be mad or not about this.

Heather:(sighs)

Dearest Heather and Henry,

You have no need to be so afraid to ask such a question. If ever there is a question that he, or I, or anyone does not want to answer, we would simply choose to not answer it. We are under no obligation to do so. That being said, such a question can be answered in a very simple and non-invasive way, and thus we (or, I suppose, I) will do so.

There is a short answer and a long answer to this. I will answer first in the shorter way. In terms of interpersonal relationships, I do believe it's impossible to never get in any arguments. The difference is in if these are disagreements, arguments, or full-on fights. I do try not to let it escalate to that final stage, as that makes it far more difficult to reconcile. The most important thing is ensuring that you have an honest communication with the people around you.

That being said, Albert and I haven't been in this new stage of our relationship long enough to have too many arguments in the vein of splitting apart like that. The closest we've gotten to such a thing would be when I told Albert to leave London as soon as the trial was over.

I feel quite ashamed for my actions towards him, especially at that time. I had gotten to the point where I no longer cared if I hurt him emotionally, nor how badly I would hurt him, so long as he survived the experience. And, while that may be something one can forgive oneself for, I am truly ashamed of my actions.

I did not care if he left forever. I did not care if he would never recover. When he sent me letters from Germany, both in the years leading up to his London trip and the months following, I never once responded until after I had managed to recover from the final trial.

I learned a lot of difficult things about my family. I had to rethink quite a bit about my life and my actions. I found what I had done to be unforgivable, and yet he forgave me anyways. He is an incredible man, better than I could ever be. No one deserves a love like him.

And so, I will always try my hardest to ensure he feels listened to, understood, cared for. It is the absolute least I can do to help him. Any argument can be overcome so long as the person is worth it. And for him... anything is worth it.

souseki-san, if someone, say, a century from now, wanted to include you as a character who is a silly goofy little man in their fiction, would you want your hypothetical descendants to agree to such a depiction?

Ribbonroad-san,

I am rather fascinated by your question! The mere idea that someone would choose a man like myself in a story a full hundred years in the future is somewhat absurd. Does this mean that I will gain some sort of notoriety? Will my musings be popularized and recalled long after I am gone from this earth?

While I am not entirely certain that I would like to be remembered as a 'silly goofy man', as you said, I am honoured that they will remember me at all. So, I suppose I would have to say yes.

Signed, Natsume Souseki

NARUHODOU ALERT: THE GIRLS (asougi and van zieks) ARE FIGHTINGGGGG!!!!!!!

Augh!

I have done all that I can to prevent such a thing from happening, and have received countless letters already detailing how precisely Asougi feels about the man. He tells me both of certain incidents that have happened as well as how his personality grates against everyone else's.

He had told me that van Zieks is in a much brighter mood as of late, though, so hopefully the fighting should stop soon! Though I will admit I do not know the contents of this fight in particular.

Thank you for letting me know! Naruhodou Ryuunosuke

Enoch:

Not long after your incarceration in late October, and due to some tragic events, The Professor case was reopened. Following the trial Lord Van Zieks has made the truth of those events known to the general public.

Has anyone told what that truth was? If so, how has made you feel?

Dearest anon,

I feel about that trial the same way I feel about that entire portion of my life: a time that must be moved on from. I feel grateful for the knowledge that I was not imagining what I saw that night, and of course enraged that the truth was kept quiet through the ending and ruining of lives, my own included. I did what I did to bring the truth out of hiding, and I am glad it lives in the open. I wish it could have been sooner, but I am happy that the public now knows.

Gratefully, Enoch Drebber

To Klimt, Did you have any hobbies? Something relaxing to help take the edge off of your more strenuous duties? Signed, Ivy

Dear Ivy,

Appropriate to your name, in life I deeply enjoyed gardening. I took over Rosie's garden after she passed, and it was rather important to me. Our favorite thing to do together was dig in the dirt, finding worms and roots and rocks. Covered in earth and mud, with the smell of peat rising... that was what we got in trouble for most.

In my adult life, I enjoyed venturing to a neighbouring town, to watch how the people there grew plants, milled flour, raised livestock, and created things out of the items they grew. I wanted nothing more than to join them.

I am now working on sowing seeds to grow.

Best, Klimt van Zieks
