So misty in Shropshire today. I stumbled on the cemetery in Ellesmere, mistook it for a church and got out to have a look. Lots of lovely, old monuments. It backs onto a lake full of coots, geese and swans.

The Shropshire Distillery Navy Strength Gin

There is a well worn path made by people moving from Lancashire settling in Shropshire; it was, in part, what the A49 was built for. My parents did so in the 1960s, albeit via Anglesey and Nottinghamshire, and, by implication, so did I. Emma and Gareth Glynn made the move in 2012, settling in the beautiful north Shropshire town of Ellesmere and in 2018 set up the “Gin Shed” in their house. They…

1334 – Day 2 – Ellesmere Home

It is a happy day in the Ellesmere household when young Marcella Ellesmere, daughter of Amye and Sir Silas, is born.

Although it must be said, that strictly speaking, most of the day is not very happy for Amye, but intensely painful and exhausting. As wife of a knight, paying a midwife is not a problem, and both that woman and her mother are with her the entire time, but she labours for close to a day and is ready to just give up by the end of it. How she doesn’t, only the Watcher is ever likely to know. She certainly doesn’t.

“I never want to go through that again”, she mutters to her mother as Malika, beaming, puts her baby girl in her arms. Her mother can’t help but smile, pressing her shoulder.

“I know. But just look at her. I swear, that’ll make it all worth it.”

And she’s not wrong. Like her twin brother, Amye never thought overmuch about having her own children, but unlike Malcolm, she falls in love with her little girl almost as soon as she sees her. Marcella is big and healthy – which probably explains the long labour – but what almost makes her laugh is the bright red fuzz of hair covering her head, despite both her and Silas being black-haired. It seems that that particular family gift cannot be repressed.

When Silas returns – for he had spent the labour in town, to not be in anyone’s way – he doesn’t know who he is more in awe of, his young wife or the tiny miracle she has given him. He may already have children, but to this little girl, he will actually be a father. From the moment he lays eyes on his daughter, he knows all his heart is hers, and that however long he has left, he will do his utmost to be the best father she could ask for.

And judging by the way Amye smiles at him when he looks at her, she shares the feeling in its entirety.

who wants to hear about my Fallen London player characterrrrrrrrrrr

meet Professor Ellesmere Kanemestris, the Lascivious Oneirologist (any pronouns): a flashy, arrogant half-Rubbery who loves to party! they're set on the Heart's Desire ambition—having escaped from a life of heavy restriction on the surface due to the nature of their very existence being taboo & snapped out of a life of gluttonous overindulgence by getting sent to prison, they're searching for the infamous Marvelous card game to not only win their heart's desire, but also figure out what it is they truly desire along the way

they are also the biggest polyamorous aromantic pansexual disaster in the Neath, being canonically married to nearly the entire adult population of London (as well as dating @wingedcatgirl's Inessa), and they have an adoptive urchin son they stole from the tigers during the Coilheart Games

their in-game profile is here if you wanna check it out: https://www.fallenlondon.com/profile/Ellesmere%20Kanemestris
