Nutty Tuesday!

Tuesday night was a very quite night around town. We hear that the Red Dragon Inn was pretty empty even with Amber pouring drinks for patrons. Perhaps the cold and snow are keeping everybody at home by their fireplaces.

Well…. not quite everybody.

The bed hopping that goes on in this town never ceases to amaze us! If it wasn’t for just how slutty you all are, we’d all have to find real jobs! London and Russ were seen flashing an awful lot of looks at one another in the Inn and the pair ended the night by leaving together. We hear that there was mention of whose bed to spend the night in but we’ve also heard that London has been seen macking on that slutty little Joey as well. Sex is everybody’s favorite pastime! The more partners, the better, it seems!

Leave it to Crazy Train Tara to end this polite “we’re going to pretend you were just on vacation” dance that everybody has been doing with Darcy. We hear that C.T. Tara and Darcy briefly time chatted about her time with Anubis. Our sources couldn’t catch much of the intimate conversation but it does appear that Darcy is now okay. From what we have been able to gather, it seems that Anubis allowed her brother to purchase her from him. As much as she drives us bonkers, we are glad that Darcy is back and okay. We here at the Den of Gossip know only too well what it’s like to become the target of those who would rather see us enslaved or imprisoned.

As usual, Playboy Shane was surrounded by a bevy of beautiful babes! We hear that he spent a couple hours laaaate into the night flirting it up with Shylah, Chief Mischief Maker Eless, and Marvelous Mira. In fact, there was word that he playfully proposed to Shylah!!! Can you even imagine the trouble the two of them could cause as a couple! We love it! That was far from the end of Playboy Shane’s interesting evening we hear. It also somehow involved his ex-girlfriend, Darcy, under. his. table. Yep, you read that right. Under. His. Table. Now that she’s back, we wouldn’t be all that surprised to see them reunite. There was a LOT of chemistry there!

There was also some action in the basement Arena where Warlord Maria Graziano pressed her right of challenge against the Baron Xanth for the right to the ring representing the Old Temple District! Xanth stood along without a second or lady of honor but Maria came with the Overlord Tical as her second which continued to fuel rumors of some sort of relationship beyond their longtime friendship. We hear that the Warlord dueled in honor of her late friend, Jewell, and that she wore blue in her honor rather than the Wrecking Crew colors. It’s still so sad to us!!!

We hear that during the match, Slutty Pirate Girl Teagan was acting awfully odd. She watched the match from the bar with Deliciously Sinful Sin and kept jumping and yelping. When D.S. Sin asked her what was wrong, she said that she was being pinched by someone invisible. Wait, it gets worse.

Anyway, Xanth chose a single format duel which Maria won pretty solidly. She declared the Old Temple District loyal to the Overlord. Congratulations, Baroness Maria!

Now back to the nuttiness at hand! So after the baronial challenge, much of the crowd headed to the Outback for some fighting. The night seemed normal enough until S.P.G. Teagan totally LOST it! She was evidently screaming about invisible people touching her and thrashing around. Smokin’ Sartan had to literally pin her down on the bar while Hot Mess Kelathe did something that evidently fixed the situation. We hear that in the end Kelathe had the be escorted out by Neo and Skid carried S.P.G. Teagan out. Wow. Super crazy. By the way, we here that Lil’ Black Book Jaycy was there when this thing went down but REFUSED to lift a finger to help her ex-girlfriend. Now that’s cold hearted!

To The Court Wednesday!

Lil’ Bit Lirssa spent some time tending the bar at the Red Dragon Inn Wednesday night. She certainly seems to be doing that a lot lately, doesn’t she??? The Many Faces of Fio asked her about her plans for her tips and she mentioned that she was going to use them towards her debt with Awful Ali. Really? L.B. Lirssa is paying Awful Ali for a debt that T.M.F.O. Fio doesn’t know about??? We’re telling you. It sure seems like there’s trouble in paradise! Those two don’t seem to be on the same page AT ALL anymore! We can’t have the first couple we’ve ever married go breaking up! It can’t happen!

The Dread Kidd Pirate Stephen was in the Inn telling (not asking) Crazy Train Tara that she was paying for his guide to the “seelie court” which we understand is a collection of faeries. C.T. Tara had quite a few questions about why he wanted her money to get a guide to this court but T.D.K.P. Stephen would not give her any answers. C.T. Tara wouldn’t give him the money without getting to go along which was a demand that Stephen eventually gave into.  He also spoke with Brale Brother Reap who advised him that he could get Stephen in touch with Spade who might be able to guide him to the seelie court. We have to wonder if this has something to do with Jewell. The timing certainly is suspicious! Maybe he is pretty torn up about her loss after all.

Cowboy Jake and the Marvelous Mira spent a bit of time together, having drinks and chatting. We’re still surprised that he’s being so patient and hasn’t asked her to marry him. That proposal can’t be too far away, right? They were making plans for New Years and he’s definitely smitten with her. We’re not sure if she’s just keeping her feelings close to the vest or if her last relationship has left her a bit burned but we’re still not totally sure if she’s as into him as he’s into her. We have no idea why! He’s absolutely PERFECT for her!

While Harris is awfully good at picking out the new HAWT talent in the Inn, his friends Smokin’ Sartan and Speedster Nova have the market cornered in the dueling venues, particularly the Outback. They jump on new girls faster than you can snap your fingers! Smokin’ Sartan spent a good portion of Wednesday night trying to hook up Speedster Nova with a tall blonde named Penelope. We’re just not so sure how into him the chick was. She’s definitely a hottie, though. Perhaps a wee biiiit out of Speedster Nova’s league.

The first of the round of Opal challenges went down Wednesday night in the Outback as FLAWLESS Koy, the holder of the black opal, faced off against G’naughty G’nort. This was another challenge in which there didn’t seem to be any bad blood but FLAWLESS Koy did seem to question whether or not G’naughty G’nort understood what he was getting himself into with the black opal. The pair faced off in some of the Outback’s infamous rings as Lil’ Black Book Jaycy officiated. G’naughty G’nort took the first match but FLAWLESS Koy took the next two and, therefore, defended her title.

Congratulations to the holder of ShadoWeaver, Koy!

Overlord Tical was awfully busy! He was seen in conferences with two baronesses — a renegade and his newest loyal. He had a short conversation with Lil’ Black Book Jaycy but our sources could not determine what it was about. L.B.B. Jaycy has always been vocal that her loyalty only goes to her closest friends but seems to support Tical’s reign despite her alignment. Our sources tell us that Slutty Pirate Girl Teagan’s conversation with him had more to do with the events of the previous night. It seems that they discussed her loyalty and S.P.G. Teagan seemed confident in her decision.

Our Darling Taneth was acting odd again Wednesday night. We hear that she was back in the Outback trying to get the titleholders to let her give them assistance. Overlord Tical quickly pushed her off on Baroness Teagan who wasn’t able to get rid of O.D. Taneth so quickly. There is something really unsettling about this behavior. It’s definitely making the titleholders uncomfortable. It’s also a bit dangerous. Not all the titleholders are good people. Very very sad.

No Crying Monday!

Elite Eleanor is quite the popular girl these days! She was spotted Monday night in the Red Dragon Inn with Brale Brother Reap… who we can only assume is her man now. Awful Ali was seen chatting with her and asking her for lessons in armed combat, particularly with swords, in exchange for a bottle of vodka. Eleanor was game and the lessons began immediately out front of the Inn. We’d love to know why he has the sudden interest in sword-play. He was seen looking quite sore and a bit worse for wear. Could he be doing it for protection? Or does he plan on becoming active in the Inn’s basement Arena as several of his friends have?

Rowdy Rekah, The Many Faces of Fio, and Lil’ Bit Lirssa were all on hand to watch the lessons go down after a gift exchange. We hear that Rekah got some fabulous rainbow colored leggings from Lirssa! Too cute! Anyway, The Many Faces of Fio tried to get Lirssa to put on shoes but try as she may Lirssa still ran out barefooted. Who would have ever thought that T.M.F.O. Fio would have to get all motherly and serious??? Having Lirssa in her household might actually be good for her! She certainly has seemed more together since Lirssa came to live with them.

So… we weren’t sure how to address it, especially on the news of such high profile deaths as of late and without knowing exactly what happened, but according to our sources Jade has been killed…. by her husband, Dakota. Yeah. Crazy, isn’t it??? From what our sources have gathered, Dakota stabbed some box in the middle of the Inn which caused Jade to burst into flames. Rumor has it that Chief Mischief Maker Eless was actually on hand to witness the whole thing go down. The public is a bit stunned and Dakota is supposedly in hiding while the death is being investigated. Icer and her daughter, Serenity, were told of the news of their “sister” and “aunt” respectively on Monday night and was quite broken up over it. Pretty tragic situation if it does turn out to be true.

For the record, THERE IS NO CRYING IN DUELING! Seriously, people, we would think that would be quite obvious but evidently Neo needs to be told. Yeah, you read that right! Neo of all people! He was seen getting a bit teary-eyed Monday night in the Outback when his girlfriend, Hot Mess Kelathe, was seen giving him some sort of ring. We hear that it’s that ancient sign of eternity. You know the one with the snake eating its own tail??? Romantic. Evidently Neo was quite moved by the gift and these two seem to be going stronger than ever. We’re getting a little frightened that Kel might actually be turning Neo into an over emotional mess too. Say it ain’t so!

The great thing about when Dris is on the couch calling duels is that you know when two hotties come along looking for a duel they will end up in the pool! Therefore, it’s not at all surprising that the match between the Wrecking Crew’s Hot Toddy Tical and Super Slick Psly got the pair shirtless and wet. We hear that it attracted quite the female audience! The pool doesn’t get used enough these days! It always creates such HOTNESS! Ladies, be sure to tip Dris well and we bet that you’ll see some more of your favorites head to it in the very near future.

Well, with the rumors that Jewell and the Dread Kidd Pirate Stephen might have possibly been working on their differences, we expected to see… well, we suppose he was just what we expected to see. Our sources say that he definitely looked morose and was doing some serious heavy drinking. However, there was that Diana woman drinking with him and she was also seen leaving with him. We’re were a little surprised at first to hear that he was spotted in the company of a woman so soon after his ex-wife’s death but he’s just the type to bury his pain in cheap booze and cheaper women.

Pour A 40 For My Homie Sunday!

What in the world has the Red Dragon Inn come to??? We hear that Brale Brother Reap was seen trying to calm Dean down after he got into it with Lang. We’re not entirely sure what the argument was about. We do hear that it had something to do with marriage and Dean’s live-in girl, Quinn, seemed quite upset. We sure hope that they’re not already talking marriage. The relationships in this city are utterly ridiculous! What’s more ridiculous is that B.B. Reap would be playing the sage advice-giver. What sort of alternate universe is this? Our sources tell us that through the whole thing Eleanor was sitting at the bar, speaking to Dean’s girl, Quinn. Could this change in B.B. Reap be due to Eleanor???

Leave it to Keaton to spot a hot little brunette before us! We have to admit that we too are falling for the saucy little Fiora! She’s got quite the little mouth on her. Like Keaton, we’re not incredibly sure what her relationship with the rather spoiled Aymeric is but she does seem to play the role of excuse-maker for him quite nicely. We hear that when Aymeric offended Ilyona, Fiora even tried to step in to smooth over the offense… at least for a moment or two and in her own special way. Seriously? We think we’re in love. She’s totally our sort of trouble maker and we can’t wait to see what she does next!

Our sources report that Potter Piper arrived quite broken up after learning of the deaths of Jewell and her children. It’s so sad and so tragic. She was consoled by Chief Mischief Maker Eless and the pair drank to Jewell’s memory. On a side note, interestingly enough, they ran into Rico in the Inn and Eless was overheard telling him not to listen to his rumor-mongering friend. One guess as to who she could have possibly been referring to with that statement! We’re glad that people are seeing through the act!

We never saw this one coming! Evidently Lilli spent some time at the hearth having a drink with none other than Zev! Our sources are telling us that this is hardly the first time that they’ve been seen in each other’s company and that when together Zev certainly seems to pay attention to his companion. They actually even talked about going out laaaate into that very night to get tattoos. That’s some kind of date! Certainly not what we’d expect from either one of them… but then again we’re STILL having a hard time imagining the pair together at all! We’ll keep our eyes out for it!

It seems that G’naughty G’nort’s wife has not disappeared as everyone assumed! She was spotted Sunday night getting some duels in with him at Fight Night in the Annex. Rumor has it that she’s been spending a good deal of her time remodeling their home. We have to wonder if she’s making room for some kids! Isn’t it about time that these two got hopping on creating little G’norts and Kajas??? Maybe G’nort just wants her for nefarious deeds! We hear that Lil’ Black Book Jaycy was doing some hardcore hitting on Kaja and Kaja certainly didn’t seem uncomfortable about the advances. There was even talking of, you know, inviting L.B.B. Jaycy over for the night. Classy!

Due to some practically ancient history, the Wrecking Crew’s Maria who was hanging out with fellow Wrecking Crew member, Kheldar, didn’t look all too pleased to see Kaja. The two women seemed to be doing everything in their power NOT to notice one another. BORING! We haven’t seen a knock-down, drag-out girl fight in a loooooong time!

Mad Cow Kazzy graced the Annex with her presence Sunday night! She was seen giving her best friend’s guy, Danny, an awfully difficult time when he asked for one of the cookies she had. In fact, she made him get down on his knees and beg. Yet, when Jay came over, she readily gave one up to the handsome dueler! Interesting, no??? Think Grem should be a bit worried??? She and Jay did chat for quite a while after the cookie-giving. We have to admit that we’re a bit intrigued!

The Passing of a Great Friend!

We’re not even really sure exactly what to say.  We’re sure by now that you all have heard the news.

A fire started on Jewell Ravenlock’s estate and quickly overtook the entire complex. Authorities believe that Jewell and all seven of her children  were in the estate at the time. All eight have been declared dead after bodies were discovered amid the ruins of the estate. Fire investigators have been unable to determine why the blaze started.

It’s a sad day here at the Den of Gossip. Although, we were hard on our Jewell, we also loved her dearly. Nobody in this town could cause as much of a stir simply by walking into a room. She lived her life big and bold and on her own terms. Everything she did, she did with flair and her own special stamp. Not only did she love her own children fiercely but she had taken in several of her siblings’ children and loved them as much as she loved her own. In spite of her mouthy tendencies or maybe in part because of them, she was a difficult woman not to love.

We love you, Jewell, and we don’t wish that you rest in peace because you would find that far too boring. We wish you joy, adventure, and whole lot of good looking men to wait on you hand and foot!
