MoonBeryl Sunday!

Fio and Ali were seen being all mushy in the Red Dragon Inn Sunday night! They went through their usual round of “What do you want to eat?” followed by “No, what do YOU want to eat?”. It’s really enough to make the sanest person want to strangle them both for just how sickeningly sweet the pair of them are. We get it! You two love each other! Now get into a huge fight so we can talk behind your backs and wonder if your relationship is on the rocks! Really, that’s much more fun for us here at the Den of Gossip. Anyway, our sources tell us that Fio’s DEFINITELY starting to look pregnant which erases any hope we had that this was all some elaborate prank. Ali is not going to be able to keep his responsibilities down to a minimum it seems. Doesn’t he have enough on his plate? Does he really need a child as well?

There was some sort of relationship drama on going in the Inn most of the night but we don’t know the players at all. Brian showed up and seemed mildly amused by the evening’s entertainment. A very subdued Brian caught up with some friends and had a couple drinks. He certainly doesn’t act like the carefree Brian of old…. but really who could blame him??? He’s had one heck of a year. We only hope that he can focus on his wife and children. They definitely need him to stay strong through this whole mess.

Speaking of somebody that hasn’t been seen around much lately, Maia was seen in the Inn and seemed to be trying to keep a low profile. When someone introduced themselves to her, she was polite but not the least bit friendly. In fact, we hear that she spent the whole night appearing very guarded. We wonder if that whole melee at the St Patrick’s Day Shindig really has shaken her. Rumor has it that she was definitely in the thick of things and there was a lot of carnage. We sure hope that she’s okay.

Collie was seen hanging out with an old friend (whose name our sources were unable to catch) and feeding the kid version of Taneth masses amounts of cookies. We hear that Taneth was pretty well behaved but we’d be well behaved too if somebody just kept putting down cookies in front of us! Anyway, we hear that Darien joined Collie and her friend. There definitely seemed to be some tension between the two men. Our sources got the feeling that this male family friend (who is evidently a friend of Collie’s son-in-law) did not think the whole Darien/Collie thing was a good idea. We agree! She’s a grandmother for crying out loud! She needs a nice stable guy whose been around the block a time or two.

Ballerina Katarina and her cousin Juliane were seen chatting in the Inn late into the night. Those girls stay awfully busy with their individual endeavors. They seemed thrilled to have the opportunity to talk about old times and catch up on each other’s lives. Things seem to be getting awfully serious between Katarina and Locke. We just hope that she doesn’t make the same mistake that Eva has! MAKE THE MAN MARRY YOU! Anyway, the girls were overheard trying to put a plan together to take care of the Smith twins so that Johnny and Sianna could get a little bit of alone time. How sweet are they???

The dueling venues were packed with the last of the first round of Madness duels going on in the Annex and a crowd gathered in the Outback for a Slugfest Tournament to try to win MoonBeryl.

Harris was in the Outback at the start of the tournament but didn’t participate. We have to wonder if he has other plans that involve another opal. Why else would he miss out on the opportunity to take MoonBeryl??? Considering most of the opal holders are friends of his, we’re at a loss at who he would choose to go after. Iiiiiinteresting! He did take the opportunity to try to convince Carley (who was there to participate in the tournament) to leave Cy YET AGAIN! It just doesn’t seem to be getting him anywhere. Carley’s pretty head over heels about this guy.

Jaycy was there calling duels but she also had a conversation with Maria about Kattria. It seems that Jaycy wanted to know why Maria would warn Kattria to stay away from Kalamere. We hear that Maria was pretty pissed and denied the accusation. Jaycy tried to get her to calm down but Maria didn’t seem to be having any of it. She was seen stalking out shortly after the conversation began and Jaycy was left looking none to pleased by how the confrontation went down. We’re still DYING to know what is going on here. Kalamere is just causing TONS of drama among these women and we totally HEART him for it!

The final match for the opal came down to Jake of Red Orc Brewery and Badsider fame against Cutie Carley. Yep, you read that right. CUTIE CARLEY made it through a sixteen person tournament to show up in the final round. The match was VERY quick but that doesn’t mean that Cutie Carley didn’t hold her own. It was over after six rounds with a final score of 5-3 with Jake as the winner. An amazing performance by the little spitfire, though. And a big old hearty CONGRATULATIONS must go out to Jake!

And it seems that he got more than one prize for the night! Not only did he take home the opal but rumor has it that he was seen carrying Lil’ Black Book Jaycy out of the Outback after she promised to help him “celebrate”. OMG! We’re not really sure which one of them to want to slap upside the head. Maybe Jake because he just took home the Arena slut??? Maybe Jaycy because she went home with a half-orc??? Or maybe they just deserve one another! This makes my head ache.

After participating in the tournament, Ms. Wyh Not was seen calling duels in the Annex. She and that Roran fellow seem to still be going strong. He was seen looming behind the couch as she called. We hear that he was, as usual, very attentive to her needs and at the end of the night carried her out. This Roran certainly seems to have swept Wyh right up off her feet! Good for him to notice a real catch when he sees one!

Wow, wow, wow! Kalamere was chatting with Teagan… which wouldn’t be all that unusual considering his love for baronesses… BUT we hear that he was asking to use the kitchen at her baronial manor for the week since he evidently had his removed to put in a pool table. We assume this has something to do with the bet that he lost to Maria in which he has to cook her dinner. Anyway, Teagan let him use the kitchen FOR A PRICE! Evidently Teagan is going to make him challenge. No idea who the challenge has to be issued to but it was about somebody specific. We hear that Teagan was seen jotting down the name for Kalamere. And Kalamere AGREED! OMG! We’re so excited to see if he’s still got it and to see who that challenge has to be issued to!

Patty Fingers Sunday!

Sometimes no matter how many times our sources explain to us what happened in the Red Dragon Inn on a given night, we just don’t understand. Maybe there are things that are just too crazy for us to wrap our minds around! That was Sunday night. Evidently there was a gingerbread ship full of gingerbread pirates who went on some sort of rampage in the Inn with Darcy, Lang, and Mega Mom Icer as its victims. The ship disappeared as suddenly as it appeared, though, and the patrons of the Red Dragon Inn were safe once more.

Harris bet Lil’ Bit Lirssa a silver that Harper would beat Kendall in a game of darts. We really didn’t think L.B. Lirssa to be the gambling sort but Harris is annoying enough to make anyone turn against their nature in order to shut him up! Kendall won the game of darts and L.B. Lirssa was excited to collect her coins. Perhaps Harper’s game was thrown off a bit because we hear she was admiring John’s new haircut. Well, after the game, Harris decided he needed to shake down Harper to recover the money he lost in his bet. The pair went blow for blow until L.B. Lirssa provided Harris with an ale… which, of course, distracted him from his shake down.

The night of fights didn’t stop there. Manly Mason and Doc Eva really ripped into Serena! Our sources couldn’t exactly tell what the argument was about but during the course of it both Manly Mason and Doc Eva stomped off once. Lil’ Bit Lirssa seemed to play peacemaker which again proves that she’s the most mature person in the Inn on any given night while Playboy Shane seemed to be sticking close to Serena’s side to offer emotional support. Crazy. We have no idea what this was about but you better believe we’re going to keep our ear to the ground!

Juliane was behind the bar and it seems that will be a regular occurrence. We do love Smith tenders! We hear that she caught Playboy Shane’s eye. Although, honestly, it’s not all that hard to catch Playboy Shane’s eye. Anyway, he was overheard asking Darcy about her later in the evening. We hear that Lil’ Bit Lirssa piped in to let Playboy Shane know that Juliane was Johnny’s sister and that if Shane got “all patty fingers with her” that Johnny would clobber Playboy Shane! HILARIOUS! We hear that Marvelous Mira was cracking up.

There were some Fight Night duels happening in the Annex but for the most part attention was focused on the Fists Tag Team Tournament that was taking place for the Tour. Although they only lasted one match, Jake and Napoleon certainly took the reward for best trash talkers! Who would have thought a rat and an orc would be so good at talking smack to their opponents??? They were so good, however, that we’re surprised that Smokin’ Sartan and the Gov MAN-tastic Matt were able to keep it together and beat them!

In the end nobody could match Sartan and MAN-tastic Matt’s skill and the pair took the tag team tournament. Congratulations to both of them!

What Passes For A Romance Expert Sunday!

Lil’ Boy Blue Locke was seen in the Red Dragon Inn Sunday night which means that we got our first piece of news on Ballerina Katarina’s recovery from her surgery! Doc Eva was overheard asking about it and Locke told her that Ballerina Katarina is up and moving around but a bit “gimpy” still. We’re glad to hear that she’s on her feet at least! Manly Mason was there as well and had a conversation with Lil’ Boy Blue Locke about how to spice up his dinners with Ballerina Katarina since he cannot eat hot food. We hear that Manly Mason had some good ideas and was even trying to suggest some more… romantic option. We’re a little bit disturbed that Manly Mason is considered an expert on romance in this city!

We hear that L.B.B. Locke got a little anxious later when Juliane came in and made a reference about him marrying her cousin. He was quick to say that he and Ballerina Katarina were not engaged. Reeeeaaally? You’re going to shack up with the girl and not make her your wife??? Not cool, L.B.B. Locke! Not at all cool! We’re not entirely sure L.B.B. Locke appreciates what an amazing woman he’s landed. Maybe Head of the Fam Johnny should kick his ass after all! The awkward moment was easily defused when Lil’ Bit Lirssa brought up the subject of Juliane’s new gallery which L.B.B. Locke showed a great deal of interest in. L.B.B. Lirssa saves the day again!

Regular Fight Night dueling as well as a Fists’ MegaBrawl brought quite the crowd into the Annex Sunday night. We hear that surprisingly enough even the storied (and half-retired) duelists, Amal and Xeno, were on hand to represent their team in the brawl. We hear that the Brawl was so insane that it was difficult to tell who was doing what to whom. Quite the spectacle! It proceeded laaaaate into the night and we hear that EVERYBODY ended up pretty beat up. And there’s still two more of them!

Lil’ Black Book Jaycy showed up to get in some regular dueling dressed in a pretty formal gown. We hear that she bailed on the wedding that was ongoing and was in quite the pissy little mood. Maybe she realized just how close to marriage she and Pslyder now are and it scared the living dickens out of her. We hope to God that the realization about the path that she’s on finally dawned in her dull little head. Come on, L.B.B. Jaycy! Don’t ruin the amazing reputation that you have made for yourself by sticking with one guy! There’s still half of RhyDin left for you to seduce and bed! We miss you snapping hearts in two and stomping on them with your heels!

Fit Mama Thursday!

Wow! The Many Faces of Fio doesn’t seem to be having an easy time of things the last couple of weeks. She was seen Thursday night in the Red Dragon Inn talking with a friend and was overheard telling the woman she was speaking with that Lucky Lawyer Lucien didn’t believe that she and Awful Ali were capable of raising Lil’ Bit Lirssa. We hear that T.M.F.O. Fio was VERY broken up about it. At the same time, Awful Ali and L.L. Lucien were spotted having some sort of private and very serious looking conversation on the porch.

T.M.F.O. Fio did run into Lil’ Bit Lirssa a bit later while she was picking out a bottle of alcohol to take to Head of the Fam Johnny’s yearly shindig. T.M.F.O. Fio didn’t seem all that comfortable with Lil’ Bit Lirssa running around at all hours of the night but didn’t really put her foot down either. We think that the pair of them may have already lost control of the girl. Too bad. She really needs a strong hand!

Thorne and Slutty Pirate Girl Teagan are awfully close, aren’t they? Typically we write this off because she’s overly friendly with most everybody and he’s…. well, furry. That doesn’t exactly seem to be her type. Yet, the pair were again seen Thursday night where she was sitting in his lap. We know, we know. He says he sees her as a sister. But we’ve never met somebody who spends so much quality time with their “sister”, particularly a “sister” who is so affectionate. We’re not buying some sort of sibling relationship here. At least one of them has the hots for the other.

Muzzle Dater Sunday!

That Vanessa chick is a bit of a hard ass. We hear that she was overheard telling Harris about her new club, Sanctuary, Sunday night at the bar of the Red Dragon Inn and mentioned that she had some leg-breakers to keep crowds in line and make sure people paid their tabs. That’s not to say that she needs big burly men to make sure the crowds don’t get out of hand. Our sources say that she was quite adamant with Harris that she was more than capable of doing a little bit of crowd control herself. That’s really kind of HAWT!

Harris likes to surround himself with young women, that’s for sure. The easier the better! And Spade is certainly one of the easiest in town. We’ve lost count on the number of laps she’s been spotted on. Anyway, Harris was overheard saying that if his wife ever leaves him that he will marry Spade. Wonderful. That’s exactly what the world would need. Now the question is whether or not he’s above cheating on his wife??? We’re thinking he’s not and we’re pretty sure that Spade would have no problem sleeping with a married man.

We thought that the Many Faces of Fio was really adjusting to this whole motherhood thing but she and Lil’ Bit Lirssa were really at each other’s throats! There was quite a bit of bickering between the two before Awful Ali entered. It seems like it was all over L.B. Lirssa not telling T.M.F.O. Fio where she had dinner but we’re betting that there was something deeper to it. Could it be all those looks that Awful Ali has been shooting Eleanor??? We hate to say it since the Gossip GangSTAR himself married T.M.F.O. Fio and Awful Ali but there definitely seems to be  some chemistry between Awful Ali and Eleanor.

The night was not entirely depressing! There were a couple cute couples about! Sianna was present to keep her hubby, Head of the Fam Johnny, company during his shift! And Doc Eva and her man, Mason, were also about for the first time in quite a while. By the looks that they were shooting each other we have a theory on where they’ve been spending their time! Things certainly haven’t cooled down in their bedroom, we’re guessing! Doc Eva was overheard asking Sianna about her twins. She said they were growing big and strong and are almost a year old! Can you believe that???

Down in the Annex, Ms. Wyh Not and SUUUUPER Des were busy hosting and calling the Sunday night Fight Night! What a HAWT pair of divorcees! It looks like one of them might actually be about to become off the market as well. A… well, wolf-man named Roran has been paying a lot of attention to Ms. Wyh Not and has been eager to spend time with her, it seems. He was seen Sunday night making sure that she had a drink and keeping to her side. Iiiinteresting! We’re not sure if we ever pegged Ms. Wyh Not as the muzzle dating sort but he definitely seems to be taking good care of her. C’mon, you’re dying to know all the details of this one! We know we are! We’re going to be keeping our eyes peeled to see where it goes.

Our Darling Taneth was definitely acting a bit strange! We hear that one of the many pieces of her was walking around the Annex, asking the title holders or the Governor if there was anything she could do for them. It seems she was on hand to serve them. Quite a few of them appeared more than a little uncomfortable with the idea. The Gov MAN-tastic Matt and the Crew’s Tical both told her that they could take care of themselves and urged her to have a seat while the Crew’s Ria egged her on for her own amusement. We hear that at one point O.D. Taneth asked the Governor if he would like…. a foot rub??? Ew. This is starting to get creepy. We sure hope Tormay fixes this Taneth situation SOON!

As further proof that FLAWLESS Koy isn’t so flawless these days, we hear that she totally went off on somebody in the Annex laaaate into the night and was even seen throwing a punch outside the ring! The punch did not hit its intended target and instead collided with a cup of tea that O.D. Taneth was bringing over for her. Wow. We’re glad that Taneth herself didn’t get hit! FLAWLESS Koy seems out of control! Our sources say that her husband, the Governor MAN-tastic Matt, had to literally escort her out of the room. Not good. Not good at all!
