Also, a friendly reminder that I will intentionally have Edmund address people incorrectly at times to reflect his lack of formal upbringing and limited social education! Though I think the substance of his letters will make it clear that such things are not meant as any form of insult!

Character Name: Edmund Ayles Character Pronouns: He/Him How to address you on envelope: Mr. Edmund Ayles How to address you in letter: Formal: Mr. Ayles/ Mr. Edmund Ayles Informal: Edmund How to refer to you in writing: See above Characters favorite/preferred color(s): Autumnal tones (reds, browns, oranges)

Seconded on this question- should we include a separate envelope for each letter, @Athena Peters ?

@Lady/Marquess Emmeline Petty-Fitzmaurice (Robin) Edmund would have gratefully accepted the offer!

Mr. Edmund Ayles, put together out of the closest thing I had to period-accurate clothing.

Your Name: Mr. Edmund Ayles Arrived: 9:30 AM Arrived With: Duke James Richmond, Lady Kitty McAllister Activities: Mostly waiting beside the carriage, may have possibly been pulled into equestrian discussions by @ Duke James Richmond (Greg) at some point, up to him. Interactions with Emmeline: Likely none aside from the occasional observation Departed At: 5:00 PM Departed With: Duke James Richmond, Lady Kitty McAllister

Now to decide whether to use the proper way to address such persons, or whether to address people improperly due to poor education 😂

@Athena Peters A question along these same lines - ought we to include extra postage when we send in our letters for the purposes of mailing them to their final destination?

@ Duke James Richmond (Greg) Hey, mine is currently listed as the 2nd. It's the 21st.

Always open to potential suitor connections! Mr. Ayles is young, , and kind, but also of the servant class, don't know if Charlotte is open to that.

Gonna go with the technique of just using my own to make it easy to remember. August 21st.

Sounds like fun!

I love this idea! Consider it done!

I don't know whether Hazel would have an interest in a handsome stable boy who often waits with the horses and arriage outside the theatre, but if so, potential romance there?

@Lady Violet Heloise Blankeney-Coventry (Elizabeth) Friendship sounds delightful! -Jesse

@ Duke James Richmond Hi Greg! That sounds great to me! Thanks! -Jesse

Character Name: Mr. Edmund Ayles Bio: Edmund Ayles is a handsome young stable boy currently working for the ______ family (see below!) Having grown up not knowing his parents, he spent his early years in poverty, but his natural charm and affinity for animals eventually allowed him to make enough to get by tending horses. In addition to managing the horses themselves, Edmund also often drives the carriage to and from society events, where his good looks occasionally attract the attention of those who might not otherwise notice someone of his station. Those who speak to him fin him to be both honest and exceptionally kind, if not precisely well-mannered. Having little in the way of formal education, Edmund prefers to listen rather than speak, though he does have his pet topics just like anyone else. Wanted Connections: -A family to work for -Romantic interests -Casual or serious friendships
