"Maria has done many things I am sure an outside observer would qualify as 'eccentric'." "I remember feeling no end of frustration when she was a child." "Perhaps it amuses me how ordinary they seem now." "Watching her carve up and diagnose her own dolls..." "As a child, and as of last week..." "All I feel now is pride at how accurate her portrayal has become."

"Those two have so frequently infuriated me, growing up..." "But something amusing they've done?" "I once bore witness to Temperance forcing much of the household into performing an opera with her." "She threw the most tempestuous tantrum to have her way." "Fortunately I was locked in my study at the time."

To miss Shinn

How would you feel if you wear a armor?

"Are you asking if I would have mail on underneath this dress?" "On very rare occasions, I have been known to invest in bulletproof wear." "But ideally, I would conduct my business such that I don't require it." "It isn't the most comfortable thing, to wear layers upon layers of cotton and other fabrics."

To the reapers with children: what is the funniest/most bizarre/infuriating etc... thing they have done?

"Well, my child hasn't been born yet, but I have a lot of such memories of Barok when he was just a boy." "I remember when he claimed that he had an imaginary friend to get out of trouble when he stole tarts from the kitchen." "... And then when that venture bore fruit, that friend became quite a common houseguest in our mansion." "I certainly learned a lesson about not being too permissive..."

What do you believe happens after we die? (sorry if this has been asked!)

"Common belief is that we will end up in Heaven or Hell after death, as influenced by various factors." "I'm not sure I personally believe in such things." "Though I've always thought that we would continue to exist in some capacity..." "Somewhere else." "Not in our coffins, one would hope."

Seeing how Sebastian would react how would Temperance react to the news of her father’s misdeeds?

I think it'd be less of a shock to her. Temperance is more inclined to assume the worst in people to start with; unlike Sebastian, she doesn't believe anyone really respects law and order beyond not wanting to get caught. And by this point she had a pretty big grudge against her father, so finding out about his crimes makes her feel more validated than anything.

Mind, she found out what he did a lot later than the rest of her family since she's not even living in England. It doesn't affect her life and social standing nearly to the extent that it does Sebastian, so I'd say she recovers from the news much more quickly.

Has a good laugh about it, perhaps.

"I recall one lovely little affair where a gentleman companion of mine took me to one of my favorite tea shops for a 'first date'." "He was adequate company." "But one of my targets passed in on the way to the music hall, and my--" "I was never more amused at the timing of it." "My companion was not quite so amused, though." "To this day the poor boy thinks he made a mess of things with me."

"You know..." "I think I used to admire Genshin, when he was alive." "He was one of the most honest and steadfast men I'd ever known." "I've never found anyone who could match his sense of justice now that he's gone."

I wonder how Sebastian reacted to his father's murders

Oh, it left him pretty shaken up.

He definitely didn't "like" his father or think he was a good person. But he always seemed to uphold and expect an impossible standard of lawful behavior, so the idea that he was doing something like this, for a good part of Sebastian's childhood no less, completely blindsides him. A part of him would just want to be mad at Barok and Kazuma (especially Kazuma) for "framing" him, but everything that comes out in the public trial would probably force him to accept it's the truth.

Not to mention the fact that being a Stronghart is now incredibly bad for his reputation, whereas before Sebastian kind of took advantage of his family name to get unearned privileges. I imagine him changing to his mother's name Moran to get away from it.

Once the shock wears off, he'll just become very bitter, I think. Bitterness is something he's more comfortable with feeling than grief.

"I remember when I was courting my Charlotte, our first few afternoons together were chaperoned." "Well, her father was the one arranging things, after all." "But there was one evening where she snuck out from her estate to meet with me, and we spent a few hours together without eyes looking over our shoulders." "I miss having happy evenings like those." "The weight of things now has made it... harder to enjoy them."

"My youth was full of more pressing activities than engaging with the fairer sex." "But I do recall my first outing with my then-fiancée being a pleasant affair." "...We visited a public garden, if I remember correctly." "But I would not consider it a proper 'first date'; we knew each other quite well by then."

To the reapers: Have you ever been on a first date? How did it go?

"I've been on two first dates. Befitting, I suppose, that I have been married twice." "Memories of my late ex-husband I would rather not dwell on, but..." "My second husband arranged to take me to see a theatre show when he finally gained the courage to court me." "It was nice." "Until he threw up."

To Jezaille Brett I need you in Denmark because l have serious business with someone else in my family as one of them tried to usurp the throne. -King Christian VIII

"I would hate to turn down royalty. That's more prestigious by far than my current employer." "But an assassin does have her reputation to consider..."

To His Majesty, I sympathize with your plight. Regretfully, I am not available to take on new contracts at this point in time. My current contract will expire by February of next year, however I understand if by then you will have secured alternate means of settling your family dispute. Best regards, Asa Shinn.

"I find that to idolize any individual is a dangerous game." "I am all too aware of the flaws of my peers; even the late Klint van Zieks had his own skeletons in his closet." "Is there anyone save Her Majesty, the Queen, who is deserving of my admiration?"
