Heard anything fun lately?

but have you heard....

Ace of Hearts @zuihuojoui has quiet of late because he’s trying to hide the fact both his girlfriends, @cherrykadeu and @saygeko, are pregnant! Happy father to be or are both these women going to go missing soon?

Ace of Spades @generalkwon has changed partners! @its-max-okay hasn’t been seen near him at all lately, and his visits to the training grounds have mysteriously increased. Perhaps newly appointed to a prime position @shuliing is the current recipient of his affection?

Starlet @ara-kadeu, who has recently risen to King, is planning to use her higher position as a buffer against retaliation when she sponsors lover @hilo--keahi to join the Diamonds

But will he join her? The two of Spades blacksmith has recently been spotted talking to a couple big movers in Club territory. Trouble in paradise?

Disgraced Academy Professor dumped by his student boyfriend? @lukef spotted drunk and crying wandering Diamond territory after-hours

Casino Dealer @croupiex spotted getting hands-on with @princxly outside his workplace. Immediately called into the Big Office, was it because @saygeko was jealous of her lover groping someone else? In front of her business of all places? 

Wait, if @saygeko is pregnant and seeing multiple people just like her partner @zuihuojoui, how do we know who the father is? Or the MOTHER EVEN- no wait. Nevermind.

@phoenixkadeu spotted back in the city after an extended absence. Where was he? Why was he crying in Aphrodite’s temple with some random guy? @passcridae Was it because of the breakup with @lukef? Does he feel bad after finding a new man so quickly?

Star Cafe on the brink of bankruptcy? Decreased traffic thanks to the corruption and the chaos in the city seems to have been exceptionally difficult on Downtown Diamond businesses.

Rumor mill for the week (6/16)

Could Robert Burgess have a change of heart? News of ACW’s tryouts and more!

Robert Burgess is said to be very indecisive about Noah’s future booking. One moment he likes the British wrestler, the other he doesn’t. Someone who isn’t on his blacklist, however, is Sabrina King, who seems to be doing very well with her women’s championship.

ACW had a week long tryout that just finished this afternoon, fresh news coming from the headquarters is that officials are very pleased with the talent they scouted and are looking to hire at least 50% of the wrestlers in atendance.

ACW is considering a partnership with Hulu for their scripted content, however, Robert is not said to like the small internation reach the streaming site has.

Could E! be interested on an ACW wrestler? Sources say the channel is interested on Hilda for a show, but no one knows if they would like her for a scripted series or a new reality show.

What's the word on the street?

but have you heard...

Clubs still seem to think the corruption was man-made by a highranker but while @generalkwon and @zuihuojoui were the first two to be accused, most who believe this theory now think dethroned Ace of Diamonds Lee Valentina was at fault. Further, now that's she’s dead or at the very least missing in action, we’re all fucked.

Some Clubs seem to have adopted the belief of the city’s Dwarves: the corruption was caused by the death of the last pegasus and the corrupted water is our punishment for failing to respect the environment

The latest gossip from Diamonds appears to be that, despite what the council would have them think, Lee Valentina was actually killed by @zuihuojoui​ and that the only reason the Hearts haven’t invaded is because the Diamond Council owes him a major favor for re-instating them

Some Diamonds have suggested the Academy Council is actually a Puppet Council controlled by Lee Valentina from the shadows. In fact, she faked her own death so @zuihuojoui wouldn’t invade Diamond territory, but she would still have power 

Mutterings between lowranked Spades say they’re about to go to war with the Clubs thanks in part to their attack on Spade Civilians as well as the fact that @its-max-okay recently started seeing a Club named “Shade” @junganton despite her ongoing relationship with @generalkwon

Many theatre snobs fans seem to think we’re witnessing the downfall of @ara-kadeu​. After all, she consorts with the like @hilo--keahi, failed to earn back her Queen rank despite Valentina being overthrown, and she was only given a supporting role during her return to the theatre

Some Clubs seem to think @kadeu-kol didn’t actually earn his spot as Ace. In fact, his father actually lost to him on purpose so he could peacefully retire and leave the armory to his beloved son

Academy Students love a good scandal. Most recently, it’s been spread around that not only is @lukef prone to sleeping with students, but his favorite is none other than @phoenixkadeu. While the professor likes to pretend he doesn’t like non-diamonds, it’s only to cover up the fact he’s sleeping with them

Apparently, if you give the right secret password to one of the bouncers at The Yelling Secrets, you’ll be given an invitation to a special Black Market Auction @fromashanddust

[kadeunpc]

what’s new what’s new👀

but have you heard...

HIM the Barbarian’s followers have started calling themselves “The Barbarians”. It seems like they make up almost half the faction at this point

Clubs are definitely on the brink of collapse. People over there seem so on edge and it's almost impossible to walk through the streets at this point

Spades at the center of the art world? It seems like an art studio called Ema Artistry is gaining popularity within the art sphere @dusttodustandstars

The Palace may be thinking of closing its doors to lowrankers. Apparently the dehydrated lowborn have been more prone to fights and heckling recently so the Palace’s financial backers seem to want to solve the issue by banning the lowranked. While this move isn’t unprecedented, there are a few playhouses in the theatre district that require a certain rank, it would be the first time in almost two hundred years that The Palace followed suit @ara-kadeu

Could there be a new casino on the rise? Some of the Ko dealers have been seen entering Diamond Territory with an odd frequency. I bet the council is going to open a casino soon - placate their angry elementalists and line their own pockets at the same time @saygeko @croupiex​

One of the popular ritualists in Heart territory hasn’t been seen in a while. There are a few whispers going around that he’s been hired to open a portal to the Fae Realm on behalf of one of the clans. Was it the Zuihuo? Or maybe one of the lesser clans is trying to make a move @zuihuojoui

A revamp in Spades? A lot of people in that faction have been pretty active recently. They’re all a little hush hush about it, big surprise there, but it seems like their Ace has been on their ass about something @generalkwon​

[kadeunpc]

new gossip please and thank you

but have you heard...

@ara-kadeu seems to have peculiar tastes. First, her ongoing relationship with Two of Clubs @hilo--keahi and now she’s invited a married Dwarven couple into her home? I guess disabled blacksmiths and desperate refugees are what do it for her

It seems @duri-sawbones may be a spy planted by the Diamond Faction. How much do people really know about this guy anyway? He always looks a little off, maybe he’s been lying about his alternate forms 

@kadeukarma seems to be getting around these days. First, she was in Diamond Territory hovering around @nerenth and now she’s off in Club Territory with @mercykadeu? Seems she’s not as “off the menu” as she claims to be, but I guess a head whore is still a whore

@phoenixkadeu has been crazy suspicious lately. Could he perhaps be involved with the resistance? The guys obviously batshit crazy, would anyone really doubt his involvement with the bombing of the Academy?

Has @ujin-khaos lost his touch? First, he flips his lid attempting to make a Spade assault one of his other patrons, then he bans lowrankers from his club and now he’s playing favorites with @peachestpeachatkadeux? Whose the real concubus here, huh? It’s hard to tell whose got whom wrapped around their finger since they both can’t seem to keep them out of each other

@zuihuojoui seems to be keeping his hands full. @cherrykadeu, @saygeko, @acevalentina, the decapitated heads of his enemies. Just how much flesh can this fae juggle?

[kadeunpc]

Heard anything interesting lately?

but have you heard...

It appears there’s a new favorite jiggalo in town ( @junganton )! Mystery man has been spotted around town with Ace of Diamonds @merirobin, was personally requested by @ara-kadeu after one of her performances, and even appeared to be on a date with @its-max-okay!

Has @ara-kadeu replaced her dwarven and disabled lovers with a new model? 

Trouble in paradise or playing the field? Are @its-max-okay and @generalkwon over or is Max just taking a ride on the city’s current favorite side-piece?

@ujin-khaos seems to be frontrunner for the pending suitor’s ball for @allorekadeu‘s hand in marriage. Spotted out together, it appears the ball may be a secret coverup for their whirlwind romance.

Lowrankers in Diamond territory seem to think there's a hidden cache of food stores being hidden away by The Academy Council ( @merirobin )

Word has sprouted in Club Territory that the reason for the corruption is due to the sinister plots of some sort of high-ranking mastermind. Many names have come up as the cause including: @generalkwon and @zuihuojoui though there’s no real fervor behind either claim

The Dwarves seem to think the corruption was caused by the death of the last pegasus. They have no proof for this but seem to think the beasts citizens of Kadeu long-thought extinct were, until recently, very real and denizens of the wilds.

There is a serial killer moving between Heart and Club territories whom citizens have nicknamed Red Death. They’re too high ranked to accept rations and have thus turned to murder and cannabalism to eat. I heard they’ve only been drinking blood, too.

[kadeunpc]

do you happen to have any juicy gossip?

... but have you heard?

Highrankers, especially those in Diamond territory seem to be under the impression General Kwon Jihoon @generalkwon is in a secret relationship with his ‘personal healer’ Zhang Maxine @its-max-okay. It’s being said she’s actually far weaker than her rank would suggest

Highrankers seem to believe Ace of Hearts @zuihuojoui has recently taken a liking to a lowranker. People don’t seem to actually know much, but the rumors about her are vicious. Many seem to believe her a succubus and whore who has tricked Joui into favoring her ( @cherrykadeu )

Highranking Diamonds seem to believe they are no longer welcome in Ko Sayge’s @saygeko casino The Koi. None of the facts surrounding why are cohesive; it’s likely a single customer has been complaining. 

Midrankers have recently been gossiping about Lee Hyeonju @kadeuxhyeonju. Apparently, he’s been hiding his status as a sex-worker and the only reason he owns the Vega Gem is because a high-ranking Heart bought it for him

Midrankers also seem to believe Lee Valentina @acevalentina has lost her touch. This seems to be because one of her drug houses was hit, and she still hasn’t caught the perpetrators

Lowrankers have labeled Go Aesin @nerenth soft-hearted. They seem to think her one of the kindest highrankers, though some seem to be trying to take advantage of her

Lowrankers seem to have grown to dislike Yi Ujin @ujin-khaos recently. Apparently, he made his desire to maintain the status-quo abundantly clear. Due to this, The Golden Faerie seems to be attracting more mid to highrankers lately, rather than their usual mobs of lowrankers

[kadeunpc]

what's the latest hot goss?

… BUT HAVE YOU HEARD?

Apparently, the resistance in Diamond territory is all but wiped out! They haven’t made a move in weeks, perhaps they’ve all finally accepted the status quo? Or they all died which given @acevalentina‘s reputation isn’t that far fetched. Maybe she hasn’t lost her touch after all 

Highrankers seem to be looking favorably upon lowranking blacksmith @hilo--keahi. He may also be sleeping with one of them but... I mean his lower half doesn’t even really work, right? ( @ara-kadeu )

Diamonds seem to be visiting @saygeko‘s Koi Casino once more... guess the guy causing all the fuss had way more bark than his bite

A lot of the branch managers for Zuihuo Bank in Diamond territory seem to be dying off. The Bank seems to be handling everything extraordinarily well, almost like they had backups for all those managers in place already. Pretty wild coincidence. Maybe instead of firing people, @zuihuojoui likes to kill them off instead? He is a Fae

Lowrankers seem to be frequenting The Red Dragon ( @cherrykadeu ) and Boxing Clubs’ After Hours Fights ( @mercykadeu ) more often now that The Golden Faerie ( @peachestpeachatkadeux @ujin-khaos ) has closed its doors to them. I guess when you can’t watch strippers take their clothes off the next best things are Hookers and Fight Club

The Spades seem rather unified lately. Perhaps its because the General’s girlfriend ( @its-max-okay ) got a promotion. Apparently @generalkwon‘s speech was quite inspiring. I mean, what else would you expect from a zealot awarding his partner, though?
