Jackson Harley aka Mr. Saturday has
arrived in Milliways. Annabelle isn't keen on anyone she knows being unprepared, so a veritable slew of notes is being left with the Bar.
"An old enemy of mine has showed up here, a man by the name of Jackson Harley." Annabelle adds a physical description of the mesmerist. "He's a dangerous son of a bitch with psychic powers and no qualms about using them to manipulate people. Avoid him if you can, but if you do run into him don't make eye contact. I can't swear that that will keep him from messing with your head, but it should at least make it more difficult for him to work his tricks on you. Annabelle Newfield"
Saturday's here from 1938. I'm sure I don't need to tell you to keep an eye out for trouble.

Duty discharged, Annabelle begins contemplating more pleasant matters. Annabelle knows that she's not very good with words, so she's been considering something physical that she can give Tanya in thanks for, well,
everything. Annabelle herself isn't quite...antique enough to have grown up with the Victorian Language of Flowers, but she's familiar with the idea thanks to Jack Tallon. After quite a bit of flipping through various books and some conversation with Bar, Annabelle has made her decision about her gift for Tanya.
The bouquet is a mix of several plants, each with their meaning written on a piece of paper tied around their stems:
Camellia japonica unpretending excellence
Gillyflower lasting beauty
Euphorbia persistence
Gladiolus generosity
Iris wisdom
Oak Leaves bravery
Fern confidence
Snapdragon strength
White Zinnia goodness
Orchid thoughtfulness
There is also a note with the flowers.
" Tanya,
I'm not terribly good with words, especially those of a complimentary nature, so these will have to serve in their stead. I thought that these particular plants suited you rather well.
Annabelle"
