02 Stellar Flurry in La Victoire!
Happy New Year, Gaians! 2014 is shaping up to be pretty sweet so far, huh? Except this weather! I don't know about you guys, but it's just been just awful around here. Rain! Rain everywhere! I'd at least expect a little snow or something, but nope. Rain. Just rain. Boring old rain. Can you throw a rainball? Build a rain fort? Make a rainman? Well, maybe, if you can count cards and stuff. But that's besides the point! I'm fed up with all this monsooning. It did get me thinkin' though, 'cause nothing inspires me like sheer boredom, and after some tinkering I think I've whipped up something pretty neat! Check it out:

-

Boom! Stellar Flurry, baby. Take that, weather! You're not gonna rain on my parade! We're going to be selling this lovely treat until January 2nd, 11:59 PM EST so drop by soon to get out of this nasty downpour!

02 Flynn's Booty and Chest are back!
Yo ho ho, Gaians! 'Tis I, Ferocious Flynn, back from the farthest reaches of space to bring you heaps of plundered booty! Obligatory space pirate talk aside, it's been a pretty fruitful season for us privateers of the space sea. The holidays are a time for giving gifts and sending cards and all that, which means it's pretty easy to intercept a few mail vessels here and there and steal all their stuff! Don't worry, don't worry—I didn't ruin the holidays for everyone. I mostly just took whatever cash I could find and ran, so at least that way I didn't steal some little Blorgian girl's favorite Florpity Doll or whatever. What good are those toys to me anyway? I already have the entire Florpity collection already, so no big deal.

Anyway, I'm looking to offload some of this treasure I've "acquired" and so I'm back on Gaia! I've put Flynn's Booty, Flynn's Chest, and bundles of each in La Victoire. Each Booty has the chance to contain up to 100 million gold, and my Chest contains up to 250 million gold! And, y'know, since I really made away like a bandit this holiday season, I'm gonna cut you guys a little break. Ten percent off my Flynn's Chest bundle, on me! Call it the spirit of giving, or whatever. But you know I gotta be blasting off on January 4, 11:59 PM EST, and I'll be taking my booty with me. So visit La Victoire soon if you wanna win big!

03 EI Report: Tale of Clarion, and introducing Josie's Journey!
Happy first Friday of the new year, science lovers! January is already looking to be a rather promising month for Evolving Item-related research, I tell you that much. We've been working ourselves incredibly hard to make sure that this report, our first one of the year, is absolutely spectacular! And I tell you what: all those interns and assistants didn't pass out from exhaustion for nothing! We've got some absolutely amazing evolutions to cover today. Tale of Clarion's adventure still continues, whereas the brand new Josie's Journey has just begun!

-

Tale of Clarion: The adventurers continue to wander through the frozen meadow, their gift of sight allowing them to easily bypass all the treacherous traps hidden in the mist. Still, the path they walk is a dangerous one -- even their enhanced vision isn't enough to protect them from all the obstacles they will encounter on their journey. But the Clarion has other gifts prepared for the heroes as well. As they carefully pick their way through the frigid glade, they spy a chest just slightly off the path. The Clarion gives a faint chime, and the pair know that it is safe. Inside the chest are enchanted garments, capable of repelling nearly any magic attack. They quickly don these new clothes before setting off once more, emboldened by the Clarion's second gift.

Josie's Journey: Ever since she was just a little girl, it was always Josie's fondest wish to travel all around the world. She may be a happily settled shopkeeper now, but when she was younger Josie loved nothing more than exploring wherever she could. She spent her teenage years roughing it in the wilds of her homeland, trekking across the country and having some pretty crazy adventures! And, of course, discovering all the incredible clothes that would later influence her beloved Global Imports and her signature fashion sense. Want to learn more about Josie's amazing journey? Then stay tuned!

Wasn't that a great way to start off 2014, my little scientific prodigies? A brand new EI! Life truly doesn't get any better -- unless there's chocolate involved. That's been scientifically proved. Well, that's all for today, but be sure to tune in next week for more report-y goodness! You can see all these lovely evolutions and more in La Victoire. And don't forget to vote in our Weekly EI Poll and let us know what you think! See you next week!

04 Last chance to grab Checkmate Tactics: Endgame!
Hello, Gaians. I figured it was finally safe to come out after having lived under the Table for several weeks now. To be perfectly honest, I was starting to fear permanent injury to my spine. A few days ago I emerged from under the Table briefly in order to abscond with a few snacks and there was a distinctive hunch that I am fairly sure I didn't possess earlier in the month. Or maybe I did? I don't know, honestly. Time moves differently under the Table. Everything is different. I found myself asking a lot of deep questions while I was under that glorious wooden surface. Who was I, really? Who are we? Why did the Table sacrifice its own well-being to protect me? Why was I under there in the first place? At least I knew the answer to that last question. There was a war going on outside! And the Table had given me visions, Gaians! Such visions of lovely rewards, the likes of which I've never seen before!

Of course, it all turned out to be a serious case of hysterics and not actual enlightenment. But at least the Checkmate Tactics: Endgame war has seemed to have died out some! I suspect the battle will be officially over on January 9, 11:59 PM EST. Perhaps you'd like to show off your skill in combat before everything dies down? Just don't involve me in your fights. In fact, I'm going back under the Table. It just feels... right, somehow.

05 Wisteria Sea for sale in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Um. Hi. Or whatever. So, I got something to say. Despite what I told Jet, I did make a new year's resolution. It's, uh... kind of lame. But whatever, new year's resolutions are always super lame. I want to be more artistic, I guess. Make, uh... you know. Pretty things. Or cool things. Whatever. Look, here is a thing I made, okay?

-

I think it's my best piece so far. Still practicing. So, you know. Go easy on me. But I like it. Purple is a good color. Best color, I guess. Not that I'm biased or whatever. Anyway, uh. I'm calling it Wisteria Sea. I didn't make a whole lot of 'em, so they're gonna be in the shop until January 5th, 11:59 PM EST. Gonna go work on some other things now. Go bother Jet if you need some help in La Victoire. Unless you need something from a high shelf. Then you can bother me, or whatever. Try not to.

05 Alchemy Formula sale in La Victoire!
Right. Hello Gaians, or whatever you choose to call yourselves. Given that it's a brand new year, I believe you all should resolve to become better alchemists. I understand that it's difficult to feel motivated when you realize you'll never be as gifted as myself, but just use my amazing talents as inspiration for you to improve your own meager skills. But I'm not entirely unsympathetic to your plight, I suppose—well, mostly I got fed up with Nicolae's complaining on your behalf, but either or. Which is why I've arranged a little sale on some Alchemy formulas that I recently managed to discover. Let's take a look, shall we?

The following formulas will be available in La Victoire:


 * • Formula 1: Angelic Quest Inizio
 * • Formula 1: Demonic Quest Inizio
 * • Formula 1: Risen Quest Inizio
 * • Formula 1: Fallen Quest Inizio
 * • Formula 1: Celestial Quest Inizio
 * • Formula 1: Devilish Quest Inizio

I'll be allowing these to be put up for sale until January 5, 11:59 PM EST, at which point my sense of mercy will most likely diminish. Visit La Victoire to pick up this formulas and anything else, I suppose. Then be sure to visit the Bifrost to browse our amazing selection of Alchemy goods. Just remember that I don't answer any questions directed at me.

06 Midnight Countess for sale in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Hey. So, I'm tryin' really hard to stick to my new year's resolution this year, you know? It's rough. For every half-decent item I manage to create there's like, a huge bundle of terrible attempts before it. I'm pretty sure I saw Jet laughing at me at one point. Or maybe he was laughing at cartoons. I don't know, I wasn't really paying attention. Anyway, I've been practicing. And, uh. I managed to make a thing, I guess. I like how it came out. Take a look:

-

Not bad. I'm calling it Midnight Countess, and I think it's pretty neat. I worked hard on it. So, uh. I don't know. I guess visit La Victoire, if that's what you want. Maybe take a look. I only made enough to have it on the shelves until January 7th, 11:59 PM EST, so I guess drop by soon if you're interested in supporting my attempts at being more artistic. Or whatever. You don't have to. I don't care.

But it would be nice.

07 Rosamund and Princess sale in La Victoire!
Hi, Gaians! Look, could you guys settle an argument for me? You guys all know that Cygnus is a (creepily) huge fan of Rosamund and her story, right? He's not very talkative but the dude is a real sucker for romance when you get right down to it, even if he'll deny it until he's even more purple in the face. But me? Eh, I don't know. I could take or leave Rosamund, honestly. I prefer the various incarnations of Gaia's other Princess! She's just so haughty, you know? I dig that kind of attitude. Anyway, Cygnus and I were debating which princess was better. I mean, obviously I'm right. I'm always right. But he proposed a pretty cool idea: why don't we have kind of a sale battle and see who comes out on top? Let me remind you of all the amazing players we've got in this "fight":

-

That's right! We'll be selling the lovely Rosamund's Garland Bundle and the Princess Voyage Bundle right here in La Victoire, as well as the individual items! And don't forget that each bundle comes with its own amazing exclusive: Rosamund's Rage and Princess of the Woods! So why not visit La Victoire and pick your favorite princess? We're only gonna have these items on our shelves until 11:59 PM EST tonight, so stop by soon and make your opinion known!

08 EI Bundles for sale in La Victoire!
Hey hey, Gaians! So, I was chatting with Dr. Singh recently -- you know, about evil genius kind of stuff -- when we got on to the topic of EIs. They're pretty fascinating, huh? I don't get the science behind how they work but apparently Dr. Singh is, like, super into it. She seems nice though, and we decided why not celebrate her amazing research right here at La Victoire? So Cygnus and I put in some pretty long hours, just preparing for this totally awesome sale we've been planning. And you know what? I think all of our effort really paid off. We've got bundles galore on our shelves right now, each of them filled to the brim with past EI favorites! Here, wanna see? Take a look!

-

Lots to choose from, huh? Don't worry! We packaged all these astounding scientific discovers into some themed bundles for easy pickin'! We've got the Antique Evolving Item Bundle for those of you who like to kick it old school, the Charming Evolving Item Bundle for all you lovely damsels, the Heroic Evolving Item Bundle for you tough guys, and the very special Gambler's Evolving Item Bundle! The Gambler's Evolving Item Bundle can contain any of the bundles listed above, or you might just get the rare Super Evolving Item Bundle, filled with gorgeous recolors of popular EIs! We'll have these great bundles until January 9th, 11:59 PM, so why not stop by La Victoire and peruse our ever evolving inventory? Haha! Didja get that? I said evolving, see? It's a joke. ... What? Cygnus, stop making that face at me, you big lug.

08 Cash Shop Update: Sisters of Destiny Bundle!
Do you guys ever wonder if we have power over our own destinies? No, serious question here! 'Cause, you know, sometimes... I feel like I'm not entirely in control of my own actions. At least that's the excuse I usually give Cygnus every time I claw up all the furniture, although I'm not entirely sure he's buying it anymore. But sometimes I do wonder if there isn't some invisible hand guiding us along a predetermined path. Was I always fated to be as amazing as I am now? I mean, I can only assume that was the case. Cats like me don't just become awesome, we're born that way. But if there is something -- or someone -- who determines our destiny, you gotta wonder what they'd be like. That's some real power, you know? And these are some deep thoughts. Next thing you know I'm gonna be as grumpy and sullen as Cygnus. Man, that's truly a fate worse than death. But how can I be sad when I've got so much excitement in my life right now? We've got a gorgeous new bundle here in La Victoire, so please say hello to the three lovely siblings of the Sisters of Destiny Bundle!

-

Chrysanthe's Fountain: The elegant Chrysanthe is as renowned for her beauty as she is for her wisdom. A sip from her fountain is said to grant eternal life, and each mortal's spirit is born from within it. She loves nothing more than to watch the lives of mortals unfold in the rippling waters of her fountain, even though she already knows how everything will play out. Includes her flowing gown, strapped shoes, cape, golden wreath, regal hair, and water of life fountain.

Chara's Spirit: Chara is by far the most joyful of the sisters, a happy grin never seeming to fade from her face. Chara makes sure every mortal stays on their destined path, and although her work as an enforcer of fate is never ceasing, she always maintains a playful attitude as she flits about carrying out her responsibilities. Includes her short toga, winged legs, wrist cuffs, rippling sash, tiered updo, and cheerful smile.

Antigone's Hourglass: Antigone is by far the most somber of the three sisters, responsible for leading the spirits of the dead back to the life-giving waters of Chrysanthe's fountain so that they can be reborn once more. Quiet and foreboding, Antigone takes her responsibility as a shepherd of departed souls very seriously, as without her the souls of the dead would forever wander the world aimlessly and alone. Includes her chest plate, skirt, armored boots, dynamic cape, wavy black hair, and precious hourglass belted around her waist.

Available exclusively in the Sisters of Destiny Bundle is the utterly adorable Kamera the Chimera! Although he might seem a little bit frightening at first, this friendly little fellow is as sweet as they come! Includes his tiny blue wings as a pose for you!

Really makes you think, huh? Well, I definitely think this bundle was fated to be put on our shelves, 'cause it's way too amazing to ignore. Come visit La Victoire and see it for yourself!

09 Novice Sister and Sisters Sale in La Victoire!
Cygnus: So, hi. Me again. Working on perfecting this whole "artistic" thing. I think I've got aspects of it down. Y'know. Struggling. Angsty. I'm good at those things. But the actual "art" part is harder than I figured it would be. Still, I've been practicing a lot. And, you know. For every bajillion failures, sometimes I strike upon something good. I'm pretty pleased with this new recolor I've created. I can show it to you guys, I guess. If you wanna see. Here:

-

So, we're gonna be selling a whole bunch of the Sister items in La Victoire to celebrate my newest masterpiece.

09 The seal is weakening on January's Advance Chance!
Huh? What day is it? Sorry, I must've lost track of the time... I've been so focused on using my Waxwane 8491V00H Office Calculating Machine to tabulate up all my accounts receivable that I've not been paying attention to anything else! Ah, the allure of a calculator. Its siren song is too tempting to resist. Well, it seems like enough time has passed—perhaps the seal on the Advance Chance has weakened some? Let's take a little peek and see how January's Advance Chance is coming along...

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the January Advance Chance. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

Oh yes! That definitely has more wiggle in it that it had earlier. I suspect that the seal will be completely broken early tomorrow. Will my theory be correct? Most likely! I've already run the numbers on my trusty Waxwane and that machine never fails. But I suppose we'll find out soon! Be sure to stop by La Victoire and collect a few Advance Chances for yourself!

10 Help Artemis reach new heights in Nouvelle Lune!
Strange things are afoot, Gaians. Here, look up -- see that? I’ve never seen a moon so bright before! Although its luminous beauty is certainly entrancing, I find it a little unusual that it’s so visible in the -- hang on, let me check my watch -- eeearly afternoon. I mean I’ve seen the moon during the day before, given that it’s not exactly an uncommon occurrence if one is as an avid a sky watcher as I am, but this is really beyond the pale! What could have caused such a strange celestial conundrum? Well, I can only assume that the moon has brightened its inspiring glow in support of this month’s stellar CI, Nouvelle Lune! I, for one, fully intend to take full advantage of this amazing situation. I'm going to park myself right here and refuse to budge until the moon fades from the sky. Why? Well, it's my personal belief that basking in the glow of a moon gives you stronger bones! And since my fragile accountant's skeleton is so incredibly frail, I'm going to probably be here a while. Are you interested in moonbathing with me? I mean, who knows what you might discover under its pale rays! Maybe it won't make your bones stronger, but you might be able to find a Cash Shop favorite, a valuable rare item, or one of these sparkling new exclusives:

-

Funny, isn't it? I always just assumed the moon was something of a loner. How strange to find it beaming in brilliant solidarity! Well, if you're interested in enjoying this bizarre phenomenon with me, why not try your hand at a Nouvelle Lune? Or if you're feeling particularly motivated, you could pick up a bundle of nine to really take it all in! I'll be lounging in this chair over here, absorbing all these glorious rays, if you need me.

Bask in the Nouvelle Lune!

10 EI Report: Tale of Clarion and Josie's Journey!
Friday at last, my little crumpets of science-y deliciousness! We've got an amazing report today that is sure to whet your appetite for further Evolving Item research. In fact, I'd hazard to say that the report this week features evolutions that are just mouth wateringly incredible. I suppose I ought to apologize for all the food-related commentary, it's just that I'm feeling a little bit peckish. I've been working so hard all week that I've hardly had any time to eat! Still, there's nothing more rewarding than seeing all your efforts pay off. The evolutions this week from Tale of Clarion and Josie's Journey are so fantastic that it makes all those skipped meal breaks totally worth it! Let's take a look, shall we?

-

Tale of Clarion: Our heroes continued to make their way across the strange new land, wary of avoiding any traps or obstacles. But as they carefully picked their way through the dangerous path, the pair encountered a terrifying monster that towered over them all. With their enchanted armor and gift of sight, however, the heroes made short work of their attacker. Much to their surprise, the nightmarish creature was protecting a massive hoard of gold! Now wealthy beyond their wildest dreams, the pair continued on their journey with their bags brimming with coins and treasure.

Josie's Journey: Josie grew up in a crowded, dingy city. Even though she'd always wanted to travel and see the world, Josie spent most of her younger years studying at home -- she had never even left the city once! Her heart yearned for adventure and exploration, but instead Josie focused on her college applications like the hardworking student she was. However, while out picking up some groceries one day, Josie spied a pop of bright color out of the corner of her eye. A fashionable jacket was being displayed in the window of a small boutique, and Josie fell in love with the trendy, vibrant coat instantly. It took weeks of saving and scrimping, but Josie finally managed to buy that jacket right off the mannequin. Inspired by its flashy colors and unique features, Josie decided it was finally time to follow her dreams and travel as much as she could! After all, there was a great big world out there. And Josie planned to see it all!

My goodness, wasn't that just an appetizing display? I might even be drooling right now. Or perhaps that's a side effect of the pills I was taking to stay up for 72 hours at a time? Either way, it's nothing a little Science Bib can't handle! That's all for our EI report today, but be sure to stop by again next week when we'll have even more incredible discoveries to discuss. You can find these Evolving Items and lots more over at La Victoire! And don't forget to vote in this week's EI Poll and let us know what you think. See you next Friday, you decadent little morsels!

13 Flash Sale in La Victoire!
Hey hey, Gaians! So, I just had a pretty interesting experience. It's been pretty cold out lately, and so Cygnus thought he ought to invest in some little booties to keep my dainty paws all snug and warm. Big mistake. I couldn't walk in the dang things! I just kept slipping and sliding all over, shaking my legs and feelin' pretty miserable. For some reason Cygnus was filming it, too? I'm not sure why. He was snickering an awful lot. ... Now that I think about, I'm not sure Cygnus bought those little cat shoes just to keep my feet warm. That huge jerk. Well, joke's on him! That embarrassing little diversion gave me a great idea for a sale. Check it out!

Bunny Slippers and Chicky Slippers can keep even the iciest of toesies nice and cozy! And they're a heck of a lot more fashionable than those stupid booties that Cygnus bought me. But what about your head? Don't want that getting chilly either! No worries, I've got you covered. We'll also be selling Mini Angel Wings and Mini Nitemare Wings right here in La Victoire! These snug little items will be on sale until January 13, 11:59 PM EST so why not stop by and come in from the cold?

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go plan my revenge against Cygnus.

14 Opera Magnifique Bundle and Gaia Cast Collection Bundle Sale
Aloha, Gaians! Jet here, just doin' some thinking. Our shop is starting to look a little packed, huh? I kinda wanna clean a few things out. I've been eyeing a couple of items in particular, I have to admit. Remember these bundles? They had all sorts of awesome things in them, take a look!

As much as it pains me to part with them, I think it's time for the Opera Magnifique Bundle and the Gaia Cast Collection Bundle to head off to that big ranch in the sky, where they can play with all the other retired bundles and they get to eat all the chocolate they want. You know, that place. So, to make sure we send both these amazing bundles off with a bang, we're going to be selling the Opera Magnifique Bundle and Gaia Cast Collection Bundle for 50% off until they're out of La Victoire!

17 EI Report: Tale of Clarion and Josie's Journey!
Happy Friday, boys and girls! I trust we all had a nice, productive week? I certainly did. Amazing what you can accomplish when you don't give a fig about sleeping, eating, or workplace safety! As usual, I'm here to report on the efforts of my team and myself over at the Evolving Item Labs and all the amazing research we've uncovered over the course of the week. Are you prepared to be amazed? Wearing your safety goggles? Seatbelt? Swanky lab coat? Good! We've got all sorts of science-y goodness from Tale of Clarion and Josie's Journey today, so let's jump right in!

-

Tale of Clarion: Our heroes were now laden down with treasure, enchanted armor, and incredible powers. Surely the Clarion had nothing left to show them? Still, the pair couldn't shake the feeling that their journey was not quite over just yet. An ominous portent fell over the two as they continued to travel across the strange land, something that they couldn't quite explain. There was no obvious, immediate danger, but they just somehow knew that something big -- and powerful -- was lurking in the shadows.

Or perhaps it was just their imaginations...

Josie's Journey: Josie carefully gathered up her belongings as she prepared to start her journey, making sure to pack as light as she could. After all, she didn't have a car. Or a bike. Or anything to travel on, really! It seemed she'd be enjoying her journey on foot -- at least, for a little while. Maybe she could find a used junker in a village somewhere? Either way, Josie was determined not to be deterred. She left a note informing her parents that she was pursuing her dream of traveling outside of her city, took a deep breath, and finally set off.

After what felt like an eternity of walking, Josie turned around and stared at the city she had now left behind her. From this distance it was just a darkened silhouette, a conglomerate of blocky buildings outlined against the blue sky. In front of her was a seemingly endless strip of a road, surrounded on either side by a flat expanse of land. No buildings, no homes -- no civilization. Nothing. For a moment Josie hesitated, a pang of early homesickness twisting her gut. But Josie knew she had to do this. She squared her shoulders, held her head high, and marched onwards. It felt almost as if something was calling for her out there, and she was going to find it.

Wasn't that splendid, my little scientific chums? Truly, you don't get quality like this from any other lab! Unfortunately that's all we have for today, but please tune in next Friday for more glorious science! You can see all these gorgeous items and more at La Victoire, and don't forget to vote in our Weekly EI Poll for your favorite items! See you all next Friday!

18 Runcible Spoon Renewal now for sale in La Victoire
Cygnus: Uh. Hi. Me again. Still tryin' new things, or whatever. Making art. Sort of. Attempting to, anyway. Been going okay, I guess. Hard to focus when Jet keeps insisting on sleeping on my lap when I'm trying to work. Managed to get something done, though. Wanna see? Whatever, here it is anyway.

-

I'm calling it Runcible Spoon Renewal. Because it represents my renewed interest in artistry. Or something. I don't know, I'm not great with names. I think the item came out pretty nice, though. Nothin' like the classic colors, you know? I hope so, at least. I tried. I guess that's what counts. I also recolored one of the dolls -- gonna call it SDPlus #485 Runcible Spoon Renewal. Both items are gonna be in the shop until January 19th, 11:59 PM EST so stop by and check it out. Maybe sit around for a while so Jet will sleep in your lap instead of mine. I might be able to get some actual work done that way.

19 Somber Enchanter now for sale in La Victoire!
Cygnus: So, uh. Hi. Still experimentin'. Really digging this whole black/white dichotomy kinda thing, in case you hadn't noticed. Enjoying the contrast. Plus, you know. Symbolic. Or something.

20 Score some great wintry goods with Winter's Tale!
Gaians, I feel I ought to warn you that I don't do particularly well with cold. My poor circulation and tendency to eschew traditional business wear and exclusively don short-sleeved shirts doesn't allow me much warmth, I'm afraid. The winter months are nothing but a source of misery as a result, and no amount of hot coffee or using Mr. Bibbles as a portable body heater seem to do me any good. Alas, if only I could invest in some more seasonally appropriate duds! Or maybe some heat for my apartment. Unfortunately, most of my income is currently tied up in a business venture -- something about a scheme to build pyramids, I honestly had trouble following what the guy was saying -- and so it seems that I'm doomed to spend my next few weeks chilled to the bone. But I can save you Gaians from the same fate! Would you like to spend this season both fashionably and comfortably? Then perhaps you ought to look into the brand new Winter's Tale CI, brimming with goods totally appropriate for the weather! Here, see for yourself:

-

Such snaziness! Also, I've looked inside these wondrous items and I was shocked to discover that their contents were entirely all new! It truly warms my heart. But not my hands. Or nose. Or feet. Oh dear. Well, never mind that. Releasing the lovely Winter's Tale is enough to fill me with cheer! So, please drop by La Victoire if you'd like to check out this amazing item yourself. We even have it available in a bundle pack for those looking to really stock up for the season! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to find myself a nice steam grate to hunch over.

20 Divinity's Reach is back!
Hello, Gaians! We heard tell that someone—ahem, Cygnus—has been bandying about the word "divinity" without using it to reference our own incredible visages. Hmph.

21 Ready to win big at a Toga Party?
Y'know, I've always had a soft spot in my heart for Ancient Greece. I mean, what's cooler than a bunch of dudes walking around in ten foot long sheets, philosophizing about drinkin' some hemlock and then watching a good old-fashioned play about marrying your mom? Stuff is deep, man. Needless to say, I've got a pretty deep and abiding respect for Ancient Grecian mythology, customs, and best of all -- clothes! Unfortunately they don't make any cat-sized togas so I can't join in the festivities, but that's not gonna stop me from throwing an awesome Toga Party anyway! I mean, what better way to celebrate centuries of amazing culture than with a totally wicked shindig? I feel like the ancient Greeks would've appreciated it. Anyway, I've got some pretty sweet loot available at my party. Here, take a peek!

-

We've got oodles of goodies you could win: anything from the Gift of the Gods, Golden Wings, and even Golden Laurels! So, you guys in? Ready to party up? Heck yeah you are!

Oh, and if you really wanna party hard, you might wanna consider getting a Toga Party Bundle. See you there!

Toga! Toga! Toga!

21 Club Verge and La Victoire are partnering up!
Hello again, my friendly Gaian chums! Your humble P.U.G. returns once more with incredibly exciting news! As you all know, there is nothing I enjoy more than sharing my wonderful wares with as many users as possible. Why else would I have entered this business? And so I am delighted to inform you that I've partnered up with Jet and Cygnus from La Victoire. Admittedly I was reluctant to consider their proposal (I never trust a cat, friends, at least not at first) but the prospect of spreading my love of stylish finery to a greater audience was too much too resist. What does this mean? Allow me to elaborate! Going forward, Vergers will be at the forefront of the fashion world by receiving early access to select fabulous items—seven days early, in fact! -- before those items are then placed into La Victoire.

Now, what better way to celebrate all this wonderful news than with a sale?

Stellar Night, Exalted Arc, His Animosity, Her Illumination, Herbalist Lavenda, and Silkrose Stroll will all be making their triumphant return to Club Verge's shelves at a 10% discount! They'll be in the shop until January 21, 11:59 PM EST, so please drop by and pay me a visit if you have the time! You know I always enjoy seeing your lovely faces.

Adieu, mes amies! Adieu!

21 Divnity's Reach Super Bundle now in La Victoire!
Ugh! The audacity of some people, Gaians! You wouldn't believe the dirty looks Cygnus is throwing us after we politely called him out earlier. Jet told us that glowering is just "his normal face" but we refuse to accept such excuses. We are positive that he is jealous of our sparkling beauty and that he intends to take it out on us by tossing us sour glares whenever he can! Well, that's fine. Two—or three, in this case—can play at that game. We'll show him that we're the greatest shopkeepers Gaia's ever seen! How? By offering an amazing deal on Divinity's Reach, with the simply heavenly Divinity's Reach Super Bundle!

Divinity's Reach is full of heavenly rewards, from sacks of gold to beautiful, super rare items! You can score up to five million gold, a popular Chance Item, one of a variety of gorgeous backwings, or possibly even a valuable 2003 Monthly Collectible! And with the incredible Divinity's Reach Super Bundle, you can get 12 Divinity's Reach for a price that is utterly divine! But we can't offer a deal this amazing for too long, so the Super Bundle will leave La Victoire by 11:59 PM EST tonight! Still, it should be more than enough to keep that big, purple jerk from making faces at us! See you at La Victoire!

22 Loving and Loathing Sale in La Victoire!
You know what I love? You guys. No, I do! I'm not one for the touchy-feely stuff, but honestly you Gaians make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. But you know what I loathe? Feeling warm and fuzzy. I'm super conflicted right now guys, you have no idea. I'm on an emotional rollercoaster of FEELINGS and SENTIMENT and it's just. Ugh. I can't decide if it's the worst or the best thing ever. My brain is overloading here, kids. But, y'know, brain overloads can lead to brainstorms... And so I had an idea! Why not sift through my emotional turmoil with a sale themed around how I'm feeling? Oh yeah. Sounds good. So, we're gonna be having a little "Loving" and "Loathing" sale here in La Victoire! Take a look!

-

You might've noticed a few new faces (literally) amongst some old friends! That's right: we're not only selling Loving Manner and Loathing Style, but we'll also be selling two recolors of each! You can snag yourself a Tender Loving Manner and Gentle Loving Manner if you're feeling lovey-dovey, or a Fierce Loathing Style and Bitter Loathing Style if you're like Cygnus and like frowning at people a lot. The choice is yours! But if you're having trouble deciding between them all, we'll also be offering the totally awesome Loving Bundle and Loathing Bundle! The sale is only until January 24th at 11:59pm EST though, because I'm hoping to have my feelings sorted out by then. Otherwise I'm worried I might end up going a little crazy. So, hey! See you around La Victoire, ya hear?

22 It's best o' bundles galore at La Victoire!
Augh! Help! Help me! I'm drownin' in bundles here! I don't know where they all came from -- I put in an order for one or two and instead this buy guy Lance brought me like a BAJILLION of them and said something about "here is your giant package!" and I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. All I know is the shop is so stuffed full of bundles that I can barely move! I'm literally swimming in 'em! Can you guys help me move some of this extra inventory? Here, I'll show you all the amazing items we just accidentally got in stock.

-

As far as I can tell, we've received way too much of includes the following bundles:


 * • Mad Science Bundle
 * • Masked Deception Bundle
 * • Angelic Item Bundle
 * • Breezy Love Bundle
 * • Animated Item Bundle 3
 * • Demonic Date Bundle
 * • Love of Tea Bundle
 * • Bows and Bolts Bundle
 * • Forgotten Pages Bundle

And the crazy thing is that's not even all of it! We've also got the Best of Bundles Surprise, which can include any of the bundles listed above (excluding Angelic Item Bundle) or -- if you're lucky! -- a chance to win the Princess Voyage Bundle or the Marionette Bundle! I'm really hoping to get rid of all these bundles (boy am I already sick of that word) by January 23rd, 11:59 PM EST, so please drop in before then and save me from this tidal wave of crazy.

22 Puppeteer's Insatiable Reprise for sale in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Yo. Uh. Hope you're all doing well. Or something. I'm trying to be... friendlier. Jet says I have to, because my scary face intimidates customers. Or whatever. To be honest, I hate this already. So I'm gonna stop. So, uh. Here. I made a thing. Take a look, if that's what you want.

-

The red is symbolic of my annoyance with Jet. I guess. I also just like red, so. You know. Take it as you will. It's called Puppeteer's Insatiable Reprise and it's available now at La Victoire until January 23rd, 11:59 PM EST. So, I guess come by, if that's what you want.

22 Cash Shop Update: Turbulent Waters Bundle!
Yo ho yo ho, a pirate's life for me! Or you know. Maybe not. Since I don't really like water or anything, I'm pretty much as landlocked as they come. But I like to pretend! Don a jaunty little eyepatch. Drink some ice tea and pretend it's rum. You know -- the usual kind of stuff! And of course there's all the lootin' and pillaging, the actual pirate business. That normally entails running into Cygnus' room, loading up with whatever I can get my paws on, and then dashing back out before the big lug can really register what's going on. Boy, does it tick him off! It's pretty dang great. Just like pirates! Which is why I've got this great new bundle for sale, celebrating everything it is to be a scurvy ol' scourge of the seven seas! Let's take a look at the Turbulent Waters Bundle, shall we?

-

Madame Rouge: A fearsome pirate who is as beautiful as she is dangerous! She's determined to prove herself, regardless of her gender. Her goal? To use her mysterious necklace and have it lead her to a lost race of of aquatic humanoids -- and all their glorious treasure! Includes her pirate coat, ruffled shirt, pants and boots, sword, flowing scarlet hair, and trademark rouge lips.

Mysterious Captain: This devilish seadog's smirk always looks somehow familiar, but he never stays long enough in one place for anyone to recognize him. He travels from port to port, breaking hearts and stealing coin, until he's off to sea once more in search of a lost lady love who set sail many years ago. Includes his feathered hat, jabot, long coat, ginger hair, smokey eye makeup, and a handsome pirate stance.

Moana the Azure Porpoise: Moana is a porpoise with purpose: to be your friend! She comes with plenty of poses to make sure you both have lots of fun on the high seas. Includes her beautiful eyes so you can match her gaze!

Available exclusively in the Turbulent Waters Bundle is the captivating Azure Guidance! This strange necklace possesses the one who wears it, opening their eyes to the ancient history of a lost people.

So awesome. Am I right? Of course I am. Man, this totally gives me a hankering to go put on that old eyepatch, lemme tell ya. I think Cygnus hid it somewhere but that just means I get to go on a treasure hunt! You can check out this great bundle at La Victoire, so I hope to see you there real soon!

23 What does the fox sell? Find out at La Victoire!
So, okay. I've got something to say to everyone, so I need y'all to put on your listenin' caps and lean in real close. I've been hearing rumors around the water cooler that, apparently, people are very curious as to what foxes say. Inordinately so, in fact. Like, it's borderline unhealthy. I'm worried about your welfare, people. Have you ever actually listened to a fox? The noises they make! They're... they're unholy. Me and my buddy Sly, you know, we can be conversatin' on all cheerful like when suddenly he starts letting out these yowls and screams that are absolutely TERRIFYING. And no, they don't sound anything like "Gering-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding! Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow! Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho! Joff-tchoff-tchoff-tchoffo-tchoffo-tchoff!" before you get any sort of crazy ideas. C'mon guys! That's just insulting to us fuzzy, adorable, four-legged mammals. I don't go around making silly sounds and shouting "WHAT DO THE GAIANS SAY" or whatever. But look, I'm a good guy. I like to think of myself as an educator. So hey, Sly is looking for a good home -- along with some of my other animal chums -- and so I figure, why not help you guys learn what noises foxes (and other animals) actually make? Also, I'm pretty sure Cygnus has some old dolls he probably doesn't want anymore, and I kind of want revenge on him for talkin' bad about me in his "art" posts, sooo... Let's see what we've got, shall we?

-

We'll be offering the following adorable pets for sale:


 * • Sly the Black Fox
 * • Kintaro the Shiba Inu
 * • Custard the Kitten
 * • Melchior the Meowl
 * • Cartier the Dragon

And these super collectible toys that I'm totally positive Cygnus won't miss! Probably.


 * • SDPlus #424 Renard
 * • SDPlus #099 Kanoko
 * • SDPlus #176 Thief
 * • SDPlus #251 Aiden
 * • SDPlus #418 Melody

Prepare yourself for a real symphony of animal noises, friends. Our neighbors are gonna absolutely hate us! It'll be totally awesome. Thankfully, they won't have to put up with the cacophony for long, since this sale ends January 24th, 11:59 PM EST. Drop by if you'd like! See you around!

23 Flynn's Booty and Chest are back!
Ahoy, Gaians! I heard tell that there was some bundle based on pirates now available in La Victoire, but pssh—those crazy kids ain't pirates! Where's the flashy spaceship? The eye-searing magenta? The kick butt stompy boots good for punting people out the airlock? I tell ya, these guys don't know anything about being a proper privateer! So I'm visiting for a bit, here to show everyone the true meaning of piracy! And what better way to flex my scallywag muscle than to offer up a little of my precious booty and chest? So, I'm going to be putting Flynn's Booty and Flynn's Chest in La Victoire until January 23, 11:59 PM EST to give you all a taste of what it truly means to be a space pirate. Each Booty has the chance to contain up to 100 million gold, and my Chest contains up to 250 million gold! Not only that, but I'm going to be offering my chest for some amazing discounts. You can score twelve Flynn's Chests for 40% off, six Flynn's Chests for 30% off, or an individual Flynn's Chest for 25% off! A pirate's life is truly for me, eh?

Visit La Victoire!

23 Flynn's Booty and Chest are leaving La Victoire soon!
Yohoho, Gaians! Just here to tell you I gotta be launching back into space pretty soon. I mean, those vessels aren't exactly going to pirate themselves, you know? You'd think there would be an automated process for commandeering a ship and seizing all their assets already, but nope. Gotta do all the hard work myself. So, I'm just reminding you that my precious Flynn's Booty and Flynn's Chest are only going to be in La Victoire until January 23, 11:59 PM EST... that's only a couple hours from now! Each Booty has the chance to contain up to 100 million gold, and my Chest contains up to 250 million gold! So why not open one and see how much you win? It's probably a heck of a lot easier than piracy!

24 It's Dr. Singh's greatest experiment: Theory of Evolution
Gaians, I've... I've done it. I've created something so mind bogglingly brilliant, so astoundingly amazing, so scientifically genius that is bound to absolutely blow your mind. Einstein? Mendeleev? Newton? Hacks! The whole lot of them! Nothing they ever came up with even comes close to rivaling my new, greatest experiment: the Theory of Evolution! Yes, okay -- perhaps the name isn't the most original, but my theory is completely different from anything Darwin conjured up! Using my amazing new theory, I've created a device that -- through completely scientific means that have nothing even remotely to do with with the wizard I keep trapped in the basement of the EI Labs -- randomly recreates an Evolving Item or Rapidly Evolving Item from the past and delivers it directly to your inventory! Don't believe me? BEHOLD, empirical evidence!

-

That's right, you could win EIs such as The Case of Pietro and Zodiacal, REIs like Sainte Ciel: Agape or Little Lucie, and tons more to boot! It's almost too good to be true, but it is. I swear! Except maybe you guys could help me test it out a bit? You know, be my sample group. I'd really appreciate the help! Once I collect all my results I can submit a paper to Evolutionary Theorist Monthly and they'll have to publish it. They all laughed at me, but I'll show them! I'll show them all! So why not aid the march of scientific progress and pick up a Theory of Evolution CI? They'll be in La Victoire until January 26th, 11:59 PM EST because I need to gather my data fast if I want to submit my research in time. Help an excited scientist out!

Let the great experiment BEGIN!

24 Great stuff for guys on sale at La Victoire!
You know, Gaians, being cute and fluffy definitely has its perks. People wanna pick you up and carry you places, you get some really nice chin scratchies, and folks naturally assume that you never do anything wrong 'cause you're so gosh darn adorable! I admit, it's worked out pretty well for me. But sometimes I do wish I was a little... tougher. More masculine. Y'know -- all vests and ties and big scary muscles, whippin' around a giant sword as if it weighed no more than a toothpick. Sometimes I do pretend a toothpick is a giant sword, but honestly it's really just not the same. Cygnus only gets mildly annoyed when I poke him with it instead of grievously injured. Sigh. Well, you know. In celebration of my masculine ideal, I figured I oughta hold a sale featurin' everything I think to be pretty manly! Check out what we've got:

-

That's right! Cruel Cleaner, The Somber Ringmaster, Bitter Sweets, Hero's Manner, Blade of the Night Sky, and Devil's Spice will all be on sale right here in La Victoire! Man, I feel like flexin' my biceps just looking at these things. You know, if I had anything to actually flex. Maybe I'll get Cygnus to flex for me. Anyway, these will all be on sale until January 24th, 11:59 PM EST, so stop by and we'll... I don't know! Grill up some steaks! Talk about some football! Go yachting!

That's manly stuff, right? ... Right?

24 Divinity Court Veronique for sale in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Okay, so. Feelin' bit less angry lately. Don't know why. Ate a good waffle. Assuming it is related to that, since I like breakfast food. A lot. So, uh. Decided to color something else again today. Made it a little prettier. Softer. Nice. Um. I guess I can show you, if you want.

-

It's uh. Blue. And white. Like a nice sky. Or something. I named it Divinity Court Veronique and it'll be available until 11:59pm EST January 25th, if you're interested in taking a look.

24 EI Report: Josie's Journey and Tale of Clarion!
Greetings, my lovely little muffins of science-y deliciousness! I've been having just an amazing week so far. With Gaians helping to test out my groundbreaking new Theory of Evolution, I've been collating so much data that I've never felt happier! I've even brought in some extra help; that guy Ivan sure is handy with a calculator. But don't worry, guys -- no matter how excited I am to conduct a new experiment, I will never forget my one true love and passion. Evolving Item reports are practically my raison d'etre, and we've got such an fascinating one to get through this week that I scarcely know where to start! Not only has Josie's Journey experienced another remarkable evolution, but Tale of Clarion underwent an absolutely incredible finale! Let's take a look, shall we?

-

Josie's Journey: Josie continued to plod along the path, her feet growing more and more sore as she wandered. The occasional small town dotted the road she walked, but they were so few and far between that Josie could barely muster the energy to get excited for them. Maybe she just hadn't traveled far enough from her city yet? Just as Josie was beginning to question her decision to leave home, a sputtering engine and flash of metal rocketed past her. Josie coughed in the dust it raised in its wake, waving a hand in front of her face to clear the air, when she realized something: her bag was gone! Infuriated, Josie set off after the moped at breakneck speed.

No matter how much the thief gassed the engine, he simply couldn't escape Josie's wrath. She easily caught up to the bike and grabbed the thief by his collar, tossing him off as if he weighed nothing at all. Wide-eyed, the thief apologized and begged Josie not to beat him up, offering her a ride to the next town in exchange. Josie considered this for a moment, eyeing her would-be assailant carefully. He seemed just a few years older than her, with spindly arms and legs and not that much muscle. Josie knew she could easily take him down if he tried anything funny. And so she agreed, although she warned her new partner that she was a deadly shot with her earrings if he attempted anything even remotely suspicious. She hopped on the back of his bike and the pair set off to the nearest town, still several days away.

And although neither Josie nor her new friend were aware of it, this was how Josie met her first true love.

Tale of Clarion: The Clarion bell chimed a frightened warning as dark shadows advanced on our heroes. They gripped their weapons tight and exchanged a look, each of them aware that this was the final, climactic battle. With the Clarion ringing in their ears, they swung and hacked, slashed and parried; the shadows were everywhere, but their gift of sight and enchanted armor helped them evade their monstrous claws and magic. Finally, as twilight fell on the strange land, the last of the shadows found its incorporeal body pierced by the heroes' magic weapons. It dissipated with a faint hiss, and the battle was finally over. The heroes had fulfilled the prophecy: they had saved this land from the monsters that tormented it. The Clarion began to peal as a second moon suddenly appeared in the night sky. The heroes stared at it in wonder as the Clarion continued to ring, its music sweet and clear. It was peaceful.

That's it for this Friday's report, but we'll have tons more evolutionary goodness next week! I mean, who knows what will crop up? Please drop by La Victoire if you wish to witness these scientific marvels in person, and don't forget to vote in our Weekly EI Poll when you have the chance! See you next week, science lovers!

25 Sainte Ciel: Thanatos for sale in La Victoire!
Cygnus: So. Some of you may or may not be aware of the fact that I, uh. Really like the Rosamund and Ciel stories. Like. A lot. They're kind of my favorite. So, uh. Anyway. It's a sad story, you know. Tragedy. Loss. Romance. Death. Mourning. Figured I ought to, uh. Pay my respects. Create something that shows how, um. Sad the story is. Or something. That's what I tried to do, anyway. Just take a look or whatever...

-

I'm calling it Sainte Ciel: Thanatos and I'm pretty happy with how it came out. Feels like it does the uh... The characters justice. Or whatever. I also spiffed up the Sainte Ciel doll a little to match. SDPlus #486 Sainte Ciel's Lament has kind of a ring to it. I think. It fits, anyway. So, you know. They're gonna be in La Victoire until 11:59 pm EST January 26th, so. Okay. Drop by. Or whatever.

25 Coin Toss leaves La Victoire soon!

27 It's a mad, mad, mad tea party sale in La Victoire!
Jet: Ahem! The following is an address from Sir Jet of Sparkleton, Duke of the Worcestershire Sauce, Lord of Biscuits! Hello, my good Gaian chums! Do you like tea? I quite like tea! Tea is pretty great! We should all drink tea! Together! Here! Mayhaps with little tiny sandwiches, which are in fact normal sized sandwiches for me, since I am a star kitten and thus am quite small. But for you they shall be most tiny! Ohohohoho! Now then, shall we commence the drinking of the tea? Everyone, dump some totally gross leaves into your boiling hot water and -- hey! Hey! Cygnus, you big lug, put me down!

Cygnus: Uh, guys. I feel like I ought to explain this a little. Jet's been watching a lot of that TV show "Downtown Monastery" and I think it's, like... ruined his brain. Or something. He's been doing this all weekend. Look, what we're trying to say is that we're having a little tea party here at La Victoire. And, uh -- we're celebrating that, too. With bundles. See? Take a look:

-

Cygnus: It's got kind of an Alice in Wonderland vibe to it, mostly because if we had to do an entire tea party themed around Downtown Monastery I think I'd go completely insane. And I, uh. I really don't wanna end up like Jet.

Jet: PISHPOSH, I AM IN FULL CONTROL OF MY CAPACITIES. Put me down this instant! I am a duke!

Cygnus: See what I mean? The bundles are pretty awesome though. We've got the Cheshire Cat Bundle, the Queen of Hearts Bundle, the Mad Hatter Bundle, and the Alice Bundle. We've also got the mysterious Drink Me Eat Me item, which can contain any of the bundles listed above, or even the super rare Unbirthday Party Pack, filled with amazing treasures you're sure to love. These bundles will be in the shop until January 29th, 11:59 PM EST. So uh, stop by, if you'd like. Have some tea. Or don't. But please come. I need help dealing with Jet. Please.

27 Get a head start on February's first CI with Advance Chance!
Ah, the holiday of l'amour. Apparently we can expect its swift, merciless approach some time next month. Nothing like being reminded time and time again of your own horrible, soul-crushing loneliness, is there? No, I certainly enjoy it. I do. I sit down with Mr. Bibbles and a tub of Stenn & Ivin Ice Cream Sad Pops and just... enjoy my own piercing solitude. You see, not every cloud has a silver lining covered in Frills. It's remarkable that I've managed to maintain my svelte figure, as I tend to... indulge as Valentine's Day approaches. I might hit up the BK and the White Qastle—both on the same night. Or just eat a huge bowl of Cirael and call it a day. Afterwards, I like to curl up with a bunch of pillows and realize that I am, and always will be, forever, forever, alone.

Sigh. Well, there's one bright spot on the vast, empty horizon. February's Advance Chance is here, and not a moment too soon!

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the February Advance Chance. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

I've inspected this month's Advance Chance thoroughly, and I am convinced that it's a little different! I believe it's because some old items that have gone below a certain value have been removed. Other than that, however, it appears to be perfectly, wonderfully normal! Huzzah! This is actually making me feel a little bit better, I will admit. You can pick up your own Advance Chance in La Victoire!

Oh, and one more very, very important thing! I've been asked to tell you all that, going forward, there will now be two full CIs every month! Which means I'll have fewer opportunities to dwell on my loneliness and solitude! DOUBLE HUZZAH! Please keep an eye out for our second CI coming later next month!

27 Best of Recolors Sale in La Victoire!
Cygnus: All right, so. Jet is having a little tea party with himself and a bunch of my action figures. I'm just... I'm not gonna touch that. So long as he's happy, or whatever. Gonna focus on my own thing instead. Y'know... my art. And stuff. I've been kind of hitting a wall. Not feeling super motivated, or whatever. So I figured maybe I'll have a sale on the things that inspired me to want to do this kind of art in the first place? Maybe it'll help. So, um. These are some recolors that I like. A lot. Here, it's better if I just show you:

It's kind of a lot of them, but I guess they're um... They're all special to me. So, uh. You probably want to know their names. Okay.


 * Lavish Lucie
 * Ivory Rose
 * Hera's Lace
 * Puriel's Wings
 * Beyond Blush
 * Antique Marionette

We've also got the Marionette Bundle for sale, since that item is, um... Just kind of insanely cool. You know what else is cool? That all those recolors and the Marionette Bundle are going to be sold at a 10% discount. Oh, and I've even tossed my ultimate favorites into the new Recolor Redux Bundle, and since I think they're, um... you know, really awesome, it'll be sold at a 40% discount. So, um. I think that's pretty neat. Maybe even a little inspiring. Startin' to feel the art bug kind of, um... Itching? Maybe it's allergies. I don't know. We'll have all these items in La Victoire until January 28, 11:59 PM EST so I guess come visit. If that's what you want. You can join Jet's little tea party.

Paul's Wings and Tennin's Wings have floated their way to our shelves, and lemme just say they are looking mighty fine up there! Oh, also, that girl Becky?

If you didn't know, Pick A Card is a great way to earn tons of gold and great, valuable items -- but you gotta be careful, 'cause to get the bigger prizes you gotta take the bigger risks!

Maaan, it's chilly outside lately! Why don't people make more cat-sized scarves, mittens, or caps? At least it's nice and cozy inside La Victoire, where the heat is always blasting no matter how much Cygnus complains about the electric bill. You'd think I'd be used to this kind of thing, since I come from the cold reaches of space and all that, but I was kind of hoping Gaia would be like a sunny paradise or something! But, you know, being unable to leave La Victoire because I don't wanna freeze to death outside, it does kind of give me an idea for a sale... A winter-themed one! Do you like bags? Do you like grabbing? How about grabbing bags? Because I am super into that, in case you couldn't tell. So we're gonna be offering a whole bunch of Winter's Grab Bags here at La Victoire, all themed around my least favorite season of all! Check 'em out!

-

We've got three different grab bags on offer, all of them pretty dang cool -- if you'll pardon the pun. Ahem! There's the Small Winter's Grab Bag, which can contain anything from the lovely Winter's Rose to the Prince of Icy Thieves, the Medium Winter's Grab Bag with slightly fancier gear, such as the adorable Dumpling the Bear or Snowy White Lass, and lastly the uber-chic Super Winter's Gift Grab Bag with great prizes such as the spectacular Queen of the Frozen North or even beautiful backwings! With amazing items like these, who cares about how totally icky and gross the weather is? We'll have these grab bags on offer until January 30th, 11:59 PM EST -- mostly because I'm hoping against hope it'll warm up by then. Stay toasty, you crazy kids!

29 The Mad Tea Party ends soon!
Jet: Greetings, Gaians! Our tea party is going most splendidly, wouldn't you say? Such wonderful weather we're having! Perfect for some croquet featuring flamingos and hedgehogs, I would wager. Please, enjoy one of these super dry, unattractively named digestive biscuits! I hear they're absolutely exquisite! Also, please don't ask what happened to dear Mr. Porter -- I found him to be most disagreeable, and so it was off with his head! OHOHOHOHO. Now, where were we...

Cygnus: Uh. Gonna cut in here, before this gets even more creepy. So, Jet is still in this weird tea party phase. I'm kind of at a loss as to what to do. He beheaded one of my action figures for "boxing his ears" or something. I'm genuinely pretty concerned at this point. So, uh. I'm looking to end this tea party as soon as possible, otherwise I'm worried Jet's brains are going to be scrambled. Like, permanently. Or something. Just wanna remind you that when the tea party ends, all of our great Mad Tea Party Bundles leave along with it. Need a reminder of what's inside of 'em? Sure, here you go:

The Mad Hatter Bundle, Alice Bundle, Cheshire Cat Bundle, Queen of Hearts Bundle, and the mysterious Drink Me, Eat Me will only be in the shop until tonight: January 29th, 11:59 PM EST, so maybe consider dropping by some time soon. Um, also, if you actually want tea? Drop by, like... now. 'Cause Jet is pretty much marathon chugging it all. I guess I'll see you at the tea party, or whatever...

30 Chinese New Year Bundles in La Victoire!
Happy Chinese New Year, everyone! Any of you guys get your red envelopes? I asked Cygnus for one but he said he wasn't giving me a single cent until I agreed to replace all the "action figures" (c'mon, buddy, we know they're dolls) that I have either destroyed or sold off. Crazy selfish of him, right? Trying to make this totally awesome holiday about himself! Although I will say that I don't approve of this being the year of the horse. Who the heck likes horses? What about the year of the kitten star? When is it going to finally be our turn? Well, I'm not going to let Cygnus or anything else get me down. I'm gonna celebrate the lunar new year doing what I love: holding a totally awesome sale! That's right, we've got bundles a plenty here at La Victoire, filled with amazing goodies like the ones you see here!

30 New '03 and '04 Recolors in La Victoire!
Hola, Gaians! Y'know, the funny thing about a new year starting is that you kind of can't help reflecting on the past a little. The good times! The bad times! The uber cool items of years gone by! And while I'm usually not one for reflection, I do enjoy a good traipse down memory lane every now and again if said memories are filled with some sparkly, shimmery items of Gaia's history. Which gave me a great idea -- why not start off this new year with a little visit from some items that helped make the past years so great? So I put together a few things, and voila! New mini wings, scarves, and laurels!

-

We've got some awesome new recolors of some old Gaia favorites now stocked on our shelves: the lovely Ebon Laurels, Pure White Mini Angel Wings, Abyss Mini Angel Wings, Pure White Angelic Scarf, and the Abyss Angel Scarf! But that's not all, as we're also going to be selling the Angelic Scarf, Angelic Mini Wings, and the Golden Laurels in La Victoire as well! We even put together some cute grab bags for you guys so you can get all your favorites easy peasy: the Angelic Scarf Grab Bag, the Mini Angel Wings Grab Bag, the Golden Laurels Bag, and lastly the Classic Recolor Grab Bag for anyone looking to own the whole great collection! Wanna know something kind of neat about these Grab Bags? There's a rare chance to open one up and actually find an Angelic Halo inside of them instead! Pretty weird, huh? So why not stop on by La Victoire and take a look at our fine wares? These items will be in stock until Jan 30th 2014 at 11:59pm EST, and we'd love to see you there!

30 Make a wish with Lunar Sky Lanterns and Fortune Cookies!
So, the Lunar New Year party is still going strong here at La Victoire! It's been a blast so far! Also, I have to say that I look amazing in red. I mean, obviously every color looks great on me, but it's a real nice complement to my luxurious, sparkling fur! Anyway, I've already eaten like a gajillion yuanbao and I'm feeling pretty stuffed, but I'm not ready to end this party just yet! So, to keep the festivities rolling right along, we're having a little lantern festival here at La Victoire, and we're celebrating it with some beautiful Lunar Sky Lanterns and some super yummy Lunar Fortune Cookies -- and, of course, all the great prizes you could win from either!

-

Pretty neat, right? Let me fill you in on all the details! With your Lunar Sky Lantern in hand, all you have to do is make a wish to receive either gold or items and you could win up to 250 million gold or valuable items such as the Ancient Katana, Herbalist Aisha, or even a beautiful Angelic Halo! The Lunar Fortune Cookie works just a little bit differently -- crack one open and you could win gold or a popular item! I also recruited a few of my fellow shopkeepers to write some messages in 'em too, so you get your tasty little treat and a special fortune! With these babies, we're totally gonna ring in the lunar new year right. They'll be in La Victoire until January 31st, 11:59 PM EST, so drop on by for some sweets and treasures!

31 Fashionably equine recolors in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Hey, guys. So, it's the Year of the Horse, apparently. That's cool, I guess. I mean, me personally, I think it should be Year of the Swan. But no one listens to me. So, okay. Figured I might as well roll with it, right? Went looking for some inspiration, and I think I found it. Came up with three new masterpieces that I'm proud to call my own -- all of 'em with a little touch of what Jet dubbed "equine fabulosity", although I'm kind of scared to ask what the heck that actually means. Anyway, if you wanna take a peek at 'em, I got them all lined up right here...

-

Pretty nice, right? Already named 'em all. Nubia the Unicorn, Le Carousel Noir, and the Hinterland Warlord of Lunair. So, um... They're available now in La Victoire, and they'll be sticking around until February 1st, 11:59 PM EST if you wanna take a look at them yourself. Uh -- Jet told me to make a joke about a "dog and pony show" or something, but he doesn't even know any dogs besides P.U.G. and they don't exactly get along, so... Whatever, gonna skip it. I guess I'll see you at La Victoire? That'd be cool.

31 Lunar Lucky Bundle now available in La Victoire!
Hola, Gaians! Y'all feeling lucky? I sure do! Got my hands on a couple of Lunar Lucky Bundles and now I feel like the most fortunate star kitten ever to own his own shop with a fancy French name and a silly purple sidekick! (There's more of us than you think. Trust me.) Anyway, it'd be kind of selfish to me to keep these awesome new bundles all to myself, so I figure I ought share at least a couple with you guys, right? They're full of Lunar Fortune Cookies and Lunar Sky Lanterns, which means you can win great prizes like the ones pictured below!

For those of you who might not know, let me fill you in on how these neat items work! With your Lunar Sky Lantern in hand, all you have to do is make a wish to receive either gold or items and you could win up to 250 million gold or valuable items such as the Ancient Katana, Herbalist Aisha, or even a beautiful Angelic Halo! The Lunar Fortune Cookie works just a little bit differently -- crack one open and you could win gold or a popular item! So why not try out a Lunar Lucky Bundle today? They'll be in La Victoire until January 31st, 11:59 PM EST, so I hope to see you soon!

31 EI Report: Josie's Journey and introducing Adamant Vault!
Happy Friday, science fans! Can you believe it's the last day of January? This year feels like it's going by so fast I can scarcely keep up! Of course, being the competitive scientist that I am, I simply view time's frenetic pace as nothing more than a challenge. You think you're better than me, time? I'll show you! I'll make this the greatest year for Evolving Item-related research that the world has ever seen! Maybe that will teach you to slow down some, huh? Punk. Anyway, I'm well on my way to guaranteeing myself a place in the annals of scientific history with this latest update! Not only do we have another stunning evolution from Josie's Journey, but we've just discovered a brand new evolving item called Adamant Vault! Oh, the wonders of science. Let's take a look, shall we?

-

Josie's Journey: Josie and her new traveling partner introduced themselves to one another. His name was Rudo, a lonely young man as desperate for adventure as she was. In pursuit of some excitement, Rudo had foolishly tried to join a gang who promised to initiate him if he stole from a traveler. Unfortunately for him, he'd picked Josie as his first target -- that hadn't exactly worked out in his favor. Still, Rudo seemed relieved, and the more time Josie and Rudo spent together the more she realized how similar they truly were. He'd been a bookworm, just like Josie had, yearning for something more before studying abroad. Hadn't her own journey started in a very similar way?

Together, the pair traveled on Rudo's teal moped across the sweltering hot country, visiting different villages and towns. Josie had completely fallen in love with traveling, and she found the architecture of each new location to be absolutely fascinating. And the clothes! A vibrant mixture of traditional and modern, just like the buildings themselves. This helped spark Josie's interest in architecture and fashion, which eventually led to her career in Housing and Global Imports in the future.

Adamant Vault: It appears that you've inherited a safe that once belonged to a glamorous siren of the silver screen. It's rumored to contain some of her most precious valuables. The vault slowly creaks open, and you're briefly blinded by the sparkling brilliance it contains. The first thing that catches your eye, however, is a stunning diamond ring...

Ah! I love when things have that lovely "new Evolving Item" smell, don't you? That's all we have for this week, but be sure to tune in next Friday for our next Evolving Item Report! Oh, and don't forget to vote in this week's EI Poll and let us know what you think! You can see these beautiful evolutions and more in La Victoire. See you next week!

31 Sky Lanterns and Fortune Cookies leave La Victoire soon!
Hey Gaians! Hope you're all enjoying your lanterns and fortune cookies! Have any of your wishes come true yet? Mine have. I wished that Cygnus would buy Sweetie Pops Sugar Cereal with Extra Frosting! this morning and he totally did. That is some crazy mystical awesomeness right there. The lanterns work in some mysterious ways, man. Of course, the fortune I found did tell me that Cygnus would be buying that cereal. And also milk, bread, cat food... Huh. That actually might not have been a fortune. That might have been a shopping list. Anyway, it's not important! I'm just here to remind you that our awesome Lunar Sky Lanterns and Lunar Fortune Cookies won't be in La Victoire for much longer! Why are they so awesome? 'Cause they can help you score some really great prizes:

-

With your Lunar Sky Lantern in hand, all you have to do is make a wish to receive either gold or items and you could win up to 250 million gold or valuable items such as the Ancient Katana, Herbalist Aisha, or even a beautiful Angelic Halo! The Lunar Fortune Cookie works just a little bit differently -- crack one open and you could win gold or a popular item! Lucky for you, we've decided to extend their stay a few more hours! They'll be in the shop until Feb 1st, 2:59 AM EST, so you've still got some time if you'd like to check them out! See you around, Gaians!

01 Celebrate Februrary with oodles of great bundles!
Oh man, you know what has me stoked? February! Do you know how much crazy stuff goes down in February? SO MUCH. People hand each other chocolate and flowers and have fancy dinners despite the fact that it has almost nothing to do with Saint Valentine! Groundhogs make weather-related prophecies because they've apparently been studying meteorology, I guess? Also a bunch of Presidents have birthdays in February, so you know we gotta celebrate pretty hard for those rad dudes. Oh, and, ANDDDD the best part is there's apparently this gigantic football game where everybody gets together to eat tiny football-related snacks put in something called a "super bowl" that are laden with cheese and bacon. At least, that's how P.U.G. explained it to me. He also told me that the game itself is secondary to the bacon-related deliciousness, but I'm not sure he's right. Anyway, it's a pretty exciting month overall! So we're gonna have a little sale to celebrate everything February has to offer, featuring tons of awesome bundles full of great goodies! Check it out!

-

Lesse... We've got the February Love Bundle filled with tons of items sure to bring out your inner romantic, the February Shadow Bundle can no doubt help you predict whether we oughta expect some more cold weather or not (or you could just, I don't know, look out a window), the February President's Bundle will kit you out like political royalty, and finally the February Sunday Game Bundle has everything you need to cheer on your favorite team! We've also got the February Surprise Bundle, which gives you the chance to win any of the bundles listed above, or possibly even the super rare February Super Bundle, brimming with great, valuable items! So hey, let's kick the month off right, shall we? Visit La Victoire to check out these great bundles, as they'll be here until February 2, 11:59 PM EST! See you real soon, all right?

01 Incubi Wings for sale in La Victoire!
Cygnus: So, uh. Hello, everyone. Had a dream about flying the other night. Which is kind of weird, I guess, since most of my dreams are about the universe collapsing and the end of life as we know it and—well. They're usually a little, um... Complicated? So I guess it was kind of a pleasant change. I mean, not that flying is all that weird for me or anything. But a simple dream was kinda nice. So, y'know. Inspired me to maybe take my painter's brush to some wings, give it a shot. Came up with two new wing colors that I like a lot. Take a look if you don't believe me:

-

Kind of pretty, right? Especially the purple ones. I like the purple ones a lot. They're called Incubi's Amethyst Wings and Incubi's Emerald Wings, and I'm going to be selling them in La Victoire along with the original Incubi's Wings until February 2, 11:59 PM EST. I'll also be selling an Incubi's Wings Bundle if you wanna grab all of them. So, um. Hope you like it.

02 Beyond Black and Beyond Bundle now available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Um, hey guys. Cygnus again, back with more attempts at, uh... Artistry, I guess? You guys know I kind of have a thing for black and white recolors. I don't know, they just feel kind of classy. Like penguins. Or, um—you know, swans. So, I decided to color something else black and white, and I really like how it came out. Here, I put it on a little poster and everything, see?

-

I'm not super creative with names, so I'm just calling it Beyond Black. I think I did a pretty good job. I'm guessing the penguins and swans would probably approve. So, um—if you'd like, you can come pick it up at La Victoire. It'll be in the shop until February 3 at 11:59pm EST, so drop by if you want. Oh, uh, we're also going to be selling the Beyond Bundle as well. It's not only got Beyond Black, but also Beyond Brown and Beyond Blush, so it's pretty awesome, I think. Okay. Gotta go stock some shelves. See you later, or whatever.

02 Last chance to grab Nouvelle Lune!
You know Gaians, I've got to say -- I've been basking in the moon's comforting glow for nearly a month now, and I feel a little... different. I think the term I'm looking for is "relaxed" although I'm not entirely certain. It's been so long since I felt at ease that I'm not exactly sure how it's supposed to feel any more! But, alas, the real world beckons. I can't ignore the work that has been piling up on my desk forever, and to be honest I'm starting to miss all the adding sums and subtracting digits and calculating the square roots of the hypotenuse -- you know, the usual kind of accountant fluff. The moon's distinct shine seems to be dimming anyway, and so it seems that it may be Nouvelle Lune's turn to shuffle off to that friendly place in the sky. But before the moon wanes into nothing, maybe you'd like to help Artemis achieve her dreams? There might be an incredible prize in it for you, like one of these lovely treasures!

Nouvelle Lune will be leaving La Victoire shortly, and thus my reintegration into real life must resume. I have to say that my bones are feeling quite robust though. The moonbathing totally worked! Here's hoping that you Gaians are just as fortunate as I am!

Bask in the Nouvelle Lune!

02 Let's Play Another Round!
Hi again, everyone! Some of the most fun I've had in a long time was playing Pick a Card and Let It Ride with you guys! I enjoyed it so much I think I'll set up a table today! Stop by and play a round, and you could win fabulous prizes like these!

Don't miss your chance to play Let it Ride and win two million to one billion gold! How? If you score gold with your Let It Ride card, you'll have the option to -- LET IT RIDE! If you're successful, you'll win double the amount of gold you originally scored! Of course, not everyone is so lucky... but no worries! If you aren't successful, you'll walk away with half the original amount you won. I'll be sticking around just a little while today until February 2nd, 11:59 PM EST! Hope you'll stop by!

02 February bundles leave La Victoire soon!
Happy February, Gaians! Just wanted to remind you that we've still got lots of great bundles on sale at La Victoire, but unfortunately they have to pack up and beat it pretty soon! Need a refresher on what we've got in store for you guys? Sure, just take a look!

The February Love Bundle, February Shadow Bundle, February President's Bundle, and February Sunday Game Bundle will all be available until tonight: February 2, 11:59 PM EST! Also, our super awesome February Surprise Bundle, which allows you to win any of the bundles listed above or possibly even the super rare February Super Bundle, will be leaving La Victoire at the same time! So why not share some of your February enthusiasm with us? Wow, if you say the word "February" enough it starts to sound kind of like nonsense. I don't recommend trying it, it's messing with my head a little. Anyway! Hope to see you in La Victoire real soon!

03 Cash Shop Bundle Surprise now available in La Victoire!
You know, we've had some pretty amazing bundles here in La Victoire. Even before Cygnus and I took over this joint, there have always been bundles of beautiful bounties, hasn't there? Tons of 'em! I have lots of ideas for future ones, too. Like a bundle with nothing but kimonos made out of cat food! Or one where you get a half-empty bottle of seltzer as a companion! Soooo cuuuutee. Of course, no one seems to think my bundle ideas are all that great, but you know. Sometimes genius just takes time to recognize. Anyway, that doesn't stop the bundles of ages past from being any less awesome, right? Which is why I've created this nifty little item! It's called the Cash Shop Bundle Surprise, and it's full of awesome prizes like these!

-

The Cash Shop Bundle Surprise is loaded with great bundles from the past—you never know what you're going to get! A Breezy Love Bundle, perhaps? Ultimate Race Bundle? Or maybe even a newer one, like Rosamund's Garland Bundle... You'll have to play to see what you get surprised with! So why not try one out and see if you like it? They'll be available until February 5, 11:59 PM EST, so drop by La Victoire and give it a whirl! See you then, Gaians!

03 Divinity's Reach is back!
Greetings from the furthest, most fabulous reaches of space, Gaians! We've been watching Gaia from afar when we suddenly came to a terrible realization: we hadn't visited recently! Well, rather than deprive any of you of our wonderful company, we decided to catch the quickest wormhole and space shimmy our way down to your lovely planet! And, of course, we brought lots of Divinity's Reach with us! We haven't been gone so long that you've forgotten it, have you? Here, have a quick reminder!

Divinity's Reach is full of heavenly rewards, from sacks of gold to beautiful, super rare items! You can score up to five million gold, a popular Chance Item, one of a variety of gorgeous backwings, or possibly even a valuable 2003 Monthly Collectible! Oh, you lucky Gaians you. Not only do you get the opportunity to play some Divinity's Reach, but you also get the chance to spend more time with us! We'd no doubt be jealous, were it not for the fact that we are us. Hmm, well—maybe we can still be a little envious anyway. Unfortunately, we can't stay for long! We'll be leaving tonight, at 11:59 PM EST, so please drop by La Victoire and pay us a visit before then. We'd love to see your lovely little faces!

03 Dyrfinna and Renard Doll Recolors in La Victoire!
Cygnus: So, um... For those of you who might know a little bit about me, you may have heard of my extensive action figure collection. It's not a big deal. Y'know -- Jet tries to make it out like I've got like, some kind of weird obsession or whatever. But I don't. I just like to, uh... collect. And sometimes I like to customize, you know? Normally I don't show anyone, but I'm pretty pleased with how these came out, so I guess I can let you see.

-

There's two of them: SDPlus R #424 Renard and SDPlus R #425 Dyrfinna the All Wise. I improved Dyrfinna immensely by adding some much needed purple to her, and I gave Renard some pretty bright, awesome hair. I, um... I think they're pretty good! As good as the originals, I wanna say. Of course I can't really be the judge of that, so uh... Maybe stop by La Victoire and tell me what you think? They'll be in the shop until February 4th, 11:59 PM EST if you wanna take a look. So, I guess... Thanks in advance? Okay.

03 Limited Quantity Item: Brisk Stroll available in La Victoire
Oh boy, Gaians. We've got something REAL special in store for you! Sometimes I like to do a little shopping, right? See what sort of awesome items I can take home with me? Man, I totally nailed it today. Found such an amazing treat that I just can't wait to share it with you all! Here, take a gander at this gorgeous new item set I found!

-

It's called Brisk Stroll and I pretty much look darling in it. But, much as I'd like to keep this pretty little thing to myself, I can't help but wanna share it with you guys too. And so Brisk Stroll will be on our shelves until February 5, 11:59 PM EST! We've only got a limited number to sell, since it was pretty difficult securing a decent supply of these beautiful sets, but hopefully they'll all go to good Gaian homes where they'll be loved and cherished forever and ever... Maaaan, I really do wish I could keep one. Well, please drop by La Victoire and take a look! See you around, I hope!

03 Coin Toss is back in La Victoire!
Yo. It's your pal Nicolae, back again with products perfect for a distinguished customer such as yourself. Interested in what I got? Sure you are. Why wouldn't you be? C'mere, you gotta get closer. We don't want anyone overhearing our little conversation, do we? 'Cause I got something special here, buddy. A real winner. Remember Coin Toss? Well, I managed to find more of it, and it's still loaded with great prizes like these...

Pretty amazing, huh? You can win up to 100 million gold, or great items such as Mini Nitemare Wings, Onei the Dark Unicorn, Princess of the Universe, or even a Panda Hat -- all at the toss of a coin. 'Cept this coin is a little... different. Let's just say you've got some real influence over the outcome, you get me? So, you wanna play? Maybe Lady Luck is gonna favor you. Maybe she won't. But you look lucky to me, I gotta say. Only one way to find out if we're both right. I'll be hanging outside of La Victoire until tonight, at 3:00 AM EST. I got... other business to attend to after that, so I'll be packing up my things by then. Why don't you drop by? Tell a few friends? Just so long as they aren't guards.

Try a Coin Toss!

04 It's a Butterfly Garden Sale in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Okay, so. Jet's been watching a lot of old martial arts movies lately. They're kind of fun. Somewhat less charming when Jet decides to practice the moves he "learned" on me afterwards, but you know. He's a cat. It's not really a problem until he suddenly remembers he has claws. Anyway, those movies got me thinking about an item I'd been planning to color for a while, so... I did. Twice, in fact. So, um—here, if you wanna see for yourself...

-

Got two new versions here in a cute pink and a slightly tougher looking navy blue. Butterfly Strike and Butterfly Block are now both available in La Victoire, and will be in the shop until February 5, 11:59 PM EST. I've also found an extra box of Butterfly Punch, so we're all stocked up on that as well. But if you're looking to snag the whole collection, you might wanna check out the Butterfly Garden Bundle. It's got all the recolors I already mentioned, plus Butterfly Kick and Butterfly Jab. Maybe you wanna pick one up and use it to test out your martial arts skills? Could be worth a shot, I guess. At least you'll look awesome doing it. So, um. Stop by La Victoire when you can. Jet's feeling chatty and I'm not much for conversation, so I'm sure he'd like someone else to be around.

04 Cash Shop Update: Wonderful Mad Tea Bundle!
I bet you guys thought the Mad Tea Party at La Victoire was over, huh? OHOHOHO. Well, you're like one thousand percent wrong, 'cause the party ain't over until I say it's over! Hear that, Cygnus?

Alister's Wonder: Alister foolishly chased a rabbit down a rabbit hole and now he's stuck in a surreal tea party filled with crazy characters!

Includes his collared shirt, pants and booties, tailed vest, bunny bag, golden hair, and of course a tea cup!

The Hostess of Illogical Tea seems to only have a loose affiliation with reality (and sanity) but that doesn't make her any less of an amazing host! Just don't expect to get any kind of sensible conversation out of her. Includes her blouse, puffy skirt, elegant heels, unruly hair, stacked hat, and a little tea pot!

Chase the Bunny: Make sure you don't linger at the Mad Tea Party too long, as this adorable little bunny is trying to adhere to a tight schedule! Don't make him late for any of his important dates!

04 Deck of Cards Bundle now available in La Victoire!
Hello, my lucky little Gaians! Becky again, looking to play some Let It Ride or some Pick A Card! You guys wanna try playing a round? Could be a lot of fun! Plus I could use the practice at dealing. I mean, I've dealt games before, but the only players I ever have are usually body pillows... Anyway, I'm always stuck behind the counter at Prize and Joy, so I'll take any opportunity to play some games with real people! You guys will help indulge me, right? I even put together the perfect little bundle for it! But before we get into the details, let me remind you of all the amazing things you could win!

Need the rules explained to you? Sure! With Pick A Card all you have to do is choose the card that reflects how adventurous you're feeling and you could win tons of gold or a valuable item. Just remember that the bigger rewards come with bigger risks! Let It Ride not only gives you the chance to nab some great, valuable items, but you could win anywhere from two million to one billion gold! If you score gold with your Let It Ride card, you'll have the option to LET IT RIDE! If you're successful, you'll win double the amount of gold you originally scored! If you aren't successful, you'll walk away with half the original amount you won. I've loaded both of these great games into a single bundle called Deck of Cards so you can try them both out! It'll be available until February 5th, 3:00 AM EST because unfortunately I can't be away from Prize and Joy for too long. Ooooh, I'm so excited! May the odds be in your favor, guys!

04 Rosamund and Princess sale in La Victoire!
You know who loves the heck out of tea parties? PRINCESSES. And not just because sipping tea daintily from a tea cup with your pinky finger raised makes you feel like delicate royalty! I mean, I can't even raise my pinky finger, on account of not exactly having one. But a tea party is, like, the epitome of everything it is to be a princess! Porcelain! Froofy dresses! Cute little cakes with silly French names! But I bet if we had a bunch of actual princesses muckin' around my party, we'd really class up this joint, right? So why not sell some of the best Princess Bundles we've ever had? That's right! Rosamund's Garland Bundle and the Princess Voyage Bundle are back in La Victoire, just in time to really help us make this a royal affair!

-

So whaddayah say, Gaians? Wanna feel like royalty? Then check out these two totally sweet bundles! They'll be in La Victoire until tonight, at 11:59 PM EST—after that Cygnus usually gets kind of cranky about his beauty sleep, so I have to pause the party around then. Hope you drop by La Victoire!

04 The seal is weakening on February's Advance Chance!
Sigh. Well, February is here, and I'm still without a sweetheart. I've recovered somewhat from my earlier depression, however. Besides, who needs relationships? The only excitement I ever need is seeing the seal on my Advance Chance weaken, and it appears that February's Advance Chance refuses to disappoint! I can see the edges tapering off already. What enticing rewards wait inside? Oh, I can hardly stand the suspense!

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the February Advance Chance. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

I'm now 100% positive that some old items that have gone below a certain value have been removed. Now then, if you'll excuse—oop, hang on, sorry! Looks like I've got a message...

kanokococoa17: ivaaaaaan, have you heard anything from rina lately??

BuffboyIvan: No, I haven't. Why?

kanokococoa17: oh no... that's probably not good brb

Huh. Strange. Well, none of my business! If you'd like to pick up an Advance Chance, they'll still be available in La Victoire for a little while longer!

05 Minty Catwalk now available in La Victoire!
Guess what, Gaians? P.U.G. came over to see what all my tea party fuss was about and we got to talking, and he said we could put Minty Catwalk in La Victoire now! Oh, and then he drank like half of my tea and ate like twenty of my maple bacon scones. Then he started acting all loopy and, like... dancing? I don't know, guys. That dog is whack. But I got boxes of Minty Catwalk delivered to me today, and lemme tell you that it does NOT disappoint! I can be a little picky about items with the word "cat" in it -- I have my pride, you know -- but this dang set is so adorable and fresh I can barely stand it. See for yourself!

-

Super cute, right? And pretty dang stylish. For all his faults, that P.U.G. has pretty good taste. Anyway, it's all stocked up in La Victoire now! You oughta stop by to try it on and strut your stuff a little! Or if you wanna just stop by for some tea. But we're all out of maple bacon scones now, though. You can blame P.U.G. for that one. See you real soon, I hope!

05 Kanoko recolors and Bundle now available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Um. Hi, Gaians. So, with Jet throwing his "mad tea party" or whatever he's calling it, and pointedly uninviting me in his announcement, I decided to have some of my own tea-related fun. You all know that a while back that weird girl Kanoko kinda went... through the looking glass or something, right? Maybe she found a tea party of her own while she was there. I don't know. She doesn't really talk about it. And I don't really talk period. But her outfit was kinda cute, so I decided to, um... Well, put my own spin on it. So I made two new versions. Here, if you wanna see...

-

We've got the minty Kanoko's Fancy and the silvery Kanoko's Dream. Kinda nice, right? I worked hard on them, but you know... I guess maybe I should see if Kanoko likes 'em. I didn't think to ask her. But whatever, she's been kind of hard to find lately anyway. So, uh. If you like them, or wanna see them up close, or anything else I guess, then maybe drop by La Victoire. We'll also be selling a bundle of the entire Kanoko line called Kanoko's Delusions of Grandeur. (No offense, Kanoko. You're kinda weird.) They'll be in stock until February 6, 11:59 PM EST, so uh... Drop by? I guess? It'd be neat to see you, so long as you don't talk to me. Okay, um. Bye.

05 Kanoko is worried that Rina is In Deep Ship! Can you help?
Um, hi Gaians! I'm Kanoko, you guys might recognize me from Dernier Cri? Or maybe from one of the seemingly thousands of jobs I've held in the past. Normally I'm not one for big speeches or anything like that, but I'm so worried about Rina that I don't know what else to do! She hasn't been outside of her home in months, and the last time I visited her all she talked about was Dropplr, and her favorite OTPs, and I just don't think it's very good! I gave her some time to hopefully come back to her senses, but I think maybe I ought to visit her and see how she's doing? Brennivin agreed to give me the time off work -- at least, I think he did, he's kind of hard to understand -- so I've decided to head over to her home now and maybe check on her a little. If worst comes to worst, I guess I can always grab her computer and run outside with it so she'll have to follow me! Although I'm a little worried that won't work, since Rina really seems to be stuck In Deep Ship. I can understand her problem, though. That Dropplr site is so enticing! But maybe if you guys lend a hand, I might be able to reward you with a Cash Shop favorite, a valuable rare item, or maybe one of these romantic new exclusives:

-

They really are super nice... But that's not the point! The point is we have to save Rina. From herself! And her weird obsession with "shipping" things, or whatever it's called! Please, Gaians, can I have your support? Not so much for Rina as it is for myself! Because I know she's going to try and pull me into this craziness too. So please take a look at In Deep Ship and help me save Rina! Or if you really want to pitch in, you could maybe pick up a bundle of nine? Thank you so much, guys!

Help save Rina from In Deep Ship!

06 New Manner and Style Recolors for sale in La Victoire!
Y'know, being a star kitten is rough sometimes. Not only do I not have opposable thumbs—which, from what I can gather, are super duper handy for working the can opener—but I don't even have things like eyebrows! Do you know how awesome eyebrows are? I gotta contort my face all sorts of crazy ways just to pull off an expression a Gaian could do in like, three seconds by quirking an eyebrow. You guys and your full range of facial expressions have it made. Which is why I'm pretty dang jealous that you guys can use these amazing new Adoring Loving Manner, Doting Loving Manner, Raging Loathing Style, and Scornful Loathing Style! They let you make all sorts of awesome faces that we star kittens can't pull off. Here, take a look!

-

See what I mean? That's pretty dang expressive! I'd have to do face gymnastics to pull that off. Sigh. Ah, well.

They'll be in La Victoire until February 7, 11:59 PM EST, along with two great new bundles! The Lovely Expression Bundle and the Strong Expression Bundle come loaded with all sorts of awesome Manners and Styles perfect for showing off your emotions. So, hey! It's time to express yourself!

06 Win some brand new hairstyles with Splitting Hairs!
Everyone, I've got incredible news! I was working late one night, experimenting with some dangerously chic hairstyles, when I noticed something super strange: all the hair clippings on the floor had combined together into this weird mass, like some sort of super furry Boltron! It didn't seem to be moving or anything, so I picked it up and tried to pull all the hairs apart -- and this is where it gets weird, guys. As I split the hairs apart, I discovered another totally awesome, perfectly intact wig sitting right in the middle of it all. Oh, it was glorious! But kind of strange? I mean, it looks amazing. But how did it get there? Maybe I shouldn't have bought those off-brand wigs from Dr. Singh's lab to experiment on... Anyway, I was so confused that I trimmed another of those wigs, and another, and another, and each time the discarded hair clippings fused together! And, in the center of each and every one of them, was a super fashionable new hairstyle that I've never even seen before. I know it sounds crazy, but it's true! Here, I'll show you:

-

Much as I wish I could keep all these great 'dos to myself, it's only fair to share 'em with other Gaians, I think. So I've put a bunch of these hairy surprises in La Victoire! You oughta try Splitting Hairs to see what amazing new styles you might win! Who knows? It might be just the thing to complete your look! I'll be busy in Salon Durem, cutting and trimming up more of these creepy bundles of joy! Come visit me, 'kay?

07 Limited Quantity Item: Lulu Saloon in La Victoire!
Hello, fashionable Gaians! Not many people know this about me, but I've got kind of a soft spot in my heart for the Old West. Y'know—cowboys, exploring the great unknown, shootouts, those shiny little sheriff badge things. The ones shaped like a star? Man, I would look totally awesome with one of those. But you wanna know the greatest thing about the Old West? Those fancy saloons! With the piano player and the sarsaparilla and the totally boss swinging doors (I oughta install those in La Victoire) and, of course, those kicky saloon gals. Well, consider today's item a tribute to those fine ladies of yore! Feast your eyes, my dear friends:

-

Say hello to the lovely Lulu Saloon, folks! Fresh off the market, here to impress you with its amazing dance moves! It's available now in La Victoire, and will be there until February 9, 11:59 PM EST—or until it sells out. I was only able to procure a limited amount of this super cute item, so that is definitely a possibility! Drop by La Victoire if you wanna take a peek at it, okay? I'm going to have old timey piano music playing on the speakers all day. Hope you like vaudeville!

07 Flynn's Booty and Chest are back!
Ahoy, Gaians! You know, I've been hitting the whole piracy game pretty hard, lately. Not that piracy is a bad thing! Well, I mean, it kind of is—but for the people being pirated, not for good ol' Cap'n Flynn! I've scored more treasure than I know what to do with, honestly. So why not give some awesome Gaians a chance at some of my amazing profit? Besides, I could use the break. Maybe I'll visit a spa while I'm visiting... I do like those fizzy drinks with umbrellas. Well, anyway! Flynn's Booty and Flynn's Chest are both back in La Victoire, and they'll be available until February 7, 11:59 PM EST. That should be enough time for me to unwind a little, right? Oh, and just in case you didn't know, each Booty has the chance to contain up to 100 million gold and my Chest contains up to 250 million gold! And you know what? Since I'm in such an amazing mood, Flynn's Chest, the Flynn's Chest Bundle, and the Flynn's Booty Bundle will all be sold at a discount! Ahh—I'm feeling more relaxed already. Drop by La Victoire if you're interested in taking a look!

07 EI Report: Adamant Vault and Josie's Journey
It's the first Friday of February, my adorable little sundaes of science! You know what that means, don't you? A brand new EI Report! I've had many sleepless nights formulating this one, let me tell you. Mostly because I invented a new pill that keeps you up for weeks at a time, and no one was willing to let me test it on them! Can you believe it? Some people just aren't willing to do what it takes in the name of science, Gaians. How sad. Either way, beyond the mild auditory hallucinations I'm feeling FANTASTIC! The voices in my head are telling me it's time to get this show on the road, so let's see what we've got on the dossier for today, shall we? It seems like Adamant Vault has evolved once more, and Josie's Journey is coming to an absolutely spectacular finish!

-

Adamant Vault: With the brilliant ring currently sparkling away on your finger, you further explore the starlet's stunning diamond collection. It isn't long before you discover two beautiful new pieces that take your breath away: a dramatic pair of earrings and a sparkling set of bracelets.

Josie's Journey: After a summer full of travel and sightseeing, Josie realized that her journey finally had to come to an end. She and Rudo had spent the entire season roaming across the country, exploring everything their small part of the world had to offer. But Rudo insisted there was one more stop on their trip: his palace. Although he'd kept it hidden from Josie, Rudo was actually descended from a long line of wealthy royals. He spent his entire life cooped up in the palace, unable to experience life outside of its decadent walls, until he finally made a decision to run away and see what the world had to offer. Perhaps he'd been a little naive at first -- trying to join a gang, he realized, was probably not the smartest move -- but traveling with Josie had truly opened his eyes. And although Josie was initially shocked and reluctant to have Rudo spoil her, she eventually relented and allowed him to give her a magnificent gown. The prince's return home was celebrated with a lavish ball, and Josie and Rudo spent the entire night dancing together before finally parting ways.

However, the two of them promised to always keep in touch and eventually travel the world together. Unfortunately, Josie's years at her university and then running Global Imports keeps her fairly busy. Although their busy schedules are rarely in sync, Rudo still finds ways to help Josie where he can. As a traveling business man, he flies around the world looking for new fashions and clothes to export to Global Imports. And while Josie hasn't achieved her dream of exploring the globe yet, she knows that one day she'll travel and see everything the world has to offer. For now, though? Josie is more than happy where she is, providing Gaians with the beautiful clothes from the places that she longs to one day visit.

Fascinating! Even the voices in my head are cheering with joy! Which is kind of a relief, because they're usually telling me to set things on fire. Anyway, that's all we have time for this week, but be sure to keep an eye out for next Friday's EI Report! Let us know which Evolving Item was your favorite in our Weekly EI Poll, and don't forget you can see all these beautiful items and more in La Victoire! See you next time, junior scientists!

08 Win a fun treat by choosing a Candy Heart!
Oh man. You know what's coming up? Valentine's Day. I LOVE Valentine's day. Not that I'm super into romance or all that mushy whatever nonsense -- that's more Cygnus' thing, even though he won't admit it -- but you know what I am totally into? Candy. Lots of it. And Valentine's Day means tons and tons of candy available. Chocolates, lollipops, chocolate lollipops... Need I go on? Oh, but you know what the most fun V-day candy is? Those little sugary hearts with the funny phrases on 'em. I mean, they taste kind of like cherry-flavored chalk, but they're just so kitschy and cute that I can't help but love 'em! Which is why I've decided to put a whole big, giant bowl of 'em here in La Victoire. The cool thing about these candies, though, is that they come with PRIZES. Oh man, that's right. Super nice prizes. See for yourself!

The way our sweet little Candy Hearts work is that you pick a heart, and then you get to pick your prize: you can choose to receive a random valuable item such as Ribbon Candy or Kandi Kitten, or up to 250 million gold! There is even a neat little bundle pack if you wanna give it to your someone special! Oh, and I even got some of my awesome fellow shopkeepers to write little notes on 'em. I wouldn't take 'em too seriously, 'cause I think more than a few of them were on sugar highs of their own when they wrote their messages, but they're still fun. These tasty treats will be available until February 9th, 11:59 PM EST! Can't wait to see you in La Victoire!

08 New Juno's Lace recolors available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Hi, guys. So, you know. I've been putting out some darker recolors as of late. And that's cool, I think. I like dark. But, I guess I need a change of pace sometimes? So I fiddled around with a few different colors for a while, trying to find some that really spoke to me. Or, um... Something that sounds less cheesy than that. Anyway, it took kind of a while, but eventually I found a couple of different shades that I really liked working with. Here they are, if you wanna see.

-

Not bad, right? There's the red Jupiter's Lace, the cream Uni's Lace, and my personal favorite in lavender, Minerva's Lace. You can pick them up in La Victoire if you'd like to. We're also selling the Oodles of Lace Bundle containing the entire collection. They'll be in La Victoire until February 9, 11:59 PM EST so drop by, if that's what you want. Okay, um. Bye for now.

09 House of Manifold now available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Um, hey everyone. Still kind of on a recoloring roll here, I guess you could say. That guy Loyal stopped by for a second—getting some advice on how to set up a register, or something—and he peeked at what I was doing. I was kinda annoyed, since I don't really appreciate being snooped on, but he told me about an item from his carnival he'd like to see me try coloring, and... Well. It was kind of a good idea. So after he left I worked on it a little and, uh... Yeah, I hate to say it, but the weirdo was right. It came out pretty good, see?

-

I'm calling it House of Manifold and you can pick it up from La Victoire, if you'd like. Oh, and we also have the Mirror Mirror Bundle, which contains both my version, the original, and Cassiopeia's Vanity as a special bonus. They'll be available until February 10, 11:59 PM EST. So, uh... Thanks to Loyal for the inspiration, I guess. He's really strange but he seems like he's all right.

10 La Bella Stretto and La Belle Ortolan now in La Victoire!
Cygnus: So, apparently I've been bit by the coloring bug. That's what Jet is saying, anyway. I guess he's kinda right. Normally when I'm not working in the shop I'm playing one of the Revolution Trilogy games, or just spending time with myself thinking, or... Whatever, other stuff. Not usually doing anything too productive, I guess. But I really like coloring? It's relaxing. So, you know. Guess I'm gonna just... Um. Keep at it? If you guys don't mind. Anyway, enough of my babbling. Maybe you guys wanna see the new items I've colored? I've got two I've been working on, if you wanna take a peek.

-

Not bad, I don't think. They're called La Belle Ortolan and La Bella Stretto—see if you can sort out which is which. So, uh. If you like 'em, maybe stop by La Victoire and give them a closer look. We'll also be selling La Belle Chanteuse, La Bella Figura, Li Bello Forma, and two bundles: the La Bella Bundle, and the La Belle Bundle. Um... They'll be in the shop until February 11, 11:59 PM EST so I guess I'll see you around. Bye.

Visit La Victoire!

10 Candy Hearts are back!
Jet: Oof. Ugh. Okay. I may have... Maybe I overdid it a little. I ate about seven hundred of those candy hearts and I'm starting to think that might not have been the best idea I've ever had. But I just couldn't stop! They're so bite-size and sweet and I look adorable stuffing them in my face on account of my super tiny size. Look at me holding this candy heart! It's almost normal size in my itty bitty kitty paws! Oh no. Now I feel compelled to eat it. No, Jet! Resist! Resist its delicate pink allure! Don't do it -- OMPHNOMPHMOM

Cygnus: Oookay, Jet has clearly gone off the deep end here so I'm gonna finish this up. So, um. We still got a bunch of Candy Hearts. Bowls and bowls of 'em. Jet's snacked his way through... I wanna say half? But I'm not touching 'em -- not crazy about sweets -- and so there should be plenty left for you guys. So, we're bringing 'em back for a little bit. They've got some pretty nice prizes you could win, too. Here, see for yourself:

The way Candy Hearts work is that you pick a heart, and then you get to pick your prize: you can choose to receive a random valuable item such as Ribbon Candy or Kandi Kitten, or up to 250 million gold! They've got some fun phrases from other shopkeepers that Jet annoyed into leaving messages, too. He tried to elbow me into it but I'm pretty immune to that sort of thing these days. Anyway, um... They'll be available until February 10th, 11:59 PM EST. Jet just passed out so I think I'm gonna go make sure he's still breathing and stuff. See you around La Victoire.

10 Get a head start on February's 2nd CI with Advance Chance!
You know, there are a lot more things that go into working for the GRS than most people think. Beyond all the tabulating and the percentages lies an entire unknown Underworld filled with danger and intrigue, where beautiful women burdened with terrible secrets are all drawn to one incredibly handsome man in particular: Ilan McGladstone, Tax Accountant. You can read all about it in my upcoming self-published novel "Ilan McGladstone, Tax Accountant: Rock God" which follows Ilan's dangerous adventures as he descends into the GRS' top secret basements, all the while moonlighting as a popular rock musician whose amazing ballads have the power to make women swoon and move men to tears. It's got romance! Villains! Guitar solos! Damsels in distress! A Greek chorus that seems weirdly out of place but I use it as a framing device and it works I swear! The only thing I can think of that's better than my novel is this month's second Advance Chance, which has finally arrived!

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the February Advance Chance II. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

Since it's a still a little unusual to have two Advance Chances in one month, I went ahead and gave this one a quick shake just to make sure everything checked out. Just as noisy as all previous ones! I'm confident that this is just like any other normal CI, filled with plenty of wonderful new items, rares—even an adorable new pet! I guess my only problem is I don't want it to compete with my amazing book release... Hopefully, the gods will be merciful! You can pick up an Advance Chance of your own in La Victoire! And talk to me if you'd like to, ahem, preordermyamazingnovelcomingoutsoon.

11 Get fancy with new makeup available in La Victoire!
Y'know, it takes a lot of work to look as good as I do. I spend hours upon hours brushing my fur to a glossy sheen, for one. Do you think that's easy? No way, man. My arms are super adorable but also kind of small, and Cygnus usually completely ignores my requests for help with my grooming. But that's not even the hardest part! You've noticed how I always sparkle, right? Like a beautiful gemstone? Well, I'm here to tell you that it's... one hundred percent completely natural. My distinct shimmer is all mine, baby! But that doesn't mean I don't like to enhance it a little. Nothing crazy! But enough to give my glittering beauty some extra oomph. We all need a little extra sparkle, sometimes, and I'm nothing if not sympathetic towards that. Which is why I've designed a bunch of super spiffy blushes, eyeshadows, and lipsticks to help you look just (well, let's be realistic here, almost) as good as I do! Take a look at what I've got in store:

-

Pretty awesome, am I right? There's a whole bunch of 'em, so I'm going to make a super handy list!


 * • Smiling Lips
 * • Cupid Lips
 * • Fine Lips
 * • Hollywood Lips
 * • Slash Blush
 * • Cheek Sparkles
 * • High Blush
 * • Across Blush
 * • Undereye Eyeshadow
 * • Sparkle Eyeshadow
 * • Threetoned Eyeshadow
 * • Eyeshadow Sweep

We've also got some super convenient makeup bundles loaded with everything you need to feel glamorous! There's the Lip Bundle with all the lovely lipsticks, the Blush Bundle with our new blushes, the Eyeshadow Bundle full of our great new shadows, and finally the Mega-Super Beauty Bundle with all of our new makeup products! Oh, and best of all is the amazing Full Makeover Bundle, which contains all the new makeup and three Splitting Hairs to make you completely gorgeous! Finally, a chance to look as fabulous as I feel. Uh, I mean as you feel. Or, heck—how we both feel! They'll be in La Victoire for a while yet, so why not drop by and put on some spackle to make you sparkle? We can even exchange beauty tips!

11 Classic Melody now available in La Victoire!
Hey, everyone! That weird dog who works at Club Verge has sent us another one of his, admittedly, pretty awesome items! Lesse what we got in store today... Just gotta open this box and... Voila! Ohhh, and it's super cute too!

-

Classic Melody is now available in La Victoire, and may I say that it's looking mighty fine on our shelves! Nice of P.U.G. to share with us anyway, even if I still find him kind of incredibly off putting. Something about squished faces, man. I just don't trust 'em. Anyway, you can drop by any time you like to take a closer look at this new beauty! Lookin' forward to seeing you around the shop!

12 Spread the love with Roses and Romance for a great prize!
All right, I may have mentioned in the past that I'm not exactly one for romance. And that's still completely true! But, y'know, as I was lying on the floor in a Candy Heart-induced coma, I got to thinking... Life is too short, you know? I mean, not my life. I'm a kitten star and we pretty much kick butt until we go supernova, which generally doesn't happen for a few eons or so. But your lives, Gaians! Your lives are so short in comparison! So I just wanted to say that... Oh man. That I love you guys. H-hang on, something got in my eye... AHEM. Anyway, that mushiness aside, February apparently is really the month to show someone that you care. And I wanna help out with that a bit! So I snuck into Rina's garden and snipped a few roses, arranged 'em all nicely, and ta-da! Roses and Romance galore! These gorgeous bouquets don't only look pretty, though; they come loaded with awesome prizes like these!

With Roses and Romance, you could win up to 250 million gold or great prizes, like Anurla's Amulet or even Rosamund's Rage! It's really simple: after you read your message (supplied by a totally willing to help shopkeeper, I swear) you get to choose whether you want an item prize or gold, and voila! Mystery presents abound! Is there anything more romantic than surprises? Well, I guess a bundle of a dozen would be pretty nice -- thankfully for you, we've got that as well! So why not drop by La Victoire and pick up a bouquet for your someone sweet? They'll be available until February 14th, 11:59 PM EST. Hope to see you soon!

12 Silver Bells Sale in La Victoire!
Okay, so it's no secret that kittens are kind of the greatest thing ever. How could they not be? I mean, I'm a kitten and I'm obviously the most wonderful creature to have ever existed, and so by that logic kittens themselves must be absolutely amazing. And they are! Soft and fluffy, with little teeny tiny paws and whiskers—honestly, what could be better? I don't even need to hype up this sale that much, honestly. It's full of adorable kittens. What more can I say? How could I possibly make that better? Just take a look and get ready to have your heart melted like a candy bar left outside on a summer day:

-

HNGGGHH. The cuteness! Even for a lovable kitten star like me, it's almost too much! Blue Belle, Golden Belle, and Copper Belle are all looking for some good homes to go to, so why not swing by and see if there's one you'd like to adopt? Or, if you can't decide between them (and who could, honestly, I mean look at their little faces!), we'll be offering the Mewling Belle Bundle with all three of the Belles! Why not pick up a few and surprise your sweetheart with a house full of cats? I mean, I can't think of any gesture more romantic than that. Don't let the overt cuteness fool you—we kittens are masters of the art of seduction. They'll be available until February 14, 11:59 PM EST so visit La Victoire to coo over the cuddliness! See you soon!

12 Seven Day Empathy and Seven Day Misery in La Victoire!
Cygnus: So, you all know that Valentine's Day is coming up pretty soon. And whatever, that's fine. You know, it's not like I need a sweetheart or anything. I don't. I don't care. Not having to worry about romantic dinners and that sort of mushy stuff just means I have more time to enjoy my hobbies. Um... Like watching the shop. Or rearranging the stuff on the shelves. Or organizing our inventory. Or thinking about how we're all in an endless spiral towards our own destruction. I'm just too busy to worry about Valentine's Day, obviously. But I did manage to get a little painting done as well, and what with this being the season for gushy romances and all that... Anyway, I colored something I thought would be relevant. Here, if you wanna see:

-

Seven Day Empathy and Seven Day Misery. They seem pretty seasonally appropriate, right? Particularly the "misery" part. Ugh. They're available now in La Victoire, along with the Seven Day Bundle which has both new versions and Seven Day Love for good measure. They'll be on the shelves until February 14th, 11:59 PM EST when this ridiculous saccharine torment will finally be over -- I hope. See you around.

13 Itty Bitty Kitty now available in La Victore!
Uh-oh. Okay, so you guys know we just had a bunch of adorable kittens in the shop, right? I mean, besides me. No, no Jet -- now is not the time to self-congratulate on how awesome you are! AHEM. Anyway, so it looks like word got out that we were helping these cute kitties get adopted, or I don't know, something like that. And now a bunch of new kittens just showed up at the door. I've never even seen these guys before! It looks like they all need good homes too... Initially I was going to send them away but then Cygnus gave me one of his patented Stern Looks and, well. The rest is history, as they say. He's too busy indulging in kitty cuddle piles to even help me with this announcement. It was hard but I managed to wrangle them all into one photo together, if you wanna see all their lovable kitty faces.

-

Does anyone want to take home an Itty Bitty Kitty? It's really simple: just open the box and see which kitty you end up with! And to make things even more exciting, some come with a special animated pose just to load up on the "d'awww" factor. No matter which kitten surprises you, I'm sure they'll shower you with love and headbutts and loud, incessant mewling! I mean, who wouldn't wanna adopt one of these guys, right? If you really want to help out you could even get an Itty Bitty Kitty Bundle full of the adorable little buggers! Anyway, it's nice having so many new friends mucking about, but I gotta say that I'm starting to think La Victoire is a one kitten kind of deal, you get me? Not that I'm jealous or anything! I mean, I am the cutest. Yes. Okay. See you soon!

13 Limited Quantity Item: Mousseux Drops in La Victoire!
You know what? The life of a shopkeeper ain't easy. Most people just assume that it's all "napping behind the register" or "napping on a shelf" or even "napping in the middle of the floor because you told Cygnus to do inventory and the sun happens to be shining right on that spot and it looks all warm and lovely" or you know... Maybe something less specific than that. But you get my point! And I'm here to tell you that we work hard. Real hard! But sometimes all that scrimping and bothering contacts for leads and all that—it pays off. And today? It REALLY paid off. We've got a brand new, absolutely gorgeous item to put on the shelves today, and I couldn't be happier! Take a peek:

-

The fruits of my labor, ladies and gents! This is the lovely Mousseux Drops, a rare item I managed to procure with my amazing shopkeeperly (that is a word now, by the way) abilities. Unfortunately I'm not that great a negotiator, and so I only managed to secure a limited amount of them. Still, I think it was worth the effort, don't you? This beauty will be available until February 15, 11:59 PM EST, so why not drop by La Victoire and try it on? Hope to see you soon!

13 Cash Shop Update: Love Triangle Bundle!
You know it just wouldn't be a proper Valentine's Day without a little thrilling drama, right? And what could possibly be more romantically entangling than a crazy love triangle? Well, now that I think about it... A love square, I guess. Or a love parallelogram. Maybe a love dodecagon. But those all sound kind of unwieldy, so love triangle it is! Unrequited passion is the theme of today's bundle, and lemme tell you that it's pretty spectacular! I guess you could say that I've really fallen for it. Eh? Ehhh? Oh stop groaning Cygnus, it's not like you could do any better. Anyway, without any further ado, allow me to introduce the incredible Love Triangle Bundle!

-

Modern Miko: Tasked with keeping her temple in order, the Modern Miko thought she had no room in her life for love. At least until the fateful day that a handsome prince walked into her temple, and she felt a peculiar flutter in her chest unlike anything she'd ever felt before. From that moment on, everything changed. Includes her fashionable dress, short coat, traditional shoes, headband, and sideswept hair.

The Smooth Imperialist lived a life of luxury, free from responsibility or deep emotion. A wealthy playboy, it never even occurred to him that he might fall in love—let alone fall in love twice. Torn between his love for a beautiful princess and a sweet priestess, he must choose who will win his heart. Includes his ornate coat, embellished hat, decorated boots, trailing black hair, and fan.

Princess Azalea: Royalty through and through, the young Princess Azalea is the crown jewel of the court. Although she could have any man she wished, she's set her eyes upon a certain dashing prince and is determined to win him over. Includes her flowing dress, coat, delicate boots, flowery crown, and opulently styled hair.

Available exclusively in the Love Triangle Bundle is the adorable Love Fox! With a passion for matchmaking, maybe this sweet fox is just the thing to help with this tricky triangle. Includes several foxy poses, elegant sleeves, and a glowing forehead jewel.

Wow! I gotta say, I'm feeling pretty romantical right now. Y'know, lovely ladies of this bundle—that prince ain't got nothing on me. I mean sure, he's super handsome. But does he sparkle like this?! No way! Just putting it out there. Anyway, this fabulous bundle is available now in La Victoire, so why not stop by and take a look around! Who knows, you might just find that special someone (or sometwo) browsing as well!

13 Valentine's Day Surprise Bundles in La Victoire!
So, I've already told you my favorite things about Valentine's Day, right? It's candy, mostly. Because who doesn't like candy? But there is one more thing that I really really like about this particularly holiday: gifts. You get 'em all over the place! But here's the thing—who wants a gift of jewelry or flowers? Pfft. That's boring. Don't worry though, I've got you guys covered. I've come up with a ton of bundles for you Gaians out there, perfect to give to your particular sweetheart! Or, you know, selfishly keep to yourselves. (Which is what I would do, personally.) They're filled with totally awesome goodies, so why not take a peek at all I have to offer?

14 Candy Hearts are back!
HAHA. Cygnus thought he could hide all the candy from me! Said it wasn't "good for my heart" and that it was "messing up my brain real bad" on account of me having been unconscious for six hours after eating a whole bucket of these tasty Candy Hearts. Well, joke's on him! He always hides things in the same place -- behind the drapes, like that would be hard for me to find -- and now I've got a whole stash of Candy Hearts ALL FOR MYSELF. Oh um. And for you guys, I guess! I suppose I ought to not eat all of them. I'm pretty sure it would kill me. So, okay, what the heck! Candy Hearts and their amazing prizes for everyone!

The way Candy Hearts work is that you pick a heart, and then you get to pick your prize: you can choose to receive a random valuable item such as Ribbon Candy or Kandi Kitten, or up to 250 million gold! It's an opportunity so sweet it'll probably make your teeth fall out! A few of mine are feeling a little loose, honestly. They're just so deliciously addictive... Anyway, they'll be available until 11:59 PM tonight! You might wanna try and visit before I eat all of 'em. No promises!

14 Limited Quantity Item: Teddy March in La Victoire!
Goooood day, Gaians! Have you had your daily dose of cute yet? Besides seeing my lovably smug face, I mean. Well get ready, kids, 'cause I'm about to put a heaping scoop of adorableness on your plates of awesome. I found a brand new item and it's so dang sweet it's about to give me a toothache! Or maybe that was from all the candy I ate earlier. Either way, I'm pretty sure I need to see a dentist! But you know what you need to see? This amazing item. Behold!

-

Oh my goodness. It's so cute I can hardly stand it. I can't. Deep breaths, Jet—you're gonna get through this. Phew... OKAY.

It's going to be hard to part with something so gosh darn cuddly, and it's even harder since I only managed to secure a limited supply of this great item!

They'll be available until February 16, 11:59 PM EST or until they sell out. Why not drop by and see it for yourself?

14 Rapturous Descent now available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Uh, hi guys. So, I've picked up my paintbrush once more. Shocking, I know. Still, it's nice that I can stick to my New Year's Resolution, right? I'm proud of myself for it. And, um—I have to say, I'm pretty proud of myself for this new recolor as well. I think it's something pretty special. Not gonna talk too much, since I'd much rather just show you what it is.

-

I'm gonna call it Rapturous Descent, and I think it's pretty amazing. Y'know, just wanted to do a tribute to, uh... Forbidden love? Not that I care about that sort of thing or anything. 'Cause I don't. ... Jet made me do it. Anyway, it'll be available in La Victoire, along with the original Rapturous Union and a bundle containing both of 'em called Rapturous Couple Bundle. They'll be on the shelves until February 15, 11:59 PM EST so stop by if you wanna take a closer look at my handiwork, I guess. So, uh... I'll see you there?

14 Adamant Vault, Bunnihilation, and Hardhearted
Salutations, science fans! Today is February 14th, and you know what that means: a brand new EI Report! ... What? Is something else going on? Honestly I've been so wrapped up in research that I haven't really been paying attention. What's that? Speak up Donny, for crying out loud -- what? It's Valentine's Day? And no one told me?! Oh. Well, now I feel kind of bad that I'm making everyone pull an all-nighter. I mean, not bad enough to cancel it, but you know. A little humbled. Still, scientific progress knows not the meaning of romance! Science is cold, and sterile, and completely and totally awesome. It's my real love, honestly. And hey, we've got something special for you today! Not only are Adamant Vault and Bunnihilation evolving, but we discovered a brand new EI: Hardhearted! Let's take a closer look, shall we?

-

Adamant Vault: There are still more treasures to uncover in the Adamant Vault. You reach a little deeper, discovering two new spectacular pieces of jewelry. Apparently, the actress had collected a few diamond antiques as well: a glittering diamond stomacher and a glowing diamond belt.

Bunnihilation: This bunny cafe is the cutest thing ever! You tie a festive balloon to your wrist as you sit down and wait for a server to take your order. Much to your surprise, an adorable little bunny with a pink apron hops up to your table with a slice of carrot cake. It stares at you with its giant blue eyes practically sparkling as it waits for your approval.

What kind of restaurant allows bunnies to serve food? Still, it does look like a tasty piece of cake... Hesitantly, you take the cake and sample a bite. Delicious! The bunny's nose twitches with glee as it hops off to serve other customers.

Hardhearted: Bored out of your skull, you wander aimlessly around your campus; you've started to feel stagnant and unmotivated, as if you're simply drifting through life with a purpose or reason. Maybe this walk will help clear your head. As you trudge quietly down the path, you notice glint of light reflecting off something from the corner of your eye. Well, at least looking for whatever is causing it could be kind of interesting. After a bit of searching, you find a CD case. Who even listens to CDs anymore? It looks like it's just a normal music CD inside the case...

Fascinating! Who needs candlelit dinners and chocolates when you've got such amazing discoveries to process? Unfortunately that's all the time we have for today, but be sure to visit La Victoire to see more of these glorious items in person! Also, please don't forget to vote in our Weekly EI Poll and let us know what you think! Remember: science is the only love that will never hurt you! Unless you're testing different acids. Goodbye!

As a special bonus to celebrate Bunnihilation's evolution, this little bunny wants to share its carrot cake with you!

15 February's Monthly Collectibles are here! 2014
You guys KNOW that the only thing that could possibly get me off Dropplr are Monthly Collectibles, and OHMIGOSHHHHH IT'S FINALLY TIME! I hope I hope I hope I can ship it! Here we goooooooooo!

-

February's Monthly Collectibles feature an edgy punk fashionista, and a handsome, preppy student—each of them both vying for the other's attention!

Attitude Alleycat: The Attitude Alleycat has never been shy or demure, so why can't she seem to tell the boy she likes how she really feels? Maybe if she changes her look a little he might notice her. Includes her skull shirt, punk-styled hair, piercings, shirt-ripping scissors, and more!

Sweetheart Schoolboy: The Sweetheart Schoolboy never expected to fall for a girl so unlike him, but he can't stop thinking about the amazing punk singer he saw in concert! He might need to try being a little edgier to catch her eye. Includes his school blazer, short permed hair, book bag, hair shaver, and more!

These incredible new items are now available at La Victoire!

15 Operatic Cantata now available in La Victoire!
Psst! Guys, it's me, Jet! Yeah, not Cygnus. What, he thinks he's the only one with some artistic talent? Pfft. Frankly, I find that insulting. We all know I'm absolutely stellar at everything I put my mind to. And besides, I'm sick of him getting all the attention for his "artistry" or whatever he wants to call it. Two can play at that game! So I sent him out on a few errands this morning, and I'm gonna take this opportunity to show off my first real attempt at this whole thing! Ohhhh man I'm so excited, I can't even wait any longer. Voila! My masterpiece!

-

Not bad, right? Admit it: it's totally awesome. I know, I know. I wouldn't expect any less from me either. Anyway, this super adorable little number is Operatic Cantata, and I think it's pretty much the best thing ever. Because I made it. Can you tell that I'm proud? 'Cause I totally am. Take THAT, Cygnus! And to kick it up a notch further, I'm also going to be selling the Cantata Musical Bundle with the entire collection of 'em. Anyway, they'll be available until February 16, 11:59 PM EST if you wanna come in and admire my fine, fine handiwork. Oh, and be sure to tell Cygnus how much better I am than he is. Can't wait to see you!

15 Please Help! Candy Overload!
Ugghhh... you guys... I don't feel so good. Maybe eating approximately 11,746 heart shaped candies yesterday wasn't my greatest idea ever. ...Who am I kidding? It was totally worth it! But Cygnus says if I eat any more my tiny cat tummy is gonna explode, and that I gotta get rid of all the remaining Candy Hearts we have lying around. So I guess it's your lucky day! Aside from being the most delicious substance on the planet, Candy Hearts also contain amazing prizes!

The way Candy Hearts work is that you pick a heart, and then you get to pick your prize: you can choose to receive a random valuable item such as Ribbon Candy or Kandi Kitten, or up to 250 million gold! It's an opportunity so sweet it'll probably make your teeth fall out! A few of mine are feeling a little loose, honestly. They're just so deliciously addictive... Anyway, they'll be available until 11:59 PM tonight!

Cygnus: Seriously though, everyone. Please help me get rid of these before Jet eats any more... you might just save a Kitten Star's life...

15 Limited Quantity Item: Bloody Cherub in La Victoire!
I feel like I've made it pretty darn clear that I think Valentine's Day is awesome. Any holiday that involves giving lots of presents and eating tons of candy is all right in my book, you dig? But apparently some people seem to be super into the concept of having an "anti-Valentine" or something like that. Whatever that actually means! Obviously I'm not one of those people—I love to love, baby—but I don't see any reason why we ought to exclude our curmudgeonly compatriots, do you? Especially since Valentine's Day is finally over. So I went out a-huntin' and sure enough, I found an item perfect for those who would rather finish up any V-day celebrating with a little blood and guts. Check it out!

-

The Bloody Cherub looks like he stole your heart—literally! If only he didn't look so dang awesome while doing it. Still, I don't really wanna mess with him. He creeps me out a little. Well, a lot. Since I don't feel super comfortable stocking a bunch of these in La Victoire, we'll only have a limited quantity to put on sale! They'll be available in the shop until February 17, 11:59 PM EST or until they sell out! Why not drop in for a visit and see what we've got in stock?

16 Limited Quantity Item: Trance Beats in La Victoire!
You know, Gaians, sometimes you just gotta let the music pump through you. Now, you all know me: I enjoy a good polka, or maybe some kickin' showtunes. But sometimes you want music you can dance to! Boom bow boom boom bop! That sorta thing. Look at me, laying down some sick beats like it's no big deal. Hint: it isn't. My amazing musicality aside, I decided I ought to find an item that properly represents how music can possess us all. And you know what? I totally found it! Not only that, but it looks pretty dang awesome to boot. Just check it out!

-

Now that is definitely something I can groove with. This fashionable little number is Trance Beats, and it's sure to help you find your rhythm! An item this cool is kind of a rarity, though, so I was only able to secure a limited supply of 'em! They'll be available until February 18, 11:59 PM EST or until we sell out! So why not drop by La Victoire and shake your groove thang with me? I promise it'll be fun! Hope to see you around, guys!

16 Merciful Demoness now available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: So I noticed a few great items are lacking a serious something: purple. Now, I'm not gonna say that purple is the greatest color ever. But, y'know... I'm not gonna say it isn't, either. So, uh -- I found an item that looked like it could use a healthy dash of my favorite shade, and I figured... y'know, why not? So, I set to work. The results? I don't wanna boast too much, but they're pretty amazing. See for yourself if you don't believe me...

-

Purple really does make everything even better. Some people might not agree with that, but whatever. That's what I think. And I believe that Merciful Demoness looks fantastic. I mean, it's not overly purple -- just the right amount to really make you appreciate the shade. Um... I think so, anyway. It's available now in La Victoire if you wanna see it for yourself or whatever. We'll have it in stock until February 17th, 11:59 PM EST. So, uh -- guess I'll see you around? We can talk about the colors we like, or something.

So long as you like purple.

17 Lulling Lucie and Lots of Lucies available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Um, hi Gaians. I don't know how many of you guys are aware, but I'm something of a collector. I'm sure Jet will make it seem like I have some sort of weird obsession or whatever, but I just like having complete sets of stuff. So sue me. But, y'know, I'm also something of a... customizer, I guess? You know, what's the point of owning all this cool stuff if you don't do anything with it. Something like that. So, um -- I have a bunch of the Lucie Dolls, and I decided to finally try my hand at painting one myself. And you know what? It came out awesome. See for yourself...

-

It's called Lulling Lucie and I think it makes a nice addition to my collection. But I wanted to make sure I made it available to you guys too, so um -- if you're interested in picking it up, it'll be available in La Victoire until February 19th, 11:59 PM EST. We'll also be selling Little Lucie 3rd Gen., Lovely Lucie, Lamenting Lucie, and Lavish Lucie. Oh, and a bundle of all the Lucies called the Lots of Lucies Bundle. Uh -- so, I know it's kind of a lot, but if you're a collector like me you might wanna check it out. I guess I'll see you around?

17 Coin Toss! Back for Limited Time!
Hey, it's your pal Nicolae again, back with your favorite lucky little coin. C'mere, you gotta get closer. I got something special here, buddy. A real winner. Remember Coin Toss? Well, I've 'found' another shipment, and it's still loaded with great prizes like these...

'Cept this coin is a little... different. Let's just say you've got some real influence over the outcome, you get me? So, you wanna play? Maybe Lady Luck is gonna favor you. Maybe she won't. But you look lucky to me, I gotta say. Only one way to find out if we're both right. I'll be hanging outside of La Victoire until tonight, at 3:00 AM EST. If you're feeling lucky, you should drop on by!

17 Princes and Thieves Bundle in La Victoire!
Y'know, Gaians, I always wonder what would have happened to me had I not entered the illustrious business of shopkeeping. Where would I have ended up? Would I have been a prince, or a pauper? Perhaps... a little of both? Being a prince of thieves does kind of have a ring to it. Robbing from the rich to give to the poor, swinging my scimitar left and right as I go on wild adventures! Admit it: you can totally picture me doing that sort of thing, right? Except with an appropriately kitten-sized sword. I'd be so utterly adorable! And you know I'd make it look good, too! There's a precedent of fashionable thieves that I've got to maintain. Don't believe me? Just see for yourself how awesome these guys look!

-

Swanky, huh? I tell ya, I wouldn't mind handing my cash over to someone as dashing as that. So why not sell the whole lot in a fancy bundle? The Princes & Thieves Bundle is now fully stocked up on our shelves, and will be available until February 19, 11:59 PM EST! Just don't go getting any funny ideas, now. It may be a bundle celebrating a life of larceny, but I'm going to be keepin' an eye out for any sticky fingers among you! Why not visit La Victoire and give it a look over? Hope to see you soon!

Jet here, Gaians! Remember how I snuck into Rina's garden, snipped a few roses, arranged 'em all nicely, and created the beautiful Roses and Romance? Well, after Valentine's Day I thought I'd keep a few and decorate the shop all nice. Y'know, spruce things up a little! But Cygnus won't stop sneezing... and I think he's tryin' ta make a point. So being the kind of stand up guy I am, I've decided to part with a few of 'em! That means it's your lucky day, because these gorgeous bouquets don't only look pretty; they come loaded with awesome prizes like these!

With Roses and Romance, you could win up to 250 million gold or great prizes, like Anurla's Amulet or even Rosamund's Rage! It's really simple: after you read your message (supplied by a totally willing to help shopkeeper, I swear) you get to choose whether you want an item prize or gold, and voila! Mystery presents abound! Is there anything more romantic than surprises? Well, I guess a bundle of a dozen would be pretty nice -- thankfully for you, we've got that as well! So why not drop by La Victoire and pick up a bouquet for your someone sweet? They'll be available until February 18th, 2:59 AM PST. Hope to see you soon!

17 Roses of Mare Serenitatis Gown and Fascinator in La Victoire
Cygnus: Hey, everyone. So, um... I guess you can say I have an interest in space since I'm, you know, actually from outer space. I've drifted around the inky black abyss, but there's just something about gazing up at the moon and stars from an actual planet that makes you feel... Poetic. Or in my case artistic, I guess. Seeing the colors of the night sky really inspired something within me, and I set about to create something great from that. Or, you know -- two things, I guess. Since I made two. But they kind of go together. Anyway, here, you can see for yourself:

-

A new sparkling gown and fascinator. I think they're pretty neat, right? They're called the Rose of Mare Serenitatis Gown and Rose of Mare Serenitatis Fascinator respectively. Not the most original names, I know, but, whatever. I never claimed to be all that great at those. Uh... They kind of evoke that feeling of seeing stars in the sky, I think. Anyway, they're both available in La Victoire until February 19th, 11:59 PM EST, if you wanna try 'em on and see how they look. See you around, guys.

18 New Horns of the Demon Recolors in La Victoire!
Hi, everyone! Y'know, having adorable kitten ears is great and all, but sometimes I wish my noggin felt a little more embellished. I've tried various things! Y'know: baseball caps, trucker hats, wiggly green antennae... None of 'em looked all that good, and Cygnus even said the antennae weirded him out a little. I'd given up hope of ever finding some proper headgear when I suddenly had a stroke of brilliance! If I couldn't find something that I liked, why not just make it myself? And so after hours spent napping in the workshop, along with an actual few hours of solid work, I've devised something that I think is absolutely perfect for me! Oh, and for you guys. 'Cause it's not all about me, really. Anyway, see for yourself!

-

That's right! Super cute new horns are now in La Victoire! We've got the White Horns of the Demon, the Pink Horns of the Demon, and the Red Horns of the Demon as well! Oh, and I even managed to scrounge up a few of the stylin' original Horns of the Demon, too. Now my problem is I have so many options I don't even know which one I want to choose! Thankfully, I've got some time to make up my mind, as these horns will be in the shop until February 19th, 11:59 PM EST. Do I like the pink? Yeaaaah but the white matches my sparkle better... Come visit and help me decide, Gaians!

18 Score a sparkling reward with Gambino's Prize Jewels!
Y'know, while Cygnus and I weren't really on Gaia when all that crazy Gambino family stuff was going down properly, it doesn't mean we still don't hear rumors about it all the time. People still talk about Johnny Gambino almost incessantly! He sounded like an interesting kind of guy, to say the least. I guess the nice way to put it would be... eccentric? Either way, I enjoyed the gossip for what it was: rumors and nothing more. Until I overheard some Gaian talking about Gambino's buried treasure! Well, y'know -- how could I resist? I handed Cygnus a shovel and set him to work digging holes all over Gambino's estate! People weren't happy, but I found that if I yelled A LOT and waved my arms around it was enough to distract people while Cygnus kept digging. And sure enough, we struck gold! Well, gold and jewels, anyway. Unfortunately they don't do me much good -- I already have enough sparkle, jewelry just distracts from it -- and Cygnus was mostly angry that I made him dig all those holes, sooooo I figured why not put these riches up in La Victore? It's not like Johnny's gonna be using 'em! I mean, look at all the neat stuff we found:

-

Pretty swanky, right? With the Gambino's Prize Jewels you could win up to 250 million gold, or great prizes like an Onyx Golden Princess Tiara or Ruby Spiked Wings! You'll basically be dripping with totally awesome jewels. Oh, and if you really wanna go all out you could even pick up a bundle of seven and see what other amazing treasures you can find! They'll be in the shop until February 19th, 11:59 PM EST so why not stop by La Victoire and give it a shot?

18 It's a Happy Anniversary to Gaia sale!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, GAIANS! Oh man. I'm so happy! Can you tell? Is it obvious? I'm almost shaking, honestly. Cygnus told me I was "vibrating with excitement" earlier and I told him to stop being such a grouch and come celebrate with us and then he just rolled his eyes and told me to stop drinking all the soda but GUESS WHAT it's Gaia's anniversary and I'm going to celebrate by doing what I love: ingesting massive amounts of sugary substances and holding an amazing sale for this most auspicious day! We've got tons of bundles here to help you show your support for Gaia, so let's dive right in and take a look!

-

We've got a bundle for each big area of Gaia's lovely landscape! There's the Barton Pride Bundle filled with everything you need to be a true Bartonian, a Durem Pride Bundle brimming with items perfect for a fashionable Duremite, the Aekea Pride Bundle for those of you who support everything Aekea, and the Gambino Pride Bundle for anyone who wants to celebrate their inner islander! We've also got the Gaia Pride Surprise, which could win you any of the bundles listed above, or even the super rare Gaia Pride Bundle filled with amazing, valuable items that any Gaian would love! These fantastic bundles will be in the shop until February 19, 11:59 PM EST so why not drop by and celebrate Gaia's anniversary in style? We'd love to party with you! Well, I would. Cygnus is still sulking, I think. Can't wait to see you!

18 The seal is weakening on February's 2nd Advance Chance!
Do you hear that? Please tell me I'm not the only one who does. I seem to be hearing some sort of amazing power ballad coming from our Advance Chance! It's most unusual. I mean, it's quite good! But I can only faintly make it out, and I'm a little worried that it might be a sign of my impending insanity. Oh, what would Ilan McGladstone do if he were in my shoes?! Probably something really heroic, involving rescuing beautiful women and punching bad guys in the face. Alas, I'm not sure I have the ability to do either of those. Well, at least there's a silver lining to all this. I might be going crazy but I am definitely not imagining the fact that February's Advance Chance II's seal has significantly weakened!

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the February Advance Chance II. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

How very exciting! You know, perhaps with this music playing in the background, I ought to turn my writing talents towards penning lyrics as opposed to novels? Hmm. That might not be the worst idea... Anyway! February's second Advance Chance will still be in La Victoire for a little bit longer if you'd like to grab a few! I'm off to go dig up my ukelele.

19 Help Orpheus save Eurydice in Underworld Descent!
I've done it, Gaians! I've written an amazing song about this month's Chance Item that is sure to make my novel look like a children's book! Just let me get the old ukelele here tuned up... Ahem!


 * I sing you a story, so listen thee well
 * Of beautiful Eurydice, for whom Orpheus fell
 * They adored one another, as couples often do
 * There was absolutely no question that their love was true
 * But Hades, our villain, was a most wicked man
 * And seeing fair Eurydice he concocted a plan
 * He kidnapped our girl and brought her to his lair
 * For Underworld gangsters never play fair
 * So it's up to Orpheus to make Hades repent
 * Can he truly save Eurydice in his Underworld Descent?

-

Whew! I'm well on my way to actual rockstardom, don't you think? Anyway, I hope you'll all pick up an Underworld Descent to help out poor Orpheus! Love is truly a tragedy of Grecian proportions. If you're feeling particularly adventurous you could even try out a bundle of nine! Don't forget that you could win a Cash Shop favorite, a valuable rare item, or a totally rockin' new exclusive. Will love triumph over evil? Is there hope for Orpheus and Eurydice? Will I ever finish my amazing ballad? There's only one way to find out!

Help Love Conquer All!

19 Adorable Cherubim Wings galore in La Victoire!
Y'know, flight is never really an issue to us adorable star kittens. I guess since we're from space and all that we don't really have to worry about gravity bringing us down all that much! I can totally float, I just choose not to. Why? Because it means I get to bother Cygnus to bring down stuff from the high shelves. And what's the point of living if you're not going to spend it annoying your best friend? Anyway, even though I can fly without any kind of assistance, I know that most people aren't able to achieve such incredible greatness. So I figured I oughta put up a bunch of wings in La Victoire to make things easier for everyone!

-

They're kinda small, I know, but they might be able to get you a few inches off the floor. And believe me, that's a great start! You don't wanna be soaring around the skies without having practiced it a little closer to ground, believe me. Anyway, these feathery little guys are called Cherubim's Lilac Wings, Cherubim's Cream Wings, and Cherubim's Navy Wings! Aren't they just precious? We're also selling Gabriel's Wings, Uriel's Wings, and the original Cherubim Wings as well! Oh! And we've also got an adorable bundle with all the wings listed above called the Fluffy Wings Bundle! Pretty apt description, don't you think? They'll be in La Victoire until February 21, 11:59 PM EST so be sure to drop by before these amazing wings flutter off!

19 Blade of the Forenoon Sky in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Um, hi. So, I'm aware that I tend to recolor a lot of... cute, or pretty stuff. I guess you could say it's my preference. Obviously I don't wear those things, but they're... y'know, fun to make. But sometimes I do get inspired to tackle something a little more masculine. So, I... well, did. It took a little while to get the colors right, but I'm pretty pleased with how this next recolor came out. I've got a picture, if you wanna take a look.

-

It's called the Blade of the Forenoon Sky, which I guess is kind of a mouthful. And it also makes me kinda of, uh... Hungry. Anyway, it's available now in La Victoire along with Blade of the Night Sky, Blade of the Dawn Sky, and Blade of the Midnight Sky. There's also a bundle called Blades of the Sky if you're interested in picking up the entire collection. They'll be in the shop until February 21, 11:59 PM EST, so I guess drop by and try something on? If you want. I'm gonna go find a candy bar.

19 Monarch Maiden now available in La Victoire!
Well, wouldja look at that? Seems like we got another shipment of an amazing item from Club Verge! I might not care all that much for P.U.G. but I gotta admit I always get excited when Lance drops off these boxes. Let's rip it open and take a look!

-

Monarch Maiden! YAY! It's finally here! Good, because I love catching me a butterfly or two, lemme tell you. Time to go release these outside so I can have fun chasing them around... In the meantime, Cygnus will be here watching the shop! So if you have any questions about this super cute outfit or wanna try it on, he's your big purple grumpy guy! See you when I finally tire of tormenting these monarchs!

19 Gambino's Prize Jewels leave La Victore soon!
Hey, everyone! We've still got a couple more jewels available for those of you who like to sparkle as much as I do. I mean, I can't be the only one who likes looking this good, right? Anyway, these amazing jewels are loaded with gold and prizes, just like the ones you see in this handy-dandy image!

With Gambino's Prize Jewels you could win up to 250 million gold, or great prizes like an Onyx Golden Princess Tiara or Ruby Spiked Wings!

20 The Scouring Hatter now available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Uh—hi, everyone. Still trying to not do "cute" things. Y'know. Change it up a little. So I did a little searching and I, um... Well I found something I thought looked pretty neat, and kinda masculine. After a little tinkering with the colors and all that, I think I came up with something that looks kind of awesome. It took a while but, y'know, I think it was pretty much worth it. Anyway, I'm tired of talking. Just take a look at it for yourself.

-

I like him. He looks kinda creepy. This is The Scouring Hatter and, y'know... I'm actually kind of digging not doing pretty stuff. It's good to change it up once in a while, or something like that. Anyway, it'll be in La Victoire until February 22, 11:59 PM EST, if you wanna come by and check it out. We've also got a bundle featuring the entire Hatter collection called It's a Mad Mad Bundle. Heh. See you around, or whatever.

21 Cash Shop Update: Dragonslayer Quest Bundle!
Does anyone else feel like their life simply isn't epic enough? As much as I love what I do, I sometimes feel like I'm just missing something. I want some danger! Adventure! Drama! Y'know—anything beyond the same day in, day out. Well, even though I can't seem to find anything all that exciting, Cygnus did suggest an alternative. He told me that Ivan likes to play something called "Gauntlets and Goblins"—it sounded pretty nerdy to me, but I was so bored I agreed to check it out. After Ivan had finished explaining what felt like five thousand hours worth of rules, we actually began to play and... Well. It was a ton of fun! He played this sweet little sorceress gal and I was this rookie adventurer, lookin' to make my name as a hero, and we went on this totally epic quest and it was just a blast! That dude Ivan is all right, y'know? Anyway eventually we had to stop—Ivan said something about having to practice his ukelele—but I enjoyed our story so much that I set about making a bundle of it. And, well... Voila! The totally kick butt Dragonslayer Quest Bundle!

-

Spellbound Enchantress: This cute little mage has a courageous heart and a way with magic, even if it sometimes fizzles out on her. All she wants is to rid the world of evil dragons—she's just not sure if she can handle a quest of this magnitude alone. Includes her mage hat, tall boots, robe, structured cape, white hair, and heterochromic eyes.

The Adventurer's Legend: This young warrior was just hanging out in a tavern, unsure that he could ever truly accomplish something heroic, when a desperate enchantress approached him for help. Now he has a quest and a purpose, and is determined to slay that wicked dragon! Includes his shirt, belted pants, blue boots, messy black hair, adventuring bag, and quest scroll.

Osseus Drakon of the Valley: This fearsome dragon may not be the largest in the land, but he is almost as fierce as he is notorious. Includes several epic poses and your own pair of wings.

Available exclusively in the Dragonslayer Quest Bundle is the Dancing Wench Tavern! This cozy tavern is the place where it all began; our heroic adventurers met in this very bar! Includes all one needs in such a tavern, although you'll have to supply your own grog.

Totally awesome, right? And now you can use it to have your own great adventures! I guess I oughta thank Ivan for helping inspire this, so thanks Ivan! You're a huge loser but I like you anyway! I guess I have a soft spot for those types, COUGHcygnusCOUGH. Here's hoping this great bundle inspires you to set off on an exciting quest!

Adventure Awaits!

21 Inconsisten Sea and Vagran Sea now in La Victoire!
Cygnus: All right, well. You got me. I tried some guyish stuff and I definitely had fun with it, but I could only stay away from cute stuff for so long. Sue me, I guess. Or, y'know. Don't. Whatever. Either way, I had an itch to color something pretty and I uh... Well, I scratched it. Twice. Came up with two super nice new recolors that I think you guys are gonna like, even if dresses aren't your thing. I mean, I don't wear 'em and I still like these items. So, um... Here they are:

-

I kinda had some fun naming these. They're called Inconsisten Sea and Vagran Sea. Heh. Jet told me they were "super ridiculous" but whatever, I'm still mad at him for saying he was better at this artist thing than I am. Anyway, they're on sale now in La Victoire along with Whim Sea, Wood Sea, and Wisteria Sea. There's even a collection of all of 'em called the On a Whim Bundle if you want the whole set. They'll all be in the shop until February 23, 11:59 PM EST so drop by, if you want.

Sea you later. Heh.

Stop making that face, Jet.

20 Companion Bundles now available in La Victoire!
Y'know, sometimes I get to thinkin' about stuff. Life, the universe, Dancing with the Kitten Stars—you know, the usual! I'm pretty deep like that. But sometimes I wonder what my life would be like without my old buddy Cygnus. I mean, sure: he's cranky, obstinate, quiet, and more than a little weird. But he's also my best friend! And, as much as it pains me to admit it, I definitely don't think I could run La Victoire without his help. I mean, who else would do the heavy lifting and keep track of the inventory? Me? That ain't kitten star work, let me tell you. Anyway, I guess I'm just pretty lucky that I've got myself a sidekick. I mean, even if he claims he isn't one, it's totally obvious who the one in charge here is. (It's me. I am the one in charge.) But then I started to wonder... What if some people out there don't have a Cygnus? Y'know, a big lug to order around and boss about and sometimes hug, no matter how much he or she complains? That kinda bums me out. So I figured, why not sell a few bundles with tons of great friends in them? And since all my ideas are super brilliant, that is EXACTLY what I did! See for yourself!

-

It's a friendly free for all! We've got the Sugar & Spice Companion Bundle for anyone lookin' for a little romance, the Creepy Companion Bundle filled with buddies who you maybe don't want to hang out with a ton, and the Animal Companion Bundle so chock full of adorable companions that I can barely stand it! We've also got the Companion Surprise, which contains any of the bundles listed above or maybe even the rare Super Companion Bundle, with tons of valuable friends that promise to keep you company! They'll all be in La Victoire until February 22, 11:59 PM EST so why not drop on by and see if you can find a new friend or two? I'll just be over here, forcing Cygnus to give me a high five to celebrate how awesome we both are. See you around!

20 Limited Quantity Item: Kitty March in La Victoire!
Hey, Gaians! Now, I'm sure you all remember our super adorable item Teddy March, right? I mean, how could you forget it? It was so dang sweet it nearly gave me a toothache. But y'know, it got me thinking—what could possibly be cuter than teddy bears? Well, it didn't take me long to have another of my patented flashes of brilliance. Why, I'm cuter than a bear, certainly. I mean, just look at me! And since I'm so gosh darn lovable, it stands to reason that kitties in general would be even cuter than teddies. My logic is airtight, friends. So I set about making a few tweaks here and there, adding on heaping piles of adorableness, and VOILA! I've created what is quite possibly the most CATastrophically darling item in the history of the entire known universe. BEHOLD MY BEAUTIFUL CREATION:

-

Kitty March, ladies and gents, is clearly where it's at. Teddies? Pfft. They don't even hold a candle to how amazing this item obviously is. My supplies were kinda low, though, so I was only able to make a limited supply of them! They'll be in the shop until February 22, 11:59 PM EST or until they sell out! Man, I now firmly believe that every item could be improved by making it about kittens. I have yet to be proven wrong, just saying. Why not stop by La Victoire and see the proof for yourself?

20 Limited Quantity Item: Copper Snippet in La Victoire!
The hunt was on, friends. There I was in the middle of a crowded market, foraging for an item set that would be perfect for La Victoire, going through piles and piles of items! There's a lot of riffraff to sort through, in case you were wondering. And the market can be kind of a scary place to be! Especially when you're a little tinier than most, and there are lots of stompy boots around, and no matter how hard you sparkle no one seems to notice you and they step on your tail and UGH. The nerve of some people. Anyway, even though it's kind of dangerous, nothing is gonna stop me from supplying La Victoire with the best items out there. And y'know what? That trip was totally worth it. Just take a look at what I found!

-

It almost makes having my tail stepped on worthwhile! This is the charming Copper Snippet, and it's available now in La Victoire. Unfortunately the vendor I picked it up from didn't have a lot in stock, so we've only got a limited supply to sell! It'll be available until February 22, 11:59 PM EST or until we sell out. Now, if you'll excuse me, I gotta bandage up my poor, beautiful tail... I'll still be around in the shop if you need help with anything, though!

20 Flynn's Booty and Chest are back!
Ahoy, my little space cadets! Pirate Cap'n Flynn the Ferocious here, back on Gaia to offer you all shares of my amazing plunder—and also to get a little me time. You know what's terrible about space? Everything! It's so cold! And space food is just awful. After a good day's piracy all I want is to relax with a good book and a nice bubble bath, but my ship isn't equipped for such things. It's driving me nuts! So I'll be on Gaia until February 20, 11:59 PM EST just to get some rest and relaxation. Anyway, if you'd like to win tons of gold, why not check out Flynn's Booty and Flynn's Chest in La Victoire? Each Booty has the chance to contain up to 100 million gold, and my Chest contains up to 250 million gold! There will also be convenient bundles of each up for sale. Now, if you'll excuse me, I do believe I'm due for an indulgent spa treatment! See you the next time I drop by!

21 Pick a Card and Let It Ride are back!
Hi, everyone! I finally managed to get some time off of work, so I figure what better way to spend it than playing a few card games with my favorite people in all of Gaia? No, no, I'm not talking about my Edmund body pillows. At least not this time, anyway. I'm talking about you guys! Everyone at Gold Mountain says I ought to be a little more social, so would you guys mind indulging me in a few hands of Pick a Card and Let it Ride? I'd super appreciate it, and they're really easy to play! But first lemme give you a little sample of the great prizes you could win...

Need the rules explained to you? Sure! With Pick A Card all you have to do is choose the card that reflects how adventurous you're feeling and you could win tons of gold or a valuable item. Just remember that the bigger rewards come with bigger risks! Let It Ride not only gives you the chance to nab some great, valuable items, but you could win anywhere from two million to one billion gold! If you score gold with your Let It Ride card, you'll have the option to LET IT RIDE! If you're successful, you'll win double the amount of gold you originally scored! If you aren't successful, you'll walk away with half the original amount you won. As they say, no loss means no gain! Wait... I don't think anyone says that. Actually that doesn't really make a lot of sense. Anyway, it doesn't really matter! I've got a few days off, so I'll be hanging around until February 22nd, 11:59 PM EST if you wanna play! Hope to see you real soon, okay?

Deal me in!

21 EI Report: Adamant Vault and Hardhearted
It's Friday at long last, my scientific sweets! We've been having a wonderfully productive week at the labs thanks to my new, patent pending, motivating methods! I've pioneered a few different ways to get my lab assistants and interns to really give everything their all, although the most effective method so far seems to be playing duckstep music very loudly over the speakers. Oh, they might complain about all the quacking and "wubwubs" but they sure do get their work done fast! Mostly because they want to get home and escape the racket. Still, it's effective and efficient, and any scientist worth his basalt would appreciate both those things! And with such amazing productivity comes equally astounding evolutions. Both Adamant Vault and Hardhearted evolved today, so let's take a look!

-

Adamant Vault: Already practically dripping with diamonds, you pull out three more gorgeous pieces. The famous starlet this jewelry once belonged to would no doubt have to attend a number of movie premieres and award shows; that must have been her clever excuse to add more and more diamonds to her collection. Studying the jewelry you've just discovered, you find that you now possess a scintillating diamond bertha, a pair of brilliant diamond shoe clips, and a huge flashing diamond gem.

Hardhearted: After finishing your daily boring routine at home, you plop into bed and decide to pop in the strange CD you found earlier in the day. Settling back with your headphones on, you tentatively press the "play" button on your CD player. At first the hard beats and aggressive vocals were kind of intimidating -- you nearly turned the album off after only a few seconds -- but after a while it started to grow on you. After listening to a few tracks, you became completely hooked.

Fantastic! Maybe I ought to try playing Hardhearted over the loudspeaker instead of duckstep and see if that encourages my employees to work even harder? Hmm -- I smell a future experiment! Unfortunately that's all the time we have for this week, but be sure to tune in next Friday for your Evolving Item Report! Don't forget to vote in our Weekly EI Poll, and remember that you can see all these items and more in La Victoire! See you all next week!

22 Bundle of Fur now available in La Victoire!
Okay, serious question for you guys. When did my shop become a second home for wayward cats?! Just when I think I'm done finding people to adopt them, a whole new crew shows up on my doorstep! And I can't just turn them away, y'know? They're cats! My brethren! I mean, sure, I come from the cold, dark reaches of outer space, but I'm still an adorable kitten at heart. How could I ever turn away a needy kitty? Besides, Cygnus always seems more than happy to take care of 'em all. Particularly since it gives him an excuse to say things like "Aren't you guys so much cuter than Jet?" and "Jet, why can't you be as nice as these cats are?" Ugh. He's awful smug for such a quiet guy. Anyway, I've got a whole new passel of feline friends for you, so please take a look!

-

These cute little guys simply couldn't bear the idea of being separated, so they're being sold together in the Bundle of Fur! It might not come with a lint roller, but it does come with tons of kittens looking for a good home. Do you think you could help me out a little? They're eating all my cat treats! This adoption drive will only last until February 23, 11:59 PM EST so drop by soon if you'd like an armful or two of sweet kitties.

22 Benevolent Duke of Lalune available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: I'm a big fan of the Revolution games. I mean, that kinda goes without saying. Who doesn't love them? They're fun, they're engaging, all the crazy plots and super complicated raid encounters... Kinda wanna play some right now, actually. But, y'know, first things first. Since I enjoy the games so much, I kind of wanted to do something for them. Y'know—a tribute or something, I guess. So I decided to take my favorite character from the game and give it my own kinda spin. Came out lookin' pretty good, if you ask me. Take a look:

-

Admit it. He's kind of... boss. Heh. Get it? 'Cause he's a raid boss. Man, I gotta stop spending so much time with Jet, he's clearly starting to rub off on me in the worst kind of way.

22 Candy Hearts are back!
That's it. I can't take it any more! I've still got tons of these Candy Hearts despite having eaten a ridiculous amount of them, and even though they taste so darn good I just can't do it any more. I can't eat them! And it's such a tragedy, because they really are fabulous. I'd hate to see them go to waste! Could you guys help me out with them, pleaasseee? You'll get a great reward out of it, I promise! Maybe even something like these fancy prizes:

The way Candy Hearts work is that you pick a heart, and then you get to pick your prize: you can choose to receive a random valuable item such as Ribbon Candy or Kandi Kitten, or up to 250 million gold! Simple AND delicious -- just the way I like it! They'll be available until February 22nd, 11:59 PM EST. Why not chow down a little and help a kitten out? I've got such a tummy ache that I've gotta lie down for a bit...

22 Gold Shop Update: Fashionable First Date Night!
Gaians, you all know me: I'm an unabashed, true romantic when it comes down to it. What could possibly be more wonderful than finding yourself someone to share the rest of your life (or I guess in my case, unlife) with? Love is truly what makes the world go around, and there is just nothing more exciting than fresh, new love. And I, being the generous vampire that I am, would enjoy nothing more than being responsible for a whole slew of sweet, budding relationships. With that in mind I set about creating some new garments perfect to impress your special someone with on a first date! Please, feel free to inspect my fine wares yourself:

-

Ah, l'amour. With amazing fashions like these how could you not fall in love? It's simply impossible! You can find most of these fine pieces in H&R Wesley, but there are also a few in Barton Jewelers and Buttercup Cafe. Please, browse at your leisure and enjoy. And remember, Gaians: holding hands is perfectly acceptable on the first date!

Let's Go Shopping!

22 Vigilant Arc now available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Okay, so. Been thinkin'. I do that a lot. I like cute stuff, I like manly stuff. They're both cool. So, uh. I think my next piece should be something that has qualities of, y'know... Both. It took a little searching, but I eventually found an item I thought fit the bill. You know—a strong and tough warrior, but still pretty and kind of soft. That's what I thought, anyway... So, um. Anyway. Here it is, if you want to see:

-

Vigilant Arc looks like she could probably beat you up. And look good doing it, too. I respect that. It's now available in La Victoire, where it'll be on the shelves until February 24, 11:59 PM EST. We've also got the Arc Covenant Bundle if you're looking for the entire collection, including a totally awesome doll/action figure. It's a collector's item—trust me, I would know. Anyway. See you in La Victoire, I suppose.

23 Limited Quantity Item: Whale Tale in La Victoire!
So, I figure it kind of goes without saying that me and water don't exactly mix. It's not just a "oh, cats don't like water" kind of thing either! I'm a little more, um—full of mass, I guess, than most people assume given my adorably diminutive stature. Comes with the whole being from space territory. I sink like a rock being drawn into a super massive black hole in the center of a dying galaxy. But that doesn't stop me from appreciating the creatures of the deep! I know I talk a lot about the virtues of cats, and how we're obviously the most awesome animals ever (which we are), and how all other animals might as well stop trying to be as cute as us, buuuttt... Well, I found these adorable little guys in the marketplace, just looking for a good home, and I just couldn't say no! I mean, could you possibly turn these lovable new friends down? Look at them! Look at their faces!

-

THEY'RE SO CUTE. He's got a festive little top hat, and she's got that sweet little bow, and... Darnit! They're totally giving me a run for my money. Whale Tale is making me question my own superiority. It's mildly uncomfortable. At least I can comfort myself by HUGGING THEM. You have to hug them, by the way. They're so gosh darn huggable I mean look at theeeem. We managed to secure a nice supply of them, and they'll be in the shop until February 26, 11:59 PM EST or until we run out of them. Why not drop by La Victoire and let them entertain you with their cuteness?

23 Indulge your inner gourmet with yummy food bundles!
Now, I'm pretty sure everyone knows that I enjoy me a good meal or two. What's not to love? Gourmet cuisine is clearly where it's at! Unfortunately my little bitty arms make it kind of hard to use the stove, and Cygnus outright refuses to do anything except nuke the occasional frozen dinner in the microwave, so we're pretty much starved for some proper nutrition around these parts. That doesn't stop me from dreaming, though! I can spend all afternoon picturing mountains of sugar-frosted pastries oozing with chocolatey goodness, or savory roasts dancing a (kind of a little strange, admittedly) can-can across a table loaded with bittersweet beverages of every shape and size! Sigh. A kitten can only dream, alas. But my rumbly tummy did give me a good idea for some tasty bundles, annnnd—voila! An absolute feast!

-

What are all these delicious treats, you might be wondering? Allow me to fill you in on all the details! We've got the Sweet Food Bundle loaded with scrumptious dessert-inspired fashions, the Savory Food Bundle filled with items sure to make your mouth absolutely water, and the Bitter Food Bundle that is anything but tasteless! We've also got the Yummy Food Surprise, which can give you any of the bundles listed above or maybe even the fabulous Super Food Bundle stuffed with rare delicacies! They'll all be in La Victoire until February 25, 11:59 PM EST, so why not drop by La Victoire and drool over them with me? Bonus points if you bring snacks!

23 Godly Spice now available in La Victoire!
Aha! Betcha all thought I was gonna concede and let Cygnus do all the coloring, didn't you? HA! Fooled you all. If that stammering philistine had half the talent I clearly possess, he wouldn't be so dang insecure about everything! Want proof of my obvious superiority? Strap yourself in, folks, 'cause it's gonna be a real doozy. I've concocted a great new recolor that's sure to make Cygnus blush a deep purple—a deep purple of shame. Behold, my latest masterpiece!

-

Before you is the Godly Spice, so named because it is awesome, and also I am awesome. So awesome it's almost uncanny? You bet your tail. We'll be selling it in La Victoire, along with Sinful Spice and Devil's Spice until February 25, 11:59 PM EST! You can also grab the entire collection in our handy Spice Bundle. I'll be signing autographs all day if you'd like to stop by and marvel at my amazing talents!

23 Withering Revenant now available in La Victoire!
My reign of artistic superiority continues, my fashionable friends! I'm just laying down one masterpiece one after the other. Boom, boom. My talent is downright explosive! Also, this all probably sounds a bit like nonsensical mumbo jumbo. Well it kind of is! But an artist has to be confident, right? Showing off your work to the entire world is kind of a scary prospect, and so I'm aimin' to fake it until I make it! And lemme tell ya, I think this new item here is gonna make a real splash in the art scene. I mean, what could possibly be better than floating pink cuteness? Well, me. But besides the obvious. I mean, just look at how awesome this is!

-

The Withering Revenant is so gosh darn pink that I just wanna pinch its cheeks or something. On a scale of one to ten, it's a solid "oh my god so adorable I looovee it" -- according to Rina, anyway. It's available now in La Victoire, along with the original Faded Revenant if you wanna try it on! They'll be available until February 25th, 11:59 PM EST. See ya in the shop!

24 Looking to win some great prizes? Then visit Carnival Day!
You know one thing that everyone loves? A carnival! There's all the great fried food, the fun rides, the crazy shows... It's all so whimsical! But my favorite part -- besides stuffing my face full of funnel cake -- has to be the awesome games on the fairway. So what if I'm really terrible at them? I can still enjoy it, right? I just don't like to play against Cygnus, because he's surprisingly good at the ring toss. Anyway, the great thing about carnival games is that they're not only super fun to play, but they always have amazing prizes that you could win! And I love me some prizes, guys. Almost as much as I love the carnival itself! So I figured why not start the week off with something a little... different? That's right! We're gonna be having a little mini carnival of our own right here in La Victoire, complete with games that could win you prizes or gold! It's officially Carnival Day, everyone!

No tickets required to attend! All you gotta do is drop by La Victoire and pick up a Carnival Day. That gives you the chance to play one of our exciting games: Knock 'Em, Ring Toss, and Whack 'Em! Each one gives you the opportunity to score some fabulous prizes; you could win up to 500 million gold, or maybe even a valuable item like Volant Reverie 2nd Gen. or Monsieur Loyal's Reprise! The carnival is definitely back, baby. I gotta find myself a kicky little hat to go with my new role as a carnival barker (or I guess carnival mewler, in my case) but feel free to drop by and try our games! The carnival packs up at February 25th, 11:59 PM EST, so we hope to see you before then!

Everyone Loves Carnival Day!

24 Limited Quantity Item: Pandy March in La Victoire!
Helllooo, everyone! Well, it certainly does look like we're truly beginning to march towards March. The march of time marches ever onwards, doesn't it? Step in time and you won't fall behind, that's what I've always said! But people always tell me that I like to march to the beat of my own drum and that I'm as crazy as a March Hare, and—Okay, okay, I admit it: I'm out of punny sentences involving the word "march". But honestly, this amazing item is so fabulous that it really needs no introduction! Ladies and gents, please allow me to present the adorable Pandy March!

-

It's super cute and chic to boot! I mean, obviously I don't think it's as adorable as my own little Kitty March, but that little blushing panda is just darling! It's available now in La Victoire, and it'll be in the shop until February 28, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out! That's right folks, we've only got a limited number in stock. Why not march on down to La Victoire and see all the fantastic items we have available?

24 Coin Toss is back in La Victoire!
Well now. Fancy meeting you around these parts, huh? I'm guessing you've come to see your pal Nicolae 'cause you're looking for something real special, right? You're not gonna settle for something less than exceptional. Real respectable like. Hey, no worries. Nicolae's got something perfect for you, believe me. I've managed to get my hands on some more Coin Toss and I'm lookin' to sell it to a trustworthy customer such as yourself. Interested? You certainly will be after seeing the amazing prizes it has...

So, how does my incredible Coin Toss work? It's simple. Grab a coin and pick your prize: a fabulous item, or plenty of gold. How much? Up to 100 million gold. You could also win great items such as Mini Nitemare Wings, Onei the Dark Unicorn, Princess of the Universe, or even a Panda Hat -- all at the toss of a coin. Easy way to win big. Boom. Done. It's so simple that the guards get a little jealous about it, you know? So I can't stick around for long. I'll be here until February 24th, 11:59 PM EST. After that I've got some other business dealings that need my attention. But hey -- why not test your luck while I'm around? You never know what you might get.

25 Limited Quantity Item: Purrfect Mien in La Victoire!
Look, I'm pretty obvious about how I feel about us cats, but let me say it again for those of you who might not have been paying attention: we're awesome. Super, completely, totally and absolutely amazingly awesome. Why? Lots of reasons! Our adorable little whiskers, paws, and noses. Our fuzzy ears and wiggly tails! Our beautiful singing voices! Wait a minute... Ahem! MimimimiMEEOOOOOWWW. See? Like an angel whispering into your soul. Oh, hang on. Cygnus just left the room mumbling that he "doesn't get paid enough to listen to this" I think. Hah! Joke's on him, he doesn't get paid at all! Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that cats are the best. And fashion based on cats? Also the best. Just look at this adorable item and tell me it's not the greatest thing since, well... Me!

-

Purrfect Mien is exactly as the name says—it's pretty much perfection! And it's available now in La Victoire in limited quantities! 'Cause everybody wants to be a cat, but not everyone can, you know? If everyone was an adorable little kitten who would we lord our superiority over? It's available until February 27, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out! Ah... It just simply doesn't get any better. See you around!

25 Rena the Unicorn and more now available in La Victoire!
Y'know, with all the crazy stuff that happens in my day to day life, sometimes I just kind of want to escape to a world of fantasy. Of dreams! Y'know, where there are fields upon fields of delicious cat treats, and where the rivers are made of delicious whole fat milk! Tuna flowers burst up from the ground like edible roses, and the air always smells faintly of cat nip. Siiiggh. So amazing, am I right? Unfortunately, I'm pretty much stuck here in reality. You know what creature is really a dream, though? This adorable new unicorn I've just found! Everyone, please meet my new friend!

-

Rena the Unicorn is a little shy, but she's just as to guide you through your dreams as all the other unicorns! Who we are also selling in the lovely Unicorns Galore Bundle, in case you were wondering. They'll both be available until February 26, 11:59 PM EST so you've got plenty of time to catch a nap or two before you come visit!

25 Limited Quantity Item: Mark of the Unsound in La Victoire!
Look, guys, I'm gonna tell you a little bit of a secret about myself... But you gotta swear that you'll keep it quiet, okay? Promise? Good. So, the truth about me is that I talk a big game, but sometimes when it gets right down to it I'm kind of a scaredy cat. I especially can't stand horror movies! Ghosts and ghoulies just really don't do it for me, I'm afraid. Literally! But the problem is Cygnus lives for horror films. He watches them all the time! Sometimes I think he does it just to upset me. But to save face, I gotta sit there and watch them with him and just... Ugh! Ugh! They make my fur stand on end, everyone. I hate it! But y'know, the other night we were watching this movie about a guy who lives in an asylum, and he's haunted by this creepy nurse ghost, and—well, y'know, the parts I could watch through my paws were pretty interesting! So I decided to take some of that inspiration and run with it, and now I've crafted a creepy item that promises to make your skin crawl! Check it out—if you DARE:

-

Oooh! Spooky, right? Okay, maybe not. But you gotta admit it looks great! This is the Mark of the Unsound and it's available now in La Victoire. I could only make a couple of them before I got too wigged out, though, so we've only got a limited supply in stock! It'll be on the shelves until February 27, 11:59 PM EST or until it all sells out! Please pick up a few—I'm a little worried that La Victoire is gonna attract some ghosts if this item sticks around for too long!

AND THEN THEY WILL CHOOSE ME AS THEIR LEADER AND I WILL RULE THEM ALL. AHAHAHAH—I mean. Um. Ahem. Annyyyywaaayy, I'm excited to greet all these new critters.

25 New adorable animal avatars have arrived on Gaia!
Oh boy, Gaians. Are you guys sitting down for this? 'Cause you might wanna be. Something crazy is going on and I'm not even entirely sure how to explain it! I guess I oughta just start from the beginning... For a while now I've run a little blog, posting about my life on Gaia and what it's like to be a talking cat in what is, essentially, a human's world! Sometimes it's a little tough, but I couldn't picture anywhere else being as amazing a place as Gaia is—particularly for us talking animals! Of course, I just wrote the blog for fun. I didn't think anyone ever actually read it! Little did I know that, apparently, I had a larger audience than I thought. My latest post on how wonderful Gaia is got a lot of attention from other talking animals, and now they've all flooded my store demanding to be a Gaian just like I am! It's crazy, guys! But I can't turn them away. I mean, Gaia really is the best place to be if you're a talking kitty. Or a talking bear. Or a talking wolf. But I'm getting ahead of myself!

-

Basically, we've got a bunch of adorable new animals running around Gaia who want to dress up and look fabulous, just like everyone else. And who am I to say no?! As long as they don't make me wear any pants, I'm totally okay with all these new friends. I'm going to do everything I can to make them feel as welcome as possible! And so I've started a little "animal's only" section of Barton Boutique, filled with plenty of great basics to help get our new pals situated! I even got a couple of them to model my newly minted fashions. Take a look!

-

This is just a small sample of what you can pick up from my store, Barton Boutique. I've also talked to Vanessa and she agreed to put out some stylish products for the critters in Salon Durem as well! Oh, and also Natasha from Skin Tyte promised to help out a little too. Rina and Agatha also put out a few things in Buttercup Cafe and Barton Jewelers as well!

Now, I'm sure you're all wondering how you can help our new friends acclimate. Because remember: these guys aren't pets, they're Gaians just like you and me! And so I've devised a buddy system that's easy as can be! Simply visit your avatar dress up to pick out your new pal with the handy dandy button above your avatar! You can choose from a wonderful wolf, cute cat, or a beautiful bear! Once you've made your selection, you're free to dress them up as you see fit! They'll even appear in forums and towns and everything! After all, they want to be Gaians just like the rest of us.

So, Gaians. Can you bearly contain your joy over this amazing new feature? Does it make you want to howl with excitement? Are you mewing for more? Well, don't worry! I'm here to make sure these guys get the full Gaian experience, and so you can be sure that there will be tons of new content coming out for our new fuzzy friends shortly!

26 In La Victoire: Spinel Flourish and Amethyst Spiked Wings!
Oh man. Just when I thought today couldn't possibly get any more exciting, that huge, smelly dog wonderful shopkeeper P.U.G. sent me more unexpected presents! You'd think he might wrap the delivery boxes or something, but eh. I guess I can't complain! All right, just gotta use my claws here to rip this box open. That's always a little tricky, but surprisingly satisfying. Aww man, what's with all the packing peanuts?! AUGH, I just wanna see what's inside! Just a little more and... OH WOW, it's so cute!

-

Looks like that weird dog sent us Spinel Flourish Wings and Amethyst Spiked Wings! Boy, I really love the colors. I like the Spinel ones myself, but I've got a hunch Cygnus is gonna prefer the Amethyst ones on account of them being purple. Well, I'm going to stock these right away! They're available in La Victoire now, so drop by and try them on!

26 Belletristic Beauty now available in La Victoire!
Y'know, Gaians, I'm not normally much of a reader. When books are about the same size as you are, trying to turn a page can sometimes become a grotesque misadventure. And I've certainly never once been to a library, I can tell you that much! What, they want me to keep a card? Pfft! Jet doesn't use cards! Just give me what I want because I told you I wanted it, yeesh. But if that library just so happens to have a librarian as foxy as this new recolor... Well, I might have to rethink my position entirely! I mean, wouldn't you?

-

Pretty lady! This is Belletristic Beauty, and she believes that reading is fundamental. But lookin' gosh darn amazing is a pretty close second, clearly. She'll be available until March 1st, 11:59 PM EST if you'd like to try on her fabulous and fashionable clothes! Now, if you guys will excuse me, I'm gonna try reading this copy of War and Peace in front of her and hope I impress her a little...

26 Workshop Lilie now available in La Victoire!
Does anyone else ever wonder what life would be like if all the color suddenly drained out of the universe? Like, if everything just became black, white, and a little grayscale? Would it be kinda like an old-timey film, you think? I bet people would revert to wearing awesome fedoras and coats, with the ladies swoonin' all over the place in their flouncy skirts. Or, you know, maybe it would be nothing like that. More importantly: if the world was nothing but black and white, would I still sparkle as amazingly as I do now? Y'know, these are deep questions, and I couldn't even begin to think up answers for them. But I can explore that strange black and white universe a little with some recolors! Like this one I've just come up with -- take a look!

-

Workshop Lilie doesn't necessarily look like she's steped out of a black and white film -- at least not any film I've ever seen -- but she does look fantastic! With her cute dress and kickin' boots, I feel like she's ready to take on anything! Would you like to try on her outfit? It'll be available until February 28th, 11:59 PM EST, along with the original Workshop Flora. Drop by and we can ponder life's big questions together!

Hi, everyone! Rufus the original talking cat here, just dropping in to offer a big welcome to all of our adorable new fuzzy residents! Is everyone settling in okay? I hope you're all enjoying everything Gaia has to offer! From its fancy shops to its yummy cafés and wonderful citizens, there certainly is a lot here to love! Anyway, I know things are a little bit crazy, but I just wanted to personally thank each and every Gaian for being so warm and welcoming to all the new critters. It's not easy moving to a new place, and it's even crazier when you're a talking animal, but you guys are really making it a fantastic experience!

26 Win an NPC's signature items with Gaia Cast Collection II!
Now, I'm sure I don't have to explain to any of you guys that Gaia has its fair share of memorable characters. Are some of them a little crazy? Weird? Not as awesome as me? The answer is yes to all of the above questions, in case you were wondering. But there is one thing I gotta give 'em props for: their fashion. These guys sure know how to dress up! Whether it's a fancy hairstyle, gorgeous makeup, or just a pair of sensible trousers, a true Gaian original always manages to make it work. Which is why I've set about creating bundles centered on specific members of Gaia's illustrious cast! Here, just take a peek at some of the stuff I've put together:

-

With Gaia Cast Collection II you could win a bundle filled with one of your favorite character's items! We've got some amazing classics like The Ringmaster Collection Bundle and The Mad Hatter Collection Bundle, but I've also come up with some new ones like the adorable Artemis Collection Bundle or the Wisteria Collection Bundle!

27 Candy Hearts & Roses and Romance back in La Victoire!
Aww, man. Can you believe February is already almost over? What jerk decided to make this month so much shorter than all the other ones? I like February! What other months have holidays that you celebrate with copious amounts of candy? ... Besides October. Oh, and I guess whichever month Easter happens to fall in. Also, I think a lot of people eat candy on Christmas? Okay, maybe that isn't the best argument for adding more days to February. But it doesn't matter! I really enjoyed this past month, and I'm gonna be sad to see it go. If nothing else, February being a celebration of romance and love really sets it apart from the rest of this year! So, to end the month with a real bang, we're bringing back Candy Hearts and Roses and Romance a final time for the year! Oh, and just in case you need a little refresher on all the great items you could score, here's a handy image!

With Roses and Romance, you could win up to 250 million gold or great prizes, like Anurla's Amulet or even Rosamund's Rage! And with Candy Hearts, you get to pick a heart, and then you get to pick your prize: you can choose to receive a random valuable item such as Ribbon Candy or Kandi Kitten, or up to 250 million gold! Can you guys feel the love? Especially with these great new bundles containing 24 Roses and Romances or 24 Candy Hearts, each of 'em being sold for a 50% discount! Can life get any sweeter? Man, I doubt it. The sale ends when the month does, so at February 28th, 11:59 PM EST. Let's finish February with a real lovefest, everyone!

27 Experience the power of the elements with amazing bundles!
"Wind! Water! Fire! Earth! The great and mighty elements that make up the whole of Gaia!" Remember that, guys? It's a line from that incredible TV show from about twenty years ago, Captain Gaia. Did any of you ever watch it? It featured a bunch of plucky teenagers (and their talking parrot friend Jinxie) with candy bracelets that they could use to summon the amazing Captain Gaia, who would then help fight trolls polluting our lovely towns and shops! It was supposed to have some sort of "message" or something but I don't know, I mostly watched it to see Captain Gaia kick butt. I mean, he wielded the power of the elements! How cool is that? Man, I love that show. I was watching a rerun of it the other day and, y'know, it gave me some real inspiration! After a little digging through my inventory, I managed to put together some great bundles patterned after the GREAT AND MIGHTY ELEMENTS, as Captain Gaia liked to call them. Check it out!

-

27 Stellar Wish now available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: All right. Well, for anyone who might not know, I like the color purple... A lot. Y'know, all shades of it. It just makes everything look better. So, um. I guess it shouldn't be a surprise that I like to use my favorite color on some items to pretty 'em up a little. So I took another one of my favorite items, splashed on a little purple, and -- well, made it look fantastic. Here, see?

-

The magic power of purple, I tell you. It works wonders. Anyway, this is Stellar Wish, lookin' fresh and cute as some newly picked wisteria. It's available now in La Victoire, and it'll be on sale until March 1st, 11:59 PM EST if you're interested on purple-fying yourself.

I thought we'd sold out of all of these! But I must've squirreled some away in the back, I guess? Aaanndd then completely forgot about them. Whoops. Hey, I'm still pretty new to this whole shopkeeping thing, all right? No judging! Besides, inventory management has always been Cygnus' job anyway. I'm just here to run the register and be as cute as kittenly possible. Which I do FABULOUSLY, thanks very much. Well, anyway! No sense in hanging on to these any longer, right?

27 Get a head start on March's first CI with Advance Chance!
Does anyone else smell that? There's a distinctly pungent aroma in the air, wouldn't you say? I can't quite tell what it is, but it does smell rather delicious. Is someone cooking? Strange, there are no restaurants anywhere near here. My goodness, something about this smell is so enticingly familiar, though! It really takes me back. Did you know that I once enjoyed cooking? It's true. Before I entered my current line of work, I'd spend hours upon hours slaving over a hot stove, crafting an expert dish that would be sure to impress my parents and friends. My specialty? Grilled cheese sandwiched between two patties made of raw ramen noodles! It's... it's a lot better than it sounds, believe me. Ah, yes. I truly used to dream big, my friends. Maybe I ought to head on down to my kitchen and see if I still have the magic within to create culinary delights. TO MY RECIPE BOOK!

Oh, but before I forget! Did you notice that we have next month's Advance Chance already? How very exciting!

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the March Advance Chance. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

My goodness, just thinking about what could possibly be inside really whets my appetite! March's Advance Chance is available now in La Victoire, if you'd like to pick up a few for yourself! Now, does anyone know where I can purchase powdered sea cucumber?

28 Limited Quantity Item: Bunny March in La Victoire!
Fashion marches onwards, ladies and gents! And just when I thought things couldn't possibly get any cuter. First teddies, then kitties, then pandies... Now this? I can't stand it, Gaians! The cuteness! It's giving me chest pangs! Is this... is this jealousy? Knowing that no matter how hard I try, I will never rival this amount of adorableness? It... Huh. I think I have some deep thinking to do, guys. Some real soul searching. Just talk amongst yourselves. Here, I'll even give you a topic: just take a good look at this Bunny March, everyone. Is it just cute, or is it the cutest?

-

Hnghghghnhgh. Okay, I've thought about it. It's the cutest. I admit defeat. Just this once, okay? Bunny March, you win. I am not as awesome as you are. SAVOR THIS MOMENT, Bunny March. It will never happen again! This dusky pink-hued ball of sugary sweetness will be in the shop until March 2, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out! Excuse me, I think I need to go cry a little now.

28 Starless Artemis and Mint Artemis available in La Victoire!
So, let's talk about Artemis! No, not the Greek goddess of hunting and all that—she's been talked about enough, trust me. We don't need to go over her. No, I'm talkin' about everyone's favorite adorable little spirit, our Artemis! She's a plucky little gal, ain't she? Doesn't even let the whole "being undead" thing stop her from achieving her dreams. And what were those dreams? Why, to be closer to space, of course! Well, technically the sky and the moon. But I mean, we all know the real reasons behind that, right? She wanted to be like us awesome star people! Right? I mean, I assume that has to be the real reason. Why else would she wanna be that high up? Heights are awful! I can deal with them now, but they used to make me get all spacesick. Well, anyway, I'm kind of getting off topic. What I'm trying to say is I like Artemis! And so I took her signature clothes and decided to make some new versions in fashionable colors! Check it out:

-

Even Zombie Artemis won't hesitate when it comes to her dreams! These lovely new recolors are Mint Artemis and Starless Artemis and they're as cute as buttons, if buttons were actually cute. They're available now in La Victoire, along with Coral Artemis and the original Artemis herself! We've also got the Artemis in the Sky Bundle featuring the entire collection! They'll be in La Victoire until March 2, 11:59 PM EST so why not try 'em on? You never know what heights great fashion will take you to!

28 Huge discounts on Candy Heart and Roses & Romance!
Phew! I can't believe how much surplus we still have of Roses and Romance and Candy Hearts! I mean, the shelves are starting to thin out some, but we've still got a lot left to go and February's end is really starting to creep up on me. Since I'm lookin' to move this stock out, I'm gonna go for a big February finale! But first, a little reminder of how ridiculously awesome both these items are:

With Roses and Romance, you could win up to 250 million gold or great prizes, like Anurla's Amulet or even Rosamund's Rage! And with Candy Hearts, you get to pick a heart, and then you get to pick your prize: you can choose to receive a random valuable item such as Ribbon Candy or Kandi Kitten, or up to 250 million gold! Now, the best part? I'm going to be offering select bundles for 65% off! That's a huge discount, guys! At least, I think so. I'm not so good at this math thing. Cygnus said it was, anyway. Remember, this sale ends at 11:59 PM EST, February 28th, so I hope to see you guys in the shop soon! I seriously can't eat any more of these Candy Hearts, everyone. I think my brain will explode from all the sugar.

28 Flynn's Booty and Chest are back!
Thar she blows! That "she" being me, of course! Flynn's back, baby, and she's better than ever! I took a little break to have some me time, just like I mentioned last time I visited Gaia, and really did some soul searching. And by "soul searching" I mean I laid by the pool for a while and worked on my tan. Do you know how hard it is to maintain a nice bronzed sheen in space? It's IMPOSSIBLE. Anyway, after all that relaxing I felt so energized and awesome that I immediately went back into space and showed everyone what a ruthless pirate I truly am. The result? Tons of booty! And I'm willing to share you in on a cut of the profits, if you're interested. So Flynn's Booty and Flynn's Chest are both back in La Victoire, and they'll be available until February 28, 11:59 PM EST. Each Booty has the chance to contain up to 100 million gold and my Chest contains up to 250 million gold! Why not pick up a few and see what you win? I'll be here, "soul searching" a little more. Space ciao, everyone!

28 Keiko's Trifle now available in La Victoire!
You guys might have noticed by now that I've got something of a... sweet tooth. Nothing bad! I just enjoy my Sugar-Blasted Fruity McSours like every other star kitten out there, thanks very much! And also those delicious Brownie Ohs. That plus a bowl of chocolate milk? Mwah. Heavenly. But as good as breakfast cereals loaded with EXTRA HEALTHY MARSHMALLOWS SUGARS are, they can never compare to the buttercream wonder of the real thing: cake. Cake, my friends. Sweet, delicious, frosted cake. Is there anything better? Yes, but only one thing. MORE CAKE. I've been craving it like crazy but Cygnus is putting me on some kind of diet -- something about how the gravity here on Gaia is different and I'm starting to get paunchy from all the Candy Hearts I ate. As if. Still, thoughts of delicious pastry haunt my every thought. At least one good thing came out of it; I turned that hunger into some inspiration, and voila! Divine, fashionable deliciousness ensued!

-

Keiko's Trifle is a celebration of all things sweet and lovely, and all in stunning new colors! You really ought to check it out. We're selling this plus the adorable Keiko's Cake here in La Victoire! They'll make you want some cupcakes something fierce, lemme tell ya. Just looking at it is making me hungry... Ugh. Someone come buy all these before they torment me further! They'll be in the shop until March 2nd, 11:59 PM EST. Hopefully Cygnus will agree to take me off this silly diet by then...

28 Win an adorable new fur with Just Fur You!
Hey, animal pals! You guys all settling in okay? Need anything special? Ready to accept me as your true leader and Lord Emperor yet? No? Okay, that's cool. Look, I don't hold a grudge. Take all the time you need! But let me tell you one thing: as a kitten myself, I am sensitive to your specific animal needs. For example, I know that if there's one thing we critters like, it's lookin' good. I personally spend almost all free time grooming my fabulous coat, because there's nothing I enjoy more than having the sparkliest fur this side of the Milky Way. So I figured, why not put something together that allows all the new animals to win tons of great furs? Brilliant! I mean, who wouldn't want to look as adorable and fashionable as these wolves, kitties, and bears do?

-

The new Just Fur You is perfect for changing up your look to something more fabulous! You could win anything from a Cream Panda Fur to a Fox Fur, or even other originals from Skin Tyte! But that's not all: we've also added brand new furs this time around! Ever wanted to have refreshingly Minty Fur or look mysterious with beautiful Silver Fur? What about a delicious Chocolate Fur that makes you smell great too? Well, friends (and future subjects), I've got you covered. We've even got amazing new Husky Furs and Calico Furs as well! So why not try out a Just Fur You and see what amazing coats you might win? You probably won't sparkle as much as I do, but I'm sure you'll come real close!

Oh, and I heard Natasha whipped up some awesome new furs exclusively for gold in her shop! You ought to drop by Skin Tyte and check them out when you have the chance.

28 EI Report: Adamant Vault and Hardhearted
Ah, Friday at the end of February. What better day could there be for some scientifical experimentationing? Or for making up new words? There simply couldn't be! We've had a wonderful week here at the Evolving Item Labs, testing out all sorts of wild new theories and collating tons of beautiful, beautiful raw data. I tell you, nothing sets my heart aflutter more than seeing columns upon columns of numbers, just waiting for some good old-fashioned statistical analysis. Of course, my first love is and always will be Evolving Items! And we've got a real magnificent showing for you today. Let's take a closer look at Adamant Vault and Hardhearted and get this report on the road!

-

Adamant Vault: It seems that our leading lady managed to become famous enough that she started to get invited to royal events! The jewels you find in the vault this week are from this era, where having a tiara wasn't just a luxury, but also a necessity. It seems that you've found a luminous tiara, a glamorous overdress, a diamond studded wig, and a blazing diamond halo.

Hardhearted: You find yourself totally addicted to this amazing new sound! It inspires you to try changing up your style and cutting your hair -- you even try out some new piercings that you performed yourself! Ouch... You've made some drastic changes, but life has never felt (or looked) this good!

Spectacular! That Adamant Vault might possibly be the shiniest thing I've ever seen! I'm not really a glamor girl, but all those diamonds... Imagine the x-ray lasers I could build with those babies! Unfortunately that's all we have time for this week, but be sure to tune in to next week's report for brand new updates! Don't forget to vote in our Weekly EI Poll, and remember if you want to see any of these evolutions up close they're available now in La Victoire. 'Til next time, science lovers!

01 Ready for an epic quest? These Adventure bundles will help!
Y'know what, Gaians. Sometimes you just gotta set your hearthgem, buy lots of food and magic potions, repair all your armor, and just go and punch a dragon straight in the teeth. Or, you know -- heal the guy punching the dragon. Or chuck a fireball at it. Or, if you're feeling really brazen, sneak up behind the dragon and steal all its precious loot, and then punch it in the teeth. Guess which one I prefer? NONE. Because I don't play video games -- that's always been Cygnus' thing. But he put together these bundles, so I assume they gotta be pretty awesome. Say what you will about the purple lug, but the guy has got some pretty killer taste. Let's take a look, shall we?

-

Hmm! Not bad, Cygnus -- not bad at all! No matter what your preference (or class) is, we've got the perfect bundle just for you! The Warrior's Adventure Bundle has everything you need to grind your enemies into a fine paste, the Mage's Adventure Bundle features fashionable garb sure to make you the most popular sorcerer in the village, the Thief's Adventure Bundle is loaded with goodies perfect for sneakin' around and pilferin', and lastly the Healer's Adventure Bundle has some great clothes in it, so you can look fashionable while your entire party blames you for wiping! Haha, I'm just kidding. (But it was probably your fault.) We've also got the Surprise Adventure Bundle, which could win you one of any of the bundles listed above, or potentially even the rare Super Adventure Bundle filled with totally epic gear! They'll be in the shop until March 3rd, 11:59 PM EST, so why not drop by La Victoire before setting off on your epic adventure? Just remember: it's dangerous to go alone!

01 Beyond Blue now available in La Victoire!
Ah, the color blue. So soothing! So calm! Like a clear sky on a crisp autumn day. At least, that was what Cygnus told me was his inspiration behind this latest "piece" of his. Apparently he's busy fixing an inventory mistake I made and he can't announce it, but that's okay! We all know I'm way better at this than he is. Anyway, even I gotta admit that this new recolor really is something special. I'm not sure if I feel soothed looking at it -- well, maybe just a little -- but it sure seems gorgeous! See for yourself!

-

Beyond Blue is all casually relaxed fashion, wrapped up in a neatly colored bow. It's available now in La Victoire, along with Beyond Brown, Beyond Blush, and Beyond Black! Oh, and if you're looking to collect the whole set? Totally got you covered. We have the Beyond Bundle II in stock as well! They'll be in the shop until March 3rd, 11:59 PM EST so why not try it on and take your fashion beyond where you ever thought it could be?

01 Divinity's Reach is back!
Hello, Gaians! Rigel and Mintaka are back again, although only for a brief stop on your quaint little planet. See, we decided to go on a galactic road trip! You know, see the sights of the Milky Way? It's nice being back home, but honestly we're starting to get a little bored of lounging about the house, snacking on Cheesy Space Balls and downing liters of Nebuola soda. So we packed all those things up in a spaceship to take along with us as we journey across the stars! We're refueling on Gaia now, and since we also packed a few Divinity's Reaches for the road, we figured why not offer some for sale? I mean, they've got such great prizes in them. See for yourself!

Divinity's Reach is full of heavenly rewards, from sacks of gold to beautiful, super rare items! You can score up to five million gold, a popular Chance Item, one of a variety of gorgeous backwings, or possibly even a valuable 2003 Monthly Collectible! Such beauty! Such grace! I mean, obviously we're talking about ourselves here, but the same could be said about Divinity's Reach! We intend to hit the Galactic Highway by March 1, 11:59 PM EST, so be sure you stop by La Victoire soon if you want to catch us!

01 Win some gorgeous new wigs with Splitting Doll Hairs!
Hah! Check this out. I was going through Cygnus' things while he wasn't lookin' -- sometimes he hides the candy from me in his room, so I gotta do a little snooping to find it -- and I found something totally weird. But also kind of awesome? Weird that he has it, I guess, but awesome for you guys. So Cygnus sometimes likes to try and customize his "action figures" as he likes to call them, right? Dude's gotta have hobbies. Turns out, though, that he made a ton of wigs for 'em! Like, nice ones. Ones that I kinda wanna pop on my head and rock. Anyway, it seemed kind of selfish to me for him to keep these all to himself when there are Gaians out there looking for some new fabulous coiffures, so I... Well, you know. I stole 'em. Not all of them! I just doubt he needed this many. I mean, look at how cool they are!

-

Amazing, right? Boy's got some real talent. Now if only he weren't so dang awkward. Anyway! You can win amazing hairs like these in the new Splitting Doll Hairs, available now in La Victoire! Cygnus will be kinda mad when he finds out, but I think when he sees all the Gaians rocking these fashionable looks he'll be totally into it. After he pouts in a corner for a while, presumably. Anyway, I'm not looking to take them out of the shop any time soon, so why not drop by and see which amazing wigs you might win?

02 Look your best for the GaiAcademy Awards with new bundles!
Award shows! The sweeping grandeur of the red carpet! The fabulous stars and starlets! The awkward banter of the host! The forced musical montages! The pained smile on someone's faces when they lose the coveted award! Truly, is there anything more agonizingly dull than an award show? Wow. I tried watching one once and I was asleep fifteen minutes into the dang thing. I do like seeing what everyone is wearing, though. And with the GaiAcademy Awards coming up, you know people are gonna be bustin' out their A game!

02 And the winner is... You! Open an envelope and win a prize!
I guess it shouldn't really come as a surprise that I wanna be a winner. Who doesn't want to be on top? I mean, I'm totally confident in how awesome I am, but it'd be kind of nice if I... I don't know. Won a prize for it or something. The Sparkliest Fur Award? Best Catch Phrases from a Space Kitten Trophy? I mean, are these too much to ask? Ah, well. I guess we can't all have shelves filled with accolades, can we? I gotta find other ways to make myself feel good. And you guys too! 'Cause you know what? You're all awesome. And you deserve to feel awesome! So I've stuffed a bunch of envelopes with awards that I might have made up in a sugar-induced rush, and loaded 'em up with great prizes like these!

-

With the Gaia Awards, you're guaranteed to take home a fabulous prize! It could be up to 250 million gold, or even rare items like Stellar Night or Hero Manner! The best part is you get to pick which one you want: gold or items! See, that just means that my special awards are, like, a bajillion times better than anything else. I'll have the envelopes until March 3rd, 11:59 PM EST if you wanna pick one up and see what you win! As for me, well -- I guess I'll just stay behind the counter and do my thing. Wait a minute, what's this? It's a little homemade certificate. Huh, looks like Cygnus' handwriting. What's it say? ... It looks like I've won the award for "Most Annoying Star Kitten Ever, While Still Remaining Slightly Bearable To Be Around". Oh, Cygnus! You tolerate me! You really tolerate me!

02 Limited Quantity Item: Romantic St. in La Victoire!
Ah, the life of a city girl! I imagine it must be quite exciting. I mean, I can't say for certain. I'm not a girl in the city, for one thing. But y'know, I read lots of magazines! Well, I look at the pictures, anyway. I find the modern fashions inside to be really inspiring, you know? I can't wear any of it, but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy it. So as I was walking through the market, questing for an item that might catch my eye, I spotted a brand new set that I think would appeal to those gals I see in all the magazines! It's fun, flirty, and perfect for spending a fabulous night out on the town! Just take a look for yourself, you'll totally understand:

-

Romantic St. is all decked out for a fun date night, where she's sure to impress with her impeccable style! At least, that's what I'd like to think. Ah, to be her beau... A kitten can dream, friends.

Hi guys! Just a quick reminder that it won't be long before the adorable Bunny March hops its way right off the shelves! If you're a fan of rabbits or staggering amounts of cuteness, it's definitely the perfect item for you. I mean, how could you possibly resist its pink-hued charms?

Bunny March will only be in La Victoire until March 2, 11:59 PM EST, or until it sells out! So why not march right on down to La Victoire and give it a spin? Side effects may include a sudden hankering for carrots and potentially lethal amounts of sweetness. In other words, it's totally awesome. Hope to see you soon!

02 His Apathy now available in La Victoire!
Look, if there is one thing nobody could ever accuse me of, it's being apathetic. You can call me a lot of things! Amazing, fabulous, gorgeous, awesome -- but never apathetic. I'm an expressive kind of cat! I mean, I'm cool. But I might not keep my cool all the time, if you get me? That being said, I might wanna try being a little more stoic and removed if it means I look as great at this guy does. I mean, just see for yourself!

-

Maaan, he looks so awesome! Fashionably aloof, I suppose. His Apathy is available in La Victoire, along with the Darkness Consumes Him Bundle with the entire collection! It'll be in the shop until March 4th, 11:59 PM EST if you wanna try it on. I bet it ups your cool factor by, like, twenty percent. I'm not sure I can honestly pull off being handsome and withdrawn, but I bet you folks out there could!

02 Limited Quantity Item: Pitiful Tearful now in La Victoire!
All right, critters! Listen up! I'm gonna give you some advice here. You're new to dealing with humans, and that's okay. They're kind of weird. But I've been around them long enough and I've learned a few tricks. One: do not poke humans in the eyeballs if you can avoid it. Apparently they don't think it's as funny as you do. Two: humans are excellent for getting things down from high places. Utilize this tip whenever possible, as it is one of their main functions. Three: if you are as pathetic and adorably helpless as possible, the humans will fall all over you in an attempt to take care of you. No, seriously! One time I pretended Cygnus stepped on my tail and he felt so bad about it he totally let me take a nap in his lap. And while Cygnus might not be human, the underlying principle is sound. Now, to help you master this art, I've devised a new item that is sure to pull a few heartstrings...

-

BEHOLD. No person could resist such utterly agonizing cuteness! Wearing this around and making sad faces at the humans will totally get you far, believe me. This works like a charm. Just remember: be Pitiful Tearful! I gotta limit the quantities of this available, though, 'cause if every animal used it then it would be less effective... It'll be on sale until March 4, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. And stay tuned for more valuable tips!

02 Phantasm Zivva now available in La Victoire!
Anyone else feeling a little bit... wicked? Man, I don't know! I just wanna do something meddlesome. Knock something breakable off a shelf. Scratch the furniture. Maybe puke on some of Cygnus' clothes! Hmm, it's quite tempting. But I guess I oughta channel my mischievous impulses towards something good -- which is exactly what I did! Instead of being bad, I decided to be productive. I sat down and made this awesome recolor, and I figure since it's just ever so slightly evil lookin' it counts as doing a misdeed! A fabulous misdeed, mind you. I mean, look at how amazing this came out:

-

Phantasm Zivva might look bad, but she can't help it -- she was pixelated that way! It's available now in La Victoire, and will be on the shelves until March 4th, 11:59 PM EST if you wanna try it on and indulge in a little wickedness!

03 Cash Shop Update: Endeering Picnic Bundle!
Ah, spring! It's so close I can practically smell it! You know what it smells like? Sunshine, daisies, fresh grass, and adorable woodland critters. Well, okay, maybe not that last part. In fact I bet woodland critters probably don't smell that great. But I'm pretty excited for the season to start changing! I ain't much for the cold -- I had more than enough of that living in the frigid depths of space, thanks very much. Anyway, I just couldn't hold back my excitement anymore! I gotta find ways to celebrate spring's incipient arrival, and so I figured why not throw a fun little picnic? I mean, sure, it's still a little too nippy to have an actual one outside. But how about one here? In La Victoire! With a fun little bundle to really get you into the spring of things? 'Cause I totally did that. Let's take a look at the adorable Endeering Picnic Bundle, everyone!

-

Deer John: John is gentle young man eager to impress his lovely date as they welcome spring with an outdoor picnic. Includes his hair with antlers, light brown coat, knitted sweater, mid-calf pants, strapped shoes, and a monarch chrysalis necklace.

Doe-Eyed Darling: This shy girl's heart is all a-flutter on her first date... Is he really as sweet as he seems? Includes her wide-eyed gaze, soft ringlets, fawn-skin patterned coat, empire-line dress, printed leggings with legwarmers, and a single-antlered fascinator.

Corn the Squirrel: This pink little critter is so over digging for stored acorns and perfectly ready to steal someone else's lunch! Includes several cute poses and your own tail and pair of ears.

Available exclusively in the Endeering Picnic Bundle is Spring Court Coronation! Features everything you need for a perfect picnic celebrating the start of spring. Includes colorful outdoor decor, delicately fluttering butterflies, and beautiful pink monarch crown.

03 Win some fabulous items or gold with Love Me, Love Me Not!
Y'know, there are plenty of means for divining whether someone loves you or not. Magic 8 Balls. Psychics. Actually asking the object of your affections whether they like you. But who wants to use any of those methods? Those are boring! Nah, I prefer the excitement of pulling petals off a flower and learning my chances for romance that way! Loves me, loves me not, loves me, loves me not -- loves me! Hey, look at that. I do love myself! I knew it. Anyway, I stole a bunch of pretty little daisies from Rina's garden (she has like a gajillion, don't worry, she's not gonna miss these) and I'm offering up their amazing precognitive services to Gaians everywhere! Of course you're not only gonna get an answer to your most burning questions. You'll get some awesome prizes, too! You might even win one of these:

-

With Love Me, Love Me Not you pluck petals until you get your prize! It could be anything from up to one billion gold or a fabulous item, like Summer Groom or Lethe Rose! That way even if you get an answer you didn't want, you at least still get something awesome out of the equation. Why not try one out and see what you might win? These amazing flowers will be in the shop until March 4th, 11:59 PM EST, so drop by before then if you'd like to avail yourself of their fortune telling prowess and prizes!

03 Wendy's Memories and Wendy's Kindness in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Hmph. I read a book the other day. It was kind of a weird one. Had pirates with hooks for hands, a kid that apparently liked wearing tights, and a girl who trusted strangers enough to follow a weird boy to a place called Neverland. I mean, nothing against any of those characters, they seemed nice enough. And, uh... I guess technically it was a story intended for children. But I actually kind of liked it? I mean, I can technically fly and I guess I've met some space pirates in my day. So, y'know. Seemed like a pretty plausible story in retrospect. Anyway, it got me a little inspired, and so I set to work makin' a few new recolors I think you might like.

-

Wendy's Care and Wendy's Memories are now available, if you wanna try them on and see how they look on you. Can't really do it myself -- I don't wear dresses. Or tights, just for the record. I do think they'll look nice on a lot of Gaians though. They'll be in the shop until March 5th, 11:59 PM EST, so come visit and let Jet annoy you while you browse.

03 Divinity's Reach is back!
Oh dear, Gaians. Just when we thought our galactic road trip was really going to get underway! It seems that Rigel decided to drive a little more recklessly than our ship would have liked—as a result, we've accidentally redlined the engine! I'm furious, of course, and I've sent Rigel off to find someone to get it fixed. In the meantime I suppose I'll just lounge around my home away from home, enjoying everything Gaia has to offer. Oh, and indulging in my favorite past time, of course: making Gaians more fabulous! How, you might be wondering? Well, Rigel did leave me with a few Divinity's Reaches before heading off to find a mechanic. And look what beautiful things they have in store!

Divinity's Reach is full of heavenly rewards, from sacks of gold to beautiful, super rare items! You can score up to five million gold, a popular Chance Item, one of a variety of gorgeous backwings, or possibly even a valuable 2003 Monthly Collectible! They're available now in La Victoire and will be in the shop until March 3, 11:59 PM EST—hopefully by then our ship will be up and running. If not, then Rigel is going to be in some serious trouble.

03 Love Me, Love Me Not now available in a 24 pack!
Wow, guys. I just had a very... interesting encounter. So after Rina found out that I had raided her garden -- again, ahem -- she stomped right on over here to give me a piece of her mind. But when I told her that the flowers were being used for things romantical in nature, she changed her tune fast! Started talking about "shipping" and stuff like that? I'm not sure I followed. I mean, what did she want me to ship, and where was I gonna ship it? Is she into yachts? Anyway, she squealed excitedly for a bit and then disappeared, only to return with TONS more flowers. And hey, I wasn't gonna say no! So now we've got a fantastic 24 pack of Love Me, Love Me Not, which gives you ample opportunity to win great prizes like these!

With Love Me, Love Me Not you pluck petals until you get your prize! It could be anything from up to one billion gold or a fabulous item, like Summer Groom or Lethe Rose! That way even if you get an answer you didn't want, you at least still get something awesome out of the equation. Remember, they're in the shop until March 4th, 11:59 PM EST, and don't forget to thank Rina if you see here out and about!

03 Exciting changes are coming to Monthly Collectibles! 2014
Ohmigosh. Have you guys noticed that we've got TONS of adorable critters running around these days? I can't handle it! They're all so cute! I'm locked in this perpetual feedback loop of squealing over them! I can't stop it! SQUEEEE lookit that one. He's got such little ears! And she's got such a fluffy tail! Oh my goodness. But you wanna know the best part? Rufus came up with the idea of making Monthly Collectibles available to our little furry friends, and I was like... THAT'S THE BEST IDEA EVER! He's so smart for a cat, even if he won't let me put pants on him! So from now on, Monthly Collectibles are going to have three items: two for humans, and one for critters! I'M SO EXCITED! Why can't my letter open noooooowwwwww?

Jet: Looking for a treat that's equal parts fashionable and delicious? Well then look no further, friends! I've created something amazing: wearable cat food couture! Yes, this was a long time coming. I've been developing this for weeks now, and I can say with certainty that it's going to take the fashion world by storm! Feast your eyes on my most amazing masterpie -- wait. No, no, get off of that! Shoo! My... my beautiful clothes... I knew I shouldn't have opened up my shop to every stray cat that wandered in! They've already eaten half my garments! Noooooooo!

04 All recolors in Dernier Cri 25% off & new miniwing recolors!
Bonjour, mes amies. Did you miss me? Ah, but a true performer never fully abandons his audience—but what is showmanship without a little extra anticipation? Besides, I've been hard at work in my absence. What, did you think I was just sitting around, twiddling my thumbs and taking the occasional nap? I mean, I might have been. But I managed to find the time to fold in a little work as well. And, oh! Such pretty little things I've come up with. Perhaps you'd like to see behind the curtain? Take a peek? But of course—I'll allow it. See for yourself...

-

As you can see, I've added a few new treasures to my dear friend Brennivin's store. What's even better is that they are for humans as well as for our new furry little friends. Bienvenue, small ones! Your friend Monsieur Loyal did not forget you! Now, to the details. I've made a lovely little list here for you to consult, to keep track of all my beautiful creations.


 * • Mini Mint Angel Wings

Until next time, friends. As always: enjoy the show.

04 Pick a Card and Let It Ride are back!
Hi, guys! I've been working really hard on practicing all my shuffling and dealing, lately. It's harder than it looks! Everyone in Gold Mountain does it with such flair and panache -- I'm not quite there yet, but I'm getting better. Would you guys mind helping me practice, though? I'll make it worth your while! After all, playing cards with me means you would win fabulous prizes like the ones pictured here:

Need the rules explained to you? Sure! With Pick A Card all you have to do is choose the card that reflects how adventurous you're feeling and you could win tons of gold or a valuable item. Just remember that the bigger rewards come with bigger risks! Let It Ride not only gives you the chance to nab some great, valuable items, but you could win anywhere from two million to one billion gold! If you score gold with your Let It Ride card, you'll have the option to LET IT RIDE! If you're successful, you'll win double the amount of gold you originally scored! If you aren't successful, you'll walk away with half the original amount you won. And to make things even better, I've discounted the big bundles of Pick a Card and Let It Ride 50%! They'll be in the shops until March 4th, 11:59 PM EST when I have to return to my day job of minding Prize and Joy. At least I'll have some fun in the mean time though!

04 Limited Quantity Item: Braided Carnation now in La Victoire!
Ever feel like your hair just isn't long enough? Luxurious enough? Pink enough? Sparkly enough? I mean, I never have. Have you seen my fur? One word: glorious. But I sympathize for people who might not look as fabulous as I do! And if you've ever asked yourself any of the questions I listed earlier, then never fear. Jet's got the cure for what ails ya! Wanna see what it is? I'll give you a hint: FANCY WIGS!

04 The seal is weakening on March's First Advance Chance!
Well, it seems like my recipes are not going over as well as I had hoped. I tried making a tuna melt but not even Mr. Bibbles would touch it. And he loves tuna! But apparently not when it's covered in Limburger cheese and doused with enough hot sauce to potentially cause a fire hazard. I, however, thought it was absolutely delicious—and pungent! But to cook is to share with others, and it appears that no one wants to eat any of my food. Sigh. Well, at least I can take solace in the fact that all the (potentially noxious) fumes emanating from my kitchen seem to have weakened the seal on this month's Advance Chance!

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the March Advance Chance. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

Now that the seal is weaker it smells even more delicious! I really do wonder what's inside... Well, they'll be available in La Victoire for a little longer, so feel free to pick a few up!

04 Flynn's Plunder now filled with precious items!
Ahoy, Gaians! You would not believe the treasure I just managed to score. So there I was, waiting for a nice looking ship to come along, when suddenly I ran into two familiar faces! I won't say who, specifically, but I'll give you a hint: they're twins, and I'm not exactly their biggest fan. Turns out they were on some sort of galactic road trip? I don't really care. The most important thing is their ship was LOADED with precious cargo, and so I took it upon myself to liberate said cargo from their possession. You know. For the good of Gaia and all that. Can't exactly say they were pleased about it, but doesn't matter now! You snooze, you lose.

And if you're snoozin' then you're definitely going to be missing out, because I've loaded up my Plunder with 100 new items up for bid. Rare items, too! We're talking 2003 and 2004 Monthly Collectibles and envelopes, 2003 and 2004 event items—the works, buddy! Panda Hats, miniwings, slippers. Who knew the twins-who-will-not-be-named were such hoarders, huh? Anyway, they'll be up for bids for the next seven days, so why not check it out and see if anything strikes your fancy?

04 '03 and '04 Recolors back in La Victoire for a limited time!
Nostalgia's a funny thing, isn't it? Seeing the world through sepia-tinted glasses, I suppose? Of course, the past is a great place! I mean, we're doomed to repeat history if we don't know or understand it, right? Everyone says you gotta keep looking towards the future, but sometimes a little trip down memory lane isn't a bad thing, I think. Especially if it's been spruced up! Just like these great '04 and '03 recolors and originals -- it's Gaian history and Gaia's present all rolled up into one fabulous package!

-

That's right! Fabulous recolors are back in La Victoire -- reunited and it feels so good! There's the lovely Ebon Laurels, Pure White Mini Angel Wings, Abyss Mini Angel Wings, Pure White Angelic Scarf, and the Abyss Angel Scarf! But that's not all, as we're also selling the Angelic Scarf, Angelic Mini Wings, and the Golden Laurels in La Victoire as well!

04 All about Animal Achievements!
Hey Gaians! Did you know that our new animal pals came with a bunch of new achievements? It's true! You get a new achievement for changing your base to any of the new ones: wolf, cat, or bear! New achievements means new titles, more points -- lots of fun stuff! But did you know that there's another achievement as well? Any user who purchases an animal item with Gaia Cash gets the coveted "Cool Cat" achievement, with fun titles named after our first items for animals! So if you're looking to be a Tiny Strawberry, or even a King Animal, why not visit La Victoire and see if any of the animal items strike your fancy?

Have a great night, everyone!

05 Aye Aye Bonnie now available in La Victoire!
Ah, the salty tang of the open sea! The piercing shriek of seagulls milling about, looking to steal a french fry or two! The roaring crash of the waves! The sharp shells lying in wait in the sand, just waiting for an innocent foot to stab into! I could wax poetical on it for days, friends. But I won't, because I've actually just run out of stuff to, uh... wax on. So maybe not for days. Minutes. Well, minute. Anyway! I've never really been in the ocean -- what with being a cat and all, and also the fact that I'm much more massive than I look and I sink kind of like a stone tied to a mountain -- but you know, I like to picture it. What's it like, piloting a schooner over the open waters? I guess I'll never know. But I know if I did ever captain a ship, I'd look fabulous doing it. Why? Just see for yourself!

-

Aye Aye Bonnie has all the commanding grace and seafaring fashion a real cap'n needs! Y'know, just like me. Not every sailor needs to be swarthy, I say. It's available now in La Victoire, and will be in the shop until March 8th, 11:59 PM EST! Why not set a course for our shop and pay us a visit?

05 Divinity's Reach is back!
Oh, Gaians. The last few days have just been awful! We repaired our ship and were ready to finally start our galactic road trip properly, but that horrible pirate Flynn ensnared us not fifteen minutes after blasting off! She took all our sparkly possessions, made fun of our beautiful hair, told us we ought to walk the plank—all sorts of mean stuff! She's a real bully. And just because we banished her to the cold reaches of space! You think she'd let go of a grudge by now but I guess not. Either way, she eventually let us go and, well, we've turned back towards Gaia once more to stock up on some new supplies. But she didn't get everything! Haha! We hid our precious Divinity's Reaches safely out of sight. So why not offer them up to Gaians while we get some of our pre-trip shopping done? Selling things helps calm us down, after all, and look at the beautiful prizes you could win!

Divinity's Reach is full of heavenly rewards, from sacks of gold to beautiful, super rare items! You can score up to five million gold, a popular Chance Item, one of a variety of gorgeous backwings, or possibly even a valuable 2003 Monthly Collectible! Not even that dreadful Flynn could steal such loveliness from us! They'll be available until March 5, 11:59 PM EST so drop by La Victoire and help us get back on our feet, if you're feeling generous!

05 Pursue your dream to win an amazing prize in Budding Bistro!
Oh dear. It looks like my escapades in cookery have led to a... very minor disaster. You see, I was searing some hot dogs for my masterful (and quite delicious!) chien-chaud confit when the smoke alarm went off! For no reason! Or, well, if I'm being perfectly honest... Because there was a fire. Just a little one! Nothing serious! I mean, I managed to put it out. But now my kitchen is a bit more charred than I like it, and I can't do any cooking for a while. Sigh. Well, it was fun while it lasted. And of course, I can always live vicariously through this month's delectable Chance Item! With Budding Bistro I can experience what it's like to be a kitchen artisan, even if it means starting from the bottom and clawing my way to the top! Maybe you'll join me? After all, you're sure to earn more than just practical cooking experience! You could win a Cash Shop favorite, a valuable rare item, or even one of these tasty new exclusives:

-

So, do you think you have what it takes? Or will you end up on the chopping block? Perhaps if you're successful you could even give me a lesson or two on proper cooking. I mean, I think I've got a lot of raw talent! I just need to learn how to set things on fire less. Please, give Budding Bistro your best efforts! Or if you really want to how a kitchen works, why not try a bundle of nine? Happy cooking, everyone!

05 Flynn's Booty and Chest are back!
Ahoy, all you Gaian landlubbers! Space Cap'n Flynn here, still flush with booty from those horrid star twins. I've put plenty of it up in my Plunder—which you should definitely check out, if you're interested in bidding on lots of valuable items—but it's also added my store of precious gold! Since I've got so much extra coin, I figure I ought to make some available to the public as well. So I've put Flynn's Booty and Flynn's chest up for sale in La Victoire! In fact, tonight my booty is at a severe discount, as much as 60% off! Each Booty has the chance to contain up to 100 million gold and my Chest contains up to 250 million gold.

06 Project Couture: win gold, items, or an amazing opportunity!
Has anyone here ever talked to Stein before? He's an interesting guy! Apparently he holds contests for Gaians where they can submit their own ideas for items, and then he makes those items and puts them up in his shop! Also, he's a all covered in stitches and parts from different people. So, you know. That's kind of unusual. But he's super nice! And his interest in fashion, particularly couture designed by Gaians, is really fascinating to me. So I figured, why not take a page out of Stein's book? I grabbed some fashion forward items along with some nice sacks of gold -- and an AMAZING something extra -- and tossed them all into this super cute shopping bag, and voila! We've got ourselves the brand new, super exciting Project Couture!

-

With the fabulous Project Couture, you could win up to one billion gold or gorgeous items like Beyond Brown, Shibuya Nobody, or even an Angelic Halo. But that's not all! If you're very lucky, you might win the incredible Golden Ticket! This Golden Ticket allows you the opportunity to partner up with a talented artist from Gaia to design your own unique item set! Once your set is completed it will be sold as a Limited Quantity Item in La Victoire, and you'll receive 25 million gold for each 100 sold! And, if your item sells out completely, you'll get a 100 million gold bonus! Make sure you visit the official Project Couture forums to read all the rules and regulations! So, who here is feeling lucky AND creative? Project Couture is only in the shop until March 8th, 11:59 PM EST so visit La Victoire and remember, Gaians: make it work!

Unfortunately I could only snag a few of these beautifully tailored garments -- they're all hand made, you see, so there's only a limited amount available. You can buy it now in La Victoire, and it will be on sale until March 12th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out! Why not stop by the shop and see if it strikes your fancy at all?

06 Beyond Lavender now available in La Victoire!
Ah, the sweet fragrance of lavender. It's said to be soothing, you know! Helps you sleep. Not that I need any help, since I get my usual sixteen hours of naptime a day without much difficulty. But Cygnus has a little trouble occasionally -- too busy worrying about "our decaying galaxy" or something like that to be able to catch some proper shuteye -- and so sometimes I sneak a little lavender-scented plugin into his room, just to help. He never complains about it, I'll tell you that much! And, you know, I wanna send those lovely, soothing vibes to you Gaians as well. So I took a fabulous item and colored it a sweet shade of purple! Check it out:

-

Beyond Lavender is beyond cute! So comfy and cozy. Makes me wanna curl up in a ball right on top of it and start snoozin'! It'll be available in La Victoire until March 12th, 11:59 PM EST so why not drop by and breathe deep the fragrant air of my lovely shop? Mmm. Smells like flowers and awesomeness.

06 Limited Quantity Item: Exoskeletal Rogue now in La Victoire!
Oh man, guys. We've got something real special for you tonight! Special, and uh... Kind of spooky. In a good way! Like, in a "I'm gonna kick your butt with my awesome skeleton boots" kind of way. Y'see, I was wandering around the market, looking for something new to catch my eye, when I found this crazy looking armor and I just couldn't say no. It didn't look great on me, unfortunately, but I think it's going to look fabulous on you Gaians out there! Check it out:

-

The Exoskeletal Rogue clearly means business, don't you think? Stabby business. We've only got a limited amount, though, because not everyone's got the skills to be an awesome assassin! It's available now in La Victoire, and it'll be on sale until March 12th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out! It might not be the most practical gear for fighting, but you can always bowl over your enemies with your amazing looks!

06 Luxurious Lucie now available in La Victoire!
I've already talked about the fact that I'm not super into horror flicks, but Cygnus just can't seem to get enough of 'em. Just the other day he was watching this super creepy movie where this evil doll comes to life and starts, y'know, doing the normal evil doll stuff. Causing chaos, making faces, brandishing knives -- just being an overall menace. I couldn't sit through it 'cause I was too creeped out, but it did remind me a little of Gaia's own wicked little toy: Lucie! So I got to some coloring and... Voila! A gorgeous (and slightly creepy) new Lucie has arrived!

-

Luxurious Lucie is equal parts decadent, beautiful, and downright terrifying. It's available now in La Victoire, along with Little Lucie, Lovely Lucie, Lamenting Lucie, Lavish Lucie, and Lulling Lucie! We've also got a fabulous bundle called the Luxury Lucie Budle featuring the entire collection, if you're looking to nab them all! They'll be in the shop until March 12th, 11:59 PM EST so why not drop by and play with all of our Lucies?

07 Dreaming of a fabulous prize? Try Dreaming of Sheep!
Do Gaians dream of electric sheep? I don't know! Maybe! I mean, it seems like a kind of strange thing to see in your sleep. But dreams are weird like that! You never know what's going to pop up. I mean, just the other day I was dreaming that I was scratching the largest, softest sofa I had ever laid paws upon, and I didn't realize until after all the yelling woke me up that I was accidentally clawing Cygnus' face. On an unrelated note, he's refused to speak to me for the past three days. But that's the power of the dreamworld, guys! Anything is possible. Man, even just talking about it is making me kind of sleepy. I'm probably gonna lay down soon, since I've only napped for about ten hours today. I wonder what I'll dream about? Maybe some amazing clothes, like these...

Would you like a chance at snagging some of these fabulous items? Then you ought to try Dreaming of Sheep! All you have to do is count your sheep until you doze off, at which point you'll no doubt be whisked away to your very own dream -- but the best part is the reward you'll score at the end! Choose gold and you could win up to one billion gold. Choose items and you might win valuable rares like Stellar Dreams or Lady Lunar! Either way, you're sure to be well-rested and happy when you wake up. Sounds too good to be true, right? Well, it's totally real! Dreaming of Sheep will be in the shop until March 8th, 11:59 PM EST, so make sure you don't sleep too long, or it'll be gone before you know it! Now if you'll excuse me, there's a cuddly, soft pillow on Cygnus' bed practically calling my name...

07 Haimon's Hourglass now available in La Victoire!
If only life were like a Greek tragedy, everyone! Then we'd all be weeping and wailing and committing all sorts of really sordid acts. Actually, it'd be pretty awful, all things considered. People in those plays were generally miserable to one another. Maybe if life were a little more lighthearted? What about a Greek comedy? Y'know, taking some dark and dour and making it... Lighter! Fluffier! Like vanilla frosting!

-

Mmm. Tasty and historical. Haimon's Hourglass is all sorts of creamy Grecian goodness! Why not check it out in La Victoire? It'll be available until March 13th, 11:59 PM EST, so make sure you visit before the sands of time run out on this item!

Any of you Gaians out there lookin' to score some real nice treasures? 'Cause your pal Nicolae has managed to "legitimately" secure a few precious items -- and I'm lookin' to sell them to the highest bidder. Never hurts to have a little extra coin in your pocket, right? Anyway, I've set up a market down at the Gaia Exchange, where you can bid on an Angelic Halo, Easter Egg, or Thank You Letter for June 2003. Or you can just hang out and watch the proceedings.

07 Paws - A New Forum!
Hello Friends!

So glad to see everyone all happy and, dare I say, animaltastic! I cannot even begin to tell you how excited *I* am about all the new talking animals hanging around the forums. Cats, bears and wolves - it's so refreshing! Now I have lots of new animal friends to converse with. I'm still learning how to speak wolf and bear fluently, but I'll master those languages soon enough.

Anyway, I thought it would be super fun to have our own private little animal forum where we talking animals can hang out, chat, and just be ourselves. I've also included a little bonus treat for those talking animal friends who stop by! Check out the Paws Forum to meet other like-minded talking animals! Meow!

Oh yeah, while I love you all, this forum is ONLY for talking animals - no offense to my human friends! Feel free to equip your animal avatar base and join us if you like.

Your Pal,

Rufus

07 EI Report: Adamant Vault and Hardhearted
Friday, Friday, Friday! The most glorious day of the week! It's true, I read it in a magazine. That's right: I do read things besides scientific journals, you know. In fact, I'm thinking of boycotting several science-based publications. Why? They refuse to accept any of my articles! What, they don't think research on the viscosity of syrup and its effects on the topography of waffles is important? I assure you, in today's breakfast-driven culture, that my research has never been more pertinent or relevant. Ah, but I digress. As much as I enjoy experimenting with the best meal of the day, my true love will always be Evolving Items. And we have such a magnificent report to give today! Hardhearted has revealed more gorgeous new items, and Adamant Vault experiences a stunning final evolution!

-

Adamant Vault: At long last, you seem to have reached the pinnacle of of the actress' collection. These remarkable pieces hail from when she was at the peak of her fame and wealth. She would often throw exclusive parties in her own diamond strewn mansion, all but coating herself in the glittering jewels to host them. In a sea of priceless treasures, these are truly the most precious, splendid ones you've discovered. It seems that you have uncovered some flirty diamond eyelashes, a diamond studded gown, an extravagant diamond skin embellishment, a radiant diamond chandelier, and a pair of resplendent diamond wings. The Adamant Vault is now empty of all its beautiful bounty, but now you can carry on the actress' legacy by wearing all her breathtaking jewelry!

Hardhearted: Your fashion sense grows even wilder as you try on new pants and accessories! As you admire your stylish reflection in the mirror, you overhear a DJ on the radio say that your favorite band is holding a concert in the town you live in. Your heart thuds in your chest with excitement as you realize what you must do. You have to snag tickets for this amazing concert! It's officially your life's greatest priority.

Glorious! Almost as beautiful as syrup sparkling on a pancake. That's all we have for this week, Gaians, but be sure to listen in next Friday for another amazing Evolving Item report! Make sure you vote in our Weekly EI Poll to let us know what you think, and don't forget that you can see all these gorgeous EIs and more in La Victoire. See you next Friday, science lovers!

08 Ready to win some fabulous hairstyles? Time to Do or Dye!
Okay, so you guys know how that gal Vanessa accidentally created all those super cool -- but admittedly possibly mutated -- wigs? Well, I went ahead and visited her shop out of curiosity, and also because my pretty fur was in need of a little trim, when I found it she still had more wigs that she'd acquired from Dr. Singh's labs! You know I had to see this stuff in action, guys. So I asked her to trim a few more, and sure enough the clippings all melded together and voila: new gorgeous hairstyles abound! It's both freaky and fabulous at the same time, I think. I mean, look at all the fancy new hairstyles we've got!

-

Anyway, I brought 'em all back here to La Victoire and stuffed 'em into a big box. Y'know, with the utmost care, obviously. Would you like to try one on? Then check out a Do or Dye! You're sure to win a totally fabulous new hairstyle that could totally change your entire look! Just drop by the shop -- we've got tons of 'em, so they're going to be in for a while.

08 Project Couture leaves La Victoire soon!
Hey, everyone! How are you all doing? Feelin' a little more fashionable, I hope? I'm certainly feeling pretty haute couture at present. Did you notice? I'm wearing the epitome of style and fashion! Here, let me turn around so you can see better. See the paper taped to my back? The one that reads "KICK ME"? Isn't it just the most stylish thing ever? Aren't you jealous? Cygnus told me all the fashionable Gaians wear signs like these. He said he picked this up at a very expensive shop just for me! Although, weirdly enough, it does kind of look like his handwriting... Either way, I think I'm lookin' sharp! And if you wanna bump up your style a little as well, why not check out Project Couture? It's filled with fabulously fashion forward items like these!

With the fabulous Project Couture, you could win up to one billion gold or gorgeous items like Beyond Brown, Shibuya Nobody, or even an Angelic Halo. But that's not all! If you're very lucky, you might win the incredible Golden Ticket! This Golden Ticket allows you the opportunity to partner up with a talented artist from Gaia to design your own unique item set! Once your set is completed it will be sold as a Limited Quantity Item in La Victoire, and you'll receive 25 million gold for each 100 sold! And, if your item sells out completely, you'll get a 100 million gold bonus! Make sure you visit the official Project Couture forums to read all the rules and regulations! Pretty exciting, right? Just remember that Project Couture leaves the shop March 8th, 11:59 PM EST! Now, I gotta head out into town and strut my new, amazing look. Cygnus agreed to watch the shop while I'm gone. He even smiled a little! What a nice guy!

08 Limited Quantity Item: Jovial Belle in La Victoire!
Is your adorableness atrophied? Are you craving cuteness? Have a desperate yen to be an absolute darling? Don't worry, friends! I've got just what you guys need. You see, I've scrounged up a fabulous new recolor of an item that's sure to fill that empty void in your life with sugary sweetness. So prepare to squeal with glee, Gaians, as you feast your eyes on this charming new set!

-

The lovely Jovial Belle really is the icing on the metaphorical cake! Decked out in baby blues and eye-catching silver, this outfit is sure to ring a few bells! It's available now in La Victoire, and will be on sale until March 12th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out! Why not visit La Victoire and try it on? Guaranteed to give you a sugar high!

08 Dreaming of Sheep leaves La Victoire soon!
Sigh. Alas, Gaians -- even the sweetest dreams must eventually come to an end. Dreaming of Sheep will be leaving La Victoire soon, which means that the opportunity to win beautiful items like these could be nothing more than a faded memory!

Dreaming of Sheep gives you the chance to potentially win the item of your dreams! All you have to do is count your sheep until you doze off, at which point you'll no doubt be whisked away to your very own dreamland -- but the best part is the reward you'll score at the end! Choose gold and you could win up to one billion gold. Choose items and you might win valuable rares like Stellar Dreams or Lady Lunar! It'll be in the shop until March 8th, 11:59 PM EST at which point, sadly, we will all awaken from this blessed reverie! Man, talking about dreams really makes me get all poetical like. Who woulda thought? Anyway, hope to see you around La Victoire soon!

08 Pride of Hubris now available in La Victoire!
Y'know, they say hubris is the folly of man. Or at least, I think that's what they say. Who is "they" anyway? Look, the point is I said it, and that should make it an important enough quote, okay? But look, having pride in your appearance isn't a bad thing! Particularly when you look as good as I do. Now, I know it's hard to deal with the fact that you will never sparkle and shine the way my lustrous fur does, but that doesn't mean you can't become a very close second to my fabulousness! Take this gorgeous new recolor, for example. It's amazing enough to make anyone instantly stylish!

-

I don't think it's my ego talking when I say this set is totally swank. Pride of Hubris is all class and sass, with absolutely no comeuppance at all! Like me! That's right. Because if there's one thing I learned from that picture book of Greek mythology that I read the other day, it's that being overly proud of yourself never ever leads to any consequences whatsoever! Like that Icarus guy. He totally had the right idea! Actually, I probably oughta finish that chapter. I can't wait to read the part where he totally escapes and everything is perfect. Anyway! This will be in the shop until March 10th, 11:59 PM EST so why not visit La Victoire and do a little preening?

08 New animal items in Buttercup Cafe!
Oh. My. God. Please tell me everyone else sees the adorable little animals walking around and that I'm not going crazy. It's almost too cute to stand! I'm pretty sure I had a dream exactly like this, where there were fuzzy little friends EVERYWHERE, and we would have tea parties and lots of cake and cookies and I got to dress them all up in little outfits and ohmigosh ohmigosh ohmigosh. I've never been so excited in my life! Of course, I wanted to make sure all of our furry new Gaians feel welcome in my shop, so I've been baking up a storm! Sure, I had to order some really itty-bitty spatulas and muffin pans, but I've made a ton of food perfectly sized to fit into tiny animal paws! Oh, and I also picked special little flowers and I've made some fun new accessories for animals as well! Look, some critters are already enjoying all of my yummy treats and fun accessories!

-

Just looking at them is giving me a sugar high! I just... I've never seen anything so huggable in my entire life. If you're a hungry kitty, wolf, or bear looking to satisfy a sweet craving, please drop by Buttercup Cafe! I promise not to squeeze you too hard or squeal too loudly in your ear.

08 Dreaming of Sheep sale extended by three hours!
Amazing news, guys! So, there I was enjoying my latest nap in the storage room, snoozin' away on a nondescript pile of whatsits. But guess what happened when I woke up? I realized I was sleeping on a bunch of Dreaming of Sheeps! Crazy, right? Where did they come from? It's kind of spooky, really. But it's also a dream come true! That means I've got a few more to sell, and so I can extend the sale a few extra hours! So there's still an opportunity for Gaians to win gorgeous prizes like these:

Dreaming of Sheep gives you the chance to potentially win the item of your dreams!

09 Limited Quantity Item: Braided Fawn and Braided Noir!
Oww... Darnit! Sorry guys, I'm all sore. I was inspired by the latest items that we got in the shop and I spent all day attempting to braid my fur. As you can see, I didn't exactly meet with much success. Turns out my fur is just a hair too short to actually braid -- a fact that Cygnus neglected to tell me as he yanked on my poor coat in an "attempt" to plait it! I tell ya, he's a lot sneakier than he looks. Anyway, even if I can't make my fur into fashionable braids, it doesn't mean that you can't enjoy the luxury of a gorgeous plait or three! Just see what we've got in store for you guys...

-

Braided Fawn and Braided Noir are full of gorgeous hairstyles for even the most luxurious of hair. And the best part is there's no tugging or pain! Just straight up fabulousness. Sigh. I'm so envious. My fur is absolutely stellar, but sometimes I wish I could style it a little! Ah, well. They'll be in the shop until March 15th, 11:59 PM EST or until they sell out, so why not unleash your inner Rapunzel and try them on?

09 Be fashionably tasteful with new Wafer Bundles!
YAY! Turns out Rina baked a bunch of yummy treats for all us adorable animals, and she brought some of the extras to La Victoire! I've been munchin' all day and I'm still not full. So much deliciousness... Even Cygnus tried a few things and he hates sweets! Well, admittedly, he hates everything. But still! As I was gnawing my way through another tray of cookies, I was struck by a sudden idea: why not share all this deliciousness with other Gaians? So, inspired by the very treats I was stuffing into my face, I made a few tasty bundles for Gaians to enjoy! Prepare to have your mouth start watering, 'cause I even arranged a little photoshoot of 'em!

-

We've got a few different bundles to choose from, depending on your flavor preference! There's the Vanilla Wafer Bundle full of old-fashioned sweetness, the Chocolate Wafer Bundle for anyone looking to be decadently rich, and the Strawberry Wafer Bundle bursting with fruity goodness! We've also have the Wafer Surprise, which could include any of the delicious treats listed above, or possibly the super rare Neapolitan Wafer Bundle filled with delectable goodies! These bundles will be in La Victoire until March 11th, 11:59 PM EST, so why not drop by and indulge in some yumminess?

But don't assume that I have stars in my eyes on account of my talent! After all, it takes hard work to be this good. My skill sure pays off though! I mean, just take a look at this adorable new recolor I've conjured up for you guys to enjoy.

09 Divinity's Reach is back!
We finally did it, everyone! We managed to actually take a little trip around the galaxy! Sure, there were some obstacles along the way: catastrophic engine failure, purple-haired pirates with ridiculous grudges, a few wrong turns here and there... But at long last, our tour is over! We're circling our way back home now, but our spaceship is so loaded down with souvenirs from the rest of our trip that we need to make some extra room before we go home! That means that we're looking to free up a little space by offering the fabulous Divinity's Reach to lovely Gaians like you!

Divinity's Reach is full of heavenly rewards, from sacks of gold to beautiful, super rare items! You can score up to five million gold, a popular Chance Item, one of a variety of gorgeous backwings, or possibly even a valuable 2003 Monthly Collectible! It's even more exciting than a Bomburgonian Wamflange! Of which we bought forty. They're just so cute we couldn't resist! Divinity's Reach will only be in La Victoire until March 9, 11:59 PM EST, at which point we simply must get home before things get too crazy without us. We did so enjoy our detours here on Gaia, though! Please come visit us before we head out again!

10 Limited Quantity Item: Asshi's Norigae now in La Victoire!
So I ended up in a strange part of town the other day, Gaians. Everywhere I looked there was a guy in a blazer and sunglasses hopping around doing a weird kind of horsey dance. Actually, it was kind of awesome. And there was all this great food, and fun music -- I tell ya, it might have been totally different from what I'm used to, but I really loved it! And man, the clothes! So many nice things. But there was one item in particular that caught my eye, and so I decided to bring back as much as I could carry to offer up to Gaians lookin' to add some color to their wardrobes. Take a look!

-

Asshi's Norigae is so bright and cheerful that it's sure to put a smile on your face! Or make you yell at people's butts. I saw some of that too. It was kind of great. Anyway, this super cute item will be in La Victoire until March 16th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out! Why not visit La Victoire and see how it looks on you?

10 Shake the dice, win a prize! It's Dice Roll!
Hello, Gaians! I've been die-ing to talk to you about this awesome new game I've discovered! Heh. Sorry, I've been working on that pun for the last eight hours and it feels pretty good to finally use that joke. Anyway, what I propose is a game of chance! I've got these nice little dice right here, you see. No, no -- not the fuzzy ones hanging over the doorway. Those are way more decorative than they are functional, believe me. Anyway, these normal dice are the ones you play with! All you gotta do is give 'em a toss and... voila! You win a prize! It might even be a fabulous treasure like the ones you see here...

With Dice Roll it's simple to win tons of gold or a great item! Just toss the dice and see what you win.

If you win gold you've got a chance to roll again and double your winnings. Of course, if you lose your roll, you lose half your winnings -- but if you're not gonna play a little risky, why play at all?

What happens when you take a star kitten's two favorite foods -- milk and chocolate, of course -- and mash 'em together? Why, pure magic! Not only is milk chocolate oh so delicious, but it's totally fashionable to boot. It's hard to improve on what's already perfect, obviously, but if I were to dip myself in pure milk chocolate you just know I'd be looking both appetizing AND super stylish. And I bet the same principle applies to you Gaians too! I mean, just lookit how snazzy milk chocolate can be...

-

Yummy. Milk Chocolate is now available in La Victoire, along with the equally delicious Dark Chocolate and Bitter Sweets. There's also the totally gourmet Chocolate Blend Bundle if you're looking to chow down on the entire collection! They'll be in the shop until March 17th, 11:59 PM EST so why not treat yourself to a little something sweet?

11 Confined Warlock and Devilish Wings now in La Victoire!
Well, wouldja look at that! Seems like we've got another shipment from P.U.G. in today. I wonder what he's sent us? Better not be chewed up bones, again -- it wasn't funny the first time, and it was downright creepy the fifth time. Why does he keep doing that? Some sort of... gesture? I don't know. I can't figure out dogs, guys, their brains are just so inferior to my own special kitten brain that it just isn't worth the effort. But hopefully this time it's something good! Just gotta rip off the tape and see what's inside... Oooh! It's two goodies this time!

-

Confined Warlock and Devilish Wings are now both available in La Victoire! Ain't that exciting? I know Cygnus is just gonna go bonkers over that purple. Why not drop by the shop and try it on for yourself? I bet you're gonna totally love it!

11 Flynn's Plunder updated with tons of beautiful wings!
Bask in my glory, Gaians, for I have been really upping piracy game lately! What can I say? I just seem to have rediscovered my passion for pillaging. I've never felt more alive! Why, just the other day I caught a transport ship loaded with trade goods from the planet Levionaton! What's their primary export? Wings! Tons and tons of pretty wings! Feathery ones, leathery ones, the works! Time for a little profiteering, I think. I've put all these gorgeous wings up for bids in my amazing plunder! We've got Daniel's Wings, Beelzebub's Wings, Archangel's Wings, Lucifer's Wings—plus tons more!

11 Gaia Online Company Update
Hello Gaians,

It's time for another update! A lot has been going on so let's get right to it:

Jet, Cygnus, and P.U.G. have been awfully busy these past few weeks, but here are a few highlights!


 * Project Couture! This gave several Gaians the opportunity of a lifetime to work with one of Gaia's artists to create their dream item! These fabulous Gaian created fashions will soon be arriving in a store near you!


 * Teddy March! This rare limited quantity item sold out very shortly after its first debut. It was soon followed by Kitty March, Pandy March, and Bunny March, all of which were also smash hits! But the parade isn’t over yet. You never know what adorable face will be featured next atop a balloon...


 * New beautiful backwings! There are new backwings in La Victoire available in an array of cute colors. There are also a few wings in smaller sizes for animals too!

Wow! It's certainly been exciting to say the least—but they're not the only ones creating a buzz. It seems like Flynn, Nicolae and Loyal have also been quite busy...


 * After a few successful excursions into piracy, Flynn's back with a fully loaded Flynn's Plunder! Stop by for weekly updates and your chance to get your hands on some of the most rare and valuable items on Gaia! Word is she's already amassed over 8 billion gold in sales ....oh my!


 * Did someone say... black market? Just don't talk about it too loudly! Word on the street is Nicolae is looking for discerning buyers for his acquired donated goods. If you see him, Leon may want to speak with you. Anonymous sources say Nicolae is running an operation worth 9 billion gold! And he's still accepting bids on all his valuable items, so who knows how much he might end up making?


 * Loyal has tons of new mini wings in Dernier Cri! Be sure to stop by and check them out. He even made some for our new animal friends!

We obviously have lots of exciting new items, but how about projects? We recently released Animal Bases. If you haven't already tried it out, you absolutely should! You have the option of being a cat, a wolf, or a cuddly bear—and that's only the beginning! Prepare to see a lot more animal items coming out soon in Monthly Collectibles, Chance Items, and Gold Shops! We've even received word that a new adorable and mischievous animal fur will be debuting this week. Rina’s shop is now catering to animals as well!

http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/community-announcements/new-adorable-animal-avatars-have-arrived-on-gaia/t.90630373/ http://w.cdn.gaiaonline.com/mfs/index/adminupload/e9f7b73ff6ef.gif

Now, how about them events? A special thanks to everyone who attended our Valentine's/Gaiaversary event! Eleven years is a long time and it's thanks to all of you. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, everyone, for making each year absolutely amazing!

Are you a sleuth? Hopefully you participated in our Sherlock mini-event on Feb 21st! To those who did—well done solving the clues and finding the hidden item!

Here are some hints to events coming down the road...


 * Odanodan has been spotted lurking about lately—we suspect he's about ready to make his annual appearance. Keep your eyes peeled on March 17 and see if you can spot him! Maybe you'll be able to snag a treat from him as well!


 * Everyone's favorite Ringmaster stopped by last night and left us some sketches, recolor designs, and a whole bunch of confetti. How he managed to sneak into our office is a mystery to us, but we know better than to question his magic. We can't say exactly what Loyal has planned, but he left a cryptic note saying "It rolls into town very soon..." Might want to keep your eyes peeled over the next few weeks—let us know if you spot anything!


 * Tax Day is coming, and Ivan is looking even more churlish than normal. We're not sure what he is on about, but he's been working all sorts of long, crazy hours and mumbling to himself about serious back taxes being owed.


 * Spring is almost here and you know what that means: sunshine, bunnies and rainbows hidden treats! Stay tuned for a fun and festive Easter event that'll have you shopping about looking around for hidden rewards!

That's it for now, stay tuned for more updates in the future! Have a great day, everyone!

11 Get a head start on March's second CI with Advance Chance!
Gracious, Gaians! I've been practicing my ukelele pretty regularly for nearly a month now, and you know what? I think I've gotten quite good! Look, I can play "Twinkle Twinkle" fairly well. Here, hang on—just gotta tune the darn thing and—Ack! No! A string snapped! This is heartbreaking news, Gaians! Wherever shall I find my musical inspiration now? How will I be a world-renowned concert ukelele player if my instrument of choice is broken? Oh, I can see it now. All those symphonies and orchestras of ukelele players, smug in their fully attached strings, playing beautiful ukelele concertos and mocking me with their ability to pluck more than two chords! All right, well, I simply must fix this. You'll have to excuse me for a while! In the meantime, however, why not check out this month's second Advance Chance? It's only just arrived!

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the March Advance Chance II. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

Perhaps it has some new strings for my poor, poor ukelele... I knew I should've stuck with piano! My parents did always say I had such long, elegant fingers for an accountant... Or perhaps I ought to return to my passion for writing and try my hand at composing? Ah, well. I'll figure it out! In the meantime, feel free to pick up March's Advance Chance in La Victoire.

11 Dice Roll sale extended an extra three hours!
Oh boy, Gaians. It's your lucky day! Why? Because my triumph is your gain, friends! I've finally managed to overcome my sharply honed hunter instincts, and I no longer feel compelled to bat around dice as if it were a delicious mouse! I can now roll them bones with the best of 'em. Of course, it wouldn't be fair for me to be able to play just as the sale ends... So I've extended it an extra three hours! That means you've got extra time to try your hand at Dice Roll and win some amazing prizes, just like the ones pictured here!

With Dice Roll it's simple to win tons of gold or a great item! Just toss the dice and see what you win. You might score a valuable rare items like The Forest Fawns and an Angelic Halo, or up to 100 million gold! Oh, and the best part? If you win gold you've got a chance to roll again and double your winnings. Of course, if you lose your roll, you lose half your winnings. Dice Roll will now be leaving the shop on March 12th, 2:59 AM EST so why not toss a few around and see what you win?

12 Serenity's Rose now available in La Victoire!
Would a rose by any other name smell as sweet? I guess, hypothetically speaking, it probably would! Unless you got some special kind of rose that smelled like day old garbage, or P.U.G's breath. Then it'd probably smell pretty awful, even if you gave it a totally awesome name. But any of you guys ever wonder how a serene rose might smell? No? Because roses don't have emotional states? Well, fair enough! But maybe you've thought about what a serene rose might look like. Aha! Good, 'cause I'm here to show you just that!

-

Serenity's Rose is a lovely, soothing blue that'll no doubt make you feel completely at ease! And while it might not have you evaporate into a bunch of lovely fireflies, these beautiful butterflies will no doubt suffice! It's available now in La Victoire, along with the exquisite Spirit's Rose Bundle with the entire colorful collection! They'll be in the shop until March 18th, 11:59 PM EST, so you've got plenty of time to mosey on down to La Victoire, two by two, with your hands of blue. Hope you find your serenity, Gaians!

12 Dreaming of Sheep back in La Victoire!
All right, guys. I'm officially going for a record here. Today is the day I nap not just sixteen hours, not just seventeen hours, not just eighteen hours, but a FULL twenty hours! People said it couldn't be done. Cygnus called it "appallingly lazy". But I'll show them! I'll show them all! I'll nap so hard and when I'm done everyone will be amazed by my dedication and ability to sleep through pretty much anything! After all, Gaians, sometimes you just gotta dream big. Better start counting my sheep now! Maybe I'll even dream of a few? I know I'll certainly be dreaming about gorgeous items like these...

Would you like a chance at snagging some of these fabulous items? Then you ought to try Dreaming of Sheep! All you have to do is count your sheep until you doze off, at which point you'll no doubt be whisked away to your very own dream -- but the best part is the reward you'll score at the end! Choose gold and you could win up to one billion gold. No need to pinch yourself! I know it seems too good to be true, but I promise it totally is. It'll be in the shop until March 13th, 2:59 AM EST, around which I'm time expecting to wake up so that I can carboload and then resume napping. Sweet dreams, everyone!

12 Terre Reverie now available in La Victoire!
Ah, the circus life! It must be really exciting, you know? There are tents! Acrobats! Incredible feats! 'Course, it's also got clowns... Which I'm less than okay with, honestly. Don't trust clowns. They just seem kinda shady, you know? Anyone could be behind that makeup. Anyone. Could be me. Could be Cygnus. Could be you! Either way, I like the circus 'cept for the clowns. I do make an exception for one special gal, though: Babette! We all remember the story of her lovely journey in Volant Reverie, right? Well, prepare to relive all the magic and wonder, as she's back with a brand new recolor sure to astound and amaze!

12 Summer Daisy now available in La Victoire!
Y'know, guys, I know we've only just arrived on the cusp of spring here on Gaia, but I just can't help but long for the halcyon days of summer. Warm sun beating down on my lustrous fur, the humidity climbing to unbearable percentages, melty cherry popsicles and guys in vans selling ice cream... What could be better? Yeah, I definitely have a yen for the summers of yore! Alas, we've still got the tail end of winter and spring to slog through, but that doesn't mean I can't celebrate the season a little early! With that in mind, I present to you our latest recolor!

-

Summer Daisy is all bright and cheerful, just like the flower (and season) it's named after! If you're looking for an adorable outfit to make you feel fresh as a daisy it's truly the perfect look. It'll be in the shop until March 18th, 11:59 PM EST so why not drop by and impatiently wait for summer with me? I could use a companion or two!

12 It's a Bundle Bonanza in La Victoire!
Man, we've had some really amazing bundles lately, haven't we? But here's the problem. We've still got them. There are, like, a bajillion of 'em just sitting in our storage room, taking up more space than I think we can afford! You know what they say: out with the old, in with the new! Time to clear some of these babies out! I'll miss 'em, of course -- I mean, they're top quality. But Cygnus is always complaining that our inventory is super disorganized, so I figure now is as good a time as any to clean house! Here's a list of all the bundles we'll be offering tonight:


 * • Herbalist Shop Bundle
 * • Rapturous Couple Bundle
 * • Oodles of Lace Bundle
 * • Princes & Thieves Bundle
 * • Blades of the Sky Bundle
 * • It's a Mad Mad Bundle
 * • Beyond Bundle II

That oughta give me some extra wiggle room! And by "wiggle room" I obviously mean "more space for napping". That just kinda goes without question. This is gonna be a quick sale, though, so they'll be in the shop until March 12th, 11:59 PM EST! Hope to see you around soon!

13 Dice Roll is back in La Victoire!
Hah! Perfect timing, Gaians. I've finally gotten really good at this whole "tossing dice" thing! I mean, look at how far I can throw them! Hang on, back up. No, further back. Further. Fuuurther. Okay, there! Perfect! Now watch as I toss these dice like a pro! ... Hah! They totally landed like, four feet away. That's a really good throw for a cat, you know. ... What do you mean that's now how you place with dice? You toss 'em, right? I'm supposed to look at the numbers? Aw, shoot. I guess I oughta practice some more... Which means I'm gonna put Dice Roll back in the shop so you can practice with me! And who knows? Maybe you'll win a great prize like the ones pictured here!

With Dice Roll it's simple to win tons of gold or a great item! Just toss the dice and see what you win. You might score a valuable rare items like The Forest Fawns and an Angelic Halo, or up to 100 million gold! Oh, and the best part? If you win gold you've got a chance to roll again and double your winnings. Of course, if you lose your roll, you lose half your winnings. Living dangerously is fun, though! Dice Roll will be in the shop until March 13th, 11:59 PM EST so why not visit La Victoire if you wanna toss them around a little? Although not too far, I guess. Since apparently that's not how this works.

13 Cash Shop Update: Winter's Last Call
YAY! Winter is finally almost gone! Man, am I sick of the cold. Seriously! I didn't come all the way from the frigid depths of space to spend my days freezing my poor little tail off, you know? It just ain't fair. Mmm, I can all but feel the warm breeze rustlin' my whiskers; it really seems like we're on the cusp of spring! Of course that means saying goodbye to winter. Not that I'm sure I'll miss it all that much. Still, winter does have a few things going for it... Like this gorgeous new bundle! Let's take a look at the Winter's Call Bundle, shall we?

-

Midnight Conductor: All aboard the last call for the Winter Train Express! This conductor is on the clock and ready to ferry the last snowflakes away to welcome spring.

Fairy Lumi: This luminous fairy is getting ready for her warm springtime slumber, and taking the snow with her on the last call for winter. Includes her frosty hair, flirty eyes, corset, goodbye arm pose, floating legs, and a pair of icy fairy wings.

Available exclusively in the Winter's Last Call Bundle is Polie the Snow Fox! Looks like there's an adorable little stowaway on this train and he's leaving together with the winter snow! Take the little critter with you or chase after Polie as he steals all the sweets from the snack cart!

13 Score some epic loot with Critical Roll!
Jet: Oh awesome! You guys are just in time to watch my totally kickbutt dwarven gunsmith BEARDO THE MAGNIFICENT punch in the teeth of Cygnus' wimpy elven bard! All I gotta do is win this roll and I'm all set. Show me what I need, baby!

Cygnus: Looks like my "wimpy" bard dodges and counters, knocking Beardo unconscious. That's what you get for putting all your character points into strength and nothing else. Idiot.

Jet: What? Noooo... My poor Beardo... Man, I gotta take a break from all this Gauntlets and Goblins, I'm clearly getting way too into it. I think I'm starting to get emotionally attached! And also Cygnus is like one thousand times better at it than I am, even if he's playing some ridiculous lutist with a name I can't even pronounce. Do you guys wanna play too? Just gotta grab some of the dice here and, well, wish for the best! Who knows? Maybe you'll find a treasure chest and win some of this awesome loot!

Critical Roll is easy to play! No need to design a character or assign stats, just toss the dice and see if you win your encounter! You could win items like Blade of the Dawn Sky or Gabriel's Wings, or up to 250 million gold. If you win gold you'll even have the chance to try for a critical hit and double your winnings. Fumbling, however, means you lose half your winnings. So be careful! It's a dangerous fantasy world out there. Critical Roll will be in the shop until March 15th, 11:59 PM EST, so pull up a chair and roll for some initiative! This is gonna get ugly...

13 Ivan's Garage Sale available now in Dernier Cri!
Gaians, I think it's finally time. Time to let go of some old memories. Yes, they may be awful fond, but the fact of the matter is they're taking up way too much space in my apartment and I keep losing Mr. Bibbles in piles of old items that I don't use anymore. So I've gathered up all my old Chance Item commons and scattered them about for any interested Gaians to come and claim! Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Ivan's Garage Sale.

-

I've got all sorts of things for you guys here! Romance Pendants and Solar Hairpins, Argyle Scoodies and Eerie Goods -- plus tons more! They're all old items from Chance Items past that have since been removed from circulation. Real antiques, you know? It's hard to find treasures like these nowadays! It pains me to let them all go, but I'm ready to move on, I think. To bigger and better things! So, if you're interested in trying out something new to find something old and wonderful, come visit my garage sale! I'll be outside Dernier Cri for a while yet.

14 Want a fun, animated tail? Try Attention to De Tails!
I'm sure it goes without saying that every kitten has a certain feature they take the most pride in. Ears, whiskers, adorable little noses and paws... But for me? Well, my badge of honor is my tail. Just take a look at it! But not too closely, mind you, because it's lustrous sheen could probably blind a lesser Gaian. Behold its majestic beauty! Its glossy fur! Its perfect shape! The way I can wiggle it around! I know, I know. I'm fabulous all over, but my tail really is a cut above the rest. And while you can never possess a tail as wonderful as mine, you can sure come pretty darn close! How? By paying Attention to De Tails, of course!

-

Just look at them go! Seriously, I could watch that thing for hours. I probably will, but later! For now I gotta tell you about all these awesome tails we got. Look at how they move! And they're super easy to pick up. All you gotta do is play Attention to De Tails and see which one you get! Who knows? It might just bring out the animal in you! It's going to be in La Victoire for a while yet, so why not visit us soon and see all the great items we've got in stock? Lookin' forward to being tail buddies with you all!

March 14 Nicolae's Black Market is over soon!
Hey. You guys haven't forgotten about my little back alley auction house, have you?

Then make sure you visit my Black Market, currently set up in the Gaia Exchange. Read the rules, make a bid, claim your prize. That simple. Well, simple if you win, anyway. But that ain't my concern. Just remember that bidding ends March 14th, at 3:00 PM EST. Don't forget, all right?

14 Limited Quantity Item: Edebel in La Victoire!
Well, wouldja look at that! And here I was thinking I had seen everything the market had to offer a discerning kitten like me. Y'see, I spend a lot of time wandering around, looking for incredible new fashions that I'm sure Gaians will love. And sometimes I find amazing stuff! And sometimes I don't. Who the heck wants slinky-based couture? That just sounds uncomfortable. But I've just managed to stumble upon an outfit that is not only super stylish AND super cute, but it's also pretty practical to boot! Take a look for yourself -- believe me, you're sure to fall in love.

-

Edebel is fashion forward and functional, all wrapped up with a little bow on top! Literally, see? If you'd like to try it on, why not drop by La Victoire when you've got time? It'll be in the shop until March 20th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. So don't delay! Edebel is most certainly a sight worth seeing. I personally can't take my eyes off of it!

14 Don't forget that you could win big with Critical Roll!
Cygnus: All right, looks like my bard uses his Spell of Greater Healing to revive Beardo. He's no longer unconscious. Also my spell critically heals him for extra HP, and Beardo is imbued with a holy golden light.

Jet: So, what? My dwarf is glowing now? Like a glowstick?

Cygnus: A holy glowstick, sure.

Jet: Great. Fabulous. That'll just make more monsters come and attack Beardo! I mean, I'm assuming he can probably be seen from outer space at this point. Not that Beardo couldn't defeat those monsters! I mean, he's BEARDO THE MAGNIFICENT, he fears nothing, he'll punch his way through solid steel, he'll --

Cygnus: Yeah, I uh. Gotta go do actual work. We'll play again later.

Jet: Aww man! I totally prepared that speech like four hours ago, too. I was really looking forward to using it. Well, you guys will play with me, right? I need to make Beardo more powerful so he can take on that poncy elf Cygnus plays! Help me out and you're sure to score some awesome rewards, too, like the ones pictured here!

Critical Roll is easy to play -- just toss the dice and see if you win your encounter! You could win items like Blade of the Dawn Sky or Gabriel's Wings, or up to 250 million gold. If you win gold you'll even have the chance to try for a critical hit and double your winnings. Fumbling, however, means you lose half your winnings. Just remember that Critical Roll leaves La Victoire on March 15th, 11:59 PM EST! So grab some dice and give 'em a whirl, we're gonna roleplay until the orcs come home!

14 EI Report: Hardhearted and The Cocklebur King
Fabulous Friday is finally here, Gaians! And not a moment to soon. Honestly, the time I spend between these reports seems to drag slower and slower each week! Makes me wish that time machine I spent so much effort on actually worked. Then I could just fast forward to every Friday, give my amazing report, and hop right back in my machine to head straight to the next Friday! In a perfect world, I suppose. Although I guess it might cause some issues with the timeline... Potential time collapses... Unpredictable parallel universes... But I guess that's the price we all have to pay for convenience, right? Well, no matter. The machine isn't up and running -- yet -- and I've got way more exciting things to talk about! We have another evolution from Hardhearted to look over, and a brand new EI! Allow me to introduce the newly discovered The Cocklebur King!

-

Hardhearted: By some incredible miracle, you've managed to score tickets to the concert of your dreams! Time to dress to impress. Determined to go the extra mile, you restyle your hair and buy some brand new clothes! Staring at yourself in the mirror at the end of the day, in all your punkish finery, you can't help but think to yourself: "Damn! I look good."

The Cocklebur King: Once upon a time, a wild beast fell in love with a human man. The beast was a canid, a maneater, the master of the densest and darkest parts of the forests. It hunted without pity on the edges of the paths that passed through the outskirts, dragging its prey into the tangled thickets of underbrush where they would never be found. Until one day it saw him: a human hunter, strong, with fire in his eyes.

So incredible and it's only just day one! A remarkable find, if I do say so myself. That's all the time we have for this week, but be sure to tune in to next week's Evolving Item Report for all your science and dietary needs! Don't forgot to vote in our Weekly EI Poll for your favorite evolutions this week, and remember you can always see these items up close in La Victoire! Have a great weekend, everyone!

15 March's Monthly Collectibles are here! 2014
OH MY GOD GUUUYYYSSS it's our first ever Monthly Collectibles featuring adorable animal items! I can't stand the suspense anymore, I feel like I'm going to explode into a massive pile of glitter! Oh my gawsh it's coming unsealed squeeeee!

March's Monthly Collectibles feature a beautiful and gallant knight, a young and handsome archer, and a tricky raccoon bandit!

Adelpha's Resolve: Fearless in battle, Adelpha is ready to fight for all that she loves and believes in—even if it means being embarrassingly overprotective of her baby brother. Includes a ribbon-decorated tiara, fancy updo hairstyle, warrior's battle cry, metal chestplate, high-waisted skirt, and more!

Achiram's Intent: As quick with an arrow as he is with a quip, Achiram hopes to one day prove he's as strong a warrior as his older sister, and finally earn her respect. Includes his rakish hair, piercing green eyes, fur-lined vest, gold ribbon armband, suspender pants with boots, and more!

Akiva's Dexterity: He may look harmless, but Akiva will cut your purse and make away with the goods before you can so much as blink! Includes the bandit's raccoon fur, gleaming goggles, spiked black bangs, greedy eyes, torn scarf, and more!

These incredible new items are now available at La Victoire!

15 White Laurels now available in La Victoire!
Cygus: Hm. Hello, guys. Feel like it's been a while since we talked. Mostly because I got sick of, you know. Talking. So I had Jet do it for me for a while, 'cause he's better at it. But okay. I think I can manage some now, I guess. I'm still working on my art and stuff and I think it's been going pretty well. Decided to revisit an old Gaian classic and add some of my own flair. Here, see for yourself:

-

I like to think that these White Laurels would only have been handed out to the purest of heroes, you know? Not that ancient Greece had a lot of those. Have you guys ever read any of their mythology? Long story short: everyone is crazy, and everyone gets their comeuppance. At least it's honest. Anyway, they're available now in La Victoire, along with the Ebon Laurels and the original Golden Laurels. There's also a bundle featuring the entire collection, so if you'd like 'em all be sure to pick up a Glorious Laurels Bundle. They'll all be in the shop until March 16th, 11:59 PM EST. And now I'm tired of talking already. Okay, um... Have a good one, I guess.

15 Beware the Ides of March? Not with these fab new bundles!
You know what I don't like? Being told what to do. So when some crazy lady came up to me in the middle of the marketplace the other day howling at me to "beware the Ides of March" or whatever, I take some umbrage. I mean, who the heck does she think she is? More to the point, who does she think I am? Did she take me for an emperor? 'Cause if so that's... That's kind of awesome, admittedly. I mean, I'm still working on amassing my legion of animal followers who will one day declare me their king but... Wow, maybe I shouldn't have been so offended. Also I probably should not have called her stinky. Now I feel kind of bad. Well, anyway! I ain't scared of no ides, and to prove my point I'm having a special sale just to show how unafraid I am! Check it out:

-

Bundles, baby! There's the Bundle of the Gods for any of you gents lookin' to kick it really old school, the Bundle of the Goddesses perfect for showing off your divine beauty, and the Bundle of the Monsters which is full of things that'd no doubt make a hydra scamper away in fear. We've also got the Ides of March Surprise, which could give you any of the bundles listed above or potentially the fabulous Super Toga Party Bundle, filled with items sure to make you feel almost immortal! Just like I do! Because if there is one thing I'm not scared of, it's old ladies making vague threats in public forums. On that note, if anyone wants to stick around and protect me after they finish their shopping... Anyway, these bundles will be in the shop until March 16th, 11:59 PM EST, so drop by and try some of our awesome items on!

15 New 48 pack of Critical Roll now available in La Victoire!
Okay, okay. Hang on. So, apparently, Cygnus' silly lutist elf brat is some sort of lost prince from the ancient kingdom of Ican'tpronouncethenamia, and thus is now super rich on top of being super powerful and also part vampire. How? How is any of this fair? I just... HRNGGHH! BEARDO RAGE! He's so much better than I am at Gauntlets and Goblins and it's just not fair! That's it. I just gotta practice more, you know. Maybe if I chuck a ridiculous amount of dice around I'll magically become luckier with my rolls? Because I'm losing, like, every single one. And if there is one thing I can't take, it's losing at a fantasy game featuring ridiculous characters with rules that seem to be increasingly haphazard and tailored to Cygnus' playstyle! It ain't right! So, okay. With the new Critical Roll (48 Pack) there should be tons of dice available for me to become a real expert at this thing. And win some awesome prizes, too!

Critical Roll is easy to play -- just toss the dice and see if you win your encounter! You could win items like Blade of the Dawn Sky or Gabriel's Wings, or up to 250 million gold. If you win gold you'll even have the chance to try for a critical hit and double your winnings. Fumbling, however, means you lose half your winnings. Which I've done way more times than I feel is appropriate. Just remember that Critical Roll leaves La Victoire on March 15th, 11:59 PM EST. Okay. Deep breaths, Jet. No more losing! I'm here to punch things and drink health potions, and I'm all out of health potions. LET'S DO THIS, BEARDO.

15 Toga Party back in La Victoire!
Anyone else ready for a real party? 'Cause I sure am! Time to wrap some bedsheets around yourself in some sort of tragic approximation of an actual toga, 'cause I think it's time we had a real bacchanal here at La Victoire! Except, you know. Tamer. 'Cause those people got kind of crazy. We do have awesome prizes though, so I guess that's something those revelers of yore never really had! I mean, check out the awesome swag you can pick up from my totally great party:

-

We've got oodles of goodies you could win: anything from the Gift of the Gods, Golden Wings, and even Golden Laurels! So whaddayah say? Ready to rock Mount Olympus to its very core? Then let's do this! Whoo! It's toga time until March 15th, 11:59 PM EST, and we're gonna party like we've never partied before!

15 Critical Roll leaves La Victoire soon!
Hah! Look at that! I totally slayed the heck out of that boar! I'm getting so much better at this it isn't even funny. It doesn't matter that Cygnus is playing a royal vampire elf bard with flowing raven locks and eyes that shine like green glass, good ol' Beardo here is movin' on up in the world! What was that, like... Two extra XP? Awesome. Only 38,00414,002 to go until I level up! I'm making some record time, all right? Just gotta find another boar to punch until it promptly expires and... Wait. What day is it? What time is it? What? Noooo. Nooo! We're that close to our campaign ending? Critical Roll is leaving La Victoire soon? But if I don't level up some more, how can I win rolls on all the fabulous loot we've got available?

Critical Roll is easy to play -- just toss the dice and see if you win your encounter! You could win items like Blade of the Dawn Sky or Gabriel's Wings, or up to 250 million gold. If you win gold you'll even have the chance to try for a critical hit and double your winnings. Fumbling, however, means you lose half your winnings. Man, it's just not fair! Just when I was starting to totally get awesome at Gauntlets and Goblins, too. Sigh. Well, there's still some time to play. You've got until tonight, March 15th, 11:59 PM EST to toss a dice and see what you win! Me, on the other hand? I gotta make sure Beardo is ready to pulverize Cygnus' bard into a perfectly coiffed paste.

16 Dice Roll is back in La Victoire!
"Oh tossin' dice, is so nice! Almost as fun as catching mice! Can't just play, once or twice -- it's time to roll the dice!" Whaddyah think, Gaians? Do I have a future in doing jingles? I think so. But anyway, I'm here to give you some exciting news: Dice Roll is back in La Victoire! That means you've got another chance at scoring some gold or even valuable prizes like these!

16 New Nitemare Recolors available in La Victoire!
Y'know what? Sweet dreams are boring! Me, personally? I prefer a beautiful nightmare. Or, as you Gaians like to say, "nitemare"! Anyway, angels get to prance around and play harps and all that, but I've always been interested in something a little more... devilish. Wicked. Spooky. Creepy! But, y'know, there just wasn't enough color variety out there for an adorable little imp like me. So I decided to rectify that! I've recolored a bunch of classic Nitemare items and made them at least three thousand percent more amazing. Take a look and see for yourself!

-

We've got a wide variety of scarves, miniwings, and pendants in an assortment of different colors for you to enjoy, and so to make things easy I've created a handy list!

16 Last chance to grab Underworld Descent!
Well, it's finally that time, Gaians. I've spent a while finishing my ballad to Underworld Descent, and I think it's finally time for its unveiling.


 * Oh, Orpheus and Eurydice reunited at last
 * But cruel Hades set forward an impossible task
 * To win back Eurydice Orpheus had to walk and walk
 * Eyes straight forward, no turning to gawk
 * And so Orpheus set out, unsure if Eurydice was behind
 * Terrible thoughts constantly dancing through his mind
 * But he escaped the Underworld with Eurydice in tow
 * But that part of the story I'm sure that you know
 * And so I've no more to sing, I will have to relent
 * I hope you've enjoyed the Underworld Descent!

And with that my ascent into rockstardom is truly complete! If you'd like to celebrate with me, why not pick up an Underworld Descent to revisit Orpheus' story one more time? If you're feeling particularly adventurous you could even try out a bundle of nine! Don't forget that you could win a Cash Shop favorite, a valuable rare item, or a totally rockin' new exclusive. Underworld Descent leaves La Victoire March 18th, so be sure to check it out before it disappears!

17 Limited Quantity Item: Bourbon the Alpaca!
Did you guys know there's an alpaca farm just down the road from La Victoire? I had no idea! I've been here over half a year now and no one ever bothered to tell me. How could no one tell me!? I feel so betrayed, guys. I love alpacas. They're fluffy and tall and cute and they make all sorts of ridiculous faces. But I was talking to the owner, and apparently he's got some special alpacas lookin' for a good home or two. And I couldn't think of any better place to live than with Gaians themselves! So I told him I'd take a whole passel of the adorable critters and offer them up to Gaians looking to add that extra special something to their home! Or potentially barn. Let's meet our new friend, shall we?

-

Bourbon the Alpaca is just as happy to be your friend as he is to give you a ride! Wherever you need to go you're sure to get there in style when you're with him.

17 New recolors in Dernier Cri!
Greetings, Gaians. How long has it been since we last spoke? My apologies—I've been very busy setting up my shop, you see. It's close now. Very close. But even with my schedule being an absolute circus, I still manage to find time to indulge in a creative impulse every now and then. Every artist needs an outlet, after all. And so I've created a few new beautiful items, all of them available in Dernier Cri until my shop is officially up and running. My thanks to Brennivin for being such a kind host. Let's get on with the show, shall we?

-

Beautiful, aren't they? A new collection of wings and scarves, the perfect match for any Gaian looking for something whimsical to add their wardrobe. There's quite a few, but I've compiled a handy list for those of you who are interested in my fabulous new works:


 * • Mini Dark Navy Nitemare Wings
 * • Mini Lavender Nitemare Wings
 * • Red Nitemare Scarf
 * • Lavender Nitemare Scarf
 * • Brown Nitemare Scarf
 * • Minty Scarf
 * • Lilac Scarf
 * • Hazel Scarf
 * • Creamy Scarf

Stunning, if I do say so myself. Just wait until you see them at home in my shop! Well, back to the grindstone, I suppose. Keep an eye out for me, Gaians. You just never know when I might pop up...

18 Play Blackjack or Bust to win gold or fabulous prizes!
I learned a new game the other day, Gaians! It's called blackjack, despite the fact that it doesn't involve beating people over the head with a club. Disappointing, I know, but it's still a ton of fun! Basically the idea is you get two cards, and the total of those two cards adds up to a number. The goal of the game is to get the cards to add up to twenty-one! So you can stay, or hit -- so long as you get 21 or under, you're pretty much golden! If you go above, though... Well. You bust. It's so much fun! I've made Cygnus play it with me for the past three hours but eventually he got sick of it and wandered off to take a nap or something. I dunno, I was so focused on the cards I wasn't really paying attention. Hey, would you guys mind stepping in and playing a few rounds with me instead? I promise it'll be worth it! I mean, just look at all the great prizes you could win!

With Blackjack or Bust the game is real simple! You get two cards that add up to a number. Depending on what number you get, you're gonna wanna hit or stay! Staying wins you a moderate amount of gold -- but if you're adventurous like me, that just ain't good enough. You gotta go for that twenty-one! If you hit and score twenty-one or under, you win extra gold! If you bust, however... Well, at least you still win a compensation prize! It could be anything from Heart x Mind to Princess Chimes. Oh, and the gold you could win? Up to one billion, if you're really lucky! So whaddayah say? Play a few rounds with this poor kitten? I'd sure appreciate it! I'm gonna be playing games until March 19th, 11:59 PM EST so I hope to see you real soon!

18 Critical Roll is back in La Victoire!
Jet: Hah! Foolish elf vampire man! BEARDO THE MAGNIFICENT fears not your fiery fireballs of fiery fury! Beardo fears nothing, save baldness! Beardo is brave! Beardo is strong! Beardo is --

Cygnus: Jet. Seriously. Just roll already. You've been at this for like... ten minutes now.

Jet: BEARDO MUST FINISH HIS SPEECH. Dangit, Cygnus, isn't the whole point of this thing to get into our characters?

Cygnus: Yeah, but I'm worried you're getting a little too... Uh. Into it. Like that fake beard you're wearing...

Jet: Hey! This is completely unrelated! I just wanted to try changing my look around a little.

Cygnus: You've started carrying an axe...

Jet: For protection!

Cygnus: Right. Look, maybe we ought to take a break and you can tell the nice people what's in the shop.

Jet: Siiiigghh. Fine. Hello, Gaians! I've got some awesome news straight off the questing board! Looks like Critical Roll is back in La Victoire. You know what that means, don't you? More chances to win fabulous loot like the ones pictured here!

Critical Roll is easy to play -- just toss the dice and see if you win your encounter! You could win items like Blade of the Dawn Sky or Gabriel's Wings, or up to 250 million gold. If you win gold you'll even have the chance to try for a critical hit and double your winnings. Fumbling, however, means you lose half your winnings. Anyway, I gotta get back into the game. Things are really starting to heat up! And I don't just mean the fact that Cygnus' bard can now shoot fireballs out of his eyes. Critical Roll will be in the shop until March 18th, 11:59 PM EST so drop by soon!

Because my shop is full of the feathery, leathery things! I can't get them out of my mind! I mean seriously, have you ever seen so many wings before in your life?

18 Dreaming of Sheep back in La Victoire!
I tell ya, Gaians, I've tried counting a lot of things. Shoes. Bicycles. Freckles. Stars. Cygnus' toes. But nothing seems to work for me! Looks like the only thing that helps me drift off peacefully into dreamland is counting some adorable, fluffy sheep. Oh man. Just thinkin' about it makes me feel a little sleepy... 'Course, it's almost time for my post-breakfast before-brunch midmorning napstravaganza, so that might be why. I'm gonna probably curl up and start counting my wooly, even-toed ungulates soon. Maybe I'll even have a sweet dream about gorgeous items like these...

Have you been dreaming of winning some of these fabulous prizes? It's simple enough to nab 'em! Just try Dreaming of Sheep! All you have to do is count your sheep until you doze off, at which point you'll no doubt be whisked away to your very own dream -- but the best part is the reward you'll score at the end! Choose gold and you could win up to one billion gold. Choose items and you might win valuable rares like Stellar Dreams or Lady Lunar! It's as easy as falling asleep.

18 Blackjack or Bust now available in a 100 pack!
Holy heck, Gaians! So apparently a lot of you wanna play some cards! That's totally fine. I'm down with that. Cygnus is still taking his afternoon angry nap, so I've still got plenty of time to play with you guys! I gotta say, I think I'm getting better at this game. For example, I've learned that it's probably ill-advised to hit on 20! Who woulda thought? I tell ya, the things you learn playing' some cards. Well, I've picked up a ton of extra packs if you guys are interested in playing a little on your own! We're going to be offering amazing Blackjack or Bust Bundle (100 Packs) in La Victoire now, so you'll be able to play a ton! And hopefully score some awesome prizes just like these:

With Blackjack or Bust the game is real simple! You get two cards that add up to a number. Depending on what number you get, you're gonna wanna hit or stay! Staying wins you a moderate amount of gold -- but if you're adventurous like me, that just ain't good enough. You gotta go for that twenty-one! If you hit and score twenty-one or under, you win extra gold! If you bust, however... Well, at least you still win a compensation prize! It could be anything from Heart x Mind to Princess Chimes. Oh, and the gold you could win? Up to one billion, if you're really lucky! This pack and all the other Blackjack or Busts are gonna be in the shop until March 19th, 11:59 PM EST so drop by soon if you'd like to get a few hands in!

18 Limited Quantity Item: Melancholy Belle in La Victoire!
Aww man. This item has me all sorts of conflicted, guys. On one hand it is super duper cute. Like, rot your teeth kind of cute. But the coloring! It's so morbid! Auugh! How am I supposed to feel? Should I be squealing with delight? Or weeping softly in a corner? THIS ITEM IS PRACTICALLY TEARING ME APART. But I'm surprisingly okay with it. 'Cause, admittedly, it looks dang good. I mean, can you honestly get that much more fabulous than this?

-

Melancholy Belle might be a bit of a downer, but it sure is something to look at! It's available now in La Victoire, and will be on the shelves until March 25th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. Why do't you visit La Victoire and help me sort through my various emotions? I kinda hate to ask, but Cygnus is no good at that kind of thing. I think he just assumes everyone should be depressed all the time. Anyway, see you in the shop soon, I hope!

Yo ho, Gaian chums! Did you all enjoy my last plunder of wonderful wings? Well, the fun doesn't stop there, friends!

I'm passing the benefits on to you! My plunder is now fully stocked with precious alchemy ingredients, such as Demon's Tears, Demon Blood, White Body Dye, and Wings Quest Formulas. So what are you waiting for? Go to Flynn's Plunder and bid to your heart's content!

18 The seal is weakening on March's 2nd Advance Chance!
Do you hear that strange hum in the air? I swear, it's not just me, is it? Is my tinnitus coming back? Oh, bother. Just when I thought I had finally adjusted to it. But I really don't think it's only me hearing things. Mr. Bibbles has been acting very strangely, for one. He's been yowling at odd hours, as if trying to match the pitch of the note I keep hearing! Also he keeps walking into walls. I'm starting to get a little concerned about him. But now he's just plunked himself down by the Advance Chance, mewing and cooing at it as if he expects it to burst open at any moment! And I do have to say, that seal does look weaker than it did yesterday...

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the March Advance Chance II. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

How exciting! I'm so ecstatic I might burst into song! Our lovely little Advance Chance will remain in the shop for a while yet, so why not visit La Victoire and see if you can puzzle out the strange noise I'm hearing? Well. Hopefully that we're hearing.

19 Attend a dream performance and bring back a fabulous prize!
Hah! I've finally managed to restring my ukelele and am now able to return to practicing my little ditty from earlier. What was I playing again? Twinkle Twinkle? Mary Had a Little Lamb? Hot Cross Buns? I have so many songs already in my repertoire, you see. I'm really quite the young talent! But, alas, even my masterful fingers can't quite take on the more classical ukelele pieces. Did you know Bach wrote extensively for the instrument? And that Handel called it "the miniature, silly guitar of the gods"? Truer facts have never been spoken! Still, I can certainly work my way up to that point. I mean, no one appreciates an orchestra or symphony more than I do! Particularly if it's got a ukelele in it. Ah, but perhaps you haven't learned to appreciate classical music? Well then, you really ought to attend Rising Concerto! Who knows? You might just walk away with a greater love for music! Or perhaps you'll win a Cash Shop favorite, a valuable rare item, or a beautiful new exclusive:

-

Such beauty all but inspires me to play! I'm going to be over here, plucking away at my instrument of choice, but I do hope you choose to attend Rising Concerto. Don't forget you can always go for an encore performance with our fabulous bundle of nine! Enjoy the show, everyone!

Let's Start the Show!

19 Dice Roll is back in La Victoire!
All right, I'm fed up with Cygnus always hoggin' the spotlight in Gauntlets and Goblins. Time to go back to the basics! Good old Dice Roll -- we had some awesome times, didn't we? Like when I couldn't stop myself from batting you around? Or like when I "accidentally" swallowed two dice? Such fond memories. Truly, it was a golden age. I see no reason not to revisit such happy times, right? So let's bring Dice Roll back to La Victoire! I mean, who wouldn't want to win amazing prizes like these:

20 Cash Shop Update: Guardians of the Damned Bundle!
So I guess I've been paying a lot of attention to all this high fantasy stuff lately, on account of spending so much time with Cygnus, but do you know what I really like? Urban fantasy! Y'know: a mixture of modern and magic, with bits of the supernatural just sort of creepin'' its way into normal life. That's what really excites me! So Cygnus can keep all his elves and his dwarves and his twenty-sided die -- I'm gonna go back to what I love. Which just so happens to be makin' awesome bundles for you guys! Inspired by the whole "urban fantasy" thing, I've created some amazing new items that I really think exemplify the theme...

-

Hell's Mistress: A fierce demonic witch hellbent on getting exactly what she wants. Anyone who stands in her way will no doubt feel the brunt of her incredible arcane powers. Includes her triple horns, violet windswept hair, studded jacket, blouse, torn leggings, short skirt, and accessories.

Unholy Exorcist: A cursed man determined to cleanse the world of the demons that haunt his dreams. Does he really want to purify the world of its demonic infestation, or is this secretly an act of vengeance? Includes his flaming hair, red hoodie, pristine shirt, tattered jeans, sneakers, flaming tail, and flaming gauntlet, ready to fight at a moment's notice.

Available exclusively in the Guardians of the Damned Bundle is the Grimm Lolita! The remains of a dearly loved one, once cherished greatly by her family and stolen away by a grim twist of fate... Includes a standing coffin, arms at rest, frilled shirt, babydoll shoes, bow bustle, and her white, skeletal remains.

Way cooler than a dude with a wooden stick or a lute whapping you over the head, right? These guys are just wicked awesome! You really oughta stop by La Victoire and check it out. This bundle is gonna be in the shop for a while yet, so you've got plenty of time to drop by and try on these fabulous outfits!

20 Limited Quantity Item: Amethyst Snippet in La Victoire!
Cygnus: Hello, everyone. Well, it's time for another purple recolor, courtesy of yours truly. Why? Because, y'know. Purple is the best. Everyone looks better with a little purple added. And a lot of purple? You can't beat that kind of thing, really. So, in the interest of trying to make everyone look as amazing as possible, I've taken my brush to another popular Gaia item and colored it to suit my needs. Which involve lots of purple. Okay, uh -- let's just take a look, you can see what I mean.

-

Pretty awesome, right? I'm telling you, it's incredible what a pinch of purple can do. Amethyst Snippet pretty much has everything. So, y'know... Stop by the shop if you wanna try it on and feel more regal and stuff. It'll be in the shop until March 26th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out, so I guess I'll be seeing you soon. Or whatever. Okay, cool. Glad I could help spread the Word of Purple today.

20 Limited Quantity Item: Rakish Raptor in La Victoire!
I heard about the coolest thing today! You guys ever learn anything about falconry? Basically you train a totally awesome bird to be your best friend and do your bidding. Or, you know, something like that. Admittedly I only kind of skimmed the article. But man, that sounds cool! What if I could train a falcon to take orders from me? I wonder what I'd make it do. ... Probably nick candy from Cygnus' room, if I had to take a guess. Or at least distract the big lug while I do it myself. Sigh... A kitten can dream, I suppose. I'm not sure that falconry is right for me, alas, but I think it'd be perfect for some Gaians! Which is why I went ahead and found this great item perfect for you elegant falconers out there! Check it out:

-

Rakish Raptor is all class, but with that amazing falcon at his command I'm guessing you probably don't wanna piss him off!

21 Win some great items or gold with Loaded Dice!
All right, I'm kind of fed up with losing these days. I can't take it any more! I mean, aren't I amazing? Don't I deserve to win? I totally do. So then why can't I seem to have any luck when rolling dice? It's driving me nuts! Someone as wonderful as I am deserves to have all the luck ever, I think. It's not right! But, y'know, I've taken some steps to... correct this horrible cosmic wrong. I found myself a special pair of dice that, no matter what I do, always seems to have the perfect outcome for me. And the best part? I think it'd be great for you guys too. Especially if you're interested in fantastic prizes like these!

Loaded Dice is a lot like my old pal Dice Roll, but with a little twist! After you toss the dice and get your winning roll, you get to choose whether you want items or gold. You could win up to one billion gold or gorgeous items like Flatline Love or Astra-182: Whipping Black Devil Tail! Pretty sweet, right? Oh, and if you win gold, you'll have the chance to roll again to double your prize! 'Course not even my loaded dice can be perfect all the time, so if you lose your roll that means you lose half your winnings... Loaded Dice will be in the shop until March 22nd, 11:59 PM EST, so why not stop by La Victoire and give my new "game" a whirl?

21 Jekyll's Ethics now available in La Victoire!
Y'know, I like to consider myself the Hyde to Cygnus' Jekyll. I see myself pretty realistically, after all. Why do I think that? Because I'm the more awesome of the two of us, of course. Isn't that what the story was about? I haven't actually read it. But Hyde seems like the kinda guy you could invite to a fun party, whereas Jekyll is probably too cooped up in his room moping about the "end of the universe" and ridiculous stuff like that and -- well, okay. Maybe I'm projecting a little. Maybe Jekyll isn't that bad. I mean, he does have some pretty amazing taste in clothes. And now they're available in an all new color, courtesy of my magic and totally awesome paintbrush! Check it out:

-

Jekyll's Ethics is so totally awesome that it might be a little immoral. Then again it's his ethics, and not mine! And I say there's nothing immoral about being amazing. I mean, look at me! Anyway, it's available now in La Victoire if you'd like to try it on. Or, if you're interested in nabbing 'em all, you should check out Jekyll's Collection which contains the whole creepy, colorful ensemble! They'll both be in the shop until March 24th, 11:59 PM EST, so feel free to drop by and chat about ethics with me! Or maybe loan me a copy of Jekyll and Hyde. I'm guessing I probably oughta read that eventually.

21 EI Report: The Cocklebur King and Hardhearted!
Oh, frabjuous Friday! Friday is very... nice! I like Fridays! And also lots of ice! ... Oh, sorry, Gaians! I didn't see you there. I was just reciting my latest poem out loud. You see, I enrolled in a creative writing class and I'm finding it to be a bit of a challenge. Why did I enroll? Well, I can't be obsessed with science all the time! I'm trying to expand my horizons. Find a new hobby! Now, if only I had picked one that I'm actually good at. Well, I've certainly got just the thing to cheer me up! We've got some brand new evolutions to look at today and I simply couldn't be more elated! The elephant was sedated! ... I'm not good at being creative. Oh hey! That last part sort of rhymed too. Maybe I'm better than I thought? I'll have to come back to it, though, as these evolutions must simply be seen! This week The Cocklebur King experiences its second stage, and Hardhearted finally reveals its incredible finale!

-

The Cocklebur King: The canid went to the god of the wilds and begged her to grant a wish: make it human, in a shape that would be most pleasing to the man. She agreed to the request, but warned that a being cannot truly change its nature. The canid, now a handsome man, tracked the bright eyed human, named Harte, to a nearby village. He charmed him, seduced him, and eventually they were married.

Hardhearted: The big day is finally here! The concert begins with an edgy chord plucked from an unseen guitar. The sound sweeps over you, sending an electric chill up your spine, and your heart thumps wildly with excitement as your idol takes to the stage! You scream and shout over the pumping music, cheering loudly from your place right by the stage. Before you could even think of reacting the singer grabs you up to the stage to sing a few lines with them! At the end of the show, you stammer your way through requesting an autograph and praise the band for changing your world. The singer smiles at you, handing back a signed portrait, and encourages you to stay true to what you love to do and never put boundaries on what you want to be. Have a hard heart and keep it strong. As soon as you returned home you framed that precious autograph. And now, whenever you feel aimless or confused, you look at the picture and remember the singer's words of encouragement for your life moving forward. You just need to have a hard heart.

My goodness! It's just poetry in motion! I'm standing up and applauding! What's the word for that again? Ovulation? No, no, that's not it... Ovation! Yes. See, I'm getting better at this "thinking of words" thing already. Unfortunately that's all the time we have for this week, but be sure to tune in next week for more evolving items -- and perhaps some more poetry! Don't forget to vote in our Weekly EI Poll and let us know which item was your favorite, and be sure to check out La Victoire for all these beautiful EIs and more. See you next week, Gaians! Now, what rhymes with hemoglobin...

22 Limited Quantity Item: Sleepy Time in La Victoire!
Yawwn! Oh man. You'll have to excuse me. Y'see, I've been up for nearly three hours straight now. It's exhausting! How do you humans do this? All I wanna do is curl up with a nice mug of cocoa and snuggle in my comfy jammies... What's that? You've never seen me wear clothes before? Well, that's because prior to now there were no pajamas for us cuddly critters! But that's about to change, Gaians. We animals demand sleep comfort equality, and we're gonna get it! Y'know. After we take a few naps. Man, am I tired. Well, anyway! Let me show you exactly what I'm talking about. Prepare for cuteness!

-

Sleepy Time makes me feel all warm and fuzzy just looking at it! Those slippers are suuuppper comfy. Believe me, I know. I tested them all out! Cygnus put a couple on his fingers and said they were comfy, too. But only after I asked him to do it like sixty times in a row. Anyway, this cozy little number is available now in La Victoire, and it'll be in the shop until March 31st, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out! Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna put on these jammies and nap for the next eighteen hours or so...

22 Limited Quantity Item: Two different Lovesick Gazes!
Aaahh. So beautiful. I just... can't stop staring at it... Oh! Whoa! How long have you guys been standing there? Ahem. Sorry, you'll have to excuse me. You see, I was staring longingly at this candy bar Cygnus put up on top of the fridge 'cause he knows I can't climb up there. Just look at the yearning in my eyes! It's tragic! It's moving! It's glorious! Oh, how I pine for that candy bar. To peel back that label and finally taste that sweet, nougaty goodness... Tell me, Gaians. Look deep into my eyes. Is this what you humans call... Love? Sigh. Well, at least I know it suits my fabulous features. How can I be so certain? 'Cause I'm basing my adoring stare off these fabulous new eyes!

-

Lovesick Gaze and Heterochromia Lovesick Gaze embody everything it is to stare longingly at something you simply can't have! Doesn't my expression match it perfectly? I like to think so. Here, let me flutter my lashes a bit. That really sells the whole thing. Well, anyway. I can't get my hands on that candy bar -- yet! -- but you can certainly pick up these beautiful new eyes from La Victoire! They'll be in the shop until March 31st, 11:59 PM EST or until they sell out! This is an awesome opportunity just staring you in the face, guys. I suggest you take it!

22 Loaded Dice leaves La Victoire soon!
Greetings, Gaians! How are those dice workin' out for you? Winning a lot? Eh? Eh? Just don't let the guards know they're loaded. I picked 'em up from Nicolae and I don't think he'd appreciate the bad press, if you catch my drift. And I kind of don't wanna tick off that dude. I mean, he's quiet. But it's always the quiet ones, you know? But hey, something this good can't last forever! But since it's heading out soon, bundles of Loaded Dice will be on sale for an additional 20% off until they leave the shop later tonight!

Loaded Dice is a lot like my old pal Dice Roll, but with a little twist! After you toss the dice and get your winning roll, you get to choose whether you want items or gold. You could win up to one billion gold or gorgeous items like Flatline Love or Astra-182: Whipping Black Devil Tail! Pretty sweet, right? Oh, and if you win gold, you'll have the chance to roll again to double your prize! 'Course not even my loaded dice can be perfect all the time, so if you lose your roll that means you lose half your winnings... All right, Gaians! It's your turn to roll the dice! Give 'em a toss and let's see what amazing prizes you score!

24 Dreaming of Sheep back in La Victoire!
My goodness are there a lot of songs about dreaming. Y'see, I wanted to start off this announcement by singing to you guys -- thus fulfilling my dream of doing an entire announcement all in song -- but the fact of the matter is that there are just too many different songs to choose from! I'm overchoiced, guys! Do I want a happy song? A sad song? Would it even make a difference? 'Cause I think my voice is amazing, but Cygnus likes to kid around and say that I am "completely tonedeaf" and that I don't sing, I "caterwaul". That guy is such a joker! Ah, well. I gotta think on this for a while, but in the meantime why not live out a few dreams of your own? I mean, if you've ever dreamt of winning some amazing prizes, then I've got the perfect thing for you!

Would you like a chance at snagging some of these fabulous items? Then you ought to try Dreaming of Sheep! All you have to do is count your sheep until you doze off, at which point you'll no doubt be whisked away to your very own dream -- but the best part is the reward you'll score at the end! Choose gold and you could win up to one billion gold. Choose items and you might win valuable rares like Stellar Dreams or Lady Lunar! Ready to visit your very own dreamland? Then drop by La Victoire before March 24th, 11:59 PM EST, when Dreaming of Sheep fades away! See you in the shop real soon, okay?

24 Limited Quantity Item: Legend of Lagertha in La Victoire!
Y'know, I've only heard tales of this item in myth and song. You guys all heard the story of the shieldmaiden who was tough as nails and took no guff from anyone, right? And how she was pretty much the most awesome thing ever and she pretty much left a sea of kicked butt in her wake? 'Cause I have! I mean, what can I say? I'm a sucker for movies and TV shows about vikings. And I figured it was way past time that I paid 'em a little tribute. So lift your cow horn full of mead, 'cause it's time to toast to this amazing new item!

Legend of Lagertha is as fearsome as she looks -- and lemme tell you, she looks fierce. This gorgeous set is available until April 2nd, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out! Why not drop by La Victoire and check it out in person?

24 Loaded Dice back in La Victoire!
Hah! I am, like, the best negotiator ever. That dude Nicolae? Totally took him for a ride just now. Y'see, he offered to buy my boring, useless old "Action Man of Iron #1 First Edition" comic book in exchange for these totally awesome magic beans! I mean, they're magic -- I gotta say, I think I came out on top this time around. All he got was a stupid comic book I stole from Cygnus! I mean. Um. That I rightfully owned. Annnnywho, while I was visiting with Nicolae I also picked up some more Loaded Dice! You're pretty much guaranteed to win an amazing prize from these -- maybe even an item like the ones pictured below!

Loaded Dice is a lot like my old pal Dice Roll, but with a little twist! After you toss the dice and get your winning roll, you get to choose whether you want items or gold. You could win up to one billion gold or gorgeous items like Flatline Love or Astra-182: Whipping Black Devil Tail! Pretty sweet, right?

All right, I gotta plant these beans and see what happens, but you really ought to stop by La Victoire and check out these Loaded Dice! No promises that I won't be in a giant's castle by the time you arrive.

24 Tart Doufu Hua now available in La Victoire!
Looking for something tart and tangy? Full of flavor and fashion? Adorable and potentially edible all at once? Then look no further, my hungry friends! I've got a brand new recolor that is sure to satisfy your appetite for fabulosity. Your eyes might be bigger than your stomach, but I promise they're not playing tricks on you when you see how amazing this new item is!

-

Okay, please note that I said potentially edible. I tried taking a bite out of this Tart Doufu Hua and believe me, that was kind of a mistake. I mean, it looks so good! Good enough to eat! But unless you really enjoy the taste and texture of high quality fabric, I do not recommend chewing on this super cute ensemble. If you wanna try it on and see how it looks, however, it'll be in the shop until April 1st, 11:59 PM EST! No foolin', I promise. Hope to see you in La Victoire!

24 Bom Bom the Bunny available at 90% discount in La Victoire!
Sigh. So, apparently, Cygnus and Jet's Home for Wayward Critters is still open for business. I don't know why all these adorable little animals come up to me, begging to be homed with Gaians! How in the heck did I build up this reputation? Do people see me as a spineless kitten who coos over anything cute? Because, I mean, it's partly true. But I'm not spineless! Just... Urrggghh. I blame Cygnus. He can never turn anyone in need away. He likes to act all tough but inside he's as soft-hearted as they come! I mean, just look at him! He's covered in a pile of cute little bunnies and I've never seen him so happy before. Blegh. Well, I guess I gotta just go with it. But I want these bunnies out of here pronto! I can't work when I'm surrounded by so much cuteness! It competes with my own natural charisma, you see. And these guys are some real competition. I mean, just look at 'em!

Bom Bom the Bunny is just so sweet and adorable that it's making me feel just a wee bit insecure. So, I wanna get rid of these guys fast!

24 Loaded Dice now available for 20% off!
All right, well. Progress on the magic bean front is, admittedly, dishearteningly slow. But I still believe, guys! I know that these cute little beans are totally going to grow into an amazing, magical beanstalk that will lead me to the heavens and, of course, to amazing treasure! And also away from Cygnus' wrath. Because when I told him about the amazing bargain I had gotten on these beans he kind of went from purple to... red. I've never seen him do that before. He's sitting on the couch right now with his head in his hands. I think I might have broke him? OOPS. So it's okay that my beans haven't sprouted yet, so I can stay here and keep an eye on Cygnus, making sure he doesn't accidentally go supernova on us all. But hey, just because I'm waiting around doesn't mean I need to be bored, right? So I'm gonna run an awesome little sale on our fabulous Loaded Dice! Which, as you remember, is filled with awesome prizes just like these:

Loaded Dice is a lot like my old pal Dice Roll, but with a little twist! After you toss the dice and get your winning roll, you get to choose whether you want items or gold.

"Captain Jet's Log, Stardate 195.2a: Progress on beans is excruciatingly slow. Still have not so much as twitched. Have attempted watering, sunlight, screaming, crying, and classical music. Am beginning to suspect I might have been swindled. First Mate Purple Lug still giving me the cold shoulder. Am beginning to lose hope. If I see that guy Nicolae I'm gonna punch him right in his smug face. End log."

I recorded that an hour ago, Gaians. An hour ago! And my beans still haven't done anything! Man. I'm pretty disappointed at this point. Oh well. At least I have these great Loaded Dice to comfort me, still being offered at an inspiring 20% off!

25 Land the Perfect Spin and you could win an amazing prize!
Y'know, I paid a visit to Gold Mountain just recently, and I gotta say... That place is awesome! The lights! The music! I've never seen anything like it before. With all the flashing strobes and futuristic sound effects I almost felt like I was back in space! It was practically home. I ran around for a while, ogling everything I saw, until the bouncers realized an adorable kitten jumping on everything might be potentially bad for business and they kicked me out. Their loss! But I was already so inspired by some of the things I saw that I wanted to try it out myself! So, with nothing but some ingenuity, a fervent hope, and Cygnus' surprisingly adequate engineering knowledge, I've made myself my own miniature slot machine! And then I loaded it up with amazing prizes, just like the ones pictured here!

Perfect Spin makes it easy to win incredible rewards -- if you're lucky, that is. Pull the lever and see what reels you get! If you end up winning, you get to choose your prize: you could win up to 500 million gold or incredible items like Flatline Love, Ashen Marionette, or even an Angelic Halo! But if you get a not-so-great spin, well... You'll still get to pick whether you want to win a great item or some gold, but maybe just not as much. The most important thing to remember is I'm not gonna kick you outta my shop, unlike those bossy jerks at Gold Mountain! Oh, and make sure to also remember that Perfect Spin leaves the shop March 26th, 11:59 PM EST if you wanna try your luck! Who knows? You might even win the jackpot!

25 Beautiful new wings in La Victoire!
Wow! We've got something really special for you guys today. Particularly if you enjoy feathers and awesomeness! 'Cause, let's face it, that's exactly what I've managed to find. Two new sets of gorgeous wings in equally amazing colors! They're enough to make me a little jealous, honestly. Unfortunately they're too big for my back -- I'm pretty sure they'd snap my spine, actually -- but they look great on any Gaian looking to take to the skies! Just see for yourself, amigos:

-

Zaphkiel's Wings and Kerubiel's Wings are just so fluffy and pretty, I wanna curl up and nap in 'em right this second! In fact, I think I might. So if yours have a little extra cat hair on 'em: you're welcome. Like I always say, consider it my gift to you. They'll be in the shop for a while yet, so definitely drop by and try on a pair if you'd like to elevate your look to new heights!

25 Get a head start on April's CI with Advance Chance!
You know, Gaians, the world just isn't as black and white as it seems. Some might even argue that our world operates on fifty shades of gray. But I don't let that get me down, no sir! I mean, I know everything can't be sunshine, lollipops, and beautiful rainbows. That's just a fact of life! But it doesn't really make me feel blue anymore. In the past I might have been prone to despair, thrust into a black abyss of paralyzing fear at the mere thought of having to deal with life's many terrifying complications, but these days I welcome it! Why? Because of the Numbers, friends. That's why I became an accountant, you see. Well, that and the fact that I'm really, really good at it. There's no "inbetween" with math. You're either right or wrong! No indefinites there; either you get back a paper covered in red "X"s that signify a needed correction, or you score perfectly (like I always do.) Ah, math. My sweet, sweet bastion of well-needed stability in this chaotic world we live in. Of course, I do have other comforts! It seems as if this month's Advance Chance has finally arrived, and not a moment to soon!

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the April Advance Chance. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

Hmm! I've given this one a quite thorough shaking and I can tell by the rattling I'm hearing inside that there have been a few interesting changes! It appears that some old items that have gone below a certain value have been removed to make way for other items, giving you a higher chance to receive new items! I also only see one Advance Chance box—I guess we're only having one Chance Item this month! And I must say, some of these boxes are rattling a little more loudly than others. My guess is that this month's Chance Item offers double prizes for getting to the victory stage! That means you'll receive two items for every victory instead of just one. I'm practically green with envy! Color me surprised, but excited, about all these changes. Be sure to check out our April Advance Chance, available now in La Victoire!

If you end up winning, you get to choose your prize: you could win up to 500 million gold or incredible items like Flatline Love, Ashen Marionette, or even an Angelic Halo! But if you get a not-so-great spin, well... You'll still get to pick whether you want to win a great item or some gold, but maybe just not as much. It's a win-win! Unless you're me. And you keep getting Diedrich. Then it's a soul-crushing lose-lose. Perfect Spin is in the shop until March 26th, 11:59 PM EST, so be sure to check it out when you can!

25 Flynn's Plunder updated with tons of SDPlus Dolls!
Avast, ye thrifty Gaians! Lookin' to pad your doll collections some, are you? Of course you are! Well, lucky for you, I stumbled across a certain secret treasure trove full of the blasted things! I do wonder who they originally belonged to... I did find a lot of sparkling cat fur on some of them, and I'm pretty sure I saw a sign that said "CYGNUS' ACTION FIGURE COLLECTION: JET, DO NOT TOUCH" but, thankfully, I'm not Jet! So yoink I did. And I found some real beauties! We've got tons of dolls, including the lovely SDPlus #362 Fallen Star, SDPlus #346 Thea the Unicorn Spirit, SDPlus R #424 Renard, and SDPlus #424 Renard. So thanks, "anonymous" benefactor! Whoever you are!

Head on over to my plunder and start your bidding, Gaians!

26 Project Dolled Up: Win items, gold, or a great opportunity!
Guys, I gotta admit... I'm kind of freaked out. I decided to check out La Victoire's attic, to see if Cygnus had hidden any extra candy up there, but what I found was just SUPER WEIRD. It was just a bunch of these strange dolls hooked up to machines! Being the fearless kitten that I am, I decided to investigate this matter more thoroughly. I found out that these dolls were being wiped from the inside out. No memories, no personalities, no real features or anything! Just creepy blank dolls. Now, I don't know who put those there, or how they even got into my attic in the first place, but I now have a plethora of empty dolls that are in desperate need of some personality and pizazz. So, I've decided to give Gaians out there a chance to claim this incredible opportunity as their own! Plus you might even win some gold or gorgeous prizes, just like the ones pictured here:

-

With the amazing Project Dolled Up, you could win up to one billion gold or gorgeous items like Melodious Cantata, Luxurious Lucie, or even SDPlus #362 Fallen Star! However, I've also snuck in something extra: the Platinum Ticket. The Platinum Ticket gives a lucky Gaian the chance to create an SDPlus doll of their very own, with a special bonus equip pose! It could be a hairstyle, some enchanting eyes, a fancy belt, a tattoo of me on your face... Anything, really, so long as it abides by our rules and regulations! Although I highly suggest the face tattoo. Just sayin'. You'll also receive copies of your doll to give to your friends! Or, you know. Set up a little shrine to yourself. (It's what I would do.) So, who here wants an adorable little dolly dressed up like them? Then drop by La Victoire before March 28th, 11:59 PM EST, when this super awesome item leaves the shop! Who knows? You might be a lucky winner! Make sure you visit the official Project Dolled up forums to read all the rules and our handy FAQ. Happy doll hunting, Gaians!

26 Limited Quantity Item: Wounded Glory in La Victoire!
Y'know, a lot of human Gaians out there probably see us animals as harmless. What with our oversized heads and tiny arms we, admittedly, don't seem all that ferocious. But people forget that it's an absolute jungle out there! Survival of the fittest! Law of the wild! And sometimes, you know, our most basic instincts come out unexpectedly. Like when Cygnus pulled my tail the other day as a joke and I, you know. Nearly bit his face off. He deserved it! Antagonizing me like that. 'Course, I've got my fair share of battle scars -- and I'm sure other animals out there are no different! So why not show how fearsome a critter you are with some fresh cuts and lacerations, no doubt earned from a raucous brawl at the nearest pub? Just see for yourself!

-

Aww yeah. That'll show 'em that we animals aren't to be messed with! Wounded Glory may sting a little bit, but I'll be darned if you don't look like a real tough guy. It's available now in La Victoire and will be on sale until April 4th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out! Just don't stain my carpets, please.

26 Limited Quantity Item: Devious Cherub in La Victoire!
Y'know, I always thought cherubs were fat little babies zinging people with heart-shaped arrows, wearing giant diapers as they flit around on their feathery little wings. But, uh... I guess I was wrong? 'Cause first we had Bloody Cherub, and now we've got this guy. And I just really don't like the way he's looking at me. Particularly with that scissor half. To be honest he looks a lot cooler than a fat baby with wings, but I'm kind of terrified for my life? Eep. Let's take a closer look, shall we? I mean, a closer look for a safe distance.

-

Devious Cherub manages to look even more wicked than the name implies, somehow. But he's an intriguing fella! In that sort of "bad boy who might murder you" kind of way. He's available until April 4th, 11:59 PM EST or until he sells out! You oughta stop by La Victoire and take a look! Who knows? Maybe he'll steal your heart. Or just cut it out...

26 Whimsical Wisteria now available in La Victoire!
Spring is nearly here and you know what that means, don't you? It's time for adorable pastels that will perfectly thaw out your icy hearts!

That's why I've whipped up this splendid new recolor, full of warm shades that'll be perfect for the new season! Just look at this adorable little bundle of awesome:

-

Whimsical Wisteria is as cute as they come in its pinks and blues, perfect for a picnic or a garden party! It's available now in La Victoire, and will be in the shop until April 1st, 11:59 PM EST. Why not try it on and feel that springtime goodness flowing through you?

26 Allu the Brown Wolf available in La Victoire!
HOW?! HOW DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING?! Am I running an adoption center here? A kennel? Did someone open a veterinary clinic in my shop without me knowing? Why is my beautiful store always flooded with animals who just aren't as awesome as I am?! Sigh. Well, it looks like another pack of friendly critters has dropped by La Victoire, looking for a good home. And seriously, could you turn this adorable face away?

-

Admit it, you couldn't. Allu the Brown Wolf is just too dang cute for his own good! I almost wouldn't mind keeping some of these little guys to myself, but I honestly figure they'll be better off with nice folks like you. Curse my soft spot for fuzzy creatures! I've only got enough space for these guys until April 1st, 11:59 PM EST, so stop by if you wanna pick up a whole passel of pups! Quick, before they shed all over the furniture!

26 Perfect Spin 20% Off!
Y'know, I've been thinking lately... and I've come to the conclusion that a family of hamsters lives behind the reels of the Perfect Spin and run upon command whenever the lever is pulled. I mean, how else would the reels know when to move and stop? When I told Cygnus about my awesome and totally correct theory behind the mechanics of the Perfect Spin, he just stared at me like I was crazy and went off to mumble about levers, mechanical reels, and the like. Cygnus doesn't know anything though, so you probably shouldn't pay too much attention to him. Now, I could spend all day telling you lot about the specifics of how this ingenious system is set up, but I came here to invite you all to celebrate this groundbreaking discovery with me! I will be offering the Perfect Spin at an awesome 20% off until 11:59pm EST to match the sheer awesomeness of my genius!

All you have to do is pull the lever and the hamsters will do all the work for you! It's pretty amazing, right? If the hamsters are in a good mood (or if you're lucky), you get to choose your prize; you could win up to 500 million gold or incredible items like Flatline Love, Ashen Marionette, or even an Angelic Halo! The Perfect Spin will be in the shop until March 26, 2014 at 11:59pm EST, so be sure to give those hamsters a good workout until then!

27 Loaded Dice is back in La Victoire!
All right, so those magic beans Nicolae sold me turned out to be a bust. No problem! According to Nicolae these things are known to happen. But it's totally cool, because he traded me this rare original painting of the Moner Liza, created by the famous artist Bernado Di Vanci, for the beans! Plus a little extra gold -- you know, to compensate for the rarity of this piece. Isn't it beautiful? I'm going to hang it up on the wall right away! And then everyone will stop by and be like "oh Jet, I didn't know you had an interest in fine art, you're so sophisticated and amazing" and I'll be like "yeah it's an original Bernado Di Vanci" and everyone will finally worship me as I so rightfully deserve. ... Ahem. Anyway, I also picked up some more Loaded Dice when I visited Nicolae! Which means you have even more opportunities to score amazing prizes just like these:

Loaded Dice is a lot like my old pal Dice Roll, but with a little twist! After you toss the dice and get your winning roll, you get to choose whether you want items or gold. You could win up to one billion gold or gorgeous items like Flatline Love or Astra-182: Whipping Black Devil Tail! Pretty sweet, right? Oh, and if you win gold, you'll have the chance to roll again to double your prize! 'Course not even my loaded dice can be perfect all the time, so if you lose your roll that means you lose half your winnings... So, what do you say? Wanna drop by my shop to see my super rare painting? Or maybe you wanna pick up some of these awesome Loaded Dice. They'll be in the shop until March 27th, 11:59 PM EST. I hope to see you in the shop real soon!

27 Win an adorable mythical pet with Mystic Shell!
All right, who left all these weird blue orbs all over my lawn? Seriously! Who did it? Was it you, Cygnus? Did you do this? ... Okay he's not really responding, mostly just glaring at me, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he's not the perpetrator. But the outside of my shop is all but littered with the darn things. They all just sort of popped up overnight! I'm kind of curious now... What could possibly be inside 'em? They're awfully warm to the touch. Oh, wait. Hang on. They're wiggling. THEY'RE WIGGLING. WHY ARE THEY WIGGLING. Oh no. Are they eggs? Are a bunch of alien babies about to be born on my lawn? This is it. This is how it ends. Our new alien overlords have arrived and that's that. Goodbye, world! I know you'll miss me because I was amazing! Remember me always as four thousand times better than Cygnus!

Wait. What's that? That's not an alien at all! Oh my goodness. It's adorable! Guys,you just gotta look at these new cuddly friends!

-

Looks like these Mystic Shells are actually filled with mythical beasts! And not aliens. Phew. Crisis averted. And aren't they just the cutest? I see a bakeneko, a kappa, a kitsune, and a sweet little moon rabbit... And is that a beautiful dragon? Wow! So long as they aren't trying to take over the planet, I think they're pretty okay with me. Mostly looks like they wanna play and snuggle more than anything else. Would you guys be interested in checking them out? I mean, they can't just live on my lawn forever. And there are still tons of unhatched eggs... Well, drop by and see if any of the eggs call to you!

27 Loaded Dice now available at 20% off!
Gaians, I'm feeling kind of conflicted. So, apparently, this painting that Nicolae sold me? Totally worthless. Cygnus told me there was no painter called "Bernado Di Vanci", and that the original didn't include a mustache or bushy eyebrows... And that's why I'm so confused! 'Cause that guy Nicolae seems like a totally upstanding young man. I mean, look at him! If that's not a trustworthy face then I'm not sure what is. And besides, he did offer me these Loaded Dice at an amazing discount... Which I'm gonna pass on to you! That's right, folks, you can now pick up Loaded Dice at a whoppin' 20% off. Who knows what'll happen if you play them?

Loaded Dice is a lot like my old pal Dice Roll, but with a little twist! After you toss the dice and get your winning roll, you get to choose whether you want items or gold.

27 Chance of winning a Platinum Ticket doubled for next 5 hours
Weird stuff just keeps happening, Gaians. So, you all know Cygnus, right? He's my purple, super cranky little sidekick. And, as you may or may not know, he's kind of... super into dolls. He calls them "action figures" but we all know what they really are. Anyway, he's usually pretty down and grumpy, but ever since these new blank dolls appeared he's been smiling. I think he's just super excited by the prospect of customizing some dolls for Gaians? So much so that I'm pretty sure I saw him stuffing some extra Platinum Tickets into some of these Project Dolled Up...

With the amazing Project Dolled Up, you could win up to one billion gold or gorgeous items like Melodious Cantata, Luxurious Lucie, or even SDPlus #362 Fallen Star! However, I've also snuck in something extra: the Platinum Ticket. The Platinum Ticket gives a lucky Gaian the chance to create an SDPlus doll of their very own, with a special bonus equip pose! It could be a hairstyle, some enchanting eyes, a fancy belt, a tattoo of me on your face... Anything, really, so long as it abides by our rules and regulations! And for the next five hours, you'll have double the chance to find a Platinum Ticket! Just remember that Project Dolled Up and all of its fabulous items and opportunities leaves the shop March 28th, 11:59 PM EST!

27 New Rainbow Bundles available in La Victoire!
Anyone here ever heard of Roy G. Biv? Apparently he invented the rainbow! Which is crazy. Because I thought science invented rainbows? But no, apparently this guy decided he really liked colors and wanted to stack 'em all on top of one another to make a beautiful prismatic display! And I guess he might also be part leprechaun, since he likes to hide pots of gold at the ends of his rainbow. He sounds a little eccentric, honestly. But I appreciate those eccentricities! The world needs more mad geniuses -- and it could always use a little more color. So, in honor of Mr. Biv and his love of life's many shades, I've arranged a few bundles filled with awesome items to represent every color of the rainbow! Behold their vibrant splendor:

-

Pretty impressive, right? We've got a bundle for every color! Say it with me, kids:


 * • Red Rainbow Bundle
 * • Orange Rainbow Bundle
 * • Yellow Rainbow Bundle
 * • Green Rainbow Bundle
 * • Blue Rainbow Bundle
 * • Purple Rainbow Bundle

Admittedly we're missing indigo, but that's because indigo is just kind of a mash of blue and purple and frankly I consider that cheating. Anyway, we've also got the amazing Surprise! It's a Rainbow, which can open up to reveal any of the bundles listed above, or possibly even the super rare Super Duper Rainbow Bundle, filled with gorgeous items of many different shades! So, you guys ready to go over the rainbow? Then drop by La Victoire soon! These bundles will be in the shop until March 29th, 11:59 PM EST, and then unfortunately the rainbow fades away...

28 Rococo now open, and filled with gorgeous items by PRISM!
Hi, everyone! I'm Kanoko. You might recognize me from Brennivin's shop, where I've been apprenticing for... Wow! Ages now, I guess! But, at long last, it's finally my turn to shine! I've got a real job, Gaians. They've put me in charge of my own shop! I'm delighted to announce that I am now the proprietor of the wonderful Rococo, a store full of amazing items that I'm just sure you'll love! Of course I'm super grateful to Brennivin for teaching me everything I know, but I really think I have something special to offer Gaia. Did you know that I'm super close with a few amazing artists? It's true! In my various careers I made all sorts of connections, you see. And since I'm opening a new shop, I figured I ought to turn to those fabulous artists for help. I asked one of them, the incredibly talented PRlSM, to design me a few spectacular sets for Rococo. And wow! Did she ever deliver. I'm positively tickled pink to introduce Rococo's first line of beautiful garments, all provided by PRlSM!

King of Crowns rules her kingdom with flawless authority and impeccable taste. Who says a king has to be a man? She negotiates with foreign dignitaries as easily and coolly as she wears her tailored suits… and hopefully as easily as she sweeps this table of lightweights.

Ace of Stars Ace of is a lively court magician without much of a poker face. In a ruffled romper and toy crown, they are a perfect picture of eccentric style and overflowing creativity… but can they channel that magical energy into a winning hand? Or will a spell of distraction give them an unfair advantage?

Queen of Flowers prefers to play cards in the comfort of her sprawling garden estate. Are the flowers blooming in her gown and the diamonds sparkling in her tumbling curls a clever distraction? Her laughing hazel eyes won’t say. Will the Queen’s delicate charm win the game?

But that's not all! We've also got three beautiful bundles with a collection of some of PRlSM's greatest items!

-

There's PRISM'S Bundle of Regalness filled with majestic elegance, PRISM's Bundle of Badassery for you ladies looking to kick some butt, and lastly PRISM's Bundle of Cuteness bursting with sweet charm! Each of these also contain a Sainte Ciel 3rd Gen, PRISM's most well recognized item that allows you to choose between Sainte Ciel: Agape and Sainte Ciel: Eros! These bundles will only be in the shop until March 31, 9:59 AM EST, however, so please drop by Rococo soon if you'd like to pick them up!

PRISM's amazing new sets will be in my shop for a while yet, so I invite you to browse all my gorgeous wares and just make yourself at home! I heard that Rina will even be bringing over a pie to celebrate Rococo's grand opening, so be sure you at least stick around to grab a slice!

28 Win some amazing items or gold with Dice Roll II!
All right, no more dice from Nicolae for now! That shyster has conned his last kitten and so I'm not giving him any more of my business! Although he did mention that he had some amazing, never-melt ice cubes for sale... No! No Jet! Be strong! Remember what curiosity does to cats like you... Okay. Phew. Time to distract myself. If I'm boycotting Nicolae for the time being, it's time to return to an old favorite: Dice Roll! But you guys know I like to keep things interesting. So I've taken the game we all know and love and tossed in some brand new, super awesome rewards! Just take a peek and you'll see what I mean:

28 Win a gorgeous new MC recolor with Collectible Illusion!
Gaians, the weirdest thing just happened... I was helping Cygnus sweep up the outside of the shop by shouting words of encouragement at him when I noticed something strange in the bushes: this creepy, dark box with glowing runes all over it. Naturally I figured we oughta open it! But Cygnus was more reluctant. He said the box "gave him bad vibes" and that he wouldn't be responsible for any potential consequences if there was an issue. Well, forget that noise! Let's open this sucker up and see what's inside, right? The top lid is kind of heavy -- kind of wish Cygnus was here to lift it, actually -- but I think I can get it... Almost there, and -- yes! Hah! It's open and... WHOA what kind of crazy pants upside down world is this?!

-

Do my eyes deceive me? Surely this chest can't be full of beautiful new recolors of popular Monthly Collectibles... It's like a Collectible Illusion! There's so many of them. Oh wow, I gotta think up names for these amazing discoveries. Let's see... Descended Demon, Unsettling Omen, Princess Bamboo -- and there's still tons more! You should definitely check this chest out, guys, it's just filled with some of the coolest stuff! I think I'll keep it on my shelves for a while yet, provided this chest isn't cursed or something like that. I'm pretty sure it's okay. I think it only contains pure awesome.

28 EI Report: The Cocklebur King and the new M's Sketchbook
Friday, Friday, Friday! The most splendiferous day of the week! Why? Because you get a visit from me, of course! Let's see, what happened this week in the wonderful world of science... Well. I got Donny the Intern to clean the microwave, mostly by using some impressive behavioral conditioning. That's a pretty amazing accomplishment! Oh, and I totally synthesized a new gas that smells exactly like popcorn jellybeans! I can think of at least a billion different market applications for that. But, most importantly, it's been another fabulous week from Evolving Item science! The Cocklebur King has another incredible evolution to study, and we've discovered a brand new EI called M's Sketchbook! Let's take a closer look, shall we?

-

The Cocklebur King: They lived together for three years, happily, except that the canid could not shake off the god's warning. One night, the maneater had a dream, of chasing prey through the forest. When he woke he found himself digging his teeth into his husband's shoulder, drawing blood. Horrified, he pulled back, and unable to bear the thought of what he had nearly done, had WANTED to do, he fled from the village and into the forest. Surrounded by the trees and the dark, the taste of iron in his teeth, he surrendered his shape and became a wild thing again.

M's Sketchbook: It was just another day. You stop at your usual taxicab stand only to find someone already there. She’s wearing an awful lot of cream and brown, but nothing about her really strikes you. You keep your distance as she speaks rapidly into an earpiece, her finger pointing to an open book in one hand while clasping a key in the other. “What’s wrong with earmuffs?” Her voice retained its disbelief as she continued, “I happen to like earmuffs.” Somehow you feel bad for listening in. Even more so when you peeked over her shoulder to catch a glimpse of said earmuffs. Then again, you didn’t have anything better to do. Plus, she didn’t appear to notice.

Incredible! And what's this? It seems like I've found a preview of some future evolutions from M's Sketchbook... How curious!

-

Unfortunately that's all the time we have for this week, but I can already tell we've got some exciting evolutions ahead of us! Be sure to check out these gorgeous EIs in La Victoire when you have the chance, and don't forgot to vote in our Weekly EI Poll. See you next Friday, Gaians!

28 Rococo's Grand Opening still going strong!
Wow guys! My grand opening has been so much fun! But also really busy! I haven't sat down in the past ten hours. Of course Brennivin never let me sit down in his store, even when I had that concussion! I guess I really do owe him a lot. He trained me well! I just wanted to go ahead and thank you all for making my shop launch so special, and to remind everyone of all the incredible products I've got available! If you're a fan of PRlSM's lovely work you really need to stop by my shop and take a peek. Just look at the gorgeous sets she's made just for Rococo!

In a ruffled romper and toy crown, they are a perfect picture of eccentric style and overflowing creativity… but can they channel that magical energy into a winning hand? Or will a spell of distraction give them an unfair advantage?

Queen of Flowers prefers to play cards in the comfort of her sprawling garden estate. Are the flowers blooming in her gown and the diamonds sparkling in her tumbling curls a clever distraction? Her laughing hazel eyes won’t say. Will the Queen’s delicate charm win the game?

Not only do we have these amazing new sets from PRlSM, but I also made three bundles featuring her most recognizable and well-loved items here on Gaia. Take a peek!

These bundles are not only filled with wonderful goodies, but each bundle contains a Sainte Ciel 3rd Gen. That means you can open it up to get the beautiful Sainte Ciel: Eros, or even the amazingly versatile Sainte Ciel: Agape with its incredible hair cutting scissors! These bundles are only available until March 31, 9:59 AM EST, so be sure not to let this amazing opportunity to own some of Gaia's history pass you by!

I hope you're as excited to see Rococo up and running as I am. Please visit me in my shop soon!

More mysteries from the future have been unveiled to me! It appears that I'm not only going to marry a movie star, but this movie star is also going to be a washed up old hack!

29 Rookie Love and Comfy Love now available in La Victoire!
Y'know Gaians, if you ask me, true love is kind of a silly notion. I mean, what are the chances that you're just going to randomly encounter your soul mate out on the street? Nonexistent, at best! Unless you're in the movies, where that kind of ridiculousness apparently goes down every other day. Alas, life is not a movie. Or, if it is, it's kind of a lousy one. Anyway, I leave that sappy romantic stuff to my buddy Cygnus -- it just ain't for a cool cat like me. Or, apparently, any of these stylish young ladies!

-

I'm guessing Comfy Love and Rookie Love don't really buy into that whole "everyone has a soulmate" business either. Well, at least they can take solace in their fabulous outfits? They're both on sale right now in La Victoire, along with the original Flatline Love and the Flatline Bundle containing all three! Drop by the shop before April 4th, 11:59 PM EST if you'd like to give these outfits a spin!

29 Limited Quantity Item: Prince and Princess Eyes
I'm up to my eyeballs in eyes! Normally I would be kind of creeped out, but I don't know. These are, admittedly, some very nice eyes. I mean sure, I feel a little uneasy. Like I'm being stared at all the time, you know? I swear that they follow you when you move... But I could just stare back at them for days! Plus it's really been helping me up my "no blinking" skills in case I ever want to challenge Cygnus to a staring contest -- and he actually agrees. Here, you oughta practice too!

-

Or maybe you're more interested in trying on these lovely peepers instead... These beautiful eyes come in two different flavors: normal, and heterochromia! We've got Stoic Princess Eyes, Heterochromia Princess Eyes, Shonen Prince Eyes, and Heterochromia Shonen Prince Eyes. They'll be on sale until April 7th, 11:59 PM EST or until they sell out!

29 Trickster's Gambit now available in La Victoire!
Here, hang on, I've been practicing this magic trick for like the past ten hours or so. Okay, grab a card. Don't show it to me! Now put it back in the deck. Good job! Okay, let me shuffle all the cards here... and voila! Like magic, I've found your card! Was it... the Four of Hearts? No? Okay, no worries. That was just a test. Because it was obviously the QUEEN OF DIAMONDS. What's that? Not that one either? Dangit! You'd think I'd be better at this, given how amazing I am at everything. Well, I guess I've got some practicing to do. But maybe this lovely little magician can help me figure out some new tricks...

Trickster's Gambit is just as clever as she is stylish! Or perhaps a better word is cunning? Anyway, this fabulous item is available now in La Victoire, where it'll be on sale until April 4th, 11:59 PM EST. Come check it out before it magically disappears!

Okay, this is just starting to get creepy. How does this Cute Catcher thing know so many secrets? All my secrets?

I don't want to play with it any more, and yet, I feel compelled! It truly has a strange hold over me. Maybe it's just the allure of its amazing prizes...

With Cutie Catcher you just pick your color and learn your fortune! Not only that, but you also get to choose whether you want a hefty bag of gold -- you could even win up to one billion gold! -- or fabulous items like Bound Warlock or an Angelic Halo!

29 Want to win tons of great gold? Time to Make It Rain!
Man! Some weather we're having today, huh? I've never seen it pour so hard. Is it monsoon season? Does Gaia have a monsoon season? These are the questions that, alas, I don't have answers to. I'm a kitten, not a meteorologist! I don't even know anything about meteors! But if there is one thing I do know, it's that every cloud has a silver lining. Or possibly even... a golden lining?

That's right! With Make It Rain you'll be literally showered with gold! Simply open one up and see what kind of weather you get. Clear skies? Less gold. But if you're lucky you might earn yourself a hurricane of up to one billion gold! That's a rainy season I can get behind, even if I don't like getting wet! Just bring an umbrella -- I know those gold pieces landing on your head can hurt a little. Make It Rain will be in the shop until March 31st, 11:59 PM EST, so be sure to drop by soon and check it out!

But you have to admit that her outfit would probably be pretty amazing, right? I mean, what else does a princess have to spend money on besides looking good? Her kingdom? An education? Charity? ...

Which is why this next item is so utterly fabulous...

31 Cash Shop Update: Stellar Quasar Bundle
Does anyone else here read "Space Politics Weekly" at all? Cygnus gets it delivered but, frankly, I usually find it a waste of paper. It's so boring! Also, we're highly advanced star beings from outer space. Why are we still printing our news on physical paper? Ugh. But as Cygnus was reading it over breakfast, I happened to glance up from my bowl of SUGAR FROSTED KIBBLE BITS and spy a picture on the front page that caught my eye! Turns out this little prince guy had been kidnapped by enemy forces, but was then rescued by this totally awesome lady from some terrifying dragon! Political intrigue, man. It's crazy! Anyway I stole the paper from Cygnus when he was done and gave it a quick read. Look, I even made a summary for you guys!

-

Orionis Warrioress: This futuristic warrior is ready to infiltrate enemy territory and destroy all who stand between her and saving her prince. Includes her two-tone streaked hair, bone headpiece, cuffed gloves, strappy dress, long sheer train, and belted boots.

Seven Zenith Prince: The young prince of a vast empire, new to the throne... but not new to being kidnapped and held for ransom. Includes his horned laurels, dark hair with streaks, his royal scepter, flowing cape, commanding arms, and embellished trousers.

Novae the Quasar Dragon: This massive dragon guards the final cell that keeps only the most important prisoners of war. The Orionis Warrioress has no idea what's in store for her when she's broken through enemy forces... Includes three impressive poses and your own pair of clawed wings.

Available exclusively in the Stellar Quasar Bundle is Gliese 581c! This imposing fortress is the Zenith Empire's home base, where the Prince fondly reminisces in the familiarity of glowing tower buildings, magic-infused technology and weapons, and blue-streaked hair extensions that are all the rage.

Pretty awesome, right? It was such a good article, guys. And now you have the opportunity to dress up like these brave space heroes and that mean, giant dragon! You should definitely drop by La Victoire soon to try on these amazing, sci-fi inspired clothes!

Gaians, we all know that my fur is perfect. No other cat can even come close to having as luxurious or lustrous a coat as I have, obviously. Just look at how it sparkles. Glorious! But, y'know, sometimes I do get a little envious that humans don't have fur -- instead they have hair! Versatile, lovely hair! Short, medium, wavy, curly... You can wear it any which way! Of course, I myself am partial to long, flowing locks. Which is why I'm so excited to introduce this gorgeous new item! If you're looking for beautiful hair perfect for standing majestically on wind-swept peaks, then this new wig is ideal for you.

31 Win a pile of treasure with Dragon Hoard!
Brave adventurer! Are you willing to face the terrifying dragon that lies in wait in La Victoire? He's sitting on a massive collection of gold, so if you want some of that treasure you'll have to best him in combat! But be careful, as he's an awfully fearsome... tiny, adorable little creature. Named Engelbert. Okay, so, maybe he's not that ferocious. And also he might have offered to share his treasure with friendly Gaians. But that's a lot less exciting to talk about! Dangit, Engelbert, why do you have to be such a nice guy? And so generous to boot!

With Dragon Hoard Engelbert the Dragon will give you a cut of his precious treasure just because he's an awesome little dude. 'Course, he kind of portions it out at random -- dragons aren't exactly the best at counting, you know? I heard you could win up to one billion gold, though! He's a rich little fella. Drop by La Victoire before April 2nd, 11:59 PM EST if you'd like to say hey and maybe take home a few coins!

31 Get April's Advance Chance for 30% off until 11:59 PM EST!
Disastrous news, Gaians! It appears that Mr. Bibbles has gnawed the corners of some of these Advanced Chances... They're still fine, of course! I checked them all and their seal is still perfect. They're just slightly nibbled, is all. Unfortunately I wouldn't feel right charging full price for boxes covered in cat saliva, and so I'm discounting April's Advance Chance by 30% until March 31, 11:59 PM EST.

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the April Advance Chance. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

Of course I'm absolutely seeing red over Mr. Bibbles' foolish impertinence, but every time I glance into those glass green eyes of his I simply can't bring myself to be all that upset. Especially since I'm so excited about this month's CI! You remember all of its amazing, special qualities, right? It appears that some old items that have gone below a certain value have been removed to make way for other items, giving you a higher chance to receive new items! I also only see one Advance Chance box—I guess we're only having one Chance Item this month! And I must say, some of these boxes are rattling a little more loudly than others. My guess is that this month's Chance Item offers double prizes for getting to the victory stage! That means you'll receive two items for every victory instead of just one. Again, sorry about the corners of the boxes being slightly mauled. I promise they're still just as good as every other Advance Chance out there! Please drop by La Victoire if you're interested in picking a few up.

That's right! With Make It Rain you'll be literally showered with gold! Simply open one up and see what kind of weather you get. Clear skies? Less gold. But if you're lucky you might earn yourself a hurricane of up to one billion gold! That's a rainy season I can get behind, even if I don't like getting wet! Just bring an umbrella -- I know those gold pieces landing on your head can hurt a little. Make It Rain will be in the shop until March 31st, 11:59 PM EST, so be sure to drop by soon and check it out!

01 Hi Gaia, hi! Happy foolish day and birthday to me!
Hi Gaia, hi!

Did you know that it is April Fools Day and that it is also my birthday? OH YAY FOR ME BEING BORN! I am so excited about being born. I make the world much happier and greener! Did you know that the animals are plotting to take over Gaia? I DIGRESS!

I am having a little party in my special forum today to celebrate myself and foolishness. Not that I am foolish - I am a very serious president. Very serious. But I like cake! CAKE! @presdiedrich

Come join us for fun and maybe cake and maybe some foolishness. Maybe. I guarantee nothing!

- OK CLICK THIS NOW! GO TO THE PARTY! YAY!

01 Dragon Hoard Bundles now 30% off until 11:59 PM EST!
Did you know that today is a very special day? It is. It is the most special of days. I have spoken with Engelbert the Dragon -- did you know he is an actual dragon, and not just a pretend one like the lizards outside the shop? -- and he has offered to share some of his hoard at a discounted rate! That means you can pick up this amazing item for 30% off until 11:59 PM EST.

With Dragon Hoard Engelbert the Dragon will give you a cut of his precious treasure just because he's an awesome little dude. 'Course, he kind of portions it out at random -- dragons aren't exactly the best at counting, you know? I heard you could win up to one billion gold, though! He's a rich little fella. Drop by La Victoire before April 2nd, 11:59 PM EST if you'd like to say hey and maybe take home a few coins! Okay bye. Bye now. Bye bye.

01 The Frozen Ringmaster now available in La Victoire!
Isn't the circus the best? Did you know that I love the circus? I love all sorts of things, but I like circuses quite a lot. They have so many rings! Three rings! That is so many rings, Gaians. Did you know that there was once a ten ring circus? It is true. But it closed down. Because I commandeered a cannon. And also maybe other reasons, but probably mostly that. BUT I DIGRESS. Look! We have a super neato thing!

-

The Frozen Ringmaster probably has a very cold circus. Maybe he has performing penguins. Wouldn't that be nice? It would be a very special place. But did you know that there are even more Ringmasters out there? There is an entire Monsieur Loyal Collection with a whole bunch of incredible recolors. It is great -- maybe even possibly the most great. They will only be in the shop until April 7th, 11:59 PM EST, so you must drop by before the circus leaves town. You must. It's an order.

Okay thank you for listening! Thank you! I love you! Bye!

01 Dragon Hoard now available in a 48 pack!
Did you know that a dragon's lucky number is 48? It's true! And so I have now created the incredible Dragon Hoard (48 Pack) in order to appease Engelbert and keep him from eating me! How terrifying. I'm very excited. Especially since we're still having a 30% discount on all our Dragon Hoard bundles! Did you know dragons love cheap things? They do. Provided it isn't cheap food. They only dine on the finest foods. Like me.

01 Medical Angel Nyanko now available in La Victoire!
Did you know that cats make the best nurses? It's true. They secrete a special venom from spurs located on their hind legs that help promote healing and wellness! It also burns! Horribly! But that is okay if it helps you feel less sick. Because I, Jetrich, care for you deeply. I only want what is best for you. The very best. Which is why I stole this from Club Verge. It is a nurse who is also a cat.

Let the healing begin.

-

Medical Angel Nyanko is so nice. The very nicest. Not only is she the most fashionable ever of all the cat nurses, but she is also extremely deadly with that needle! You should watch out. Haha! Just kidding. She would never hurt you. Publicly. You can find her fancy ensemble right here in La Victoire, where everything is normal and wonderful and there is no need for you to be afraid.

Okay I have to go now. Okay bye. Bye bye.

Oh my goodness! Yes, it is true. I would never lie. Which is why we are now offering Dragon Hoard in a 100 pack bundle! I could melt with excitement. I already have a little.

01 Cutie Catcher back in La Victoire with bundles 30% off!
Cutie Catchers are filled with jelly beans and peanut butter! Did you know that is how they predict the future? It is true. I know it is a fact because I just told you. And I only speak truths, Gaians. Profound, beautiful truths. But Cutie Catchers are not only filled with delicious treats, they are also brimming with amazing prizes! Look, see, there's even a nice picture...

With Cutie Catcher you just pick your color and learn your fortune! Not only that, but you also get to choose whether you want a hefty bag of gold -- you could even win up to one billion gold! -- or fabulous items like Bound Warlock or an Angelic Halo!

01 New recolors in Dernier Cri!
My goodness. Today is quite an exciting day, isn't it? It seems like many of my fellow shopkeepers look a little... Different. I'm quite amused, personally. And apparently immune to whatever sort of terrible disease, or black magic, or bizarre curse that it appears Diedrich is spreading. Bully for me, I suppose. Although I guess it would have been an exciting diversion... But nevermind, while my colleagues are clearly feeling a little "ill" I've taken the time to be as productive as possible. I spoke with Brennivin—sort of—and he agreed to host a few more of my items while my shop is getting off the ground. Would you care to take a peek?

-

Lovely, aren't they? Here's a list of all the new items:


 * • Red Bunny Ears
 * • White Bunny Ears
 * • Green Bunny Ears
 * • Navy Devil Tail
 * • Pink Devil Tail
 * • White Devil Tail
 * • D Tail

The White Devil Tail and the D Tail are a little exceptional in their own right. The magic used to create them is somewhat unstable—they will only be available until April 8, 11:59 PM EST. Fascinating, isn't it? Be sure to check them all out in Dernier Cri. Just... be careful around Brennivin until he feels better. I think he bites now.

02 Limited Quantity Item: Absolute Maiden in La Victoire!
My goodness, Gaians. This next item we have is practically divine! I hope you're all strapped in, folks, because I think just merely laying eyes on this set might be enough to give you wings! Of excitement! It works somehow -- just trust me on this. Anyway, enough of my silly yammering. Let's get to the fun part and actually take a look, shall we?

-

Absolute Maiden is the living embodiment of beautiful purity! With her elegant wings and ivory ensemble, she'll no doubt wing her way straight into your heart. This gorgeous item is available now in La Victoire, but something this spectacular is only available in limited quantities! So Absolute Maiden will be in the shop until April 11th, 11:59 PM EST or until she sells out. Be sure to drop by the shop to try on this amazing item!

02 Bloodstained Cook now available in La Victoire!
Y'know, the world of cookery is a bloody arena unless you're careful. I mean there are burning stove tops, broiling ovens, superheated metal pots filled with boiling water -- and let's not even talk about the shop, pointy implements! All those knives creep me out, guys. I just know I'm gonna get stuck on the wrong end of one. Particularly if Cygnus is cooking! That guy has a lot of anger I think he needs to work out. Anyway, I guess what I'm getting at is being a chef is kind of a dangerous task unless you know what you're doing. Lucky for you, these guys are master gourmets!

-

Ignore the stains on their aprons, I've been informed that it's just ketchup. Although I gotta say, the Bloodstained Cook doesn't make me feel particularly safe... Well, he and his cooking chums can be found right here in La Victoire, where you can even pick up the Cutthroat Bundle to nab the entire collection! They'll be in the shop until April 8th, 11:59 PM EST so drop by soon if you've got a real appetite for destruction -- and fashion!

02 Let's Party now in La Victoire!
Recently, Cygnus managed to get his hands on an origami book and he's become absolutely obsessed with folding these little paper boxes on patterned pieces of paper. I thought it was kind of funny at first, but NOW I'M FINDING THEM EVERYWHERE. Really, Cygnus? Really? Sigh. What am I supposed to do with you? I'd like to not have to crawl over Mount Boxmore just to get to my favorite spot, so I wonder if I can convince him to give some up...

Here's an update guys. I've managed to convince Cygnus that the billions of boxes that he folded need new homes because they have feelings and a basic urge for companionship! Genius, right? When he heard that, the poor guy started panicking and stuffing the boxes with items like Orifiel's Wings, A Little Night Party, and up to 500 million gold as a sort of... gift for their new owners I suppose? Where is all of this coming from, Cygnus?!

For some reason, he's also been continually muttering "Let's Party" under his breath... I think I may have broken him for good this time. Come to think of it, that's not a bad name for this little box of goodies! If you want a nifty box that was folded with TLC by Cygnus' own hands, be sure to drop by La Victoire before April 3rd 11:59pm EST and pick one up!

02 His Anguish now available in La Victoire!
Have you been searching for the ideal outfit to look tortured in? Brooding yet fabulous? Stoically displeased but still perfectly coiffed? Never fear, Gaians! I've put together an amazing ensemble that will let you look your best while feeling your absolute worst! Of course, I was feeling a little more colorful than usual... Well, anyway, let's take a peek!

-

In his gorgeous shades of burgundy and gold, this mysterious man hopes you will notice His Anguish. It's available now in La Victoire, along with the His Darkness Bundle featuring the original and all previous recolors! What a bargain, eh? It might even be enough to make you smile -- if you ever wanted to. Which, obviously, you don't. They'll be in the shop until April 8th, 11:59 PM EST so drop by soon!

02 Flynn's Plunder updated with Evolving Items!
Ahoy, Gaians! Flynn checking back with another awesome haul as usual! This time, I intercepted a ship that was carrying the motherload of old Evolving Items and their recolors! I think I found a few dark brown hairs on some of the loot, multiple khaki collared shirts, and a pair of tacky sunglasses, but ehhh... I'm sure their previous owner won't miss them too much.

While loading these beauties onto my ship, I noted a Sainte Ciel: Agape, Rosamund's Rage, Lamenting Lucie, and Runcible Spoon Renewal just to name a few! If I may say so, I think I've really outdone myself this time. These items can be yours if you head on over and start bidding! Until next time, space cowboys!

02 Cutie Catcher Leaving Tonight!
Dear Cutie Catcher... what should I eat for dinner? What? I should eat any and all food labeled as "Property of Cygnus. DO NOT EAT, JET. I KNOW IT'S YOU"? Well, you certainly know what's best for me, Cutie Catcher. I always say that the best tasting food is the food that doesn't belong to me! Hey... maybe you would also know what items Gaians would enjoy! Let's ask it, shall we?

Wowza! It says that you have a chance to win a Bound Warlock, Angelic Halo, and up to one billion gold amongst other shiny items!? Now that's pretty amazing. Not quite as amazing as me, but you're pretty close! Be sure to check it out at a cool 30% off before it leaves the shop tonight at April 2, 11:59pm EST!

02 Cafe Rosa Now In La Victoire
Oh my goodness, you guys. I was on my way home when I took a wrong turn and somehow stumbled into Cafe Rosa, the cutest pink and cream cafe that I've ever seen. And trust me, I've seen a lot of pink and cream cafes in all of my various nine lives. This one truly tops them all! Like whipped cream! Get it? Because the cafe is pink and cream colored? Ba dum tss! Aaaanyway... the soft color palette that they chose, the laid back atmosphere of the place... a cool cat like me could really get used to a life filled with pastel colors.

-

Luckily, with the latest breakthroughs in Kitten Star technology, you too can experience your own super kawaii and adorable Cafe Rosa! You'd better act fast though, since they'll be in the shop until April 8th, 11:59pm EST! Mmm... now excuse me while I take a well-earned cat nap in this perfect patch of sunshine.

03 Looks like we have a winner - New animal base picked!
Oh my goodness Gaians - exciting news!

Hi! It's me, Mr. Wibbles, and I have some super exciting news for all you animals or just animal lovers!

Remember our recent All Your Animal Base item with the fabulous prize - you know, one lucky winner would win the chance to choose a brand new animal base? Well, we are happy to announce that we have finally managed to track down our winner - it took some doing! Normally we are better at following animal tracks, but this creature was wily and elusive!

Anyway, put your paws together and give a big round of appaws for... Pusheh! And thanks to Pusheh, you'll soon see the addition of the...Floppy-Eared Puppy animal base. Not sure when these will roll out, but we are super excited that more animals will be here to help take over Gaia... erm, I mean, that more animals will be here to have fun on Gaia. Yes, that's it..nothing about taking over Gaia...nooooo...*cough*

Congrats to Pusheh once again!

03 Let's Party now available in a 64 pack!
Yeah... this "Mount Boxmore" thing has reeeeally gotten out of hands, guys. The funny thing is, I can't even remember when Cygnus found all the time to fold each and every one of these Let's Party boxes by hand. It's like the guy just breathes and more boxes appear! When he blinks, even more boxes appear! I sure wish I had the ability to breathe and create more cat treats. Come on, evolution. Be a pal, would ya?

Anyway, since I'd like to be able to walk around the shop without having to climb over a massive pile of Cygnus' homemade boxes, I have created a Let's Party Bundle (64 Pack) so you can buy them in groups of 64, my fourteenth favorite number! Fascinating, huh? This is a super awesome deal and gives you the opportunity to get your paws (or hands, I suppose) on great items like Orifiel's Wings, A Little Night Party, or up to 500 million gold! This awesome bundle leaves on April 3rd, 11:59pm EST, so don't miss out!

03 Limited Quantity Item: Wayward Son by Hi-Potion!
Jet: AAHH. GAIANS. I'M SO EXCITED. I CAN'T STOP SHOUTING. TODAY IS A GREAT DAY, AND -- hmph!

Cygnus: Sorry, guys. Jet's been screaming at the top of his lungs all day and I just couldn't take it anymore. Jet, I'll take my hand off your mouth if you promise to stop yelling for at least fifteen minutes.

Jet: I accept your harsh and unreasonable terms, you tyrant. Now go away! I've got big news that really really ought to be shouted but apparently I'm not allowed. Cruel! Anyway, you're probably wondering what I'm flipping out about. Well, it seems like the first of our Project Couture sets has finally arrived! Remember, these are gorgeous new items designed by lucky Gaians who managed to secure a Golden Ticket! And boy, this set is just incredible! Let's take a look, shall we?

-

A huge, thunderous round of applause to Hi-Potion for designing this amazing item! Wayward Son looks so dang cool that it's practically supernatural! It'll be in the shop until April 16th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out! Once again, a big thank you to the talented Hi-Potion for coming up with this fabulous new set! I can't wait to see the other items the winners have designed!

03 Project NPC Apprentice: Win gold, items, or a special ticket
Jet: Ah, the glorious life of a shopkeeper! There's a lot more to it than one would think, you know. It's not all just shelving inventory or keeping the store tidy. You've got to have charisma! Lots of product knowledge! Thumbs! (But only if you want to work the register -- which is why I make Cygnus do it.) But you get a lot of perks in exchange for all your hard work. For example, did you know that every shopkeeper on Gaia is guaranteed at least five hours of naptime during store hours?

Cygnus: I think only you and Rufus managed to successfully negotiate that term...

Jet: Or two free bags of kitty kibble a week?

Cygnus: What? I don't even get a free lunch.

Jet: Plus we get to try on lots of cool clothes!

Cygnus: The last time I tried on a new scarf you hissed at me until I took it off.

Jet: And, best of all, we get to chat with all the amazing Gaians out there!

Cygnus: Ugh. Forget it. I'm taking a half day.

Jet: ... See? That's the problem, though. It's so hard to find good help these days! They're either too petulant, sulky, or grumpy to actually do any real work. I know a lot of the other Gaian shopkeepers feel the same way, too. Which is why we've decided to band together and offer the rare opportunity to apprentice at one of our shops! I had some leftover bags from Project Couture, so I chucked in some gold, valuable items, and new tickets and -- voila! Awesomeness ensues!

-

With Project NPC Apprentice you could win up to 1 billion gold or amazing items like Azrael's Wings, Kanoko's Nightmares, or even an Angelic Halo. But that's not even the best part! I've also tucked away a few rare Emerald Tickets. These tickets are super, duper special -- redeeming a ticket allows you to become an apprentice in the store of your choice for a month! You'll get special art provided by a talented Gaian artist, a cool new achievement, and one billion gold as a gift for helping out! Don't worry, we promise not to work you too hard. Just make sure you visit the Project NPC Apprentice forums to read all the rules, regulations, and the FAQ! So, anyone out there interested in padding their resume a little? Drop by La Victoire and check out Project NPC Apprentice! It'll be in the shop until April 5th, 11:59 PM EST. I can't wait to see who wins!

03 Raspberry Ribbon Candy now available in La Victoire!
Hey guys. Sorry if I lack some of my usual obnoxious enthusiasm today. It's just that... I just came back from the dentist, and he told me I needed to lay off the candy, otherwise my teeth will likely develop sentience and actually rebel against me. Ugh! It's just the worst. Who would have thought that eating a bajillion Candy Hearts would ruin me like this? I'm so bummed. Especially since we just got in a shipment of this shockingly sweet and adorable new recolor that I'm practically dying to sink my teeth into...

-

Raspberry Ribbon Candy looks practically good enough to eat. Which is why it's killing me that I can't! But at least you well-brushed Gaians out there can enjoy it, right? It's available now in La Victoire, along with the Tasty Candy Bundle which includes the original Ribbon Candy, Strawberry Ribbon Candy, and this delicious new recolor! They'll be in the shop until April 10th, 11:59 PM EST. Hopefully I'll be able to actually eat sweets by then. I'm worried that abstaining from snacking on treats will literally kill me!

03 Let's Party now 30% off!
Augh! Mount Boxmore continues to grow ever taller and more perilous! I nearly tumbled off its peak earlier today when I was trying to fetch the milk from the fridge. It almost seems to be spreading through the shop, like some sort of papery plague. I'm starting to worry about Cygnus at this point. What's with this weird, obsessive behavior? Maybe there's something else going on in that empty noggin of his. But look, I'm getting desperate. Please, for the love of CHEESE, help me get rid of some of these party boxes! I'll even offer bundles of them to you at a great additional 30% discount until they leave the shop!

With Let's Party you could win some amazing favors! It might be gorgeous items like Orifiel's Wings or A Little Night Party, or even up to 500 million gold! Sounds like a bash I'd want to atttend -- if I survive this overflow of boxes. My goal is to be rid of 'em all by April 3rd, 11:59 PM EST. Help me, Gaians! You're my only hope!

03 Win a gorgeous recolored Checkmate set with Checkmate Remix!
Life is full of eternal struggles. Good versus evil. Light versus dark. Man versus food. Big, heavy battles! But you wanna know what fascinates me the most? Checkmate. I mean, it's incredible! And I don't even like chess. But something about awesome warriors in fancy get up beating on one another with lances and shields and swords is just so... Epic! But, y'know, chess is a funny thing. Pieces get captured, black becomes white, up becomes down, blue becomes gold -- all sorts of craziness! Which is why this new Checkmate Remix is so darn cool. It takes everything you thought you knew about the Checkmate universe and turns it completely on its head! See for yourself if you don't believe me:

-

What is going on here? Everything is the wrong color! Or is it the right color? I'm so confused! And yet, I am also intrigued. Who should I be rooting for in this strange new universe? Nothing makes sense anymore! Checkmate Remix is on our shelves now, so drop by for a quick game to see if anything catches your eye!

03 Let's Party leaves La Victoire soon!
Gaians, I just can't take this anymore. I am seriously, SERIOUSLY, all partied out. Please, just... Just let it be over. Take your kazoos, take your noisemakas, take your silly little hats -- but most of all, take these party favors! I think Cygnus finally finished his folding frenzy, but I still feel like I'm swimming in a sea of wee origami boxes. They're cute, but the paper cuts are starting to sting a little. Besides, who knows what you might find inside one of these cute little guys? It could even be great prizes like these!

With Let's Party you could win some amazing favors! It might be gorgeous items like Orifiel's Wings or A Little Night Party, or even up to 500 million gold! Just remember that this party -- thankfully -- ends April 3rd, 11:59 PM EST. These little boxes of fun are currently being sold at a 30% discount, so there's never been a better time to stop by and check 'em out! Just don't show them to Cygnus. I'm afraid it'll just inspire him to make more...

03 The Circus Has Arrived: Introducing Loyal's Bazaar!
Ladies and Gentlemen, Gaians from all walks of life! Come one, come all, and attend my words well! After all, I know everyone has been waiting with bated breath for this very moment... And who am I to disoblige my lovely Gaian audience?

You all know me as Monsieur Loyal, ringmaster extraordinaire and living conduit of whimsical fantasy. Permit me my interruption, my friends, but I just wanted to let you know that Loyal's Bazaar, my incredible new shop, has finally flung open its doors to Gaia's populace! Well—to those who meet my requirements, that is. What marvelous wonders can be discovered behind its canvas walls? How about a little peek...

-

C'est incroyable, non? These exotic delights and so much more await you at my Bazaar, if you're lucky enough to have earned your ticket! But that's not all: I've also set up a guild for shop members! Feel free to post in there, make friends, and let me know what items you think might make good additions to my shop. I'll be having random contests as well, so keep an eye out for those! Make sure to check your private messages—if you're eligible to access the Bazaar and guild, you'll get a special invite from me!

If you are currently ineligible to access the Bazaar, don't fret! Becoming a member is as easy as turning invisible—perhaps even easier! Check out the Loyal's Bazaar landing page to see details on what you'll need to do to become a member!

Alas, it's time for the curtain to fall. That's all for now, but I'm sure you'll be hearing more from me in the not so distant future. Until next time, Gaians...

04 Limited Quantity Item: Boardroom Beast in La Victoire!
Y'know, being cute isn't all it's cracked up to be. Oh, who am I kidding? It totally is. But there are some animals out there looking for something more fulfilling -- or so I've heard! They pursue poetry, the culinary arts, exploration... All sorts of crazy stuff! And then there are those particular "Type A" animals who only feel at home in the urban jungle. You know the ones. Tie perfectly clipped on, shirt neatly ironed, mouth perpetually open to berate the poor beleaguered coffee boy. Man! They're scary. I'd probably rather face a lion, honestly, than one of these guys:

-

The Boardroom Beast might be diminutive in stature, but he more than makes up for it with cunning and an aptitude for making scary faces. He's the kind of guy you hate to love, the one who grudgingly earns your respect after saving the company, but you still tend to take the stairs if you see him in the elevator. I'll be darned if he doesn't look awful snazzy in his corporate togs, though. Pick one up now in La Victoire before April 13th, 11:59 PM EST or before they sell out! Otherwise he might get even angrier.

03 Little Mandate now available in La Victoire!
Stop! In the name of all things cute, I command you to halt! Don't make me whap you with my billy club. Well, okay, it's actually not mine... It belongs to our newest recolor! But she let me borrow it, provided I don't do anything bad. Okay, maybe she didn't let me. I may have, um... Apprehended it through more unusual means. I might have stolen it. But I'll give it back! Eventually! I just wanted to look cute and intimidating at the same time for once. Admit it: you totally respected my authority for a moment there. I guess I oughta give it back. I'm not sure this adorable little gal appreciates me taking her stuff...

-

Thankfully Little Mandate let me off with a slap on the wrist, provided I don't take any of her belongings again. Too bad she didn't notice me totally stealing her swanky pink hat earlier. Hah! Anyway, her dapper little ensemble will be available in La Victoire until April 10th, 11:59 PM EST, so be sure to drop by soon and check it out! Otherwise she might have to take you into custody.

Uh oh, everyone. Did you guys hear that distant rumble? Looks like there's a storm a-brewin'! Judging by the clouds I'm guessing it's going to be a real doozy, too! What's that? You're saying it's a beautiful day with a bright blue sky, plenty of sunshine, and wee little birds whistling tunes at one another? Well, yeah! Of course! But I'm not talking about that weather -- I'm talking about the upcoming monsoon of treasure from Make It Rain, with bundles being offered at a whopping 30% discount!

That's right! With Make It Rain you'll be literally showered with gold! Simply open one up and see what kind of weather you get. Clear skies? Less gold. But if you're lucky you might earn yourself a hurricane of up to one billion gold! That's a rainy season I can get behind, even if I don't like getting wet! Just bring an umbrella -- I know those gold pieces landing on your head can hurt a little. Make It Rain will be in the shop until April 4th, 11:59 PM EST, so be sure to drop by soon and check it out!

04 EI Report: The Cocklebur King and M's Sketchbook
Good Friday, science lovers! Alas, this was a slower week than usual for academic progress. I'm afraid I accidentally released a potent, gaseous sleep drug into our air vents. Normally it's used to help sedate some of the more... troublesome experiments we have lurking in the dark halls of the Evolving Item Labs, but somebody -- I won't say who, but it rhymes with "Bonny" and starts with a D -- switched my vials! I'm still trying to find my Magic Productivity Serum, by the way. Hmph. Well, even if I didn't get as much work done as I might have liked, our Evolving Items are still as incredibly engaging as ever! We have amazing evolutions from The Cocklebur King and M's Sketchbook, so let's take a look!

-

The Cocklebur King: Harte was terrified, but he still chased his husband into the forest. He tracked him even when the canid's human form faded, and the only signs were cracked twigs and claw marks. The man soon realized he was not likely to find his lover, and even if he did, the man he loved was now a fearsome creature without remorse, and might devour him more quickly than he remembered him.

So he bowed his head and begged the god of the wilds for help. He begged her to bring his husband back to him.

M's Sketchbook: “No, no. I’m keeping the glasses.” Leaning to see the sketches of what she’s talking about, you can faintly hear the muffled static of the person on the other end, although the conversation remained one-sided. “They are staying. That’s final, I won’t take them out. Yeah, the sweater’s cute, isn’t it? Haha, I have a huge thing for oversized sweaters.” Raising your brow at that statement, you smirk at the sweater she wore. It's so big it completely dwarfs her already petite size, the sleeves covering well beyond her own arms. “’Heh.” At your laugh, she turns her head, a look of suspicion on her face. “Dude, there’s some creeper behind me. No, I don’t know when they sneaked up. Ewh. I don’t know, they’re laughing to themself.” Not so subtly, she moves a few inches away from you. Ouch, that actually hurt...

Unfortunately that's all the time we have for this week, but I can already tell we've got some exciting evolutions ahead of us! Be sure to check out these gorgeous EIs in La Victoire when you have the chance, and don't forgot to vote in our Weekly EI Poll. See you next Friday, Gaians!

05 Think it's your lucky day? Score some gold with Lucky Spin!
Whoa guys. I'm feelin' a little dizzy right now, you know? I've been watching this roulette wheel spinning all day and I think it's starting to make me a little nauseous. But it's just so hypnotizing! I can't stop! I'm enthralled by watching that tiny little ball bounce around, all the red and black squares, anguish of defeat, the thrill of winning -- I can see why people get into these things! If nothing else I bet it'd be great for making your friends think they're chickens. Admittedly I already tried it on Cygnus and it didn't really work, but I'm never one to be deterred by a few small failures! Anyway, long story short: roulette is pretty awesome. Would anyone else like to give it a try? You're sure to win tons of great gold if you do!

With Lucky Spin you just give the wheel a whirl and see what you get! Who knows? You might even win up to 500 million gold! Pretty sweet, right? You'd be a high roller for sure! Lucky Spin is in the shop until April 6th, 11:59 PM EST, so drop by soon if you wanna see if fortune favors you!

05 Limited Quantity Item: Lively Stroll
Wow! It's such a lovely day outside, wouldn't you say? Sun is shining, birds are all a-twitter -- it really seems like we've finally left the cold, dank winter behind us. Personally I think it's the absolutely perfect day for a nap. But, admittedly, I think every day is the perfect day for a nap. Cygnus actually went outside the shop, though! Said he found the weather "invigorating" and that he wanted to go for a walk outside. Which got me thinking! Perhaps it was time for...

-

A Lively Stroll! I mean, sure. I didn't actually go outside. Instead I stayed in and crafted this beautiful recolor! Worth it, don't you think? You can pick it up now in La Victoire, where it'll be available until April 13th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. If you happen to be strollin' on by the shop, maybe you oughta drop in!

05 Project NPC Apprentice: Double chances of finding a ticket!
Huh -- I guess Cygnus is a little more eager to get out of work than I originally expected. Pretty sure I saw him sneaking some extra Emerald Tickets into some of these bags! It looks like from now until it leaves the shop tonight, 11:59pm EST, you'll have double the chance of finding a rare ticket inside Project NPC Apprentice!

With Project NPC Apprentice you could win up to 1 billion gold or amazing items like Azrael's Wings, Kanoko's Nightmares, or even an Angelic Halo. But that's not even the best part! I've also tucked away a few rare Emerald Tickets. These tickets are super, duper special -- redeeming a ticket allows you to become an apprentice in the store of your choice for a month!

05 Lucky Spin Bundles now available at 20% off!
Darn! I thought I was finally going to be able to successfully hypnotize Cygnus once and for all. I caught him staring at the roulette wheel earlier as if in a trance, but it turned out he was just "so bored [he] was catatonic" or something along those lines. I don't know, I kind of tune him out when he gets into those kinds of moods. Well, no harm in trying, right? And there certainly isn't any harm in you trying our fabulous Lucky Spin, especially since it's 20% off until April 5th, 11:59 PM EST!

With Lucky Spin you just give the wheel a whirl and see what you get! Who knows? You might even win up to 500 million gold! Pretty sweet, right? You'd be a high roller for sure! Lucky Spin is in the shop until April 6th, 11:59 PM EST, so drop by soon if you wanna see if fortune favors you!

05 Limited Quantity Item: Standby Roundabout
Hmph! This guy thinks he's super tough. Who does he think he's really winning over with his awesome flashy style and impressive biceps? Whatever! I've got muscles to flex! I'm cool! I mean -- hang on, hang on. Wait. I gotta get into position. Okay, give me a sec, and... There! See? See that bulging bicep? You totally do, right? ... Right? Sigh. I guess not. Try as I might, I guess this new fella might be just slightly more impressive than me in the "tough guy" department. I mean, just lookit him!

-

Standby Roundabout doesn't take guff from no one. Even if I don't necessarily like him, I guess I gotta respect him a little. His stylish ensemble is available now in La Victoire and will be on sale until April 14th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. Drop by soon before he gets even angrier!

05 Workshop Shelby now available in La Victoire!
Spring's officially here and you all know what that means, don't you? Fun, springtime-y colors! Man, I'm feelin' dainty and fresh as a wee little posy swimming on a bed of sunshine! Why? 'Cause that's how this adorable new recolor makes me feel! Just see for yourself if you don't believe me:

-

Workshop Shelby looks like she ought to be cheerfully skipping through a meadow full of bright flowers! But, instead, she's up on our shelves, lookin' cute as a gosh darn button. Frankly, I think it's the better alternative! You can try on this colorful ensemble right here in La Victoire, where it'll be on sale until April 11th, 11:59 PM EST, along with the equally lovely Workshop Flora Bundle with the original and previous recolor. Hope to see you there soon!

05 Luxurious Diana now available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: All right. Uh -- hi, Gaians. I guess you could say I'm a man on a mission today. Mostly because I heard Jet refer to me as an "irascible sulk monkey" in conversation the other day. To be honest, I'm kind of surprised he knows some words I don't. So after I looked 'em up in the dictionary and realized he was kind of digging at me, I... Y'know. Got annoyed. I toyed with a few ideas to have my revenge but I figured the best way to do it was to show him I'm not irascible, or sulking, or a monkey. So, uh. I guess what I chose to do was... Well, here, lemme show you:

-

See? I made it bright, and colorful. That'll show Jet... Right? Hmm. Maybe I should've thought this through a little more. I mean, Luxurious Diana looks great. I'm not worried about that. I'm just not sure Jet is going to notice. Ugh. You know what? Nevermind. I'm just going to go in my room and lie down and -- and NOT sulk. Maybe. I don't know. Um. Anyway, I did work really hard on this particular piece -- bright colors are not normally my thing -- so if you wanna check it out, it'll be in the shop until April 11th, 11:59 PM EST. Just don't bug me. I'm in a pretty bad mood right now.

But I'm still not irascible!

06 Cutie Catcher back in La Victoire with bundles 30% off!
Okay guys, I think I've figured it out. The Cutie Catcher gets its amazing prophecy powers from a central demonic core, placed there by Beelzebub himself. What proof do I have? Well... None, admittedly. But I'm almost positive! That means Rina must be in cahoots with the forces of evil. I knew it! I always suspected she was a little too sweet and nice for her own good! Oh wait, hang on. Cygnus is giving me a funny look. He's insisting that the Cutie Catcher is just a normal piece of paper, and that I'm just "falling victim to my overactive imagination" -- as if! Well, there is one thing I know for certain. This Cutie Catcher is, in fact, full of amazing prizes! Here, see for yourself:

With Cutie Catcher you just pick your color and learn your fortune! Not only that, but you also get to choose whether you want a hefty bag of gold -- you could even win up to one billion gold! -- or fabulous items like Bound Warlock or an Angelic Halo! And, of course, you'll discover the many mysteries of your future... And to make things extra special, we're offering bundles of Cutie Catcher at a whopping 30% discount! Be sure to check it out by tonight, April 6th, 11:59pm EST when this amazing piece of complex machinery leaves La Victoire! See you around, Gaians!

07 Win an amazing prize or tons of gold with Fairy Tales!
Huh. Y'know, I found a whole bunch of musty old books in our cellar a little while ago, and reading them over I'm... Kind of confused? I think they're old fairy tales, but if I'm being perfectly honest I don't remember any tale I ever read being quite like these! Are these like weird knockoff fairy tales? Do those exist, even? What the heck is going on here? And how did they even end up in my cellar to begin with? ... In fact, when did we get a cellar? This is all looking mighty suspicious, guys. But I will say there is one cool thing about these books: each one is bookmarked with prizes, just like the ones you see here!

-

Fairy Tale might be kind of a weird story, but the rewards it contains are no joke! Read your fable and you'll be rewarded with a marvelous choice: choose items and you could win fabulous sets like Nefarious Queen of Solair or Hook's Cruelty, choose gold and you could win up to one billion gold! Now that's what I call a happy ending. Check it out now in La Victoire, where it'll be in the shop until April 8th, 11:59 PM EST. Just avoid houses made of candy along the way!

Anyway, I totally stumbled across this website full of slang from the 1920s and I'm trying to inject it into pretty much every conversation I have. Whaddayah guys think? I'm real subtle about it. But this lady here? She ain't subtle! Her bright colors are nothing if not eye-catching. Fix your peepers on this, folks!

07 Get April's AC for 30% off until April 8th, 11:59 PM EST!
Amazing news, Gaians! It appears that I've received a 30% refund on my latest tax filing—I submit them on a weekly basis, you see, as I do so enjoy filling out all the paperwork—and so I've decided to pass those amazing savings on to you! Since I'm currently loaded down with precious green, I'm offering April's Advance Chance at a 30% discount until April 8, 11:59 PM EST!

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the April Advance Chance. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

I've given this one a quite thorough shaking and I can tell by the rattling I'm hearing inside that there have been a few interesting changes! It appears that some old items that have gone below a certain value have been removed to make way for other items, giving you a higher chance to receive new items! I also only see one Advance Chance box—I guess we're only having one Chance Item this month! And I must say, some of these boxes are rattling a little more loudly than others. My guess is that this month's Chance Item offers double prizes for getting to the victory stage! That means you'll receive two items for every victory instead of just one. Although I'm uncertain whether that is tax deductible or not, so be wary. Remember that this discount ends April 8, 11:59 PM EST! Enjoy your lovely week, everyone.

08 Cash Shop Update: Somber Speakeasy Bundle
Ah, the opulent life of a bootlegger. No doubt it's nothing but swanky parties, bathtub gin, gals with great gams performing the charleston on the dance floor, ditchin' the fuzz whenever they crept up on you... I tell ya, it really seems like the life for me! I bet a clever kitten like myself would've done well back in those days. Maybe I could've been a grumpy accountant! Or some sort of newsboy informant, complete with obligatory cute pageboy cap! Aww man, I would have looked totally awesome in one of those. Oh well. I might be as old as space itself, but unfortunately I wasn't even aware Gaia was a blip in the universe when the '20s were roarin' through! Doesn't mean I can't appreciate some of their fabulous art deco couture, however. So I set up this swanky bundle, filled with gorgeous tributes to that bygone era! Let's check out the Somber Speakeasy Bundle together, shall we?

-

Dapper Bootlegger: Stylish, debonair, and more than a little dangerous. The Dapper Bootlegger always plays it cool no matter how grisly the situation gets. A word to the wise: don't get in his way. Includes his cream-colored fedora, suspicious eyes, undone waistcoat, pinstriped shirt, concealed weapon, and maybe more evidence on his snazzy work pants than would be appropriate in a public setting.

Goldie the Flapper: She might seem all sweetness and light on the outside, but Goldie is far from your average gal. The Dapper Bootlegger's partner in crime, she manages the speakeasy and handles the business side of things. Is she as brutally ruthless as her partner? A good question... Includes her sequined headpiece, short blonde bob, beaded fringe dress, dancing legs fitted with stockings and garterbelts, and beaded pendant necklace.

Josephine the Cheetah: Fierce and fabulous, this beautiful cream-colored cheetah is the Dapper Bootlegger's prized pet. Includes three graceful poses, her art-deco collar, and your own pair of ears with a matching tail.

Available exclusively in the Somber Speakeasy Bundle is the Rousing Lounge! A dimly lit speakeasy where the partners-in-crime meet potential clients. Includes a long smoky pipe, embellished fur stole, gold accented clutch, and a decorated singer's stage.

I can practically hear the scintillating jazz from here! Or maybe Cygnus is playing one of his weird records again. Either way, this bundle is a real knockout! Definitely drop by La Victoire soon to check it out. Just don't tell any coppers!

Anyone else here looking for their fairy tale ending? Then look no further, my little Hansels and Gretels! Because this Fairy Tale is... Huh. It's ending. I'm not really sure where I was going with this. Well, anyway, I've sold a bunch of these weird books so it seems like Fairy Tales will be out of the shop soon! So I'll be holding a nifty little sale until it's gone: 40% off Fairy Tale bundles until April 8th, 11:59 PM EST!

Fairy Tale might be kind of a weird story, but the rewards it contains are no joke!

08 Limited Quantity Item: Foxy March
Looks like we've got an adorable new recolor that really marches to the beat of its own... fox? Wait, how does that work? I'm not entirely sure. But hey! Orange you glad to see this cute, foxy item? Eh? Eh? No, don't worry. You'll get it soon. Enough with my amazing puns, let's just take a look!

-

What does the Foxy March say? It's truly a mystery. But you know what isn't? How gosh darn cute this outfit is! I'd cuddle that foxy balloon if I weren't afraid of my terrifyingly sharp claws popping it. Oh well! It's available now in La Victoire, where it'll be on sale until April 17th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. Why not visit La Victoire and see if it strikes your foxy? Err -- I mean fancy! Lookin' forward to it, guys!

08 The seal is weakening on April's Advance Chance!
My goodness! What a storm outside. It's all but raining cats and dogs! Oh, wait. Is that... No, no. Sorry, it was just an actual dog running down the street. I'm almost 80% certain that he was not actually rained down from the sky. Darn! That would've been fascinating. Anyway, it does appear that the thunderstorm is starting to let up a little. Is that a patch of clear sky I see in the distance? And—gasp! Brilliant hues! Vibrant shades! An actual rainbow? Usually we don't see actual weather phenomena down in Gaia's gray industrial sector, so this has been a very strange day overall! Gracious, I feel like I could stare at it for ages. I just find myself wondering, you know? What does it mean?

Oh, but would you look at that! It seems that all this inclement weather has loosened the seal on this month's Advance Chance!

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the April Advance Chance. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

How fabulous! That rainbow must have been a fortuitous sign, my friends. And it couldn't have come at a better time, as April's Advance Chance is still being offered at 30% off! Oh dear—it seems the rainbow has seeped into my text a little! How odd! Well, please visit La Victoire if you'd like to pick up an Advance Chance before they fully open! Also, I do believe we'll be saying a fond farewell to March's CIs come shortly, so be sure to snatch up a few of those before they leave La Victoire if you'd like. Enjoy, everyone!

08 Fairy Tale now available in 32 and 64 packs bundles!
Guess what, Gaians? Turns out if you stack a lot of books together it makes them more convenient to carry! All this time I've been doing it wrong... Who knew? I'd feel embarrassed if I had any real concept of shame. Anyway, with this amazing new knowledge, I've created new Fairy Tales (32 Pack) and Fairy Tales (64 Pack) bundles, which is perfect since I'm currently holding a sale on 'em! That's right: you get 40% off Fairy Tale bundles until April 8th, 11:59 PM EST!

Fairy Tale might be kind of a weird story, but the rewards it contains are no joke!

08 Madame Knightingale now available in La Victoire!
Y'know, I don't normally picture regal noblewomen riding out into the heat of battle, but something about this new recolor... I could almost believe it, you know? Something about her just seems tough! Maybe it's all the bright colors, or her impressive armored finery. Either way, I'm not sure I'd ever want to encounter her on the battlefield! I defeat my enemies through subterfuge, not brute strength. But I secretly suspect this unusual gal is a master of both...

-

Madame Knightingale is as chivalrous as they come, but I'd suggest against underestimating her. Something tells me she's handier with a blade than she lets on! Her gorgeous outfit is available now in La Victoire, and will be in the shop until April 14th, 11:59 PM EST. Why not see if her ensemble makes you feel more empowered? If nothing else I bet it'll make you feel like kicking some butt!

08 Flynn's Plunder updated with fabulous "high roller" items!
Aha! I just intercepted a vessel from the Heeltoenians, wealthy hotel magnates from the planet Celebutaint! After relieving them of all their worldly possessions, I allowed them the opportunity to take their ship and fly back home—provided they took a vow of poverty first. Those guys are some real jerks! But hey, it's nothing a little light piracy can't solve, right? So I'm now loaded down with these super expensive items! Of course, I don't really have much use for them. But if you're interested in exchanging your precious gold for my Angelic Halo, Thank You Letter for June 2003, or other rare and beautiful goods... Well! Why not drop by my amazing Plunder and make your bid? With the bidding cap on the Marketplace now lifted, you'll be able to toss way more than one billion gold my way! So I'm expecting to see some real heated battles, okay? Visit Flynn's Plunder soon and let's get this bidding underway!

08 Wendy's Promise and Wendy's Love now in La Victoire!
Was there ever more swell a gal than Wendy? I mean, that girl could do all sorts of crazy things. Control a group of irritating children, read books, sew shadows -- I mean, what kind of insane wizardry is that? But here on Gaia, I happen to think that Wendy is best known for her sweet, girlish fashion. And now it's available in a wider array of colors! We've got two new Wendy recolors to look at, so let's take a little peek, shall we?

-

Wendy's Love and Wendy's Promise feature all of the lovely gal's greatest traits, as well as sporting some beautiful hues! They're available now in La Victoire along with the Wendy's Return Bundle, which includes the original and all recolors of this dainty item! Why not sprinkle on some pixie dust and fly over? They're only going to be in the shop until April 14th, 11:59 PM EST before they return back to Neverland.

08 Fairy Tale leaves La Victoire soon!
We're almost at the end of our story, folks! Did we all learn a good morality lesson? I hear that's what these fairy tales usually need to end with. I learned not visit the cellar anymore if I can avoid it! From now on that'll be Cygnus' job. It's way too creepy down there, and I keep tripping over books! So with all our lessons learned, it seems we oughta end this chapter on a high note. That's why we're still offering bundles of Fairy Tales for a 40% off discount until April 8th, 11:59 PM EST!

Fairy Tale might be kind of a weird story, but the rewards it contains are no joke! Read your fable and you'll be rewarded with a marvelous choice: choose items and you could win fabulous sets like Nefarious Queen of Solair or Hook's Cruelty, choose gold and you could win up to one billion gold! Now that's what I call a happy ending. Check it out now in La Victoire, where it'll be in the shop until April 8th, 11:59 PM EST. Be on the lookout for any giants or ogres before you visit!

09 Rediscover your lost inspiration with Vivid Harmony!
Oh, Gaians! The unbridled anguish I feel right now! But first, I suppose, a little background. You all know I took a painting class a while back, right? I was handed a coupon by a dear friend of mine, and since I'm never one to let an opportunity to learn something for cheap pass me by... Well, you can imagine the rest. I've taken up painting and never stopped! I belong to a school of artists known as "abstract digit painters" -- we are artists who paint digits with our digits! Meaning I mostly fingerpaint numbers. Sure, it's not a very popular movement yet, but I think given time it'll be huge. But there's a big problem, Gaians: artist block. I can't think of what to paint! Should I scrawl a vibrantly red 100 on my canvas? Or perhaps a softer, pastel-hued 7? Augh, but both those ideas sound terrible! I'm completely uninspired. Is anyone else here suffering as I am? I sympathize with you, believe me. Isn't artist block just awful?

You know, I do wonder if a visit from the friendly Muses of Color might jog my brain a little. Do you think it's possible to summon their Vivid Harmony? They're awfully unpredictable about who they pay attention to! It could be me -- but it could also be you. And who knows? Perhaps if you meet them, you'll walk away with a Cash Shop favorite, a valuable rare, or one of these amazing new exclusives.

-

Oh please, Muses of Color! I may have been a little flippant about your visits in the past, but help me and my Gaian friends find our misplaced inspiration! Do you think they heard our plea? I know that the Muse of Rainbows is a generous gal, as I've heard she gives you two victory items instead of just one... I hope she'll come help us! I'm going to go lie down and see if I get any flashes of brilliance in my dreams. I suggest you do the same -- but after checking out Vivid Harmony in La Victoire! Who knows? Perhaps you'll get so inspired you'll even pick up a a bundle of nine! Good luck, everyone.

Get Inspired!

09 Cutie Catcher now available in a 64 pack bundle!
Aha! Due to the strange powers of the cosmos, I've amassed a new bundle of psychically predictive energies into an amazing wormhole of fortune telling prowess! Or, to put it a little more simply, Cutie Catcher is now available in a 64 pack bundle! Yeah, I think that makes a little more sense.

With Cutie Catcher you just pick your color and learn your fortune! Not only that, but you also get to choose whether you want a hefty bag of gold -- you could even win up to one billion gold! -- or fabulous items like Bound Warlock or an Angelic Halo! And, of course, you'll discover the many mysteries of your future... What could possibly be better?

09 Beautiful new Juno's Lace recolors in La Victoire!
I'm in a super colorful mood Gaians! Maybe it's all the rumors I hear about certain rainbow-inclined spirits visiting people... Either way, I definitely think it's time for some vivid hues! So I took it upon myself to repaint an already beautiful item in all the colors of the rainbow -- or, at least, a few of my favorite shades. Let's take a look!

-

Ceres' Lace, Venus' Lace, Diana's Lace, and Hestia's Lace are so vibrant and beautiful I can barely take it! Am I a wonder with the brush or not? Nah. I totally am. 'Cause let's face it, these bright beauties are a real knockout! You can find 'em right here in La Victoire, along with the amazing All the Lace Bundle, which includes every single recolor plus the lovely original Juno's Lace! They'll be in the shop until April 15th, 11:59 PM EST, so drop by if you wanna see these gorgeous goddesses!

10 Win tons of gold or great items with Secret Admirer!
Jet: Ohoho, Gaians. Have I got some interesting news for you! Don't tell anyone I told you this, but the rumor is... You've got a secret admirer! Yes, all of you! Every single Gaian out there. Man, if that doesn't make you feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside, I don't know what will. And --

Cygnus: Jet, for crying out loud. You know that's not true. Look, what he actually did was browbeat a bunch of the other shopkeepers into picking flowers and writing little notes for him, because he's bossy like that. And he didn't even ask me. Hmph.

Jet: Well thank you for interrupting, Captain Party Pooper. I was just trying to make all the Gaians feel as special as they deserve!

Cygnus: I could write a note you know. You never asked.

Jet: Okay, I don't have time for this. ANYWAY, before I was so rudely interrupted by my newly ex-sidekick, you all have secret admirers! And I've got the bouquets and the amazing prizes to prove it. Just take a look!

With Secret Admirer you'll not only receive a lovely flower and a card from one of your favorite NPCs, you'll also get gold or a valuable item! You could win up to one billion gold or gorgeous sets like Rookie Love or Love Fox! Isn't that romantic? These pretty flowers only stay fresh for a while, though, so this item leaves the shop April 11th, 11:59 PM EST. Drop by La Victoire and pick one up to see who has a crush on you!

10 Limited Quantity Item: Spiritual Fist
Hyah! Hah! Kapow! Oh -- sorry, I didn't see you there! I was just practicing my kitten karate. Ever heard of it? Yeah, y'know, I'm pretty much the greatest practitioner of kitten karate out there. I'm like, a fiftieth degree sparkly purple belt. 'Course, I'm also the only cat out there who, you know, performs kitten karate. But that just makes me more special, don't you think? I mean, look at this impressive kick! HIYAH! Yeah, that's right. If I had wanted to I could've totally bruised your shinbone. Maybe. If your skin was particularly soft and tender. Anyway, I've been getting tips from this brand new Limited Quantity Item, who is a real pro at this martial arts thing! Here, see for yourself:

-

Spiritual Fist is tough as nails, but still manages to be super cute! Just don't make her angry. I saw her punch through a wall earlier when it turned out I'd eaten the last of the cereal. Even Cygnus seemed a little intimidated. Anyway, you can nab her outfit now in La Victoire! It'll be on sale until April 19th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. Why not pay us a visit? I might even let you into my cat dojo if I like you enough!

10 Perfect your look with Striking Features!
Look, I'm gonna come right out and say it: not everyone can be as eye catchingly amazing as I am. And that's okay! It's hard for people to stand out from the crowd when they lack my beautiful, sparkling fur. Personally I think the reason why Cygnus is so surly all the time is because he just doesn't shimmer like I do -- but let's keep that between you and me, all right? I guess what I'm trying to say is that I sympathize with the Gaians everywhere who struggle to be noticed. I mean, I may not suffer that plight, but I feel you anyway. Which is why I've created this amazing new item! It's loaded with tons of colorful hairs and eyes -- even wings! Here, see for yourself!

-

With Striking Features you'll have no problem finding the perfect item to complete your new amazing look! It's filled with recolors of popular SDPlus Dolls' unique poses, like the lovely Light Fallen Star Locks or Tia's Dark Wings! You'll be sure to turn heads with those, believe me. You might even come close to rivaling me in awesomeness! Why not drop by La Victorie and check it out?

10 Limited Quantity Item: Energetic Stroll
Anyone up for going on a cheerful walk with me? A brisk jog? A happy saunter? No? Anyone? Well, all right then. But it's your loss! It's just such a lovely day out that I don't much see the point in spending it all cooped up in the shop, you know? I mean, that's what Cygnus is for. He never seems to want to go outside anyway! He likes to say that warm spring mornings give him hives. Know what I think? I think he's pulling my paw. Anyway, the weather outside is so nice that, no matter what you say, I think I'm gonna go for...

-

An Energetic Stroll! Although, alas, I won't be wearing these fancy digs. They're not in kitty cat size, I'm afraid. But they're perfect for Gaians looking to turn heads as they mosey down the sidewalk! This gorgeous recolor will be in La Victoire until April 19th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. Why not pay us a visit and try it on?

11 Looking to win tons of gold? Try Golden Spin!
So, it turns out the reason Cygnus was so intrigued by the roulette wheel last time we had it in the shop was because he wanted to try building one of his own. I guess he likes making stuff? At least he likes making mechanical, spinny things. I don't know, to each his own I guess. Either way, he's created this brand new roulette wheel that he swears I absolutely can't use to hypnotize my enemies! That remains to be seen. What I do know about this amazing device is that it gives out tons of gold!

With Golden Spin you just spin the wheel and let the gold come! You could win up to 500 million gold, so why not give it a whirl? It'll be in the shop until April 12th, 11:59pm EST, so drop by La Victoire soon to check it out!

11 Lavender Artemis now available in La Victoire!
Well, would you look at that! Seems like Artemis has climbed down from her tree in the heavens, and she brought with her a fabulous new ensemble! Who would have predicted her dress would have looked so cute in purple? ... Actually, Cygnus probably did. But he's weird in that the thinks everything looks better in purple. Anyway, she and Cygnus are having a little tea party right now, I think. Well, more like she begged and pleaded until he agreed, and he just sort of gave up to get her to stop annoying him. Ain't that adorable! Anyway, she made sure to bring tons of extras of all her pretty dresses, so let's take a look!

-

Her newest addition, Lavender Artemis, is just so cute you can barely stand it! I think that color would look great on me, personally -- maybe Cygnus was on to something with this "purple is perfect" thing. We've also got the Artemis Collection bundle, which features every single Artemis outfit to date! Now that'll put some real stars in your eyes. They're available until April 17th, 11:59 PM EST right here in La Victoire! Now if you'll excuse me, I do believe Artemis wants me to join that tea party. Besides, it's fun watching Cygnus try to be dainty. See ya soon!

11 Voila! New fabulous backwings available in Loyal's Bazaar!
Ah, Gaians! You've caught me at a most fortunate time. You see, I was experimenting with a little bit of color magic. You've heard of black magic, I'm sure? I know. It's terribly dull. Bunch of cultists wearing hoods and chanting—ugh. I've been to more interesting tax briefings with Ivan. There are other colorful magics out there, though. In fact, I've been fortunate enough to have a few encounters with the mysterious Muses of Color themselves. Of course I'm not lacking in inspiration! But I did ask them a few questions about their abilities, and for the most part they seemed happy to share their wisdom. I applied a few of their tricks to some feathery and leathery backwings, and—well, now I've created the vividly beautiful display you see before you!

-

C'est magnifique, non? I'm really starting to wonder if there is anything I can't do. I'll let you know when—or if—I ever encounter an actual challenge. In the meantime, here are all the gorgeous new wings I've created:


 * • Penemue's Wings
 * • Thrones' Wings
 * • Moroni's Wings
 * • Haborym's Wings
 * • Botis' Wings
 * • Gorgon's Wings

You can find them all right here in my newly opened Bazaar, alongside all my other incredible wares. Care to visit? I'm certain you do. Drop by soon—provided you've got your ticket, that is.

11 Dragoon of Lalune now available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: The latest expansion pack for the Revolution series just came out. It's... y'know. Pretty good. But I still find myself going to the old content a lot. It's nostalgic or something. I guess. Or maybe the boss encounters are just more fun. Especially now that you don't need a forty man raid to clear it... I can pretty much solo them by now. Anyway, y'know. Out of respect, I figured I oughta recolor one of those bosses from patches past -- show 'em they're still good, even with the new ones out and about. Here, let me show you:

-

The Dragoon of Lalune looks pretty refined in all that silver, huh? Maybe they should have made her look like that in-game. I dunno.

11 EI Report: The Cocklebur King and M's Sketchbook
Happy Friday, junior scientists! Are you all as excited as I am for this week's report? I mean, as much as I dabble in the Megalomaniacal Sciences, I always find myself returning back to my love for Evolving Items. It'd obivously be great to create some sort of giant mechanical monstrosity that levels cities at my command, but will it really make me feel as fulfilled as seeing an Evolving Item reach its stunning finale? Well, I guess I won't know for another few years -- my robot is still in the prototyping stage. That said, we've got some really wonderful evolutions to study tonight! Let's take a closer look at The Cocklebur King and M's Sketchbook, shall we?

-

The Cocklebur King: The god of the wilds would not normally come to man, but she came to him, if only because she was curious. She said it would not work, for she had changed the beast into a man once, and it proved it could not change its nature. Harte paused, and then requested that she instead turn him into a beast. He explained that he was not just a hunter, but also a soldier, a killer of men -- perhaps his nature was not so different from the beast's after all. The god of the wilds refused. Harte persisted that the canid had told him what he was when they met, and had never lied or hidden it from him. The canid had even shared his secret name, the names that all beasts of the old woods guarded from humans. That was why Harte loved him above all others. He simply could never love another.

M's Sketchbook: Teetering on your heels, you take a step closer while she’s busy talking. “They’re not random! I just doodle what I like, and I like these. Accessories are good. There’s never enough of them anyway.” Okay, so far so good. She doesn't seem to notice your approach, allowing you to see these ‘random accessories’. Oh, you can see why the other party calls them random. A hat, some pin, and gloves? “Leave me alone!” Her outburst scares you. Staggering away, you soon realize she’s not talking to you. Whew. “It’s similar 'cause I want it to be versatile. I mean, it's hard to wear those cute gloves in every outfit when there’s a huge balloon stuck to the back. Duh.”

Unfortunately that's all the time we have for this week, but be sure to check out these gorgeous EIs in La Victoire when you have the chance! And don't forgot to vote in our Weekly EI Poll for your favorite EI and make your opinions known. See you next Friday, Gaians!

12 Win oodles of gold with Make It Hurricane!
Get out your umbrellas and rainslickers, ladies and gents, 'cause it looks like we're in for the storm of the century! Or at least the storm of the decade. The month? Okay, Cygnus keeps looking at me funny. Storm of the week, I guess. Man, why are you so grumpy, you big lug? Why do you hate my hyperbole? He never lets me have any fun. Anyway, there's a definite storm lookin' to blow through the shop, and it's bringing with it tons of gold!

12 Limited Quantity Item: Absolute Damsel
I'm absolutely positive that this gorgeous new recolor is a incredible stunner! Even Cygnus seemed a little flabbergasted around her. Something about her colors "looking like Rosamund's" and how he'd maybe imagined this outfit for her before? I don't know. I try not to unlock the mysteries of Cygnus' mind, 'cause I suspect they're way scarier than I'm equipped to deal with. Anyway, let's reveal this new fabulous beauty!

-

Absolute Damsel will win you over with her radiantly raspberry hues, I'm sure! Better check her out now -- she's destined to depart April 21st, 11:59 PM EST or possibly even sooner if she sells out! Why not visit the shop before she floats away for good? See you soon, I hope!

12 Cash Shop Update: The Lotus and The Shadow Bundle
I guess all my practicing of kitten karate has awakened in me a passionate interest in ninjas! After all, they're masters of subterfuge, hand to hand combat, all sorts of crazy ninja skills... Believe it! I know I sure do. I mean, is there anything honestly more totally hardcore than a ninja sneaking around with a bunch of sharp knives and just kicking butt left and right? Anyway, I was doing some reading on the subject -- that's right, I do my research! -- when I came across a particular legend about two rival ninjas locked in a deadly courtship. I was so inspired by their story that I created a gorgeous bundle based on it! Let's take a look at The Lotus and The Shadow Bundle together, shall we?

-

Night's Shadow: A high-ranking ninja in his clan, the Night's Shadow cloaks himself in darkness before he strikes at his hapless victim. Having focused solely on his training for the past fifteen years, he thought he had rid himself of all emotion... But perhaps not as effectively as he had thought. Instantly entranced by the Evening Lotus' beauty, it appears he is ready to let his guard down. Could this be love blossoming within his icy heart? Includes his hooded cover, black scarf, shinobi robe, cloth-tied belt, ashen hair, dagger-wielding arms, and poised stance.

Evening Lotus: The powerful heiress of a family of shinobis, the Evening Lotus specializes in secrecy and seduction. Her beauty is not her only weapon, however, as she is notoriously deadly with her fans. Her family has long been the rivals of the Night Shadow's clan, with assassinations and bloodshed between the two families becoming increasingly common. Was their chance encounter truly an accident? Are her feelings for the Night's Shadow pure, or does the Evening Lotus have a more sinister agenda? Includes her elegant hairpiece, dual-equippable fans, kimono top, long flowing sleeves, obi belt, geta sandals, and dark updo hairstyle.

Available exclusively in The Shadow and the Lotus Bundle is Aika's Garden! A peaceful garden full of fragrant flowers, where longtime rivalries can finally be put aside. Or can they? Includes the scenic garden where they met, geisha face makeup, graceful parasol, and long embroidered robe.

Spiffy, am I right? I wonder how their story ends... Truthfully, I was too nervous to actually finish it! I want them to get married or something, thus ending the rivalry between their clans, but I'm not confident either of them were headed for a happy ending. But aren't their sets something spectacular? They'll be available in La Victoire for a while yet, so drop by soon to check 'em out -- before they fade back into the shadows!

12 That's not an illusion... It's a Collectible Mirage!
What's that shimmering in the distance? It's hard to make it out... Is it a scenic oasis, complete with palm tree and perfectly clear pool of water? No, that's not it. Wait, it's becoming a little easier to see. It's... It's... a creepy rainbow box! GAH! PUT IT BACK! Are those tendrils coming out of it? Jeesh! So weird. I don't think it's malicious, though, and you know what they say about curiosity and cats: that everything always works out and we kitties never suffer any ill consequences! So I guess a quick peek couldn't hurt...

-

Oh wow! It looks like it's a treasure trove of beautiful Monthly Collectible recolors! I see an Attitude Schoolboy, a Dedicated Spica, a Twilight Spirit -- amazing! I'm positively astounded! You guys have just got to come by and see this, believe me. I'm almost 90% sure this chest isn't evil! Come visit the shop soon and see for yourself. You won't regret it! (Probably.)

15 Score some colorful items or gold with Rainbow of Rewards!
Y'know, with all the rain we've been having lately, it only makes sense that we'd see a rainbow eventually. I mean, it has to happen, right? Aren't rainbows contractually obligated to appear after a fierce rainstorm so that everyone complains about the weather a little less? But so far it's just been a big fat nothing! No colors arcing across the sky, no prismatic lights flickering in the clouds. Just rain, rain, and more rain. Well I'm fed up with it! I'm not gonna take this lying down, or sitting, or even standing! Nay, friends: instead, I shall create! I'll make my own rainbow, and it'll be the best one EVER 'cause it's going to have tons of amazing prizes just like these!

-

With Rainbow of Rewards you choose your favorite color -- red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet, and even pink 'cause my rainbow is that awesome -- and then wait for your reward! You could win up to two billion gold or great items like Sachiel's Wings or Solar Mage! That's better than any lame old pot of gold if you ask me. And the best part is that bundles of Rainbow of Rewards will be available for 20% off until April 15th, 11:59 PM EST! This rainbow fades away April 16th, 11:59 PM EST, so make sure you visit before this fortunate opportunity disappears!

15 Flynn's Plunder updated with adorable pets!
Gaians, today I am not only a pirate, but a liberator! That's right: I burst my way into an intergalactic zoo and took it upon myself to open up all the cages, thus freeing the animals locked inside!

17 Amazing new Michael's Wings recolors in La Victoire!
Last night, I had a dream that I sprouted (yes, like little seedlings sprouting from the ground before I step on them and shove them back into the ground) a pair of beautiful, glorious angel wings. Since it's only natural for me to want to break in whatever shiny new toy I have ASAP, I climbed to the top of my favorite tree and took an epic leap of faith. Unfortunately, I didn't know how to use my new wings, so I kind of crashed and burned. Who knew that cats weren't meant to fly? Bah, I say. Anyway, I was feelin' pretty inspired by this dream, so I made these ombre beauts for you guys:

-

Stunning right? Cygnus has always said that I have "an extremely active and ridiculous" imagination, so it's only natural that something dreamt up by my stellar mind would be this amazing. While I can't guarantee that your attempts to fly will work out better than mine, you'll at least look like a fashionable angel! Be sure to grab your own pair of Leilel's Wings, Lilith's Wings, Eve's Wings, and Qaphsiel's Wings from La Victoire while they're here!

17 Cash Shop Update: Stepmother's Jealousy Bundle
I was poking around at a garage sale the other day and ended up picking up this book filled with a ton of stories by some guy with the last name "Grimm". At first, I thought he has accidentally misspelled his last name by adding on an extra "m", but Cygnus says that it's correct as is. Eh. If the guys wants to have two of the same letter in his last name, it's cool man. Gotta include that extra emmphasis and all! Anyway, I opened the book to a random page and decided to read this story titled "The Juniper Tree" and... oh my goodness guys. This story is just so twisted that I just had to make the Stepmother's Jealousy Bundle to get all my feels out. Check it out!

-

Beneath the Juniper Tree: The son of a humble man, and the victim of a cruel stepmother's avarice. Includes his torn black scarf, dark red hair, icy blue eyes, dark jacket, swirling belt, and black trouser legs.

The Half-Sister: She never wished any ill will upon her half-brother, but when she asked him for an apple as her mother instructed, his head ended up falling off... Includes her dark hair, ribbon-tied shoes, layered skirts, bonnet, two-toned scarf, and arms full of apples.

Ominous Black Bird: The soul of the half-brother, rising from the bones buried beneath his mother's beloved Juniper Tree. Includes several poses with the ominous black bird and your own pair of small feathered black wings.

Available exclusively in the Stepmother's Jealousy Bundle is The Twisted Juniper! The greedy malice of a selfish stepmother, who cruelly beheaded her own stepson and fed him to his own father. Includes the tree at which the son's bones were buried and several bloody poses.

Wow. That's some pretty intense and dark stuff, isn't it? But at the same time, it's just so darn fascinating! Guys, I think I've found my newest favorite genre. This dark and brooding bundle will be in La Victoire, so be sure to check it out! Now... excuse me while I go wrangle my feels.

17 Project NPC Apprentice bundles now 20% off!
Man, we are just really hurting for help around here! Do you know what happened to our last intern? His name was Donny, and he was a huge pile of useless. Couldn't even work the cash register! Something about how it "only reacted to star people" and that it was "hard to work when I was napping on top of his arms" or whatever. That's just excuses for laziness! Anyway, I think he might be an assistant at Dr. Singh's EI Labs now, so I guess he still found work. But we shopkeepers are definitely looking for someone better! Who knows -- it could be you! Especially with bundles of Project NPC Apprentice now an enticing 20% off until tonight at 11:59pm EST!

With Project NPC Apprentice II you could win up to 2 billion gold or amazing items like Azrael's Wings, Kanoko's Nightmares, or even an Angelic Halo. But that's not even the best part!

Drop by La Victoire and check out Project NPC Apprentice! It'll be in the shop until April 18th, 11:59 PM EST. I can't wait to see who wins!

17 Vivid Harmony Bundle now 30% off!
Now that the tax filing season is officially over, I must confess that I have hit a slump of sorts. Abstract digit painting has been helping a bit, but I keep finding myself painting out the numbers on all the tax forms and it only makes me even more depressed. Form 1040, the W-2, the W-2G, the 1098 series... sigh. Wait... what is this? A coupon from Mr. Bibles' groomer offering a whole 30% off the next grooming session!? Wow! If there's anything that I at least moderately enjoy, it's discounts! Speaking of discounts, I think I feel a sale coming along! In celebration of this rare event, I'll be offering the Vivid Harmony Bundle (9 Pack) at a cool 30% off until April 18, 11:59pm EST in La Victoire!

18 Win some fun Easter treats or gold with Basket of Goodies!
Everyone knows Easter is an amazing holiday. Sure, there are lots of reasons why it's so great! But I bet you all know why I like it so much: the CANDY. The sweet, delicious candy! Piles of it! Mountains! Great towering heaps of chocolate shaped like adorable animals, or eggs filled with sour treats, or colorful jelly beans raining down from the sky! Ahh -- it's true bliss. 'Course, I've already gorged myself sick. I'm just taking a break right now! But Cygnus might have tripped over some errant egg cremes earlier and gave me a stern talking to (read: lecture) about how the last time I ate this much candy I ended up nearly rotting out all my teeth. So, in the interest of appeasing my most bestest friend (and biggest annoyance), I've made some baskets full of Easter treats for you to enjoy! But that's not all they've got. This is me we're talking about, after all! They're also loaded down with great prizes, just like the ones you see here:

-

With Basket of Goodies you pick your particular Easter sweet -- jelly beans, a chocolate rabbit, or an egg filled with candy -- and get your prize! Depending on what you pick it could be up to one billion gold or great items like Bunny Slippers or Bunny Brigade. Plus, you know, a whole bunch of candy. What could be sweeter? Drop by La Victoire soon, as these baskets hop away April 19th, 11:59 PM EST!

18 EI Report: M's Sketchbook, Bunnihilation & Cocklebur King
It's the end of the work week, Gaians, and you know what that means: vacation! That's right, I'm planning to head down to a pleasant little island managed by a gentleman by the name of... Dr. Moreau, I believe? I'm sure it'll be lovely. He's a doctor after all, and I've only heard marvelous things about him. Besides, it'll be nice to spend some time with a fellow scientist! We'll have tons to talk about. Anyway, Friday also brings with it more exciting evolutions from our intriguing Evolving Items! It looks like M's Sketchbook and Bunnihilation both evolved this week, and The Cocklebur King has finally achieved the pinnacle of its evolution!

-

M's Sketchbook: “Of course you love it, you’re not the one torturing yourself with all the curls.” She sighs deeply as her shoulders slouch. Curious as to what is dampening her mood, you find doodles of a silhouette with long curly hair before she flips to a top and bag. “Haha, I don’t know why I keep doing this either. Long hair is nice and all, but so annoying. I actually like short hair more. Oh no, already covered that. Ufufu, gotta love Agape.” What’s an agape? Before you can think on it, the most ridiculous thing came out of her mouth. “It’s a bookbag. A book bag. Get it?! Cause it’s literally a book in the shape of a bag!” And then she erupts into laughter. Girl, that was the lamest pun ever.

Bunnihilation: Easter is finally here, and it seems like you've stumbled on to something seasonally adorable! You've found a little chocolate bunny nestled in a basket full of flowers, with a matching cute yellow hairbow!

The Cocklebur King: The god of the wilds replied, "And how do you know you will still love him as an animal?" Harte replied confidently, "The canid, the maneater, the Cocklebur King, despite having been a wild thing without remorse, was able to love me with his animal heart. So maybe I would love him with mine." The god at last acquiesced, and made him a canid as well. The new animal quickly vanished into the forest, and she let it go, and thought not of it again, as gods are apt to do. Nature would decide the end of the story, and be the only witness as well, in the dense, dark underbrush of the wilderness.

Two new evolutions and an incredible finale! My, what an exciting day for scientific discoveries. Unfortunately that's all the time we have for this week, but be sure to check out these gorgeous EIs in La Victoire when you have the chance! And don't forgot to vote in our Weekly EI Poll for your favorite EI and make your opinions known. See you next Friday, Gaians!

As an added bonus to The Cocklebur King's dramatic finale, we've also included this gorgeous image for you all!

Gaians, I had a strage premonition last night! I dreamt I was in a room surrounded by beautiful tuna steaks, but I couldn't eat any of them because I had decided to become a vegetarian!

19 Rococo Update: Latter Day Caesar and Latter Day Augustus
Hello, everyone! Kanoko here, back with more amazing offerings from wonderful Gaian artists! But whew, this shopkeeping thing is hard, guys!

We've got some gorgeous items by the incredibly talented Reapersun available today, and you just gotta take a look at them!

Latter Day Caesar and Latter Day Augustus perfectly combines modern-day clothes with the powerful authority of former emperors! Also, I was chatting with Cygnus recently and he's just such a nice guy! I kinda want people to chat with him more since he's kinda shy... So to help bring him out of his shell a little, I'm actually sending some of my wares to La Victoire! These exquisite new items and PRlSM's lovely Queen of Flowers, King of Crowns, and Ace of Stars are going to be sold in La Victoire until April 26, 11:59 PM EST!

19 Easter 2k14: Easter Bunny's Update!
At long last, Gaians! My time has truly come! Not only is Easter a celebration of all things bunny, egg, and pastel-related, but it is also a time for Gaia's best holiday mascot to shine: the Easter Bunny! You didn't think I'd just abandon you all on my very own holiday, did you? No, I'm hopping around the forums, dispensing words of wisdom and so much more! Have you found my wonderful gifts yet? Make sure you look for me and grab the eggs I'm offering. They're not bombs this time -- I promise! Is this a face that could ever lie to you?

But it simply wouldn't be Easter without a fun egg hunt! Have you been clicking every egg you find? I'm sure you have, especially since there are great prizes for those of you diligent enough to collect lots of eggs. You'll earn an achievement and great prizes after collecting 50, 150, and 250 eggs. So keep scavenging for them! You definitely don't want to miss out on these super cute rewards!

Switchem is back as well, this time celebrating my very own holiday -- as it should be! Be sure to play it for a chance at even more great prizes and gold! And I'm certain you all know that there are special items being given out every day simply for logging into Gaia. Log in every day of the event and you'll earn an extra reward! It's truly going to be the best Easter ever, all thanks to me. And no thanks to that mangy, flea-bitten, lime-colored little irritant...

Happy early Easter, every Gaian!

I officially deliver to you your Right to Bare Arms. It comes loaded with tons of different arm poses, each one free of any sort of stuffy cloth covering. What could possibly be better? It'll be in La Victoire for a while yet, so drop by soon if you'd like to check it out! Just make sure you bring some thread, 'cause these arms are ripped.

20 Rabbit Brigade and Pastel Dearie now in La Victoire!
Wondrous news, Gaians! I've done something absolutely amazing! That shouldn't surprise any of you, of course -- everything I do is pretty much the greatest thing ever -- but I'm sure you'll be pleased with my actions nonetheless. Just in the time for the upcoming holiday, I've recolored two seasonally appropriate sets that you'll no doubt hop with excitement over! Let's take a look at my amazing artistry together:

-

Rabbit Brigade is here to prove that not everything needs to be pastel-colored to relate to Easter! No, you can also be black, white, and fabulous while showing off your E-CORP pride. Of course, if you want to go a little more old-fashioned, I've also designed the dainty Pastel Dearie in traditional Easter shades! They're both available now in La Victoire, where they'll be on sale until April 26th, 11:59 PM EST. Drop by if you'd like to check 'em out!

21 Limited Quantity Item: Run & Gun
OH MY STARS, GAIANS! They've finally debuted! Surely you've all heard the hype for the latest GPOP band GALAXY? My goodness, they're the SHINeeiest thing I've ever laid eyes on! I recommend them 2NE1 out there who enjoys excellent music, dancing, and of course... costumes! These talented young performers have really upped their style game for their first ever music video. They're certainly starting off with a BIG BANG! Oh! Here comes their main dancer now!

21 Make It Pour now available in a 100 pack bundle, at 40% off!
Looks like it's still raining outside! It's overcast skies all the way, alas. But the forecast seems to predict clear weather later tonight! That means the incredible Make It Pour will probably be leaving the shop soon. And just when I was starting to find the patter of coins on our roof comforting! But don't worry, it won't disappear without making a splash. That's why I'm offering bundles, including the new 100 pack, of Make It Pour at 40% off until April 21st, 11:59 PM EST!

With Make It Pour you could win up to three billion gold! It's simple: the worse your weather, the more gold you'll win! Will you score a little drizzle of coin?

21 Eat Me & Drink Me back in La Victoire with bundles 30% off!
Oh dear, Gaians! Some irritating rabbit has been digging holes all over our shop's lawn. I've tried to catch him, but every time I think I've caught the pesky rodent I just fall down another rabbit hole. Then there's this whole ordeal where I have to travel through a surreal land filled with whimsy and wonder and it's just super annoying the twentieth time you go through it. So you win, Mr. Rabbit, I give up. This time, anyway. But I did manage to bring back tons of Eat Me and Drink Me during my various journeys. Enough that I think I'm overstocked on 'em! So I'll be offering bundles of both at 30% off until April 21st, 11:59 PM EST!

22 Limited Quantity Item: Absolute Nyx
Amazing news, Gaians! Another beautiful recolor has descended from on high, winging its way down to my humble little shop. Now, I normally avoid extremes and absolutes, but I gotta admit that I think this may be one of our best recolors yet:

22 Flynn's Plunder updated with oodles of arms and leg mods!
Avast, ye scurvy Gaians! Y'know, a lot of people assume that we pirates are nothing but peg legs and eye patches, but that's not true! Look at me: the epitome of a ferocious space captain, but I've got every limb necessary to punch and bootstomp my way through a successful raid. I even have a little extra now, in fact... I managed to intercept a ship full of slightly off-brand clothes and limb prosthetics destined for the garbage heap. Well, I don't believe in recycling! So I'm putting them up in my Plunder, where they'll be available for bidding by Gaians all over. We've got great items like Fiery Ascension, Princess of the Heavens, and even Portrait of a Deer!

22 Score an incredible reward with Nirvana's Gate!
Greetings, esteemed ladies and gentlemen! I am ever your humble ringmaster turned shop owner, Monsieur Loyal, and I've an incredible wonder to reveal to you today. Are you all prepared? Sitting down? You may want to consider finding yourself a seat, as the item I've chosen to show you today is so marvelous, so mind boggling, that it may very well make you feel weak at the knees. Consider yourself warned, Gaians. Now, enough with the preamble! Let us get on with the show. I invite you all to feast your eyes upon my latest offering, the incredible Nirvana's Gate!

-

Please, please—no crowding! Restrain from gasping and swooning! I realize this item is both shocking and wondrous, but there is simply so much more I must tell you! With the remarkable Nirvana's Gate you are all but guaranteed an amazing prize. It could be a valuable item from Gaia's past, like the adorable North Kitten Star, or even beautiful new creations made by yours truly! With items like the Lavender Marionette and Cernunnos' Blessing as potential winnings, there is simply no reason not to visit my tent and pick up an armful. Alas, the magic used to create this item is somewhat unstable—it will only be in my shop until May 6, so be sure you visit soon! Missing this astounding opportunity would be such a terrible, terrible waste.

22 Secret Admirer is back in La Victoire!
Oooh, Gaians! I've got some juicy gossip for you! I've heard, through sources I am not permitted to reveal, that someone might TOTALLY HAVE A CRUSH ON YOU OH MY GOODNESS. Oh. Whoa. Sorry. I just get super in to this kind of thing! I blame it on the amount of time I spend with Rina. She's the only one who can properly brush my fur, though! Anyway, you can find out who is secretly pining for you with Secret Admirer, now back in La Victoire at a whopping 40% discount!

With Secret Admirer you'll not only receive a lovely flower and a card from one of your favorite NPCs, you'll also get gold or a valuable item! You could win up to one billion gold or gorgeous sets like Rookie Love or Love Fox! Isn't that romantic? These pretty flowers only stay fresh for a while, though, so this item leaves the shop April 22nd, 11:59 PM EST. Drop by La Victoire and pick one up to see who has a crush on you!

22 Trickster's Deceit now available in La Victoire!
Mind your wallets and watches, ladies and gent, 'cause this tricky little miss is up to no good! Oh sure, she might look as sweet as cherry pie, but she'll con you good if you're not careful! I totally saw her grift a dollar from Cygnus to buy herself a bag of Cake O'Yums from the vending machine. He never gives me money for candy! Admittedly, he told me that had something to do with me never paying him back any of the money he lends me, but still... What sort of mind games can she possibly be playing to coerce people into doing her bidding? And, more importantly, will she agree to teach me all of her tricks?

-

Trickster's Deceit is a sneaky little thing, but you gotta admit that her outfit is killer! Perhaps her signature look makes her seem so fabulous that it convinces people to believe anything she says? Hmm... I'll have to try it on and see for myself! And if that doesn't work then maybe I can try one of the other amazing ensembles in the Bundle of Tricks, which contains the original Trickster's Gimmick and all other recolors! They'll be in the shop until April 28th, 11:59 PM EST -- drop by and take a look! Just be careful not to get conned.

Jet: LIKE A VANILLA BUTTERCREAM CUPCAKE also Cygnus can we get cupcakes later.

Cygnus: Go away! Jeeze. Okay, enough yammering. This is ridiculous. Look, this is the item, okay?

24 Help Princess Bellatrix conquer the world in Demonation!
Uh-oh, Gaians. Looks like we're in for some real trouble down the road! I've heard tell that a portal to the demon realm has opened up, and that an adorable princess is amassing a giant army of hellspawn looking to march on -- oh! Not on us, apparently. Looks like they're just passing through? HOORAY! GAIA IS SAVED! Although I do wonder where they actually plan on heading. I'm trying to keep my distance, personally, but maybe you'll want to help out in their campaign for world conquest? Who knows! Maybe your assistance will be just what they need to turn the tide of battle. And I bet you'll even score some totally epic loot!

-

Oooh, scandalous! Those demons sure know how to make an impression! So what do you say? Will you help Princess Bellatrix achieve global Demonation? She might seem a little haughty, but I'm sure deep down she'd appreciate the help and reward you well! Be sure to check out Demonation in La Victoire, where recruitment efforts are still going strong. Good luck, Gaians!

24 My Dearest now available in La Victoire!
Man, I tell ya -- this latest recolor has given me a real hankering for some coffee and cream! And I don't even like coffee! Too bitter, unless it has at least fifteen packets of Splendoo in it.

24 Demon's Dignity now available in La Victoire!
I'm sure you all know about Princess Bellatrix and her demonic forces passing through Gaia on their way to global conquest, right? Well, I finally got so curious I just simply had to take a look at some of these demons myself! And man, can they dress to impress. Or, uh... Dress for less, in some cases. But I was so inspired by some of their devilish garb that I felt I needed to create something in their image! After some tweaking and some prodding, I finally managed to get Cygnus to recolor something for me! I -- I mean... I made this! Yes. Me. All me.

-

Demon's Dignity may be rendered in angelic shades, but I assure you it's as wicked as they come! This gorgeous item is available now in La Victoire, where it'll be on sale until May 1st, 11:59 PM EST. Be sure to drop by and check it out!

24 Gaia Online April Update
Hello, Gaians! Boy, do we have a jam packed update for you today! This past month has been loaded with amazing events and updates that we hope everyone has enjoyed. And we still have tons of exciting things to come! Now that the month is nearly over, let's take a moment to look at April in review...

It seems that Kanoko has finally finished her apprenticeship with Brennivin and opened her very own shop! Rococo features amazing and stylish item sets created by some of Gaia's most popular artists. Think of it as their very own clothing line right here on Gaia! Currently, Rococo is stocked with some gorgeous, unique sets created by the talented PRlSM and Reapersun. Be sure to support the artists you love in the future by visiting Rococo and browsing all the beautiful items it currently has available!

But Kanoko wasn't the only one getting a new shop! Loyal has officially thrown open his doors—well, circus tent flaps—and is welcoming in any Gaians loyal enough to have earned a ticket. He's filled his shelves with breathtaking new recolors, original items, and some incredible CIs! His newest offering, the Nirvana's Gate, is loaded with valuable recolors, wings, and even brand new items. Be sure to check it out soon, as Nirvana's Gate will only be in his shop until May 6! And who knows? We may even see more CIs like these in the future... Perhaps even once a month?

We also had quite an "eventful" April. Did everyone enjoy the Easter event? How many eggs did everyone manage to gather? It was a fun week loaded with freebies, great games, and visits from Diedrich and the Easter Bunny. We also had a little Earth Day celebration, complete with a forum and adorable leaf hat. We hope you all had a wonderful time!

-

Don't forget that Project Couture leaves La Victoire tonight! We wish everyone the absolute best in scoring a coveted Golden Ticket, and we can't wait to see what future designs you Gaians have in store for us. Our custom sets so far have been incredible! We hope you all enjoyed them as much as we enjoyed partnering with Hi-Potion, B R A I N, and Castle Town to make the sets of their dreams.

It's been a super exciting month for CIs! Vivid Harmony brought with it tons of fabulous items sure to inspire great outfits on your avatar! Princess Bellatrix and her demon army are also rambling through Gaia as we speak, preparing for their campaign for world Demonation! And I don't know about you guys, but I'm feeling kind of thirsty... Maybe my adorable animal pals will bring me some sort of tasty beverage!

Speaking of animals, we've got lots in store for them too! Monthly Collectibles now include an item exclusively for animals. This month it was an adorable teddy bear-themed set that even gave you the option to become a cuddly teddy yourself! So cute. And with the floppy-eared puppy base on the horizon it's simply never been a better time to be small, fuzzy, and adorable.

As for what is up and coming...

Own a home? Bust out the coveralls because housing will be getting a makeover!

What's this? Pages, panels, drawings? How strange! What could this all mean? All I know, man, is that I'm going ga-ga for it!

April has really been an incredible month, Gaians! With so much already in store for the upcoming months, we hope you're just as excited about the future as we are!

24 Gaia Cash sale extended until 2:59 AM EST!

25 Limited Quantity Item: Miss Mustachio
Gaians, I feel that I mustache you a few questions. Are you feeling trendy? How about cute? Perhaps even a little... fuzzy? Because I may have found the perfect item for you out in the marketplace! It was a bit of a close shave lugging it back to the shop all by my lonesome, but I think it was totally worth it! See for yourself, Gaian chums!

-

Miss Mustachio is a sneaky little thing! Her outfit is so cute, but you know what I think? I don't believe that's really her own facial hair. Maybe it's all speculation on my part, but it certainly seems awfully suspect! That doesn't change the fact that her ensemble is a mustache must have, however! It's available now in La Victoire, where it'll be on sale until May 4th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. Uh oh, looks like I really mustache! Er, I mean, must dash. See you in La Victoire, Gaians!

25 March Madness: Win items from La Victoire's March inventory!
I've gone mad, Gaians! Absolutely mad with power! Bwahahahha -- koffkoff. Whoa. Apparently evil cackling is a lot more challenging than I originally thought. Anyway, it looks like we've still got oodles of inventory leftover from our marvelous March sales. And in the spirit of spring cleaning which has so suddenly seized my person, I'm lookin' to get rid of some of the extra! Oh, and maybe also add a little extra as well... Heh! Confused? Don't worry. This image of all this sweet swag oughta clear it up for you!

-

That's right, Gaians! With March Madness you could win nearly anything from our incredible selection of goods that were available in March! You might score items that debuted in March, like Polar Ice Sea, Pride of Hubris, or Fairy Iridessa -- or maybe you'll even nab items like The Mad Hatter, Wendy's Care, or Bitter Sweets that also were in La Victoire during March! But that's not all... We've also filled this item with brand new, never before seen recolors! You could win an adorable Airy Edebel, a fuzzy Daquiri the Alpaca, or even the beautiful Cream Marionette! All this PLUS tons more that I neglected to mention because my attention span is kind of short! Either way you'll be getting an incredible prize. But the best part? I'll be offering bundles for 30% off! It's crazy! It's insane! It's MARCH MADNESS! And it'll only be in the shop until April 30th, 11:59 PM EST.

25 Curious Bloom now available in La Victoire!
Y'know, people sometimes say that curiosity killed the cat. But do they have any data to back that up? I'm talking numbers, statistics -- something! Because I've always been a pretty inquisitive little scamp and I've only had maybe four or five near death experiences. Like that one time I decided to try sticking my tongue in the electric socket... Exciting and electrifying! But I wouldn't advise you do it. Anyway, I don't think there is really a problem with being curious. Especially when you can be curious AND fabulous all at the same time!

-

I'm so curious, yeah! Especially about the lovely new Curious Bloom! Isn't her outfit enigmatically awesome? She'll be available in the shop until May 1st, 11:59 PM EST, so be sure to visit soon before this beautiful blossom withers away!

25 EI Report: M's Sketcbhook, and introducing Rookie's Pursuit!
Friday, Friday! You gotta get your science on when it's Friday! I have so many exciting evolutions to show you today that I feel like I might burst with joy! I feel like my research has never been more pertinent, Gaians. Especially since I've recently partnered up with Rina -- you know, the loud girl with all the flowers and pies -- to create a brand new Evolving Item based on a popular Monthly Collectible. Fusion, Gaians! It's totally possible! Enough stalling. Let's take a look at M's Sketchbook and witness the debut of Rookie's Pursuit!

-

M's Sketchbook: Guilt actually begins to make you sweat as you sneak another step closer. Tip toeing enough to see a lacy sketch of a headband, you eye the girl warily. Luckily, she continues to ignore your existence. “They’re just pretty, that’s why. Oh. Yeah, well, not everyone likes hime bangs, so that’s why the bangs are there. Oh, the hairpins? It’s not a glitch. It’s supposed to work like that. I’m not sure if it’ll be a successful pose, but yeah, decided to go ahead and make it anyway. Nah, I’m pretty sure it’s okay to do. Maybe. If not, then I dunno. I’m sure people won’t actually get it until way later anyway.” The content of her conversation becomes more and more cryptic. In fact, you have no idea what she’s talking about. From the doodle on her sketchbook, it looks like just a regular hairclip with a ton of notes scribbled on the side. Sadly, the words are impossible to make out, seeing how they resemble chicken scratch.

Rookie's Pursuit: "Hey, Rookie! You got some mail!"

Minerva glanced up as one of her associates tossed a letter on to her small, cramped desk. She wished people would stop calling her a rookie. Being known in the office as a “Rookie Detective” made people even less likely to take her seriously. Probably didn’t help that she still hadn’t uncovered any leads in the Striking Thief case, despite the fact that she had been working on it for months now. Exhaling an exasperated sigh, Minerva reached for the letter and turned it over slowly in her hands. No return address, and she didn’t recognize the handwriting. Hardly looked like any letter she’d ever seen before, either. Who the heck sent out black envelopes tied with blue ribbons? Brow furrowing, Minerva warily sniffed at the letter. Didn’t smell strange, at least.

Curiosity finally overcame her natural suspicions, and Minerva gingerly worked the seal of the envelope open. A small card flittered delicately into her lap as the envelope fell open; it was about the size of a playing card, entirely white save for a black emblem she didn’t recognize. She stared at it for a moment, puzzled, before she directed her gaze back to the letter itself. Written in a tidy, flowing script were the following words:

"The Spellbound Sapphire necklace, Minauderie Manor, at the masquerade ball four moons from tonight."

Minerva knew then exactly who the letter was from. Tightening her jaw, she reached for her bag and stuffed both the letter and the card inside. Did the Thief mean to taunt her? Seething, Minerva stomped past her colleagues, determined to catch the elusive criminal once and for all. Even if it meant wearing a gown and heels for a night…

“Where are you going?” called one gumshoe as she stormed past.

“The masquerade ball!”

The door slammed behind her as the other detectives shared a befuddled look, the office momentarily lapsed into silence.

“Pfft. Yeah, right. She’ll totally fit in.” scoffed one.

After a good laugh the senior detectives returned to their work, happy to let the rookie distract herself on her wild goose chase.

Ooh! I have chills! Is anyone else as intrigued as I am? Who is the mysterious person M is talking to? Why does M seem so obstinate? And will Minerva be able to master the art of dancing in heels? Only one way to find out, Gaians! Stay tuned for next Friday's report, and be sure to vote in our Weekly EI Poll to make your opinions known! You can check out all these great EIs and more in La Victoire. Have a good weekend, everyone!

25 March Madness now available in a 6 Pack Bundle!
Hooray! Looks like the madness has spread, Gaians! Or perhaps it's multiplied? Because March Madness is now available in a 6 Pack Bundle! That means even more opportunities to win lots of gold or great prizes like these!

That's right, Gaians! With March Madness you could win nearly anything from our incredible selection of goods that were available in March! You might score items that debuted in March, like Polar Ice Sea, Pride of Hubris, or Fairy Iridessa -- or maybe you'll even nab items like The Mad Hatter, Wendy's Care, or Bitter Sweets that also were in La Victoire during March!

26 Limited Quantity Item: Counterfeit Widow
Hmm. Y'know, guys, I'm not sure this widow is legit. Something tells me she might be faking some of her sadness! In fact I'm not sure she was ever actually married to begin with! Call it a hunch. And also because of my expert sleuthing skills! Since this item has an awfully suspicious name...

-

The Counterfeit Widow may seem like she's in mourning on the outside, but does anyone else see her smile? Very strange. Those ruffles sure are beautiful, though! You can find this lovely item right here in La Victoire, where it'll be on sale until May 2nd, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. Whoever she may be, her outfit is really spectacular!

27 Can you crack the case? Win great prizes with Mystery Scene
Huh... Did anyone else see Radio Jack recently? He had a magnifying glass and was muttering something about how "the game was a foot" or something like that. What kind of game is a foot? Football? I'm really confused, guys. I went to ask him what the heck he was talking about but he yelled something about how I was obstructing justice and brushed right past me. Rude! But does anyone else wanna follow him to see what he's up to? Heh. I thought so. Okay, let's do this. Who knows? Maybe Radio Jack will lead us to some amazing treasures!

-

With Mystery Scene you're tasked with helping Radio Jack solve the case! Depending on the clue you choose, you could score gold, items, or you could even opt to surprise yourself!

27 LQI: Madame's Wondrous and Stupendous Wigs

I was trying to find a barrel for my models to wear, just to prove my point, but they protested pretty loudly about that. Doesn't their hair look marvelous though?

28 Limited Quantity Item: Itsy Bitsy Biter & Ribbon Spinner
Gaians, I am conflicted. On one hand, these sets are adorable. On the other hand, they're tiny little spiders. On the other other hand, I don't feel the urge to immediately squish them under a book. On the other other other hand, look at their tiny fangs! On the other other -- okay, you know what, this could go on forever. Especially if I had eight little arms and legs to work with like these guys. But I just don't know how to feel! I mean, take a look at these guys and tell me what you think.

Cute, right? But also creepy? Creepy cute? Is that a thing now? Itsy Bitsy Biter and Ribbon Spinner, you guys are just blowing my mind!

28 Win some new wings, bangs, or eyes with Heavenly Features!
Looks like we've received a gift from on high, Gaians! As in "on high upon the shelf" -- I've been trying to reach this dang thing for months! It's just been sitting up there, all sparkly and unattainable... At least until I pestered Cygnus long enough to bring it down for me. And now it's mine! All mine! Or, well... I guess all ours, technically. It's filled with beautiful new wings, bangs, and eyes, but unfortunately they don't look all that great on me. I guess I'm already perfect as is! But if you're feeling a little less fabulous than you might like, then perhaps something like this would add a little more sparkle to your ensemble?

-

With Heavenly Features you could win a vast assortment of divine goods! It could be lovely new eyes like the Bright Composer Eyes, colorful new bangs like the Anarchist's Risque Angel Bangs, or even gorgeous new wings in a variety of shades! Sure, they might not make you an actual angel, but you'll at least look amazing! Check it out now in La Victoire, where it'll be on sale for a good while!

28 Get a head start on May's CI with Advance Chance!
Hello, Gaians. You'll have to forgive me if I'm a little distant. I'm just feeling so nostalgic today! I'm reminiscing about the days when I was but a young tyke, happily playing with my abacus in those halcyon days of youth. Not a care in the world! And I had such an active imagination! Some days I'd take up my toy sword and pretend I was a great king, tasked to destroy a giant stone monster. Other days I'd crawl into our disused fireplace and cover myself in the cinders, or dress up the family cat in kicky little boots! Sure, my clothes may have ended up a little Rumpeled, but my beloved god mother always made sure I was polished and ready for the ball. Oh, the time I would I'd spend with her! I'd bring over a basket of goodies and we'd sit in the living room, where she would tell me ghastly tales about what happened to naughty children who misbehaved. Ah, but I digress. It looks like our monthly Advance Chance has finally arrived!

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the May Advance Chance. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

Sorry for that trip down memory lane, folks! I suppose it can't really be helped when one gets in these kinds of moods, can it? I wonder if I can find that old book my darling Memaw used to read to me... Oh! In the meantime, however, I have some very exciting news! From now on, all Advance Chance bundles will be sold at a discount! That means you get even more bang for your buck if you invest early. It's like a fairy tale come true! Be sure to check out April's Advance Chance in La Victoire, where it is truly an accountant's dream.

29 Win tons of gold or great items with April Showers!
Man, some weather we've been having lately! Can you believe all this rain? Makes you wonder what's going on up there with the Weather Gremlin. You guys have heard of him, right? Cygnus told me all about that dude. It's some old wrinkly gross guy with a whole bunch of levers, and he pulls them at random to create all the weather we see down here on the ground! I suspect he doesn't like me or something 'cause he's been making tons and tons of rain, and I reaallly hate getting my beautiful fur wet. Do you know how long it takes to dry? It's so thick and lustrous! All that aside, however, this inclement weather is definitely a boon to you Gaians. Especially since it's showering all sorts of great things, not just rain!

30 Discover a pile of gold with Dragon Trove!
Huh... The weirdest thing just happened, guys. Some dragon claiming to be Engelbert's cousin appeared, calling himself Cap'n Bertengel. I'm not sure if he's legit but he did say he knew where to find lots of buried treasure -- and he'd be willing to offer it to us if I paid him in bagels! Man, I don't even like bagels. I don't trust any food that has a hole in it, you know? So I was pretty game. A dozen bagels and shmear later and off we set, looking for adventure and a stack of gold coins! We didn't have to go far. In fact all we did was walk down a block or so, at which point Cap'n Bertengel plunked down in front of a massive pile of gold and started parceling it out to me. Weeeeird...

Anyway, with Dragon Trove you could win a whole mountain of gold! In fact, you could win up to five billion gold, if you're super lucky! So what do you say, me hearty? Arr! Come check it out in La Victoire! Although Cap'n Bertengel will only be sticking around until May 1st, 11:59 PM EST -- be sure to drop by before then!

02 New Portrait of a Deer and Hare recolors in La Victoire!
Y'know, Gaians, I'm an old-fashioned kind of kitten at heart. I tend to see the world in black and white! The fashion world, that is. And also the real world because sometimes I eat too much candy and I go a little colorblind until I come off the sugar high. Anyway, that's why these gorgeous new recolors appeal so much to my sophisticated palette! They've got some real classic shades that really bring out the beauty of the item itself. Here, check it out!

Silhouette of a Vintage Hare and Vignette of an Old Fashioned Deer could have stepped out of an old timey photograph of an incredible fashion runway! In fact, I suspect they might have...

02 EI Report: Rookie's Pursuit, and M's Sketchbook's finale!
Happy Friday, Gaians! I'm so excited to get this EI Report going that I'm not even going to bother with my usual patter. Instead I'll leave you a series of cryptic hints as to what I've been up to lately! Robot, super hero, zombie, raspberry jam, foot massage. Figure it out! Now let's get on with the really interesting stuff. Not only do we have another incredible evolution from Rookie's Pursuit, but M's Sketchbook has finished evolving and has a gorgeous finale for us to study!

-

M's Sketchbook: “Shush, they’re braids. It’s not the same. Nah, don’t wanna do a face mod. I still don’t think I’m particularly great at eyes or lips, let alone facial expressions.” Her laugh lacks conviction, piquing your interest as you tilt more to get a better glimpse. Unfortunately, glimpses are all you are able to see until she stops moving her hand. “It’s a dress. There are two layers! What’s wrong with my legs? So what if it’s plain? Shush, I put shorts in this one. GTFO, I like plain. No you’re plain!” Super mature conversation, guys. You can’t help but laugh, and too late do you realize your mistake.

Her head turns sharply, pinning you with a stunned, exasperated, and then indignant expression. “Oh my gawd, that creeper was still here and totally listening in on our convo. Gawd, I feel so violated. Eww.” Her expression darkens as she takes a step closer. Instinct makes you move back, yet your mind tells you it’s ridiculous to be scared of such a tiny girl. Her voice manages to pierce through your unfounded terror. “Did you see? You saw, didn’t you?!” Saw what? Your mind reels for an answer. You soon realize she means the content in her book. Slowly, you nod with trepidation. No sooner than you give your answer does a swift pain knock you to your knees. She just whacked you across your head! “Rude much? You’re lucky I don’t kick you in the-- adslkdfjlaksfd--!!” She streams off into a string of colorful choice words before taking a breath to calm herself just as a taxi pulls up. “I hope a pigeon poops on you.” The taxi door slams shut and speeds off soon after.

Well, that had gone over well. You rub the back of your head, nursing both the physical and emotional hurt dealt by a single girl. And of course, that would be the precise moment you realize who she is.

Rookie's Pursuit: Inhale. Exhale. Minerva inwardly steeled herself as she raised a hand to bang on the massive wooden doors barricading Minauderie Manor from the outside rabble. A butler in a pressed suit swung the door open, staring down the bridge of his nose at the detective now dirtying his doorstep. He sighed, as if her mere existence was a bother, before quietly stepping to the side to allow her in.

“His lordship has been expecting you. Please, this way.”

Her conversation with Lord Minauderie was brief. The Spellbound Sapphire necklace had to be moved, of course. Minerva and the lord decided to move it to a separate safe, and instead a worthless decoy was nestled into its display case -- hopefully it’d be enough to fool the Striking Thief. An hour of strategizing later and Minerva left the manor, confident that she had done everything in her power to secure the necklace. Lord Minauderie assured her tirelessly that he would have guards patrolling every square inch of the estate during the masquerade itself, and with the Spellbound Sapphire safely secreted away and radio communications that would alert her the moment anything went awry… Well, what was there to be afraid of?

Besides the masquerade itself.

Minerva’s nose wrinkled with distaste as she sifted through her sister’s closet, passing over gown after gown as Juno tapped her foot impatiently behind her.

“Oh my god. Minerva. Just pick something!”

Mineva mentally shifted another dress over to her “no” pile as she picked her way deeper into the closet. “Do you have anything less… Frilly? Something I could maybe run in?”

Juno rolled her eyes. “Wouldn’t you rather wear something you could dance in?” she asked, petulant. Eventually Juno elbowed her way past Minerva, shoving her back as she reached for a gown and thrusting it at her younger sister. “Here! This is fine, okay? You’ll look great in it.”

Minerva pursed her lips to the side, visibly uncomfortable. The idea of having to attend a ball full of hoity-toity types wasn’t sitting well with her, even after she had spent the last three days preparing. “It’s just so… Poofy.” she observed.

Juno only handed her sister a matching mask in response. “You’ll be fine. Just… I don’t know. Smile and giggle a lot.” Juno suggested flippantly.

Suddenly Minerva wasn’t so sure if she could do this or not. But she nodded, gingerly holding the mask up to her face. Well… At least that fit.

Amazing! I'll be sad to see M's Sketchbook go, but what a ride! Stay tuned for next Friday's report, and be sure to vote in our Weekly EI Poll to make your opinions known! You can check out all these great EIs and more in La Victoire. Have a good weekend, everyone!

03 New gorgeous wings available in La Victoire!
It happened again, folks. Cygnus got a little too sassy and so I had to whack him with a pillow, and then I guess he was obligated to hit me with another pillow, and it all just sort of dissolved from there... Anyway, it ended up with both of us covered in a pile of feathers. Well, I'm never one to ignore a good opportunity! All those feathers have to be put to good use, right? And so use 'em I did...

Looks like our lovely spring bride is nearly ready for her walk down the aisle! And what a perfect season for it, am I right? Is there any better time to get married than spring?

04 Punishing Superbia in La Victoire!
Gaians, I think we might need a little help. And by "we" I mean "Cygnus", because this new demon lady is all up in his business and I think he's starting to freak out a little. She keeps purring stuff like "I'll punish you" and "Care to see my whip?" at the big purple lug and I just don't think I've ever seen him so awkward. And Cygnus is always super uncomfortable, so you know it's bad right now. You gotta help us distract her! Although, admittedly, she's kind of distracting herself...

-

Punishing Superbia has one heck of an outfit on -- if you can call it an outfit. Apparently she'd be happy to dress up anyone just like her, but I'm not up to it and Cygnus looks like he kind of wants to cry, so I guess that leaves you brave Gaians out there! Any of you feeling a little risque? Then come visit La Victoire, where our new overly friendly demoness will be hanging out until May 7th, 11:59 PM EST. I'm sure she'd love to see you!

04 Ready for the School Furstival? New animal items galore!
Oh, hello Gaians! Sorry, you caught me at kind of a strange time. I was just flipping through this old space school yearbook... What funny pictures! And some great memories. Oh, see, here's Cygnus' yearbook photo. Can you believe he had braces? Thank goodness that ugly duckling grew up into... Well. Whatever you wanna call Cygnus now, I guess. At least he's purple and tall? Anyway, I was the coolest kid back in school. Super popular! Everyone was all like, "Oh Jet! You're the greatest! How are you so great?!" and then I'd sparkle and they'd be so blown away that they couldn't even ask any more questions. Cygnus might say school was a little different, but that's how I remember it! Which reminds me... We've got a school festival for animals coming up soon! Everyone, pack up your yukata and school uniforms -- let's get this festival on the road!

-

With School Furstival you could win all sorts of adorable school-themed sets! Whether it's a sailor fuku perfect for those days you're running late to school, a kindergartner's first uniform, or even a look perfect for all you class rebels out there, the Furstival will have something purrfect for you! It's going on right now in La Victoire, so come on by soon and celebrate with us!

In Silence I Judge may be kind of abrasive, but I guess it's just her purpose in life to hand out judgment from on high. I just wish she was less sassy about it! You can find this gorgeous ensemble right here in La Victoire, where it'll be available until May 8th, 11:59 PM EST. Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta go blow my nose.

05 Cash Shop Update: No Evil Bundle
Mmmph mmmm mmphh! Oh -- haha! Sorry. I was just trying out this "speak no evil" thing I've been hearing so much about, but I think it's too tricky to keep up! I think I'd rather just talk a lot, even if it means I'm a little evil. I'm pretty well reconciled with that fact. Anyway, this whole notion of not speaking, hearing, or seeing evil kind of got me thinking -- about pancakes! Then after I had eaten some breakfast and taken my nap, I was hit by a burst of creativity. And voila! I managed to create a brand new bundle full of some incredible new items. Everyone, it's time to reveal the fabulous new No Evil Bundle!

-

Mask of the Blind Eye: The willful blindness. The person behind the mask refusing to see things for what they really are. After all... ignorance is bliss. Includes a painted eye mask worn in two ways, closed eyes, styled blue hair, concealing arms, shirt paired with a vest, and a sharp pair of slacks.

Calumny Chauntelle: Calumny Chauntelle can't help herself from fabricating stories about the lives around her. She loves spreading little rumors, false information, just about anything to make the gossip even more juicier! Includes her pleated dress, shifty eyes, long twintail hair, glittering hairclip, ombre stockings and shoes, and arms that tell you she's trying to stop spreading lies...

Available exclusively in the No Evil Bundle is Owyn the Barn Owl! Some people believe the sound of an owl at night will curse the victim with sickness and death... but little sweet Owyn? He might be a bit of an odd ball but he'd much rather love you to death. Includes 4 adorable poses and a distinctive screech you'll never forget.

Much as I want to scream about how wonderful this bundle is to the entire world, I guess I oughta just keep my mouth shut! You can find this great bundle of goodies right here in La Victoire, so be sure to drop by and check it out!

05 Play some Cat's Cradle and you could win gold or items!
Hang on a sec guys, I'm a little tied up at the moment... I was playing with some string earlier -- I mean, what kitty doesn't love string? -- and now I seem to be all tangled up in it! I've been struggling for hours trying to get out but so far no luck. Cygnus even walked by a few times! I asked him to help but he just said something about how he had "better things to do" and left. And then returned with a bowl of popcorn! And watched me try to escape while eating the popcorn for a bit. And then he left again. I don't get that guy sometimes, I swear. Anyway, I think I'm almost free by now. Just let me dislocate my shoulder and... There! I'M FREE! Time to celebrate my glorious freedom from my yarn-y oppressor with tons of gold, prizes, and even discounts -- great rewards just like these!

-

Wanna play a game? Then let's use up all this extra string and play some Cat's Cradle! With Cat's Cradle you get to pick from three super appealing options: either gold, item, or surprise! You could win up to seven and a half billion gold, or great items like Blade of the Forenoon Sky, Maker of Pies, or Beyond Pale! It's the kind of deal that just has me in knots of excitement! Cat's Cradle will be in the shop until May 7th, 11:59 PM EST, so why not drop by La Victoire and play a round or two? Just be careful not to get trapped -- you're going to be able to buy tons of extra string with these bundles at an incredible 30% discount until May 6th, 11:59 PM EST!

06 Limited Quantity Item: Magical Matchmaker
Oh, hey Gaians! Did you guys catch the latest episode of Magical Matchmaker? Aww man, it's was so awesome! She was going up against this big bad guy monster thing and he was all, "Embrace your inner darkness!" and then she was all, "No way, good guys always win!" and then she EXPLODED him with the power of love. Totally sweet. She's kind of a rough and tumble gal for someone who wears so much pink and is so cute! And since I love the show so much, I decide to recreate one of her amazing outfits right here in La Victoire!

-

Magical Matchmaker may look sweet, but when it comes to fighting evil she's tough as nails! You can find it now in La Victoire, where it'll be available until May 12th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. Okay guys, I gotta run. They're about to start a Magical Matchmaker Marathon! See you later!

06 The seal is weakening on May's Advance Chance!
I've found it, Gaians! I've found my Memaw's book! Unfortunately it's entirely written in some ancient and disused tongue from the Dark Ages, so I'm not sure I can actually read it. But at least the illustrations are there! See, here's a drawing of a little girl getting her hair snipped off by a gremlin because she tripped on a Thursday, and another where a young man was pushed out of a clock tower because he didn't cover his nose while sneezing! Good lessons to learn, I think. Oh, but this book is so dusty... Hah... Hah... Achoo! Oh! My goodness. Please, excuse me. I seem to have sneezed on our Advance Chance! And I didn't even cover my mouth! Oh no, they're going to push me out of a clock tower for sure... Well, at least the force of my sneeze seems to have weakened the seal some!

What will the next CI be? Nobody is quite sure, but you’ll get the first crack at it with the May Advance Chance. On the day of the next CI release, you’ll be able to open your bundle and start reaping the rewards of your CIs hours before they’re released to the general public, so you can start listing items on the Marketplace when hardly anyone has their hands on them yet.

Now that I inspect this Advance Chance a little more closely, I'm noticing a few things I hadn't realized before. In fact, I hypothesize that this Chance Item will give Gaians double prizes for reaching the victory stage! And remember, May's Advance Chance is being sold at a big discount, and as an accountant I can advise you that it's a marvelous deal! I'm so excited I might very well swoon and not wake up until my princess charming wakes me! Oh, and by the way: Vivid Harmony will be leaving the shop very shortly! So if you're interested in picking up that last burst of inspiration, be sure to visit La Victoire and pick up a bundle. Now, to try and translate this old book...

06 Feeling brown? Check out our new Brown Wardrobes!
Hello, Gaians! Welcome to the first of hopefully many explorations into the world of color. Today we're taking a closer look at the color brown. Now, I think brown is an often overlooked color! A lot of people see it as the color of dirt, or mud, or dirty puddles of mud. And I think that's unfair! Brown can be as fashionable and lovely as any other color out there. And I'm gonna prove it, with two new bundles full of amazing brown recolors from the past -- and even some special bonuses!

-

His Brown Wardrobe and Her Brown Wardrobe are chock full of amazing brown outfits, like a delicious chocolate bar of gorgeous fashion! But there are a few surprises down in its nougaty center: two new recolors! His Brown Wardrobe contains Demon's Renown, and Her Brown Wardrobe includes Eurydice's Diaphaneity! These beautiful brown recolors and totally brand new, so I definitely suggest dropping by the shop to check out these incredible bundles! They'll be in the shop until May 9th, 11:59 PM EST. Make sure you take a look before they disappear!

-

OH! It's Milky Mew Mew! Rufus and I may or may not have conspired together to leave this adorable outfit for P.U.G. to enjoy.

Oh, and the best part? We've even got an identical animal version perfect for you critters out there: [Animal] Milky Mew Mew! So be sure to drop by and check it out, okay? See you soon!

06 Flynn's Plunder updated with tons of amazing dolls!
Ahoy, Gaians! Y'know, I recently had the opportunity to visit an entire museum dedicated to doll collecting. Beautiful! Really nice pieces, you know? Although the curator was kind of weird. He was just some big purple guy—Sinus, I wanna say? -- asking me who I was and yelling for me to get out of his bedroom. Well, I did! Eventually. With a big armful of dolls. Whatever, he's not gonna miss 'em! Especially not these SDPlus #235 Widowmaker, SDPlus #377 Frankie, and SDPlus #272 Majoko Mariko... Heh.

07 Tell a tale and win a fabulous prize in Peyo's Fables!
Gaians, it seems that you've caught me at a most troubling time. I simply can't sleep! I lie awake for hours in bed, completely wide awake. I'm unable to catch even a wink of shuteye! Oh, if only my dearest Memaw were here to help me. She'd serve me a glass of tepid milk to wash down my cod liver oil and read to me all night if she had to! And sometimes she did, really, because I am a very fickle sleeper. Oh, my fairytale kingdom for those days of yore! I've lived my entire life based on the morality lessons I learned from those books, you know. And it certainly worked out for me! Except that I still can't sleep. And neither can Peyo, apparently! Ruby's just sent a message out to all her friends asking them to read Peyo his bedtime story. Will you answer the call for Peyo's Fables? If you do you could win a Cash Shop favorite, a valuable rare, or one of these incredible new exclusives!

-

It seems like a bunch of Gaian shopkeepers and recognizable faces (namely green, grunny ones) have gathered together to help Ruby out! How kind of them. I guess they'll each tell Peyo a fairy tale of their own until he falls asleep! Who knows? Depending on which story you tell you could win double victory prizes! Oh... and I do believe this Chance Item has some interesting items inside of it... I definitely saw a pair of Jophiel's Wings and Unsettling Omen -- and I'm certain there is more! If you're interested in helping out be sure to pick up a copy of Peyo's Fables in La Victoire! Or if you're looking to turn this into an ongoing series, perhaps you ought to consider a bundle of nine! Maybe I can sneak in and try listening to some of these stories too... I'm sure they'll help me sleep!

09 EI Report: Rookie's Pursuit & introducing The Prince's Rose
Hope you're ready for a scientific bonanza of goodness, Gaians! After all, what is Friday for if not for celebrating my amazing achievements in Evolving Item research? And I've got some splendid results to reveal today! Not only has Rookie's Pursuit achieved its next stage of evolution, but we're also unveiling a brand new EI: The Prince's Rose! Let's take a closer look, shall we?

-

The Prince's Rose: There once was a young maiden who lived in a small village deep in an ancient forest. One day she was out gathering wood when she came upon a path unknown to her. The path was shrouded in a foreboding shadow, even though it was not yet past midday and the sky overhead was bright and clear. But something glittered in that strange darkness, like a star in the night sky, and she was drawn to it. The girl started down the path, traveling deeper and deeper into woods until she came upon an old, broken sword planted into the ground. From the sword grew the most beautiful white roses she'd ever seen, with dew clinging to the petals that sparkled like fragile diamonds. Unable to resist, she plucked a blossom and set it upon her bosom. But the rose turned black as soon as it touched her skin, and silver thorns grew and clung to her. With it came a voice, "This rose is mine, and now, so are you."

Rookie's Pursuit: Minerva had never felt more out of place in her entire life. She fidgeted uncomfortably where she stood, her feet already starting to pinch in their “oh so fashionable” oxfords. How had she allowed Juno to talk her into this? Her sister had practically leapt at the opportunity to “glitz” Minerva up -- her words, not the detective’s. Curlers, lipgloss, rouge; hours spent in a chair getting makeup applied to her face, and for what? She was wearing a mask for crying out loud, so it wasn’t like anyone could see. Besides, Minerva wasn’t here to impress anyone. She had a job to do, plain and simple. All of her discomfort was just making her even more determined to collar the Striking Thief once and for all. At least it was good for something.

Sighing irately, Minerva attempted to inconspicuously hike her heavy gown back into place. Masked couples swirled and waltzed in front of her in a churning sea of shimmering fabrics and glittering jewels as the band played on, song after song. The detective scowled, focusing instead on scanning the room for the hundredth time as radio static buzzed quietly in her ear between the occasional lines of idle police chatter, like some sort of irritating insect. Still no sign of him yet, apparently. But Minerva knew he would come. The thief seemed to enjoy two things more than anything else in the world: stealing gems from the wealthy elite, and humiliating Minerva at every turn. No, he wouldn’t miss an opportunity like this -- particularly not when he invited her personally to attend.

Her thoughts were interrupted by a spattering of polite applause as the band finished their song. It wasn't long, however, before the band struck up another tune. Minerva simply couldn’t take much more of this. She had to do something to distract herself from how awkward she felt. Maybe patrol the perimeter of the ballroom, keep an eye out for anything suspicious. It’d help keep her focused, anyway. Her mind made up, the detective began to edge away from the wall she’d been attempting to innocuously lean against when she felt a light tap on her shoulder.

“May I have this dance?”

Minerva turned around slowly, grimacing at the man currently offering her his gloved hand. Ugh. Could this thief just show up already!?

Such fascinating developments! Unfortunately that's all the time I have this week, but be sure to tune in next week for our next Evolving Item Report! You can see all these incredible items and more in La Victoire, and don't forget to vote in our Weekly EI Poll to let us know what your favorites are. See you soon, junior scientists!

Man, so you know how every teenage girl these days goes through a vampire phase? Well, apparently it happens to weird purple star people too. Cygnus just can't put down these lousy "Twinite" books! What's the appeal? I guess I just don't get it. I mean, I do dig vampires... But you know, the cool old-fashioned ones! The ones that were still dangerous. Y'know: the long hair, the funny way of talking, seducin' people left and right. Those were awesome! So awesome, in fact, that I felt inspired to make a bundle about those cool vampires of yore... Let's take a look at the Vampire Exorcism Bundle, shall we?

-

The Charming Mr. Dorian: Older than what he appears, Mr. Dorian uses his charm to seduce the most beautiful of women -- many of whom are never seen or heard from again. Includes face-obscuring hat, arms with cane, adorned vest, pants and shoes, cape, and long silver hair.

Eliza the Huntress: After a brush with fate, Eliza is no stranger to things that go bump in the night. She's since spent her life hunting down those that feed on the essence of the youthful. Includes her guns blazing pose, vest, hat, leather chaps, overcoat, and side-braided hair.

Available exclusively in the Vampire Exorcism Bundle is Essence of Innocence! A bloody glass of life's essence, drinking from it forces a helpless soul to join the ranks of those trapped inside Dorian's reflection-less mirror. Includes a crimson glass, floating gown, mirror of entrapment, and the newborn vampire's fangs...

Ooohh. Creepy! This is probably one of the few times where I approve of things being less sparkly. Be sure to check out this bundle soon, okay? But I suggest picking it up at night. I'm a little worried it'll disintegrate if the sun touches it.

10 Cosmic Cadet now available in La Victoire!
Cygnus: All right, look. It's a space item. I made it purple. Which means I made it better. Okay? I don't have much else to say. I just wanna let my work speak for itself. So, uh... Here, if you wanna take a look:

-

Oh dear... It looks like that demon lady Punishing Superbia had a brother, or a cousin, or something -- this new guy is claiming he knows her, and that he "had to see Cygnus for himself" or something along those lines. Either way Cygnus doesn't exactly seem super pleased with our latest visitor. I'm enjoying watching him squirm awkwardly, at least. Anyway, it seems like he also stopped by to give us the chance to score his (admittedly slightly risqué) outfit! Why not take a look?

Kama's Suggestion is awfully tempting... Even if Cygnus seems to firmly disagree.

It's almost too cute to be true -- but thankfully it's as real as I am! Let's take a look together:

-

Sealy March may seem a little icy, but I promise you she's got a warm heart! You can find this twee little ensemble right here in La Victoire, where it'll be available until May 20th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. March on down to La Victoire and try it on now! The seal compels you...

13 Punishing Gloriosa now available in La Victoire!
Okay, first my shop was a haven for adorable stray animals. And I was okay with that. I mean, I'm a super cute critter myself -- I can sympathize with those guys. But now? Now, apparently, it's a haven for demons. Not that I'm complaining! I mean, they're kind of fun to hang out with. I don't suggest playing cards with them, however, since they're awfully good at cheating. But now the problem is every time one of them turns up Cygnus feels the need to hide in his room until they leave. Honestly, he's just too shy and grumpy! And I need him around to carry the heavy things, like... I don't know, boxes. Anyway, looks like another of Princess Bellatrix's minions has broken away from her rampaging demon horde and now she's here to pay us a visit! Let's all say hello, okay?

-

Punishing Gloriosa is certainly a blushing beauty in all this pink and cream! You can find this glorious ensemble right here in La Victoire, where it'll be available until May 17th, 11:59 PM EST. Drop by soon! Maybe you can help me coax Cygnus out of his room.

14 Lonely Lucie & the Courtly Lucie Bundle now in La Victoire!
Looks like the newest in the Lucie line of dolls has just been released. A lovely lavender Lucie! Wow, try saying that fifteen times fast. Go ahead. I'll wait. You finished? Okay, moving along! I had a hard time convincing Cygnus to give me a few to offer up to you guys, since this newest Lucie is both purple and a doll (some of his favorite things), but he eventually relented. So let's take a look!

-

Lonely Lucie just wants to play with you... This newest Lucie comes with all sorts of pretty accessories and hairstyles, and is (almost) guaranteed not to be possessed by evil demons. You can find it now in La Victoire, where it'll be available alongside the Courtly Lucie Bundle which includes the original Lucie and every recolor to date!

14 Cash Shop Update: Battlefield Ballad Bundle
Looks like a battle of mythical proportions is about to unfold right here inside La Victoire! Mercifully it's not a real battle -- at least, I don't think so. I definitely don't want to clean up that mess, and Cygnus gets kind of cranky if I ask him to sweep more than twice a day. No, what I mean is we have a brand new bundle based on some fascinating mythology! Now, we star folk aren't too familiar with the various pantheons and whatnots you've got going on planetside, but I was so intrigued by this one particular myth that I read that I decided to design a bundle based on it! Let's dive into the fray with the Battlefield Ballad Bundle!

-

Uncursed Hero: The sole member of his clan untouched by the age-old curse, with the hero-light about his brow. Includes his leather armor-secured cape, yelling mouth, dark hair, boots, woad tattoos, loincloth, and battle-ready spear.

Morrigan's Omen: A queen may wage a war for land or for cattle, but what is even the bravest warrior queen to the goddess of battle herself? Includes her special third eye, prophetic gaze, dark red hair, bird skull headdress, antlers, gown, and dark cloak of crows' feathers.

The Forgehound: As a pup it protected the Blacksmith. It turns its teeth now to the protection of its King, and may its enemies tremble at the thought. Includes two protective poses, your very own Forgehound pup, and possessed eye.

Available exclusively in the Battlefield Ballad Bundle is Single Combat! Includes a dusty signet background, battle wounds, amputated arm injury, and your very own head on a pike.

Oof! That looks like it's gotta hurt... I'm kind of getting a headache just looking at that head on a pike. Anyway, this incredible bundle is available right now in La Victoire, so I encourage you to don your armor and come check it out!

14 Project Companion: Double chances of finding a Ruby Ticket!
That sneaky Cygnus! How does he always manage to do this? I'm pretty sure I saw him stuffing some extra Ruby Tickets into a few bags.

14 Limited Quantity Item: Counterfeit Maven
This new beauty seems like a real troublemaker to me... I'm not sure I should trust her! But I am sort of naturally predisposed to place my faith in anyone who dresses fashionably. It's perhaps my only real flaw -- I'm too naive when it comes to couture! And this outfit is just really, really gorgeous. What should I do, Gaians? What would you do if you were faced with someone in a gown this incredible?

-

The ruffles! The ruffles! Counterfeit Maven may not be the most honest woman out there, but she sure knows how to dress from head to toe. You can find this beautiful ensemble right here in La Victoire, where it'll be available until May 21st, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out! You can trust me, after all.

I definitely saw a pair of Jophiel's Wings and Unsettling Omen -- and I'm certain there is more! If you're interested in helping out be sure to pick up a copy of Peyo's Fables in La Victoire!

15 New Red's Hood recolors and the Deadly Hood Bundle!
Uh-oh, guys. Looks like a new gang of neighborhood toughs have moved into La Victoire. They're calling themselves the "Deadly Hood Gang", and I gotta admit... They're kind of awesome. They all brought us baskets of goodies, and it looks like they're going to pitch in later to weed our garden! Apparently they're pretty much fine with everyone provided they're not wolves? Seems like kind of a strange mission statement for a gang, but who am I to complain when I've been given some homemade jam? And their outfits are totally awesome, too!

-

The Hoods are even opening up membership so that you too can claim one of these amazing ensembles! You could go for Ivory's Hood, Rose's Hood, Denim's Hood -- or, if you'd like to collect 'em all, you could nab the Deadly Hood Bundle! That one comes with the exclusive Red's Hood -- I suspect she may be the leader of the gang.

16 Project Color Me: Win gold, items, or an amazing ticket!
Uh-oh, everyone. Looks like Cygnus has finally encountered every artisan's worst nightmare: artist's block. I saw him staring blankly at his canvas a while ago, paintbrush in hand, his thousand yard stare completely vacant. He even ignored my screaming repeatedly in his ear! Well this simply won't do, Gaians. We gotta shake him out of it! If he's stuck for ideas, then maybe he could apply his incredible recoloring skills (I mean, they're not as good as mine, but they're pretty nice) to something you guys choose. That's why I'm starting up Project Color Me to help my dear buddy! And to really motivate you guys to help, I'm offering bundles at 40% off until May 16th, 11:59 PM EST! If you're lucky enough to nab a Rainbow Ticket you'll get the opportunity of a lifetime -- but even if you don't, you'll still win tons of gold or an amazing prize!

-

With Project Color Me you could win up to four billion gold or incredible items like Wendy's Kindness, Pandamonium Pandaista, or Rosamund's Corruption! We also have some brand new, super gorgeous wing exclusives: Darda'il's Wings and Bartholomew's Wings. But even more exciting is the chance to a Rainbow Ticket, which gives you the awesome opportunity to partner with a Gaian artist to create a brand new recolor of an existing item! You'll not only receive twenty-five copies of your beautiful creation, but the recolor you create will then be used in a future mini Chance Item! There are a couple rules, of course, so I strongly suggest you check out our rules and FAQ available in the Project Color Me forum. This item will be in La Victoire until May 18th, 11:59 PM EST.

16 Limited Quantity Item: Vagrant Son
Rockin' in his ruby red, it seems like we're being visited by another fallen angel! I'm not quite sure what his story is, but I also don't really wanna ask -- sometimes it's just better not to pepper the guy holding the knife with questions. Even we star kittens know that golden rule. So I guess let's just take a look at his great outfit and call it a day!

-

Vagrant Son looks like he's been having it rough for quite a while, but his outfit still has an appeal, don't you think? You can find it now in La Victoire, where it'll be available until May 22nd, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out! Just uh, approach him slowly. He's lookin' a little jumpy.

Oh no... Cygnus' art block seems to have worsened some! I saw him eating a bowl of Sweet Poppin' Sugar Crusted Cereal Blast -- he only eats that when he's super bummed out, guys.

16 Punishing Ira now available in La Victoire!
The demonic hordes just keep thronging to La Victoire, apparently! I think Cygnus is going to have a fit. At least this newest lady seems a little more mellow than her kin -- I've mostly just seen her quietly poking about, reading the occasional book and sometimes pocketing something that isn't hers. I guess I can't hold it against her. I mean, she is a demon after all. She has to do SOMETHING bad. And I'm also a little afraid to annoy her, since I suspect she has something of a short fuse. But just like her sisters, she's got a killer outfit!

-

Punishing Ira is sweetness incarnate -- until you make her angry, that is. You can find her winning ensemble right here in La Victoire, where it'll be available until May 19th, 11:59 PM EST. Visit soon or suffer her wrath!

16 EI Report: The Prince's Rose and Rookie's Pursuit
It's Friday, and you know what that means: it's time for the EI Report! Does everyone have on their protective goggles? No? Just me? Well, I'm sure you'll be fine. ... Probably. It looks like we've got evolutions from The Prince's Rose and Rookie's Pursuit to cover today, so let's dive right into today's report!

-

The Prince's Rose: "Please," the girl called out to the shadows, "I am but a maiden of modest means, I meant no trespass."

A nebulous form shifted within the murky darkness, but no matter how the girl strained her eyes she simply couldn’t make its shape out. “Your intent is meaningless. You tried to steal my roses -- now, you are mine.” Such a terrible voice from the shadows; guttural and cruel, almost a growl. Terror made her blood grow cold as the figure took a step forward, just near enough that she could tell now it was a silhouette of a man. Although his face was obscured, what little light there was played off the medallions pinned to his silken vest.

“Come. I will take you home.” the shadowy figured ordered, his tone clipped and almost perfunctory. His eyes briefly shone in the darkness, otherworldly and cold, and before the girl could protest a towering wall of thorns grew up around her. Surrounded practically on all sides by the grasping thorns, she had no choice but to go down the only path open to her: forward, further into the dark forest. Summoning what little courage she had left, the girl began to make her way down the path. Beautiful, snowy white rose blossoms bloomed around her feet as she walked, only to blacken and wither a few seconds later. Through the thatch of thorns she could make out a land pockmarked and scarred, as if a great battle had once taken place there.

Eventually she came upon a massive castle, practically a fortress, with the thorns leading her directly to its giant doors. Her breath caught in her throat as the doors ominously began to swing open, its hinges creaking with rust and strain.

“Welcome to your new home, princess.” the voice sneered, practically in her ear, and she was given a forceful shove forward. The door slammed shut behind her and all was plunged into darkness.

Rookie's Pursuit: Minerva stared at the man’s hand as if she half-expected it to spontaneously catch fire, taking an uneasy step back in her oxfords. “I don’t -- “

“Of course you do.” the man interrupted, an easy grin spreading across his face. He inclined his head towards the dance floor, motioning at Minerva to follow with two fingers. “Come on. Let’s dance.”

Minerva remained rooted where she was, defiant, as the stranger calmly eased his way between couples to stand in the middle of the dance floor. He turned to stare at the detective expectantly, arms crossed in front of his chest as he waited. And waited. Minerva glared daggers at him but he still remained in the middle of that floor, smiling at her, patient as a saint. She could feel people starting to stare, and in that moment Minerva wanted nothing more than to evaporate into a mist, or simply disappear where she stood -- instead she relented, awkwardly picking her way through the crowd towards the man.

So much for remaining inconspicuous. It was either dance with him or stick out even more -- and Minerva simply couldn’t afford that.

The masked man took hold of Minerva’s hand, settling it lightly on his shoulder, before clasping her free hand in his. Their fingers laced together as he placed his hand on her waist and began his steps, clearly more experienced at this whole “ballroom dancing” thing than the detective was. Minerva miserably shuffled along in some sort of embarrassing pantomime of an actual waltz.

“You’re a terrible dancer.” her partner noted, his tone all too polite for the insult.

“Shut up.” Minerva snapped in reply. Even so, she could still feel a heated blush coloring her cheeks as she attempted to move a little more gracefully.

His grin hadn’t even faded slightly. “I’m August. August Milenario.”

“That’s nice.” Minerva replied absently. She was too busy trying not to squash August’s toes to manage anything else. Dear god, what she wouldn’t give for an excuse to leave right now. Anything. Anyone. Where was that stupid, awful thief when you needed him? Rather than obsessing about how awkward and uncomfortable she felt, Minerva instead focused her attention on scanning the room. At least she could try to work while she was being forced to dance.

Then, suddenly, her perspective changed. August dipped her low with a flourish as the song ended, and Minerva frantically gripped the front of his vest, terrified she was going to crash into the floor.

“I’m not going to drop you.” he murmured, reassuring. His smile was a little kinder now, less mocking. Minerva felt her breath hitch in her throat slightly as she stared upwards, their eyes finally meeting. His eyes were so… Blue. An impossibly striking shade, bright against the black of his mask. For a moment Minerva couldn’t even think of anything to say.

Realizing that she had been staring, Minerva’s mind snapped into a panicked overdrive. She pushed at his chest and August straightened, tugging Minerva up with him. The man respectfully took a step back as Minerva rearranged her skirt, her eyes now fixed anywhere but on his handsome face. “Uh… You’ll have to excuse me. I need some air.” she mumbled, starting to make her way towards the balcony -- and sweet, sweet freedom.

There was a genuine wrinkle of concern around August’s mouth as he followed her. “Are you all right? Here, let me accompany you.”

Minerva rolled her eyes, about to protest, but he’d already opened the door for her. “What a gentleman.” she muttered under her breath, voice practically oozing sarcasm.

Unfortunately that's all the time I have this week, but be sure to tune in next week for our next Evolving Item Report! You can see all these incredible items and more in La Victoire, and don't forget to vote in our Weekly EI Poll to let us know what your favorites are. See you soon, junior scientists!

19 Limited Quantity Item: Dip-Dyed Dotty
Y'know, Gaians, if there is one negative thing I can say about myself, I guess it's the fact that I lack a beautiful head of hair. Sure, my fur is stunningly sparkly and luxurious, and more than enough to make anyone jealous. But wouldn't I be positively perfect if I had a fall of luscious locks to go with it? And thanks to Gaia, that wonderful dream can become a reality. That's why I like it here so much, guys -- wearing a wig is pretty well accepted around these parts. And I've got a gorgeous new wig that I think everyone should try!

-

Doesn't it look great? Particularly on me. Sure, it might be a little big for my head, but I think I look fabulous. And with Dip-Dyed Dotty you can look almost as good! It'll be on sale until May 25th, 11:59 PM EST, or until it sells out. You know what they say: hair today, gone tomorrow!

19 Limited Quantity Item: Kama's Persuasion
The demonic invasion continues! When will someone close that gate of brimstone and fire? Jeeze, it's just getting ridiculous at this point. Especially since they all keep coming here! And while they are generally quite polite and insightful, these demons keep forcing Cygnus to hide in his room and then I have to do all the work. But at least they make up for it by offering us a chance to own one of their wickedly awesome outfits...

-

Kama's Persuasion could practically talk you into anything! Oh, what a wicked web he weaves... But that ensemble is just killer! You can find it right here in La Victoire, where it'll be available until May 25th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. Come grab it soon before this demon returns home!

20 Formal Invitation leaves La Victoire soon!
I... I can't believe it, Gaians. I thought my party would be a neverending fiesta of fun, but I think I'm starting to grow... Tired? Maybe it's because I've been awake for over four hours. I pretty much only stay awake in four hour intervals, you see, because napping is a very important part of keeping my fur as luxurious and lovely as it is now. But I think I'm partied out, guys. Which just means tonight I have to party EVEN HARDER to make up for it! But it also means that Formal Invitation will be leaving the shop soon, alas!

20 Make A Wish Upon a Star and you could win big!
Everyone here knows I came from the stars. Just look at me. Look at how I glitter, like a beautiful night sky brimming with twinkling balls of gas! So majestic. As a star kitten I feel a particularly warm regard towards the notion of wishing upon a star. Do you know how many people have wished upon me? Dozens. Literally dozens. That might seem like a relatively small number but how many people have wished upon you recently? Yeah, I thought so. But it's true that stars have magical powers -- they can grant all sorts of wishes! Particularly wishes of wealth...

With A Wish Upon a Star you're guaranteed a massive prize of gold! You could win up to ten billion gold, but no matter what amount you receive you'll end up wealthier than the stars themselves! (And in this context I mean stars as in celebrities, as in really rich people. Actual stars in space don't really carry a lot of cash.) Check it out now in La Victoire, where it'll be available until May 22nd, 11:59 PM EST -- and may the stars be in alignment for you!

20 Inconsolable Thirst now available in La Victoire!
Looks like today is another delivery day from P.U.G, everyone! Wonder what the old boy got me this time. Last time he tried to send me a jar full of bees, although I'm not sure why. Does he know about my bee allergy that makes me explode into confetti every time I'm stung? Or maybe he knows that I'm a huge fan of honey. Either way I don't hear any buzzing this time around, so I think I'm safe! Let's open it up and see what's inside...

22 Limited Quantity Item: Oola Tsukino
Ooh la la, everyone! Looks like we've got a brand new item to unveil tonight, and she's really somethin'! Even Cygnus seems to like her a little. They chatted at length about how they both like the color purple, and then she made some sort of comment about wanting revenge against her fourteen-year-old mother, because she was her daughter from some sort of future dimension, and then I think the conversation got kind of uncomfortable. Her outfit is absolutely killer, though! Take a look for yourself:

-

I gotta hand it to Oola Tsukino -- she really doesn't care what anyone else thinks! I respect a gal on a mission, particularly when she can rock all that hair. You can find her ensemble right here in La Victoire, where it'll be available until May 28th, 11:59 PM EST or until it sells out. Drop by soon and check it out!

23 EI Report: The Prince's Rose and Rookie's Pursuit
Happy Friday, science fans! I've got some important research currently heating up in the microwave that I desperately need to attend to, so I'll be brief! Let's take a look at the new stunning evolutions from The Prince's Rose and Rookie's Pursuit!

-

The Prince's Rose: ''Plink. Plink. Plink.''

The sound of the rain striking against the only window in her dank tower was her sole source of comfort. Here, trapped in the dark, cold and frightened… She’d never felt more alone, more abandoned. What was to happen to her? Was she to be killed? Or was she simply to remain a prisoner forever, locked and forgotten in this terrible tower? It was too overwhelming to think about. Instead she simply sat on the hard bench provided to her, numb from the inside, half-listening as the drops pattered softly against the windowpane. She could feel tears starting to well up, a few spilling down her cheeks before she angrily brushed them away. She might have been a prisoner, but there was no sense in crying. She wouldn’t let that monster see her cry.

Her head snapped up as the sound of footsteps padding against the soggy stones caught her ear. Through a barred opening in the door she could see a pair of frigid blue eyes staring at her, the rest of his face shrouded in shadow. “You will come to dinner.” he ordered, the iciness of his voice giving her chills. She shivered without thinking, wiping away another unbidden tear.

“Why?” she asked, quiet.

“Because I command you to.”

In a soft swish of silks the prince was gone, his cold blue gaze no long boring into her. The door gave an aching creak, slowly shuddering open. As the rain began to pound harder against her window, she pushed herself off the bench and stumbled towards the opening, her legs feeling unsteady. Candles alight with flame lined one side of the hallway, flickering in the damp, while the other side remained unilluminated. Figuring she ought to stay within the light, the girl slowly began to make her way past the candles. Her path led her through a fair part of the castle; it was full of fine furniture, ornate rugs, paintings and breathtaking tapestries. Beautiful and opulent, but completely empty. Where were all the servants? The lords and ladies? She wandered through the barren corridors, amazed and frightened all at once, until she finally came upon the dining hall.

The room was giant, with a high, arching ceiling painted over with a scene of a heroic battle. On the table was a feast that could have easily fed forty or more -- but the table was empty of guests, save for a shadow seated at the head of it. His face may have been obscured by the dark, but she would recognize those glinting blue eyes anywhere. Wordlessly, the girl sat in the only chair provided to her, her eyes raising to peer at the stuffed animal heads mounted on the wall. The candlelight danced within their glassy eyes, their dead stare almost mocking. She shifted uncomfortably in her chair as the silence dragged on, lowering her gaze down to her lap.

“Do you know much about battle?” the prince finally asked, shattering the quiet.

“No.” she replied.

“I know everything about battle.” Was his voice almost smug? “We fought a great war here. It was pure chaos. Thousands upon thousands died violent, glorious deaths.”

Her appetite was fading fast.

The shadow shifted in his chair, fingers drumming almost absently against the arm rest. “I commanded the troops, of course. They called me a terror on the battlefield. Until that witch…” He trailed off, his nails digging into the fine wood of his chair. “She cursed me. Me! And now I’m trapped here, stuck in this miserable castle until I find ‘love’.” His icy gaze returned to her, eyes narrowing pointedly. “So I’m sure you could imagine how… fortuitous it was to find you stealing my roses.”

“I wasn’t -- “

The prince cut her off with a sharp gesture. She could feel her heart leap into her throat as he rose, palms slamming against the table as the light played off the silver finery of his cape. The maiden shrank back in her chair, terrified, as the monster began to lean forward. She screwed her eyes shut tight, too frightened to even look at his inhuman visage, because what lurked in the shadows couldn’t be half as frightening as the real thing, simply couldn’t, and he was going to devour her whole --

But there was nothing. Nothing save silence. Her eyes slowly opened, heart fluttering in her breast, as she stared at the callous prince. No monster stood before her, but rather a man. Tall, with sharp features and a cutting blue gaze, his pale blond hair artfully coiffed. Her captor was… Beautiful. But the chill of his eyes upon her made her blood run cold as his lips twisted into a cruel smirk.

“Now love me.”

Rookie's Pursuit: The cool breeze brought with it a small sense of relief as Minerva stepped outside. She sighed softly as she wobbled towards the balcony railing, her feet practically screaming with discomfort from the damned heels. Resting her elbows upon the rail, Minerva did her very best to keep from frowning disapprovingly as August moved to stand beside her. She didn’t really succeed.

“Nice night,” he commented, apparently immune to her scowl. His breath steamed in the crisp air as he spoke, blue eyes scanning the city lights scattered along the horizon.

Minerva gave only the tiniest nod of acknowledgment as she shifted a few inches over, attempting to put some distance between her and August. She surreptitiously cupped a hand to her ear, realizing there was a new burst of chatter on the radio. Her heart skipped a beat, thinking the patrols may have spotted the Striking Thief -- but apparently not. They were discussing what to order for dinner. The ball was nearly over and there was nothing, not one sighting. All this effort, all this time wasted, all this silly dressing up, feeling humiliated...

“Sounds like the band might be finishing up. If you’re feeling well enough, maybe we could head back inside and -- “

Hand tightening on the rail, Minerva suddenly wheeled on August, eyes narrowing with indignation. “Look, I get it. You think you’re charming. Could you maybe go bother someone else? I’m sure there are plenty of ladies inside who would be a lot more receptive to your advances.”

August didn’t so much as bat an eyelash. A haphazard grin spread slowly across his face as he turned his body towards her, an eyebrow raised. “It’s a party, you know. You’re allowed to have a little fun.” he noted.

“I’m busy.” Minerva replied, her tone clipped.

August took a moment, measuring her words, before nodding slowly. He pushed away from the railing and turned to head back towards the ball. Minerva exhaled a sigh of relief, slumping on to the metal railing as he finally left, when she suddenly sensed someone standing behind her. Her spine snapped straight as she realized August had snuck up behind her, his steps as quiet as a cat’s.

“At the very least, to commemorate our first meeting; a parting gift.” he murmured, his voice suddenly causing an electric spark run up Minerva's spine. Something cold and impossibly heavy was draped around her throat, and Minerva spun around in a swirl of silk and ruffles, realizing in that exact instant what a complete and utter fool she had been until just now.

Apparently he loves you guys so much that he wants to hold a raffle -- you know, to show his appreciation, or whatever.

Jet: I still love you...

Cygnus: ... Right. So, uh. Look, a raffle seemed kind of like fun, so that's exactly what we're going to do. We'll be holding a raffle from now until May 31st, 11:59 PM EST for an incredibly amazing prize: any equippable item on Gaia that you want. Aside from Limited Quantity Items, of course.

27 Legendary Adora and Brownie Cervidae in La Victoire!
Have you guys ever heard the myth about the faun and the nymph? Apparently they met in a forest for tea party with all their woodland friends, and they were about to party super hard when a tree fell on top of their picnic blanket and they got really, really sad. And then the party was over. Forever. No, I swear it's an actual myth! I didn't just make that up right now, honest! And I was so inspired by this TOTALLY REAL 100% myth that I decided to recolor some outfits based on the lovely faun and nymph!

It's time for a bundle of magical goodness, everyone! Or should I say magical girlness? Or maybe even, if I dare, gurlness? I mean, neither of those are actually real words, but whatever!

Let's take a look at the Magical Gurls Bundle....

Akagami Tsuniko: A good girl gone bad, Akagami Tsuniko was transformed by the powers of darkness into a powerful super villainess. Although in the past all she wanted was to be loved, the only thing this powerful witch desires now is your obedience -- and your suffering. Includes her helpful bunnybot companion, trailing bicolored pigtails, glassy-eyed stare, ruffled top, lacy boots, and sparkling infinity bustle.

Adoring Friend: No matter what happens, the Adoring Friend will always believe that Akagami Tsuniko is inherently good -- she's her number one fan! Although she's trying to return Akagami Tsuniko to side of good, she can't help but get a little sidetracked recording her friend's exploits. Includes her camera ready arms, wavy dark hair, starry gaze full of admiration, dainty blouse, adorable pink jumper, and her socks and shoes.

Available exclusively in the Magical Gurl Bundle is Bendis & Jarilo the Magical Companions! These adorable little bunnies can talk and jump, but can they help return Akagami Tsuniko back to normal? Includes a bunch of bunnyriffic poses!

While Akagami Tsuniko and Adoring Friend are as bountiful as sparkling rainbows, the Magical Gurl Bundle is only available in limited quantities! So if you want to nab the adorable exclusive, make sure you grab your soon. They'll be in the shop until June 3rd, 11:59 PM EST, or until the Magical Gurl Bundle sells out.

30 EI Report: The Prince's Rose and Rookie's Pursuit
Friday at long last, everyone, and we've got some incredible science to explore tonight! Not only has The Prince's Rose evolved once more, but it's time for Rookie's Pursuit extravagant finale!

-

The Prince's Rose: “Now love me.”

His words rang in her ears, clear as a carillon, but she couldn’t bring herself to comprehend them. Instead she shifted uncomfortably in her chair, pinned in place by the prince’s piercing, expectant gaze. His expression hardened as the silence stretched on, his mouth pressing into a thin, pale line of withering disapproval.

“Peasant.” he spat finally. The word practically dripped with contempt. “That’s what you are, aren’t you? Look at those filthy rags.”

The maiden lowered her gaze to her lap, awkwardly smoothing her dress down over her knees. She came from a family of humble means, unable to even dream of affording the finery the prince was clearly so accustomed to. Although she would never call what she wore rags, it was just simple linen: functional and without ornament, and mended a few times over with patches of mismatched fabric. Rather than say anything, she only nodded her head once, unable to meet the prince’s judgmental stare.

His lip twisted upwards into a derisive sneer as the prince lowered himself back into his seat, settling back comfortably into the opulent cushions of his throne. “To think I nearly supped with a peasant,” he sighed, mocking. “How embarrassing for us both. I think I’ve lost my appetite. Return to your tower, girl. A pathetic urchin like you can do little more than turn my stomach.” With a dismissive wave of his hand the entire dining hall plunged into a dreary darkness, candles lighting to show her the way back out.

At least he had done her that courtesy.

The girl remained seated where she was for a moment, unsure if the prince still lurked in the darkness. But the flickering candle light showed no silhouette in his chair, and eventually she rose to her feet and began the long, winding path back to her tower. The door slammed shut behind her as she wearily laid down on her bed, her mind reeling from the day’s events. Despite the fact that she was beyond exhausted sleep would simply not come. She remained awake for hours, tossing and turning, until finally she managed to nod off. Strange sounds filtered through her mind as she dozed: metal crashing against metal, agonized screams, inhuman moans and gurgles.

Morning finally came. She’d managed a few fitful hours of sleep, and in that time the prince had apparently prepared a present for her: a pair of elegant sleeves, crafted from fine, flowing cloth. She marveled at them for a moment, stunned, before realizing a pair of cold eyes were peering at her through the barred window on the door.

“You will wear them to dinner tonight.” the prince hissed, cryptic, before disappearing.

And so her life fell into a bizarre rhythm. She’d manage a few hours of sleep and awaken to find a new gift: the sleeves, a fitted corset, a dress made of expensive silk. She’d be ignored until evening, when the door would suddenly swing open and the candles would show her the way, and she’d fumble into her new finery, the whispery touch of silk unfamiliar on her skin, and join the prince for dinner. There they would eat in a stilted silence, his icy gaze always on her, until he finally spoke.

“Now love me.”

But every time she couldn’t manage a response. Her silence inevitably led to a cutting remark from the prince followed by her prompt dismissal, and she would return to her tower to repeat it all over again the next day.

But not tonight.

The candles, as always, showed her the way back to her room, but she chose to ignore them. Instead she turned down a hallway she’d never explored before, running as fast as her legs could carry her. She didn’t care if the prince caught her, or his likely fury -- she had to get out of there. She at least had to try. Breathless, she managed to find her way back to the massive front doors, leaning all her weight against them to force them open. They slowly began to swing with a creaking groan, and a cold blast of air hit her in the face as she managed to escape the castle.

Only the ruined field, pockmarked by battle, remained between her and the forest. No time to think. She ran, panting and exhausted, she ran and ran and ran and ran, until she felt a sudden tug on the hem of her new dress. Crashing to a halt, her heart thrumming her chest, her eyes darted down to see a ghostly, disfigured man clutching at the cloth.

“Please,” he begged, his voice barely above a whisper, “please, make it end. All this pain… Please…”

Biting back a scream, the maiden jerked away from the monster’s grasp and stumbled back a few steps, only to feel a dozen more hands dig into her dress, her sleeves. A thousand screaming voices, all pleading for their suffering to cease, filled her ears. Unable to run, her limbs leaden with sheer terror, an ethereal apparition wielding a great blade suddenly appeared before her.

“The bloodshed must end.” it hissed, raising the sword high. She couldn't even manage a shriek before the ghost swung the blade down in a smooth arc.

Rookie's Pursuit: Gone. He was gone. Minerva cursed at herself for freezing up when it mattered the most. She felt her heart leap into her throat as she scrambled away from the balcony, her eyes darting around as she desperately searched for something, anything, to follow. There, amongst the swirling dancers: a flash of a silver-trimmed cloak, a head of black hair messily slicked back into some semblance of order, then gone again. Gathering her skirts, Minerva dashed her way back into the ballroom, a hand lifting to cup against her ear as she began to press her way through the crowd.

“I saw him – yes, I have a visual! Suspect is fleeing towards the entrance. I’m pursuing on foot – he’s there, right there, do we have someone by the entrance? No, the other entrance, the west entrance – “

Practically in a panicked frenzy, Minerva made her way to the opposite end of the dance floor just as the band finished their final song. The ballroom audience burst into applause as the detective realized she had completely lost sight of the Striking Thief. He’d disappeared again; slipped right through her fingers like oil. Her heart all but shattered as she noticed an open window opposite the entry doors, an intricate black lace mask resting lightly on the sill. She recognized it instantly.

Fisting a hand into her loose curls, Minerva tried to swallow the frustrated knot welling in her throat and instead turned away from the window, her face growing hot with rage as the team on the other side of the radio receiver continued to yell into her ear. Humiliated, again. Minerva let herself scream silently, suddenly feeling the necklace August had draped across her neck. Those gems… they were definitely real. She’d handled the piece enough to recognize its brilliant stones, its distinctive weight; the Thief had hung the real Spellbound Sapphire around her neck, as if leaving a mocking reminder of just how utterly she had failed. When did he even get his hands on it?

What an unbelievably pompous, smug, mocking, miserable piece of –

Minerva played the night over and over in her head as she hailed a taxi and walked back to the precinct, shivering in her elaborate gown, oblivious to the puzzled stares that followed her as she made her way down the sidewalk. How could she have been so stupid? She was so focused on catching the thief, on proving herself to everyone, that she hadn’t even thought… His thefts were usually flashier, neatly coordinated. He always made them an event, a display of how much better he was than everyone else. But this theft had been so quiet, so personal. Minerva felt as if she had been specifically targeted. Why? What was his angle?

Sighing softly, Minerva pushed her way past the doors leading to their precinct's office. It was late – well past midnight, in fact – and the place was practically empty, save for a few stragglers working overtime. Throwing on her most comfortable coat and seating herself at her desk, Minerva started searching on the name she’d repeated a thousand times in her head: August Milenario. It didn’t take long for the results to return just three hits; and unless the Thief was secretly twelve-years-old, female, or deceased, he’d given her a fake name. Of course. She’d expected as much. Minerva dejectedly slumped forward on to her desk, planting her face against the cool wood with a hollow thunk.

“Hey, Rookie.”

Minerva didn’t bother lifting her face. The absolute very last thing she wanted to deal with right now was her coworkers’ usual teasing. “Go away,” she responded at first, voice muffled, before letting out an audible breath and adding, “What is it?”

“You, uh… You did good.”

Brow furrowing, Minerva lifted her head to peer at the small collection of fellow detectives who had gathered around her. “I was supposed to get him this time,” Minerva groaned.

“Yeah, but you managed to retrieve the target, didn’t you? I’m sure its owner is pleased, so it wasn’t all in vain.” replied another, shrugging his shoulders.

One of her fellow detectives flashed her a broad grin, nudging her lightly with his elbow. “Besides, you really went all out. I don’t think we’ve never seen you act so girly before, y’know? Dancin’ with people and everything…” His partner’s booming voice interrupted the meeker detective before he could finish. “We were all taking bets on how soon you’d blow your own cover!” he bellowed, laughing alongside his teammate. “Was he your type?”

The boys trailed off in a chorus of laughter as Minerva slumped deeper into her coat, holding her hands up to hide her cheeks as they flooded with color, blushing furiously with embarrassment. Still, she couldn’t help but laugh along with them.

“Thanks, I guess.” she managed. She was starting to feel a little better, at least. Maybe she hadn’t caught him this time, but he was bound to steal again. He couldn’t resist humiliating her for long, and Minerva knew she would be prepared. When the Striking Thief dared to show his face again, this “rookie” detective would be ready to take him down. She just knew it.

31 Rose Sea and the Boundless Sea Bundle in La Victoire!
Yar, mateys! 'Tis a great day to head out on the open sea and celebrate the sailing life, 'tis it not? Hint: it 'tisn't. Because I frankly hate the idea of being anywhere near the ocean. Not only do I worry about what the salty air will do to my luxurious fur, but we kitten stars are a lot more dense than we look. I can hear you snickering over there, Cygnus! No, I don't mean "dense" as in "not very smart", I mean it as in "heavier than a super massive star." But just because I can't appreciate the ocean up close doesn't mean I don't enjoy some sailor-riffic fashion! Which is why I've decided to feature this lovely new recolor...

Rose Sea know how to tie at least fifty different knots while still looking fabulous!
