So I was searching through the GalNet archives. . .

And came across a description of a lovely little place: La Maison De Tous Les Plaisirs. Apparently, it was a high class establishment for socializing and entertainment run by Jade Constantine, several years ago. I wonder, whatever happened to it? Was it shuttered for good or did it evolve into something else? I don't know if Ms. Constantine reads the IGS anymore, but I would very much like to visit, if it--or a more current incarnation--is still open.

It is not, and if it were, it would never be the same. A specific time and place and atmosphere that shant be recreated.

Why do I find it totally unsurprising that Vea is fangirling over Constantine?

It clearly existed. The Galnet archives do not lie. I'm saddened that no no longer exists. It seemed like an interesting place and a good setting to meet the enigmatic Jade Constantine.

You are making less and less sense. Did your lover leaving you addle your brain that much?

I'm not sure that I can fangirl over someone that I have not met, nor know much about. I am simply interested in meeting her.

Trust me when I say that this fact says enough about your personality for us to make a number of... fairly well-informed inferences.

Given that one of Ms. Constantine's more notable accomplishments was figuring out how to allow several hundred relatively small corporations to wardec your gigantic alliance for free (prior to CONCORD's conspicuously hasty intervention) - rather than at a cost of hundreds of millions if not billions of ISK - it would be a bit remarkable for you to not be familiar with her.

I suspect you are spoofing us (again), my dear.

That said, I do miss some of the Fraction's larger-than-life personalities, Jade herself, Uncle Cosmo, uh... all right, two. And of course, I always enjoyed getting an update from the sex dungeon aboard Revan's large phallic battleship, but she was her own deal.

I am, of course, familiar with who she is. That does not mean, however, that I do not want to meet her and get to know her a little bit. Like The Mittani, I would not say that I knew him until I really started talking to him in person. He's much more charming and dashing than most people make him out to be.

I want to see how Ms. Constantine is in person; that is all.

Fair enough. Ms. Constantine possessed, and likely continues to possess, an intense personality that I suspect you would find better observed from afar - a True Believer, as it were. But I misjudged how much of an effort you would make in our little corner already, and so far be it from me to judge how well such an encounter might turn out.

I'm not sure what you mean by your little corner. Can you elaborate?

La Maison used to be a pleasant venue filled with open hedonism for all, till Ms. Constantine decided to behave like the tyrant that she purported to detest and began to ban anyone who committed the crime of merely disagreeing with her in politics.

The place hasn't been worth visiting for the past 7 years - so why bother?
