Echo Bazaar - Flophouse lodgings no more!

[hwango]

I have acquired and spent my 80,000 Whispered Secrets. I now have 7. But I officially have Premises at the Bazaar. Woot!

Alas, you only ever get 4 words. Your 100+ attributes give you 2 words each, but you only ever get words for your top 2 scores. The current configuration of items (which nets me my highest possible scores without pushing anything back down under 100) ranks me as an irresistible, magnificent, terrifying and lethal gentleman.

It doesn't feel like it took that long to get all of the Secrets - not as long as I thought it would feel like, anyway. I think when I did my math I forgot the 10 extra actions you get from your Echo refresh.

Wow, the only way I accumulated that many Confident Smiles was by having people over for dinner all the time. I'm sure they'll come in handy when you get around to Persuasive, though.

I am currently Inescapable, Sagacious and Lethal. Which sounds like a decent basis for a character, really.

I've been doing my calculations on how long to expect grinding secrets to take on 80 actions a day - it's actually 90 if I feel like spending Fate on a second candle again, but so far I haven't. But it's tempting - if nothing else, I'm 1 fate short of being able to reset my "Mysterious Benefactor" story with an opportunity card, so I could finally pick up the Watchful shoes.

I really have no idea where the smiles came from - I mean, I know they're an occasional payoff from opportunity cards and so on, and I know I haven't been watching the number besides thinking "I have a few", but 51 is a significant accumulation. Good problem to have, I guess.
