sholio | Fallen London again

I finally managed to get the Masquing-raising rare successes on both the eating-deviled-hearts option and the dancing option! I've only been trying for three days ... (If you succeed on the hearts option, you get a boost to persuasive that makes dancing marginally easier.) Since I've already got all the under-27 companions, I'm hoping to get my Masquing up to 40 and obtain one of the higher-level ones before the end of the Feast. (Collect the whole set! The Canny Costermonger is my favorite, even though she's not particularly useful in terms of attribute bonuses. She's adorable.)

And yes, I suspect how deeply bizarre this game must look like from the outside. :D
