Our former houseboy was under the impression that I was his lover and was terribly disappointed to learn that I was not and never could be. He is advertising himself as my studio "apprentice" but was actually designated to simply clean my studio and my painting implements. He is also advertising himself as a "former Spirit Questor" but was taken on an out-of-town Quest only once, and simply to carry our bags. My daughter-in-law Ivy hated him and wanted me to get rid of him. He was into magic, though I refused to teach him anything. He stole many things from us before leaving.
Now he opened an account called "Majica de Alkemiya", but we all call him "Mahikurakot de Kalakal-Kiyeme". It is written in nuno-sa-punso Tagalog and sounds like it was written by a prostitute who was suddenly dropped by her patron.
