She has been made aware that by calling her scam an Association and arranging for it to be tax free, and, more stupidly, publicly identifying even her lowest tier patrons as members of that Association, she is indeed beholden to organize a meeting for those members at least once a year. She was shocked at the idea and still is terrified, but someone in her close entourage (can't name names as I have heard this in a private conversation) has convinced her that this only needs to be a thing on paper and will not actually have to take place. The call to email is about all her patrons will hear about it.
I gave up thinking about Isabelle Jarvis' mood a long time ago, as it will have no bearing on any of the activities anyway. She will never be anything more than the clown you meet in your nightmare, desperate for some comic relief from the horror endured, yet always to be disappointed again because she is the horror, personified.
Not following the legal guidelines for the Association to have a yearly meeting in the appropriate format/ manner, etc. and failure to disclose honest and truthful info to the members is just another nail in Fanny’s coffin if the French government investigates the validity of the Association under French law. Îf you don’t follow the legal guidelines to obtain tax free status, and fail to keep accurate accounting records, fail to follow established guidelines for an Association, and spend tax free money on gluttonous personal items, personal travel, etc., you can lose the tax free status and most likely have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in past taxes and hopefully penalties. I hope Marie Larson has not been involved in doling out legal advice to the shady 50% Shittelaine.
Fanny thinks the law does not apply to a little orphan toile obsessed princess like herself. She has a handful of expensive life lessons hurtling towards her like a speeding train. I think she will try to cancel the Patron extravaganza at the last minute, e.g., cue the monkey pox scare at the Dump.
Tick Tock Fanny! I do hope there can be a limited edition toile fabric with Fanny being chased by Ruby, the disgruntled peahens and chickens, pissed off sheep, the chapel restorer, multiple Ians, the tax authorities, and screwed over former employees, friends, and volunteers. The toile can also feature the Douche Lord dressed in his high heels and sporting Fanny’s yellow dress, clutching a lace edged handkerchief in one hand and a glass of wine in the other hand while chasing a pregnant hedgehog across the lawn.
The toile fabric can also feature the lovely photo of Fanny with the sad and unfortunate brown mist coming out of her behind as she is standing next to Davy. It would also be good to incorporate Angry Nutty on the baby carriage somehow and Snorts doing the Charleston.
P.S. Fanny the yellow dress is just a dress. It does not provide you with a cloak of invisibility or relieve you of accountability for your lies.
