Hello! I'm more of a lurker, so I hope I'm not stepping on toes* but that bookmark is so beautiful and fun, I had to go dig my favorite bookmark out of a book!
1. You are absolutely right, but can I propose Gen's child choosing bookmarks as their trinket of choice? Imagine the little royal being brought up seriously to inherit their parents' position, studying economics and diplomacy, but also being an absolute terror none of their tutors can prove is stealing their fancy bookmarks. (Of course they will have a child and of course Gen will be wiping a tear of pride and joy from the corner of eye the first time the kid presents him with a stolen prize -- while Irene promises Gen bodily harm for his influence...)
2. Haha, your guess is better than mine! :P
3. My favorite bookmark is a golden image of a cat in a Victorian-ish ruff based on the image Mark Twain kept on his mantle to use in stories he told his children. (I think that's the story, anyway)
