Username: Midnightglow18 Nightmare: Sign Entry:  Sign was less than thrilled to have to write this paper. "I love my brother Hazard that's about it.. I guess though I love rainy days, I love playing music. I'd love to not be writing this paper since I don't have a lot to love and not a lot to fill the stupid space. I'm not really big on this hunter's jubilee festival I don't like the red and pink hearts stuff all that much. I guess I love fish, sea snails, sea slugs, atherjellies. I'd love for the bell to ring so I could get out of class and go play my guitar. I'd love to graduate from the academy and go on to study music at Grendel."

 Username: Kivras Nightmare: Dianthe Entry:Dianthe sighed. She didn't like being told to write about her feelings, as her feelings were difficult to pin down most times. But she had to give it a shot.
I...love being able to do what I want. I love the world. I love the skies. I love the seas. I love the flowers and the trees. I love the way people in love look at each other, and I love looking at people I like.
But I don't love my dad.
What I would love, is to get vengeance.
Here, her writing became erratic, as if she was trying to stab the paper with her pencil.
I love the idea of making him suffer. I love thinking about how many of his dreams and ambitions I can one day crush. I love fighting.

 Username: Kivras Nightmare: Ryuuko Entry:It was difficult to think of just one thing she loved. So, why not try and fit everything?
I love my mom, and I love my siblings.
And she thought, and suddenly, she had it!
I love plushies! I really love to collect plushies and trinkets, and each plushie has a name! They're super special to me, cuz I got them from being good at games. I love being able to win things for myself...but what's even better is winning things to give to others! that makes them happy. So, I think I love that too. I love feeling love, and making pothers happy.

 Username: Kivras Nightmare: Ti Kitha Entry: UGH, what a time-waster. Why couldn't they learn something actually worth knowing? Or even get a free grade? Well, she had better at least make something worth turning in.
Love is kinda tricky. How do you know if you love or like something? Even if there was a feeling in your tummy, sometimes it's not right.
Thinking, she remembered something.
Even though we fight, I think we like each other. So, maybe a 'like' can turn into 'love', even if at first, you don't feel it. So, I think I love the challenge that love presents. Trying to separate feelings of friendship from the feelings of wanting to be together forever. I think I can feel it...sort of.

Entry: A Soliloquy About Love
by Melogene Nightshade
I don't know if I've ever felt love. What's it feel like? I asked Frit, and she said it's the feeling you get when your plant grows up big and healthy. She's really weird. Weirder than me probably! Anyway, I'm not sure I qualify for this assignment, but I know plenty of people who do.
Did you know that people can love when they're dead? They can! And they don't just love other ghosts either. Sometimes they love living people. None of them love plants though. At least not as much as Frit.
Do plants love other plants? Can plants love people? We may never know.

Nightmare: Cheri Cordial
Entry: A Lesson in Love
Also Known As: Gettin' Watchu Want (;
by Cheri Cordial
Let's be honest: love is all about giving... but mostly receiving. The romantics can wax poetic about it as much as they like. At the end of the day, the most important thing is what you get out of it, whether it's the fuzzy wuzzies, or something more material.
That said, you can't only take. I mean, you can, but that won't work out for you in the long run. Even if it's purely platonic, you can maximise what you get by manipulating what you give. Think about what your loved one wants. That's your bartering chip. Learn when to use it... and more importantly when not to use it. If you can't get what you want, you are under no obligation to give them what they want.
Otherwise I guess... be kind all the time, love unconditionally, always say your prayers before bed, et cetera. Go ahead and get married, have a bunch of kids, and live happily ever after.

Username: Micillia
Nightmare: Stachys
Entry: A Flower
There is a lot to love in the world, Satchas thought. I love my friends, I love plants, I love my wings. So narrowing it down was extremely hard for the poor kid. He thought back to his garden. It had been hard to convince someone to let him enjoy the responsibility of having his own garden, but once he did, he loved it. The nightmare loved how a garden gave back what one put into it. He had spent a long time perfecting the perfect plot of dirt to plant his tulip bulb in. It payed off, as a few months later, a bright pink flower popped up, just for the little nightmare. He loved that plant, and though sad when it finally wilted, he knew if he took care of it again, it would come back, and give him another glimpse at the beautiful flower.
Nightmare: Sieversii
Entry: Surgery Sweet
Sieversii laughed as she read the prompt. This was a slice of cake! Ooh, cake, now she wanted some! Back on topic tho, the nightmare loved candy, cakes, sugars, and oh so many wonderful things. She loved making them, eating them, and even giving them away, although not as much. It was great bringing a smile to anyone's face, especially her own, via the wonders of sugar and spice. Sie sat there for a moment, thinking about all the wonderful sugars she wanted to have when she got home. Caramel apples, candy corn, chocolate, oh there were just so many!
Nightmare: Lika
Entry: Best Dog Around
Lika shyly closed her blind eyes, thinking. It wasn't hard, what she loved was her service dog, PomPom. The mischievous dog was always by Lika's side, helping her find her way, not get lost, and manage being blind. Lika loved her dog, and loved how PomPom enjoyed retrieving things for the little nightmare. Lika tried not to take advantage of Pompom's natural instinct to fetch, but the puppy just made such cute noises when she brought back whatever it was that Lika had dropped. When not busy at work being a service dog, PomPom loved bringing Lika sticks and other found things for the nightmare to throw.
Nightmare: Hachi
Entry: Me
Hachi scoffed. He knew what he loved, himself. How could anyone not love themselves simply to pieces? What was the point of going around if one did not enjoy their own selves? Exactly, they could not. Hachi went on, mostly mentioning his beautiful, flowing wings, and his elegant, silky soft hair. He had put a lot of work onto both of those, spending sometimes upwards of an hour in the morning working on his immaculate appearance. Hachi smirked, no one could come up with a better essay than that. It was foolproof. Wish a swish of his hair, Hachi stood up to turn in his fine work.
Nightmare: Plein
Entry: Someone no longer here
Plein did not like this prompt. Not at all. He sighed, and pulled out a pencil to start writing. He wasn't really sure what to write about, or rather, who. In the end he settled for writing about someone he used to know, but never knew their name. It had been so nice having someone to share books with. The older nightmare, maybe a junior? had given Plein such attention and love, reading to him, telling him about books he could read in the future, it was all so hopeful. When the nightmare graduated, and ended up moving away, Plein was heartbroken.

Nightmare: Tybalt
Entry: A story about love... Tybalt was not the strongest writer ever, but they supposed they had something to write about here. They stifled a yawn as they picked up their pencil, then started to write.
'My mom is a famous musician so we get a lot of people following us around trying to take pictures. Normally I don't care a whole lot but sometimes it gets really annoying. I was having a really, really bad day and I didn't want anyone to take my picture, but they wouldn't leave me alone. So my big brother Nex helped block me from view. It was really nice of him. He doesn't talk a lot but he shows that he cares by doing things for me and Nyxxie. I'm not very good at showing it so I guess I should work on that.'
There. That should do it. They should really consider getting Nex a present or something soon...
Username: nepsah
Nightmare: Willis
Entry: This assignment was surprisingly hard! Narrowing down examples of feeling some form of love was hard. Willis had to sit and think about it for a while. Eventually, he picked up his pencil and started to write.
'My moms are really supportive of me so I feel a lot of love for them? Its hard to talk about just one moment because its all the time! I guess a memorable time was when someone was making fun of my ears and my moms comforted me when I got home. It made me feel a lot better. I hope this is an okay example...'
He'd probably get points docked for that, but... well... he couldn't really think of any other examples!
Username: nepsah
Nightmare: Kahoni
Entry: Oh this would be easy ! Kahoni smiled wide as they began to tap out their answer on their tablet. Writing was hard for them, thankfully Miss Lyra and her substitute were understanding of that and let them use the device.
They decided to write about their family, mostly how their dad made sure to spend special time with each one of them to make sure they all got the same amount of his attention. Sometimes they shared with their twin Kaholo because they wanted to, but if they didn't feel like it it was okay.
By the end of the lesson they'd practically filled the page with ramblings about family events. It was probably too much information, but they really, really loved their family.
Username: nepsah
Nightmare: Keola
Entry: Much like their sibling, Keola was pleased with the assignment's topic. While they also chose to write about their family, they focused more on the nights where they'd all get together and practice singing or dancing. Even if Kekoa wasn't a big fan. He always joined in in the end anyway. After their dad would make them all desserts and they'd sit around the TV and watch some movies before bedtime. Those were Keola's favorite nights. They started to write about helping their dad out in his flower shop, but ran out of time. Oh well! They could write about it some other time.

 Artemus stared at the paper in front of them for the longest time. It wasn't that they didn't understand the assignment, but talking openly about feelings of any kind was just...foreign to them. Neither Mother nor Cillian really seemed to mind that they didn't talk a whole lot. Well, Mother was sometimes concerned that Artemus might be doing something out of obligation rather than because they wanted to, but Artemus knew their mind enough that they could communicate that in simple yes/no answers. They had to write something down, or else they'd fail the class. Finally they just went with the simplest thing they could think of. It was probably a very bland answer, but it was still an example of love, right? "I love my mother. When she makes food she tries to make things I like, and will not make me eat something I don't like as long as I try it first. I try my best to eat everything she gives me to show that I am thankful for the food that she makes me." Tarot grumbled softly inside, her face as impassive as ever on the outside. Love? Well it was February, expecting any other sort of subject was probably futile. With a sigh Tarot bent over the piece of paper in front of her and did her best. "My mother adopted me cause I didn't have any family, even though she's already got lots of children and some of them are her own. She treats me the same as all of them. I'm not any less important just because I'm not her actual kid. It's a really nice feeling to be treated the same, and I try to do my best to make Mother happy to pay her back for the love she gives to all of us. I always keep my room neat and try to help with the chores without being asked. I try to do my very best, because I want Mother to be happy and not worry about me."

 Florence's wings fluttered with his barely contained enthusiasm as he wrote. He loved Hunter's Jubilee and the fun of celebrating with his family! "I've got a really give family and most of us like to spend time celebrating Hunter's Jubilee. Even though not all of us are directly related to each other we still think of each other like family, which I think is amazing and I feel like I am so lucky to have! Since I don't have anyone extra special to celebrate the holiday with, I try to celebrate with my family. I make sure everyone is enjoying themselves and watch after my younger siblings so they can play while my parents rest. I also try to win as many souvenirs and treats to bring back and share with the family members who don't really like being around noise and crowds. It's also the one time I try to help my purple dad in the kitchen, though I'm not very good at cooking, because it's just so nice to have that feeling of togetherness and love that comes with the holiday!" Vincent thought for a moment before starting to write his answer. Honestly the holiday hadn't meant much to him at all, expect there'd be new toys in the orphanage to play with and free candy for days, even weeks, afterwards. It was only recently that he'd started to actually think about the meaning of the holiday. Hunter's Jubilee is about new beginnings for me. I was adopted by Giselle during Hunter's Jubilee. Both of us had lots of people around, but we also both felt really distant and alone at times. But the holiday brought us both together, so now we don't have to feel alone anymore. I think romantic love is really nice and all, but I also think having the love of a family is very important. It gives you a feeling like you're supported, and that no matter what happens there's always going to be someone who loves you and cares about you. Romantic love might be more shiny and fun to look at, but it doesn't always stay that way. Familial love is more steadfast and enduring, something that everyone really wants and feels so much better for having."

Nightmare:Frit (j)
Entry: Science
Frit truthfully did not know why this Hunter's Jubilee was a thing. Love? Well Frit loved learning, which is what they were supposed to be doing in language arts class, not talking about feelings. Well, its not like Frit had a choice, so she hunkered down and though. She didn't think it was "love", but all of her experiments needed attention. That was like love, right? They needed watering, weeding, tending, all of the important things. If they didn't her experiments would all be for naught. Yes, that was it, Frit "loved" in the way of how she kept the plants alive, watched other people to learn which social conventions to use to get what she wanted, and she "loved" learning new and exciting information. It was all so amazing when something surprised her, like, did you know that Cherubs think their ears used to be wings? Fascinating.
Nightmare:Ginger (f)
Entry: Candy Hearts
Ginger knew all about this topic. She had already given her valentine a gift, and it was as witty as could be. The nightmare could remember it like it was yesterday, she had written; "Forget Butterflies, I Feel the Whole Zoo when im With You!" Ginger grinned just thinking about her own wit. And see? It was especially witty because she was kinda like a butterfly, so the whole "forget butterflies" was just too funny. She hadn't gotten a reply, sadly... but there was always plenty of live in Ginger to give out to whom ever needed it. Valentines day was great.
Nightmare:Verbena (f)
Entry: Dear Moon,
Do you know that these letters are for you? Of course you do, you're smarter than that. I trust you. Whatever your choice, I will comply. You have a life to live, dreams to dream, and stories to tell. Do not stress over a matter like this. Whatever happens will happen. You are the moon, please don't force yourself to become the sun. If we are not together I will understand and I will treasure you still. Your fate is your own, because in the end, no one can tell the moon when to rise.
Sincerely, a Cherub of your own.

 Laurel tried not to bounce with excitement in her seat like a child. She loved this holiday, and was really looking forward to getting out among all the different activities after class was over. Thankfully the topic they were given to write about was enough that Laurel could focus on writing her paper. "I don't have a family right now so it's usually just me and my boyfriend around the holidays. I can be kind of oblivious and I'm not always good at picking up cues so I'm probably a really troublesome girlfriend sometimes, but I do my best to improve and show all the ways I care! When I know Flax is busy with studying or classwork I'll often look after and play with his familiars so he doesn't have to worry about them getting fed or lonely. If I'm in town and see a snack that looks particular interesting or tasty I'll get it and bring it back so we can share. I try to make time to see and talk to him ever day, even if it's just a five-minute conversation. I try to make sure he eats and takes care of himself when he gets really focused, and I try to do things like walks or movies so he gets little breaks here and there to relax. I know I can definitely improve more, but he always looks super happy any time we're together so I like to think I'm doing okay so far! I know he looks out for me too and I'm happiest when we're together, so I try to communicate that to him as best I can."

Entry: Miss Lyra was away, and there was a substitute in the class. Odessa wasn't exactly sure how she felt about that. She didn't exactly love language arts, but she did like Miss Lyra. Now this new teacher wanted them to write about love. ... In celebration of the Jubilee. Odessa wrinkled her nose.
Love makes me feel funny. I'm from the cache, so I don't have parents. But Grimms are supposed to have a pack, and they're supposed to love each other like a family. I want a pack. I've already found one pack member. They're name is Marine. Marine really likes sports, and the outdoors. I guess I love Marine. They're part of my pack, and that's sort of like a family. I don't think I've told Marine that I love them. But I think they know. Marine's pretty smart, even if they try to hide it. Maybe on day I'll tell Marine that I love them. ... Like a pack member.

Nightmare: Piper
Entry: Piper felt restless. Which was generally exactly what Piper felt in any sort of class that involved sitting down. It took all of their effort to listen to what they were meant to be writing about. Love. ... Huh. Someone they loved.
I love my Mom. She's the funniest! And she's really nice, too. My Mom loves jokes. Especially practical jokes. She even plays them on me, sometimes. It's the best! She's really nice, and even teaches me how to set up cool jokes. It makes me happy that she's my Mom and she loves me. Right now she's Above at work and I'm Below at school, but it doesn't matter how far apart we are. We still love each other. Mom sent me a card for Jubilee, it made me feel loved to get a nice card like that. I hope I get to see my Mom soon, because I miss her!
