Toddler Entry 2
Dear Journal
Mom's been teaching me my letters and if I do really well she'll start teaching me to spell. Maybe soon I can write in you myself and not have to tell Mom what to write! I can't wait, I really want to use my colored crayons.
Mom says we're going to visit Auntie Sun, who's one of Mom's oldest friends. She says that Auntie Sun has four kids like me! Four's a lot. There's Edmund who's the oldest. Mom says he's a real sweety but that Edmund won't remember her and to be nice to him. I'm always nice. Next there's Gavin, Keiran and Willow. Mom doesn't know as much about them because she's never met them. And she doesn't want to influence me, whatever that means.
I'm kind of worried, I don't want to meet so many new people at once, but it'd be nice to get a friend and I guess four would be even better. Mom says that everything will be ok because she's going to be there, and so is Auntie Sun who's a good mommy and won't let her kids scare me. She also says, if worse comes to worst we can leave, but I have to have made an effort to get along. Well, I guess I can do that.
Can we play with the puzzle now? Well Mom said yes so we're going to put a puzzle together till we have to go!
Love, Ask
Written for Ask by Shiny word for word, but signed in one of his crayons.

RP Entry 1
Ask was napping when Shiny stubbed her toe, hopped around in agony then ran into the coffee table. After not so gracefully falling over the furniture and grabbing her knee in yet more agony she froze to listen for the tell tale signs of a woken toddler. Hearing none she grinned, victory was hers! Slowly she got off the floor and limped about picking up the books that had fallen off the table.
Ask snuggled into Shiny's neck groggy and a little grumpy from his nap. He was always like this when awakened from his naps even though he was three. He never wanted to see new people and god forbid anyone attempt to pry him out of Shiny's arms.
"Did you sleep well Ask?" Shiny asked as she stroked his hair and back comfortingly.
"Uh-huh, I think I had a dream. I don't remember it though."
"Maybe you'll remember it later."
Ask didn't think so. He always felt like he had dreams but never had he remembered a single one. It was actually rather annoying. He was constantly plagued with the feeling that he was forgetting something important.
Speaking of important he noticed that Shiny was limping on the way to the couch where they usually had their post nap snuggle. "Mom, are you ok? You're walking weird."
"I'm fine Ask, I just bruised my knee today after stubbing my toe on the sideboard." Ask looked curious. "Can I see?" He asked.
"Sure." Shiny rolled up her jeans so he could see the bruise already forming just under her kneecap. "It hurts but it's not too bad." She put him down so he could look at it properly. Ask peered at the bruise with a frown. He didn't like to see anyone hurt. Especially not people he liked, and Mom was definitely one of those. Without really thinking about it he reached out to touch the bruise and with a little glimmer at his finger tips he healed the bruise.
Shiny's eyes widened. "You healed it Ask! That was wonderful thank you! I knew your powers would show up soon! We'll have to practice this new power." Ask was excited, his Mom thought this healing power was great. Maybe his friends would like it too.

RP Journal Entry 2
Ask was enthused when he found a loose floor board. Why it was a perfect place to keep secrets! It was in a nice secluded part of the house and it was just the right size to keep Cleopatra (the rubber duck that he found) and various other trinkets inside. It was even big enough to hold his pictures. He liked drawing but didn't like sharing his art.
He patted the closed floorboard affectionately. He'd already found a lot of fun things to put under it. An abandoned ball, colored and occaisionally shiny rocks (he'd had to sneak those past Shiny's shiny radar) and an old partially used artbook that Shiny didn't use anymore were all included. He even had snacks stored in there for late night nibblings.
Ask felt smug every time he walked over the hiding spot. Shiny didn't know about it. No one knew about it. It was Ask's secret spot and he wasn't going to tell anyone about it. The fact that he was so pleased about having this secret didn't even cross his mind as odd. To him, having a secret was pretty much as fun as climbing trees.
Clearly Ask needed more secrets, if having one or two made him this happy, then he should collect them. Maybe other people had secrets too? With that thought in mind Ask started to watch and observe everyone to see if they had secrets that he could find out. Sure enough, Shiny had a secret stash of cookies. Well, apparently secret cookies tasted the best too.

RP Entry 3
When Ask sprouted two pairs of wings he was vaguely concerned that everyone would think him a freak. And then he remembered Adeline that snakey girl and knew that he just couldn't be freakier then that. Two things concerned him more; he was starting to remember his dreams, and he'd ... traveled.
Remembering his dreams was abnormal. He'd never remembered dreaming in his life thus far. And the fact that he'd dreamed that Shiny would break her laptop again and it came true the next day was weirding him out a bit. Maybe all those feelings of deja vu he'd had (and if he was honest, still had) was because he was dreaming these things before hand but not consciously remembering it.
He'd decided to keep his prophetic(?) dreams to himself. But he'd been unable to hide his traveling. One minute he'd been thinking about going into Shiny's work room and asking to go out for ice cream, the next he'd been walking on streets of gold for two steps and then he'd been back in his house again, but in front of Shiny's door.
When he told her about it she suggested it might be one of his powers, like healing. And upon testing on the various scrapes and bruises that Shiny'd acquired while clumsily chasing down shiny things he discovered that his healing powers had grown as well. The sprouting of his wings formally introduced him to child hood, and the pesky powers that were growing and developing.
On the upside, he seemed to have grown out of his shyness.

Dear Journal
Never again. I will never go to a halloween ball ever again! Seriously, if every social gathering is like the one tonight I'll never go. Everyone just turns insane! I think I'll blame that snakey woman, she was there tonight.
The night started with brownies to begin with. That was good. And then I hung out a bit with Isolde (the swan princess), River (a sheep) and Kei (Oberon, king of fairies). Then Trouble arrived in the form of Gavin (Some cat thing, I don't know), as usual.
He seemed offended when Isolde called him a kitty cat, and he seemed to be having some sort of tiff with Kei. Luckily Isolde dragged Kei and River out to dance and separated the two of them before it got nasty.
Gavin and I were talking about dancing and how I wasn't a fan when someone or thing pantsed me! So Gavin saw my boxers! My halo boxers! Then he dragged me out to dance. I don't even know how to dance! He told me I should be fine, and everyone would be jealous since the two best looking boys there were dancing together!
So as soon as I start figuring out a swaying motion that seemed to work the music changed to a slow dance song. Gavin didn't let me escape! He even had the guts to call my halo boxers cute. Ugh. I was hoping that he'd just let me forget about it, but I should have known better. To make matters even more embarrassing, I tripped over my own feet and fell on my behind when he whispered about my boxers being cute in my ear.
Then suddenly out of nowhere the king of all fairies appeared like a vengeful eagle or something. Kei swooped over, knelt beside me, hugged me protectively and proceeded to rip Gavin a new one. He kept hugging me until Gavin left (without a fight, I don't know how to feel about that) after commenting on how much he enjoyed my boxers. Great. Just. Great.
After that there was the confusion of the doors slamming shut and stuff but the main point of tonight seemed to be me getting dragged around by cute guys by the hand.
I don't even know why I was blushing so insanely over everything! I mean Gavin's just another boy, why would he care about my boxers? Why would I care if he saw them? But I did care. I cared a lot. And then Gavin was calling me good looking, and cute and teasing me about my cute boxers. And I really feel like I'm over using the word 'cute' but that's just how my night's gone!
I also don't know why I have mixed feelings about Gavin just handing me over to Kei on a silver platter. Or why Kei was all huggy and protective and stuff either for that matter. I'm really confused.
On top of all that. When I got home and talked to Mom about all the Gavin and Kei stuff... we had The Talk.
I kind of just... want to hide in my closet for a couple years. But I guess that'd be bad.
I'll never look at anything the same way ever again.

Child Entry 4
Dear Journal
I'm finally moved into school and I have to admit that it's pretty great. My floorboard at home is still safely secured and chock full of fun things. I'll have to find a good hiding place in my dorm room before my room mate arrives.
Luckly my room mate is River, and since we get along just fine, I think staying in this dorm will be fun. I hope he moves in soon. He changed into child form between the last time I saw him and the Halloween ball. So did Isolde. She finally got her wings.
Anyway, the dorm has two beds so I took the one on the left side of the room. I think there's going to be a good hiding spot behind the dresser for this book and whatever fun things I find while at school.
Classes start for me soon and I'm kind of looking forward to it. I have all of these cool new school supplies, even a set of markers, and a sketch book. I've been thinking of drawing some of my dreams and some of the places I've seen while Traveling.
I'll write again after I find a hiding spot for you.

Dear Journal
We have lockers! With locks! It's pretty great. I'll be able to keep all sorts of things in a locked locker! The halls get pretty busy between classes but I've been practicing Traveling so it should be really easy to maneuver around.
River's still not here yet, but he'll be here soon enough. I've been taking my time and learning everything I can, even if today is still my first day. I have to finish my homework for tomorrow, but I wanted to at least crow about the lockers.

Teen Entry 5
Dear Journal
Last night I dreamed about a really embarrassing day at school. I was really hoping it was one of those dreams that Mom used to have when she was in school; you know the ones where she went to class naked? Yeah well apparently I'm just not that lucky.
My dream started out with a normal day. Getting up and getting dressed, eating breakfast, going to my locker... then it got bad: I had a pop quiz in Math, and I hadn't done my homework right. Then I Traveled to English (like I always do to avoid the crowded hallways) and pretty much popped out of the air on top of some kid. My pencil broke. Then I spilled my lunch on the way to my seat, and to top it all off I had to go to the rest of my classes wet because one of the worlds I Traveled through was down pouring!
So anyway I woke up hoping beyond hope that just this once my dream was just that, a dream. It's kind of weird, how knowing it's going to happen doesn't mean I can stop it. I wonder if I told someone about my dreams, if they could stop it. It's weird knowing the steps I'm going to take every day. I mean some dreams are more detailed then others. And yeah I've been able to tweak some things for others when I dream about them. But the dreams about myself, are always fulfilled. It's almost like I forget my dream as I'm doing the very things I dreamed about, only to facepalm a moment later when the results happen.
And let me just tell you. Knowing I'm going to do all those irritating things doesn't make me less embarrassed. Nope. Not a bit. Though maybe it makes me seem more resigned then surprised at the embarrassment. I don't know. I'm just glad today is over. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Dear Journal,
I haven't had time to write lately, been to busy living. I've gone on lots of hikes lately. The area surrounding the school is pretty amazing. It's all wonderful for exploring. I showed Isolde around the other day, She's Kei's best friend.
... I'm blushing at the page for no reason. Just because I mentioned Kei. SIGH. This is getting ridiculous. I blush at the littlest thing now days. I hope I get over it soon. I mean really? I'm a teenage boy, blushing is for babies. Didn't I already go through my shy phase?
Anyway, looks like I'll be hanging out with Isolde and Kei more often from now on. I'm ok with that, I'm over what happened at the Halloween party. If the super cute Kei wants to drag ... If Kei and Isolde want to drag me around that's just fine by me. But I am so taking them hiking some time.

Teen Journal Entry 7
Dear Journal,
If I titled my journal entries this one's name would have to be, "How Did I Not See that Coming?"
Today the plan was to go see that new scary movie with Kei and Isolde. They're both wimps when it comes to scary movies. So my job was to be the stoic and likely hold both their hands. Turns out I only held Kei's hand.
It's like all the mental comments about how cute he is all culminated in the limo ride to the theatre. Suddenly I realized that I like Kei. Apparently he likes me too. We held hands walking into the theatre and out of the theatre... and he let me put my arm around him and... Oh, right, Isolde wound up not watching the movie with us because of some club thing, I'll admit to being in a mental frenzy at finally realizing that this crush has been happening for weeks when she was talking about it.
She met us afterwards with coffee. She's a good friend. Maybe Kei and I should matchmake her with someone.
