The Princess's Wardrobe
Child Journal Entry 1
Halloween is coming up, and I'm really excited! There's going to be a ball at school and everyone is going and I'm going to dance and it will be great! I've been doing really well in ballet, so Daddy got the tailor to make me a swan princess costume! I can't wait to show Kei!
I have white tights and white ballet flats and a feathery skirt and leotard and Marta's going to put more feathers in my hair and I have a gold and white feathered mask to wear! I can't wait to go! I hope someone will want to dance with me.
Mother said it was silly to make all of this fuss about a halloween party, but Daddy said it was ok. Mother wants me to move into the dorms at school soon. Very soon. I don't know why she's always grumpy. It's almost like she doesn't like me, but she's my mom, so I know she does.
I hope I get a nice roommate! I'll have a LOT of packing to do. I have too much stuff. But it's almost time for the Halloween dance, so I have to go get ready.

Fly Like an Eagle
Child Journal Entry 2
Ever since I met Ask and saw his wings, I've been waiting for mine to come in - and they finally did! I don't think they are in all the way yet. They definitely aren't big enough to fly with.
Ask has two sets of wings, but I only have one. That's ok though! Mine are really pretty - all white and blue, just like the teacup Daddy and Mother gave me when they brought me home. I hope they're big enough for me to fly with soon.
I'm really enjoying it at school so far. I'm making a lot of new friends! Ask is there- he's getting really big. So are River and Kei. Nadia should be starting soon. And my roommate is their other sister, Willow! I feel like part of their family. I like all of them. Except Gavin's kind of mean to Kei sometimes, so I always side with Kei because he's my best friend.
I wish it was easier to be friends with everyone. Nadia doesn't seem to get along with Kei or Willow, so I can't hang out with all of them at once, and Willow is not very girly so it's hard to hang out with her at all. They seem to think Nadia's bad, but she's only ever been nice to me! I don't think she's bad. And then Gavin tries to be smooth all of the time but sometimes he's mean. And they were fighting over dancing with Ask at the ball. I don't know why it's so hard to just have everyone get along. I like almost everyone- why can't everyone else?
Also people were pairing off at the Halloween dance. I didn't really get to pair up with anyone. It made me sad. I'd rather have boys fight over me like Ask got then be all alone.
Oliver dropped some stuff off for me the other day, and he said that Daddy and Mother weren't fighting as much now that I was in the dorm. It makes me feel like I was making them fight. But I didn't want them too fight! No one else's parents fight because of them. It isn't fair.
I think I'm going to call Oliver and get him to take me to the mall. Maybe I'll buy everyone something and then they'll all be in a good mood so no one will fight for a while. Then we can all just get along without any nastiness.

All Grown Up
Teen Journal Entry 1
I've finally gotten some curves! Not BIG ones, but still, I don't look like a little twerp. I have hips and enough of a chest to show of some cleavage to show off in those cute little scoop neck tops. Kei is a godsend when we go to the mall - he can actually tell me how I look in stuff instead of just what I look LIKE. Also, Kei and Ask - FINALLY together like they should be. I like to think I helped nudge them together a little bit, but I knew their love would win out in the end, either way. They're just meant to be together.
My love life is still on the . . . well, let's face it, it's non-existent, WILLOW has more of a live life then I do. Her and the Yellow Kid are talking more and more. Whether it'll evolve into anything, I don't know. I, on the other hand, am about ready to go clubbing just to get some attention. I bet I could convince Kei to go one night, and hang out with the regular humans, so I can go out dancing. Maybe to one of those dress up goth clubs or something, so I can say the wings are a costume. I'm not looking for anything serious right now, I just want attention!
Wow, rereading what I just wrote makes me sound really shallow, but I guess a lot of teenage girls just want attention. And I don't think it's too much to ask - it's not like I've heard from my parents for a few months! Some boys drooling over me is NOT that much to ask.
Maybe Granddad will take me to Italy or something, I bet they'll notice me there.

WHAT IS GOING ON?
Teen Journal Entry 2
You will not believe this! One of the other kids killed some people. Regular humans. So now all of the regular people are scared of metas and the Elders and the people who actually run the Academy are putting all of us under lockdown!
We can't even go to the mall by ourselves! This is craziness!
All of us who didn't do anything are stuck in the SAME building as the kid who MURDERED PEOPLE. He should have to face the justice system like anyone else, not cozened away! Special treatment for us is just going to make people more scared of us. We're all being punished for what he did.
I don't want to be stuck on campus. I'm going to go talk to Nadia - she'll have some ideas about this.

This SUCKS
Teen Journal Entry 3
I am bored out of my mind being stuck on campus all the time! I was going to sign up for an outing, but Kei and Ask didn't really want to go, and I couldn't find Nadia, and I couldn't find Willow either, which would have been just about perfect because Yellow Kid went AND Gavin, who, admittedly, is a jerk sometimes, AND their tall hunky friend. But I didn't want to go without someone I actually, like, KNEW, so I didn't go at all. And now I'm just sitting here wishing I had, because I am so bored. Shopping over the internet just isn't as fun, and Kei and Ask make me feel like a third wheel, and Willow's nice and all, but we're not super close, and I can't even find Nadia to hang out with her, which I can do now that Kei's busy with Ask.
I'm getting regular phonecalls from Granddaddy, but not Dad or Mother, but maybe I should just take Granddad up on his offer to spend some time away. The anti-meta stuff doesn't seem to be too bad across the water, he says. Maybe I will go visit him over the holidays. I won't cause a ruckus in the private jet, even if I don't cover my wings up.
Maybe I'll even take Kei and Ask!
Wait, I'd just be the third wheel again. I guess I'll just go on my own.

La Bouche Noel
Teen Journal Entry 4
So, I decided to go home for the holidays - what with everyone absorbed in their boyfriend or siblings, and the whole drama making everyone sad, there isn't much going on at school - Oliver picked me up and Daddy was super happy to see me. Mother barely looked up from her Cosmopolitan until she needed it refreshed. Just like before.
Anyway, I was kind of surprised to find out that we wouldn't be spending Christmas in the mansion - we'll be going into town tomorrow to stay at the big house there. My granddad- Piotr - is coming into town with his retinue. Daddy had a suite of rooms at the town house redecorated for me, in blues and pinks. The house is apparently six stories plus basement and garage, and I'll be on the fifth floor. The sixth floor is a glass encased, heated pool! I'm taking my swimsuit and hope to swim in a blizzard.
I'd love to bring Kei along to scope out guys with me, but he sticks out more then I do - a bit coat will cover my wings - and he and Ask are still in puppy love stages. I'll just have to do what I can by myself. And I'll bring back some neat gifts for everyone, of course. And I should be back in time for New Year's Eve. I think.
Anyway, I have to go order some things with Daddy real quick. More stuff for the room, and then for the posh parties. I don't know if I'll have to hide my wings because of this formal dress, or what, but it should be interesting.

And a Happy New Year . . .
Teen Journal Entry 5
My granddad is amazing, this pool is awesome, and city life is great. It's like nothing back home - and I mean at the mansion or at the academy. For one thing, with mother and Dad and me, plus Granddad and his personal assistant and hangers on, almost all the upper floor bedrooms are full (floors three, four, and five are all bedrooms). Plus there's the staff, and we have just as much staff here as in the country, except they're all parttime, I guess? But they have their own rooms too. So the house is smaller and it feels a lot more full and busy. I really wish Kei or some of the others could have come with, because this place is amazing!
The pool is definitely my favorite part. The entertainment and game rooms are on this floor too, but the pool is in the front. When it's dark, like it is now, I can see the lights all over the city glowing in the skyline, and there's a light snow falling, and it's just amazing. I would love to go flying in it, except I know there is a lot more dirt and smog than it looks like right now. Plus my wings are too wet. I've taken to hanging out in the pool a lot - I'm no use in the kitchen, and the adults spend a lot of time talking. Granddad comes up here to swim laps every morning, and sometimes his assistant Luigi comes up t take a dip as well, but usually it's just me. Dad's too nervous to let me wander the city by myself, so I stay floating around on the raft and watching the sky.
The city, by the way, is so less claustrophobic than the academy and the dinky little town. We went out to see a musical - it was called Le Paon Et Son Epouse - an no one looked twice at my wings at the theatre. I don't know if they thought I was dressed like an angel because it was Christmas time or what, but there were no issues. And Le Paon was a great musical - I want to live in the city all of the time! No one looks at me weird because of the wings - there are a lot more weird things people could be looking at in this city - and there is just so much to do. I took my camera and snapped pictures when we went out to show Kei the hair and clothes, and Granddad bought me a whole new warddrobe for the city (I snuck in some differnt sizes and colors for Willow and Nadia and Kei, and I'm working on getting some more boy's clothes, but I don't think I could get those past granddad as easily).
Aside from the clothes, and the musical, and Christmas dinner and all (I got a piano from Mother for some reason - I don't even play. But I guess it's nice to have a baby grand?), the other big thing that happened is that Granddad invited me out to Italy with him later this year. I said of course I'd go - and I might be able to bring one or two of the others! It's so exciting! I hope things will have quieted down after all that horrible drama from those kids so life can go back to normal - but if it doesn't I'm going to whisk people away to Italy with me - just for the joy of it.
Luigi just walked in - I'm going to set the journal down and see if he wants to watch a movie or something after my wings dry.
