Your Risk Taking Level: Medium

What's life without a few risks? You're willing to be daring when the time is right. You know that there's no reward in life without risk. You just always make sure that you look before you leap.

And I totally spaced out on my fatherly duties, been too busy getting settled in again. The day before we left New York May hit a huge milestone.

She stood up. My baby girl's on her way to becoming a walker.

We were at Bee's place and she used the dog to get to her feet. Turn my head and she's standing there with her hands on the puppy and fighting to stay up. She stood for a full minute before she had to plop down again, but since we got home it's all she wants to do. Thank God Prom is bigger than Irina and patient as the day is long, she's always crawling after him to do her little workout routine.

Zee says she's as obsessive as I am. I say she's as stubborn as her mother.

Anyway, I'm off to drive four hours to a town that has the jail cell I'll need for my latest stunt, then off to get eviscerated. I'll let you folks know how that turns out.





...seriously, I'm kidding. Late rehearsal, we're working on a new sawing in half illusion. Catch you guys later.

What we have inherited from our fathers and mothers is not all that 'walks in us.' There are all sorts of dead ideas and lifeless old beliefs. They have no tangibility, but they haunt us all the same and we can not get rid of them. Whenever I take up a newspaper I seem to see Ghosts gliding between the lines. Ghosts must be all over the country, as thick as the sands of the sea.

“You marry her, and you marry her quickly.”

Tommy looked up from the diaper bag he was packing to find his aunt standing in the doorway with a strange expression on her face. In the warm, weathered features that still held so much beauty, he saw more pain that he could imagine his sweet, vivacious aunt ever feeling.

“Aunt Zeph?...”

“Tommy…you know how we lost your uncle, moro?”

“Before I knew about the power? Massive stroke…after? He died fighting for the Fraternity.” He replied, dropping the spit rag in his hand and moving to sit on the edge of the guest room bed. “Why? What’s going on?”

( Zephyr Fotilas sighed as she moved into the room and sank down to sit beside him, perched daintily on the edge with her hands on her knees. So delicate, too delicate, but in the knotted hands that curled into her slacks he saw all the strength he only wished he had. )

A tumbler shifted beneath the pressure of the lock pick, bruising his ego yet again as his heart all but skipped a beat in hopeful excitement. Drawing a deep breath, he held the pick steady and experimentally tugged his wrist against the handcuffs.

You Are Fairly Normal in Love

When it comes to love, you have fairly normal ideas and expectations. Your relationships and ideas may be a bit quirky at times... But you see love the same way as most people do. Why You Are Normal in Love You are normal because you first fell in love when you were 18 or younger. You are normal because you believe a long distance relationship can work. Why You Aren't Normal in Love You are abnormal because you kiss on the first date. You are abnormal because you have been in love with two people at the same time.

For the record? Not only is the kissing thing insane, but seriously, this meme is unfair to those of us who've lived more than once. Sure, I love more than one person at the same time: I'm marrying Zee, I still love Bess, and I'll go to the end of days loving Pandora. She's the reason I'm here.

Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta go kill my cousin before the Darkness beats me to it.

Takes place some time after this.

You have accepted power. With it, you must accept the consequences.
