What a bee-you-ta-full morning!!! The sun rising, the ghosts wailing, the electric magnetic fields pulsing, and my new pixie friend bumping around in his doll house enclosure! Isn't he cute?!? I ended up not naming him Peyton Rylie Glitterson, because he's not really glittery and the name "Shatter the Biter" fits him better! Guess why! Guess! Come on, guess! Yeah, it's because when he screams he shatters things and he bites anybody who tries to hug him!! Look, I've got five bites already! And they SPARKLE!!!!

I showed Shatter the Biter to Mrs. Bherdol, the "supernatural sentient beings" teacher, and she said he is from the tribe of pixies that focus on framing children for crimes they didn't do! Cliché stuff like a broken lamp, a baseball flying through a window, the dog's doo-doo not being picked up.... Shatter would likely focus on the baseball/window thingy and probably phones being dropped on hard floors! I can't hear it when he screams, but all my windows and glass thingies do! At this point there's more glass than carpet on the ground! And my glasses are completely ruined!! Mrs. Bherdol said I should release him so the other pixies from his tribe don't raid my dorm room, but he's soooooo cute! And sparkly!!!! I'll keep him just two more days, and then release him into the world! Then he can fly free once more!!! And in two days, I'll have collected enough pixie dust to fill two milk jugs! I'm sure I'll find a use for pixie dust... maybe I'll put them on my stuffed animals to make them fly! Then they can battle @Meggatha's animals for supremacy!!! It'll be so cool!!!!!

Dear Somebody,
School schedules have been handed out, and my classes include, uh... They include...ummm...Fi....um... I can't remember. Oh well. Claude will just take me to classes like last year. He remembers everything. I think. Anyway, I look forward to classes. Or have they already started? I can't remember.

In other news, I can't find my keys. Or my sprinkles. Or anything. Things keep going missing and turning up in weird places, and items keep breaking. Two of the lamps in our room have broken, and Mattie thinks it's my fault. Maybe it is and I've just forgotten. But still. I also keep seeing flashes of light out of the corner of my eye, and I keep thinking I hear tinkly but slightly malicious laughter; Claude keeps looking at Nothing and hissing. Then again, he always does that. But still. The floor is also covered in sparkly glitter that smells like the forest, but as soon as I touch it, it disappears. It's really weird.

I think other students are having trouble as well. I saw this one girl run by in the hallway with her hair so terribly knotted that there were several broken pairs of scissors and a handsaw stuck in it. And another kid had his shoes tied together, and he tripped and knocked over 10 people.

Normally I'd talk to @Walls and maybe play a board game with him, but he's still sleeping/hibernating because their still working on S-Al. I think they had to stop construction because all the workers had concussions from flying books. There's Kristopher, but @Kristopher is still learning how to play 10 dimensional chess and Claudette keeps trying to eat his lizards. Maybe I'll go visit @Atlantica and see if she has any cupcakes. She always puts lots of sprinkles on them. *trips over nothing on the way to the door and a decorative table across the room breaks* "OMG Nobody! Stop, like, breaking all my stuff. Like, RU-DAH!" *sigh* I hope whatever-it-is stops soon. I heard someone say the snack machine has started attacking people- and that's where I get some of my sprinkles from!

Farewell for now,
Nobody

{Yo!}

{I've been bunking with Krissi for awhile, and it's... uhm...}

"MORRIS! WHERE'S MY 85th LIZARD?!"

{Did you check the shower yet?}

... *running away*

{Krissi is super cool and fun to be around, but... he's kinda overbearing sometimes. A lizard and three snakes crawled into my Journal... one won't come out.}

*LOUD HISSING*

{ACK!... Anyway... I heard about Attie's reaction to the pixie cut... and now she has a pixie of her own... that explains why the lizards are out, the boiler has burst, and Krissi's clothes are wrinkled beyond belief.}

*LOUD SCREAMING IS HEARD*

{...That came from Kristopher's closet... I think he found out... yeesh...}

{I wonder how Scilph is doing.}

Pixies? Yes! Pixies!! I can't believe how unguarded that forest is and how unguarded the creatures inside of said forest are. Like hey I thought it was common knowledge that pixies generally cause chaos and mayhem wherever they go and that they are pretty much IMPOSSIBLE to tame, but like hey maybe not everyone has this knowledge!! It's not like I'm angry about this but my lizards are kind of sensitive to pixie dust and/or ANY 'PRANKS' THAT PIXIES MAY PULL ON THEM!! Multiple lizards came home the other day covered in that sparkly pixie dust. I've sprayed my room with Pixee-Bee-Gone but they've got me whilst I've been out and about.

And @*Atlantica*, when you decided to take this pixie out of it's natural habitat you did realise that it's entire clan (Tribe?) would follow it? And like, I know pixies seem like a lot of fun and games but they're really hard to tame and get under control. They also prefer living in large groups which just makes them even harder to get under control. I mean you'd have to be at LEAST a tier nine in The Handling and Controlling of Magical Creatures.

*Shakes head* Sorry I've been going on haven't I.
In other news! I've been enjoying having @Morris staying with me! He's a great guy!! @Walls could have some competition here! Haha! (No I'm kidding Walls I love you *Makes heart with fingers*) It's been fun having somebody new staying though! I tried to get Morris to have a two person party (Or four person if he wanted to @Scilph and uh, Eralonia) last night but he wouldn't have it. He told me that you can't just throw parties at 3:40 in the morning, especially when you have all the lizards sleeping! And I said Hey these lizards like to party, come on it'll be a riot!! And he was like Krissi why do you always want to throw parties late at night/early in the morning, It would barely even be a party. And I was like Hey we have over 93 reptiles here to party with us. And he was like Sorry it's a no from me.

Oh yeah and @Nobody doesn't seem to come down here when Walls isn't here and like it's not like I'm bothered but that kinda sucks right? *Blushes and pushes hair out of face* I mean I think I'm just better at single played puzzle games like Solitaire and Sudoku and that balancing game, you know the one? I have been practicing 10 Dimensional Chess and I guess I'm getting the hang of it? I can get the whole 'I banish your High Bishop to the 7th Dimension' part but when it's get's to the capturing the other player's pieces from other dimensions I just have no strategy! I like button mash but in my brain and without buttons. You know.

Uhm... hello, Journal...? Small faerie, would you like to say hello?... No? Alright...

So... uhm... there is a sylph-- *chuckle* type thing in my room... *LOUD, ANGERED BELL JINGLING* O-oh! I-I did not me "thing"... No, I did not think it was funny... I am sorry... I did not mean to hurt your feelings... *soft, contented jingling*

It seems that I have found Atlantica's pixie. What was your name...? Shatter! Shatter the biter! that is correct.... but your tribe name was...? Can you enunciate that? I will translate that on Goggle Translate... hold on a moment.

Okay! His name is... Scintillula. Pronounced SIN-till-OOL-uh. It means "sparkle" in Latin. He flew into my room, and will not leave. He is quite kind! He has cleaned the kitchen, wiped the windows, and delivered me compliments.

*a smooth, complementing jingle*

Ooh, you are so sweet~! I wonder why people have been saying that you're a little beast? You are nothing like that! He keeps saying things like "I will worship you forever" and continues calling me "Queen". Haha! I wonder why that is. I will go do research on Scintillula's tribe. I will head down to S-AL.

*a hurried, excusing jingle*

What? Well... I DO suppose I have a few more hours of free time... I will be receiving my schedule today! So I should stay here... thank you for the advice, Scintillula!

*a unnoticeably malicious, but fake-nice jingle*

Dear Somebody,
@*Atlantica* did not have any cupcakes for once, but she did offer to make me some, and showed me her new "sparkly bestie for ever and ever" (SBFEE) who turned out to be a pixie. Which explains a lot. I've forgotten what it explains, but I know it explains something. Her arms were covered with tiny bite marks that glittered with what looked like pixie poison. When I asked how'd she gotten them, she decided to show me, which resulted in chaos; she opened the door to the high security pixie prison, er, doll house, to hug "Shatter the Biter" (or Scintillula), which seemed to be what he was waiting for. As soon as he was out, he /screamed/, and startled Atlantica into letting him go. He then flew out of the room, breaking everything as he went, and several other pixies flew into the room, also breaking things, and long story short, I am now hiding out invisible on the ceiling in an attempt to hide from the pixies. I'm pretty sure I saw @Gretel up here a few minutes ago; she had two pixies hanging onto her ears. I think Atlantica is still running around trying to catch them all. I tried to stop her, and I healed her pixie bites, but she just ran out of the room and seemed disappointed that the "sparkle" was gone.
*cat screeching is heard in the background*
Oh dear. They've found Claude. I better go rescue him before Claudette starts eating pixies.

Farewell for now,
Nobody

Oh. My. Gosh. I let @Atlantica stay here alone for a few days and what does she do? Release an angry, vengeful mob of pixies on the entire student body!! *face palm* Why... just why....

No time to focus on complaining though. I'll have plenty of time to do that later. Right now, we need a survival strategy. As you all probably noticed-- *girl runs screaming past with several pixies pulling at her hair* -- the pixie tribe is on a rampage. I went to talk to Mrs. Bherdol, the teacher who helped Atlantica earlier, and she said (while pixies released the Kelpie specimens we were going to dissect next week) that the pixies are just having some revenge for Shatter the Biter's capture, and if we wait this out we should be alright. Until then, I suggest stocking up on lucky charms. Four leaf clovers, rabbit feet, Illuminati symbols, any items from the year 1985... hang them up in your dorm room and the pixie "pranks" will go from dastardly malevolent to mildly annoying. At least, they should. Oh, and I suggest staying away from Atlantica. Her psychic powers allow her influence over good luck. Seeing as pixies pretty much personify bad luck, they despise her. Our dorm room is a complete wreck from their havoc. There's ink and tomato juice EVERYWHERE. Just... don't even ask. I've moved her to a safer location for now, but knowing her she'll escape and get in another luck war with them. *something explodes in another wing of the school* That doesn't sound good.

Well... even with the pixie and ghost infestations, it's nice to be back at school. Next week classes start (I think) so I should probably enjoy this all-day-mayhem while it lasts. And this has given me a good opportunity to meet my professors for this year. We've been working together to try and capture some of the nastier pixies. Times like these make me thankful that I can control bad luck a bit. Once all this is over, I say that everybody should meet up in Cafeteria 3 for some relaxation and ice cream sundaes. I don't know about you, but I'm so tense my left arm gears keep locking up-- *pixies dive-bomb Pacifica* Get away from me you sparkly FREAKS!

I know that these fairies are bad. Really, I do. But... I can't help it... I kinda like them. Maybe because my Great-Great-Uncle on my cousin's side was a changeling. I don't know. These fairies have such ingenious minds. Have you looked at how intricate their traps and flying attacks are? It's almost like a new art form! The pixies kind of like me too. Not all of them of course; I've been tripped, pinched, and floated a fair amount. But a few of them like to listen to me sing. Two of them won't let go of my ears, they keep whispering song requests. They're like talkative, shiny earrings. @Atlantica would be jealous I bet. ~sound of a whistle blowing~ What's wrong Whistler? You want to hear the pixie tribe anthem AGAIN? ^Snapping sound^ Alright, but only because Snaps agrees.

War Song of Scintillula's Pixies:

Flying in between the trees,
Glowing underneath the leaves,
What was that? What was that?
Setting traps that make a crash,
Punishing these human trash,
Who did this? Who did this?
Stealing remotes and car keys,
Snatching away their babies,
Where'd it go? Where'd it go?
Forever we will serve our King,
And his lovely captive Queen,
Steal her away! Steal her away!
We are mayhem and chaos,
We thrive where order has been lost,
Fear the Fae! Fear the Fae!





Scilph

Ah, that was a lovely tune, @Gretel! Very accurate. Especially the part about the captive Queen. Guess who it is?

I am currently in the Fae Forest, Forbidden to those not Faerie and Frightful. Scintillula lead me here, telling me over and over about a wonderful surprise... which I gullibly believed. I am now in a prison cell composed of thorns. Occasionally, a pixie will come by, bow mockingly, and then laugh its taunting giggle (which sounds like the tingling of gentle bells) and flies off. Sometimes, Scintilla will bring his friends by and point at me, speaking in a language I cannot understand (I speak a little Pixan, but they have over 400 languages: Faero, Slyphish, etc.) and they all make very rude gestures at me. I nearly grabbed one, but it flew off.

In English, they do chant the War Song... it turns out Scintilla was the King of this tribe. He has captured me to make me his "Queen". He calls me "Sylph" instead of "Scilph". I am surprised they actually think I'm an overgrown flightless pixie... they are sly, but slightly dim-witted. I have been bitten more than once, and I am getting tired of this... I request help.

Also, welcome back @Pacifica! How are you? Have you been bitten and/or pranked quite yet? Also, if you aren't too busy, do you mind checking on Eralonia? make sure her dolls are not damaged in any way. If so... *shudder* j-just grit your teeth and hope for the best.

Any-the-way, someone. Please help me...!

*taunting jingling sounds*

HEY! THAT IS QUITE RUDE!
