It's strange living in a town where "is it fireworks or gunfire" is a short game of "nope, that's just fireworks".

I've spent basically the last week being angry at Game of Thrones. So that's productive? But it's summer, so I don't have to be productive anyway. Or put up with coach's summer practice schedule, which is never "show up when you wake up" like it should be.

So there's perks to smalltown magic, USA?

I do miss live music. Wasn't there a band happening somewhere?

Carlos and I are finally married. I'm now, officially, Cecil Gershwin Palmer-~~TheScientist~~Mendoza. And I have to say, I could not be happier.

The ceremony was lovely, even if there was some confusion over the incorporation of bloodstone circles. Dana, Amy, it was so great having the both of you there.

We went for pie at the diner, rather than having a reception. Then Carlos and I did what all married couples do. We went out to the park to stare into the void and scream in existential terror. And that was beautiful, because in that moment we were terrified together. And then we had sex. Because obviously. I mean can you blame me? Have you seen Carlos? And he's my husband now!

It was wonderful. And it will continue to be wonderful because how could it possibly ever cease to be so.

Everyone is always bored or missing people on this thing. Including me. So screw it.

Top five people in town you'd sleep with. Everyone tell me theirs. (I don't care if they're married/dating/into the wrong gender/from a world where they're actually a rabbit. It doesn't have to make sense.)

No picking people who aren't here anymore, because then it's not as funny.

Feel free to tell me if this already exists but is there any kind of database that lists who's here, from where and from when? It could probably be even more detailed than that. I know we had to register who we were and our abilities and all of that, but is it accessible to anyone? Can we add "last known memory" to the list?

And maybe a "Welcome to Storybrook. You are ~Here~." kind of pamphlet would be helpful with like a map of the town, maybe some job listings and pertinent information for life, essentially. And introduction to those of you who are from here, especially those running the town?

I don't know, I'm an academic. I like the idea of having literature.

We'll be having a spring open house at the library this week. There will be extra books for sale to raise money and there will also be snacks. In addition, there will be applications for anyone interested in jobs here. Everyone is more than welcome to come.

I've been told there are some people in town who are ~~afrai~~ wary of librarians. I promise that I don't mean anyone any harm. I just really love books and want to encourage everyone to appreciate them. I hope we'll see some people there this weekend.

I have never overslept. I've never watched porn. I don't know how to drive. My name is Cora Hale.

Yes! Good. Okay, just testing.

You don't realize how much you don't say, or how often you just kind of sidle next to the truth until you can't do that at all and suddenly feel like the world's biggest liar.

Sorry to everyone I overshared with. And I'll just pretend I didn't hear anything you don't want me to know. I'm pretty good at oblivious.

[Filtered to Billy]
So, my roommate is a banshee, most of my friends are werewolves and superheroes, and Stiles just turned into a vampire.

I feel really painfully normal. I should find some toxic waste to roll in. That usually works out, right? Not that I'm complaining. Being a vampire would really not have been on my to-do list, and I think I'd cut off a finger or two if it could make things better for Lydia. Speaking of which, I kind of have a favor to ask?

How are you? Now that we won't babble anything in our heads, want to do something tonight?
[/Billy]

I'm being proactive about my boredom. Anyone who plays or wants to learn how to play lacrosse, meet up at the high school at four on Friday, and we'll either practice until everyone learns, or do a pick up game if everyone knows. I can probably be talked into a different sport if everyone wants. Superpowered people are going to be handicapped by the rest of us cheating wildly.

I realized I haven't really come out and said it, so there's probably a lot of people even in my social circle who don't really know.

I'm a vampire now.

Before anyone gets worked up, it was my choice. I was dying and losing my mind and possibly had an evil parasite thing inside me, and now I'm fine. I'm good. I mean, sure I'm technically dead, but it's better than being completely dead, as far as I'm concerned. Yeah, I know, I'm sixteen. I don't know what I want. I don't care. I like being alive.

And no, it isn't easy. Cravings are hard, and I'm definitely worried I'll slip up and eat someone. But there are resources here to help and it's probably easier than it would be somewhere that I'd have to hide what I am now. It definitely sucks not being able to go outside during the day, and I'm kind of going a little stir crazy around the apartment, but Cora's been good about bringing me my school work, so it gives me something to do. I guess the weirdest part is that I sort of feel like everything's turned up to eleven. Not just senses, which is kind of a given, but like...me. In general.

But...yeah. I'm a vampire now. Deal with it.

So, it's official. I am a business owner.

Smoak Securities is properly set up. Papers signed, office leased. Not bad for a sidekick. It's going to be weird being the boss but I really don't need many employees. I work pretty well alone.

What we do is install high tech security systems and maintain them. I'd give you references but they are back home. So I will say that I've been keeping the fact that my boss, Oliver Queen, is the Starling City Vigilante a secret for over a year.

Now, I want pie.

While I know it means nothing here... I'm a Tarsus IV survivor. One of nine. Most of the younger kids assigned to me died while we were being hunted through the colony. I still, occasionally, have nightmares.

I feel like Khan and I are two halves of the same coin. If things had been different we could've been friends. If I kept heading down the same path I would've been him. It helps that he was attractive.

I don't know how to feel about the fictional thing. I don't know how to feel about the 'original series'. I worry I'll never live up to that version of me.

Most of the time, I'm glad they stopped showing all the crap shows and things we're all in here. But it bugs me trying to figure out how that happened, and where the cut off is. There's still commercials for Game of Thrones so that's here, and Stiles subjected me to the new Flowers in the Attic, but most things can't be found even when you make good friends with google. (Which also exists. Who is making the rules? If they're taking things away, why didn't they un-invent Bing and do us a favor for once?)

Mostly though, it means there's a million things I know nothing about, so I feel like my whole life of useless knowledge is actually useless instead of good for arguing with people who are wrong on the internet. I'm going to start making dents in the new pop culture that showed up. I'm starting with the knockoff Storybrooke-approved version of Battlestar. Which is called Warcomet, believe it or not. ~~There is no Starbuck, who looks like Jane, either.~~ Anyone want to watch with me instead of doing anything constructive?

Lydia, your pony-dog really likes the couch. Am I supposed to be telling her she can't be up there? I'm not good with doggy discipline. She has the eyes, so I just give her what she wants.
