Network comm for The Land of Make Believe

Grading papers is my least favorite aspect of teaching. Perhaps having them write a paper on The Time Machine before break wasn't the greatest of choices I could have made. Especially when the author of said piece of literature is your fiance.

I am going to wear the bat socks all the time.

I have eaten so much sugar I think I'm shaking

Or at least all day today.

Batman isn't here right? I mean I wouldn't want to infringe on his whole Bat-thing

I....I...I can't believe that he's gone. Kurt was my best friend and brother here. We went through everything together. I'm glad that Finn is here and everything but I miss Kurt and Blaine being here. If I lose Finn again, I'm not going to be very happy about it. I think I just need to go out and have some fun tonight or something. Just something to where I'm not sitting around and thinking.

Right. So guess what I've discovered?

Demigods can totally get sugar rushes.

I want to help. I do not like these... Reavers as I believe they're called, and I want to be of some use. I can use magic, I am good with both defensive and offensive spells. If anyone needs to get back to the castle, let me know, I can also apparate. For those of you who are unfamiliar with apparating, it's the ability to leave one area and immediately be brought into a different area. I would have to know the exact location of where you are so I can get to you.

I can also try to make portkeys. They're inanimate objects made to be able to take a person from one person to another.

I just need something to do. I will kill those things as well, I have no problem with that.

What are these things?!

I'm in the castle right now, but I can feel - people are dying.

Ugh...yeah. That whole getting smashed to push out the dark prophetic dreams? Not a good idea.

Alright, people. We've cried wolf. Now listen up!

I want to start organizing everyone into groups based on skills. So comment below if:

- If you have combat/hand-to-hand/etc fighting skills
- If you have magic skills
- If you have weaponry skills
- If you have tech skills
- Or other abilities/skills you think will be helpful in protecting the castle from the Reavers

If you have any other skills I did not mention, speak up. I'm going to talk to B about breaking people up into groups. Some of the more fighting-like will be up on the front lines, rotating on patrol close to the castle. I don't give a shit about the locals. Sorry if that makes me sound heartless. The rest we'll need to work out to create more defenses.

Anyone sixteen and younger I'm going to require to stay in the castle. No bitching, no questions. Just fucking do it, kids.

If you have any other ideas of how to stop these things from getting into the castle, let me know.

If you live outside of the castle, raise your hand. I'm going to set something up on the castle grounds to live in. You're welcome to join me there.

Keep your eyes open, folks! If you see something, let us know. They could come any day now.

Last week never happened. Got it everyone?

Well. What next, I wonder.

I guess I've just been lucky that it's all passed me right by. Except the losing my sense of taste thing.

Why does everything taste like cardboard?

Seriously. I can't taste anything and this totally sucks.

But I guess it's good in a sense since I have to cook for myself now, right?

Look what I got!

Here's my public service announcement.

I am a vampire. I miss blood from the vein. Now, I know better than to do that here, and I have tapped the blood bank for my supply, but I miss regular feeding. Any vampire who says they don't prefer a vein is lying their ass off. Luckily, I also have control.

Carry on.

I have a date.

I'm totally terrified. He's never met me. I sound like Mickey Mouse. I don't even know if he will like me.

I'm excited about going, and I feel guilty too. I love Blaine, I always will, but if he never comes back, I hate to think of life alone. I think he would want me to try to move on, and have some fun. This isn't bad. It's just dinner. It's just a start.

So, I'm...kind of just wondering.

Is there anyone here who isn't afraid of death?

I think that's why people find me creepy. Because I remind them of death.

Good news and more good news! Those ugly little furry things are gone now and I can smell again! Life is good at the moment and those flowers smell so lovely that I got from my date. Now to get some much needed rest I have classes and work tomorrow.

I'm glad to see that all the madness has gone away now from the castle. I did spend a couple days in a hotel because I don't like seeing animals being killed and there were just too many for me to deal with. So while I took my classes, and went to work, I watched romantic comedies. One was actually really good. Its always great to see the couples have their happily ever afters. I almost had mine here and back home. Maybe I will get it again someday, I am starting fresh and I have a date this weekend. A double date with this guy that is taking a musical theater class with me and Kurt is coming along too because he has a friend. So I think I'm heading in the right direction, its just dinner after all.

Congratulations, you all managed to survive the tribble infestation. I'm not going to lie, I'm surprised.

hello

where am i?

this isn't narnia. but this is a castle?

I managed to acquire the necessary paperwork to start my employment at the University. I start when the start of term does, and I will be teaching French and Latin.

This will be interesting.

One minute I was on a train. The next minute, I'm in a castle. And this doesn't look anything like Narnia. What is this place?
