Well it looks like I won't be the first woman to win a Fields Medal, but I plan on being the second. I'm extremely proud of her though. That's such an honor. I'd give anything to be able to study under her. Maybe one day.

So Stiles is Stiles, but not the Stiles that was here, and Cora's not here, but Erica and Allison are here and alive and we have a werecoyote who is Peter's kid.

This town likes to screw with us.

Are you okay? Kitty's around, right? I'm sorry Cora's not here. Maybe she'll come back, and have your long lost son you didn't know about with her.

Getting kidnapped to Maine by a magical portal is definitely not on the list of things I expected to happen today, but I guess that portal has some pretty good timing, all things considered.

Uh, that fairy, though, that was a hallucination, right?

Anyway, hello, Storybrooke, I'm Allison. Are they serious about the whole being stuck here thing? I was kind of in the middle of something. ~~Like dying, but that's beside the point.~~

Hello.

I'm looking for a girl.

...Not just any girl, I do have a specific one in mind. Brown hair, brown eyes that are sometimes bright blue. She may have said something that sounded mean. She means it but she probably didn't mean to say it out loud. We're working on that.

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.

So if anyone from Beacon Hills is wondering, home still blows. But there still aren't vampires, so this place is still higher on the 1-10 scale of strange. I do know what a nogitsune, kitsune, and oni are now. They also blow, except the kitsune. Or one of them.

I'm making six frozen pizzas and bought a ton of legos. I'm building lego everything and not thinking about home at all.

You know, I've been contemplating my sheer lack of purpose here, and I think it might be time for a career change. Not that I've ever really had a 'career' before, but that's a better phrase than 'time to find a job and stop duping people for money'.

I'm honestly really excited for the end of the school year. It's been so great coordinating the educational programs this year, but I'm looking forward to initiating some fun summer programs at the Youth Center. There will be some classes there this summer, like dance and yoga and self defense, among others, that will be open to anyone who's interested. We'll also be working with the library to help anyone who needs to adjust or catch up for school in the fall. ~~And hopefully all this will help me ignore the whole Hydra thing. I could do without Nazis in my life~~

On that note, for high school students interested in taking summer classes at the college, I will be setting up meetings over the next few weeks to work that out. Just try not to stress too much about that when you still have exams coming up.

But back to fun things, prom is coming up as well, and I could use some volunteers to help set things up and make everything as nice and fun as possible. I could also use some chaperones, if any parents or teachers are interested. Prom will be on Saturday, May 24, so there's still plenty of time to get ready for that.

( Derek )

Want to come chaperone with me?

I need to be able to take college courses next year, along with my work load at the high school. Is that doable? Does anyone know?

Because if I'm going to be stuck here, getting some nonsensical degree that won't matter because I can't leave and go on to have a decent job and do the things I want, I will need to expand my horizons in other ways. For a town that claims to be full of happy endings, it's certainly as boring as the day is long. I'm not even hearing voices, that's how boring it is.

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.

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.
