23 December X781
Hi, Journal. Uh, this is awkward. Like when you tell someone you'll do them a favor, then don't, and see them in the store? Yeah, that kinda awkward. Haven't written in awhile, my mute emotionless friend, but there's a lot that's happened.
Well, let's start with where I left off. First off, I went to check up on Anissia. Found a guy sleeping in her room. Not like that. I'd have updated the journal sooner in that case, from prison. Anyway, I jumped to conclusions, of course but....it wasn't like that. She was just letting him crash on her floor. She was being the...sweet, kind woman that she is. Anyway, I kinda left sorta angry...and I know I shouldn't have but...what can I say? I felt hurt? Sad? I dunno.
Anyway, after that I went and decided to get me some reading material. I wanted to find out about human....interaction, if you will. Ya know, the...er, sealing the deal, kind? Heh. Can't even say the words aloud without feeling my face get hot.
Which is weird, cause I don't get hot.
Alright. The books were on how to...have physical relations.
Don't judge me, journal. Ignis taught me all wrong, so I had to teach myself. At least he taught me how to read. Somewhat. But the books had pictures, so I was able to follow along pretty well! That..that doesn't make me sound to intelligent, but I'm telling you, sometimes it was pretty confusing. Medical terms and all. I'm a Dragon Slayer, not a doctor!
Anyway, she uh, she came over! And I was making her dinner and was about to go get her. It was to apologize, you know? For leaving like I did before. I didn't want her to think I was angry, cause I honestly wasn't. Anyway, I think it was steaks? We had fun cooking, like we always did. She's a mean woman with a knife and an onion, lemme tell you. And after dinner we, er...we started kissing, like we had in Hargeon. I mean, I kinda planned it to be a romantic dinner. I lit candles and everything. And one thing led to another and we spent the night.
Together.
In the same bed.
Those books, uh...they came in handy but...journal...it was...
AWESOME!
I can't even begin to describe. Like, it was amazing. I can't speak for her but...I haven't slept so soundly. No, seriously. Ever. But the act of it was...well, I'm not one to kiss and tell. But now I can't lay in my bed and smell her scent without thinking back, and it's like I crave it and her all over again. It's maddening! It's like a faucet was turned on and some jerkface snapped off the lever and just lets it run.
And I'm that guy trying to stuff it with paper but it just soaks right through and keeps on.
Anyway....enough about our escapades. Shortly after that someone attacked Fairy Tail and I fought to defend it, by myself. There were others there, but they were caught up in crossfire and...well, we lost a lot of people. Some of them may have been my fault, but we can't be sure. I nearly burned the guild down, but I stopped her. But then after someone told me they saw Ani inside and the guild hall was on fire and they were carrying out people who had burned alive and I couldn't find Anissia and...I thought I had killed her. Obviously, using the word thought, I didn't, but it destroyed me. I felt....I never want to feel like that again. When we spent the night together I told her I loved her, and I do journal, with everything that I am. Just thinking about her makes me smile like a goofball and all giddy like one of those girls from Magnolia's school district.
Anyway, I found out she hadn't been killed. She escaped out the back and got lost? I'm chuckling as I write this cause, honestly it's endearing as hell, but how do you get lost in the back yard!? Anyway, she got tricked into drinking this potion by this witch and it changed her. Not like metaphorically. It seriously changed her. She's a bit taller now, has lighter color hair--she said it was pink, I think? Ha! Poet and didn't even know it, Journal! Back on track, she has more...curves. I mean, I really like the change, don't get me wrong. And she still smells the same, which doesn't help my predicament in wanting to steal as much alone time with her as I can. But, she was distraught. Worried that I, and the rest of the guild, wouldn't accept her having changed.
So I did what any super awesome dragon slaying boyfriend would do.
I went, found this witch and made her change me too. If she's gonna stand out for having changed, than she won't have to do it alone! I honestly kinda like the new look. Witch lady said the potion kinda backfired and made me a heterochrome....whatever the heck that means. Something about my eyes being two different colors. Eh, it's whatever. Anissia seemed pleased, or at least happy, that I went and changed with her. Now we're two strange peas in a pod.
Speaking of peas, food break.
Oh, right. Then that happened. I became a Vampire. Yeah, the blood sucking cape wearing weirdos from books. Well, there's less cape wearing than you would think. I personally think I look terrible in a cape. But, yeah. Won this amulet from this creepy guy at All Hollow's Eve fair. I put it on and BAM! cursed. Now I can't go out in the day or anything. It sucks. I'd been surviving on beast blood until recently.
Well, let's back up a little bit. I found a cat. A flying, talking cat. No, I'm not starved or drunk, journal. His name is Alatross, and he insisted I put him in here and keep things to the facts. (He didn't get to see what I wrote earlier, or he would have been made at me for saying that stuff about Sia.)
So. Where was I? Right. I became Guildmaster as well. Yep, not even any kids and in charge of an entire guild of people--most who are older than me. Not sure how that works, and I'm doing a 'bang up job' as Alatoss says, but I'm trying.
And then this old man came and visited me. It was weird. He told me there was dark wizards in Blue Pegasus and I went and attacked. Like, I didn't even think twice. It was...odd. I just flew off the handle which, is known to happen occasionally, it was never this easy. Anyway, while I was there I fed on someone, my first human being. It was Blue Pegasus' Guild Master, Tali Zorah. She's very popular. But it awoken something in me...like a beast. And now I've been craving human blood constantly.
I came back to Fairy Tail and told them I started a war. It wasn't intentional, but they all said they would stand behind me. We're a family, after all. I've never had one of those....Ignis was all I had.
I made a friend, Actessa, too. She's new to the guild and can't talk. She had a lot of questions about Anissia, asking about our...personal exploits. She asked if there was blood, and I told her no, and asked why I would have bled. She's weird, sometimes. She came to see me about having lost her magic and I...attacked her, and fed off her. She told me that I should try that with Ani, but Journal, I'm terrified of that. I already crave her physically, and her companionship all the time...I am unsure if I would be able to control myself if I gave in to any sort of compulsion to feed. What if I drank too much blood? She could die. Or, what if she was terrified of me for being a Vampire? They're usually evil, right? It's just....I don't want to lose her. I love her, and I love Fairy Tail, but I could handle leaving the guild. I've been on my own before. I could never handle losing her, because being on your own is not the same thing as being alone. She's everything to me.
But, that's enough of that, heh. That's everything, roughly, that's happened. More to follow soon, I'm sure! Never a dull day as Fairy Tail's Guild Master!
