Game 3: Sat. 11.10.07
Court was held in the House that Jack Built.
I recognized Door's eye. He recognized my key.
Sam was sent deeper into King Jack's lair. Jack said don't let Panzer go there. I didn't let him. I liked standing guard.
There is a pretty man who dances with guns. I don't understand. What dance is it? Why won't he dance with me?
We all went together. We all stood together. We found ourselves with arms in second position...They'd been there a long time, I could feel it in the muscles of my back where the arms are held up.
Inside, King Jack said hide. I hid so well even Pawn couldn't find me. Pawn was mad. Why was he mad? Then it was Stay-Between-Sam-and-Pawn but it was crowded, even en pointe.
They gave me knives, a metal one for this hand, a glass one for this hand. Pawn said stay at the back. I stayed. I swung them in the air the way Door showed me. Door said don't use that one, it'll cut your hand. I didn't use it. I swung the metal knife at the air. I liked the weight of it.
King Jack turned to smoke, Tyler turned to flame, everyone fought at the door and inside it. I didn't go in, Pawn said stay at the back and some didn't go in, so I stayed behind them. A lady in a coat studied the plants. Pawn and Sam and everyone protected us. When King Jack came back, the trees obeyed him. It's safe again...Safer, I mean.
King Jack killed the man in our dreams. I asked, So he doesn't have to suffer any more? Jack said, I hope he suffers for all eternity...That's a long time......I don't agree. He shouldn't have to. No one should have to.
Everyone is talking about Winter Court. I want the snow. I want to help. I want to be Winter. I'm frustrated. I cry. I'm overwhelmed. I cry harder. Pawn says patience. Pawn says this is why he is trying to give me time but I want it all at once. But don't you see? I've waited so long already.
I tried to learn a new dance. The feet are parallel. I have no arms. Sam taught me to slouch. Pawn said it isn't enough to hide myself, I have to have boxes and closets for everyone to be safe. We don't tell anyone where we live. A man is here who is Winter, I asked to join. He said I must pledge, I said yes.
Now I am Winter.
Now there is a council.
Now we must be motleys.
