[Journal Entry] Something odd in the air
It's probably just spring fever or hormones or something, but I've had this weird feeling the past week or so, at least since that big, violent storm we had where it thundered and snowed at that same time for a few minutes. It's like there's something stifling in the atmosphere here in the Mansion, so I've been spending a little more time outside thsn usual, at least when I'm not giving Ahiru her ballroom dancing lessons. Spring seems to be following closely on winter's heels and it's been warmer as the days get longer.
I've crossed paths -- quite literally -- with one of King Arthur's knights when he was out hunting: I'd found a trail of footprints and blood spatters leading toward the house (or it could have been away from the house, but the tracks were muddled since the snow has been melting) and it got me a bit concerned. It turned out he'd only caught some birds and was on his way back to prepare them.
Adrian and I have been getting closer -- not *that* way, geez! Get your head out of the gutter! He's offered to help me in case I should have any intruders in my dreams, and I've offered to let him feed from me if I need to. Come to think of it, there's a part of me that's wondered what it might be like, ever since I put myself out as bait that one time during the case in Nagasaki. I just hope I taste all right, since I'm not exactly alive.
I'm almost finished reading the Silma-- however that's spelled, and I'm hoping to meet with Galadriel about it soon. Now I know why the Elves are so leery of me: I can't say I blame them but that happened s long time ago, and one would hope some of them would have put it in the past. But like Delilah the native girl from Canada told me, it's hard to let go of the past since it can seem like a form of treason.
Maybe I just wanted to forget this one, but this very strange, very pretty woman called Melisande arrived in the Mansion and she pretty much chatted me up with only a few words. Don't ask me why, but I got a really bad feeling about her, the same way I did when I first crossed paths with *him*: she's got that same air of danger about, even though she's breath-takingly beautiful. I just hope that's the last I see of her.
Well, gotta run: there's a spring dance party in the ballroom and I need to take a shower and get dressed for that.
