Parker

Homecoming went very well, all things considered, but something strange happened with Parker. She was being overly... kind and considerate. And happy - giddy almost. I'm not sure exactly what happened, but notcalledlizzie suggested she may have been replaced by someone or some thing - given the strange goings on here I suppose that is not impossible, though I'm more inclined to think she was given some sort of drug or hypnotic suggestion. In any case, I stuck close beside her all evening. I had thought in her altered state she might let slip some information, but I could not bring up the Pretender program without rousing suspicion as I'm not supposed to know anything about it or her father's connection with the program.

It was a surprisingly nice evening. Though she's no Nikita, she is quite beautiful and dances very well. The softer version of her, though disturbing for a multitude of reasons, was very nice to spend time with and reminded me a little of Elena.

I did try to check on her yesterday, but when I went to her room she just yelled through the door that she wasn't speaking to anyone - clearly back to her old self. Later she went into town to Phale's bookshop and spoke with the student whom I'm certain I recognize as an assassin I ran into once. Must remember to have Birkhoff check him out.

I plan to go check on Parker again soon - need to continue to play the part of the dutiful boyfriend. Thankfully it is no hardship to spend time being romantic with her.
