mother says i need to tend to the manor hives because there's only so much she can do. i don't like it. taking care of oscar is easier, and there's no bees either.

oscar's not had a bad day in over a week, and he's talking to the village more. he's very happy that his sisters won't be home for a while. he doesn't talk about them around other people, but he'll tell me how much he doesn't want to see them. he isn't going to run, he just hates being locked away. he still can't do much, but everyone's been helping him. i like seeing him like this.

ugh, i have to go make sure the bees are okay again.

oscar is meeting a lot more people than he's supposed to. but it's because everyone's surprised how well he's doing ... he's still strange. maybe not as strange as he used to be. mother says that his sisters don't see how much he's healed, and don't trust him. maybe.

i keep waking up thinking i can do magic. i remember the feeling, i remember what i'm supposed to do. what he told me to do. but it was him all along. it was fake, and he was the one doing all of the work. and i'm always angry right after because i was supposed to be learning, but all he did was lie to me the whole time. i was supposed to be good. i was supposed to be great, and no one else was supposed to understand. and i told oscar about it because he wouldn't tell anyone, and ...

he told me what happened. and he's angry too. and he can't get magic to work either. so I'm more like him than i'm like tallys ...

i just thought this was going to be a chore, but he's not as bad as i thought.

i see them when i sleep. they're so happy together like they always were, and brother sits at the table with us. they're talking about the things that happen around the village, and there's a lightning bug that flies around the table. brother says i should focus on my food and not the bug. i watch mother and father as their eyes follow it. they can watch it, but brother says i shouldn't.

mother slices meat off of the chicken, and we eat together quietly. she isn't watching what she's doing. she's watching the lightning bug. she ...

i don't want to sleep anymore ...

i don't understand ... caoilinn told me yesterday that she was going to show me an important book, and she's not here at all today. she wouldn't just make promises like that, and not keep them. is she coming back later?

oh amalea, can we stay longer and give her a chance? it was really important!

i had the dreams again last night, but they were different. now ...

have you ever heard his voice in your dreams? he was holding a book, and we were sitting in a house while he read it to me. i was the me before i knew his smile was a lie, and i couldn't see behind his mists, and i just listened to him tell the story of the tower like a fairy tale. his voice used to be nice ...

i thought i could make it work, but it just sits there. it doesn't do anything. i just want it to work but i don't know how! it's not like the other magic i've tried. not at all. not even picturing runes works or anything.

how do you make it do something?

Your cookies are ready, brother. I made them until none of them burned ... I'm sorry they're so late.

ohhh, even when I get the stacks to finally look right on paper, I still can't get them to look right in my head. they're not pretty enough ... if the rules would just let you bend them or add twirly things to them, it would be a lot better ...

everyone's talking about the festival tomorrow...

I really hope it will be different here, like Brother says. I shouldn't be nervous ... the children all seem excited, even ...

um... maybe we could try to make dinner? maybe that'll help me not think about it... what if we tried that potato soup again? Amalea?
dreamsinmist: (these dreams go on ;;)

yesterday was so... wonderful. I wish the night didn't have to end... it was every bit as special as I knew it would be. I'm so glad...

and then I slept all day! I think it's already time for dinner... maybe we should have breakfast for dinner? since we didn't have breakfast ...
dreamsinmist: (the further i'm away ;;)
[Kilian]

Hee, it's my birthday! We should go do something, brother! and maybe later Amalea can show us her butterflies again...

and no Tallys allowed today, okay? I just want it to be a good day.
