You really don't like that cousin of yours, do you? Tho' the expression "smarmy git" comes to mind. I'm tempted to do a little baiting myself.

You remember Piotr, yes? Imagine him skinny, with bad clothes and badly dyed hair and ugly shoes. That is how much of a emo git my cousin is.

There's two of them in the world? One plonker wasn't enough? Ugh.

And what's with the tired? You're looking pretty worn out this morning and that's your what... third coffee this morning? Doug keeping you up?

I am not sure he is quite as much of a plonker, but he is at least as annoying as Piotr was.

Insomnia. I stayed up too late trying to chase an elusive prediction. Have I mentioned to you this week how much I hate Irene Adler?

Well, the mansion could do with some stirring up - been way too long since there was a journal bust-up there, and I need my entertainment. Otherwise I start flicking elastic bands at Mark and after The Incident with Pete, I'm not sure that's a good source of distraction any more.

Adler? The baggage that sent Marie on that wild goose chase and gave us the whole weirdness about Marie and Kurt sharing a parent? What's she up to now?

He says he has eel glands. I think I want to throw up just from the description.

Making ridiculous predictions that have no basis in reality and only serve to make people terrified, as usual.

He's part fish? No, wait, he's electrical. Huh. "Eel glands" is one way of putting it, I suppose.

She's not after Marie again, is she? Because with Mountie Boy taking off, she's had enough to deal with. Maybe if I got hold of one of these diaries and tried the location spell we could track her down and kick her a lot?

And just got confirmation from my rather freaked out boyfriend that it's him the prediction might be about. He won't tell me what it is, says you can explain it better. Can you?

I was hoping he would stop being quite so, as you say, freaked out over this, or that Nathan would put some sense into his head.

He found a prophecy that talks about crucification, and mentions "Skin" and a sacrifice and appeasing a God. Despite any convincing I tried to do, he has talked himself into believing that somehow, he survived growing up in a bad part of Los Angeles, being set on fire, and floating around in space only to be crucified as part of some strange sacrifice to God or a god.

I tried to tell him these things are never that obvious. I tried to tell him that death is one of the things I -do- see very accuratly, and I've seen none for him. I tried to tell him that it could be inaccurate from the start and that it could be already wrong by now.

He was determined not to listen to me.

Oh for... I can pretty much guarantee he hasn't talked to Nate yet if he's still being this freaked. Argh. Okay, thinking you're going to die isn't a barrel of monkeys, but he should know better than to put this much in store in a bunch of gibberish written by a mad old baggage.

I swear, if I have to drag him down to Tante and get her opinion before he'll listen, I'm going to be cranky.
