Boning Up

If you take that as something dirty. ... you're a perv.

Dick and I are waiting for Diana and Mr.Wayne to come downstairs and we're watching Bones right now. in front of the fire, mmm warmth. The fig nearby is dangerously ripening D:

The Party went well, LOTS of people and a LOT of running away from press and such. I didn't have to dress up as much for the Christmas ball, so I was able to keep up with Roy and Dick more easily.

I met a man named OLIVER QUEEN (I was RIGHT the other day!) Very nice, and very polite, albeit a tad... eccentric? Kind of reminded me of Mr.Wayne on a REALLY good day  xD DINAH was there with Mr.Queen and Roy. Wally and Barry weren't there ( I think they run in different circles) Clark and Lois Lane made and appearance to do a story. It was nice to meet Lois she's very interesting :)

All of the guests have left and Wally nd Barry came over, J'onn is walking through the door :) We're about to go up on the roof, So I'm goingt o sign out for now. Talk to you again in the NEW YEAR everyone <3

Writing Before We're Off

I have a lot to do today, so I'm updating you pretty much about everything from yesterday and the same situation will occur tomorrow along with a doubl post. So I can keep this whole week straight.

Amazon and I have made up pretty well, we went to Wayne MAnor yesterday and I helped decorate for the New Years Party after Dick showed me more Judo skills. I basically just fell again. Aparrently I will be doing nothing but falling for about a week or more until I learn how to do it properly. Mr.Wayne watched Dick teach me and gave both of us pointers: Dick HOW to teach, and me: how NOT to bust my tailbone. My back feels a lot better than yesterday at least :D

Yesterday was pretty boring, that was about the only exciting parts, we said goodbye to Alfred who was making little chocolate dipped somethings. He showed me how to make one before I left. They're called Marshmallow Reindeer. HE said there would prolly be some left to do today so I'm going to help him finish up. They're really quick to make :D

Amazon and I curled up with a movie yesterday called Australia. Movie OOZED Romance. blegh. It was alright though, not what I was expecting.

Today we're helping finish the decorations, random people are coming over for early dinners around 6 and to get party favors and will leave around ten, all of the profits go to charity once again (sort of like a second Christmas ball, for people who weren't able to make it to the Christmas ball). Then the private party starts, and at 11:30 we';ll go up to the roof and watch fireworks and count down the new year, it actually sounds a lot more tame than what I was expecting.

Apparently I'm supposed to expect a "surprise" at midnight, and I'm not  completely sure how to feel about that. Dionisus is apparently feeling chipper. I have his powers today, so either he's planning a REALLY fun party and doesn't want to get in trouble with Zeus anymore, or he's feeling puckish. Either way every friggin thing I walk past that's fruity is flourishing to the point of nearly bursting. @.@ No Farmer's market for me today.

Off to decorate. Happy New Year everyone, if I don't have time to let you know before hand :D (Dick told me to send his regards >.>; I'm really hoping they're not actually reading this...things could get awkward D: )

Waking Up Isn't Fair

Roy was at the Manor again today and I woke up to him picking me up off of the couch by both of my arms and plopping me onto a chair in the kitchen. So when I was FINALLY awake I was staring at a cup of coffee I had unconciously been sipping for fifteen minutes and Dick was sitting across from me similarly -.-;

Dick and I had talked yesterday about teaching me some Judo and he promised to do that before I left, at least showing me a couple moves, but Roy wouldn't let us leave the table until we had both eaten an egg, two pancakes, and a cup of orange juice (ew.) each.

We finally went to a gym room with tons of equipment and Dick made Roy our dummy (ohh far stretch ... -cough-) for revenge for the wake up. Mr.Wayne was already gone to work (we only woke up at about 8am) so we had the gym to ourselves and Dick showed me how 'fall properly' so basically I got thrown around after watching Roy being thrown around for a few minutes and 'falling'.

He also showed me how to throw, by practicing on Roy first, and then practicing on me to show me how they wored and allowing me to pratice falling more. So all I did was get thrown around on a mat but it was fun xD albeit painful, my shoulders and neck hurt, so he's going to show me more tomorrow and then we'll practice after New Years

Diana picked me up at noon and I've been at the apartment with her all of today. We've prettty much made up and we're on okay terms but it's still awkward. She taught me how to make a dish called Lamb Fricassee which is traditionally part of the New Year's Meal btu she wanted to teach me how to make it since we're spending New Year's Eve with the Waynes. I asked her why she doesn't spend the holidays with her family like everyone else and she just laughed and said that.

"At one point I was exiled from my home. My mother and I don't usually see eye to eye, and besides. Ba-ruce (yes I heard that stutter) and Dick and Alfred and everyone else have become my family now, so I do spend the holidays with my family. And I am sorry that you can't but I hope you're enjoying the holidays anyways."

She rminded me that I may not get to see my family this year for the holidays I love the most, but Dick and Roy have pretty much adopted me, and from the way Alfred and Mr.Wayne act, they're getting used to me and I guess Diana isn't so bad, she's been a lot more understanding than I would have in her situation. And this is the season for second chances right? The New Year is a new start and all.

We ate the lamb and it was a little burnt (my fault) but it was pretty good anyways, she promised to tech me more greek recipes, I don't usually learn any from my mom because she's more Irish than Greek (Greek is fromt he Gods mainly, not mom). So now I get to learn Judo from Dick, Roy wants to teach me archery (mainly because he's bored I think), Diana (and Alfred sort of) is teaching me to cook, and Mr.Wayne taught me how to play the piano. :) Maybe in the New Year I can continue these.

I hope so, because I'm really enjoying this new family that seems to be forming. <3

I'm going to go hunker down with a book called ' Storm Front '. Part of a series called the Dresden Files, there's quite a few on Amazon's bookshelf :)

Night guys <3

And I'm Supposed to Believe That Load?

Something smells very strongly of~ [THIS]

This morning I nearly hada panic attack, I accidentally fell asleep around 5am and woke up at 5:30am. Dick told me to go back to sleep but I was DETERMINED to stay up. So I did xD worst decision of my life.

Roy ran into the door at some point, he was trying to say something about the way Kid Flash stopped and WHAM hello doorframe XD He tried it once more (trying to go THROUGH the doorway) but once again secured himself to the doorframe. Dick and I were dying of laughter and Mr.Wayne yelled at us >3>

We made popcorn at 4:30 just for something to munch and started watching a movie called 'Blade' We watched the whole series. I think my favorite was Trinity. and then we started to watch the Fast and Furious movies before Alfred came down and made breakfast. We ate and sat back down to watch TV, I ended up leaning on Dick most of the time because I was so tired I couldn't hold myself up, and Roy had taken up the ENTIRE couch -.-;

For such a skinny kid he sure is FAT.

Diana came to pick me up at lunch time and broguht me a change of clothes. I went with her for lunch, Roy came with us (I was begging for a Mediator) and so we went out to a Greek restaurant (OMG home food~ <3)

Roy pretty much sat there stuffed his face when awkward moments occurred. I nearly screamed at Diana when we got into it :/ prolly why the candle flame got a little ... flaring... >.> It only jumped up like ... three inches....Roy called it an inferno, I very much doubt that's accurate. He started calling me 'Inferno' now too -.-;

Basically Diana explained that she's a member of DMA but she's acting on behalf of her mother and 'father' (she used the air quotes not me) and that I wasn't known to the DMA, I'm just a relative in their eyes. She also said that I would be meeting someone on New Years would could explain my situation to me better. She kept swearing and promising me that she wasn't using me and that she sincerely wants me to be safe and well and educated (mmm school, yay)

I just got made because I'm sick of being 'the vessel of power' ...why did I just think of that in Arnold Schwarzanegger's voice? Anyway, I guess I'm stilll just tense about being at a practical stranger's house still, and having not seen my family in almost a week doesn't help. Diana told me to spend the night at Wayner Manor for one more night, so Dick and I are finishing the Fast and Furious movies before going to bed. We're basically just camping out in the living room though xD

Roy went home a while ago with a guy who looked like Oliver Queen, though we weren't introduced. Dick and are watching the third movie: Tokyo Drift (frickin COOL) and Dick is trying very hard to keep his eyes open xD We'll pass out soon.

Night everyone <3

Why So Tired Mr.Wayne?

Today Amazon and I munched on Pizza for breakfast (kinda old but still delicious :D) She got an emergency call to go into work so she dropped me off at Wayne Manor so I wouldn't be alone.

Strange thing #1 about 5 minutes after I got there, a giant mutant thing was attacking the city and the DMA was on scene

Strange thing #2 Mr. Wayne and Dick weren't at home even though they were when Diana called to drop me off.

Strange thing #3 Lois Lane was in the city, and coming in right after her? Superman. not totally surprising but what was was the fact that Clark was no where to be seen in any of the shots of the crowd. What the hay?

I saw Diana on the TV, association with the DMA? that may be a problem....like MAJORLY. Batman and Robin showed up and Superman helped (obviously). Alfred and I basically sat on the sofa and watched the whole thing, he was so animated xD He was yelling at the TV when Batman was on it and telling him to punch left right and when Robin showed up he started yelling at him toduck and jump and oh jeez it was like watching a dad at a sports game XD

I was also watching closely, and at one point the camerman got a really good close up on Superman but I wasn't paying as much attention and I stared for a second, he looked just like Clark Kent in that couple of seconds O.o so weird.

Unfortunately Robin got slammed into a telephone pole (ouch) and we didn't see him get up for the rest of the fight but the news anchors promised us that he got up with Batman and Superman's help and Supes carried him off, presumably to a hospital. So there's that.

Roy showed up after that (I swear to the Gods, do the boys ALL live here or are they just skin grafted at the hip?)and waited for Mr.Wayne and Dick to come back from their business trip meeting thing. Roy seemed really shifty and to pass the time (he needed to keep his mind off of SOMETHING) he made me make a couple of accounts on different things, and e-mail account, a twitter account (you can follow it as HestiaTitan) and a couple other things and then he asked Alfred if we could do target practice JUST before Dick and Mr.Wayne walked through the door with Diana.

I don't really know about her, and I think she could tll I was concerned, I didn't want to stand near her at all and she deffinetly looked a little abashed that she hadn't told me before, she was called back to DMA tonight (I also found out that Dick was in some corss fire or something at the mutant attack and he ended up with a concussion) So I spent the night at Wayne MAnor. Borrowed Dick's old PJs (whichwere still too friggin big D:) and we're staying up really late so that he can't fall asleep (Roy is spending the night too. Wally would have but Mr.Wayne said that enoguh damage was done for the day and to leave it at that XD)

Diana promised to sit down and talk with me here at Wayne Manor tomorrow to sort all of this out (I'm not extremely comfortable going back to the apartment at the moment :/ Feel like I've been used.).

Anyways: Sleepover! yayyy not really. xD I love these guys, they're wicked funny, but it's so damn awkward being 1) the only girl, 2) sleeping over when we've only known each other for like a week and 3) being two years younger D: (though you probably wouldn't know it the way these two act)

Alfred bought a bunch of soda (baaaddd idea ...except not really because we have to keep Dick awake) and came back with goodies and snacks too! :3 We're totally gluttons tonight. it's awesome.

I'm not sure how we got onto the topic but the boys have been bragging about who can spar better and they taught me how to punch well and how to execute a high kick, it's fun, I'm thinking of asking Dick to teach me more when he has time. and when he's feeling better of course.

Roy told some Navajo legends, I'm not totally sure how he knew them but they were a lot of fun, really interesting and full of awesome visuals :D Dick nearly nodded off so we switched to playing video games, right now Roy is kicking Dick's but at ...I can't remember what they're playing ... Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles something or other. They keep screaming at each other XD Oh god, Roy just pushed Dick over to win and now they're fighting.

Ad now they're looking at me like I'm a total weirdo because I yelled at them to stop fighting. ughhhh living with little boys has ruined my sense of amusement hasn't it? Of course it has. I'm being called off to play more smash ups stuffs. Have a good one guys :)

( Really sad how well THIS fits my life D: )

Day After Christmas, Holiday Buzz

I forgot to mention what I got:
-Cell Phone
-Scarf (Designer maybe? Way to much money spent on me)
-Hair accessories (nice cop out Roy ;P)
-Two necklaces
-Mug (Live, Laugh, Love)

FIREWORKS are making this holiday season even more pleasant than before.

Diana told me that Wayne Manor does something special the night after Christmas to keep the holiday season around for a little while longer (or atleast that's the bs that the boys fed to her) So I'm writing this bundle up in a jacket, on the balcony with my laptop warming my legs and watching Fireworks blow up the sky. Not everyone gets the night off though :/

Today was pretty low key, I slept in until 10 because Diana and I went to bed so late. We had brunch and cleaned the dishes we had left alone yesterday and then went and browsed some of the stores for any good deals (it was HECTIC). We bought a couple things, and came back to the house for an hour before going back out to see a movie and came home for dinner (we ended up ordering in Pizza, yum!)

IT's a nice balance to have busy days and peaceful days mixed so well together xD Like a mix bag you never know what you're going to get.

The fireworks just ended so I'm going inside and ending this too, today has been mild and nice with only a mild case of posession: like a 2, Aphrodite decided to step in for a little while when we were shopping (About 15 minutes which could have been suicidally embarrassing if Diana hadn't been there <3)

Night folks, Talk to you again real soon :)

Christmas Day

2 entries today: This is from te 25th but I was to exhausted to post anything.

I woke up to Diana baking some cookies with the radio cranked up on holiday carols. We had a really good breakfast together (chocolate chip pancakes) :) It took me a few moments to remember that I wasn't going to see my family but Diana did a great job making me think of other things and keeping it off of my mind.

After breakfast we traded gifts. I bought her a Snuggie (the gag gift) and a long coat with faux fur on the cuffs and around the hood :) She was really happy with them and the coat fit her really well, she laughed when she found the Snuggie (a special one, Wonder Woman's form is printed on it xD SNUGGIE makes her ook EXACTLY like Wonder Woman it's awesome haha

She bought me a phone so that I can stay in touch with her, the boys, and my family. I thought I was going to start crying, with all of my siblings and my mom the only one bringing money we don't get stuff like this. It's my first phone, I literally stood up and jsut hugged her, she really made the day special :)

For lunch we went to Wayne Manor and helped set up. Wally and Roy showed up soon after with Barry and Dinah and we ran around pushing furniture into other rooms and buffing chandeliers xD Dick made me sit on his shoulders so we could buff one of the lowest chandeliers, omg it was scary being so high. Diana bought me a dress to wear to the ball thing and I had a regular dress for our "Family night" thing after it

The ball was .. weird. It was incredibly stuffy but Roy, Dick, Wally and I clustered around one another to try to stay away from reporters and high end ploiticians and what not (the ball is a charity function to raise money too, besides just being a get together) Dick kept pulling me away when a reporter spotted him and we danced a lot to avoid them. Roy and Wally loved it, they kept teasing D:

I'm too short too. I've come to that conclusion, I could hardly keep up with the boys in both the heels and my legs being way to short ugh. The function finally came to an end and the whole mess was left alone for the next day. I had to stand with the boys to wave goodbye to the guests and met a man named Lex Luthor who set my skin crawling even though he was polite enough. Felt like he knew me too, like the way Clark seemed to know me but was trying not to. REALLY creepy.

I changed and found the back pack I had brought (I bought small things for the boys the day before after realizing I would see them sooner than the new year). We met in the living room (HUGE tree, like practically New York City Tree material it was even topped with a star) I just stood there taking it in for a few before Wally pushed me into the room and onto the couch. We exchanged gifts all around and it was nice to eat dinner with them (even if it was totally crazy, just like the other day xD ) Diana and Dinah talked to one another the whole time and Barry and Wally kept cracking Dick, Roy, and I up. I think I'm either getting used to the way they talk or they were talking slower because I caught almost every word they said xD Over all it was just a nice night even if I couldn't spend it with my family and we sang a couple of Christmas carols, Mr.Wayne taught me how to play Jingle Bells on his piano which was REALLY cool :) I suck but it was really cool :D

Mr.Wayne made Dick play  'It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year' and then he put on a  cd with some music and we all basically just sat and talked and drank hot cocoa (I helped Alfred make a batch! :D ) in front of the fire. It was really great, Alfred even sat down with us and we played a round of checkers, I lost but it was fun haha I think I'm to used to letting the little kids win now.

Nobody really went home until about midnight, we were all having way to much fun, but we finally got going (Diana and I) around 12:30 when I was nodding off on the floor in front of the fire in the middle of my conversations with Wally and Roy haha, it was great I'm really looking forward to see how they do New Years, and Wally and Barry want me to hang out with them while Wally is on break, so maybe I'll do that tomorrow or sometime soon.
