    This Diva Needs Her Journal

    October 18th, 1884

    I met Verty's eldest today. It sounds as though Verty is doing alright which is most inconsiderate. I had thought maybe I would pay her a visit but now I am determined not to. I have just recovered from a very serious misfortune, if she cannot visit me then she quite clearly does not care about me anymore.

    At least I know she is not curled up with that fetid creature she called a husband. She can ignore me all she likes, I can content myself with that knowledge.

    I am not content.

    I hate my job, I hate children and I apparently now hate overly cooked meat.

    The entire spell damage ward should be let go for being such utter failures.

    Octavia Richardson of Gryffindor house is going to rue the day she was born, I will make her life a living hell. No one dares to mock me so publicly and gets away with it. I will have my revenge. The next person to conjure, draw or mention vultures in my presence will either be murdered or given a week of detentions. If they are not in Slytherin they will also lose one hundred house points and consequently all of their ugly little non-Slytherin friends.

    I wrote a letter to Verty. I wrote several letters actually. They all seemed to find their way into the fire shortly after being written.

    I miss her, I want to see her but I am hesitant to approach her either in person or by letter.

    I despise Mondays.
    Why won't they stop happening?
    Haikus are for fools.

    Verty you hussy.
    Your silence makes me angry.
    Also very sad.

    This room is quite cold.
    Haikus are still for buffoons.
    I'm not a buffoon.

    Which evil is worse,
    Writing in this silly book,
    Or writing Haiku?

    Both are hideously embarrassing I should stop this.

    I shall write haiku,
    Until I am no longer,
    Pained by her absence.

    I hate haikus but I appear to be very good at them. I am full of surprising talents. Perhaps I shall write a haiku book.

    I think I intimidated Miss Fontaine. It was quite entertaining.

    Less entertaining is the regrettable fact that I now prefer to eat raw meat to cooked meat. This would perhaps be fine were it not generally considered odd.

    I saw Vertiline today. She is, much to my great displeasure, in the family way. On reflection, I cannot help but wonder why I assumed without so much as a second thought, that she would not fraternize with her husband. Perhaps I assumed the utmost loyalty from her because it was she who sought me out, she seduced me, why would she do such a thing if she had no thought to be faithful? I can only conclude that I was terribly mistaken.

    We did make peace briefly, but her horrific change of shape was far too distressing and I had to depart. I suspect I may have restored discomfort between us once more. I wish I had known what that man had done with her when I killed him, I would have made it twice as painful for him. He defiled my sweet Verty, he soiled her perfectness. He deserves to die all over again.

    December has come,
    The annual plague it is,
    Christmas can stuff it.
