Great. Iris has gone missing. Again. Since New Year's Day. And if anyone has any informa...
OH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!!! Of all the STUPID, POINTLESS.... Why would she go after Evil Evil HERSELF?!
Oh, yeah, except she's not by herself. She ended up getting one of her co-workers, Joseph, involved as well. Neither of them have been seen for over a week.
Apparently the head librarian, Isabelle, is friends with Harry. She had asked Joseph to train Iris at her new job at the library while Isabelle took care of some family matters, but they skipped out on the end of their shift. None of them were there when she got back. And then, of course, I saw Iris' post about confronting Evil Evil...
So... so yeah. If anyone has any clue where she could be... that would be appreciated.

Finishing School!
Well, I did it! I finished online college! And it feels... really anti-climatic. I always wanted to graduate with the friends I'd made around me. Throw my cap in the air. That sort of thing. Instead I'm getting a mailed diploma, and I'm not even sure what to do with it. What's the point of having a degree when you can get anything you want by saying hi?
Certainly doesn't help that Iris still isn't being herself. I'll admit, I really miss the goofy, devil-may-care Iris that would do anything just for the fun of it. I'm starting to wish she'd never even heard of Sonic Boom. Seems to me he hasn't done anything but hurt her.

Getting Nervous
Sooo... um, Iris hasn't been online. In forever. And I'm starting to get nervous about this. I mean, I get that she no longer feels the need to obsess over finding Void, for which I'm grateful, and that she no longer wants to obsess over Sonic Boom, which is also a plus, but... I dunno, it was like the Internet was her happy place. And now she's abandoned it. She's even gone so far as to look for a job. Like, an actual, go-to-work-and-get-a-salary kind of job. And I'm starting to worry.
I get that she was upset about what happened with the supers, but I didn't think it would get this bad.
Help?

Halloween
Ha, THAT was interesting. Halloween for a super who can't talk without spewing gems. I felt bad about it, but there was no way I was going to open that door to trick or treaters (luckily for me, Iris actually WENT trick-or-treating, so she had no say in the matter). I just turned off all the lights and pretended no one was home.
Of course, I didn't stop to think about punk teens that would try to sneak into dark houses. It nearly gave me a heart attack when I heard someone climbing through the window. I thought the Queen had found where I live.
So you can't judge me for what I did next.
I didn't have any real weapons on hand, so I took a leaf out of Iris' book and just grabbed the nearest thing I could find. Which happened to be a rather large pillow. Feeling oh-so-confident with my new weapon, I hid behind a corner, and when the intruders came by, I jumped out and started hitting them.
"Oh, HEY! What are you..."
"STOP THAT!"
An order I promptly obeyed once I realized it was coming from a pair adolescent voices. The Queen can change her appearance, but not that of others.
"What do you think you're doing?" I growled. I wasn't too worried about them seeing the gems. It was still dark, and I wasn't turning on lights. That would only reveal the gems scattered all over the floor.
There was silence, until a boy's voice said, "We thought no one was home."
"And you always break in to empty homes?"
"I told him it was a bad idea!" a girl's voice cried.
"Well, I'll tell you what's a good idea." I was really ticked. "Get out. And don't come back."
"We're sorry," the girl said softly.
"Out."
I made them go out the front door, and I watched them until they went down another street. Then I went and found a baseball bat until Iris came home.
I hate Halloween.

Settling Down
I'm happy to say it's been a fairly uninteresting week (except for Iris' conspiracy theory about disappearing heroes). Nothing unexpected has happened, and it feels amazing! No crazy kidnappings, no surprise roommates, not even an unexpected thunderstorm! For once life is peaceful.
Ivy and Cecy came over yesterday. They wanted to meet Iris. Cecily definitely likes her, and I think Ivy does too. At least, she didn't roll her eyes when they met, which is always a good sign with Ivy. We ended up playing bingo with gemstones (hey, I have to do something with them!). I think we've quasi-decided to do this once a week, but I'm not holding my breath. Ivy and Cecy have always had pretty busy schedules.

So Just Who Is Iris Clearwater?
Well, much as I hate to admit it, having Iris as a roommate has been a lot of fun. Though it does have its mishaps. One of her lightening sneezes took out our internet, and we've only just gotten it fixed. I got rid of anything citrusy I may have had after that.
It did occur to me that some of you might not know who Iris is, so I thought I'd explain a little. Of course, it would be easier to just hop on over to her blog, http://www.irisclearwater.blogspot.com/, but if you're too lazy to do that, I'll just explain here.
Iris is a super who makes it rain every time she blinks. Yes, EVERY time. It makes life interesting. And her weakness is that she's allergic to citrus smells, and she makes lightening every time she sneezes. Hence getting rid of all my citrus hand lotion (not that I cared, it wasn't really my favorite scent). To make a long story short (again, you'll want to check out her blog for that), she got on the bad side of a super villain in her area known as Evil Evil, and needed somewhere new. Which is why she showed up on my doorstep.
Well, that's Iris in a nutshell. And I can tell you this, she doesn't like to give you a dull moment.

New Roommate
Sooo... guess who decided to make herself my new roommate? Yep, you guessed it! Iris Clearwater. If you want the reasons behind her surprise move, you can check it out here: http://www.irisclearwater.blogspot.com/
I have to admit, having a roommate again is pretty nice... even if she did show up on my door without letting me know. She's a lot of fun. Even filled the fridge with Dove chocolates for me! :D Though I suspect she used some of my gems to do it.
Aaaaand she's calling for me. Some mini-disaster involving unpacking, I suppose, so I'll tell you more later!
