Thia - my poor, poor Thia - was followed home after her last lecture today, by some tall badtard wearing a suit.
She was hysterical when she got in, and immediately started bleeding straight out of her nose, coughing like a plague victim. When she could talk through her coughing fits, she wouldn't stop telling me about how unnaturally tall he was, how his limbs were just a little too long for his body.
Or a lot too long.
With Snow White skin, and no face.
Logic compels me to believe that this is some fool in a mask. It can't be anything else. A mask and stilts. That's all it can be. And I'll kill him when I find out who it is.
I... Told her I would.
She started shaking her head frantically, begging me not to.
No face.
This is too much. I'm not sure she can handle any more of this madness - and she's always been sturdier than me, believe it or not. I can kick ass, but without her I'm more like a psychological and emotional wreck.
I'm really not dealing with this as well as I'm sure I come across.
She said we were being followed.
And he chased her - whoever it is.
I want to hurt him.
But I don't know if I can, with her reaction like that. She's not prone to unreasonable panic.
Maybe we should leave town for a bit. Next time we get a week's holiday we'll...
I don't know. Get a hotel room in Liverpool? She likes Liverpool.
I'm going to keep her safe.
I'm going to find a way.
I just wish I knew what was going on.
Good night, my friends. Be safe, and may we all live on til morning.
