I can't believe it's only been two weeks since Daddy came home... It seems like longer than that, wow. We've been busy, though; one of his buddies runs this custom cycle shop and offered him a job, and he agreed to hire me too, though I'm pretty sure he thinks I don't know shit about bikes. I mean, I don't know them as well as cars, but I'm not clueless, so I'll just have to show 'im, I guess.

....Then Daddy went out and bought a dog. This big old ugly thing that drools everywhere! He's actually kinda sweet, honestly, but he freaks Laserboy out and she almost set him on fire the first day so he's living at the garage now, so that actually worked out pretty well.

Oh, and I talked Daddy into naming him Bonecrusher, haha. I think it's fitting.

Pearl, your party's still tomorrow, right? When do you want me to come?

Oh, Axel, I never thanked you for showing me around Halloween Town, did I? It was cool, man.

I gotta take Laserboy in to get spayed next week, Tuesday. I can't really afford it right now, but I have to do it, y'know? At least I don't have to worry about her melting my computer screen anymore!

Ty Lee's here again! My room's all smushed with the cot in here, but I really don't mind. It's like a sleepover! Only it never ends, hahah. And Laserboy still sleeps with me~ Good kitten.

Y'know what I just realized, guys? I'm gonna be eighteen in, like, a month!

[Locked from Decepti--well, Blackout, since he's the only one]
The Autobots are still working on their, like, homebase. Sam and I help 'em as much as we can, but we still haven' really told out parents, and we can't exactly disappear out into the desert every day. 'Sides, between Optimus and Ratchet and the Army guys all working on it, we'd probably just get in the way.

It's good to be able to go out there with 'Bee and do what we can, though, y'know? We owe a lot to the Autobots.

Sorry I disappeared so suddenly, everybody. Sam and 'Bee and I decided to rock Vegas, and we figured it'd be a little better to go in the middle of the week instead of over the weekend. Fewer people, we figured, y'know?

Anyway, it was a fun time, though I'm, like, completely broke now. I really need to see if I can't get, like, a part-time job or something, put a little money in my pockets. Maybe convince one of my aunts that my cousins need a babysitter or something, that'd be good.

Laserboy appears not to have melted anything in my absence, and was so happy to see me get back, it was ridiculously adorable. I doubt Jimmy even knew I was gone, haha.

[Mikaela sat at her desk, idly surfing around the Internet. The copy of Sweeney Todd she'd picked up sat next to the monitor, and she hadn't talked to him, but she hoped Apollo would pick it up in person instead of just poofing it there. She hadn't seen him in a while...and she still wanted to meet Chrysilla.

Laserboy meered at her from the bed, demanding she come over and take a nap. When she refused to move from her chair, the kitten gave up and claimed her lap, curling into a ball and starting to purr.

Petting her idly, Mikaela just kept surfing.]

Saw this around the Internet somewhere, and it looked like fun!

( Zombies attack! [Cut IC] )


Laserboy's doing good! Hasn't managed to burn down my room yet, anyway. And I'm pretty positive now that she doesn't just melt stuff, she shoots, like, lasers from her eyes. ...Which is, uh, what I suspected, yeah, but I didn't want to say until I was sure.

No luck training her yet, and I keep finding little holes in stuff. I'm trying to teach her to stay off the top of, like, my dressers and stuff first--I noticed the glass on Jimmy's tank where Laserboy likes to sit and watch him is getting kind of, uh, warped. So I figure if I can teach her not to sit up there, that'd be a pretty good start!


((Meme originally found here. Lol, the Doctor got denied for Spock, haha.))

All right, I had an appointment with the vet for Laserboy today. It was just a check-up, you know? Let the vet meet him, get him into the system, talk about getting him fixed in a couple months, stuff like that.

So I got him into the kitty carrier and had Bumblebee come pick me up, and he wasn't too happy. Crying and meowing and pawing at the bars, I guess he wanted out, you know? And about halfway there 'Bee says something about "unusual temperature readings" coming from inside the thing, and I look over, and all of a sudden the doors open and he's jumping in my lap.

He melted right through the catch on the kitty cab. I, um, didn't see how he did it, but I know he did, and I bet I can guess. He curled up right in my lap and started purring, by the way.

We got to the vet's office without any problems, and I had to put him back in the carrier to take him in, but I guess he didn't mind 'cause I could just pet him through the bars. We got all checked in and the vet took a look at him, and guess what! Turns out Laserboy is a Lasergirl~.

I let him--um, her, haha--ride in my lap on the way back. I guess I'll have to see if I can get a good collar and leash for next time, if she's just gonna melt holes in the carrier. I can't, like, pet her all the time, you know?

The vet didn't find anything wrong with her or weird about her, by the way, so I guess the, um, melting powers or whatever don't show up in, um, vet scans.

Oh my gosh my kitten is here! I found him in a kitty cab on my doorstep when I went out to meet 'Bee and Sam to go to school--definitely didn't expect that, haha. Not that I'm complaining or anything! I'm just glad I decided to pick up kitty litter and a pan and food and stuff while I was running around for Mom yesterday, instead of waiting, 'cause I'd be screwed!

His name's Laserboy, I guess, which is kind of a cute name, and he's sooooo pretty! All red and black, with just a little white mixed in. Gorgeous! If I can ever get my damn camera working right, I'll take a picture, haha.

He found Jimmy, like, right away. He just sits up on my desk and stares at him swimming around in his tank. I hope he's not thinking about trying to eat him. Do cats even want to eat turtles? I have no clue.

So I still need to get some stuff for him--toys and treats, and, like, a scratching post and maybe a bed, if he decides he doesn't wanna sleep with me at nights. He's gonna have to rough it for a couple days, though, 'cause I don't really have time 'til finals are over. And I have to talk to Mom about getting him fixed. He may potentially be some kind of mutant freak kitty, but that doesn't mean he gets to get out of that~.

His eyes are so pretty, it's awesome.

Ugh. Back to studying. Hopefully Laserboy won't mind me petting him with one hand and turning pages with the other.

((Mikaela's new kitty! He can shoot lasers out of his eyes, which she suspects, but won't really believe until she sees it happening. Also, he will turn out to be a she~, but 'Kaela hasn't figured that out yet either. |D;;))
