[Locked to allies]

I'm starting to want to get the hell off-world. That kinda sucks, considering I spent so much time wanting to be back here, and fought so hard for it. But this crap- I don't know how to deal with it anymore. After the last one, Song and I set up some pretty elaborate traps to maybe catch whoever's doing this.

So much for that! I went to fetch a book from our room, which meant passing through Eli's nursery. He was sleeping, no problem. I swear I was only in the other room for a few seconds, and when I walked back into the nursery...

Stick figure on the floor in front of the crib. I mean, what the bloody- I grabbed Eli and started checking traps. Once I saw the first couple were gone- I don't know. I guess I just lost it. I don't even remember grabbing my laptop, or deciding to hide in the closet. Then Jalen was pulling the door open and staring, and-

I want to go to Heatherfield. Seeing Gran and Granddad would help, and they've only found those two dolls and neither was in the house, so... Except I got an e-mail from Granddad today, saying how he didn't mean to worry me but he knew I'd be more upset if he hid it. They found a stick figure sitting on the floor in front of Eli's crib today.

I feel like I'm going nuts. Or maybe paranoid.



Jalen had a hell of a time getting me out of the closet, but I finally came out because he took Eli for his snack and diaper change, and I couldn't bear to let my Ladybug out of my sight. 'Course, once that was done I took him and hid again. This time Song sat outside the door and talked to me for a while. I think it was her threat of throwing swing sets into every dream I have for the next week that did it. I don't think I'm going to let myself sleep much though.

Are you sure you didn't take apart the traps in your sleep? You people play with dream magic, right? Could you have been acting out a nightmare?

Okay, so it's a long shot. I can hope, though, right?

I haven't been sleepwalking lately. I tend to know when I have been since I wake up somewhere other than my bed. Nice thought, though.

Eli really likes the snow globe you gave him. Laughs every time I shake it.

If you say so.

Cool. I was worried I should have gotten him a more baby-proof toy. Do ya think he'd like the feather toy I strung together for him when he was a kitten?

...He'd probably eat it. lol. He tried to eat the cotton ball I stuck on his chin Halloween, too.
