Cinderella's Writings

$5,495 for a pair of shoes.

Sometimes I wish I was as rich as everybody thinks I am.

Nothing says "Happy Valentine's Day" like a bullet wound. Or two. More than ever I'm grateful for my popularity power. Still, just because I can survive being shot doesn't meant I like it, Specially when I'm the one that runs head first into the armed guards while the rest of the team follows at turtle speed!

Chilvary is dead, my friends.

I can't say I didn't like the time off. There was much shopping. I think I'm getting a new car. something red and flashy that I can show off around Fabletown. The Aston Martin is fabulous but I'd like to try something new. Any suggestions?

There is something seriously wrong with whoever comes up with this.

I feel like I should wash my eyes with bleach after seeing that. Or maybe buy myself a nice pair of sandals to remind me that not all shoe designers of the world have gone mad.

Guess who had to make a jump from the top of the Burj Khalifa after taking down a couple of Ghols last night?

So glorious! Have I mentioned how much I love my job? Because I really do. Specially when flying is involved.

How many around here are good at skidiving? Perhaps we could try it all together sometime.

Well, this has been fun. Though it looks like my new boots won't be doing the growing up thing with me. Oh well, can't win them all.

Can I be a bird next time?

i need help.

I think Frau wants to cash in a favor. Shit.

Despite what most of Fabletown may think, I do honor my debts, but I swear this woman is out to get me. If she could send me off to fight a dragon with a paper sword and a dress soaked in gasoline, it would make her day.

Or maybe not. I owe her way too many favors. And who else is going to do all that dirty work if I am killed?

I am tempted to make the trip to San Jose to see this if I get any time off. It's been a while since I've seen this particular version. Not the worst one out there, but I do appreciate the popularity each and every one of them keep bringing, even if they make me look like a doormat most of the time.

Just when I thought I'd seen everything, along comes something like.... this

The future of fashion or a new shiny looking torture device? I could certainly conceal a couple of weapons inside those babies.

There is pumpkin pie in the break rooms I told you those pumpkins wouldn't last long in my hands.

Looks like Argentina next week. Considering the adventures I had last time I was there, I'm really looking forward to whatever this assigment brings. Say, anyone here good at tango? I'd love a little practice.

I don't believe I said this last time we met. But a very belated thanks and you're welcome Happy Birthday to you, querido.

You know, the whole surveillance/escape part of the missions would be a lot easier if I could just fly away. Not just the quick assembly artifitial stuff (I love you, W&T department) but actual flying. How unbelievably cool useful would to just be able to turn into a bird every once a while.

While I'm aware Halloween is just around the corner, I really don't need all those pumpkins on my desk. Despite what you may have heard, they won't turn into carriages just by being near me. What will happen to them with me involves a very sharp knife and I ain't talking about carving, so if you wish to see your pumpkins in one piece come October 31st, please remove them.

Back from Santarém! The whole thing turned out to be a low level but rather clever sorcerer pretending to be a Moura. Can't get over how many fell for that. I guess the promise of gold from a beautiful woman will make people do stupid things.

Things ran smoothly except for a flat tire afterwards. And while it's good to know that there's still gentlemen in the world that will stop to help a lovely girl out and ask for nothing in return, it can be a little frustrating watching them change a tire when you know you're strong enough to lift the car with your bare hands to make things faster.

An old friend got me a gift certicate for this. AFF program. I'd totally use it but I got my A-License a while ago. Would anyone want it? I'd be more than happy to come along as... moral support. Like you can keep me on the ground for long.

I've found a new place. Just half an hour away from the office, great view and I'm turning a spare bedroom into a walk in closet. If anyone in Fabletown unaware of my action packed double life ever comes visiting, I'll just tell them I got myself a sugar daddy.

Iori, do you want to help me move? Furniture is already there, but I got about a dozen containers full of clothes and I could really use a hand. I'll take you shopping afterwards if you say yes.

Lyra! Could you drop by my apartment before we head out? I got you something for tomorrow night and I'd like to make sure it fits.

Looks like it's you against me, love. Would you like to get together and talk about it?

Maybe getting a place outside the Bureau is not a bad idea. Nothing too big, but fancy enough to aid my "pretty girl living way above her means" outside image. I will look into it once I finish this surveillance job. Looks I'm finally getting somewhere. At least the ogres from last time took action almost right away!

[Filter - Technology and Weapons]

Hey, guys! I was wondering what would you recommend in the way of bugs. I need something that can record a two hour conversation and small enough to fit in one of these. Thanks ahead.

Is there really a problem? New guy in charge and he wants to know what he's getting into. Anyone who's done her job well shouldn't be at risk if he wants to keep this show on the road.

I barely know him, but then again I barely knew Layla and she seemed pretty good at her job. I'm reserving judgement for now. And he does turn out too much of a jerk... well, I've dealt with worse and even he turned out okay in the end

Looks like the past few weeks of surveillance are getting me somewhere. On the bad side, I haven't had the time to check out Iori from the cafe. Cute kid. Hopefully he won't be a threat.

Well, being interrogated was certainly fun.

I'll give this Rorschach character some credit though. He's intimidating enough if you let your guard down. Cannot stay mad at him for long. I understand that off the books work is not pretty and that a certain attitude is required. At least he's never had to wear expensive lingerie and bat his eyelashes to seduce a target into confession. I hope.

This time off is getting to me. I could use a little sword practice. Any takers?

Back from Los Angeles. Beautiful weather. Great shoe stores. Half a dozen virgin-eating ogres put out of business.

Had two knives in me and they were indeed taken away. Used stilletos instead.

Got your dogs, kiddo. You didn't tell me where to get them so I went for Gray's Papaya. They seemed to have hold out just fine in the lunchbox. With all the things going missing lately, I'd rather deliver them in person.
