Finley Cai Aies Hall March 30th, 20XX
I awoke at five in the morning to see a symphony of pencils and erasers doing the various school and work assignments I had been working on last night. First I tried to search my mind for an explanation but I quickly gave up and instead opted to bring out the Diary and ask.
Why are my pencils and erasers doing my work for me?
Would you like them to stop?
Due to my grogginess I first shook my head in response but then realized the futility of it and wrote my response.
Not necessarily but if it's all incorrect then it's just an inconvenience .
Everything that is written is pulled directly from your memories. I just helped you create a few sprites to help you complete your tasks. They are essentially just extracted thought that can dissipate at your will.
Not quite understanding but still quite satisfied with the explanation I made myself a cup of coffee and started to prepare for school and work while my work was completed.
As it was I only remebered my concern aftrer my second cup. I recounted the story of being seen by Sparrrow the past night,
So what do I do?
A single human seeing a Fairy makes no difference because humans cannot come to our world anyways . There is also the fact that Fairies do occasionally travel to the human world and grant humans wishes as a part of the graduation or coming of age ceremony; You will have to undergo it as well.
If you wish, you can add her as an ally to keep your life here sorted out when you have to make extended leaves but otherwise if she never sees you in your fairy form again she will eventually dismiss it as a delusion.

I immedietaly calmed down after and quickly gathered my materials for both work and school and loaded them into the car Will had insisted I got. His main argument was that it would be better to show up like an actual boss in a car than to magically appear out of nowhere because it creeped the employees out.
I parked a bit further away from the school than I would have preferred and walked the rest of the way, after all it would be pointless to keep my wealth a secret but show up everyday in a fancy car.
There was also the added incentive of not wanting it wrecked by avid followers of Alice who would want to get back at me for yesterday’s altercation.
At this, I could only sigh as I realized that my plan had backfired on me.
Instead of being kicked from the group and fading back into obscurity as I had wanted; I would either have to be bullied through the next semester until graduation or make my own front to defence against her offence.
I had underestimated her pride and more importantly I had gravely underestimated the devotion of her followers and was currently paying the price for it.
I would have to form a group and the first person I would enlist would have to be a right hand man, like the one called Jake. he seemed like a reasonable guy and was decently popular on his own even without Alice’s support.
I would need a strong ally as well, which would have to be Sparrow, Will’s sister. While it hurt my pride a bit to receive aid from both siblings I wasn't so prideful as to let it stop me.
I got to school an hour earlier than needed and brought out the annoying mask and a hat to cover my undone hair. The grand plan was to launch the new group as soon as possible, solidify our reign during the showcase in july and over take Alice’s, but for that I would need to push a bit of my weight around.

I walked into the staff room where all the staff was gathered and took a seat at the head of the table. Their eyes bored holes into me but it was almost nothing in comparison to Cambridge’s hawk-like stares so I was able to ignore them.
I tapped the files in front of me and smiled as charmingly as possible, a tactic that due to my new features was useable.
“ Shall we begin?”
