Just a note

Hi Everyone,
I just thought I should let you know what's been happening around here the last while.
It's been pretty quiet since Wie got back. She and Mom and Dad have been doing the domestic bliss thing.
Dad still goes out on patrols sometimes but he's not finding anything anymore. Kinda like everything up and lit outta town. I think it's because Dad's kicked their collective butts back to whatever hell spawned them.
School is actually pretty quiet. I think my teachers are kinda surprised by it all. They keep waiting for me to get into trouble, but it doesn't happen because there is nothing to get me into trouble. I have been kicking butt on the archery team. I like it because I can be measured against the boys too, and kick their butts. The coach says he expects I'll probably take the next state meet. Dad says that if things stay quiet like this we'll go after deer together next season.
Other than getting my driver's licence, things have been pretty boring overall.
Well except Peter. He's still on his hunt for whoever it was that killed his father. He's talking about some sort of professional assassin that was after his dad and how his dad was a bodyguard or a policeman or something. The story changes a little bit each time. I am starting to worry about him, but it's still good to spend some time with him out on our runs.
MJ has really changed too. Other than the first time we met, she's been pretty friendly to me. But now she's distant. She talks about what it was like to loose her mother and her sister a lot. I don't think she's ever really got herself sorted out about it. Now with her dad gone . . . I'm worried about her too.
I met the uncle they are staying with now. I don't think he's their real uncle. While Pete and MJ are light and fast, this guy is huge and kinda stumbles about. He's like a big ol' bear wearing a man's clothes. Reminds me of Kolya, but there's something a little more feral in his eyes. I don't think the guy likes me. When I met him he started sniffing the air like he smelled something strange.
Not Dad hasn't shown up since that incident in the restroom. It's good not to have him rattling around in my skull, but having him roaming free isn't any better. Stranger still, since he left I haven't been able to have any dreams with my dad or grandfather in them. I wonder what that means?
I do sometimes dream of the faeries and their world. The Grugach and I have lots of long talks, mostly about farming and plants and stuff. Sometimes we talk about my mother when she was little. Occasionally I visit the palace of the Holly King or the Oak King, though I make sure to stay away from Greenwood. I don't think Robin has totally forgotten what happened yet.
How is everyone else doing out there? It's been a long time since I talked to any of y'all.
