I'm a Lawyer Now!!
Jarrs is a really smart bean! He gave me 3 degrees in stuff (I think one is law, because we needed it), so now I'm qualified in stuff! I never really went to school since we travelled all the time. I mostly learned from watching TV and talking to people. I'm not great with all those science things like Jiore or machines like Jarrs, but I can dance real well so I hope one of my degrees wound up being that.
Anyway, today Mark got put in jail after he crashed a car through a criminal hideout. We were trying to be sneaky but I couldn't stop him since they injected me with weird stuff that made my brain all fuzzy and I accidentally called Captain Alessia! I nearly had a heart attack. She's so smart and talented and stuff and I don't need her thinking I'm like not those things. I think I played it off pretty well, I hope.
Anyway, Mark was in jail. So we figured out how to get to him, and wow there's a lot of adult stuff that's really hard. I had to get a passport for the police station area and there were a whole lot of armed police there. Real scary stuff! Also, we had to bribe guards. We went through a whole lot to get to Mark and then he turned around and tried to headbutt us. Rude! Like does he have any idea how hard we tried to help him out. No, because he's a selfish idiot who doesn't think about other people. He's been nothing but a rude man to me and still I keep trying to help him out. Onyx managed to pay his bail, which was kind of him. He has a court date, but I still don't know if I want to help him with it. He's just mean. Now that we said we'd be his legal council though he can't have anyone else do it. So we're kinda stuck.
I just wanted to audition for Star Search, I didn't expect to get roped in with all of this. Like, taking down the criminal guys was fun, and rescuing the lady was really heroic, but then we have to help Mark and get no thanks for trying as hard as possible.
I'm also in really big trouble with Madame Gelezzi. She seems angry that we stopped those criminals. We were mostly careful while doing it though! Jarrs' mom didn't mind that he did it! Why am I in trouble!??!
Today has been a real rollercoaster I tell you.
Holy Wow
I got past the auditions!! THE Motion is going to be MY mentor! Never in my wildest dreams did I actually expect it to go so well. Like, getting accepted onto the show was one thing but now I'm going to be mentored by a literal star. I was worried that my act would be pretty bad without my stage sword, but my solar weapon turned out to do the job quite nicely, and the black hole really added some fanciness. Maybe I would make a good Solarian after all... but I still need to give this mote back to Onyx as soon as I can, after Star Search though... and we still need to get Jarrs his dirt... eventually though!
We managed to get Violet back in one piece, and I'm starting to figure out how driving works. It's scary and dangerous, but if you just hope really hard then everything will make sense. I didn't have much room to be scared though since I'm still riding a pretty good high from my success. Mark was pretty mad that we stole his car, and I did feel pretty bad after he started swimming back to town. All we wanted was to take a few minutes to move Violet around, but noooo Mark the AI thief who hates all machine based life wouldn't let us.
I bought him some bullets for his gun, which is apparently really rare, and he started crying. It was really uncomfortable, because I feel for him but also he's really mean to everyone and acts like a weird internet basement person so I also don't feel for him. He needs to lighten up. Like sure we keep doing dangerous things, but dangerous things are actually turbo fun! Being safe would have meant that we would never have found Violet, or rode the Death-Fish, or even gotten onto Star Search!
Oh! Shep and Jarrs made a friend and he invited us over, so that's really nice. I also need to help that shop owner to get a passport so he can get to the privileged district!
I can't wait to see the Circus again and tell them all about this! They seem worried about me at the moment, but I think that they'll understand when I explain it first-hand.
oh!!! I need to send one of the selfies to Captain Alessia! There's definitely one in there that'll grab her attention
I EXPLODED!
22nd of Abadius, 320 AG
Dear Diary, you aren't going to believe this! We got attacked in our sleep by some strange plant lizard thingys and it was really scary! The strangest thing happened too, I exploded! There was a flash of blue fire and when I opened my eyes I saw that I had accidentally burned the others. It did get Jars out of a trap but other than that not a lot of good came of it. I also still can't make a good light sword! It's really frustrating, everyone else is really good at this and then I'm just tripping over everything. I feel so useless! If this stupid ball had just stayed with Onyx then this wouldn't have happened! He knows how all of this works, like the explosion happened because of some weird balance of the universe thingy, but I don't understand. Apparently there's another thing I can do called BLACK HOLE! That sounds turbo dangerous and I don't know if I want to do it but I think that I'll have to if I want to be useful and not let anyone down. I just want to get off of this planet! I want to see the family again, they always kept me safe! Speaking of keeping people safe actually we managed to save someone from the other half of my pod, the Contemplative! They're still alive, and we managed to get them back to camp! Oh and the planet is apparently electric, which is super weird.
-Reminder.
Shep wants a ticket to the next available show.
Survival is a lot harder than it looked on TV

Dear Diary,
I haven't really written in you in a while so I'm really sorry about that. Most of the pages here are filled with dancing routines and stuff and I haven't really had time to write anything like this down for a while. Oops.
Anyway, wowee it has been a hard day. Like usually I say that when I had to do a lot of lifting before a show or when I sprain my ankle because of a messed up jump but this time I really mean it. The ship crashed. It fell out of space and now I'm stuck on an island with a few other survivors. They're an alright bunch, but some of them are a little odd. Mark keeps talking about this like it's a really fun gap year as opposed to a tragedy where people died. It's really worrying, and I think he needs therapy.
Oh! I also accidentally stole a Solarian's light ball from around his head when I passed out from banging my head and now I can make a cutlass out of light when I concentrate really hard, but I had to unlock it first. It's looks kinda like a star, but you can't cook anything on it or make it into anything but a sword so I've been a little lost on what to do with it to be honest. I use swords when I dance, but I can't say that there's much need for dancing right now.
There's a Raxilite among the survivors who is really smart and knows how to work technology and we went fishing to see if our makeshift pole could work and it actually did! Jars said that he could maybe build a spaceship out of here so I might not miss Star Search if we are good enough.
I miss everyone back home already, and I can't even text them to let them know that I'm ok. I hope they don't think I'm dead.
Stay Fresh,
Lissi
