1. Ship Log of theWinchester Household
Captain: Ivy Phantasma

2. Week 1:
Grew up happily with twin brother Gabriel. Both
of us received good-luck makeovers from Mother.
Got engaged to Leo. Charming fellow. Is a bit
over-obsessed with the idea of small test subjects,
but he will do.
Moving into his house tomorrow. I intend to give
it a decent scrubbing from top to bottom.

3. Week 2:
Got married to Leo. He was thrilled.
Spent time with siblings. There was a party at
Linder’s house. Found discrepancy; small test
subjects everywhere, yet party appeared to be a
wedding. Still no conclusive results.
Bindi is very happy, despite having three young test
subjects and another coming in some days. I fear
she is somewhat deluded.

4. Week 3:
Have begun first professional thesis. Suspect
imminent arrival of small test subject. Leo is thrilled.
Small test subject arrived. Leo calls it Christine.
Have finished first thesis. Test subject is quite
delightful; all smiles and giggles. Leo looks quite
worn out; perhaps he is ill.

5. Week 4:
Small test subject has been presented with variety of
activities; prefers most the creativity device.
Still hope for small one; she is interested in travel
and other such things. Also expecting another small
test subject.
Christine is beginning to look like Bindi. It is most
unnerving; I never knew Bindi as a child, yet
Christine is precisely as I have always pictured her.
It is most disturbing.
No word from Gabriel in quite some time.

6. Week 5:
Small test subject is imminent.
Have purchased new laboratory. Christine refuses to
share a room with small test subject. Leo quite
agrees.
Have been working on another thesis. Twins and
what happens to those who lose them. Still have not
heard from Gabriel.

8. Much of Ivy’s log has been lost from this point on, and exists only in memory.
It’s quite a pity, although admittedly I do not miss the horrid photography.
She gave birth to twins, named Aspher and Rhia after a fictional prince and
princess from my early high school writings. Christine went to university in class
with Xena, Dena, and Wesley. The twins were rather neglected; Leo was rather
burned out and Ivy had little use for any of the children.
Ivy fostered a pair of teens after all her children had gone, mostly to relieve the
monotony of my using her house as a Corgi breeding ground. They were a young
witch and warlock, orphaned due to a complete accident.

9. Gabirel did indeed stop calling. He did get married to Leo’s twin Maria, who
gave birth to a son. Both of them spent a good long time in the Sim bin; they
have only come back into rotation very recently after I developed a use for the little
boy and his subsequent brothers. There will not be a chapter for Gabriel; not
anytime soon.
Tune in soon for a return to Bindi’s house and her charming young ones, then a
visit to Phantasma University. I look forward to seeing you.
