==S7E26 - Keep Away==
2021, December 14th
Dr. O'shay recommended that I keep a journal to log my thoughts in case of memory corruption. This recommendation came after she helped me repair my Atlas body for the second time this month, likely out of a sense of worry for me. I'm still not sure what to really call Dr. O'shay and my relationship beyond 'legal guardianship'.
My Atlas body got damaged this time in a fight against an alternate reality version of myself named 'Titan'. From what little I gleaned from our meeting, they are from a timeline in which I never escaped from Falcon & Fox. I wonder if this is because they tried and failed, or if their timeline's Dr. O'Shay never brought the idea of escape to their mind at all. Regardless of the reason, Titan exists as a statement of who I could have been if things had gone differently, and for that I am grateful.
Titan was working alongside other 'evil' versions of my teammates, and from what others have told me this is not a rare occurrence. I have yet to hear about others meeting 'good' versions of themselves and so I wonder if this is because 'good' is less common and we are just lucky, or if 'evil' is just more likely to interfere in other realities.
At any rate, if it wasn't for preset time limit on our fight it is very likely that Titan would have won. While I am glad for out good fortune, I am worried about future meetings and so plan on gauging possible avenues for increasing my combat capabilities in a way that would allow myself to get an upper hand verses my 'twin'.

==S7 Finale - On the Shores of Avalon==
2022, January 10th
Magic confounds me, and despite my growing hatred for the subject my drive to understand the concept grows stronger. Today, my hero duties took my to the world of Avalon, a world that seems to live in a constant cycle of reliving the legends of King Arthur from legend. As we journeyed to this 'world', the concept of fate was brought up as I tried to understand... well everything. So far I haven't encountered an occurrence of fate that hasn't or will not lead to suffering. A number of my friends seem to be effected by this phenomenon, leading me to wonder if we can do anything about fate itself, or if we are all just pawns in a game we cannot comprehend. 
On our quest, which was to find and help the latest 'Arthur', we ran into Tyr, god of war and justice. I had recently learned that my friend Misty is a daughter of the god Loki, which explained her fury at seeing him. She demanded an answer as to why he had locked away her brother, who I assume to be Fenrir, and his answer only grew her fury as well as mine. To think that someone would put the 'good' of a small selection of beings over their close friend, it brings me to anger even thinking about it.
Speaking of those that have been chained, I learned about my friend Angy's situation. Finding out that she is locked in her current form against her will has only strengthened my drive to understand magic. Originally only interested so that I could strengthen myself, I now wish to do so to help my friends break free of the chains that bind them, literally in Angy's case and metaphorically for those whose fate has been spoken and locked in place.
At the end of our quest, I kneeled down in front of the next fated king of Avalon and swore to help him with whatever he needed. I made this oath in a moment of emotion and hope that I will not have to break it. 
On a different note, I asked Nat about relationships and how someone would know if they feel romantic attraction towards someone else. While I appreciated her help, I am still confused about how I feel. Her explanation focussed on comparing feelings to someone to the feelings you have to the rest of your friends. The confusing part, is while I think that I feel the way she said attraction feels, I feel it towards many members of the team. I hope I understand soon.
