This is a super-short little blurb about Nero beginning to write in his journal, aww. I imagine him to be a little scatter-brained when trying to write things down haha. The theme is introduction which comes into play because this is his first entry so it's kind of an introduction to writing.

Everything bolded is Nero's writing, italics are his thoughts, and regular font is the typical narration. Got it!?

Theme: Introduction

Dear Diary

No, I'm not some twelve-year-old girl. How should I start this….

Hey I'm Nero

….This is beyond lame…

Nero abruptly shut the book in front of him and let the pen fall from his left hand. A few weeks ago he had come across the "journal" that Kyrie had given him and today something suddenly possessed him to write something. The only problem was getting the thoughts that were swirling around in his head down onto the blank pages.

He stood up from his desk and sat down on the edge of his bed. Frustrated, he took a swig of the drink resting on his nightstand.

It shouldn't be this hard. It's just a few words scribbled down on a piece of paper right.

The teen stole a glance at the book lying there.

….It's mocking me, I can almost hear it.

Nero tossed his empty drink container into the trash and stood up. He straightened out his pants then strode back to his desk. After taking a seat he resumed his attempt at writing. With a pen in hand and the book open once more he wrote.

Okay, I guess that I can start with the date- that seems normal

September 15, 2013

Good start, now I guess the time?

6:27 pm

Well, here goes.

Today I woke up and ate breakfast. I had juice and a microwave sausage biscuit thing. Later I sat on the couch and read one of Dante's magazines. It was lame. Around noon Dante brought home pizza and I ate that. I get tired of it though and he doesn't even care. Maybe he would care if I punched him in the face!

Hehe, man that would be sweet!

I guess that I shouldn't complain though. He gave me a room and feeds me, even if it is always pizza. Like I think as much as he annoys me maybe I annoy him too. No way, I'm like the coolest roommate ever.

Hmm, I've never thought about that before. What if to him I'm the lazy annoying one?

Maybe I should be nicer. Maybe he should get over himself.

Anyways, there isn't really anything too exciting in my life I guess. I mean I hunt demons but besides that nothing special. I did buy this game the other day. You run around and kill zombies on this island, it's pretty awesome. I haven't told Dante because sometimes my games go missing and I think he takes them. But he doesn't even have a system! Why would he take my games? Maybe he has one hidden in his room; I've never gone snooping through there or anything. Even though that would be pretty interesting….

Nero pondered this for a moment. He had been in the elder slayer's room a few times but not for long periods of time. He went in there last week to wake him up someone had called. Snooping was wrong though, right? Curiosity began to itch at Nero.

Well, this has been pretty lame. I doubt I'll write in here again so whatever.

He closed the book and set his writing utensil down. All he had done was write down the non-interesting details that had happened to him lately. But, it did make him think a little. He had begun writing about one thing and his mind led him somewhere else entirely. He shrugged it off and arose from his seat.

Now that I think about it I better go make sure that my games are all still here….

Author's note: I haven't been writing a lot lately and I don't know what's up. I have plenty of ideas and a story that I'm working on, but I just don't "feel" like writing. *sigh* I'm blaming summer; I get lazy in the summer and veg out all the time...
