"W00t!! I get to make an entry in her journal! Yay!
I wanted to post my story here. I know that mine isn't as exciting as Neandr's, but I still want to put down how I came into Amanda's family.

Lessee.... I was in the middle of training, as usual, when I suddenly couldn't see anymore. I was right about to attack my sparring partner, when I stopped. I couldn't see or feel anything. I didn't know what was going on, so I looked around and swiped at the darkness, trying to make it go away. Well, it didn't work. And suddenly, I could see again! So I turned around, and I was in this weird place. There was this big 10-foot tall guy with an animal's face looking at me, and another poppet there too! So I keep looking, and the poppet looks at me like I'M the weird one, when he's the one that's not in heaven! So I turn more, and to the big guy's left, there was this little human. He was all scrawny, and had curly dark hair, and glasses on. And he was using something on his face, which I later found out was called a phone. And he was talking to someone on the other end of it. So I figured out that I had probably been summoned, and I didn't like it, because God was going to be angry if I didn't get back to work.
There I was, just standing there, staring at the little human and wondering what he had wanted from me. Still wondering what the other poppet was doing there, but mostly interested in the human now. And he sort of laughed, and looked at me and said 'I have a friend that I'm talking to through the phone right now. She needs you to help make her magick stronger.' And I figured I was stuck so I said, 'okay.' And then the little human sort of shrugs, and then asks me what my name is. I look at him and say 'I don't have a name.'
And there was some weird sort of squeal on the phone, and then the human (Angel, I later found out) laughed and asked me if I wanted a name. And I told him I didn't care, that it wouldn't make any difference to me. So Angel tells the person on the phone to give me a name, and I'm still standing in his room, just looking at him. I didn't want to look at the other spirits, because they were just... off, to me. It takes a while, and then Angel says 'I don't know. As long as you like it.' And the person on the phone says something, and then he sighs and smiles and looks at me and asks me 'What do you think of the name Ganon?'. I hated it. It sounded stupid and made-up to me. But what did I know? I'd never had a name before. So I told him 'I don't care. A name's a name.' And there's the squealing on the other end of the phone again, and then Angel says 'Oh my geezles, Amanda! He doesn't care!' and I think I could hear her say 'But I want him to like it!', but I'm not sure.
So there I was, with my new name, and no idea what to do with it. And Angel says that he's going to have his friend call my new name, and I'm going to go to her and take care of her. I shrugged and decided 'what the heck? It gets me out of training for a while.' (which isn't the way a poppet should think, but it was just such a relaxed atmosphere that I couldn't help it.) And I wait for a minute, and then I hear REALLY loudly, somebody practically shouting 'GANON!!!' in my head. And I get this image of some girl waving this big flag around that says 'Ganon' on it. So I figure that's her, and I go to wherever she's shouting. I met her then Guardian, Jude, ( xp ), and I went about taking care of her like I was told. At first, I didn't care so much. You know? She was just some weak human who couldn't even think of a good name. But she was so friendly, and I started to like her a lot. And then she got to the point where she could actually talk to Jude and I, and it was such an amazing feeling. Because by that time, I liked her a lot. She was my family, and I wanted to take care of her and make sure she was always okay and never hurting. (Which is why it upset me so much when we found out what Jude was doing.) And we slowly talked, and then I got this thing called a 'crush' on her. And we worked past that, and now it's gotten to the point where Jude is gone, and I'm her Guardian now. I'll always protect her, and I'll always be here for her, and I'll never do anything to hurt her. I know that Jude promised the same thing, but here's the difference between him and me: I actually mean it."
