Greetings Siblings of the church! It is Cardinal Dante yet again, but this time I am joined by Phantom! My punishment is over, and I can go back to work, so I have been taking advantage of that and snuck into my office early this morning to do any of the work that's piled up. Schools also started back up, but since I'm a cardinal, I'm mostly 'home schooled', meaning that I don't have to go to the traditional school that all the other underage siblings here go to. I get a packet each month that I have to work through and return to the teachers. Technically, it's supposed to last the entire month, but I usually finish it the first week and hand them back at the end of the month like normal.

Phantom came to visit me after he was finished with Band Practice. He seemed really down, and after a bit of coaxing, he told me he wasn't getting along well with the other ghouls, or siblings. I was the first sibling to actually show him kindness. Which, siblings, is so... So... Augh???? Why haven't any of you been showing him a modicrum of respect??? He says that everyone says that he's replacing his brother, or that he's taking his brothers spot, which is not true! Phantom is sweet, nice, and he hasn't been any sort of mean to me since I've known him.

Anyways, after giving him a healthy bit of reassurance, I finished all of my paperwork and decided to go on a little mission to Papa Copia's office. See, some of my paperwork needs to be signed off by Papa Copia, as he's my senior. Usually, Cardinal Mickelson does it, but as hes been swamped with work lately, I headed to Papa Copia. He seemed to be suprised Phantom was trailing me around when I got there, and even more suprised when I explained to him why Phantom came to me. Rest assured, dear siblings who have given Phantom respect, Papa Copia had told me that he'll deal with the issue!!

He was also happy I finished all of my work, but very confused when I showed him the ritual sheet. See, for those who are not in the church, usually every two weeks(Around the full moon), we do a Ritual. I know some of you think you know what it is because you've gone to the bands shows, but the rituals at the church are much, much different. I can't actually explain it, nor can I tell you what happens at them, as i've actually never went to one. The rituals are for 18 and up, and I, dear siblings, am not 18. I've unfortunately got a few more years to go before I hit it.

Anyways, Papa Copia was confused because apparently I'm not supposed to be doing the Ritual sheet things. It's only for the adults and senior Cardinals to see. I told him I'd been doing it since I became Cardinal, and he told me to leave the ritual sheet there and that he'd figure out who gave me permission to do it. After that, me and Phantom left, and ran straight into Papa Terzo.

It looked like he had gotten a bloody nose- his mouth and front of his cassock was all bloody, and I swear there was blood in his hair. He looked shocked to see me, and Phantom even looked suprised. He muttered quick appologies in what I think was Italian before fleeing into Papa Copia's office, shutting the door behind him. I asked Phantom about it, but he said he wasn't privy to what the Papa's were- which, piqued my interest. I asked him what he ment, but Phantom clammed up after that, and didn't ssy anything else about that.

Sisters and brothers, I think I have a mystery on my hands. A confusing and twisting one at that. I thought that the Papa's were human, but... From what it seems- from what Phantom's said, the Papa's are not. Did that have something to do with why the Papa's wore so much make up? Or maybe...

Phantom says I should just leave it alone, and for now, I will. He's a nice ghoul, and I like his companionship more than Swiss. I don't want to chase him away. He told me that he wanted me to come to the ghouls den so we could play video games- but since one of the ghouls was in rut(he refused to tell me what that ment and refused to look at my eyes), the ghouls den was dangerous for humans at the moment. I invited him back to my room instead, and we chatted and played video games for the rest of the day.

Siblings, my mind is full of ideas and questions about the Papa's that I fear I won't get unless I look it up. If any of you have any ideas about what the Papa's are, send me a message. I don't want to bother Phantom, and I know Phil will probably not say anything about it either.

Speaking of Phil, I still don't have my rosary, and I know I told him I wouldn't go back to the greenhouse- however we have Midnight Mass on Sunday, and I will be in attendance- as I am a Cardinal. I need my rosary. I would go back to Phil, but he's probably swamped in work, so I will go back and grab it tommorow. I'll even bring Phantom with me. Atleast, if the ghoul shows back up, Phantom could distract it with his quintessential magic. Wish me luck, siblings.
