Act 3, Scenes 3-6

Hey subjects, I just had the most terrible evening EVER, like OMG. So MacBeth hired some murderers to have Banquo and his son Fleance taken care of, but they, like, totally failed and only killed Banquo. Fleance is still a threat!

Remember how we were throwing a banquet? Well, when MacBeth came he started to act extremely strange! I’m really not kidding. Apparently he saw Banquo’s ghost sitting in his royal seat at the table. Everybody thought he was insane. First, I tried to cover for him by telling everyone that this happens all the time, and that they shouldn’t pay any attention to it. MacBeth is lucky he has me to cover for him like this. Then I tried to get him to snap out of it. I told MacBeth that he does this when he’s afraid, and that he was acting like a woman, not a man. Like, has MacBeth become completely incapable or something? Then he continued to act like a complete lunatic. I guess he thought he saw Banquo’s ghost again. I was absolutely mortified, and had to get everyone to leave before we’d really even started! Why can’t MacBeth just DEAL with it?

And things just keep on getting worse. MacDuff purposefully didn’t show up tonight. He hasn’t supported MacBeth’s reign at all, and we think he might try to oppose it. Great, another threat to deal with... Anyways, MacBeth is going to go talk to the witches again tomorrow. Hopefully we can find out more information. For now, I’m going to try and sleep, but MacBeth and I haven’t been getting very much of it lately. TTYL :(
