Other than fearing what may become if her vampiric nature is left unchecked, Mina keeps her steel control over herself for another reason - although she may have now come to terms with what she has become, Mina is repulsed by what she is, particularly when it comes to feeding. Mina takes no pleasure in the killing of humans to sustain herself and does so only for necessity. It is her hope that one day she may be able to find an alternate solution. She has tried other methods before, mostly in terms of animal blood, and while they can sustain her they do not do so with as great an intensity. Between lovers, research and being approached to join the League, Mina kept herself mostly hidden - protecting others from herself; she fears seeing and feeling the same repulsion from others that she feels from herself. Mina doesn't relate well to others, a mix of her being a vampire and keeping herself hidden from others. Many things which would concern others - politics or general world views - have little impact upon Mina and her thoughts - she's seen the world change before and knows that she'll see it change many times again.

First Person (entry type): There isn't a day that passes when I don't think about him - Jonathan, even the events that transpired that summer. I suppose when you're left as I have been - cursed - that it becomes hard not to. Occasionally I do wonder if there was something then that we overlooked, if we were naive. I wasn't there for Lucy, Jonathan needed me but so did she, it seems. It had begun long into that summer, long before I travelled to Jonathan, and we missed it. Perhaps I'm naive in believing that we could do anything. They may say that hindsight often provides you with the option or explanation which you missed but... I'm reluctant to believe that entirely. I suppose all that's left now is prevent the future from becoming as destructive as the past has been. Time often does like to repeat itself.
