Amber Greywind (9:43:48 PM):
Amber Greywind (9:44:05 PM): Is anyone out there?
ara dysphoria (9:44:13 PM): Yes!
Amber Greywind (9:45:40 PM): Anyone here in charge of this abduction? >>...<<...
ara dysphoria (9:45:45 PM): No.
trippin vulpines (9:45:57 PM):
trippin vulpines (9:46:10 PM): ... this human body needs an obscene amount of daily sleep
Amber Greywind (9:46:33 PM): HUamn body? Are you an alien?
trippin vulpines (9:47:41 PM): that damned word again
trippin vulpines (9:47:46 PM): no, a demon
Amber Greywind (9:48:18 PM): A demon? That's so cool. Heh, I could prove demons exist. That would show them.
authorofdiscord (9:48:29 PM): . . . . . . . . .
authorofdiscord (9:48:30 PM): Show who?
Amber Greywind (9:48:38 PM): They think it's silly to be a paranormal investigator. But I'll show them.
Amber Greywind (9:48:43 PM): There is so much evidence here!
ara dysphoria (9:48:50 PM): I do not think it is silly
Amber Greywind (9:49:04 PM): Umm... the.. well... the poeple who make fun of me for it.. and umm the public
trippin vulpines (9:49:10 PM): . . .
trippin vulpines (9:49:25 PM): even if it were possible for you to 'show the public'
trippin vulpines (9:49:26 PM): ....
authorofdiscord (9:50:03 PM): Is there some important reason to be unmasking nonhumans in hiding?
Amber Greywind (9:50:22 PM): Well. Why would they be in hiding?
Amber Greywind (9:50:37 PM): Everyone thinks they don't exist. But I'll prove I'm not crazy.
authorofdiscord (9:50:44 PM): . . . . . . . . Pitchforks and torches do tend to be a bother.
Amber Greywind (9:50:47 PM): And then I will stop talking to myself!
ara dysphoria (9:51:05 PM): Oh, they exist 8D
trippin vulpines (9:51:24 PM): it's rather gratifying to see the torches turned on the mob of fools
Amber Greywind (9:51:28 PM): I know! I know the truth, but no one esle does. Thier small minds can;t comprehend it!
authorofdiscord (9:52:07 PM): ......... You realize that, where we are now, it hardly seems to matter.
authorofdiscord (9:52:15 PM): Nor are some of the nonhumans here even in hiding.
Amber Greywind (9:53:04 PM): I'll escape eventually.
ara dysphoria (9:53:27 PM): Two of the others in this chatroom have admitted to being demons >w>
trippin vulpines (9:53:28 PM): Ha.
trippin vulpines (9:53:47 PM): (( pretend that wasn't capitalized ))
authorofdiscord (9:53:51 PM): .... Let me know when you find a clue. Whatever you find should prove most fascinating.
Amber Greywind (9:53:52 PM): heh awesome
Amber Greywind (9:54:08 PM): So what are you?
ara dysphoria (9:54:28 PM): I am a detective's assistant! 8D
authorofdiscord (9:54:51 PM): I am a butler.
Amber Greywind (9:55:23 PM): Well... Does anyone know where house (?) is? I'm supposed to be with a Sebastian and a Nuel?
authorofdiscord (9:55:45 PM): ..........................................................................................................
authorofdiscord (9:56:03 PM): It's 1b. It will be the one with water seeping out under the doors. I would be Sebastian. And you ar?
authorofdiscord (9:56:06 PM): *are?
ara dysphoria (9:56:38 PM): trippin vulpines = Ha-Neul
trippin vulpines (9:57:11 PM): ...........................................................................
trippin vulpines (9:57:16 PM): belatedly
trippin vulpines (9:57:28 PM): i am a .... king and a commander
Amber Greywind (9:57:30 PM): Dib
Amber Greywind (9:58:35 PM): I'm a paranormal investigator
Amber Greywind (9:58:41 PM): .. Why is there water coming out?
authorofdiscord (9:58:54 PM): The house is somewhat flooded at the moment, I'm afraid. Someone set off the sprinklers trying to burn the furniture, and her clothing.
trippin vulpines (9:59:25 PM): shame you weren't caught in the fire, sir
Amber Greywind (9:59:50 PM): Wow! Are those normal deon habits?
trippin vulpines (10:00:01 PM): ................
authorofdiscord (10:00:03 PM): For some demons, apparently.
Amber Greywind (10:00:17 PM): But you're different?
trippin vulpines (10:00:26 PM): it is a manner of expressing oneself when certain measures are out of reach
Amber Greywind (10:00:49 PM): What measures
trippin vulpines (10:01:45 PM): oh, the usual. finding a scapegoat and feeding shreds of their body to them in pieces
Amber Greywind (10:02:21 PM): drat.. I need a notebook
ara dysphoria (10:02:51 PM): Ithink that demons that are more practiced at blending in would have different ways of expressing protest >w>
Amber Greywind (10:04:36 PM): Hmm... wait, are you also a demon?
ara dysphoria (10:04:43 PM): Of course not 8D
trippin vulpines (10:04:49 PM): i couldn't blend in at my world if i tried, y
trippin vulpines (10:04:51 PM): ...
Amber Greywind (10:05:16 PM): ooh different worlds.
ara dysphoria (10:05:19 PM): I am the assistant to the famous detective Katsuragi Yako! We have dealt with many unusual things on previous cases.
Amber Greywind (10:05:56 PM): What kinds of cases? Bigfoot?
authorofdiscord (10:06:00 PM): I think we covered the different worlds issue earlier, what with one version of Tokyo being flooded out while the other was intact, apparently.
Amber Greywind (10:06:05 PM): I saw hi in my garage.. he was using hte beltsander.
ara dysphoria (10:06:42 PM): No bigfoot as yet, but doppelgangers and genetically-deviant manifestations of pure human malice bent on genocide of the total human race, and signs of demonic meddling!
authorofdiscord (10:07:19 PM): .... .... I'm afraid to ask, but bigfoot?
trippin vulpines (10:07:34 PM): ...
trippin vulpines (10:07:37 PM): doppelgangers?
trippin vulpines (10:07:49 PM): ... what did this one look like the first time you saw it?
Amber Greywind (10:08:10 PM): Bigfoot is a human-like ape that most people belive doen;t exist!
ara dysphoria (10:08:11 PM): Shapeshifter capable of mimicking others so exactly as to be able to fool family members. He looked like an old lady the first time I saw him, but is usually a short albino boy.
trippin vulpines (10:08:26 PM): .... hnf. nevermind
ara dysphoria (10:08:29 PM): He is harmless now.
Amber Greywind (10:08:39 PM): How is he harmless now?
authorofdiscord (10:08:48 PM): ..... An ape. Well, odd enough, I suppose.
Amber Greywind (10:09:17 PM): A intelligent ape, that lives in the forest, but humans don't see him.
ara dysphoria (10:09:18 PM): Aaah, circumstances change?
Amber Greywind (10:09:25 PM): How?
authorofdiscord (10:09:40 PM): That happens easily enough. As many rumors of strange beasts are circulating in my time, I'm surprised people find that so odd.
ara dysphoria (10:10:04 PM): Mmmm, things happen that cause people to no longer have reason to do harm.
ara dysphoria (10:10:42 PM): (Ha-Neul: if we are from different worlds, I would not think that our doppelganger would be the same as whatever one you have had interactions with)
Amber Greywind (10:10:46 PM): There's lots of creatures out there. Bigfoot, nessie, ghosts, vampires...
Amber Greywind (10:11:13 PM): That's what I want to do, prove that this creatures exist!
trippin vulpines (10:11:15 PM): .. i forgot, briefly, that there were different worlds
ara dysphoria (10:11:23 PM): Demons 8D
trippin vulpines (10:11:24 PM): doppelganger is a term i've heard too often applied to one being
Amber Greywind (10:12:14 PM): Oh yeah, and dopplegangers and demons and aliens
authorofdiscord (10:12:17 PM): It's a term for a type of being in my world... although I have never met one.
ara dysphoria (10:13:11 PM): Hmm. So it is a single individual where you are from, Neul?
trippin vulpines (10:13:44 PM): his is a nickname gotten from the term, but it only truly applied to him
trippin vulpines (10:13:56 PM): he could take every shape but his own.
trippin vulpines (10:14:23 PM): ..... he had better be keeping my army organized in my absence.
ara dysphoria (10:14:41 PM): ..... ..... It is funny. Ours was likely the only one of his kind as well, but also had the issue of seeking/not knowing his own shape.
trippin vulpines (10:15:09 PM): he knew his own shape, it was simply a matter of a seal preventing him from using it
trippin vulpines (10:15:17 PM): narcissistic son of a bitch was tormented by it
Amber Greywind (10:15:31 PM): So that's normal for dopplegngers?
Amber Greywind (10:15:39 PM): Any way to tell them when they're in another form?
trippin vulpines (10:15:44 PM): are you deficient? i said he was the only one of his own kind in my world
ara dysphoria (10:15:47 PM): Aaah. Much different personality then, and arguably ours had "his own shape", he merely did not recognize it as such.
authorofdiscord (10:16:20 PM): It is likely, Dib, that what applies to something in one world may be vastly different in another.
trippin vulpines (10:16:31 PM): he had a default form as well, true, but it's the form of the one who killed him before he was turned into a demon
authorofdiscord (10:16:32 PM): (Although there must be some things in common, if you were swearing about Valkyries earlier.)
trippin vulpines (10:16:33 PM): i
trippin vulpines (10:16:34 PM): ...
trippin vulpines (10:16:41 PM): *trippin vulpines has left the chat.*
Amber Greywind (10:17:14 PM): But in both cases, the doppelganger doens't know his won form, or can't take it. Even in different worlds!
ara dysphoria (10:17:48 PM): I am not sure that it works as a comparison - ours was a special case in our world, and likely a very different sort of creature from hers
trippin vulpines (10:17:49 PM) has left the room.
trippin vulpines (10:18:02 PM) has entered the room.
Amber Greywind (10:18:36 PM): But same powers same problem. I wish I could get a sample on video..
ara dysphoria (10:18:54 PM): It likely would not work here. I have heard that something is interfering with nonhumans.
Amber Greywind (10:19:14 PM): Oh.
authorofdiscord (10:20:11 PM): The newsletter claims it's some sort of suppression effect; I'm suspicious of anything they have to say, honestly, although something is definitely very off.
Amber Greywind (10:22:00 PM): So an effect that supresses all powers, including natural abilities down to human levels?
Amber Greywind (10:22:07 PM): Wow!
authorofdiscord (10:22:39 PM): .... It's a bloody pain, to be honest.
Amber Greywind (10:22:55 PM): Really? What powers did you have before?
authorofdiscord (10:23:09 PM): Enough to take care of my duties.
authorofdiscord (10:23:41 PM): How old are you, Dib?
Amber Greywind (10:23:42 PM): What duties?
Amber Greywind (10:23:45 PM): 11
authorofdiscord (10:24:04 PM): I was the butler to the Earl Phantomhive - I took care of the household and supported his investigations.
authorofdiscord (10:24:22 PM): Out of curiousity, where are you from and what year was it last you remember?
Amber Greywind (10:25:19 PM): Midland USA, 2007
authorofdiscord (10:25:48 PM): Hm. Well, that remains frustrating.
authorofdiscord (10:26:16 PM): It is a version of earth, at least, then?
Amber Greywind (10:26:30 PM): Yes, it's earth.
authorofdiscord (10:27:12 PM): Have you ever investigated or dealt with demons or Reapers?
Amber Greywind (10:28:00 PM): I did investigate a demon... But mostly I was trying to stop Zim
authorofdiscord (10:28:30 PM): (Ah. I'll have to ask you details sometime, I'm attempting to place if I'm even from the same version of Earth as some of the others here.) ....Zim?
trippin vulpines (10:28:38 PM): I HAVE GUMMY WORMS AND DMOUNTAIN DEWEHLISUDFG
trippin vulpines (10:28:44 PM): (( ... wrong chat )
Amber Greywind (10:28:52 PM): (lol)
trippin vulpines (10:29:08 PM): (( i-i'm sorry i have three different chats in a row on my tabs ))
Amber Greywind (10:29:11 PM): Zim, he's an alien tryong to kill all humans so his armada can conquer the Earth
Amber Greywind (10:29:20 PM): (me too actually :P)
authorofdiscord (10:29:57 PM): How long has he been on Earth?
Amber Greywind (10:30:07 PM): About a year now
Amber Greywind (10:30:26 PM): He's disguised as a human, but I knew what he was the instant he arrived
authorofdiscord (10:30:59 PM): Have there been others of his kind on Earth that you know of?
Amber Greywind (10:31:23 PM): Well, I've docuented lots of alien abductions and sightings.
authorofdiscord (10:31:48 PM): Hmm. How far back do they go?
authorofdiscord (10:31:55 PM): Historically speaking
Amber Greywind (10:32:32 PM): Oldest follwoing the pattern, about 56 years. but there are older document sthat may be referring to the same thing.
authorofdiscord (10:33:05 PM): Aaah, damn. So you would have no way of knowing for sure if your world had such incidents in the British Isles in 1889 or earlier?
Amber Greywind (10:34:44 PM): Well.. there was a report that was claimed to be a holy miracle.. but the person wreathed in lights. That could be an alien in the lights of his ship!
authorofdiscord (10:35:13 PM): Also an angel, the blighted things do tend to be overly bright.
Amber Greywind (10:36:06 PM): But.. spaceships should have bright lights.
authorofdiscord (10:37:01 PM): I imagine so, but I suppose Commander Ivanova would be the expert here on aliens and starships - to my knowledge, there hasn't been an alien in the British Isles in my lifetime by that definition.
authorofdiscord (10:37:17 PM): (At least, not that I've encountered; I imagine they'd smell very different from a human, even if they were disguised.)
Amber Greywind (10:37:32 PM): There's a starship commander?
authorofdiscord (10:38:04 PM): Yes. Susan Ivanova. She's apparently from much further in the future than anyone else here; the other furthest-future date I'd heard people quote as an origin was 2010.
authorofdiscord (10:38:42 PM): She was from some time ahead of that.
Amber Greywind (10:38:53 PM): So she's a human timetraveller?
authorofdiscord (10:39:38 PM): No, whoever abducted us apparently has abducted people from different time periods. I'm not sure yet, assuming everyone's information is accurate and no-one is fabricating, if they're distoring time somehow or just dealing with different alternate worlds at different times.
authorofdiscord (10:39:47 PM): The last I remember, it was 1889.
authorofdiscord (10:40:03 PM): And Neuro is one of the ones that quoted 2010, to your 2007.
Amber Greywind (10:40:34 PM): Wow, time manipulation.
Amber Greywind (10:40:43 PM): Ithink I read something aboutthat... I wish i had my notes.
authorofdiscord (10:41:49 PM): Your notes may not help much; unless your sources had some information on what's going on here.
Amber Greywind (10:42:11 PM): It would be really cool to research it.
ara dysphoria (10:42:23 PM): You would be one of the first with direct records ^w^
Amber Greywind (10:43:14 PM): well, I'm just that good
authorofdiscord (10:43:53 PM): Ivanova had also mentioned the theory that apparently, some races in her time had put individuals in stasis for centuries at a time... although with the differences in worlds, again assuming no-one's information is fabricated, I'm not sure about if that would have bearing or not
Amber Greywind (10:44:35 PM): So we might now be in the distant future?
authorofdiscord (10:44:48 PM): Of one version of events or another.
Amber Greywind (10:46:05 PM): I would love to decipher their technology
ara dysphoria (10:47:54 PM): I think we all would >w>
ara dysphoria (10:48:10 PM): It would mean we would not be trapped here
Amber Greywind (10:48:29 PM): Well, there's that too
authorofdiscord (10:49:28 PM): I wonder if the house is starting to dry yet...
authorofdiscord (10:49:30 PM): Where are you, Dib?
Amber Greywind (10:50:03 PM): By the vending machines
authorofdiscord (10:52:03 PM): ... Are you in the pub area?
Amber Greywind (10:52:39 PM): I suppose it's close to there
authorofdiscord (10:54:44 PM): .......................................
authorofdiscord (10:54:48 PM): I think I might see you.
Amber Greywind (10:56:24 PM): Really?
authorofdiscord (10:57:28 PM): ...... I'm two tables over, I'll show you where the house is; I should be checking if it's dried out yet anyway
SUMMARY: Dib meets his housemates. Neuro is further of a cage-rattling ass.

ara dysphoria (10:13:11 PM): Hmm. So it is a single individual where you are from, Neul?
trippin vulpines (10:13:44 PM): his is a nickname gotten from the term, but it only truly applied to him
trippin vulpines (10:13:56 PM): he could take every shape but his own.
trippin vulpines (10:14:23 PM): ..... he had better be keeping my army organized in my absence.
ara dysphoria (10:14:41 PM): ..... ..... It is funny. Ours was likely the only one of his kind as well, but also had the issue of seeking/not knowing his own shape.
trippin vulpines (10:15:09 PM): he knew his own shape, it was simply a matter of a seal preventing him from using it
trippin vulpines (10:15:17 PM): narcissistic son of a bitch was tormented by it
Amber Greywind (10:15:31 PM): So that's normal for dopplegngers?
Amber Greywind (10:15:39 PM): Any way to tell them when they're in another form?
trippin vulpines (10:15:44 PM): are you deficient? i said he was the only one of his own kind in my world
ara dysphoria (10:15:47 PM): Aaah. Much different personality then, and arguably ours had "his own shape", he merely did not recognize it as such.
authorofdiscord (10:16:20 PM): It is likely, Dib, that what applies to something in one world may be vastly different in another.
trippin vulpines (10:16:31 PM): he had a default form as well, true, but it's the form of the one who killed him before he was turned into a demon
authorofdiscord (10:16:32 PM): (Although there must be some things in common, if you were swearing about Valkyries earlier.)
trippin vulpines (10:16:33 PM): i
trippin vulpines (10:16:34 PM): ...
trippin vulpines (10:16:41 PM): *trippin vulpines has left the chat.*
Amber Greywind (10:17:14 PM): But in both cases, the doppelganger doens't know his won form, or can't take it. Even in different worlds!
ara dysphoria (10:17:48 PM): I am not sure that it works as a comparison - ours was a special case in our world, and likely a very different sort of creature from hers
trippin vulpines (10:17:49 PM) has left the room.
trippin vulpines (10:18:02 PM) has entered the room.
Amber Greywind (10:18:36 PM): But same powers same problem. I wish I could get a sample on video..
ara dysphoria (10:18:54 PM): It likely would not work here. I have heard that something is interfering with nonhumans.
Amber Greywind (10:19:14 PM): Oh.
authorofdiscord (10:20:11 PM): The newsletter claims it's some sort of suppression effect; I'm suspicious of anything they have to say, honestly, although something is definitely very off.
Amber Greywind (10:22:00 PM): So an effect that supresses all powers, including natural abilities down to human levels?
Amber Greywind (10:22:07 PM): Wow!
authorofdiscord (10:22:39 PM): .... It's a bloody pain, to be honest.
Amber Greywind (10:22:55 PM): Really? What powers did you have before?
authorofdiscord (10:23:09 PM): Enough to take care of my duties.
authorofdiscord (10:23:41 PM): How old are you, Dib?
Amber Greywind (10:23:42 PM): What duties?
Amber Greywind (10:23:45 PM): 11
authorofdiscord (10:24:04 PM): I was the butler to the Earl Phantomhive - I took care of the household and supported his investigations.
authorofdiscord (10:24:22 PM): Out of curiousity, where are you from and what year was it last you remember?
Amber Greywind (10:25:19 PM): Midland USA, 2007
authorofdiscord (10:25:48 PM): Hm. Well, that remains frustrating.
authorofdiscord (10:26:16 PM): It is a version of earth, at least, then?
Amber Greywind (10:26:30 PM): Yes, it's earth.
authorofdiscord (10:27:12 PM): Have you ever investigated or dealt with demons or Reapers?
Amber Greywind (10:28:00 PM): I did investigate a demon... But mostly I was trying to stop Zim
authorofdiscord (10:28:30 PM): (Ah. I'll have to ask you details sometime, I'm attempting to place if I'm even from the same version of Earth as some of the others here.) ....Zim?
trippin vulpines (10:28:38 PM): I HAVE GUMMY WORMS AND DMOUNTAIN DEWEHLISUDFG
trippin vulpines (10:28:44 PM): (( ... wrong chat )
Amber Greywind (10:28:52 PM): (lol)
trippin vulpines (10:29:08 PM): (( i-i'm sorry i have three different chats in a row on my tabs ))
Amber Greywind (10:29:11 PM): Zim, he's an alien tryong to kill all humans so his armada can conquer the Earth
Amber Greywind (10:29:20 PM): (me too actually :P)
authorofdiscord (10:29:57 PM): How long has he been on Earth?
Amber Greywind (10:30:07 PM): About a year now
Amber Greywind (10:30:26 PM): He's disguised as a human, but I knew what he was the instant he arrived
authorofdiscord (10:30:59 PM): Have there been others of his kind on Earth that you know of?
Amber Greywind (10:31:23 PM): Well, I've docuented lots of alien abductions and sightings.
authorofdiscord (10:31:48 PM): Hmm. How far back do they go?
authorofdiscord (10:31:55 PM): Historically speaking
Amber Greywind (10:32:32 PM): Oldest follwoing the pattern, about 56 years. but there are older document sthat may be referring to the same thing.
authorofdiscord (10:33:05 PM): Aaah, damn. So you would have no way of knowing for sure if your world had such incidents in the British Isles in 1889 or earlier?
Amber Greywind (10:34:44 PM): Well.. there was a report that was claimed to be a holy miracle.. but the person wreathed in lights. That could be an alien in the lights of his ship!
authorofdiscord (10:35:13 PM): Also an angel, the blighted things do tend to be overly bright.
Amber Greywind (10:36:06 PM): But.. spaceships should have bright lights.
authorofdiscord (10:37:01 PM): I imagine so, but I suppose Commander Ivanova would be the expert here on aliens and starships - to my knowledge, there hasn't been an alien in the British Isles in my lifetime by that definition.
authorofdiscord (10:37:17 PM): (At least, not that I've encountered; I imagine they'd smell very different from a human, even if they were disguised.)
Amber Greywind (10:37:32 PM): There's a starship commander?
authorofdiscord (10:38:04 PM): Yes. Susan Ivanova. She's apparently from much further in the future than anyone else here; the other furthest-future date I'd heard people quote as an origin was 2010.
authorofdiscord (10:38:42 PM): She was from some time ahead of that.
Amber Greywind (10:38:53 PM): So she's a human timetraveller?
authorofdiscord (10:39:38 PM): No, whoever abducted us apparently has abducted people from different time periods. I'm not sure yet, assuming everyone's information is accurate and no-one is fabricating, if they're distoring time somehow or just dealing with different alternate worlds at different times.
authorofdiscord (10:39:47 PM): The last I remember, it was 1889.
authorofdiscord (10:40:03 PM): And Neuro is one of the ones that quoted 2010, to your 2007.
Amber Greywind (10:40:34 PM): Wow, time manipulation.
Amber Greywind (10:40:43 PM): Ithink I read something aboutthat... I wish i had my notes.
authorofdiscord (10:41:49 PM): Your notes may not help much; unless your sources had some information on what's going on here.
Amber Greywind (10:42:11 PM): It would be really cool to research it.
ara dysphoria (10:42:23 PM): You would be one of the first with direct records ^w^
Amber Greywind (10:43:14 PM): well, I'm just that good
authorofdiscord (10:43:53 PM): Ivanova had also mentioned the theory that apparently, some races in her time had put individuals in stasis for centuries at a time... although with the differences in worlds, again assuming no-one's information is fabricated, I'm not sure about if that would have bearing or not
Amber Greywind (10:44:35 PM): So we might now be in the distant future?
authorofdiscord (10:44:48 PM): Of one version of events or another.
Amber Greywind (10:46:05 PM): I would love to decipher their technology
ara dysphoria (10:47:54 PM): I think we all would >w>
ara dysphoria (10:48:10 PM): It would mean we would not be trapped here
Amber Greywind (10:48:29 PM): Well, there's that too
authorofdiscord (10:49:28 PM): I wonder if the house is starting to dry yet...
authorofdiscord (10:49:30 PM): Where are you, Dib?
Amber Greywind (10:50:03 PM): By the vending machines
authorofdiscord (10:52:03 PM): ... Are you in the pub area?
Amber Greywind (10:52:39 PM): I suppose it's close to there
authorofdiscord (10:54:44 PM): .......................................
authorofdiscord (10:54:48 PM): I think I might see you.
Amber Greywind (10:56:24 PM): Really?
authorofdiscord (10:57:28 PM): ...... I'm two tables over, I'll show you where the house is; I should be checking if it's dried out yet anyway
