Well... I think it's something we've all sort of assumed for a while even though we had no proof, but Bricker did confirm it while we were in Portland. I think Wulf had shown him an email he'd gotten from Rage that said something along the lines of him "being responsible for creating her", and he and I both took it in two ways: being responsible for creating the Oracle and creating Jenny.

That said! Bricker was surprised we came to that conclusion, though.

Anyhoo! Another thing we discussed during that lunch was whether or not Rage was supernatural with his talk of 'collecting souls' and all that (or if he was just batshit crazy). But if you go the supernatural route, the reason Jenny is still alive is that, though he killed her, he never 'gathered her soul', which left her stuck here but disconnected with humanity and the real world.
If you go the batshit crazy route, I don't really know how to explain Jenny's death-not-a-death then. Other than that she managed to survive a bullet to the brain and gained mysterious powers somehow out of it.

Rats! Sorry for the double post but nearly every site has a CIA banner on it.

http://www.1407oakhurst.info/ - The CIA banner is the whole page and it's been "locked" according to the title.

All 6 of the blogs just have the banner as the header.

Also PK's blog title has been changed to "UNAVAILABLE"

...Wow. That was....intense. Either I missed something or it didn't get said because I had no idea that Jenny really was Rage's daughter.

So, am I correct in saying that, Arlen just beat the crap out of Jenny in that motel, rather than kill her?

I thought for a second and then remembered that--if he still has it on him--I have the phone number he was texting me with back during Portland. Soooo I sent him a text. Maybe he'll get to that faster than he'll get to an internet connection if he really is in trouble.

Sadly, my Twitter is the only connection I have.

So I gotta wait on you guys to make contact elsewhere.

Well shit. Well I tweeted Rage in pseudo-code to see what's happening:

Rage just tweeted.

Off to visit an old friend - unfortunately. Perhaps I'll let the folded brood choose her ultimate fate. Any good ideas to share the love?

@ArlenRage Let's get some answers out of her first.

Speaking of email, Bricker apparently sent a reply back to Wulf that he CC'ed to me. Attached? The beginning of the end.

...Creepy, no? Arlen and Jenny do eventually meet I see.

Hmm. I keep going over the fact that Holly is a traitor and I thought of something.

What if being a "traitor", doesn't actually mean a traitor to the group? What if she's a traitor to the story, as in she wants to keep Bricker from finishing the story, rather than stopping Port/Rage's chance to get to the Brightman?

True, it is one of the Watcher addresses, but not specifically Hatch's. Honestly, I was not sure if that was someone I was going to trust. I purposely did not speak of anything related to Holly there; I sent it all in the email to Hatch's email address.

Make sure you are safe. Let you know that there are a lot of us rooting for you. And watching. Always watching.

D! D! I pick D!
Actually, I've already done it. :B Though I haven't emailed Hatch quite yet. Was about to, when I got a reply from Rage. I proposed that he take the place of the writer on the 31st... at least I have his attention now.

Well that's obvious. But the Brightman is currently under the control of the CIA, so why would a completely different administration infiltrate the Watchers?

Uggh. So what's the current plan now that we know Holly is a traitor?

Email Hatch to tell him who's the Traitor?
Email Rage to go meet her?
Email Bricker to stay away?
All of the above?
