 		[CONTACT] AIM conversation: Lenny's mom
I can't post the transcript yet.
But if you're online! IM me! I'll try and get you in contact!

RascalRWR716

EDIT:

You can just IM her, if you please, she's using Lenny's sn. I'd feel more comfortable if I asked her to get in contact with one of you, but do as you wish. I'M certainly not running this ARG

RascalRwr716: hiya,Lenn
RascalRwr716: how are you doing?
paxwell777: This is Lenn's mother. He left on the instant messenger.
RascalRwr716: Oh, I'm sorry, then
RascalRwr716: could you tell him Sarah says hello?
paxwell777: It's alright.
paxwell777: Of course, dear.
paxwell777: How do you know Lenny?
RascalRwr716: Just a friend of a friend. How is he doing?
paxwell777: He's alright, I suppose. Acting funny, however.
RascalRwr716: Oh? how so?
paxwell777: He claims he has been receiving unusual phonecalls.
paxwell777: I'm worried about him.
RascalRwr716: Heh, I have too, I wouldn't worry about it. I think there's been some phone spammer in the area
RascalRwr716: I'm sure I saw an article about it or something
paxwell777: Perhaps.
RascalRwr716: Have you heard any of these phone calls?
paxwell777: Yes, he played one back for me.
RascalRwr716: what was it like, particularly?
paxwell777: To be perfectly honest, the girl on the phone sounded insane.
RascalRwr716: Thats odd. What did she say?
RascalRwr716: I mean, I don't mean to impose
RascalRwr716: Its just intriguing
paxwell777: She said that she needed help, and then started muttering something about survival, and then hung up.
RascalRwr716: something like "survive, evade, resist, escape?"
paxwell777: Yes! Have you heard it?
RascalRwr716: Thats what the lady on *my* prank phone call sounded like
RascalRwr716: I'm very familiar with that phrase
paxwell777: Can I tell you something?
paxwell777: So am I.
RascalRwr716: How so?
paxwell777: This isn't the first time this has happened to Lenn.
RascalRwr716: you mean the prank caller has called before??
paxwell777: Yes. When he was very young.
RascalRwr716: If you're comfortable doing so, you may tell me about it
paxwell777: I was suffering through a depression at the time, and told myself Lenn was making it up
paxwell777: If I had just said something Lenny wouldn't have ended up...
paxwell777: His father didn't believe him.
RascalRwr716: It's ok, Mrs. James
paxwell777: In his defense I said it was due to an over-active imagination
RascalRwr716: I've talked with him a bit about this
RascalRwr716: But didn't you hear the calls?
paxwell777: The day his father took him to the center, I received a call that matched the one he told both of us he had been receiving.
RascalRwr716: Wow.
paxwell777: I'm a terrible mother. I should have..
RascalRwr716: No. Don't tell yourself that.
RascalRwr716: I know Lenny loves you
paxwell777: After the therapy he wasn't ever quite the same again.
RascalRwr716: If I may ask. When did the calls stop?
paxwell777: It was the a recommendation from the clinic that we both 'play along' by getting him away from the source of the problem. We ended up moving a few months later.
RascalRwr716: Why do you think they're starting again?
paxwell777: I don't know. The voice sounds exactly as she did all those years ago.
paxwell777: It's very unnerving.
RascalRwr716: Can you think of anything else unusual?
RascalRwr716: Anything that happened then thats happening now
RascalRwr716: besides the calls?
paxwell777: No. Only this time Lenn has become very detached.
RascalRwr716: Detatched?
paxwell777: Yes.
RascalRwr716: How so?
RascalRwr716: If I may ask, do you know anyone named Jan, or Jen?
paxwell777: He locks himself up in his room, paranoid that someone is watching him...the only time he ever leaves the house is to go to school and immediately comes back. He has also cut himself off from his friends. I've tried to talk to him, but he says nothing is wrong.
paxwell777: No, I'm afraid the names don't ring a bell.
RascalRwr716: Well. He's still talking to some of his friends Smile
RascalRwr716: thats ok, don't worry about it
RascalRwr716: I'm sorry. I suppose I've been asking some rather personal questions
paxwell777: It's alright. To be honest I'm desperate to know what's going on with him, so talking about this is easy.
RascalRwr716: I'm one of a larger group of friends. We're working to try and sort all this out
paxwell777: Lenny's lucky to have friends like you.
RascalRwr716: Any information you feel you can give can help
paxwell777: Same goes for you, dear.
RascalRwr716: Heh, certainly. We don't know what this is, but we've all heard it
RascalRwr716: I think we're going to make contact
RascalRwr716: She says she's looking for her twin...
paxwell777: I see.
paxwell777: For the sake of my boy, I hope whatever is going on ends soon.
RascalRwr716: Me, too, Mrs. James. Me too
RascalRwr716: we're working on it
paxwell777: You're a sweet...boy or girl.
paxwell777: : )
RascalRwr716: Sarah, Mrs. James
RascalRwr716: : )
paxwell777: Sarah. That's a beautiful name.
RascalRwr716: thank you!
paxwell777: I always wanted a girl.
paxwell777: I would've named her Sarah.
RascalRwr716: Aw, you're making me blush
RascalRwr716: Is Lenn an only child?
paxwell777: Yes.
RascalRwr716: Um, just randomly, the names Synagog1 or Ecclesiastes wouldn't mean anything to you, would it?
paxwell777: Other than one being a Jewish holy place and the other a book in The Bible, no.
RascalRwr716: Ah, thank you
RascalRwr716: Just random checks on some things we think might be related:
RascalRwr716: "survive evade resist escape" (we covered that)
RascalRwr716: Melissa
RascalRwr716: Yasmin
RascalRwr716: The Operator
RascalRwr716: Missing twin, Gemini
RascalRwr716: just running random things by, I'm sorry
RascalRwr716: Its confusing
paxwell777: You're a very peculiar girl, but I trust you know what you're talking about.
RascalRwr716: haha, you'd be surprised how often I get that
RascalRwr716: Can you remember anything else about the phone conversations you've heard?
paxwell777: No, I'm afraid not, dear.
RascalRwr716: well, thats fine, don't worry about it
RascalRwr716: how are you feeling through all this?
paxwell777: After speaking with you, it's very clear I need to tell my son the truth, and beg for his forgiveness.
RascalRwr716: How do you mean... the truth?
paxwell777: The fact I found out about the phonecalls and didn't do anything about them.
RascalRwr716: Ah, yes, I suppose so
paxwell777: My son was put away because of me.
paxwell777: He was only eleven.
RascalRwr716: Where exactly was this? What was the name of the center?
RascalRwr716: If I may ask
RascalRwr716: and he was not put away because of you!
RascalRwr716: people do strange things in emotional times
paxwell777: Oh dear, that was a hazy time for me. But if you think it's beneficial, I will get back to you on that.
RascalRwr716: Thank you. I think it might help, but I can't be sure
RascalRwr716: Besides the phone calls, did he ever show any signs of a neurosis?
paxwell777: No, never.
paxwell777: He was a happy child..perfect.
RascalRwr716: What kind of therapy was he given? And did the phones ever ring at your place, or the ward, while he was there?
paxwell777: I don't think I can bare to think about that right now, dear.
RascalRwr716: Thats alright. it was inconsiderate of me to ask
RascalRwr716: I appologise
paxwell777: It's alright. I know you wouldn't ask if you weren't concerned. You don't seem like the type to stir trouble.
RascalRwr716: haha, no ma'am
paxwell777: Thank you for being here for my son during this difficult time.
RascalRwr716: Certainly, ma'am
RascalRwr716: There's a lot of us trying to help him. Rest assured, he's being guarded over.
paxwell777: He just pulled into the driveway.
RascalRwr716: ok
paxwell777: Do you want to speak to him?
RascalRwr716: Tell him, again, I say hi
RascalRwr716: yes, please
RascalRwr716: that would be lovely
paxwell777: Alright dear.
RascalRwr716: keep in touch, ok?
paxwell777: It has been a pleasure speaking.
paxwell777: I will try.
RascalRwr716: the pleasure was mine
RascalRwr716: (if you need to contact me:-)
RascalRwr716: SarahKiddoSPLAThotmail.com
paxwell777: I've written it down.
paxwell777: Take care, dear.
RascalRwr716: thank you, you too!


Friggin... now I'm talking to him again. Really, guys, step in. I'll find a way for you to talk to him, please IM me... I don't want to be the sole link of communication.

 		Re: AIM conversation: Lenny's mom
Jesus, Lenny's MOM! A teenager worst nightmare, mommy jumping into your Messenger and filtering your net-friends! Very Happy

Really, this is way cool. So realistic and yet so unpredictable.



... or maybe Lenny is a whacko paranoid tennager, this is not an ARG and we all are pushing him closer and closer to a violent and possibly suicidal psychotic episode.
Shocked

 		So, do you think mom character is trying to see what Lenn's getting via email or IM? See what we know already, maybe hand out a little dis-information??
