[18:47] * BelleReve has joined #dreams
[18:47] <Corla> Hi Alyssa
[18:47] <Corla> I talked to Josh!
[18:47] <BelleReve> omigod! no way!
[18:47] <BelleReve> is he here?
[18:47] <InSoMnIaC|counting> hey alyssa
[18:47] <BelleReve> JOSH!!
[18:47] <tomtom> Hi, Alyssa!
[18:47] <Corla> No, he talked to me through Cassandra
[18:48] <Corla> But he's safe for now.
[18:48] <Corla> He wanted me to tell you, no matter what, he won't forget you.
[18:48] <Midnight|away> Belle Smile

[18:48] <BelleReve> oooh
[18:48] <BelleReve> that's good
[18:48] <Corla> There isn't a completely safe way to get in contact with us though
[18:48] <BelleReve> did he say where he is?
[18:48] <Corla> No, it wouldn't be safe for him to tell us that
[18:49] <BelleReve> =(
[18:49] <BelleReve> I understand, I guess
[18:49] <BelleReve> but you said he's okay?
[18:49] <BelleReve> is he still with that cult?
[18:49] <Corla> Yes
[18:50] <BelleReve> grr...they're the reason he's wrapped up in this
[18:51] <Corla> No, if he hadn't joined them, the Order and the SIC would have gotten him.
[18:51] * BelleReve sighs
[18:51] <BelleReve> you're right, i know
[18:52] <BelleReve> still...it's so frustraing
[18:53] <InSoMnIaC|counting> alyssa
[18:53] <InSoMnIaC|counting> we need to find out about the vagrants
[18:53] <Corla> Josh said that the vagrants have something to do with this...
[18:53] <BelleReve> how did he know?
[18:53] <Corla> And if we find out more about them, we can help him
[18:53] <Corla> Well, it's on the Apple Harbor site
[18:53] * Kender has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 181 seconds)
[18:53] <BelleReve> yeah, I guess
[18:54] <BelleReve> what else is there to tell? It was the front page story on the paper
[18:54] <BelleReve> umm....no witnesses
[18:54] * Kender has joined #dreams
[18:54] <InSoMnIaC|counting> i don't know
[18:54] <Midnight|away> is the police investigating the murder? are there any suspects?
[18:54] <BelleReve> no trace of any of them leaving, or passing through any other towns in the area
[18:54] <Corla> I forgot to tell him about the old man
[18:55] <BelleReve> the police think it might have been some kind of initiation ritual or something
[18:56] <Kender> Hey Alyssa
[18:56] <BelleReve> hey Kender =)
[18:56] <Corla> Hi Kender
[18:56] <Midnight|away> there were rumors about the vagrants wanting to do some kind of ritual, right?
[18:56] <Midnight|away> Do you know any more details of the rumors?
[18:57] <tomtom> Now, as naive as this might sound, does that mean the vagrants are still around, just kind of out of sight?
[18:57] <BelleReve> there were rumors, but there were rumors they were just beach bums
[18:57] <BelleReve> there were rumors they were abducted by aliens
[18:57] <Kender> did you find out what it was that's been nagging you BelleReve?
[18:57] <BelleReve> nagging me?
[18:57] <BelleReve> besides my mom?
[18:57] <BelleReve> Wink

[18:57] <Kender> yeah, you said you had the feeling you were forgetting something
[18:58] <BelleReve> Tomtom -- that's what everyone's afraid of. There wasn't a single unlocked door or open window in Apple Harbor last night
[18:58] <BelleReve> Kender -- forgetting something? Gosh! What was I talking about?
[18:58] <InSoMnIaC|counting> are there any caves round appleharbor alyssa?
[19:00] <BelleReve> Maybe around the Quarry, but that's on the other side of town from Shoreline. It's just a few tree stands, but nothing to hide in
[19:01] * InSoMnIaC|counting shows his quirky side
[19:01] <InSoMnIaC|counting> maybe they've transcended
[19:01] <Midnight|away> maybe they've got a boat
[19:01] <BelleReve> maybe they turned into fish and swam away
[19:02] <tomtom> Wouldn't that be awesome, though?
[19:02] <BelleReve> a boat...
[19:02] <Corla> Do you remember anything else about what they were saying?
[19:02] <tomtom> Wink

[19:02] <BelleReve> Kender! I Just remembered!
[19:02] <Kender> ooh!!
[19:03] <BelleReve> oh my god...it couldn't be
[19:03] <Corla> What?
[19:03] <BelleReve> maybe I'm wrong
[19:03] * InSoMnIaC|counting is now known as InSoMnIaC
[19:03] <BelleReve> where they found the old man
[19:03] <BelleReve> how could they know?
[19:03] <Corla> What?
[19:03] <Midnight|away> who?
[19:03] <Kender> please tell us miss aster
[19:04] <BelleReve> I'm pretty sure it's almost exactly where they found Josh, when he was sick =(
[19:04] <Corla> ...
[19:04] <BelleReve> I remember driving by there every day, when he wouldn't wake up
[19:05] <BelleReve> that's why it felt so familiar
[19:05] <Corla> But...
[19:05] <tomtom> Is there anything significant in that area compared to anywhere else in town?
[19:05] <Corla> That's where they found Josh in a coma
[19:06] <BelleReve> Significant? It was a popular hangout for kids after dark who wanted...you know...privacy
[19:06] <tomtom> But, I mean, something other than the people that were there.
[19:06] <tomtom> ^^Meant to Corla.
[19:06] <BelleReve> historical significance? none that can think of
[19:06] * RungeKutta has joined #dreams
[19:06] * ChanServ sets mode: +o RungeKutta
[19:06] <Corla> Hi Runge
[19:06] <tomtom> Hello, Runge!
[19:06] <RungeKutta> hey corla
[19:06] <RungeKutta> hi tomtom
[19:06] <BelleReve> it's near the water but not sand yet
[19:07] <BelleReve> the tide doesn't get up that high
[19:07] <BelleReve> but...that kind of connection just doesn't make any sense
[19:08] <Corla> Maybe it's a sort of psychic hotspot...
[19:08] <Midnight|away> hmm.. weird...
[19:08] <Midnight|away> Not sand? So I guess nothings buried there
[19:09] <BelleReve> buried? like treasure?
[19:10] <tomtom> Anything could be buried.
[19:11] <BelleReve> I guess I could go out there with a metal detector or something
[19:12] <BelleReve> but I don't know what I'm looking for =/
[19:12] <Midnight|away> that might be a bit drastic
[19:12] <Corla> Anyway, do you remember anything else about what they were saying?
[19:13] <BelleReve> the local paper, as usual, reported more on people's reactions then the details of the story
[19:14] <BelleReve> they were curious if it was some occult holiday or something
[19:15] <BelleReve> did anything special happen wednesday night? a comet? a planetary alignment?
[19:15] <Corla> I don't know... *googles*
[19:15] <BelleReve> it creeps you out, to think there are such sick people in the world
[19:16] <Midnight|away> hmm.. maybe. My boyfriend is a big occult "nut" I'll ask him Wink

[19:16] <BelleReve> one could be standing right next to you, and you'd never know it
[19:16] <tomtom> Wait...What??!
[19:16] <BelleReve> the crazies are easier to deal with -- they're at least up front about it
[19:16] * tomtom looks around.
[19:16] * tomtom is now paranoid.
[19:16] * BelleReve hands Tomtom the club card
[19:17] <BelleReve> welcome, brother tomtom!
[19:17] <tomtom> Thanks! ^.^
[19:17] <BelleReve> We have meetings every tuesday -- i think. I've never gone to one.
[19:18] <BelleReve> oh god! dinner's burning!
[19:18] <tomtom> Ah!
[19:21] <BelleReve> ooh, it's not ruined, whew
[19:23] <Midnight|away> what are you making?
[19:24] <tomtom> Man...I don't even remember Wednesday night.
[19:24] * tomtom has horrible memory.
[19:24] * InSoMnIaC too
[19:24] <InSoMnIaC> like a sieve
[19:25] <BelleReve> it's my own recipe
[19:25] <tomtom> Does include chicken or rice or beef?
[19:25] <BelleReve> Chicken wrapped in Bacon
[19:25] <tomtom> Some of my favorite foods right there.
[19:25] * tomtom drools.
[19:25] <BelleReve> first you grill the chicken
[19:26] <BelleReve> then you wrap it in a slice of bacon, then put it in the broiler
[19:26] <InSoMnIaC> hmm chicken wrapped in bacon, with a herb and chive cream chees inside
[19:26] <InSoMnIaC> my speciality
[19:26] <Midnight|away> there is going to be a solar eclipse in april.. didn't see anything weird for this month tho *continues looking*
[19:26] <BelleReve> cream cheese? eeew
[19:26] <BelleReve> =p
[19:26] <BelleReve> sounds good, really
[19:26] <InSoMnIaC> hmm lush
[19:26] <tomtom> Sounds like a heart attack on a plate, but oh so good.
[19:26] <BelleReve> Solar Eclipse? hrm
[19:27] <BelleReve> oh, tell me about it. I can only have one piece before I start to feel guilty
[19:27] <Midnight|away> Mark your calendar. On April 8th, the Moon will glide in front of the Sun producing a total solar eclipse over the Pacific Ocean and a partial eclipse elsewhere
[19:27] <Midnight|away> Smile

[19:27] <InSoMnIaC> i think it was a new moon on the 10th
[19:27] <BelleReve> I'm on the atlantic =(
[19:27] <tomtom> I'm...I have no idea.
[19:28] <BelleReve> =(
[19:29] <tomtom> Pacific, I would assume.
[19:29] <BelleReve> yeah, I'm not in the mood for eating now anyway
[19:29] <InSoMnIaC> you have to eat alyssa
[19:29] <InSoMnIaC> as my mom always says
[19:29] <InSoMnIaC> not that she calls me alyssa or anything?
[19:29] <InSoMnIaC> Smile

[19:29] <tomtom> Hahaha...
[19:29] <Midnight|away> yeah, you wouldn't want us to get worried about you. We'll be worse than any mom Razz

[19:30] <BelleReve> Whats wrong with being called Alyssa? It's a perfectly fine name for a beautiful woman!
[19:30] * InSoMnIaC just spilled lager all over his desk
[19:30] <BelleReve> =p
[19:30] * InSoMnIaC is not a beautiful woman
[19:30] * tomtom pats Insom's head.
[19:30] <tomtom> It's okay.
[19:30] <tomtom> I'm not either.
[19:30] <BelleReve> My mom would hate it when people would call me by nicknames
[19:30] <BelleReve> that's what *she* would say
[19:30] <tomtom> Like...Uh....Lyssie?
[19:31] <InSoMnIaC> or al
[19:31] <BelleReve> Ally, Lissa, Lis,
[19:31] <tomtom> I like Lyssie.
[19:31] <BelleReve> eek, sounds like a lizard =p
[19:32] * BelleReve is now known as LyssieZard
[19:32] <LyssieZard> hiss!
[19:32] <LyssieZard> or whatever sounds lizards make
[19:32] <LyssieZard> roar?
[19:32] <tomtom> ^.^
[19:32] <LyssieZard> Meow
[19:34] <Midnight|away> All I ever hear lizards do is "scuttle" Wink

[19:35] <tomtom> I like lizards.
[19:36] <LyssieZard> aren't they slimy?
[19:36] <Midnight|away> no, scaly
[19:36] <LyssieZard> still sounds eew grossie
[19:37] <tomtom> The lizards would have these red things that could go up and down on their necks.
[19:37] <tomtom> Man, they kicked so much ass.
[19:38] * Midnight|away has no clue what Tomtom is talking about
[19:38] <tomtom> Lizards...Small...Two or three inches long.
[19:38] <tomtom> Little hangy things on their necks that can go up and down.
[19:38] <tomtom> And..THEY WERE SO AWESOME!
[19:39] <LyssieZard> you had lizards as pets?
[19:39] * LyssieZard hides behind Midnight
[19:39] <tomtom> No...
[19:39] * LyssieZard is now known as BelleReve
[19:39] <tomtom> They weren't pets.
[19:40] <tomtom> But where I used to live, they were almost everywhere.
[19:40] <BelleReve> how scary!
[19:40] <tomtom> And they were in bushes and stuff...They weren't scary!
[19:40] <tomtom> I wanted to hug them!
[19:40] * BelleReve faints
[19:40] * tomtom catches Belle
[19:41] <tomtom> They were cool.
[19:41] <tomtom> I swear.
[19:41] <BelleReve> EEEEK! you have lizard hands!
[19:42] <tomtom> I never actually touched them.
[19:42] <BelleReve> you said u wanted to hug them
[19:42] <tomtom> Wanted to,
[19:45] <BelleReve> are crabs, lizards?
[19:45] <tomtom> I don't think so.
[19:45] <tomtom> >.<
[19:45] <InSoMnIaC> no
[19:45] <BelleReve> then we don't have any lizards around here
[19:45] <BelleReve> whew
[19:46] <BelleReve> I went to the Museum during a school field trip
[19:46] <BelleReve> and they had a dinosaur skeleton
[19:47] <BelleReve> and someone joked that it wasn't scary, because if it ate you, you'd just fall right through!
[19:47] <BelleReve> I didn't like it's teeth, though
[19:47] <tomtom> But it's teeth were as sharp as if...Okay.
[19:48] <tomtom> You beat me to it.,
[19:48] <tomtom> I don't like museums.
[19:48] <tomtom> They always seemed like there was something going on there.
[19:48] <tomtom> Like...Weird spirits or something around, because of the artifacts.
[19:48] <BelleReve> I liked the kinds of museums where you could play with things
[19:48] <tomtom> Ooh!
[19:48] <tomtom> Petting zoos are fun!
[19:48] <BelleReve> art museums make me feel stoopid
[19:49] <BelleReve> I went to a zoo once
[19:49] <BelleReve> they advertised they had a six legged horse
[19:50] <tomtom> That's cruel and unusual.
[19:50] <tomtom> Unless it was natural.
[19:50] <tomtom> That's kind of cool.
[19:50] <BelleReve> when we got there, it turns out it was just a horse with someone riding it
[19:51] <BelleReve> it was an ad for a trick rider -- he would do stunts
[19:51] <BelleReve> like jumping from one horse to another
[19:51] <tomtom> On the horse?
[19:51] <BelleReve> it was pretty cool, but I still felt stupid for falling for it
[19:51] <BelleReve> for the ad
[19:51] <Midnight|away> Pretty clever of them
[19:52] <BelleReve> when I asked one of the workers, they said they advertised six legs, but didn't say all six belonged to the horse =p
[19:52] <Corla> lol
[19:52] * Midnight|away should change her nickname to Midnight-semi-away
[19:53] <Corla> Alyssa, you said you were getting a bunch of joke articles for the newsletter? UFOs and that sort of thing?
[19:53] <Corla> If you saved them, could you forward them to us?
[19:54] <BelleReve> hmm
[19:55] <BelleReve> most of the articles I got were dropped in my mailbox
[19:55] <Corla> There's a small chance that there's something in one of them.
[19:55] <BelleReve> I'll sort through them and see what I can find
[19:55] <Corla> Could you scan them in? Or at least a transcript?
[19:55] <BelleReve> scan?
[19:55] <InSoMnIaC> with a scanner
[19:56] <BelleReve> oh, the scanner =)
[19:56] <BelleReve> I keep forgetting they gave me one of those
[19:56] <BelleReve> I never use it for anything anymore =/
[19:56] <Corla> I hardly ever use mine either
[19:56] <Midnight|away> oh, I use mine a lot to scan drawings Smile

[19:56] <Midnight|away> Scanners are great
[19:57] <BelleReve> wow, I wish I could draw
[19:57] <Corla> I have an artist tablet, so I just draw straight into the computer.
[19:58] * BelleReve is soooooo jealous
[19:58] <Corla> I can't really draw, but I try anyway
[19:58] <Midnight|away> have a tablet too, but I need a new one. It's a bit busted... that's why I havent made any new drawings in a loooong time Sad

[19:58] <InSoMnIaC> hmmm, matchstick men?
[19:58] <BelleReve> I bet you're a great drawer and just trying to make me feel better =p
[19:58] <BelleReve> stickdeath!
[19:59] <BelleReve> ever been to stickdeath.com?
[19:59] <Corla> I really can't... especially people
[20:00] <BelleReve> wow, that site has changed =(
[20:00] * InSoMnIaC slaps alyssa with pop ups
[20:00] <BelleReve> it was much cooler...back in 1998 =(
[20:00] * Corla looks
[20:00] <BelleReve> nono, don't look
[20:00] <InSoMnIaC> nooooo
[20:00] <InSoMnIaC> don't
[20:00] <Corla> ?
[20:00] <InSoMnIaC> pop up city
[20:00] * Corla loves my pop up blocker
[20:02] <tomtom> Hmmm.
[20:03] <BelleReve> there are no more good funny websites
[20:04] <tomtom> Yes there are!
[20:04] <Midnight|away> oh yes, there are plenty Smile

[20:04] <tomtom> Just...Amazingly dirty funny websites.
[20:04] <BelleReve> dirty...funny?
[20:05] * BelleReve hides her innocent eyes
[20:05] <tomtom> Where there is humor, there is usually things to corrupt the mind.
[20:06] <tomtom> Usually.
[20:06] <Midnight|away> I think you browse different sites than me, Tomtom Wink

[20:07] <tomtom> I don't think I do, Midnight. Wink

[20:07] <Midnight|away> I'd give you the links to some really funny websites, but I'm a bit busy. Can't look them up right now Wink

[20:07] <BelleReve> I only go to nice clean websites
[20:07] <Corla> lol
[20:07] <BelleReve> because I'm a good girl =)
[20:08] <BelleReve> umm..
[20:08] <BelleReve> (halo-> 0=)
[20:08] <tomtom> I am too! Just..Not a girl..
[20:09] <InSoMnIaC> well ladies and gentlemen, time for me to go home
[20:09] * BelleReve deletes her link to fark.com
[20:09] <BelleReve> awww, you just got here!
[20:09] <tomtom> Fark is awesome! Fazed is awesomer.
[20:10] * BelleReve ties Insomniac to the radiator
[20:10] <InSoMnIaC> lol
[20:10] * Corla has only been to Fark once
[20:10] <InSoMnIaC> 3am, and i gotta go home
[20:10] <tomtom> Bye Insom!
[20:10] <InSoMnIaC> might get back on when i get there if anyones still on
[20:10] <Corla> Bye Insomniac
[20:10] <BelleReve> bubbye!
[20:10] <InSoMnIaC> nite x
[20:10] <Midnight|away> bye insom!
[20:10] * InSoMnIaC has left #dreams
[20:11] <Corla> Anyway, can you scan them in when you have time?
[20:11] <BelleReve> I have to look for them, but sure, as soon as I find them i'll scan them for you
[20:12] <Corla> Okay Smile

[20:12] <tomtom> I have a question.
[20:12] <tomtom> About the Vagrants.
[20:13] <tomtom> Have they ever come around before? Anytime earlier?
[20:13] <BelleReve> not to my knowledge, Tomx2
[20:15] * RungeKutta has left #dreams
[20:15] <BelleReve> I haven't been here forever, but I don't recall ever hearing of them coming like this
[20:18] <Midnight|away> you said that the old man had a weird accent. Any idea what country he might have been from?
[20:18] <Corla> Can you ask other people in town about what they were saying?
[20:19] <Corla> Actually, did you see any sort of identifying symbol or something?
[20:20] <BelleReve> I really don't know what country he was from...it sounded...harsh
[20:20] <Midnight|away> In Nepal they have a religious holiday in March, probably not related tho Wink

[20:20] <BelleReve> the people I talk to...which isn't too many here anymore...were the ones that told me about his eye
[20:20] <BelleReve> that wasn't in the paper
[20:20] <BelleReve> I don't know why though
[20:22] <Midnight|away> that just reminds me of the eye on the sic page
[20:23] <tomtom> Ooh, the eye!
[20:23] <Corla> Ugh, the eye
[20:23] <BelleReve> eeep the eye!
[20:24] <Corla> Hey... how was he hanged on the beach?
[20:24] <Corla> Was he by a tree or was he moved after they hanged him?
[20:25] <BelleReve> the officer I spoke to yesterday didn't say much, but he did say they found him hung
[20:25] <BelleReve> so I don't think they moved him
[20:26] <Corla> So, they found him hanging from a tree by the beach...
[20:26] <BelleReve> yes
[20:26] <Corla> Could you go out there and see if there are any marks on the tree? (Sorry to be asking so much of you)
[20:27] <tomtom> Or on the ground?
[20:27] <Corla> If it was on the ground, it's probably gone by now, unless it was buried
[20:28] <tomtom> Ooh! Although like whoever said it, it might be drastic, but the metal detector would work.
[20:28] <Corla> People have probably trampled all over that area by now, and there's the wind factor too
[20:28] <tomtom> Or put those together, In the tree, maybe?
[20:28] <tomtom> On the tree, are there any knots, or holes?
[20:28] <tomtom> Do you know?
[20:29] <Midnight|away> If something has been buried, there are probably signs of it, disturbed earth and all
[20:30] <BelleReve> I'm sorry
[20:30] <BelleReve> yes, I'll go out tomorrow and look
[20:30] <tomtom> That's why it would make sense to be in the tree?
[20:30] <Midnight|away> be careful tho, dont want you to get in trouble on our account
[20:30] <BelleReve> I was reading the article again...nothing but comments from concerned citizens
[20:31] <BelleReve> you would think they'd publish something *about* the event
[20:31] <BelleReve> it's like one of those...what do you call them?
