 		[AIN] Sam re: Roman, Peter, Diana - Sep 4th
I've been talking to Sam about the pages for a while. In her last meesage she told me she would give the pages to Iris, and I reply her something like 'it would be funny that Iris had visions like Phoebe, from 'Charmed', has'

Her reply:
Quote:
I love Charmed! If Iris could do that Phoebe vision thing or freeze people like Piper, I'd admit that I would have to be impressed. lol

I showed Iris the pages and she looked around Roman's website. She still thinks Roman picked Dale and I for a specific reason. I think I agree. I wonder what this Roman guy is trying to tell us?

Sam


And then, a couple of hours later, she sent me another message:
Quote:
Pilar,

I think I'm beginning to understand. Whoever this Roman guy is... he's hiding. Why? Is he afraid of someone? Something? What does this all have to do with me? And Dale? Does this have anything to do with all of this Marzent craziness? The caves...the machines...

This is all Wes's area of expertise. Stories of the Pine Barrens, mysterious storytellers and secret codes. I can't stop wishing that he were here to help me figure all of this out. I can't stop thinking about him.

Sam


She can't stop whising????? Hummmm Rolling Eyes

 		I'm going to tack my two AIN messages from Sam here.

I'd been concerned about not hearing from Peter, but we have and so has Sam. I also commented to her about Diana:

Quote:
Peter finally emailed me back. What a dork. He got all wrapped up with school and had some sort of internet problem. He was quite flattered that I was worried and checked in on him. I bet the poor kid wishes he never got involved with all this Aglaura drama. He can't even go to class without all of us worrying about him! lol

The Diana thing doesn't surprise me. It just seems more and more that Marzent doesn't belong here... they're looking more and more like a big corporate monster hovering over tiny Aglaura. Ever since the divorce, Diana's been a bit like that... like she's bigger and better than the rest of us. So it really doesn't surprise me that they make such a great match.

Sam


This is some of the conversation we've been having about Roman:

Quote:
Sandra,

I see now! Or at least I'm beginning to.

The storm here made it almost impossible to use the internet with the power going off and on all night. So I printed out all of the content on the Barren Soul site so I could still look at it if we lost power for good. I'm determined to find out who this Roman guy is and why he sent me a page of his book.

When I was looking at a few of the book pages by the candle, I saw how everyone found the iremember.html page! This Roman guy hid messages in his pages. I don't understand what's going on Sandra... Why did Roman contact me? And why can't I stop thinking about Wes when I look at this stuff? Why is Roman hiding behind these puzzles? What is he afraid of?

Sam


Well, I know why she can't stop thinking about Wes - I'm becoming more and more convinced that WotW/Roman is Wes. Not sure if I'll say that to her or not.

I can't help but wonder if Wes met The Wish at the end of CTW1 and that what Roman means about "how come no one else remembers." And, it would explain why Wes used Peter as a go-between.

I already told her that and she cannot hear anything about it: 'Wes is dead, I saw that' and such

 		Thanks, Shelina, now I don't have to figure out if I should talk to her about it. I did suggest it might be his son, though. I also agreed with her about it being strange that Roman had to send the pages through Peter and said she should think about why this was. Peter would have no reason to lie but Roman had a reason not to be seen by her and Dale.

Hehehe I suggested Todd as another posibility, too Smile
Here is Sam's reply:

Quote:
Todd is definitely on my suspect list. He seems to be a *logical* choice, doesn't he? I just don't know why he would go through the trouble of using Peter to contact us. Why wouldn't he just mail the pages to Dale and I? Why would he hide behind Peter?

Sam


I suggested maybe there is someone after him, like Keith told us about being prosecuted when he was running away

 		We are definitely on the same wavelength when it comes to this issue with Sam. I also compared the person to Keith and his need for anonymity. Smile

Her reply:
Quote:
Dale said he's seen men watching his house from a car out on the street. I'm very worried, Pilar. First Keith sees these men kill Brad in the woods. Then they start to chase him. Now Dale and possibly whoever is behind the Barren Soul site are in trouble? Are they really just Marzent thugs or something more wicked? Are they the ones who started to Aglaura fires? What else have they done?

Sam

 		New message from Sam:

Quote:
I hope we find out soon. I'm starting to get a bit paranoid myself. I thought someone was following me home from work today and it turned out to be Max Clanton dropping off my iPod (which I thought I had lost). I almost decked the poor kid!

Sam


I've just suggested her to talk to Dawn Prufock Smile

 		Some messages from Sam:

Quote:
Oh, no more phantom persons please! Wink This Roman thing is driving me crazy, Sandra. When's this guy going to upload some more pages of his book?

Sam


The "phantom" remark was in reply to saying that Roman was a phantom character who used Peter as a go-between.

Quote:
Sandra,

I've seen the Keith stuff. I can't believe this is all happening. Who are these guys and what do that want with Sarah's masks?

As for Wes, writing about him might be a good idea, actually. I don't know. It's just so hard to even think about what happened, ya know? Sometimes I can't stand to think about the night he died. I've talked to Iris about it... a little bit. She really tries her best, but she gets all metaphysical and well... that doesn't really help me much.

Sam


I told her I thought the masks were "wards" and that she might want to ask Iris about them since she could explain them better than I could.

I had suggested that she write out her feelings about Wes and that might help her release whatever is upsetting her. I said to just write stream of consciousness and turn off her internal censor. Then toss it away and not go back and read it.

I offered to listen to what she had to say about the night Wes died. I think it's clear, though I didn't say this to her, that she's shielding herself from really remembering. Maybe she will open up to someone more anonymous than Iris.

 		Here's a couple of messages I got from Sam yesterday.

Quote:
enaxor,

Sorry I didn't get back to you about Peter. I thought I had let everyone know. I guess my brain hasn't been at full capacity lately. This Roman guy has really gotten to me. In a lot of ways he does remind me of Wes... his interest in the Barrens, his mysterious puzzles... and even the way he writes on the website. Or maybe I'm just filling in the blanks with things I'm already familiar with. I've been thinking about Wes a lot lately... probably because of all the weird happenings here in Aglaura.

I know a good number of people think that this guy is really somehow Wes. I wish that were possible. I wish that Wes had just taken off for a lengthy vacation or skipped town. I saw what happened the night he died. If this Roman guy ended up being Wes, I'd have to start believing in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny again. That sort of magic just doesn't happen in real life. Does it?

Sam


and

Quote:
Oh, I forgot...

Yes, I did here about the Klepsydra chat. It seems that JD is doing much better? I heard about that Turing Principle bot too. Have you been contacted before by him (her? it?). What sorts of things has it said?

Sam


in response to

Quote:
Thanks for checking on Peter, although I never heard from you that he was no longer MIA, you did tell a couple of my friends that you heard from him. I was relieved to know he was ok.

I'm sure you heard about the chat at Klepsydra the other night. Pretty weird, huh?

Btw, have you heard anymore from Roman Bern? It's strange how familiar he seems to be with the Pine Barrens, almost reminds me of how Dale and Iris describe Wes. Well gotta run. Talk to ya soon.

 		Atleast she's started considering that Roman night be Wes, even if it is totally out of her "comfort zone."

Maybe it's time for Iris to have another talk with her.
