[Update] The Scarlett Kite - 20 Oct 2006 - Lockdown

Lockdown
Category: me, 02:28 PM

I'm writing this from Violet's apartment on Moebius. I've been staying here the past few days. Well, since we got back from Viendenbourg really. I haven't even been out of the apartment today - I've just been sitting in the window seat, monitoring the chat and news channels on my key, browsing some favourite Earth sites and knowing I won't be able to get at them much longer. Vi said Kurt had sent her a quick mail with a warning about the lockdown beginning at 5.30pm today. I think I may never want to leave the apartment again.

I had a conversation with my father yesterday. He's been trying to get through since Monday but I haven't been answering. I can't really remember a lot of the things he said. He was angry, and he was trying to hide it but he couldn't. I remember he said: "Why, Scarlett? Why couldn't you talk to me?" And I didn't have an answer - at least not one that made any sense. And I remember he said: "I want you to come home." And I started crying, and Violet took the key away from me and shouted at him for a while about lying and deceiving, and how he owes us an apology. I've been doing that a lot lately. Crying.

I miss my dad, the dad I used to know, or thought I knew. And I miss the world how it was, when I thought he could solve it all for me. And I don't know what to do or what to say about any of this so I just say: I'm sorry. I don't know how much of this is my fault, but for the things that are, I'm sorry.

So I'm guessing that Sente didn't orchestrate the whole thing with Violet and Scarlett going to the Sentinel, given what Scarlett relates here...

Let's wait and see what happens as of 1730hrs GMT...

Yeah, that had been my theory, and in the light of this, and the info in Violet's last blog about the way her dad looked, I'm rapidly revising my opinion. I still think he knew what they were up to, but I think he radically underestimated how far they'd get, and obliged them thinking they'd hit the brick walls he'd set up, like the revised appearance of Viendenboug.

I'm really quite baffled byt this now... It would've been really poor judgement on Sente's part if he'd set things in motion only to be bested by his daughters... There's got to be something more to it than all that...

Anyone notice any changes to the access to PXC sites so far??

I can still get into them all, at least I tried the academy, Sentinel and a couple of the blogs. I guess they are still there for us to see, but we can't expect any updates.

I tried emailing all of the bloggers. No response so far, whereas you normally get their auto-respond...

Guess the link is choked off for now...

I didn't think he orchestrated going to the Sentinel. I did think he might have known what they were up to in the Lancewood Archipelago - until the latest data told us that they simply lost track of Major Jake Maine. So Sente wouldn't have expected Scarlett or Violet to find out anything about the current research in Viendenbourg.

I'm surprised that Violet and Scarlett didn't anticipate this sort of fallout but I think they would have gone ahead anyway.

I do wonder why no one mentions Anna, or finding her killers, her death seems wrapped up in this whole last bit of business.
