 		Update to Ethan weblog [Nov 18]
http://ethan.thenekodas.com

Seems that Dina and Ethan ran into some trouble when they went to meet their contact (who I think was Scratch).

Looks like a Whomp occured and confused them. Crying or Very sad

 		Hmmm

Scary, but I think the agents got them. Note "They were coming."
They created a wall to trap her.

Not more dina updates, I fancy...

Time to breathe. I must breathe. I can here. I'm ok here. Am I ok? Oh god what's happening? I don't understand this. It didn't happen. It's not happening. She must still be there. Oh god! She's gone! Her hand was reaching out. Was it reaching for me? Why didn't I take it and save her? Could I have saved her? Her hand. Our ring. Oh god, why didn't I go back? Why didn't I get her? Running. Rain. Voices. She slipped. She couldn't keep up. She screamed. Her scream. Her pain. Her scream. I turned to help. The wall. It wasn't there before. Her hand. Oh god!

Went to the bar, met him. He knows Jesse, told us where he is. She was so happy. She was going to meet her son, our son. We were going to see him! They were coming. "Run!" We couldn't make it to the car! The rain. She slipped. She fell behind, and I didn't stay with her! Why wasn't I there for her? Why did I run? Who are they? Oh, my God! Am I safe? Jesse? She'll be with Jesse. She loves him, she loves me. I love her so. Dina. Oh, god, you're so beautiful! Dina! Your hand was just there reaching. You were reaching for me.

The rain. The wall. Your hand. Reaching. Breathe.

 		...didn't something like this occur in the Matrix movie? Seems like a common tactic...wasn't it a hotel that they walled up then?

And Ethan. Hello, your wife is grabbed by mysterious people who are possibly agents.

What's the first thing you do? Blog.

Ughhhhh. Where is he, anyway? A cybercafe?

 		The question then is...Did they experience a deja vu? since "they" obviously changed something in the matrix i.e. the wall.

Also, any more doubts that this ARG is not taking place in the matrix? Very Happy

 		It's amazing how a person who is so nervous has time to use perfect punctuation, grammar, and spelling.. [EDIT: okay not the grammar :)]

Shouldn't it have been more like "time tobraethe i must breathe.....i can here... Im okya here. am i okay here?!?!? oh god whats hapenning"

 		Dina and the Butterfly/Moth on the Door
The pic of the butterfly/moth on the door at Dina's blog might have been a hint as to what was going to happen to Dina. Somebody mentioned the whole "transformation" symbolism and now it looks like an agent has gotten ahold of Dina and taken her over. That would be a transformation of sorts.

Yes. Ethan talks of being chased by someone.
Quote:
They're coming


But I don't think she transformed. She was running with Ethan. If she transformed, Ethan would be no more.

She fell behind
He says this. And it makes me think of whenever someone "falls behind" in a horror film it often means they got caught by the "boogey man".

Exactly. And there's no indication that she actually died, so I'm guessing she'll be back. Maybe she got captured, unplugged and flushed down the remember-that-nasty-scene-in-the-first-movie?-drain and come back with crazy kung-fu knowledge Smile

 		Just wondering... Is this what happened to Dina and Ethan last time? Is this why they didn't remember their "previous life"? Are we about to find yet another site where Sylvie=Dina=??? blogs on the internet about music and weird dreams?
