 		Well, I just had a rather interesting conversation with Greg -

Quote:
[13:47] AngryBanana1125: hello, are you tired of getting questions about Mark yet?
[13:47] gdogg628: yes, i dont know anything
[13:47] AngryBanana1125: well, i won't ask you about him then - i'm more interested in you
[13:48] gdogg628: i am the messiah
[13:48] AngryBanana1125: you are? i didn't see THAT coming - how are you so sure?
[13:49] gdogg628: jesus came to me in a dream
[13:49] AngryBanana1125: what did he tell you?
[13:50] gdogg628: he said "show my followers the light on judgement day, as it is coming soon"
[13:50] AngryBanana1125: do you know when judgement day is? were you given any details, or will you just 'know'?
[13:51] gdogg628: i dont know exactly
[13:51] gdogg628: but Mark said if you have any more questions to IM ClaretCrystalis
[13:52] AngryBanana1125: i see she is online now
[13:52] gdogg628: go talk to her, the messiah can't be wasting time with chit chat
[13:52] AngryBanana1125: yessir


So, I hit up Elise - and she randomly just STOPPED talking to me... Now I use Trillian, and I can see when people are responding to me - and it shows that she's been typing a message to me for about 20 minutes now... either it's a glitch or 'she' is having issues Sad

Quote:
[13:53] AngryBanana1125: i was just told by the messiah that if i had questions i should talk to you about them
[13:53] claretcrystalis: The messiah?
[13:53] AngryBanana1125: Greg... that is what he just claimed
[13:54] claretcrystalis: Greg's the messiah? And to think, all this time I was thinking either they were right about jesus or they hadn't come yet
[13:55] claretcrystalis: or humanity would eat itself.
[13:55] AngryBanana1125: they? who is 'they'?
[13:55] claretcrystalis: They people who say jesus was the messiah.
[13:56] AngryBanana1125: well, i find it hard to believe greg could be the messiah when he says it was jesus who came to him in a dream
[13:56] AngryBanana1125: and humanity is already eating itself - we're doomed
[13:57] claretcrystalis: Are you sure you're talking about Greg?
[13:58] AngryBanana1125: i was just talking to gdogg628 on AIM - is that NOT greg? he told me that mark told him if i had any questions to talk to you - he couldn't be 'bothered' with me... that's god-like...
[13:59] claretcrystalis: oh, Mark has the word "messiah" in his name
[14:00] AngryBanana1125: yes, so why would greg claim to be the messiah?
[14:02] claretcrystalis: what'd he say?
[14:03] AngryBanana1125: would you like the conversation? it was rather short
[14:03] claretcrystalis: sue
[14:03] claretcrystalis: *sure
[14:03] AngryBanana1125: [13:47] AngryBanana1125: hello, are you tired of getting questions about Mark yet?
[13:47] gdogg628: yes, i dont know anything
[13:47] AngryBanana1125: well, i won't ask you about him then - i'm more interested in you
[13:48] gdogg628: i am the messiah
[13:48] AngryBanana1125: you are? i didn't see THAT coming - how are you so sure?
[13:49] gdogg628: jesus came to me in a dream
[13:49] AngryBanana1125: what did he tell you?
[13:50] gdogg628: he said "show my followers the light on judgement day, as it is coming soon"
[13:50] AngryBanana1125: do you know when judgement day is? were you given any details, or will you just 'know'?
[13:51] gdogg628: i dont know exactly
[13:51] gdogg628: but Mark said if you have any more questions to IM ClaretCrystalis
[13:52] AngryBanana1125: i see she is online now
[13:52] gdogg628: go talk to her, the messiah can't be wasting time with chit chat
[13:52] AngryBanana1125: yessir
[14:04] claretcrystalis: [13:51] gdogg628: but Mark said
[14:04] claretcrystalis: go talk to her, the messiah can't be wasting time with chit chat
[14:04] AngryBanana1125: exactly - does that make sense to you?
[14:06] claretcrystalis: Mark said to talk to me, because Mark is the "messiah"
[14:06] AngryBanana1125: right, so why would Greg claim that he is - i have heard that Greg is mentally unbalanced - is that true?
[14:07] claretcrystalis: ...
[14:07] claretcrystalis: Greg was saying that Mark said "Go talk to her, the messiah can't be bothered"
[14:08] AngryBanana1125: ok - i must be a bit slow... greg distinctly said that HE was the messiah
[14:09] claretcrystalis: [13:51] gdogg628: i dont know exactly
[13:51] gdogg628: but Mark said if you have any more questions to IM ClaretCrystalis
[13:52] gdogg628: go talk to her, the messiah can't be wasting time with chit chat
[14:09] AngryBanana1125: [13:48] gdogg628: i am the messiah
[14:09] claretcrystalis: lol
[14:09] AngryBanana1125: hehehe Smile
[14:09] claretcrystalis: lol, Greg
[14:16] AngryBanana1125: well, i'm sure that it will all become clear in time - i think that we are all stumbling and sifting right now


Foily! sorry, haven't used foily in a while. I just had to~

Yep, I didn't get a chance to post the info -- Mark told me that the note was from Amelia to him. Yesterday, he said that Ryan had been collecting not just ERMI-related items, but items related to the patients -- including Damien and himself.

I don't think they like me Wink

[14:30] AngryBanana1125: hello
[14:30] pandoraleviathan: Hello.
[14:31] AngryBanana1125: how are you?
[14:32] pandoraleviathan: Okay.
[14:32] pandoraleviathan: You/
[14:32] pandoraleviathan: ?
[14:32] AngryBanana1125: i'm good - i was just talking to elise and she disappeared... i'm sorry, we've never spoke before. I'm Ang Smile
[14:33] pandoraleviathan: Short for Angry Banana?
[14:34] AngryBanana1125: why, yes
[14:36] AngryBanana1125: can i ask you a question?
[14:37] pandoraleviathan: What kind of question?
[14:38] AngryBanana1125: probably one that you won't answer - but as they say, 'it never hurts to try'
[14:38] pandoraleviathan: Shoot.
[14:38] AngryBanana1125: bang
[14:38] AngryBanana1125: Smile
[14:38] pandoraleviathan: Bang bang, shoot shoot
[14:39] AngryBanana1125: seriously, you and elise were close once - she has mentioned that you tried to kill yourself? (and i guess now i get 2 questions)
[14:40] pandoraleviathan: We were close. Then we weren't that close, now we are.
[14:40] pandoraleviathan: and Yeah, a long, long time ago.
[14:41] AngryBanana1125: how long ago? you obviously know that a lot of us have many questions - if i cross the line, please feel free to stop me
[14:46] pandoraleviathan: 2003 or so.
[14:46] pandoraleviathan: It seems like a different life, so it's not that hard to talk about really
[14:47] AngryBanana1125: can i wager a guess that everything changed on October 13th?
[14:47] pandoraleviathan: Wasn't that Friday the 13th?
[14:47] AngryBanana1125: i would have to check, but i believe it was
[14:48] pandoraleviathan: where'd you come up with that date?
[14:49] AngryBanana1125: When the truth was revealed
in the eviscerated eyes of another's lover,
the meaning was merely that
our own epiphany
was our ultimate fatality.

[14:49] AngryBanana1125: Does that sound familiar?
[14:50] pandoraleviathan: Yes, I wrote that. Aha.
[14:50] pandoraleviathan: On the 13th.
[14:50] pandoraleviathan: changed before that
[14:50] AngryBanana1125: changed? what do you mean?
[14:51] AngryBanana1125: and no - 10.13.2003 was a monday
[14:51] pandoraleviathan: AngryBanana1125: can i wager a guess that everything changed on October 13th?
[14:51] pandoraleviathan: I mean whatever you mean
[14:53] AngryBanana1125: i don't know what i mean, so how can you?
[14:54] AngryBanana1125: i am simply asking questions
[14:54] pandoraleviathan: I mean, I'd been writing poetry since 2002
[14:54] pandoraleviathan: They all had that kind of language, or a similar theme
[14:55] AngryBanana1125: they were dark like that?
[14:55] AngryBanana1125: they were *all dark like that?
[14:55] pandoraleviathan: Is that dark?
[14:56] AngryBanana1125: that's how i interpret it
[14:58] AngryBanana1125: but, it is cryptic - it could mean many things...
[14:58] pandoraleviathan: It's ambiguous.
[14:59] AngryBanana1125: when you are a cynic - it's not ambiguous, you automatically jump to the negative
[15:00] pandoraleviathan: But not everyone is a cynic. So it's ambiguous.
[15:00] pandoraleviathan: Cynics are just people with their own interpretations, just like everyone else.
[15:01] AngryBanana1125: i don't disagree - but that was my intrepretation... perhaps you could send me something else you've written
[15:02] pandoraleviathan: When I don't have 500 other people prodding me, sure
[15:03] AngryBanana1125: well, i can stop prodding you - i don't want to be a bother
[15:03] pandoraleviathan: You're not prodding as much as a few of the others.
[15:04] AngryBanana1125: well, i don't want to be a bother - you chat with me when you have time... i am sorry if others are being a little more agressive
[15:04] pandoraleviathan: It's fine.
[15:04] AngryBanana1125: some people just..... are 'them' -
[15:06] AngryBanana1125: and it just means you are popular
[15:07] pandoraleviathan: yippeee
[15:09] pandoraleviathan: lol
[15:09] AngryBanana1125: a giddy damien Smile i like that
[15:11] AngryBanana1125: i must say, i am concerned that elise just STOPPED talking to me - i hope she is ok
[15:11] pandoraleviathan: Did I tell you my name?
[15:11] AngryBanana1125: of course, she could be getting prodded too
[15:12] AngryBanana1125: no - i got it the same place i got your poem
[15:12] pandoraleviathan: hmm
[15:12] AngryBanana1125: is that a bad thing?
[15:12] pandoraleviathan: No.
[15:12] AngryBanana1125: i will tell you where i got it, if you'd like...
[15:13] pandoraleviathan: One of these other people?
[15:13] AngryBanana1125: your new friend Jessika
[15:14] pandoraleviathan: yeah
[15:14] AngryBanana1125: and add the comma where it needs to be Wink
[15:14] AngryBanana1125: i have never talked to her...
[15:14] pandoraleviathan: Comma, you say?
[15:15] AngryBanana1125: your new friend, Jessika*
[15:15] pandoraleviathan: Oh. It could be correct either way.
[15:16] AngryBanana1125: it didn't look correct to me - and even using IM, i try to do my best - feel free to correct me if i am wrong
[15:17] AngryBanana1125: so, tell me about you - you seem smart, witty, deep, charming - and this is from our first brief conversation. there has to be a flaw somewhere Smile
[15:18] pandoraleviathan: Wow, and I haven't even been able to really dedicate myself to the conversation.
[15:18] AngryBanana1125: and you're that good - very impressive
[15:19] pandoraleviathan: Thank you.
[15:21] AngryBanana1125: well, charm goes a long way
[15:23] pandoraleviathan: Charm's something I was unaware I was displaying.
[15:24] AngryBanana1125: sometimes it comes across subconsciously
[15:26] pandoraleviathan: Like, in a dream later on?
[15:26] pandoraleviathan: Unless you mean unconsciously.
[15:27] AngryBanana1125: you can subconsciously be doing anything you are unaware of...
[15:27] AngryBanana1125: unconscious would be when you are dreaming
[15:28] pandoraleviathan: Invert those.
[15:29] pandoraleviathan: The subconscious manifests itself in dreams, according to the basic principles of psychoanalysis
[15:31] AngryBanana1125: ....and you have enlightened me - thank you... so you were unconsciously charming - and for some reason i would like to hear about your dreams
[15:33] pandoraleviathan: They involve weird shite
[15:34] AngryBanana1125: they do? like what?


just sharing the info - not that there's much there

He did send this pic.. titled Janua (latin for doorway)



And from AngBa's latest post, she mentions October 13th...


OCT 13 - Fontanalia: festival dedicated to Fontus.

Fontus (alternatively Fons) was the son of Juturna and Janus. He was the god of wells and springs.

Janus was the god of gates, doors, doorways, beginnings, and endings. His ability to see both forwards and backwards at the same time aided him in his pursuit of the nymph Carna whom he gave power over door hinges as a reward for her favours.

 		um, what?

I'm SO confused. That whole Greg/Messiah/Mark/Elise thing has my head spinning in circles.

Sometimes I think this may not be a game, but then I realize that ERMI doesn't show up in any internet search, so it's fictional, and even though the characters say that no one has spoken to greg in years he still IMs them and talks about them.

Damien told me ClaretCrystalis is rarely online, yet she was on yesterday/today and you guys spoke to her. And, Damien said Ryan almost never checks his email, yet I got a response today.

My original:

Quote:
Ryan,
My name is Jason. I've been talking with your friends Mark and Damien online, through AIM, and they told me about your friend Paul. I'm so sorry to hear that you've gone through a loss like this... this is tough for me, and probably sounds a little off for you, but... Damien says you think you still see Paul around. I just want you to know that this is normal, and if you want to talk, I'd be glad to correspond with you.
-Jay


His response:
Quote:
If this is normal, then why is it grounds for institutionalization and social alienation?
Explain to me why I 'think' I see the immaterial forms of countless people who lie dead near or beneath the ground I'm standing on.
When my friends die and I say I'm seeing them, I don't think it's a method of coping. They have something they want to do before they leave completely and they're haunting me in hopes I'll figure out how to do it for them. But they won't just talk. They fucking ramble and it rarely makes sense.
If you think you can help me, please, try. No doctors could, no counselors could, and no drugs could, but I'm still willing to talk to anyone who thinks they may be able to.


Any suggestions as to how I should reply?

Could be - and notice the cursive capital "M" in the upper left corner... there's only one name we have that begins with M - unless it means something else - and in this game, it couldn't possibly mean that, could it? Laughing

 		[Red]Vengeance is in game. ArcFatalis just signed online, and look at his/her/their buddy info:

Quote:
A handful of other men were also interested, and the questions were many and good when Clevinger and the subversive corporal asked if there were any:
"Who is Spain?"
"Why is Hitler?"
"When is right?"
"Where was that stooped and mealy-colored old man I used to call 'Poppa' when the merry-go-round broke down?"
"How was trump at Munich?"
"Ho-ho beriberi."
and
"BALLS!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

instantZpleasure: crap i mispelled misepleled

Gdogg628: i am not a perv

Blue skies won't last for long.
[RED] Vengeance -- Tell your friends, it's great fun.


last part look familiar?

The beginning, I'm almost certain, is from Catch-22.

PandoraLeviathan signed online at the exact same time as ArcFatalis, further suggesting a connection. And he's away now too. Here's his info:

Quote:
"Who are you?"


An angel.


"What's your
name?"



Satan.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat. "or you wouldn't have come here."

Mistform Dragon: i'm...uhm...something's wrong with me


Blue skies won't last for long.



I'm also pretty sure I recognize that first part. It's from The Mysterious Stranger, by Mark Twain. At least, that book was about an Angel named Satan... I dunno if that exact quote is in it.

They won't speak to me, though. I guess I've got to add instantZpleasure now, too... How deep does this rabbithole go?
