IRC: Jake Jan. 21, 2004

Here it is and a lot of minor points to pick through.

(Edited for minor points)

The Explosion: it looks like there was a tunnel between the excavation and the subterranean lab, no one is dead, fire was put out quickly. (Probably not a failed hop, per Jake)

Jake starts his new job as low man on the totem pole at NRU on Thursday. "officially, I calibrate equipment and run baseline tests."

Meg is home and they are talking, and Jake seems happy about that.

Discussion on how Becker's bullets might have made an impact on the where/when he hopped the second time and the possibility that this is a different universe (multiverse theory).

John Baxter and NRU seem to be a focal point for the multiverse.
Becker may figure prominently as well.

Jake isn't certain he should trust Frank Harker.

John Baxter, among his other talents was also a magician, hiding things in plain sight by distraction.

Re: IRC: Jake Jan. 21, 2004

A major task Jake wanted us to do was to make contact with Craig Becker. We have no confirmation of what his email address is in this timeline but in the original one it was cbeckerSPLATnru.us Seems like a reasonable place to start.

His email is jakeSPLATinanimatereason.com

Also, I think Jake's comment about Reggie being an amateur magician in the past is a hint about the orb.jpg puzzle. You really should read it in context though.

Confronting CT

Well, that is wonderful considering that we turned to Caretaker because Jake was desperately looking for him (at least in his blog.) I want to confront Caretaker whenever I get to speak with him in IRC again to ask him for proof of his good faith. Which means him giving us information for a change. We have unanswered questions from the old timeline as well as some new ones. One thing I wanted to ask is how he got Turgenev out of Espoo, that should be the same in both timelines, but is not our most pressing question.

I would be glad to ask any question that any one wants me too:
just post.

I am confident I can handle this without pissing him off at us. Smile

Becker

What is the best approach for Becker. We know that he is a greedy ruthless man. Should we try a little black mail? For example, we know something about time travel and his involvement in illegal activities. Jake is all ready in danger from Becker if Becker really did hop along with Jake to this new sideways timeline. I think this can be done without placing Jake in more danger and keeping John out of it.

Black mail is likely to cause him to be more wary. Stroke his Ego instead. After all, this time he is the Operational Manager and not just the head security lackey. You can catch more flies with Honey...

Okay, Rose flirts with Caretaker.
Heather (me) plans to flirt with John Baxter (if we can contact him - or Reggie).
Who wants to flirt with Becker????

Flirting

Kona - why can't we flirt with Becker too? The guys are unlikely to be in the same place at the same time. Maybe we could all fight over him, that would work on his ego. Laughing

I'd offer, but if he remembers anything from the previous timeline, I bounced a lot of e-mails to NRU.

/me looks over at Enaxor and Addlepated
"Either of you interested?"
