Higg's thankyou video

I needed something to take my mind of checking my damn emails (3 times in less than three minutes AFTER this thing is over is way too often Embarassed )
so here it is the transcript of the thankyou from Higgs

Quote:
(shot is of higgs from shoulders up, white wall in background with a flowering plant to his right and some fairy lights to his left. He is holding a half finished bottle of Corona which is out of shot to start)

Hey Hey Sammeeeees Higgs here.

So how that went down I have no idea.
But I am so psyched to be back home.
Thanks to everybody who did what they had to do to get us out.
And Happy when you get back from Maine, Ben and I will be hangin out in your backyard; he's doin great by the way.
Jayne said he should be out by friday, so that's all very cool.

I just wanna say one thing to all of us who had to deal with this........ with going to the darkside and all these secret rituals (deep breath).

I just... I just wince every time I think about wearing that veil and that...and that naked armour thing.
(slight pause)
(higgs leans in a bit closer to the camera)
Let's just say that whatever happened on the Darkside stays on the Darkside.

(the haunting sounds of the Sammeeeees theme song "Time after Time" can be heard)
Hmmmm...

Cheers..... to Johnson's Eidolon;

Cheers to life.

(Fade to black)
(Fade up "Time after Time" plays through to completion of song)

Does it creep anyone else out that Higgs ended his speech with "Cheers to Johnson's Eidolon. Cheers to life." ?? That's what the Eidolon was always saying, and why would Higgs be toasting that... thing? Was he being ironic? I found it creepy.


I think he was being sarcastic. And Happy ended one of her emails to me with "cheers to life" so....

I sent a congrats to Jean Moulin and a note to Mrs. Foucher to let her and Russel know we saved the world again. I haven't heard from either of them.

Subject: It will take some time...
Current mood: sad
Category: Life

I want to thank all my Sammeeeee buds for being so nice. As most of you know, I'm not really someone that likes to show off my soft side. I usually save that kind of stuff for private. ...Life is weird. Isn't it? I... My mind has been jumping around. Sorry. It's like I have a thought and my next thought will be "Tutu is dead. Tutu is never coming home." I have said those words to myself again and again. I know it is the truth... it just... I can't seem to really imagine Tutu is gone from this world. She's been gone for a long time, and I had no idea. I keep wondering if she was even alive last fall. I have spent all this time searching for someone who could never be found. The anger I feel and the sadness and the confusion has me spinning. Jayne and Ben and Higgs have been in and out. My parents seriously just shake their heads at me like I'm on crack. I suppose I sound insane... Maybe I should have made something up about what happened to Tutu, but lying seemed so wrong. My doctor has backed off on the drugs. I'm just taking something to keep me mellow. Jayne told me she wants me to come and live with her when they release me. Of course, my Mom and Dad want me to go back to New Hampshire. I think staying at Jayne's is the best thing for me right now. She's such an awesome woman. She's kinda like a really cool Aunt with me. So, Sammeeeees, I guess we have to say goodbye again... too many goodbyes... You guys mean so much to me. Thank you for being there and thank you for rescuing us from Johnson's hell hole. And Jayne told me that you guys were responsible for sending Tutu and her new friend Phebe on to the forevermore. Thank you for doing that. It makes me feel good to think about Tutu not being alone... and being out there somewhere beautiful. I hope she's happy. And I hope she feels at peace. Below is a photo of a sunset. I'm placing it here as a reminder for me and for all my friends about the importance of each day we have under the sun. And as hard as life is for me now, I watched the sunset last night and I had to just say - Wow... we live in an amazing world that may be filled with problems and hardships... but it still is amazing to be alive and even more amazing to have friends like you.

Thank you, Sammeeeees.

Another Tear jerker...for me at least!

Hello Sallyyyyy,
I hope you are home safe and sound. Some of you Sammeeeees went through so much to come and help us. This was a difficult rescue for Dark Siders as well as the Under Nedd's Bed Crew. Of course, you are one of those on that list that went the extra mile. Thank you, Sallyyyyy, for taking the time out of your busy life to come to help your old friends.

How are you doing with the transition from the dark side back to your life? I'm so relieved to be back here, but I must tell you that I cannot seem to catch up on my sleep. All that wandering took it's toll. It is funny though, I can't sleep very well at night. I'm mostly sleeping during the day. I must say that I am enjoying taking so much time to look up at the incredible night sky. I was sitting on the edge of my bed last night and looking out at the beautiful and mysterious universe. There's a meteor shower this weekend and I must have seen 10 shooting stars. Each star gave me a chance to wish for something good for each of my friends. However, I did save one for you. I'm sending you the wish, dear friend. Please close your eyes and make it yours.

My garden needs so much work right now. Happy has been taking video shots of it and wants to include it in her film about her trip across the country to Maine. She makes me smile. When she's not shooting her video, she's running around cleaning up all the khamsa hands I had pasted and glued all over this house and even the front fence. There's also salt everywhere! I must admit it is a mess. But even with the mess, I love this place. I'm going to ask Patricia if I can stay for awhile. This might be a good place for me to live while I decide what is next for me and my life. It is very quiet in this town and the people are very nice. Two things I need right now. The gardening season is not too long, but that should make it even more special to have my garden each year.

Patricia and Dwin (Cathy and Kevin) are doing well. They do not leave each other's side. They are so close. There is so much love there. And for some reason, watching them gives me hope about everything in my life. Patricia and Dwin were both orphans, like me, and somehow found their way, in this huge and overwhelming universe, to each other. I hope I can find my way as well. Sara and little Alan are here visiting and they help me feel less like an orphan.

Please write and let me know that you're okay. And I will not say goodbye with my note today. I will say... we'll meet again. Do you know this beautiful song that is sung by Rosemary Clooney called "We'll meet again.."? I love this song as much as I love "Time after time" by Cyndi Lauper. I've placed the lyrics below. If you can ever find a recording of it, listen to it, it is so very touching. Take care, Sallyyyyy. And thank you taking the time our of your busy life to again stop and help an ordinary man.

Love
Peeps


We'll meet again,
Don't know where,
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day
Keep smiling through,
Just like you always do
Till the blue skies drive the dark clouds far away

So will you please say "Hello"
To the folks that I know
Tell them I won't be long
They'll be happy to know
That as you saw me go
I was singing this song

We'll meet again,
Don't know where,
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day

We'll meet again,
Don't know where
Don't know when.
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day.
Keep smiling through
Just like you always do,
'Til the blue skies
Drive the dark clouds far away
So will you please say"Hello"
To the folks that I know.
Tell them I won't be long.
They'll be happy to know
That as you saw me go,
I was singin' this song.

We'll meet again,
Don't know where,
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day

Hi kona,

Still no word from the Dancing and the Singing Nun. But that's not why I'm writing to you. Something weird is going on... Peeps is asking me about Mr. Fangs. He wants to know who he is and what we all know about him. Peeps was in tears about some email Mr. Fangs sent to him. I barely know Mr. Fangs. And after all I've been through with that guy, I'm hardly the one to judge him. I have asked Peeps about the email and he will not give me the specifics. How well do you know Mr. Fangs? I hope this guy is not a real threat to any of us. Please let me know what you think.


Hmm, it wasn't signed.

Edit: It was signed "I'm still Happy" but it was below the "quoted text" on gmail. Missed it the first time.

Kona, did the email come from Happy's regular email address? :/

Fangs, have you been up to some mischief with Peeps??

NO. I have not!!! Believe me! I only mentioned what Eidolon sent me on Thu Aug 09, 2007( I thought the game was over, didn't check my game email till a couple days ago.)! Perhaps I should not have done it, but the point of the game is to get all the story, right?

I believe you. Wink Eidolon is still writing to you? Wow.

I'm guessing that Peeps got upset from your asking because he has a difficult time facing the terrible things he did before he escaped from Spoocheeeee. None of the White Roses were entirely innocent of wrong-doing, but they were being controlled by Spoocheeeee. Knowing that probably doesn't make it any easier to think about...

Our Peeps is fragile.

Wha?!? You never posted that email from Eidolon. When did that show up? That might have been interesting to see before you sent something to Peeps. What did you send to Peeps? He very much regrets anything he did as a jackel - which is why he was trying to get away from Spoocheeeee last year (to be an ordinary man). He will always be emotionally fragile.

Dalton Trumbo's wife & Thomas were an item? Could that have been, say, about 16 or 17 years ago???

[Wild Ass SPEC] I thought he was AJ's son...but was he really just his nephew??? Could Peeps be the father....of.....Kevin???


mrfangs - please share when you get IG emails. Please?

Oooh, Fangs - write Eidolon back and make him give you the scoop on Peeps' liason. Yes, finding out the whole story is definitely part of the game. Maybe the Eidolon is disturbed enough by Mithras's prison to tell all. Twisted Evil

(and then of course you'll come back and tell us, too.)

Edited to add: Is Kevin 16/17??? He doesn't look that old!!

Geeze Kona, I thought the game was over! I haven't checked in a while! My parents aren't thrilled with me being online all the time. I checked on the nun, never my mail! I had WORK to do, school has started!
