I spoke with Epi a little. I think she's amused that I renamed her.

It seems to me like all the characters in this, so far, have been rather androgynous. Except for the King, who appears decidedly male.

Why was Lioness capitalized, if frog wasn't?

Hm. Interesting.

I must say, I think this is an ARG first.

I know she's a female, but she doesn't have many feminine traits. Perhaps it's normal for her, wherever she has been, to not focus on gender constructs like we do. That's just all I'm saying.

Also, the user info for that new journal, yvbyaw5jzq, says something along the lines of "he cannot keep you from me for long."

Maybe her Prince(ss) is looking for her? Maybe someone else entirely?

I'm... intrigued.

We only have three characters. Eppy is admittedly female (though I think we should remember that she repeatedly suggests/states that she isn't human), and the King is very male. The female Prince is strange though. So, we now know that this Prince is alive and being held/hidden by the King.

Also, the new LJ has "Epsilon" as it's only interest.

I love how the LJ replies to Eppy's posts are now in languages I just don't comprehend. Ack! Sad

Yeah well, I already speak French, so why not just keep it up in that language?

Anyway, I just told her she wasn't on MSN and it made me sad. Looks like she's busy, though.

I can't imagine with what. Fending off nightmares, I guess. I feel bad for her.

If she's not human, than how can we even hope to relate to how she's feeling? Her brain/mind might not even feel emotions the same way. We have no idea... Or at least, I don't. Maybe I'm taking this Not-Human thing too far...

It looks to me like she feels fear, sadness and happiness at least almost the same as we do, if not exactly the same as we do.

Did you ever think that maybe she was human and the King did something to her, to all of them in that asylum she keeps talking about, to make her something inhuman?

Of course, but the fact that she no longer considers herself human means that something (imagined or not) has changed in regards to how her mind works.

Edit: Redundant!

The new images in both journals look decidedly alien.

Here is my proposal:

They are aliens. We know she is from "far away" when I asked if she was not from Earth, and that she was outcast.

I think, she was outcast by the king because she fell in love with the Prince, which was not allowed - possibly because the prince is female, hence she could have been banished for showing homosexual desire for the prince, or just that she was not worthy enough and the king didn't like the idea of her going for his prince/daughter/son.

Crazy and not much evidence to support it, but it's what first came to mind...

It makes plenty of sense. Those pictures attached to the newest postings are definitely not human faces. My first thought was "How can I help if this Prince chick ends up being in space or something?"

Epsilon is now aware of the new LJ, correct? Any word?

I see a lot happened while I was gone to slumberland too.

One of the images the "Prince" posted in his LJ is a black eyed pea face, just so you know =P *tomato'ed*


Eppy has a video in her LJ. I'm watching it now.


FUCK! I hate this videos, they freak me!


I believe this was a video she found in youtube, and, I don't think it has any particular inside clues, given it was produced by others (and is from 2005), but it can confirm or suspicions that we have aliens involved in the game.



This video reminds her of HOME, according to the binary text.
