 		New blog entry by John.
http://bleedingmaroon08.wordpress.com/2008/02/21/found-something-more-at-least-part-i/

He found Erics diary pages, where Eric mention his experiments with mices after he read "planaria: Memory transfer through Cannibalism" by James V. McConnell.

Eric seems to be innocent - as far as I understand it.

 		Looks like the Aurora site has changed around again. Nothing really revelatory apart from this piece of text in the page source;

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
After successful launch of the last Aurora Satellite, We will remove ourselves from the internet and all forms of media.

 		Just came to post that.

Crap, so do we just have 2 days left to solve what's left? We still have an unknown project and an unknown subsidiary on the Junker site. We also have unused clues from this last round - two tarot, hippos, and the zodiac wheel.

 		Man, that makes my head hurt... now I know why I mostly lurk Shocked

I'm no dummy, just not up on the whole code-breaking thing. My lurking is making me better though, and I'm pretty good at thinking outside the box, so I'm pretty sure I'll be of some help eventually. Until then, back into the shadows for me, and I'll be interested to see what you guys come up with!

 		Is it me, or did the sushi picture on John's blog change? This afternoon, it showed a plate of 6 pieces of ATheNA. Now it shows a single ATheNA held up by chopsticks.

Also: Yori's dead? D:

 		Yes, the image was different before.

And unless being labeled as Prometheus means they can grow back brain tissue, I'd say she's a goner. I'm also not sure what getting pure Athena is going to do to John. We'll see if he gets Yori's memories.

Okay. I'm not crazy. ATheNA looks a lot more delicious in the new picture anyway. The old one looked like it was burnt. Too bad we know what that stuff really is D: NOT APPETIZING.

Also, regarding Prometheus: going back to the Enlightenment Society site...
Quote:
ATheNA is in fact a much selected piece of meat from what we like to call the 'Prometheus'. We assure you that quality and ethical controls established by us mean that the 'Prometheus' will live at least up to 24 years before the extraction of the ATheNA compound. After that, the 'Prometheus' is then returned to its natural habitat where it is expected to live a long happy and carefree life.


Probably 99% propaganda and 1 % truth, but we can hope, no?

Just in case, I sent Yori a birthday email, asking why she dissapeared from the interwebs all of a sudden. I made it really sappy, too. It kinda sounds like something from Kanon, actually. Maybe that's because I've been watching the (Family-friendly!) anime remake XD (EDIT: Kinda funny, too. I was listening to some Rage Against the Machine when I wrote that letter. Just goes to show how awesome I am at staying in character XD)

Let's hope she replies.

EDIT 2: Probably smart to put up the letter I sent, ne? Hope I didn't give away too much info about what we know, but... meh. Junker's after our rears anyway XD

Quote:
I dunno where you are or if you're even still alive or not, but happy birthday!

I would have sent you a song or a picture or something, but this is my work laptop, and, as such, has nothing fun on it D: Which sucks, too, because I had a cool song from an old video game I used to play. It was the Fireworks Festival song from Animal Crossing. iTunes lists one of the composers as Shinobu Tanaka. Relative of yours? Razz

Everyone's kinda worried about you. You kinda disappeared from the internet after the incident at Takeda a while ago, and someone even told me one of those bad people got hold of your phone, telling us to "forget about you," because "we'll never see you again." Your friend from Russia sent us a really neat picture that you'll find rather familiar, y'know.

If you're still alive, please respond.

So I take it Yori is turning 24?

I would assume that once junker launches Pisces 2 and they remove themselves from all manner of internet things, the game will depend on intercepted messages and such.

I can't get to Yori's facebook from here at school, but... I DO remember the birthday she had on there being sometime during the early 80's. Then again, we found out that's her sister's birthday, no?

 		Crap! I didn't check email until this morning. I sent this to John before leaving work yesterday

You may want to reconsider what you just ate. Let me know if you want to find out what it really was. I believe it has to do with Eric's experiments.
You may want to make yourself scarce as well. I think I will.


And he replied

Pure form?!, isnt that deadly? I dont feel any different. Do you have a phone?

Ah! Everybody wants to call me this week...

I'm at work and can't do anything on the phone now, but I'll see if he can talk later or chat on AIM before then. If anyone else is free to talk to him sooner, maybe send him an email tout de suite.
