Found the various literary works she got her post titles from.

The first one ("The yellow fog that rubs its back upon the window-panes,") is from The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufcock

The second ("unspeakable wrongness") is from A Hanging

The third ("His eyes sparkle like doves beside springs of water; they are set like jewels washed in milk") is from the
Song of Songs

The fourth ("He was part of my dream, of course -- but then I was part of his dream, too!" ) is from Alice in Wonderland (I think, most google search results just said "Lewis Carrol quote", but a couple said alice in wonderland too)

The sixth ("delirium was the only solution to the strangulation that life had prepared for him.") is from Van Gogh, the Man Suicided by Society by Antonin Artaud

The seventh ("Secrets are made to be found out with time." ) is a quote by Charles Sanford.

The ninth ("Into each life some rain must fall.") is a Longfellow quote (couldn't find if it was from a specific work or just something he said)

And thanks for the transcript, amandel.

After reading that blog, I am not certain that it is a part of this game, although I could be wrong. Anyone else wanna give it a read and put in their thoughts?


I'm not convinced it is, either. The dates from the post are from 2004, and make reference to the daughter being 21. It just doesn't seem to fit.

and considering that the picture from Angie's blog has the date of October 21st, 2400, the Dearest Daughter blog would be waaaaaaaaaay too old to be meant for Angie.

I tried to find Berry's blog.

There is a blog at
http://boysenberry.blogspot.com/
but it is not public

BTW. Boysenberry was the name Berry used in his email to Angie.

Hmm, I think when I talk to Berry again I will ask about the blog, to see if he will invite me to read it or to make it public( if it is infact his blog)

[edit] this is berry's blog, http://fromb3rry.blogspot.com/ , was found by his comment on her audio clip blog post.

[edit2] just had a very weird converstaion with someone on Angie's Gtalk:

Sounds to me like an Orion interception through her address. For those not fully reading the blog, Orion is the research facility that seems to be running a 1984ish hold over these people.

Reply to my prior email to Berry

Angie has her own abilities. Angie is special. Of that I am very, very certain. It's more than a feeling. It's an instinct. A reality.

Put aside everything you know about facilities like Orion. Angie would tell you the same. If anything, now, more than ever, we want to run to that place because it feels safe. It feels right. I couldn't explain to you why. I think I know....but I can't explain. Not yet. It doesn't feel like the right time yet. And I believe that there's a time for everything and everything has it's place and must be kept in place. It's important. So important. I just know it. All these years of thinking and feeling, I'm sure they've led to now and to what's ahead. I just don't know what that is.

You make an excellent point Miss Rosie, but these are not my parents. Not at all. I don't think it's them and they've been changed or something. I think they're meant to give the appearance of them, but to a son, to someone who loves them, they don't. I know the bleed, my 'mother' cut herself making dinner last night. She reacted the same way any human would and when I was helping her bandage it I could feel flesh and bones and the blood rushing through her veins, it's all there. But then she hugged me and it wasn't the same and I pulled away and the look this woman gave me....it was love. But at the same time as if she was apologising for something. Like she was hurting just as much as I feel like I am. The unknown is both a blessing and a curse. Unless it's tangling with the ones you love.

The network has had problems ever since the Gas rolled in. It not only kills us, but it creates soem sort of interference around all our technology, which makes communication with the wider area and world, very difficult. It's back up today, looks as though we'll have another Gas free morning atleast. I've been able to get alot down which is good...normally I wouldn't have the time. And yes, we always monitor our online time, it's necessary so we can all get things done, work etc. Once my parents have done all their necessary nonsense, I can sit down and use it until the network misbehaves again. I have a certain amount of freedom with it, but only at certain times.

Questions are important Rosie. They help us to learn.

Strawberry.


And as for the other thing with the Orion, so far our two main contacts don't think it is all that intrusive, or dangerous or something, they just think that weird things are happening. I guess from the chat from this evening, I would say maybe we tread lightly? Is there anything else I should ask Berry? I'm running out of ideas for questions.

Intrusive dosent nessecarily mean dangerous. From the way that Angie descrived Orion it sounded like a protective figure that was a big part of the society and its well being. And the chat showed a def being but one that was not destructive.. just preventitive. I dont know, it could be or it could not be but i dont think it is worth dismissing yet.
