Quote:
Vanessa
Jim.

I've not got much time. The wall is watched.

Thanks.

 		Oh great. We're all gonna get nuked!

But, my question is why would they just invite him in? Sudden change of heart really. Even until recently, V was referring to him as a creep and stuff. Unless her uncle invited him in. But, still...

I still question whether Vlad is a 'good guy'. Couldn't he be taking full advantage of the current situation to gather all the information he needed from the papers J had/has?

Edit ::

JPW tried to add me as a friend on facebook. Message along with it says "Argon sends it's regards." and a link - http://www.sxc.hu/photo/700618
The link is from a stock photo site, showing a bloody hand print on the snow.

Edit 2::
Seems facebook is being a piece of shit again. Lagging to hell and back for everything. Why in the living hell is this laggy piece of crap so popular?

 		Perhaps JPW actually killed Vlad in the snow and is like an imposter pretending to be Vlad over at Johan's place, just speculation... I should have told Vanessa to pass on my regards to Vlad or even better my condolences lol.

 		Don't think it's that. Vlad would have a way of them knowing it was him.
Also, I would think J knows Vlad if his relationship with V's mother is what he says it was.

My response to his friend request :
Quote:
So, trying to add me on Facebook? What's the meaning of it? Think you can get my profile to divulge some new information, think my posts will show something you need? And what of the bloody handprint on the snow? Is that a threat of some sort?
Also, how's Claire doing? I'm pretty sure you've been watching her closely.
And V as well? Seems to think her digital stuff is no longer safe. 'Argon' decide to put a little bug on there?

What do you plan to do should you get Vladimir, or V, or Johan? Snuff 'em out like you had her mother?


His response.

Quote:
Thank you for the access.
As for V and V - neither have a strawberry 'chief so they are fine.
As for Claire. She is safe, following your plan to the letter. How mush IS international mail now?
Of course, should she complete her scans it won't be necessary to follow the butterflies so much.
Johan. Well, it would be unfair of me to pick on a defenceless old man would it not...


He doesn't even deny the accusation about killing V's mother.

Edit :
It could just be UK slang or something, but, when he said 'strawberry 'chief' I thought 'strawberry handkerchief', strawberry being an allusion to the color of blood. Also, I may be wrong, but, wasn't a handkerchief an important object in the play Othello? Another possible Shakespeare reference, maybe?

There may be more. I'm probably going to post the email history here.

Edit :: Here's my entire email correspondence with him.

As for what's being said on facebook :
Quote:
Jean Pierre Weiller January 6 at 5:38pm
Why doesn't Vladimir sleep?
As for making a move, who's to say I haven't already...
Which would make it the fourth - a scholar one told me he was my friend at this point. Fool.


I was damn close to saying "BECAUSE HE'S A VAMPIRE!!!" but, left that out.

::EDIT::
That little 'report' bit was coppied in there on accident. It's the 'report spam' button from when you get messages from people you haven't friended. I've edited it out of the message above. Sorry for the confusion.

 		JPW has requested I deliver all VA's scans to him. I've asked him why he would require such items if I am to help him, but am quite unsure about him. On the one hand, helping may get some more information on what he's up to, but at what cost?

What do folk think?

The stuff on pastebin? You should be able to just click the link and view it.

Here's a direct link to a downloadable version, as a .txt file
http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=m67c4ab3a

Also, act 3 of Othello - On the summery link above, from my understanding of it, the handkerchief is both a symbol of Othello's love, but also the device used to sew the seeds of doubt in his mind, and make him think his woman is cheating on him. Not sure how that comes in to play here, I'll need to keep reading.

 		Vlad and Johan definitely know each other. Before he left, Vlad said he was going to see Johan to mend old wounds (or something along those lines) before they both die.

I also just noticed JPW added me as a friend. Not going to add him back, but I'm not really sure what reason I'll give. I got the same info as everyone else -- "argon sends its regards" and the stock photo link. Photo has a weird void zone in the handprint.

Okay, weird. So, I told you guys that my former hairdresser/friend, Terri, had inadvertently added Vanessa as an FB friend. We went OOG for a bit to explain it to her and she still contacts V knowing about the "situation". I got a message from my friend:

Quote:
URGENT DANGER !!!!
VANESSA GRAVE DANGER (OREGON ???) WELL ??/ Validir Sinn NEGATIVE : DANGER IN VANESSA's HOUSE ...HELP !!!


Don't know what to make of this, but I'll find out. Guess she's playing now too.

Edit:
I'm getting bits and pieces. JPW contacted Terri and told her that V is in danger in her house -- from Vlad, I assume. This is getting weird and interesting on my end...

@Telos: naha, I mean the above FB info. How does one eccess that? THX

@Dagada: Hi! Actually sending JPW any scans may be going a bit too far imo.

 		This is getting weird, guys.

This is my conversation so far with Terri.

Terri:
VANESSA GRAVE DANGER (OREGON ???) WELL ??/ Validir Sinn NEGATIVE : DANGER IN VANESSA's HOUSE ...HELP !!!

Me: Did you talk to Vanessa? What's going on?

Terri:
Jean Pierre ??? is the DANGER !!!! ??????he notified me ....HE IS THE DANGER ????

Me:
What did he tell you? Jean Pierre is a bad person. He killed V's mom. He's the danger.

Terri:
That Valdimir Sinn was in V"s hse...she was in GRAVE DANGER ask about Well in ORegon

FILE MARKED 7

Me:
Vladamir knows Vanessa's family. He dated her mom before Jean Pierre killed her. What's this about a well in Oregon?

Terri:
FILE MARKED 7.....ask if I knew Oregon ...negative...WELL ???

(Yes, she does usually type like that.)

Edit:
So while I wait for responses, I googled Argon earlier. Now, let me preface this by saying my chem teacher in high school was a genius who had no common sense, so everyone cheated their way through his class. It looks like Argon is pretty...boring...for the most part. It's used in light bulbs. It's sometimes used in eye surgeries and may shrink tumors. It doesn't blow stuff up or anything. It does cause asphyxiation if used in an enclosed space.

Edit again:
So apparently, JPW emailed (not sure if it was real email or FB messages) Terri and told her he was friends with me and wanted to friend her. He then "emailed in box about file 7". Sigh. It's so hard to talk to someone whom I love to pieces, but it's like beating my head against a wall to get information. I asked her to copy and email me what he said. Her last response was "Ministry of Argon"?????

 		New message from JPW.
From me :
Quote:
I wouldn't know why he doesn't sleep. I don't pry in to personal matters like that. Also, No one said that you hadn't, but you did say i would be unfair to make a move against a defenceless old man. Unless you're the unfair sort of person, I would take it that you haven't done so just yet. Not on him any way.


From Him:

Quote:
I wouldn't. But obviously you are not of logic or thought, focusing more on the tittles and strokes than the actual words.
Read our conversation just moments ago [10.22 if you need to be led there]- the WHOLE post. I gave a caesura for effect.
You do not realise he is NOT defenceless now...



I sent back :
Quote:
never thought he was defenceless, really. He seems the type to have all sorts of things in place to ensure his and his family's safety. Even if I don't directly know of them, I'm sure he's got something other than just V.
As for that handkerchief comment. If neither of them has it, are you saying that they're the ones who 'dropped it', or are you inferring that they are the ones using it to sew those seeds of doubt? I'm not horribly familliar with the play, but I do know a bit about Scene III.


Got these two in return :
Quote:
Ah, III perhaps III III even?
He that is robb'd, not wanting what is stol'n,
Let him not know't, and he's not robb'd at all.


Quote:
O, blood, blood, blood!
I + 1 + i = 3
and when they were up they were up
How would you like me to say it James? You do not trust me. You trust Vladimir. Vladimir is wrong and has misled you. Do not snuff out a candle when you can light another as well.

 		Chemical info
Argon, noble gas (mostly unreactive), when electrified, glows blue, can be used in lasers, 3rd most common gas, and can be used to prevent interaction with oxygen of wine, other foodstuffs and most intriguingly, a sample of caesium is packed under argon to avoid reactions with air. I don't know if the same could be said of element 111? *shrug* Don't know if any of this is relevant.
