That's what I'm saying. There were no clues to suggest shifting etc. Catherwood posted as a 'guest'. I don't like that..

You know what I'm getting at..


Catherwood often posts as a guest. Guessing it has something to do with being at work.

 		Thanks for the welcome, amandel! I love it here!
And, XtRaVa? As for Catherwood, I know she's good. I wish I knew how she figured out the 15-shift, because I'm new at all this (I admire all of you who know what you're doing!), but I've run into a couple other of her posts, I think she posts offline while she's at work or something, that's all.

Not sure it's a spoiler or not, so, I'm hiding it just in case.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

I've had the "I saved you" and the scene it's in running through my head for hours, and thinking: The obvious (to me) is 'Look, I temporarily saved you from the thing possessing you'. But... that leads me to wonder how the saving was done. Knocking GBJ out and dragging him to a safer place, like the school? I suppose that's a stopgap measure, but in my opinion, knocking out someone who is possessed gives the thing doing the possessing better leverage.

 		Faerie, perhaps being knocked out while possessed allowed him to regain control of his body. Another possibility is that it was proximity to something in the tree trunk that allowed whatever it was to take control of him, and removing him from the area let him regain control. Or our mystery messenger could have done something to drive it away during the missing time. I see plenty of possibilities here, but no clear answer.

Makes you wonder how much of the videos are pre-recorded. It seems like they are being made and edited in real time so to speak

 		Yeah some have definitely been recorded in real-time. We know because GBJ mentions QAlchemist, and bears (which we talked about and is a possible nod to that conversation).

Planned before hand but mainly filmed as it plays out I think.
