Possibly the longer the neuron implant is within the patient the stronger it gets....??

I will say this: it was a bad decision to send all of the questions at once. Most of the questions had the same answer, and I feel like if we had asked N questions one at a time we would have been able to get a bigger picture.

Ah but it's in the past, live and learn.

I don't think N is Jess's LITERAL other half. The Mr.Hyde explanation doesn't explain why N "cares for" Jess, or how they grew up together. I'd say a twin brother/sister.

Kissinger has surfaced. We are allowed to send in one small video.

But what does short clarify as though? 30 seconds to a minute?

Use your judgment. Mine is 30 seconds.

Just it an email from Dr David Kissinger thanking me for sending in my video..
Anyone notice the doctor.com ending on his email addy? There is a David Kissinger who is a surgeon in California..but I'm willing to bet he is OOG.

EDIT: I probably should mention...I found the information on doctor.com. Got a little ahead of me self.

Okay, I spoke privately to this N and they told me--revealed to me--something that I'm not sure I can share without breaking the game-I may have to ask them for permission first--but suffice it to say I'm fairly sure now that N is a disparate entity from Jess.

Also, I'm not doing a video. I have no way to make one, and besides I've never felt comfortable with that sort of thing. If this means I have to drop off from further contact with Jess and N for Jess' own sake, that's fine, but I'll still keep researching in the background.

EDIT: I too looked on doctor.com, just on the offchance the PMs went to the extra trouble--but you'd be surprised how many different Dr. Kissingers they have listed.

How were you able to make contact with N? Or did he come to you?

He posted on the blog that he wanted to speak to me privately, so I emailed him. He says to keep quiet for now, but that he has a 'little surprise' in store for us tomorrow.

Edit: And for now he's got this to say:


three acts


ACT i

[the MAIDEN is sitting in her bower, covered in blood, her clothes torn. the NURSE happens upon her and tends to her wounds while asking her what happened.]

the NURSE:

darling dear

what have you done?

your hands and face

are smeared with blood!



the MAIDEN:

the chaplain came,

and called me out

to beat and to butcher

his mother's sow



ACT ii

[the TOWN CRIER reveals that the MAIDEN's brother has been killed. the MAIDEN is devastated.]

the CRIER:

but darling dear,

we found him dead.

this morning on the riverbed.



the MOTHER:

but hush now darling,

don't you cry!

his reward's

in the sweet bye and bye!

so hush now baby,

don't you cry!

his reward's

in the sweet bye and bye!



ACT iii

[the QUISLING finally has the corrupt KING in his grasp, and gives a final speech before killing him. but the KING also has words to say- will the QUISLING succeeded in his quest, or will he realize what a monster he has become and be defeated?]

the QUISLING:

and now,

you've seen your powers.

softly stretch the hours.



the KING:

you're a fickle little twister,

are you sweet on your sister?

'cause now,

you go wandering home.

[curtain falls]



whatwillhappeNNext,

N


Does anyone recognize this play or is he making this up?

The play doesn't look familiar.
However, the definition of a quisling is a traitor who serves as a puppet for the enemy...aiding an enemy force.

So, this quisling is N?

He's back.

I have ears everywhere, even in the most silent of places

[door opens]

"Who are you?"

"What do you mean? I'm the doctor here- you hurt your hand two days ago, remember? I'm going to go X-ray it and make sure you didn't do any severe damage."

"Oh, okay. Um, um. Okay, I'm not trying to to be rude or pushy or anything, but I'm supposed to get a meal today, right? If… if I don't then that's… well, I guess that's okay. But, I was supposed to get some sort of camera… with videos of people… they said it's part of the experiment."

"Hah, yea, you're going to get a meal, just night right now, okay? Calm down, it's okay. For now, I'm more worried about your physical health than the experiment, okay? I got clearance from Natalie about that, okay? I'm a doctor first and foremost. I'm not gonna hurt you. I just want to make sure that your hand is okay."

"Okay…"

[switched over to infirmary microphones]

"Just put your hand over here, and then I'll go into the other room for just a second, alright?"

"Um, okay."

"I told you, don't worry, okay? Loosen up a bit."

"And we're done. Hm. Your wrist looks a little jammed but you should be okay otherwise. I'll have to brace it. Here."

"What's this?"

"It's a candy bar. You can't be that far into shock… are you?"

"I don't want it."

"I already told you, the first week you're here is just to help you relax and get adjusted. And I'm not gonna poison you or anything. Believe it or not, I'm one of the few here who still holds to the Oath, alright?"

"I don't want it."

"And why is that? You were just asking for something to eat earlier. You aren't in your room right now, you won't be getting your meal until next meal time."

"But the camera!"

"They're going to give the camera to you next meal time, that's what I just said. I managed to get priority so I could see if you were okay. I wish I had some better food for you, but a candy bar's all I have. Unless you'd want me to go get you something from the cafeteria, but… That would take some authority that I just don't have."

"Fine."

"So, you wanna tell me how you ended up here?"

"Isn't that something that you're supposed to know, since you're one of the ones who put me here?"

"I'm just checking your memory. Do you remember?"

"Yea. I remember… She ran and hid, leaving me out in the open. Then they grabbed me."

"Who's 'she'?"

"My mom. She heard noises and took me upstairs to hide, but then they found us and separated us. She ran off crying."

"Your mom, huh. That's gotta do a world of nasty things to your psyche, huh?"

"Yea."

"Okay, this one should be about your size…"

"Okay, so how's your wrist feel now, is the brace too tight? Too loose?"

"No, I'm fine."

"Okay then. Let's take you back to your room, okay?"

"Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why do I have to go back? Please, you've got to get me out of here. You seem like someone who isn't as fucked up as everyone else in here is, please. I don't know what's going to happen to me! You can tell them I need to go see an actual hospital or something, I don't know."

"I'd get in trouble, I'm sorry. I can't compromise my position. I'm sorry, I just can't. Let's take you back to your room, okay?"

[switched back to Chamber#5 microphones]

"Okay, do you need anything else?"

[Jess begins to sob]

"No- hey, look at me. Look at me! You're going to be okay. Just keep your head down and do what they say. I'm sorry that you're in this situation but… well, I was in a similar one just a few years ago and I can't risk loosing how far I've come, alright? If I didn't have to then I'd help you in a heartbeat, but I just– I can't."

[door closing]

Here's what Dr. K has to say:

CWWTR Subject #5, Location: "Red Rose Mansion"

Dr. Liebert managed to wrestle with Natalie in order to see Subject right as meal time, so the meal and camera will be postponed to June 14th, the same day as the introduction of "Bonaparta" and "Chapeck". Liebert's reports indicate that the damage to her wrist is fairly minor but will take time to heal.

Subject and Liebert appeared to have bonded well (audio is still unavailable to me), building social skills for the Subject. This fulfills the purpose of the videos that were meant to be delivered today.

Speaking of the videos, it would appear that the enity known as "NoNdescript aNtagonist" has sent me his video for Subject #5.

Subject is currently attempting to type messages in Typewriter, but is unable due to it being in lockdown for the time being.

The entity known as the "NoNdescript aNtagoNist" has posted two things of interest on the archives, one appears to be a play of some sort and another a transcript of the conversation between Subject and Liebert. The veracity of this transcript is currently unverifiable. While we did not have microphones placed in the infirmary, it is possible that "NoN…" has planted them recently, or has falsified the entire conversation. We will be checking for bugs or microphones over the next few days.


So Liebert is still there but hasn't been one of the ones reaching out to us--so far as we know.
