The Flame
Monday, January 16 2006, 06:27 PM

First off, I'd like to thank everyone for their emails - I appreciate the support and words of caution, and I will be doing everything I can to make sure I'll get back home in one piece after the meeting at Gillit Road. I'm sure you already know this, but the first snowfall - and the Ceremony of the Kindling of the Flame - was last Tuesday, so I'll be heading there, on my own, tomorrow.

I've been feeling a bit tense about the whole thing lately. I had a little grace period after making up my mind on the Mobius Strip, but after the snowfall, I've found it difficult to keep my mind off the meeting. I'm pretty sure Miranda noticed and was getting a bit worried, so I suggested going away for the weekend up north. I still haven't told her about Gillit Road - I just don't want to involve her, and she'd probably want to come along anyway, which would be dangerous. Anyway, after speaking to Sente, I left work an hour early on Friday to beat the rush, and then met up with Miranda (who'd done the same) and then took one of the trains up from the new concourse at Grand Frederik's.

We stayed at a small hotel in the country that I read about on my key somewhere and basically holed up inside, playing board games and drinking mulled wine. We tried going out for a run on Sunday but it was just too cold - to be honest, I didn't want to hurt myself on the ice either, not so soon before Gillit Road. I'm not sure whether I've mentioned it before, but Miranda really is an excellent runner - she's done the Polygon Marathon twice and unusually is a fairly good sprinter as well.

So, I managed to unwind a little over the weekend and I think Miranda was feeling a bit happier about everything by the time we got back on Sunday evening - certainly less concerned about me. Of course, on arriving back at Grand Frederik's, no sooner did I change my presence status on my key did a message from Violet come through telling me that Cymbalisty had died. She seemed to be pretty distraught, and not just because she didn't get the last page of the Granier diary either. I spent a few minutes calming her down, and then took Miranda home, who was obviously also quite upset as well. What fun. I suspect they'll both be out of sorts for a while. I suppose that's another reason to stay safe tomorrow night - I wouldn't want to worry them even more...

 		I guess Kurt really is smitten with Miranda.

Hmm. Maybe Cymbalisty's suicide was something else entirely...

Depression about losing Miranda to Kurt, making him snap and kill himself?
He was showing quite the interest in her, and this was the weekend she was away with another man...

Perhaps the woven webs are merely unrequited love...
...or assassin ninjas? Laughing

 		ummm it also gives her a handy alibi to her whereabouts when Cymbalisty died.....which leaves Jason as a major suspect.

i'm also guessing the case file will land on the desk of Perplex City's finest helena frye?

Interesting spec.... What if this is the topic of conversation that Kurt is meant to overhear tomorrow night? That would certainly be damning evidence against Ms. Frye.

Of course if that turned out to be true it would mean that whoever recorded the message on Viard's CD for us knew more than 2 months in advance when this was going to happen. That would be VERY disturbing.

 		I'm thinking that Kurt means "after speaking to Sente" in terms of "Hey Sente, dude, I'm taking my new hawt young chick off for the weekend. I'm gonna cut out of here an hour early to beat the traffic. Yo shizzle?" Or however it is that you youngsters talk these days Wink - rather than "Ah, Sente, what do you think of this odd "Third Power" plot that the Earthers have uncovered, and want me to go along to some clandestine meeting to spy on"...I blooming well hope so at least.
