[19:46] swordmentor: Yup.
[19:46] zomigodfish: ok so explain this to me again?
[19:46] zomigodfish: you got someone's email, so you're randomly IMing me?
[19:46] swordmentor: Well, I got an email from a Dangerous McJones.
[19:46] swordmentor: I'll send it over, one sec.
[19:47] swordmentor: Aim for zomigodfish to save her (and the world, while you're at it).

I'm your guide, Danger McJones.

The Badness is coming. You can stop it.

[19:47] zomigodfish: sounds like spam
[19:47] zomigodfish: sorry can't help you
[19:47] swordmentor: I doubt it. But thanks anyways. Just one question.
[19:47] swordmentor: Do you know somebody named...Grace?
[19:47] zomigodfish: I'm Grace
[19:47] swordmentor: Ah.
[19:47] zomigodfish: wtf man
[19:48] swordmentor: Well.... I asked This dangerous McJones character who he was, and he sent me binary ( you know what binary is, right?) Which translates to grace.
[19:49] zomigodfish: wait he said he's me?
[19:49] swordmentor: Well...not directly.
[19:50] swordmentor: Actually, my bad.
[19:50] swordmentor: He said you were Grace. I'm sorry, my memory sucks.
[19:50] zomigodfish: ok, this is all fascinating and everything
[19:50] zomigodfish: but
[19:50] zomigodfish: uh
[19:50] swordmentor: Don't worry, not a telemarketer. Not trying to sell you anything.
[19:50] zomigodfish: well thats good i guess
[19:51] swordmentor: Let's just say....I'm a detective. I help people with problems. Usually I get anonymous tips. I take all my mail seriously.
[19:52] zomigodfish: oh
[19:52] zomigodfish: well, thanks for your concern
[19:52] zomigodfish: but seriously
[19:52] zomigodfish: nothing going on
[19:53] swordmentor: In this case, it's more of Mr. ....McJones's problem I'm investigating. Anyways, thank you for your time. Have a good day. If anything comes up, PLEASE contact me.
[19:53] zomigodfish: sure
[19:53] zomigodfish: if i need you
[19:53] zomigodfish: but i'm sure i'll be fine

It actually does. Send it through binary to ascii a couple of times and you end up with 'grace.'

Yup. I meant that when I first sent it through Binary, it came back as Binary, which confused me. =P

She's going somewhere?

 		New Away Message
8/14 7:01 CST
Her current away message is:

Quote:
He woke up from dreaming and put on his shoes
Started making his way past two in the morning
He hasn't been sober for days

Leaning now into the breeze
Remembering Sunday, he falls to his knees
They had breakfast together
But two eggs don't last
Like the feeling of what he needs

Now this place seems familiar to him
She pulled on his hand with a devilish grin
She led him upstairs, she led him upstairs
Left him dying to get in

Forgive me, I'm trying to find
My calling, I'm calling at night
I don't mean to be a bother,
But have you seen this girl?
She's been running through my dreams
And it's driving me crazy, it seems


------

This is a song by ATL called Remembering Sunday. She left off the last line "I'm going to ask her to marry me" from the last stanza. Full lyrics are here: http://www.albumrankings.com/showSong.php?song_id=893108[/url]

Why thank you.

And it seems that song lyrics might factor into our understanding of this girl.

In my convo with her, she told me that if I have any questions about ATL, I can ask her.... I'm trying to think of something to ask so I can strike up another convo and ask her where she's headed

I'm just going to be REALLY blunt about it. I've already told her I suck at interpersonal communication =P

Trying to make contact as well. I was hoping the Badass was coming when I got the email, but alas it is the Badness.

Also the buddy info says:

Quote:
I never told a lie
And that makes me a liar
I never made a bet
But we gamble with desire
I never lit a match
With intent to start a FIRE
But recently the FLAMES
Are spinning OUT OF CONTROLLLLL


<3 Jake


by the way, "FLAMES" is in a red font, so it stands out from the rest of the lyrics.
