 		I think we're going to get hit with a major event pretty shortly, one that can't be stopped right now no matter what we do. And what would we say to them about these notes? There's no way they would've released this information if we could break everything. But after that happens, we have got to remember all of this and pick up the pieces and move from that point on to try and alter the cycle - and that's when we go through all the notes with them.

You're right. The picture is upside down.

EDIT: Or rather if you turn the picture upside down it is 5/7

 		OK, whoawhoawhoa. I literally don't have enough time to read through the entire thread because I need to go soon, but this new box is an awesome find, and I need to know what's so bad about the revelations here. Put it in layman's terms. Shocked With pop-up-book pictures. Been away a while.

 		O....M....G Embarassed

I feel like a jackass now.

Lack of sleep is my excuse...yeah, that's the ticket.

Good catch. I was swearing to myself that it HAD to be LYN and never gave it another thought. Ok, moving on. (I will fix it in the Flickr)

Holy butts, Lookbehindyou. Just...whoah.

Quick question before I read through the previous pages of this thread (sorry if it's been asked before) - are you sure it's "Lyn" on the top and not "Lin" or "Linnie"? It's just, the only time I've seen the name spelled that way around here is when I'm referencing myself, and it's kind of freaking me out a little to ponder the implications of my name being on this thing.

...God, I sound so self-centered *slaps self* I'm not trying to be, honest, I'm just kind of paranoid o___o There is probably some really obvious explanation for this that I'm missing D8


See, it's probably 5/7. Even if it was Lyn, Jessalyn's a better bet. *pats*

This is...oh, god, this is terrible. I think we must be able to break the cycle, though, because why else would they even tell us?

Just some random thoughts: "No longer defining the two within" is an odd line. Does it mean that Evan and HABIT will somehow blend together? Can that even happen? Defection is also an interesting word - typically I believe it would imply defection to the opposite side. Followed as it is by self-immolation, however...perhaps HABIT will gain control and cause Evan to hurt one of his friends, at which point he will suicide to prevent it happening again?

Swallowing Justice's sword doesn't sound very stabb-y to me. It sounds almost ritualistic. I don't even know what to think about that. At least Jeff's prophesied fate seems fairly straightforward. As for Steph, this is a long shot, but maybe she's meant to be represented by one of the other characters in the play? It's strange that she doesn't appear in the writing, though - she clearly appears to be part of the cycle. But I really don't believe they would give away their plot so easily: we can break the cycle, or at least parts of it.

I mean to run by the library and grab a copy tomorrow, but it looks like the same edition is available here on Google Books, for anyone who's interested.

 		To me, the Voyeur lines read as though Vince, who appears neutral and passive, has actually been "busy beneath" - scheming against the others. At which point he would have to eventually "swallow justice's sword," and die at the hands of one of the others.

The Firebrand stuff for Evan seems pretty straightforward but I think fish has a theory which may blow the lid off of it. And the Guardian (Jeff) has lost his heart (Jessa) and may lose his blood (Alex) before challenging a god.

Ahh! Don't feel bad *gives hugs*. I facepalmed at myself when I noticed it was just upside down, ngl. Took a minute. Embarassed

Regardless of anything, jumping on the OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR DOING ALL OF THIS. The pics and everything are absolutely amazing. <3

 		What if Vince and Jessa were working together, and she was cheating on Jeff with Vince? She could very well be Habit or involved somehow. It would explain the unattainable companion and why Vince would be conspiring against the others. Evan would be loyal to Jeff no doubt about it and the line of "his loss blinds him" makes me think this is possible too.

Vince is just watching them implode after they set things up. What was it Jessa told the camera in the nature walk video about them when she had it. It was like she was addressing US. Again could be more random crazy thoughts or maybe I'm onto something.

Hmm, I dunno. I think the voyeur is us.

I don't follow Angorachat at all... could someone explain the theory? Please?

qaqa, reading your thoughts on the Voyeur actually makes me sad. Why would he be scheming against them? To accomplish what? *pauses* No, really. This is going to not let me sleep.

Hmm. Suddenly I want to watch the Morse Videos again.

 		Well, I ain't eatin' Justice's sword! My gag reflex is shit.

noskirt, I really couldn't say what his reasons are yet, we'll have to see, unless we're totally wrong about Vince. We are TREEING OUT

 		Considering the Ark video and the hidden videos, it seems like Vince does NOT want the cycle to be broken. He believes it can only be bested if they follow it to the letter, which is why he was saying they had to keep going. Random thought that will probably mean nothing.

 		Hmm, definitely got to agree with the voyeur = Vince theory. The line on that page just reminds me way too much of... what was it, the first morse video? When he was convincing Jeff not to give up on the videos.

It just seems like it can't be the viewers considering the text/tweets make a point of pointing out that we're in for the ride too, not just them. Considering the re-visit to the sinking vessel line. So if we were any of the three titles it would be kind of redundant, imo.

I'm probably making zero sense right now. *goes back to shadows*
