So this is causing some controversy over at the wiki with people arguing that this can't be HABIT because of the weird diction and internet-speak instead of his usual smooth patter. We're pretty certain this IS HABIT right?


Who else could it be though? What would anyone/anything else have to gain from pretending to be HABIT?


What, you've never heard of a HABITual liar? Wink

But yeah, this pretty much has to be HABIT. It's awfully late in the game to be introducing new entities, and old HABbo has pretty much laid claim to the all-caps thing. Maybe he just talks prettier when he's inside Steph or something.


LOL.

Yeah it would be strange. Maybe during co-HABITation the host person can have a degree of control under the right/specific circumstances? IDK.

Does it strike anyone else odd that he's messing with Steph? Or am I trying to read into something that isn't there?

Now, this could be HABIT taunting us, knowing we've decided not to intervene, or it could be a clue that we're supposed to push Evan over the edge to move into the next phase of the plot. Thoughts?


My only hesitation with pushing Evan-or anyone in the group, for that matter- is that we might end up causing all the bad stuff we think might happen. It is certainly something to think about.

This. I say we leave off and give the boys space. They know where to find us. We are not going to be the instigators of the fall.

I've started wondering if the poster might not be Steph but Evan. It seems plausible to me that HABIT might start picking up some of the host's personality and stylistic quirks after a long enough period of inHABITation. Like baking soda in a refrigerator, you know? That would explain why he's been less eloquent in the CYSTW posts.

I think you're exactly right, but I'm starting to wonder if that might not be our intended role at this point in the game. A "everybody will get some blood on their hands before it's over" sort of thing.

Of course, even if that is our role, I'm sure they have a contingency plan if we fail to follow through. We just might not unlock all the achievements. Wink

I am not going to push Evan over the edge. We've tried to reach out to him, now I feel I have to wait and see how he responds. I think HABIT may be playing with us as much as them - expecting us to run to the guys with the same suspicions. We've made our thoughts clear in as kind and supportive a way as we can. I wouldn't know where to begin with writing to EMH or to Evan now that wouldn't simply muddy the waters or needlessly heighten the situation.

I'm open to suggestions.

I believe that it is Habit. As for the change in typing, he could just be messing with us. Or maybe he was never using Evan for the Trials. The whole "Evan got a computer" may have been a red herring.

Can someone more regularly in touch with the boys ask if we can see Steph? We haven't actually heard from her since this mess started. I mean, if something was really seriously wrong then we would have heard about it, but it'd certainly make me feel better to lay eyes on her, you know? It's her blog and all that's been hacked.

It's not like HABIT hasn't changed his "diction" before.

As far as it not being HABIT, I seem to remember him tweeting about someone faking to be him in Angora Chat. If someone was doing the same here, I'd imagine a similar response.

I think a "Is everyone okay" email is still kosher in this instance.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Regardless of who inHABITS who,
there has to be a reason why HABIT is now choosing to taunt via CYSTW. Now that school is over, I'd suggest more of a commune at Chez Jeff or Vince until whatever is going on..is resolved.

The problem there, Ouro, is that there were people pranking and coming in Angora as HABIT. This is different, as it's an IG source rather than a OOG one.

We need to contact the boys.

Also, I'm pretty sure Steph's is still at Evan's house.

There maybe another way of how he got on there.

Right.

But one would expect a consistent response, since this is totally happening in real life

So did anyone actually try actually asking Damsel (gotta love the Ask Box) regarding these two videos, uncharacteristic typing, and suchness?

I don't know that anyone has. All I know is what Evan told me - that she was terrified that HABIT had commandeered her account.

When did he tell such? (sorry, I've been fairly indifferent to the going-ons here)

As for talking to her, I already asked her something. If anyone has a chance of being replied by Damsel it's most certainly me. Of course, if this IS HABIT than who know's if I'm to get any kind of reply.
