 		To All Non-Butterfly Fans of CNS
We need your help
Hey guys, I know I don't post here much, forums aren't really my thing, but due to recent events, I'd like to call out to you guys personally. I'm the butterfly Apollo, if you don't know me. But this message is for specifically non-butterflies.

We need you. Natalie needs you. Desperately. If you saw that last video, I'm sure you saw how Natalie went to that weird dark foresty place and then just kinda backed up into the pitch black. She's stuck in there, and lost. Roivas is trying to find her, but she needs help. More help than us chat regulars are able to give her.

Which means we come to you, you lovely people. It's okay if you don't want to get deeply involved in the series permanently. That's fine, you don't have to. All we ask is that you do this one thing to help Caught and Natalie not die, and then you can go back to casually observing. No pressure, you don't need to "pick a side," you don't need to come into chat, you don't even need to talk to any of us if you don't want to.

This is all we need: Find 10 flowers, as many varieties as possible (If you can't find 10 different flowers, that's ok. It'll still work with 10 of the same kind, but it's stronger if there are different types). Burn them to ashes (I suggest drying them out first, though. It's a lot easier to burn when they're dry). Rub the ashes on your hands. Film all of this (or at the very least take photographs of each step, but filming is better if you can), and show your ashy hands to the camera. Then upload it to youtube, tag "RoivasSevil", "CaughtNotSleeping", and/or send a link of it to Roivas' channel. That's it. You don't have to say anything, you don't have to talk to anyone, and you can go right back to lurking when it's done if you want to.

What this will do is give Roivas enough power to learn how to navigate that dark place and find Natalie and bring her back out. And maybe, someday, if this works, she'll be able to help get Caught back to normal, too.

We only have a couple weeks of window in which this will count, though, so if you decide you'd like to help, please do this soon. Like maybe this weekend or early next week at the latest if you can. The more people who are able to do this, the stronger Roivas will be, and the better chance she has at saving Natalie. Please remember that this is an ARG, and it is entirely possible to lose, so if we don't hit whatever magical secret quota of flower rituals there is, she could very well be stuck there forever. This isn't like some of the other series where they just find a way to put it back on track if viewers do the wrong thing. They'll let our mistakes play out.

Please, if it's at all possible, help us out here. We don't want Caught and Natalie to die. But we can't do this alone. This is in no way a commitment on your part. This can be the only thing you ever do for this game if you want it to be. But if you can help out at all, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, all, so much.

If you choose to do this, I have some safety tips here: http://iammissanna.tumblr.com/post/36690750011/flower-burning-safety-again

 		Something came into the chat. We're not sure what, exactly.

These are Thyodamas' videos that the screenshots were taken from.

that was a mistake on my part.

and no. we have no firm idea...plenty of theories but nothing solid. it could merely be echoes of Mirrors eating her memories (that it currently mistakes videos for). It could be SadPuppet's way of talking to us. It could even be a new Dark Place Denizen entirely.

 		Other theories that have been kicking around are Roivas, Natalie, or Caught calling out subconsciously for help, Mirrors attempting to talk to us but not being able to, or I think it may also be possible that it's Mirrors trying to show us what it's doing to someone (Roivas, Natalie, Thyodamas, whoever).

Also, we've managed to get a few people to help out with the flower burning thing, but we still need a lot more. If you're still unclear on how it works or whatever, this is my video of it so you can see the process:



YouTube: Link

Especially if that weird visit was Natalie, Caught, or Roivas, we really really need to get them out of there and away from Mirrors. But we can only do that with your help. Those of us who are normally really involved in this are not enough this time. We need you. All of you. It's alright if you don't want to do anything more than this, or if you do want to get more involved at some point maybe, or whatever. This won't tie you to anything, this won't make it so you can't do other things in the future, all this will do is help Roivas save Natalie.

It is possible to fail, here, so please, we really need your help. Thanks a bunch, guys! <3

I think that if you fill in the blanks, it says "But she was only trying to help her friends".

 		Well, it took me a few days to do during my spare time but I went through this series again and this time did it properly by reading the chat logs and watching certain Butterfly videos inbetween the regular channel entries.

I knew I had to make time for this series again when I saw people yelling something about mirrors and I was yelling back, wut?
So confirmation, you really CANNOT skim the chat logs as some of them are crucial chapter points in the CaughtNotSleeping storyline! Laughing

Anyway, reading the lastest log and...oh. Oh dear. I'm getting the feeling that the Butterflies spent too long discussing the deal with The Mirrors and out of impatience, the creature has made a direct threat towards the Unknown. Maybe she's about to relay some information about the Showtime Killer that Mirrors doesn't want known just yet?

 		The butterfly that was confronted with the deal didn't fully understand what the deal was even about, by the sounds of it. A lot of us arent too happy with the result, but we must also keep in mind that Mirrors has been trying to turn us again Loxura from the start...and they're fans of lying.

Though I'm fairly annoyed at the way that deal turned out xD


And we were wondering similar stuff. the package, when she got it, had been tampered with...so it could be showtime, since mirrors doesnt really have too much presence on our plane.

 		Sadly things are never this simple for Caught, Natalie or Roivas but I can dream!

 		When you feel well enough, I'm sure it would still be very helpful. Flower burning seems to be becoming a fairly regular power source for Roivas, and with her currently attempting to rescue/avenge unknown (depending on how optimistic you are regarding this situation), and Natalie and Caught both still stuck in the Dark Place, I think she could use all the help she can get. Burning flowers certainly couldn't hurt the current situation.

Thank you to anyone and everyone who has done so already, or is planning to in the near future. It's greatly appreciated.

Also, that comic is epic as heck. <3
