some inmate won't go to bed


Why won't she?

On an unrelated note, the setting reminds me of a play a friend of mine wrote some time back.

 		Another conversation with Nancy tonight- she seems to reply most at night-time for me. Tried to break down the wall of text. Razz

Quote:
Nancy: 15:12
Me: What will happen at 15:12?
Nancy: It will be 3:12pm wont it?
Me: I guess it will be 3.12pm then. Is the time relevant?
it means nothing time wise to me. Why, does it to you?
Me: Well, I've noticed you've change your time zone. Isn't that enough reason to be curious? (A/N: Its the same time zone as mine now Shocked Shocked )

Nancy: i read something interesting today [myname] Genesis means an origin, creation, or beginning. I had never known what that word had meant...
I suppose with all this free time I have I am learning a lot of new things. I suppose I am getting off the subject though... Just so tired you know...
Me: Are you sleeping properly Nancy? Surely Lavender Meadows must have a place for a quick nap.

Nancy: Oh yes, I have my room. I just... i haven't been able to bring myself to.
Me: Why not go home and sleep then- if you can't make yourself comfortable at Lavender Meadows?
Nancy: Do you think I should... looking at my bed right now... makes me feel pretty sleepy... but i just cant handle the dreams... i dont want to see him again

Me: Don't go to sleep there Nancy!! Go home and get some sleep- get away from Lavender Meadows. Who is he?
Nancy: I cant, we staff live on the property. I don't have a home out of here. Just my modest little room. Its cute though. Whats your favorite color?

Me: Well stay up and talk to me then, its the beginning of the weekend. My favourite colour is pink, whats your favourite color? And who is he? What do you dream about in your sleep?
Nancy: I like pink as well. I was allowed to paint my room pink
when i first started working here. My dreams... I just, dont even... He speaks to me, they dont let him speak but when i sleep, he does.
I dont know why.

Me: Is he someone you know, perhaps a patient? Maybe he needs someone to talk to- like you.
Nancy: He is a patient... a special one... right down the bottom

Me: What do you mean by the bottom, are you talking about underneath Lavender Meadows? Do you know his name? Why is he special? I think you should communicate with him when "they" aren't looking.
Nancy: I cant tell you... All i can say is he is not friendly, I dont think its safe to talk to him though.
He is guarded for a reason.

Me: What does he communicate to you in your dreams? If he's trying to reach out to you, he might be trying to tell you something important.
Nancy: No, its nothing like that. Its not some profound experience. He steps into your memories, picks out the very worst thing and shapes and uses it.
Its like he



TL;DR: Nancy can't sleep properly, lives at Lavender Meadows and there's a guy/patient somewhere who uses her memories against her when she sleeps.
Does anyone have any questions they want me to ask her?

 		Ask her what kind of patients the home accepts. I emailed her but screwed up on that front.

I did get something from her though (used the excuse of a sick relative)

Quote:
Please do Tell mE more about your relatives iLLness. i will need to know more in order to see if sHE is the kind of patient we take here at LavendeR Meadows. If you could inform me of her illness, or aT leased describe her symptOms. i would be happy to preform an aSSeSment.
i hope to hear from you soon and wish both you and your famiLy the vEry bEst.

Uh.. I'm trying to keep talking to poor Nancy so she doesn't have to go to sleep right now. Razz


More updates:
Quote:
Me: Nancy does the special patient have powers, can you remember? Can you remember anything else about him?
Nancy: I'm sorry I can tell you that. Its not safe for either of us.
Me: Its fine, why don't you tell me what happens in your sleep? Or even more about Lavender Meadows- how many patients at a time does it look after?

Nancy: Oh on the main floor we have about twenty two. Maybe a couple less or more. By the end of your rounds they honestly blurr into one person ahaha.
underneath... i don't know really. I am not allowed down there.
Me: Why are you not allowed to go there? If you are unable to, who can go underneath?
Nancy: I am only a nurse and a nurse with a low clearance at that. There are people who can go down there, other nurses, guards, the doctors.

Me: Nancy, are you still feeling sleepy? Perhaps you see a doctor about taking some sleeping medicines to help you sleep properly.
Nancy: your right. Maybe if I take some pills i will be too tired to dream.
Me: Have you already finished working for the day? Or something else I've thought of- have something to wake yourself up if your having sleeping problems. A small bell or a digital alarm clock, maybe?

Nancy: i can get to sleep fine. I have just been scared to becuase of the dreams. Its been three days since I sleeped... between working and staying up all night alone worrying... I feel terrible
Its been nice to have someone to talk to. I dont really fit in with the other nurses here and with those videos that have been coming up... its been so scary, i dont know how they got there, we've never had a youtube channel...

Me: Three days? How have you lasted so long, on coffee? hehe. If you ever need someone to talk to, I'm always an email away. I've seen those youtube videos- what do you think about them?
Nancy: Coffee and well... some other things. T
The perks of working in a hospital. as for the videos... i dont know. They frighten me. Pills, i really dont want to say more then that... It makes me sound terrible.

Me: Even though going to sleep frightens you- I think you need to try and get some more sleep. It's not good to be up straight for three days. Will you tell me what happens in your dreams?
Nancy: Your right, you are defiantly right. I should sleep. I'm going to ask Mallory about it now. Goodnight, thanks for your help and I will tell you about my dreams, hopefully though... I have none.


TL;DR: There is something underneath Lavender Meadows but Nancy doesn't have access. She also gone without sleep for three days.

 		I think 15:12 is a reference to Genesis 15:12:

"And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him"

 		this looks like it could be fun Very Happy

i sent Nancy a note to push a bit more about Mcfallisters Hospital. below is my email and her almost instant reply.

Quote:
Dear Nancy,

I received your email address from a good friend who knows I've been attempting to find out some information about Mcfallisters Hospital. This friend has been in contact with you recently about Lavender Meadows, previously known as Mcfallisters Hospital. My dear Uncle Red was sent to Mcfallisters Hospital for the last 15 years of his life. He was an amazing guy. Always so much fun. Sadly, we never heard from him after he entered Mcfallisters Hospital and I have always wondered why he was sent there and what happened to him. Do you know about Mcfallisters Hospital? What kind of place was it? If you don't have the answers to my questions, could you put me in touch with someone who might know more? I do appreciate any help in this matter.

Sincerely,

Jan

Dear Jan.

I'm actually rather excited you sent me this. Mcfallisters hospital was a nice place. My mother was there for a few months back when i was younger and our father had ran off with another woman. I remember visiting her a couple of times. Me, my brothers and my gran. They had a nice big courtyard with a playground right at the end for kids who grew bored with sitting and talking during visits, my brothers always played on it but I was too busy lavishing my time with mother. I am sad to hear about your uncle, when people are unwell though and on medication they become forgetful and staff organisation was nothing like it is these days. Now days I think i spend most of my day shifts calling people to organize visiting times.

 		New Video is up on the youtube page titled "ding ding ding". Apparently "he" is named Wessen and he left us a present as promised. We have to get it from Nancy.

 		Everytime I think I'm out my curiousity pulls me back in!

Gah, after I lost interest in ARGs when my grandmother died, I thought I was gonna stop. But curiousity's gotten the better of me at the moment and now I'm looking into this one. Consider me to be a watcher for now, maybe a player if an email I sent out bears any fruit.

Not that anyone really cares. I mean, I'm basically unknown for anything good on this forum.

 		I reversed the "s...l...e...e...p" video, and I can't make out any words, just "compartius sleep", yet if I slow it down and do not reverse it, I'm sure I hear "this is their work".

http://farout-rp.com/jamesstuff/sleepwork.wav is my analysis, I speak your way through all the methods I used.

 		sorry about your grandmother, Zobot257. Sad and nice to have you back! this one does spark my interest too > i'm going to play a bit and lurk more.

thanks for the heads up on the new vid, aquarius904!

and interesting, jameskmonger. "compartius" comes from a spanish word compartir meaning "to share".. shared sleep.

Even with your analysis, I'm still hearing "Nowhere to Sleep". Which could mean either A) You can't sleep anywhere safely. He can get you anywhere. or B) He can't find anywhere that he is able to sleep. Either way, it's damn interesting.

No problem! Very Happy

More convo with Nancy:

Quote:
Me: Wessen said he left a present with you?

Nancy: I should never of went to bed... Things got so much more worse today. The head of my ward somehow came across that youtube page.
he thinks I have something to do with it. Even worse they found graffiti on the wall near the door that leads you down.
I'm positive that everyone thinks it was me...

I dont know any presents, nothings been left with me.

Me: What did the graffiti say? Did he enter your dream?

Nancy: i dont know it was long, letters and numbers... I didnt understand it, it made no sense.
and no he didn't, the only good thing to come from this is that with enough sleeping pills, he seems to not visit..

Me: Well, that's good. At least you got some sleep and you know how to keep him out now. Is there anyway for you to get a pic of the graffiti?

Nancy: good lord no. No camera's are allowed here. However I guess i could go copy it down, before its washed off. Do you think I should?

Me: Yes! Most definitely. Copy it and send it this way and I'll see what I can make of it. Thank you.

Nancy: Okay, I will do that right now.

Me: Awesome. We'll see what we can make of this.

Nancy: 01111001011011110111010101110111011000010110111001110100011101000110111101110100011000010110110001101011011000100110100101100111
gnyxgbgurovtznaqbjafgnvef
UnqyrlqbgZnwbef

I think thats what it was, I had to do it quick before a guard saw me... Im not very liked around here anymore...

Me: Perfect. Thank you. I'll take a crack at this and let you know what I find.


Obviously the first part is Binary and the next two lines are ROT13.

It translates to:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
youwanttotalkbig
talktothebigmandownstairs
HadleydotMajors


Nancy has no idea what it means.

It doesnt need a website, I cannot tell you who the boss is. Know though that this place is no normal hospital. It is ran by no normal person.
I know nothing about a present, I dont understand why these videos keep coming up and I have no idea who Wesson is, appart from the fact that he might be the person in the dreams i have been having.


All i know is i shouldnt of slept... things have gotten worst.
I dono whats up with the freeky date its like 9 hours from now.
