 		Natas, how'd you get the password? Any hints at least? Or what you've tried that doesn't work?

The "too short to be a god" makes me think of... I don't remember the exact name, damn. Think it was a Norse god maybe? He was a very small in stature god or something?
Sheesh, I need to brush up on my mythology.

Haven't tried the password yet, still kinda stuck on that one phrase. I'll try when I'm more awake.

 		I think I was thinking of Pan?

And, the whole 'stealing babies' makes me immediately think of VFD. [just got done reading Unauthorized Autobiography ] That... would be really epic.

Here's the song I was looking for, which is also part of the Unauthorized Autobiography: The Little Snicket Lad

Already called the idea for a VFD/Lemony Snicket-inspired/based ARG, no stealing, haha!

*Ahem* Sorry, back on topic....

What's up with all the communication errors or shutdowns? I get their point IG but it kinda makes it hard to talk to him OOG. Seems like it only shuts down when I have time to post things. XD -is impatient-

 		new update !
http://lisdead.blogspot.com/2012/02/conditioning.html

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Conditioning
Forgive the somewhat later posting. Things appear to be in motion, and His agents are behaving unusually. My own infiltrators within His forces are being more closely scrutinized. We think He's up to something, but we do not know what.

For now, He leaves as I enter. Just as He lays to sleep, I waken. As He dreams, I work. Perhaps He is protected by the God of Dreams, perhaps so are we all. Whether we are waking or sleeping he may enter our minds to weave the spells that release us from bondage to reality.


nothing on the new password yet tho

 		Compared to his first two puzzles this is dead easy:

He is beginning to sound more like a split personality to me.

EDIT: The post makes me think of the film Fight Club.

Yea re-read comments and posts and you see "it dwells within" kinda thing.

Reminds me of Hitman, I loved that game Laughing but if we are speaking of implants and control that make sense.

He sleeps when I am awake,

 		POST3.doc
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

The fact that He and I come from the same Organization gives me a few advantages. I know how He was trained, I know what things have been done to Him, and what enhancements He may have received. True, He also knows these things, but I have been in the Organization for longer than He has, and I have a deeper understanding of it all. I can predict Him. To an extent.

At least I can take some comfort in the fact that He has been conditioned to an early bedtime, allowing me ease of movement under the cover of darkness. That's one of his Flaws. The Organization can't have a lot of perfectly trained, deadly Agents walking around without drawing suspicion. They train us through behavioral conditioning to have certain Flaws and Vices, making us look more 'human' and throwing our enemies off guard.

It's... not exactly a true compulsion. We can control our Flaws, and speak or act 'normally.' But it's like twiddling one's thumbs or popping chewing gum bubbles. Once you have the habit, you revert to it without noticing. It becomes your 'default' state, and part of your identity. It's cover so deep that it's not even really cover; there have been rumors about Agents going 'native,' but to most the conditioning is normal, even helpful.

He is conditioned to be like a child in every way. It's easy enough to act out now, because he really is a child still. But I've caught our Caretakers sneaking growth inhibitors into His food, and noticed the subtle behavioral training in His lessons. He will look more or less the same as he does now when he is 30, 40, even into older age (should he be allowed to live that long...). And he will act the same. He is well and truly a child at heart. A child with evil intent and a Machiavellian mind, suservient to no one.

I... remember one day, when I was younger. I woke up with a hideously sore throat, and several days missing. My voice was higher pitched, and sounded alien to me. From that day, I was subtly urged into exaggerating every facet of my life. I was punished for dressing plainly, rewarded more and more as I was cowed into accepting my new role. I was turned into an actor of a kind, playing out whatever parts the Organization wished. When I speak all the people around me hear is some shrill, shrieking queen. And that's all they think of me, right up until I get them.

I'd hate the Organization more for it, if it wasn't so damn useful.

 		New Blog Post - "Powers"
http://lisdead.blogspot.com/2012/02/lost-contact-with-infiltration-team-in.html

The post contains 3 YouTube links:

1 - WASP VS SPIDER
- This URL forces the video to start at 16 seconds, which is focused mainly on the tarantula. Also, DetectiveDramatic commented "2" on the video.

2 -Jens Lekman "The opposite of Hallelujah"
- Again, this video force-starts at 1:37 and the lyric is "sister". DetectiveDramatic commented "4" on this video.

3 - Carl Sagan - "A Glorious Dawn"
- This one starts at 23 seconds, and Sagan is "singing" about apple pies and an apple pie is prominently displayed on the table. DetectiveDramatic commented "2" on this video.

I'm guessing the three key words we're looking for in the videos are :
-Spider
-Sister
-Pie

 		Okay thought maybe the 'Jens Lekman' song might telling us to reverse the obvious words, did that and google provided me with his very weird site probably a stretch though:

http://alutnarat.tumblr.com/ - That's Tarantula backwards

http://www.youtube.com/user/alutnarat/feed another possibility.

Urban Dictonary gives this for hajulellah: A shout or song of "I rejoice in the non-existence of God!!

Also thought maybe the password might be science, no joy there. Sagan is Nagas is all about snakes and gods. No joy there either. Definitely harder than the last puzzle. Normally I'm good at spotting the obvious.

I'm confused as to where you get the whole "reverse words" idea from that song.

 		I think your track is probably more likely but in answer to your question, the name of the song is called: Opposite of Hallelujah
