If you take the following out of the crossed letters:

IBIS
PORTCULLIS

you are left with

w e j k a n e m t a n e n w r a s o p e i g v c w m i o s

Which contains a WWW and a COM, also a JPEG

Can't figure out which synonym of debate needs to come out, though. If this is even right.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
www inanimatereason com seek jpg

http://www.inanimatereason.com/seek.jpg

opening the seek.jpg file with a text editor, you'll see "This could be you if you don't mind your P's and Q's"

/me sneaks back out Laughing (hugh kudos to all those who worked out the cryptic crossword!)

I tried taking out "agree" since it actually says "without debate". but on second look, maybe it's just for the rhyme factor and we don't have to start taking anything out until the line that says "So you can find and remove...."

Do we also need to remove an "orderly state"
I checked state slogans...came up empty. But depending on what you do take out, NEATNESS is there....which is an "orderly state" and "tidy"

I too noticed the WWW/COM/JPEG

I also see JAKE

If you enlarge the jpeg it looks like a body lying on a table, maybe covered in cloth? Anyway, looks to me like it's just a threat, no further puzzle to this.

Yeah that makes sense. Sent to Becker as a warning that he's being watched and whomever sent it will lie in wait for him in this "fabric of time and space"?

What about the "This could be you if you don't mind your P's and Q's" inside seek.jpg? Seems rather strange Confused Question

Ahhh yeah....cool.
So "This could be you if you don't mind your Ps and Qs" could be just an added "threat" (or it could mean something, but I don't have a clue...lol)

...can't help it! I'm parinoid!!

It's a warning, sure, but why not just a nice horse head in the bed? Question

....P's and Q's....what is that reference?

...what the heck did the person making 'seek.jpg' use to make this picture? Is it significant?


(I'm good at asking questions, just not at...that other thing ;( )

Here is a more detailed picture based on the changes in the density of the shading.....and the shapes....I guessed what a few things are....i have no idea what the bright red thing on the table is.....this may not be the actual colors of the room....no one has such bad taste Razz

looks to be a naked (butt crack hilighted) person face down (look at the position of the arms).....there seems to be a darker region on his/her head runnning down the bed onto the floor (I guessed blood).....

You can now more clearly see the duvet and pillows.....as well as the lamps and desks.....
