Happy New Years, users.

I'll cut to the chase; the barrier we instilled a few months ago is decaying quickly and we're sorting through the new data as fast as we can. This barrier was originally designed to contain a rogue error. There are several of you who have taken care of this issue and from here we will handle the rest...thank you. The influx of data will help us decode our next steps.

As mentioned, we've spent December tracing several magical sources that are coming up in our readings. We're doing the best we can to trace Clarence--Mr. Vanderweele, and corral the effects he's altering in the city. I believe we're ready to tear down the firewall and begin exploring further. If our information is correct, we're really breaking the boundaries of the layers we've discovered lately! It's exciting, don't you think?

The only information I can offer is that we will need you to be strong no matter what happens. We believe things have changed outside of security measures we've set in place, though we will need more data to understand the best way to stabilize the city from his control. We understand if you cannot and do not wish to help, but please know we're doing everything we can.

Please take care.

yeah but the arm isn't like TOTALLY fantasy
it's just a really fancy prosthetic
a superstrong one i can control remotely but still just a prosthetic
prosthetics are totally normal

Now that we're on the topic of arms, how did your other self loose it?

it got blown off when i died trying to disarm a launched missile

[ If that sounds familiar to Derek, that's because it is--it's more or less the exact scenario they experienced in one of those shared dreams several months back. ]

Wait... THAT'S HOW?

[As if Derek would forget THAT dream!]

Wasn't I stuck in a dream like that? WE DIED!

oh yeah
well cool you got to witness my death firsthand
more or less anyway, i don't think it went exactly like the dream
but tell me--did i at least look cool?

Cool in a tragic way I suppose.

I don't like dying in my dreams dude.

i'm guessing you DON'T dream about dying a lot, then

Me dying? No, thank goodness. You?
