It did..."D" for Damien, even. But why? It was all a mess.

Someone or something - just the Prism itself, probably - is screwing with us in a fresh, brand-new way.

...Do you think its really "screwing around"? Maybe there's something in that note.

Like what?

"Discuss Dreamer" seemed to be the largest part of it, I think.

That's a useless message! We were going to anyway.

Maybe we need to be more overt about it, then, if that's the big message.

And what, have another big meeting with everyone so we can all say "wow, weird," and nothing else?

We can talk all we want but if we don't have any new information we're just gonna go in circles.

...

[The frustration that spikes matches the frustrated noise she lets out.]

We got the Residents where they should be, in their original forms. Maybe speaking more about it might make something like that happen. I don't know.

[ she's valid but his feelings go overly defensive for a second because of who he is as a person. ]

Maybe. We'll see.

Like I said, we'd end up talking about it without the note...

[Hm.]

Though...now that I think about it, that note suggests that whoever made it is watching us, in some capacity.

... But I get the feeling their information is limited.

Well, it isn't as if they can have eyes on us at all times, but...they know a little more than nothing. Maybe the Prism can only let them see a bit at a time.

So what they know is probably based on observation.

Not any kind of... Whatever it was that led to our profiles.

...Where did those profiles come from? Do we know? They even updated for our Residents.

Don't ask me.

[A little dryly:]

You really aren't a thinker, are you, Damien?

Do you have a better answer than that?

The Prism, but...you know. I wonder if those other Residents might be walking around somewhere, too.

[A sigh.]

I'm practically missing my own world, with all that it came with. It's how frustrating this place is.

[ he shrugs, re: residents. who knows. ]

... Yeah, I figure at least a world with crazy things like yours doesn't operate on a weekly murder schedule.

No, it doesn't. Murder just happens.

But hey. Maybe sometimes it doesn't happen?

Every now and then?

[ he hopes???? ]

If you don't have a Stand, yes. If you do...well, I think that puts you at a higher risk than anything. You're practically asking for trouble.

Do people without a Stand just get picked off?

No, not at all. Though they can become collateral damage, being none the wiser. Wrong place, wrong time.
