Mack,

You all right? Our pal from last night was asking about you, too. Let me know as soon as you see this note.

I know I keep asking this, but any sign of a guy named Buzz? Can his roommate tell me if he's still sleeping a lot?

Actually, while I'm at it, does anyone know what happens when someone blacks out for awhile? Does it mean anything?

Thanks.

[ippo]

Yes! Don't worry, I am fine!

Are you okay? Is he?

- Ippo

[pullstrung.livejournal.com]

Yeah. He's kind of freaked out by what's happened, obviously, but we're both okay. Thanks for asking.

By the way, do you need someone to stick with later?

- Woody

the point, it has been missed

[ippo]

Really? [woobie face growing woobier.]

Yes, please! I don't always find people to sit with during the day! I'd like company!

- Ippo

[pullstrung.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah, really! I wouldn't have asked if I didn't meant it.

...And I meant later later. You know, when things get

[Does he really have to spell this out for you, Mack. :|]

You know.

[ippo]

Ohhhh! Sorry! I got... confused...

Yes, that sounds good! Where should we meet?

The usual? [aka smacking into each other in terror.]

[pullstrung.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you know where my room is now, so maybe in the large hallway outside of that block?

[norainu]

Well, if you're me, it means you wake up, it's four weeks later, and they've done fucking brain surgery on you or some shit.

[pullstrung.livejournal.com]

WHAT??

(OH GOD THAT ICON I'M DYYYYYIIIIIING)

[norainu]

You heard me. WEEKS.

(LOL he is very expressive)

[pullstrung.livejournal.com]

Okay, okay, okay. Wait. So let me get this straight. You were here. In Landel's. Then you woke up one day.

And it was seriously four weeks later.

(can't... breathe...)

[norainu]

Well, it was one night. Here. When I got done over by four nurses. And then yeah. Four weeks ago. And then I woke up last night. And my vision ain't working right

[pullstrung.livejournal.com]

And what do you mean by done over, exactly?

[norainu]

Let's just say everyone thought I was dead.

[pullstrung.livejournal.com]

You're saying the nurses did something to you that made everyone think you were dead? This...wasn't during the day, was it?

[norainu]

At night.

[pullstrung.livejournal.com]

[No one told him the nurses attack at night, WHAT IS THIS.]

Oh, good! I was starting to wonder if I needed to worry about someone serving up a nice dish of scalpel surprise during lunch.

(strike illegible)

[norainu]

No, everything is hunky dory happy shiny horseshit during the day, don't worry about that. Just hope you don't get Dr Just don't cross paths with them at night. They're stronger than they look.

[lighthearted]

Usually if someone starts sleeping a lot, it means that they might be disappearing soon.

I'm sorry, Woody.

[pullstrung.livejournal.com]

[Ink. Blot.]

Hold on. What does "disappear" mean, anyway? No one just vanishes into thin air!

[lighthearted]

No, they're just taken out of this place and... well, it's kind of bad. Something's done to them so that they think that they're someone else!

[strike-outs hastily crossed out and mostly illegible because he thought better of it]

[pullstrung.livejournal.com]

Oh, great, because that's exactly what he

They think they're someone else while they're outside of here, you mean??

[lighthearted]

You know that name that the nurses call you by? They think they're that person.

[CRYING he knows he shouldn't respond to this on principle but...he's going to]

[tightsofmight]

What does Buzz look like? I'll keep an eye out.

And if you're blacking out for a while, it could be anything. Sometimes you just fall asleep and you don't know why. Make sure you have someone that will look for you if you start falling asleep even more, all right?

[pullstrung.livejournal.com]

Blond hair, blue eyes, kind of short. Probably sticks out like a sore thumb in this place, so he shouldn't be hard to recognize if you bump into him.

And [pen taps] that doesn't sound reassuring. At all. But thanks for the tip, I guess. I'll keep it in mind.

[hairraising]

My first roommate here started sleeping through dinner shifts the day after I got here. After a few days, I was moved rooms, and she was just gone. Her name was Lenalee.

- Rapunzel

[pullstrung.livejournal.com]

Just...gone? The nurses didn't say anything to you about why?

[Inkblot, as if he's considering whether to add something or not.]

And that's supposed to be kind of like a code name, right?

[hairraising]

Yeah, I was just led down a different hall one day and left in a new room before I could get the soldi escort to tell me what happened to her.

[Oops, Woody. You asked that question at exactly the wrong time.]

Okay what is it about my name? Is it that weird? Why does everyone act like it can't really be my name?! Just today I was explaining the Institute to someone and they told me that my name was the least believable thing I told them!
