Hey... everyone. It's Keith.

So a couple things. I guess.

First. Someone brought it up already I think. A while back, but people are going missing. I know it's happened at least a couple times. Not anyone I ever really met, but one guy I was assigned to as a sparring partner, but I couldn't find him. It really seems like he's gone. Even his code has been struck from the network. Which seems pretty deliberate.

Is there anyone else?

If people are disappearing, or wandering off and getting hurt or... worse... I guess most people probably have friends to look out after them. Maybe not everyone though.

But even so, if people are disappearing and none of us know how or why. I think that's something we should probably at least think about and what it means for the rest of us.


Second. So I guess it's a little easier now that there are some colors to help remember, but the whole username code thing is confusing in keeping track of who is who. At least it is for me.

If it were voluntary, what do people think about putting together some sort of directory? Something we could keep updated and search by name and/or code.

It might help us keep track of people too.

And... If people do think it's worth pursuing, I'd be really grateful if anyone better at computers than me wants to help making it user friendly.

EDIT: And apparently some people are turning into statues. Which sounds horrifying. Anyone have info on this? Do we know how to reverse it?

shes from home
fuck
where is her statue at?

[lonered]

Izuku just said they made her comfortable. I don't know where she is though. I doubt it's easy to move a statue. May not be safe to either.

[parodeity]

wtf
i need to find out where i guess because
that
well were not like bffs but i should check in

#3630FF

[messianic]

[oh yeah sup]

She's where I live, Dave. We're housemates.

[parodeity]

do you mind if i come over?

[messianic]

Go ahead. I'll give you directions.

[parodeity]

lemme grab egbert and well be right there

[messianic]

Got it. I'll be here.

[lonered]

Looks like you got your info on that.

But yeah. I mean, important to check up on folks you know.

And like, not to bug you about stupid details when you've got a friend in a situation, but I have a question. Did you talk to her on the network at all? If you did, what does her username look like? Is it still showing as normal?

[parodeity]

its still showing as normal for me
shes #005682

[lonered]

Somehow I think that's a good sign.

The guy who's gone, his username is just crossed out. Like it doesn't exist anymore.

So maybe we can find someone who can help your friend out. There must be some way to reverse it.

[parodeity]

who was the guy who was here and isnt now

[lonered]

Akihiko. His network ID was #DB1C1C

Like I said never got to meet him.

[parodeity]

same here
or the name doesnt sound familiar anyway

[lonered]

There might be others too. If someone was the type to keep to themselves, and didn't have any friends from their home here...

[So he's unknowingly describing himself except he's been too keyed up to keep to himself since he got here honestly.]

We might never know they were here and disappeared, or at least not discover it for a while.

[parodeity]

so we absolutely need a list of ppl here probably

[lonered]

Yeah. It seems like the sort of thing that might be useful for more than just convenience after all.

[parodeity]

honestly a living residence directory might not be bad either
as long as we are censusing

[lonered]

Yeah. Like one of those things they used to have back in my world like ages ago. A uh... phone book? Yeah. A phone book.

[parodeity]

congrats that is in fact the word
tho mostly people use them as doorstoppers and shit as near as i can tell

[lonered]

They don't make them in my world anymore. Sometimes you seem them in old movies.

But here it could be useful.

[parodeity]

so what do you have instead
just electronic ones
?

[lonered]

Yeah. If you want to look someone up, you search them on the net. Makes more sense than printing something out, right? Because people change contact info all the time.

[parodeity]

honestly that sounds way easier
but alas i am a child of the era of lets make things randomly hard on ourselves apparently

[lonered]

Sounds like a great era.

Not that we're exactly a paragon of having things figured out.
