( Alex looks refreshed. Which does not seem like that should be anyone's present normal, but she had a little help for feeling clear headed and then some, so she's doing better than she would have coming out of the last two weeks. She also waves to the camera, and then holds up a piece of paper with writing on one side. Slowly, she turns it over to show the back side is covered in mathematical equations. )

Hey everyone, it's Alex again. Scylla talked with me briefly right before the fog started clearing up. Mostly I wanted to bring up the journal page he left with me. I can read it out loud for people, just ask, but he said there's a total of nine more of these in Etraya right now. Anyone else get one? What he and Aurora can't talk about directly because of a specific curse on what they're allowed to say can probably be guessed at through these entries.

( Holding that mathematical side closer to the 'camera' such as it is, she adds: )

So who here are our math wizards? He said the mathematics explains what's going on, and his challenge was us looking for a solution to the whole problem. I don't think he actually thinks we will, which kind of makes me want to all the more.

( Another pause. )

If you have questions about what else we talked about, you can ask that too.

/Or that's what she says, anyway. I don't trust that bitch, Alex dear, not in a billion years. Left to where, even.

Yeah, fuck this. I'm gonna take a look at some stuff./

/Yeah, I don't think she's actively working against us, but the stuff she can't say is getting more and more difficult to work with because it's... there? Not said? It's frustrating. Like playing twenty questions but you're not sure if you're remotely in the right part of Earth with your questions.

Please do! Also if you want to poke around my head for anything Scylla said you can, I'm not sure how your stuff works in all details but if that's one of the ways, I don't mind./

/I can't debunk her, I can't trust her. It's that simple. 'Can't' to me sounds just like 'won't' in this case. Why did she have to be a hologram? Telepath-phobic. Either way, what did she tell you she can't tell you? That might help me with what to look.

I'm going to copy and paste your memories of him to me, alright? It won't hurt. Thanks./

/Fair enough, I won't tell people to do what doesn't make sense to them. It's a mix of things, Accelerator just heard back that she can't say where the other pages are, but to be fair, Scylla might not have told her. Uh... she can't talk directly about how she and Scylla know each other. I think there's more talking around on her post that might help figure that out? But not sure. I haven't read it all yet myself, I was trying to get this out to people too.

Sounds good! If you want you can try to pull the memories from when he projected himself into my mind too, whatever you think's useful. You'll want to skip everything else in the fog though. Not fun stuff. I got pulled into a lot of Real places that... yeah. Not fun stuff./

/I'm gonna look. I can tell you I scanned down all of Etraya down to bits, so he's not here.

... He's a telepath? This just got really fucking delicious. I'm not gonna look at your fog stuff, so hold for a second.

... Wow, damn, he's kind of cute?/

/Yeah... he did say he was leaving. So he did what he said on that, at least.

I guess? He was playing with my perception at least, and we spoke, so he was in my head to that extent. It's not something he likes to do often, but you see that, it was in our conversation.

I know! I tried to explain that, and Clea got a pretty good portrait drawn of him in the days before everything went to fog./
