Incident Report: On the Move

-
.... It's a bit surreal. As I type this.

With all of the chaos going on outside.

It's quiet where I am.

Been on the run for.. I don't know?

Since I managed to leave No Man's Land two days ago.

My suitcase took a knife for me. Shame.

I liked that suitcase. But, bonus: free knife.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm hiding out somewhere for now. Just though I'd check in, hope Jack is reading my posts.

Probably dealing with her own mess right now, knowing her.

I don't know who that Advocate guy was. Seems like some sort of troublemaker, but that's  not my business.

I need to get to Red.

To Lilith.

I guess in a way, I'm going home.

Red. I'm coming home.

Sorry to have been gone for so long.

Wish me luck.

Deals, Steals, and Another Corporate Merger...

Is what I would say, if the Board was just a normal mega conglomerate. They're a bit more particular than that. Problem is, they want something from me in exchange for clearing up some rather embarrassing transgressions on my part. Miss Renalda. We need to talk. Upper Management would like to make a very lucrative deal that would benefit all of us. And would actually save my skin from some pretty serious punishments. Listen, you'd get just as much out of this as I do. I don't get to die, and you and your pals get a slush fund to throw around for whatever it is you're doing there. But I know you're going to ask, how am I supposed to ask her for help? In my mind, it sounds a bit like this: "You're getting my head out of the damn noose, for one. And I get a swanky new lease on life after some previous fuck ups."   "Don't disappoint me, Miss Renalda." I sent that text, halfheartedly hoping I'd get a respons

The Staggered Reply, Quite Literally...

-
This are progressing slowly here. But hey, here's another riddle. Maybe I should try watching something on Netflix. I hear a new movie is coming out tonight. The Staggered Reply Flamel retorts against youth who does not believe in God. Icarus, who flew too close to the sun, paid for his arrogance with his life. What is your payment to seek entrance to the providence?  What is your toll to see the ________ beyond the Gate? These names, steeped in prophecy, shall be your guide. The first answer fills the void. The second may lead you astray: Tim called me the other day. Richard pointed out that Urey doesn’t like pineapple upside down cake. Tracy said she couldn’t cook anything else in time. Hughes said he couldn’t make it either, too busy with work. Tracy was mad about that. Arthur tried to talk her out of the argument. Greg did too. Isaac called, told everyone that Samuel was coming around.   Not sure what he meant by that, since Tracy, Ethan, Ru

Under the Pale Moonlight

Loud shuffling. Clatter of closet doors. Drawers rustling. It’s breaking my concentration. Over.. Whatever the hell I’m signing at my desk. It looks like it’s requisition forms. Or some shit. I don’t know. I’m trying to ignore that fucking incessant noise. It’s Jack, I’m pretty sure. Rummaging around her room like she has been for the past few hours. And then there it was, a hard thump on my door. Followed by several furious raps.  And then a voice. Jack’s. Except it wasn’t her usual viciously dour tone coming through the hard-wooden frame.  “Tag. Open the door. It’s… important.” she stated, more matter of factly. I growled, grumbled, and got up to open the door. There she was. Except… well..  The conversation was not what I expected. And she looked tired…  Clothes bedraggled, red cheeks, circles under her eyes.  “Listen. I need it back.” “Need what?” I replied back.   “My mask, you bastard. Where did you put my mirrored mask?” Her ol
