[Locked from Malnosso//Unhackable]

[malnosso]

Greetings. My name is ANI; the Automated Neutral Intelligence system created for the purpose of observation and cataloging said observations. I and my creator share no affiliations with the "Malnosso" Organization, nor do we align ourselves with designations "John" or "Jacob."

To clarify. Subjects safe for discussion on the open journal systems:

-John (save his recent Shifting advancements; see below)
-Discussions concerning Shifting.
-The Third Party.

Subjects to be avoided (kept to the laptops or in person):

-My creator and myself.
-John's revival of Jacob.
-Jacob.

Thank you. Please, should you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask. However, classified information will not be released without the permission of my creator.


[A voice begins, a woman's; it's rather low in register.] You heard -read- the lady. Also, I want to talk to you kids about the Hunter and what exactly happened, if you don't mind.

I come bearing gifts.

[There's a click and then a recorded conversation: one voice is obviously Jacob's. The other is an unknown man's, surprisingly smooth and low but very, very sharp and cold. The voices are far away, but audible.]

To make any advancements in science you have to take risks.

It wasn't your fucking life at risk!

That's why it was worth it.

...Goddammit. I don't remember anything. Nothing! You've any idea what that's like, do you?!

Would you rather me have chosen one of the others? ...No? Then you should be grateful.

Fuck. [Heavy footfalls, and a door slam. Another click as the conversation ends.]

Shifting; Shifting; that depends on the parameters set.

[malnosso]

Of course not. I don't get revenge.

[malnosso]

Interesting. I can't say I understand your reasoning, in that case.

...Miss Sage would be pleased, I think.

[unseenspy.livejournal.com]

Hmm. Should I ask about that voice conversation at the end of your transmission? What was that?

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

That wasn't quite my question. Is there a chance he will return at some point in the future with the same malicious intent?

[38thdefender.livejournal.com]

I see. It must be capable of even more than I predicted. Do you know anything about our location in the Universe? Are there any inhabited planets nearby?

[winged-rogue.livejournal.com]

I can definitely understand hiding from John and the Malnosso. As for why he'd hide from you and your creator, I wouldn't know. But why hide from Luceti's residents? We wouldn't cause him any harm. He's on our side.

[malnosso]

Mmm, I don't think so. She's not really the type for this kind of reasoning.

[malnosso]

No, it's been recalled. If you do encounter it again, it won't be the same one. It might not even be a Hunter any more.

[malnosso]

Exactly what it sounds like. An argument.

[malnosso]

The opinions of your peers vary greatly.

[winged-rogue.livejournal.com]

... Because of what Guy said?

[malnosso]

Any information regarding nearby planets or adjacent Universes has been marked as classified.

[Hi. The last time you were available, she was dead.]

So what, exactly, are Progressive Shifts?

And if that conversation isn't some sort of hoax, can we assume that people who are sacrificed in the manner that Jacob was can also be returned to life, though with much more effort than deaths here usually require?

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Recalling him means he disappears completely?

[unseenspy.livejournal.com]

Oh. And that argument is supposed to be of any significance to us?

[Jay doesn't know because he doesn't recognize Jacob's voice...]

[38thdefender.livejournal.com]

Oh. What about outside the barrier on this planet? Can you tell me what's out there aside from the Malnosso and the Third Party?

[Locked]

[malnosso]

Perhaps not, but...

...well.

I was surprised.

[god-is-a-dude.livejournal.com]

Jeez. You really are a teacher, aren't you?

[chikaidestroyer]

Why does the Hunter take wings? What does it do with them?

[knighted-lion.livejournal.com]

That's what that thing was?

[Locked]

[malnosso]

I'm honored to bear witness to this rare occasion.

[Locked]

[malnosso]

Don't let it go to your head.

[malnosso]

"Do?" It doesn't particularly do anything with them. Tosses them aside, most likely.

[malnosso]

No, recalling it is recalling it. As one would recall a product with a defect.
