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.]

Ah, and he lived? He was pretty lucky.

It was firing arrows...a normal bow, crossbow...did it look archaic in design? Or more mechanical?

If the circumstances had been different, he might not have been.

The bow was of the normal kind, though it was too dark to get a good look at the design. My guess would be archaic, from the sound of the string.

Hmph. Idiots.

That helps a great deal, thank you.

...?

I see. Did you have any other questions pertaining to the incident?

I don't, but thank you.

Understood.

... May we return to the previous discussion?

By all means.

Thank you.

We were speaking of the correlation of the wings to this world. Although, the animals within the barrier don't have them, which I found odd. Yet when they are brought here with a journal, they are included in the experiment.

Perhaps there is a reason to this. Can you think of one?

Were they somehow specifically bred for life in the enclosure? They don't even seem to be affected by the shifts.

Very astute; they were bred specifically for this world, though not for the enclosure itself. Rather, they were bred on this world. Natural inhabitants, if you will.

Natural inhabitants... that don't require the wings to live. Is there any truth to the thought that the wings do act as a balancing force for survival, given that some of us may normally be attuned to such substances as mana, or fonons, as part of our body's life force?

You mean like feathery antennae? That's a cute idea, maybe a correct one.

You can't deny that any other "use" for them seems to be difficult to find. The colors vary, but they're hardly unique identifiers.

And yet the Third Party's are different, in comparison to ours. Theirs are large, and they are even able to fly with them.

You know, I think you might be able to pry some interesting details out of a boy named Sora, or perhaps any of his companions. Ask him if he'd ever changed forms when visiting other worlds.

Luckily enough, they're students of mine. I'll have to look into that, and see where it leads me.

I appreciate your input, Miss Rem. ["And find your lack of input on certain things very telling."]

Oh, you're using that one?

Hm. Suit yourself. It was a pleasure talking to you, Miss Sage.

"That" one? If there's another you prefer, I could use that instead.

Nah, she's cute. Go right ahead.

For lack of anything else, we borrow from others.

... Very well. I look forward to speaking with you again.
