DAY :027

[onemind]

[A day after the new arrivals show up and before anyone has really had a chance to settle in, every member of the nest gets an Extranet message at the exact same time from an untraceable source. It doesn't show up in your inbox; instead it opens in another window - don’t mistake it for a pop-up because if you close it, then you won’t be able to respond in line. The chat window's cursor blinks at you as the words scroll across, line by line; the message is accompanied by an unblinking blue eyeball avatar:]

XSome kind of brain trust you areX.

XWe've seen you sticking your noses where they don't belongX.

XOf course, they're not really your noses, are theyX?

XRemind us again: what it is that you think you’re trying to doX?



((ooc: feel free to use this post to respond in-line to EXTRAAA, as well as chat with other hosts via the mental-link or personal interactions. please be aware that this post has a time limit and all responses from extraaa will cease end of day 8/19; this doesn't mean you can't continue to tag this post afterward, just that extraaa will likely have gone silent by that point))

XYou're all pretty stubbornX.

XBut you haven't been all that careful up to nowX.

Or maybe we're just not receptive to intruders.

What do you mean, we haven't been careful?

[In lieu of a response comes a few links, pasted one after another- Ilde on stage, a blog-bloid article about Ilde and Ren, Petre getting ready for Bout it Out, a small police blurb about a suspect that appears to be Bucky]

XYou get popular, people start looking into your pastsX.

[ damn it guys!! ]

People like you, you mean.

You still haven't answered my question. Why should we tell you anything?

[onemind]

XMaybe we want to give you a hand so you don't mess it up for the rest of usX.
