Aw, c'mon guys. House dad #2 showing up is a seriously unwarranted punishment for your best and brightest. Poor Lila didn't even get 24 hours to play around in the kiddie pool.

Guess what's in our room?????????????

Hi sweetie! I just wanted to apologize to you that we didn't get to tell you in person about this whole weird Simms thing. Like Oliver said, we don't really know what's real about it, but after the fact I kind of realized that maybe someone should have told you before the whole group message went out. I hope you're okay! If there's anything you need, you just let me know, okay sweetie? <3

I'm currently lounging in my cool new room in the barn. not much here but some clothes and makeup - unfortunately, none of the colors match my skin tone and the clothes are hideous.

they bought it, by the way. or at least, the seed has been planted that it could be true. pam got shrill and Oliver looked like he might pass out. pam brought me here before I could really see the full effect of it all.

before we talked about Simms, Oliver apologized to me for how things were back in zenith and wanted to "do better" by me - though I'm pretty sure I won't hear a knock on my door for the rest of the day. I'm like a naughty child who got sent to her room. they could have at least spanked me first.

Lila's back in the house now. She's unhurt and getting settled.

She came with some tough news, and I'm not sure how it's going to affect things around here. The only thing I ask is that we keep clear heads, and if there are any concerns, you come to me.

Simms may be alive. Lila says that for a few weeks while she was away from us, she was ordered to play nurse while he was recovering from his wounds. We have no way of confirming this, particularly considering we know some of the things they're capable of doing and making us believe. It could very well be that this was some kind of setup by Them to make sure she brought the news back to see how we'd react. We don't know.

I know a lot of you have questions, and it's going to be frustrating for everyone that there aren't a lot of answers right now. Try to give Lila some space so she can get settled. There's a lot going on in the immediate that she needs to get caught up on and prepared for.

An important reminder: We have Scotty here. Whatever our experiences with Simms were, his weren't the same, and be mindful that we're talking about his father. This is good news for him, even if we don't know anything for sure. Be mindful of that, and the fact that this is a kid that's just happy his dad might be alive.

got GPS on our phones now it looks like. everyone else ok? is Cecilia

You around?

Lila came with some weird news and it looks like the big guy is about to have a panic attack. We're in the main room of the lodge.

The windowsill closest to the door is wet, FYI. You got any designs you want me to paint on them? Marco suggested starfish. XD

Going to the mill for a while. I'll be back by dinnertime.

fyi, me, Chase and Pam walked out to the marker on the map that Zippy mentioned. We found Lila in one of the boxes. we're headed back now.

Okay, garden peeps! Do you guys have a preference on how all these chicken bits are stored, or where they're going? You should be able to use all of them, right?

[PM to Lila]

They're coming to get you, Baaarbaraaaaa.

Nag-a-lot, nutjob and Kiley, about five minutes out.



[PM to Lennon]

You busy?

You all saw that Zippy thing, right? Does anyone want to go with me and see if that's where the single servings of food are? I don't really know how to carry that stuff back. Does anyone know if there were any coolers left or anything? Was anybody missing any other prizes or whatever?

Lennon already knows because it’s in our room now but I got a kick ass color printer that can print from my tablet and phone. Obviously you guys can use it whenever you want.

Also, if the weather stays nice, I have my laser tag set still. I know we can’t play at night outside but... idk maybe we can figure something out.

I’ve been doing a lot of looking into the codes on the subject numbers. This is… this is what we’re looking at so far.

1st Digit -- 4 / 5 / 6

This seems to have something to do with an age bracket, But I’m not sure how exactly this is decided. The numbers seem to be going up instead of down which is a little strange.

4- Known Ages 36-40

5- Known Ages 24-31

6- Known Ages 18-20

2nd & 3rd Digit

This seems to be an identification number for when we were kidnapped. The people who were here the earliest have the lowest numbers, while people here later-- like myself-- have higher numbers. It’s unforseen what would happen if they reach triple digits.

4th Digit

As we all seem to know, this is the number of family members that could replace you. I have three, surely representing my three brothers. It doesn’t seem to include parents? And… well, I guess in some cases it must include children because Scotty is here.

5th Digit

I have yet to figure out what exactly this means yet, but I do know that we are split up into three sections here. I’m going to relay those here in hopes that maybe the groups can think amongst themselves about what could possibly bind them.

A - Audrey, Edwin, Kate, Oliver, Pam, Scotty

R - Chase, Jack, Kiley, Lennon, Tobias

U - Dylan, Felix, Lucy, Marco

6th & 7th Digit

So, as I think I mentioned before, it seems like we are split up between two categories ‘CO’ and ‘UN’. Ivy, Pam and I used 50 of our fish so that we could ask TPTB a question about these. We decided to ask about what this set of numbers meant, and they replied “These two letters are denoting whether or not the subject is aware (on any level) of their own affinity”. My thought is that ‘CO’ stands for cognative as in people are vaguely aware, and ‘UN’ as in unaware, but honestly that’s just my guess. I have no idea what my latent ability could be, but that could be why I am ‘UN’.

8th Digit

This is a number between 1 and 5. To me, it looks like it could be some sort of rating system, but who knows what it could be.

1 - Scotty & Tobias

2 - Lucy & Edwin

3 - no one… but formally a girl named Juliet.

4 - Dylan, Jack, Kiley & Lennon

5 - Audrey, Chase, Felix, Kate, Marco, Oliver & Pam.

That’s… um… all I know. I was hoping to get some thoughts?


[PM to Jack]

So, I’m not going to lie. Most of my cooking skills come in some sort of instant variety. But I know a lot of the cooking falls on you. If you’re willing to show me a few things… like how to butcher the chicken, or some other basics, I was thinking that I could help you more in the kitchen?

So it may not be widely known for obvious reasons but before I showed up here I was a massage therapist. I asked the pow *them* for a bottle of massage oil and they gave me one. There are a lot of benefits to getting a massage, especially in relation to stress, so I just wanted to offer my "services" if anyone needs or wants it. Don't be shy. My hands need the exercise :)

So we’re waking up in barns now? Fun.

Day 43.
