[after this, i.e. after Marine finds Moira and tells her she's trapped in a dream.]

Is everyone alive OK? Edwin, are you in the woods? I have something to tell you all.

I saw Marine today. She found me in the woods. She says we've all been trapped in this world by George Cooper--she says it's all a dream. Or a nightmare, I reckon. She also said anything that hurts us here will hurt us back at IVI.

We're asleep. We're only asleep.

Listen, it's really not cool to vandalize our classmates' faces while people are fighting for their lives.

[METTE]

SOS. Meena not doing well at all, I am floundering. Please help??

I'm stressing out because they're still not awake. Cati hasn't even so much as fluttered an eyelid and it was supposed to be her birthday, you know?

How are you??

I am tired, so please excuse the absurdity of this proposal: Anyone who needs help calming down, I urge you to ask me something. Anything, and depending on how ridiculous the question is and my interest in the question, I will attempt to answer honestly. It can be about Vols, it can be about your chances of winning a free trip to the Bahamas, it can be about anything at all.

You can also ask each other questions here. We can use this as an opportunity to find things out about ourselves that will embarrass us for the foreseeable future. I don't like talking about myself, but my counselor says I should, and as it's said, desperate times call for desperate measures.

FILTER TO: ALEX
merely flesh wounds, don't stress.

FILTER TO: CALEB
i'm going to try and find the lost group.

Marine.

I have a present for you, when this is over with, I'm going to make Coralie the most religious, moral person you've ever met in your life. Consider that my personal gift from me to you.

Same code as yesterday - let me know where you are.

It's strange using these and knowing that Daisy can't just pop in and out of the conversation.

questions.

i am already telling everyone to take care, good luck, and we're doing everything we can. i am not going to hug someone for you. if you have an important message to get someone, let me know. unfortunately, i'm the judge of important: not you.

Friends,

I know these are difficult times for us. There is a lot of fear and negative energy around us all right now, I can see it in our auras. This is to be expected, but I think that really is a call for us to connect. I know that we all have our own ways of coping but I think that most of us could really use the support of this community we have here. I think it's really important that we band together in this time. And I think that we can really do something against George Cooper and his negative powers if we create our own positive energy and flood this place with it.

So I'd love it if you can join me in the lounge downstairs. I'll be there in about 20 minutes (I need to shower) and I'll be there most of the night. Bring blankets and pillows, and if you want to sleep there you can and if you just want to hang out for a while that's cool too. This is just a place for us all to be together and for us all to be. Let's not be alone in this. We'll make some tea and we'll handle our feelings together. Because the worst thing would be to do this alone. And we don't have to be alone.

peace b/w/u

[SADIE]
I really hope you're going to come.

I can't deal with some of yo Not looking at the network. Text me if you desperately need me, but you shouldn't desperately need me anyway and the next person to tell me I need to go eat can go fuck themselves I have an apple okay I'm fine

HI um so Marine is my roommate who is delving into some of the dreams that the sleeping people are in. She's REALLY exhausted and right now she's sleeping but she gave me some info that I think everyone else would like to have.

In the first dream, there's a bunch of students at a college party:
Daisy, Mike, Seth, Lo, Santiago, Richie, Oden, Jordana, Conner

The second dream has a tonne of people in a cabin in the woods:
Sam, Clara, Jimmy, Kitoko, Tanja, Ethan, Kieran, Qamar, Brad

The third dream has these people at a carnival:
Carter, Kody, Damien, Carmela, Rashida, Gisele, Callum, Remy

And these people are in a zombie apocalypse dream:
Chris, Jace, Miyu, Jesse, Lydie, Lilja, Anabela, Benjie

Nobody is hurt, everyone is fine, and there's people working on waking everybody up, so let's not panic! If anybody needs to talk, my door is always open! Room 2D!

what if it's a fucking setup

what if ivi is just being shittier than usual and telling us is georgie cooper being evil? who has seen the sleeping faculty?

there i had to say it. i hope you are fucking happy whenever you're dreaming, mckenna

not saying this is or isn't true, but fucking ask yourself at least once, then keep doing your shit. even if it is half of us are as good as dead, so that changes nothing, at least right now

for fucks sake, go to sleep tonight

Questions  (or thought dump of what's keeping me awake)

• What does he actually want? Sadistic, he could have done anything, but this was planned so why? What was the purpose?
  
• What was the reason they were taken? Is it a personal reason (Shannon noted family background)?
  
• Was it simply that he was testing his limits or was it that he could only grab people that were in REM sleep and already dreaming?
  
• If people start dying, can he bring people in as there's a space or can he bring people in anyway?
  
• Is he conscious or unconscious while it works? Adrenalin or sedatives may do the job? Or fire for that matter.
• Are people with sleeping based abilities asleep (no idea who has them) and if so, are their powers viable in the dream?
  
• If he is in fact controlling multiple dreams with multiple people, he has to be distracted so is this some kind of hostage tactic? Can or will he end up communicating? 
• Assuming he is controlling multiple scenario's, none are actually his dreams so does he have an avatar in every dream? If so, will that be the communication tool?  Or can his dreams be entered and used?
  
• Wouldn't this be an awkward time for a kidnapping? Of course it could be a perfect distraction but that's mostly a joke.
• Do you have to be asleep for this to happen? Is it safe to sleep? Would it be better not to enter REM sleep until then?
  
• Why can Shannon kick my ass at Call of Duty even in a sleep deprived state? 

[ Vol Club + Culinary Club ]

Anyone who's still awake and looking for a way to help, I'm moving my espresso machine down to the kitchen in the girls lounge to make coffees for people, and I'm also going to try to help make some things for dinner because some of the cafeteria cooks are asleep too. I don't know yet if we'll be allowed to cook in the big kitchen or if we'll use the dorm kitchens, but if anyone wants to help make food or learn how to use the fancy coffee machine, stop by.

[ Javier ]

You're awake, right?

[ Mal ]

Save a few things for me to hit if I can't sleep.

omg omg omg oh my god i want to throw up what if we start falling asleep too?????

:'( i'm going to wear something nice so that i can still be pretty if i go into a nightmare

HAS ANYONE SEEN JULIAN???? PLEASE MAKE SURE HE DOESN'T TRY TO SLEEP IF YOU DO THANK YOU

[ROOSTER]

If anyone needs me, I'm going to try be around Cati as much as possible today. It's her birthday.

This royally sucks so let me know what I can do. Gonna try help out as much as I can but not going too far away.

UGH THIS IS THE WORST BIRTHDAY I HAVE EVER HAD

[Max Houser]

hey, can I ask a favor?

[ Astrid and Mo ]

It looks like us three are the only Flamingos left. You two had better keep your heads on straight because

Let's just stay cool and calm. I don't know if either of you is missing your roommate, but your both welcome in Lo's and my room tonight (so long as you don't mess with her stuff).

So I know that everyone is trying to get their heads on straight right now, but I was thinking that maybe we could make cards for all the people sleeping to leave messages for them when they wake up. It might be nice to see how many people were caring for them when they get well? I don't know.
