Okay, I know I'm new and all... But is this normal?

And is our landlady supposed to be talking about going on a "hunt" that I'm pretty sure isn't for deer?

What the fuck's going on?

...You two still are normal, right?

	I have no idea. I can tell you it started last night, but things got so chaotic so fast I had to put up a mental filter just to keep my head from splitting open. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Whatever happened, it woke me out of a dead sleep around midnight last night. Thought I was just imagining things until I got up this morning and saw the boards. At least you still seem to be you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I couldn't even get back to sleep. There were just too many thoughts hitting all at once. I didn't even think to glance at the boards until I got the filter up and could hear myself think again. I have no idea what this is, man. There is that. Then again, I think if my timeline got any more convoluted it'd form some kind of wormhole just on general principle.

	Glad I'm not a complete telepath then. How you doing now? And I guess even this is beyond your realm of normal, huh? Then I'll thank whatever the hell did this for nor convoluting the timestream more by screwing with you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm good now. The filter's strong. And this is...about a 5 on a 1-10 scale of weird for me. Still doesn't beat out a bunch of what I've seen in my time. Believe me, that is one quantum headache nobody wants. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm somewhat amused and mostly terrified by that statement, but at least I know I can count on you to stay calm during this. Kitty and I were thinking of keeping an eye out around town to make sure things don't get... out of hand. Wanna come? Could probably use your "inner eye," so to speak. And I'll happily take your word for it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I could probably broadcast out some generally soothing vibes, but with people as worked up as they are right now I'm not sure if there'd be a noticeable difference without something a little stronger. And I have some ethical issues about anything stronger than that.

Sure. We can also get a bird's eye view if we need to with a teke-bubble/mental nudge to not see us combo.

	Don't worry about it. It's not on your shoulders, man. I could... maybe... do something similar, but it's just not right. I get that. And like you said, it might be totally ineffective anyway. Not what I had in mind, but sounds fucking awesome all the same. And probably helpful on top of that, too. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Are you all right? After getting the filter up that is? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thexman 2011-09-16 05:39 pm UTC (link)
	I'm better now, yeah. The hardest part was just focusing enough to get the filter up. Now that it is, it'd take some pretty serious thoughts or a very strong telepath to break through it. How about you? Everything okay where you are? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	walksthruwallz 2011-09-16 05:46 pm UTC (link)
	Good. Hopefully Professor Xavier didn't end up all crazy or anything. I'm fine, I didn't even stir last night or anything. I mean, Ty and I have the same landlord woman...so I think has somehow ended up a vampire, but she isn't attacking anyone or anything. I don't feel like we're in any real danger. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thexman 2011-09-16 09:01 pm UTC (link)
	A vampire? Huh. If I remember my brief time as a vampire right, that shouldn't be too worrying if she's good with controlling the hunger. Everyone else over there is okay, though? And what about these other people? Some of these messages are sort of...yeeeeeeah. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	walksthruwallz 2011-09-16 10:19 pm UTC (link)
	The other people around seem okay. It's kind of hard to tell without barging in and questioning them, really. Seems there are a lot of other people seem pretty off. I tried to offer my help to Joanna Harvelle, but she basically told me to keep people calm. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thexman 2011-09-16 10:49 pm UTC (link)
	Not if you're me it's not. Give me a few minutes and I can run some psi-scans. Based on some of these messages and conversations, I have a little bit of a theory myself, but the psi-scans should pretty easily confirm it. So she blew you off. Wow, what a great crisis manager we have in our midst. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Huh. Somebody already beat me to it, but There we go. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	walksthruwallz 2011-09-17 05:12 am UTC (link)
	Scan results noted. My thoughts exactly. We need to be doing a little more than trying to keep people calm. There's got to be more we can do. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	walksthruwallz 2011-09-16 05:29 pm UTC (link)
	I have no idea what the hell is going on. I'm normal, as far as I know. People are acting....really weird. I don't know what to think. And unlike you two I didn't wake up at all last night. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	_babyboy 2011-09-16 05:36 pm UTC (link)
	And Nate and I were just debating the definition of normal the other night... I guess the only way to tell if you're normal is if you remember being here before midnight last night. And I'm assuming you do since you remember me. I've been reading the boards and things just aren't... going very well for some people. Should we be worried? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	walksthruwallz 2011-09-16 05:41 pm UTC (link)
	I think we should be worried. Obviously something pretty crazy is going on if so many people are just...not remembering their friends or anything. I wonder if there's anything we can do? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

More than that. Some of these posts from these people sound... unstable. Maybe I'm just being paranoid, but if people can just be flipped like - couldn't they suddenly be completely flipped?

Great, I'm turning into one of those dicks who wants to start suspecting their neighbors of murder.

Am I even making sense?

I don't know what it is that we could do. If you've got ideas, though, I'm all ears.

You don't sound paranoid, I've been thinking the same thing. And Epiphany....if she's a vampire...can't help but think she could attack someone.

No you're not. Though, you're safe with me next door, so you don't need to worry.

Plenty of sense.

I don't know...I mean I don't know how we'd investigate. Maybe we could try and help the flipped people by filling them in or something. Doesn't seem like that'd work well, though.

Or any of them really. If having powers like you, me, and Nate is so commonplace and someone pisses off the wrong confused, uh, visitor... I don't want anyone to get hurt.

And, well, yeah. I wasn't talking about you. Obviously. ~~That was obvious, right?~~

Considering how confused I still am at this point, I don't think I'd be the greatest greeter. But maybe we can keep an eye out? Just in case things go south for someone?

Same. And that's a really good point, if the wrong person gets upset and acts on it....could be dangerous for others.

I didn't think you were suspecting me. I meant that I am: 1. trained in fighting and 2. a mutant with a power, so....if someone were coming into your place I'd hear and could help.

Keeping an eye out sounds good because we can be of some help that way at least, if something goes south.

	I'm not really much of a hero, but... You know, if I can do something, I'd like to help. Oh. Right. Duh. That... makes a lot more sense. And sounds badass at the same time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	walksthruwallz 2011-09-16 10:21 pm UTC (link)
	Right now I've been asked to keep people calm. I'm sure we can be of more help than that at times, though. I thought it made sense. I like to think I'm badass. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Keep people calm? Really? That's - the opposite of helpful.

I'm sure you're using the word "think" just to be modest. But seriously, if I were an alternate version of myself hellbent on causing some serious mayhem now that I'm stuck here, I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that I'd do it by night.

Up for some night patrol? Sounds a little scifi now that I say it out loud, but... Well.

	Yeah, I know when people tell me to keep calm it just upsets me more, you know? Hey, I'm not full of myself. Take this as a good thing. Oh god, Ty, you're probably right. I think that'd be a good idea, but you should remember demons and things are around too. (Reply to this) (Parent)
