Send powdered milk here The facility is locked down. Someone has been doing Jarans work. The iron comet is still outside, and Joshua has news from…
So every evening, uh, we have gathered in the common room for a get-together, first going through boring stuff, you know, security protocols, preparing ourself to either flee or hide if the comet things, you know, the, the, the, the things maybe living inside the comet, that if anything lives inside the comet at all, you know.
You know, if they or it or whatever it is should decide to harvest our organs and pluck out our eyes, or worse, I mean, who knows? So we need a plan for that, which we have been working on.
Be prepared, not scared, as I've always said.
But yeah, we've, we've, we've had fun.
You know, every evening I've, uh, been performing my songs for everyone on my ukulele.
Thomas Grind has been reading poems.
Bleak and abstract poems, I must admit.
One went like this [chuckles], uh, "Death is death.
What life is life?" I mean, so pessimistic, right? [chuckles] Joshua, on the other hand, didn't do much to begin with, as I think his mind is very occupied by his latest advancement, uh, on his faster-than-light device.
You know, he's now able to shoot color particles across millennials, and it came back faded.
[scoffs] Amazing.
He has been talking about or muttering about doing human tests soon, but I think he should be talked out of it, to be honest.
I, I know it's tempting to advance his project further, but he should be patient, unless he wants to become a patient.
[chuckles] Am I right? You know, after all, color particles are not the same as a tall, huge bear of a man.
It's not the same at all.
Also, I don't like the very probable risk that the entire Deep Earth Anomaly Department could go along with it.
Um, I just don't like it.
If I did like it, I would know for a fact that I was insane, whi-which means I wouldn't know.
[chuckles] Insane people rarely do, so And anyways, what I'm trying to say, the get-togethers have been amazing.
Ingrid also did a dance on one of the evenings, which flabbergasted me.
You know, she's a pure talent, machine or not.
Just amazing.
