[ Ellie isn't used to making big important announcements. Or posting to the network at large. Still, she's going to do her best! ]

They're moving Project Jump.

[ That probably needs more explanation, doesn't it. Ughhhhhh words ]

The machine they were hiding, I mean. Thunder Corp will be moving it outside the city tomorrow.
Somebody should probably think about stopping them. With the number of armed guards they're sending, it's obviously something important.

[ The message is still missing something. A friendly touch, perhaps? To show she can be trusted? ]

[ NAILED IT ]

An armed escort does rather suggest something of some importance, yes. Something they'd rather we not get our hands on, at the very least.

Right. Likely something dangerous, since it's Thunder Corp.
Perhaps a bomb. Or a monster breeding device. Or a brain extractor.

Oh, I shouldn't think they'd want to kill us. Not as a brain extractor might suggest. Brain altering, on the other hand, that could be it.

[shortspoken]

Oh, you misunderstand.
They wouldn't be killing us. At least one of the aliens knows how to remove a person's brain and keep them alive.
He told me so. And fed me Chicken McNuggets.
It was awful. He was nice, though. Aside from the references to harvesting human brains and letting the empty husks continue functioning.

I see.

Although I can't imagine removing the brain by itself would be of much use. Unless an empty husk was somehow more valuable to the individual in question?

I was a little too disturbed at the time to ask.
I remember last year someone found a machine. Powered by brains.
I suppose there could be a connection. Even though the aliens weren't around then.
If there is a connection, we should probably be worried about being a potential source of alien fuel. Lol.

[ Ellie no that is not an appropriate place for loling ]

There could be a connection, as much as I'd rather not think of such things. But I can't blame you for not having asked at the time. Must people would have been in similar shoes, I'd imagine.

[He's only hearing of it and he's disturbed.]
