[ Derek had honestly made an attempt to forget the numbers at first. Repeating different words, different phrases. Listening to terrible songs on repeat.

Not that it had worked. He had developed an impressive headache for all of his effort though.

He gives a short sigh before giving into curiosity and scribbling the numbers down on a nearby piece of paper with a small note below them. ]

I have a feeling by this point that these numbers are important. I could do without them being the first thought on my mind though.

[ He pauses in his writing for a few moments, taking in the other lines appearing on the paper.

That wasn’t what he was expecting, at all. Although in hind-sight perhaps he should have, there were plenty of tales, mainly horror based, about text appearing after a phrase of some sort is initially written down.

This seems far less demonic though, more reminiscent of a certain worldwide network. ]

The numbers are an access code then. Looks like the standard internet has a competitor when it comes to mobile access.

If you were crazy, all of us would either be a figment of your imagination or crazy along with you.

Given this talk about a fish-obsessed guy, I wouldn't rule out the latter.

I haven't ruled out either possibility yet. Do you think all of this is legit?

I'm not sure yet.

It sounds unbelievable but, if it isn't real? That means there are a lot of us being allowed to simply wander around while having severe delusions.

I'm not sure which is a worse prospect. I doubt many people are going to willingly turn themselves over for evaluation.

I doubt there's someone here that could carry out an evaluation in the first place.

Isn't that what psychologists are supposed to do?

Have you met a psychologist lately?

One who isn't in the same position as us?

Yeah, but not one that many here would probably be willing to go to.

Which could probably be said of any psychologist out there.

Very reassuring.

An alternative is a self-diagnosis but I can't imagine that going well.

Not many people here seem to be the 'trust the authority' types.

Probably not. If anyone tried to match their symptoms up to some online diagnosis, we'd all be psychotic.

With arguably good reasons not to.

We'd all be psychotic but at least we'd have acknowledged a lack of sanity.

Is that from personal experience, or just what keeps being talked about around here?

Now that would almost be worth it.

The hearsay. I don't plan on finding out whether or not it's truthful any time soon.

Almost.

Better safe than sorry, I guess, even if I don't think it's true.

There's no harm in being prepared. Just in case it does turn out to be true.

As long as preparation doesn't turn into paranoia.

Pretty sure our conversation is proving that paranoia already exists here.
