Anyone remember the farmhouse that's supposed to be serving as an alien hide-out? Back in December a group of us headed over to check it out.

The place was rigged with some extremely high-tech security devices - sensors that would trap whoever triggered them in a force-field
The house itself has a bunch of white tiled rooms in it. There was one room the group who went inside the house said they couldn't get into, and the door was made out of something that didn't look like normal metal.
There's a bunch of things going on in the cellar:
One room has a bunch of containers - some had swarms of vermini in them and others had something we really couldn't see suspended in some kind of pink fluid.
The other is full of animal cages. There's normal animals, and these chimera-things - looked like genetically engineered combinations of ordinary animals.
There are robots in the cellar too, seem to be taking care of the animals and whatever's in the containers.

There's been a debate going on about whether or not this info should get  shared out on here or not, hence why nobody's done a post about it  until now. THAT BEING SAID, it would be appreciated if everyone remembers that running back out to the farmhouse and doing something rash is NOT the best idea, mostly because that could very well put EVERYONE in danger and not just the select few actively trying to place in the Darwin Awards. We decided to share this info because it's safer than leaving everyone in the dark, and it'll give us the best chance of making an INFORMED AND PLANNED OUT return later on, so if you want to act on any of this then for the love of all that is holy talk to us about it.

Do not act like a crazy person and run to a farmhouse with lots of security and mysterious purposes. Check.

[ ...Despite the sarcasm, at least she probably won't actually do that. ]

But uh, I guess I should mention I have earthben - geokinesis.

[ People always get the second name faster. ]

For whatever gets planned. I could try to tunnel under things or something. I dunno, just...if it helps.

[ that ability sounds vaguely familiar to him -- maybe he'd spoken to her before?? ]

That would definitely be useful [ SHE SOUNDS KIND OF YOUNG, THOUGH... hhghfghhgnhn moral dilemma. ]

What have you used it for?

Eh, mostly I've used the whole foot-sight thing. Echolocation via feet, that's what people normally know best? Like, I can see underground. So I went on the last underground thing, one of 'em.

[ SHE'S A BIT YOUNG, but hey she's volunteering more or less to get people in or look around with her feet. She can also throw rocks if need be. ]

I can do uh, the tunneling thing. Without messing stuff up, normally, since I can see where I'm going. And shield myself with it, as long as I've got earth around me.

[ So there's...that. She can bend it enough to do that. :|b ]

Underground thing with Ravi?

Yeah, that's the one. He put me in the same team as Frozone to keep an eye on us.

[ Lame.

...Yeah, she still means Toushirou. That's who she's referring to here. ]

[ HAHA wait. ]

Frozone = Toshiro???

Yeah, him.

[ YOU CAN IMAGINE HOW MUCH HE ENJOYS THAT NICKNAME. ]

[ he legit laughs. ]

Lol! That's great I'm disappointed I never thought of it myself

[ GUESS WHAT NICKNAME HE'S USING NEXT TIME ALEX SEES HIM. ]

[ MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. She looks forward to the aggravated eyerolling. ]

There's loads to work with, with him. Just keep cycling through when he complains.

[ Yes, this is surely useful to any farmhouse plans, Sophie. GOOD JOB. ]

[ whatever, this is totally a legit use of brainpower. ]

Yeah been calling him Toshimurai ever since he got his sword skill pulse but I think it's time to shake things up

[ to contrast, he will later wonder why she does foot-sight at all, and when he asks ravi about her performance on that underground mission, he will learn that she is blind and he will feel a moment of "alex, you ass" for continuously replying in text.

such is the life of alexander varista. ]

Toshimurai? [ There's instant laughter. Congrats, Alex, you've won the approval of the thirteen-year-old girl. Hilarious nicknames are the way to her heart. ] Man, he's just so easy to do. It's pretty much my goal never to use his real name.

[ Hey, he's not using weird text her reader can't handle, so she's got no complaints. ]

I can tell you're his favorite person

Yeah, I think I take slot number one.

[ SHE KNOWS SHE DOESN'T. ]
