[video] the conspiracies don't start till i walk in

[gogoghostpowers]

[It is 3 am. Danny's hair is disheveled, and he is in his freemasonry-symbol pajamas. His face is lit only by the glow of his laptop screen. He looks crazed, and it's not certain whether he actually looks like that, or that's just because of the lighting.]

Oh my god, guys, I just--I figured it out!

So, there were those pink lights in Vegas that we all saw, right? And pink lights mean something's alien-related. So alien-related stuff is showing up in Vegas, which is only like 200 miles from Tonopah Air Force Base, where the real alien testing was done during the Cold War when they were using Area 51 as a decoy!

Guys. This--this can't be a coincidence. Who knows how deep this goes. It might even go beyond the Locke police department, beyond Sherman and even Edwards. This could go as high up as the military--or the secret service, or the president himself!

I don't know what's going to happen next or what it all means just yet, but I know it's connected somehow.

[Someone looks tired. He woke up in the middle of the night and checked the network, oops.]

I've never met them, but something tells me you're starting to sound like your parents.

Wait, woah, dude, that shit's scary. You can't just drop a bomb on me like that without any kinda warning!

Lemme just... I gotta sit down and deal with this shit, okay? Because, wow, I don't want to get abducted. I don't want an alien anal probe.

[Danny, the Dians can roll with a lot of stuff. They tend to follow any leap of logic they have to take for the things to be optimistic for everyone. They'll take leaps of logic to ensure that their buddies are correct in their information.

But not at 3 am.]

Go to sleep Danny.

too early

think up conspiracies later

After team's Vegas arrival much, much later in the day; video, iPhone;

[Lily is walking through a busy lobby, people teeming around her. She squints, holds up her iPhone. Sighs.]

Danny, that--

[She purses her lips. Okay, the Area 51 thing had... a potential point, after all they'd experienced. That was true. But...]

Let's not reach too far.

Also, hi.

...Well.

I'd believe it. I mean, you totally did call the tampered water, even if you couldn't have known it was snakeskin.

Whoa, that sounds... [ thinking on it for a moment ]

Actually, it sounds insane. Like, beyond numbers club insane. I'm pretty sure you need some sleep, dude. [ and to maybe lay off the drugs um ]

[Here Danny, have a link to an article about sleep deprivation and how it affects the way people think and reason.]

SLEEP NOW
BE CRAZY LATER

[When Killian sees this at Not Stupid AM, he sighs]

Dude, you sound like the conspiracy theorist reddit or whatever it's called. That thing.

[Flatly, with eyebrow cocked.]

Look, as much as I know we actually have proof of aliens and whatnot... Uh... Are you sure you don't just need to up your adderall prescription, kid?

[oh don't you even start.]

Danny, I want you to do something for me: go to sleep. Wake up tomorrow morning. Read this in your parents' voices.

Voice.

[flamberge]

[3 am and Karl are good friends! Obviously 3 am and Danny are not. Reading this begs the question: how long before the son becomes the father? Cause sounds like it's already starting.]

Your parents would be proud if they ever saw this.

[Kara is...actually pretty perky for three in the morning, albeit in her pajamas. she's used to being up at these weird in between hours from talking with her family and crunch time during paper season. today was the former, leaving her a bit more energized than the latter would have, although from her quizzical tone it seems that this isn't helping her understand anything in this post]

Excuse me? I am sorry, but I am afraid that I do not understand much of what you are attempting to tell us.

Danny I swear to god.

Well, when you say it like that I can't help but see the merit.

Good to see you're still in top form, Danny.

Thinking before we spam everyone with conspiracy theories might be worth your time.

[dead_black_eyes]

Even as this situation goes, I think that's a little farfetched.

What's your name, and what are you doing up at this hour?

[Well this was a fun diversion over morning cafeteria bagel.]

Congratulations, you've figured out there's aliens and government conspiracies involved.

[gobybessie]

We hardly know anything, but it is certainly likely it goes a lot higher.

[ She'll just...meander up to Danny's room for this conversation... ]

...I'm not sure that's the case.
