It's your uncle. Did I get the number right?
[ She was going to reply to his message, but seeing that he's going to text her IRL instead gives her plenty incentive to log off. Good.
Her reply is near immediate: ]
Sure did! It's Kara.
What's going on?

I'm worried. This isn't right.
I have a sinking feeling Mithrun's dead for good.

[ ...She wasn't going to say it to literally anyone, but: ]
I'll be honest. You can't tell anyone, alright? I haven't even told Levi. I can't. I can't break him or his brother like this, it'd be fucked up for me to say it to them anyway. I told him I'd be honest, but this is one of the very few times where it's best for me to not say anything to him. Plus, I'm Hani's roommate and they're a wreck over this, understandably so.
I think Mithrun's either dead for good, or he's alive but in terrible shape somewhere IRL.
I don't know which is true. I just hope it's the latter, but that might be super wishful thinking.

[ Fuck. ]
You're doing the right thing. Taking care of them, I mean. Just don't overburden yourself, ok? I'm here if you need someone to talk to.
I hope the same, to be honest. But I'm not sure.
Do you remember the log out glitch?

Thanks. I appreciate it a lot, you know.
And yeah, I do. That was one of the first things I got worried about. Swallow's one, right? She couldn't feel anything IRL. This game is literally messing with people's heads.
There's something more going on, here. I don't think this is just a simple MMO. I think there's something bigger that the people behind Fragment are planning.

[ He can't tell her where he heard this, but he did say he'd float the idea around. Just so that more people know. ]
Yeah. That one.
Whatever that glitch actually is, I think it could have fatal consequences if you're harmed while you're affected. Think about it. What do you think could happen if you're killed in game while you're totally disconnected from your actual body?
Mithrun played a lot, from what I heard. It was probably only a matter of time before he encountered the glitch.
And I know he was the type to disregard danger. He probably didn't think twice if someone came at him with the intent to harm him.
I can't say if CC Corp's doing this maliciously - I want to give them the benefit of the doubt first, but I still don't trust them. I sent them a letter over the weekend. We'll see if it leads anywhere. Otherwise I'm going to escalate.

Do you think the person who harmed him was one of us? An NPC? Someone like Zelkova (not him specifically) where they only know the world of Fragment and nothing else? Kind of weird that this specific instance is the one that's making the least sense, when plenty of us have been PK'd before lol.
I don't trust them either. This is a bug they should've worked out super early on.
This game is giving me bad vibes all around.
If it weren't the only way that Levi and I could meet up "physically" when we can't IRL, I'd just be done with it entirely. Idk, we'll probably figure something out in due time with how things are going right now, anyway.

Are you guys far away?
If you hadn't just started dating I'd suggest you move in with each other asap LOL

5-6 hour drive apart lol. :(
I'll ask him eventually, I just don't know how it's gonna affect our school schedules...

Oh right school. Lol. Nevermind me then. I'm gay and messy
I'm serious though. You're probably better off staying logged out until we get some kind of notice from CC Corp. Or at least until we know for sure what happened to Mithrun.
I'll keep you updated too. If they ever write me back. They didn't have a phone number or email address on their website. It's going to take a while.
And keep your head down. Be careful what you say on the forums and in game. If you need me to spread rumors, I'll do it.

[ hector lmao...gay and messy...... ]
Okay.
Thanks for the reminder. I think I'm going to do just that for the time being. Probably already painted some kind of target on my back but can't do anything about it at this point. LOL.
Just text me here for the time being. I'll answer when I can. I actually happen to like some of you from the game so I don't want to stop talking to people completely.

Yeah, unfortunately I really like some of you guys. You have my number. Reach out if you need anything.
If you can't reach me, Yael has some ICE numbers of mine too.
I know he has Fai but keep an eye on him. I don't trust him to keep himself out of trouble lol
Wait what did you do???

Okay, got it. I'll keep an eye on Yael LOL. Somehow.
Well I was shit talking CC Corp on main so if this is really something they're doing intentionally, I may have earned their ire :P
I'll watch my back regardless.

Did Mithrun ever shittalk them though?
I have a feeling he might've been close to some kind of... I don't know. Truth feels like the wrong word but it's all I can think of.
Yeah. Stay safe regardless.

[ He's waiting, for whenever Pete decides to text him. ]
What sorta high tier secrecy are we playing at here that you can't use dms like everyone else has been?

Are you being serious right now
For fuckin what, Mehmet?? I'm trying to handle a situation here.

[ He IS that messy, but he's just pulling Pete's leg. Well. At least he didn't fall for it. ]
Mostly because I just wanted to share something with you.
Glad you're not stuck out at sea anymore, but do you remember the log out glitch?

[He is so tired don't bully him????]
Where a couple people couldn't log out and it mysteriously just kinda resolved itself? Yeah what about it.

There was more than one person???
[ Jesus christ, this might be worse than he thought.
Anyway, ]
When you're disconnected from your body like that, you're in a particularly vulnerable state.
If you get PK'd when the glitch is affecting you, there's a good chance you're not coming back to life irl either.

I feel like there was but maybe I'm misremembering.
Anyway, what're you basing this on? Like, who told you?

Just been doing a lot of thinking.
Be careful, though. We probably won't really know until someone finds Mithrun irl. Or we get a statement. But I'm not really inclined to believe what CC Corp tells us at this point. No offense, of course.
What you said about bouncing the second things get weird? Probably a good plan.
