Hippocrates' Pride

I am alright, as Tony and my previous post should indicate.  I am currently at the local hospital being treated for the psychotic break I experienced last night as a result of the rush of endorphins that occurred as a result of my current wounds.  Little more to report, though someone seems to have taken a disturbing interest in me.

Alright Clark. Time to propose my idea. We need to get organized, no more of this im all-alone-on-my-blog shit. We need to support eachother, now more than ever. One of the first things we need is a central information hub. H(a)unting is the closest thing to that at the moment, but we need something a bit more consistent, and that which gives us information all over about how things are going. We also need a safety network. A map of sorts detailing the various places runners can go to have a moments rest. One more thing. We cant be runners anymore. We need to be fighters. This IS a war, and we are losing.

Glad you are feeling better, -Prophet

Clark said...

Well, personally, I've never been a Runner, if only for lack of legs to run with. I do consider myself a Fighter, however. And there is somebody who is already acting as a quite amazing hostess of sorts to our lot. I'm sure she'll comment on here sooner than not. Prophet, meet Lucia. Lucia, meet Prophet, freed proxy.

A. Lucia Cat said...

Hello, Prophet...I am, indeed, Lucia.

And I'm quite flattered that I'm an "amazing hostess," Clark. =)

First off, words don't describe how relieved I am that I don't have to comment from the deplorable iPhone anymore! I'm stoked, haha. I can just sit in front of my desktop and type.

Secondly, if only you weren't so far away, I'd come visit you while you're in the sterile zone. I don't reckon I could get my hands on plane tickets that fast though (and Tony, am I even allowed to come to visit? D=). And just tossing it out there, if your new stalker or Ryan go anywhere near you, I will be there, and I will have a very sharp knife handy.

Lastly-- on the whole title thing, all I have to say is this.

I'm sure as hell not a runner, so that makes me a fighter. Which makes...two of us. =)

Clark said...

So in short, way ahead of you, Prophet. Oh, and warn Lucia about Oliver. Ad Tony is threatening to pinch my morphine if I don't pass this over. Curse me for muttering 'Lucia' under my breath.

Yo Lllllllulu. hehe Yeah, you're allowed to visit, but I need to insist on the visits being short. And away from Clark's home, for reasons that I need to withhold for now, but are in Clark's interest. And back to Clark.

Well, I can't really argue that point, nor can I say more than he has. My apologies.

Clark said...

I didn't even know that served food this spicy in hospitals! My eyes are burning, dear lord!

BLINDPROPHET said...

Right. Well, im happy im not the only one who thinks we should stop running. We have a chance, however slim, of winning this thing. So, Lucia, "Oliver" is... well, did you feel that... shock about a week ago? That was Albus ( who, if you dont know who he is, read this: coethed.blogspot.com) Who somehow created/freed him. He is essentially slendy, but non-hostile. He is quite curious, and very loyal to me. I have no idea as to why, but im sure Albus has something to do with it.

By the way. Clark, can you explain the Oliver situation to Lya and friends? I need to run, and i dont know when ill be back. Maybe in a half hour, if they somehow have a fatal heart attack before reaching me. But i have Oliver, so i SHOULD be back, hopefully by tomorrow.

A pleasure to meet you Miss Lucia.

Phobos said...

Hello Prophet, it seems I'm not the only proxy to have escaped His grasp. Good to know. As for me, I'm as much of a fighter as anyone else... So I am more than willing to get the Seven Sins Corps. (A "merc" group I work with) involved in this.

Clark said...

Seven Sins? You wouldn't happen to be 'Pride,' would you?

Phobos said...

No... But it does indeed fit, doesn't it? XD
No, the seven sins were already there, I represent Judas Iscariot.

Clark said...

I hope that references your treachery toward Recurse, and not us. Though admittedly, I have many more than 30 silver coins.

Phobos said...

Don't worry, I'm not the traitorous type... He just got a proxy to carve the word Iscariot into my chest recently. And I like the idea that He thinks of me as His Judas.

Clark said...

Well that works then, especially since I just spawned the one thousandth theory of the day, possibly a way to deter Ola-asu, inspired by the Greeks.

Phobos said...

Ok... Wait. Which one's Ola-asu, and which one's Recurse? Cause I left (and am constantly fighting against) the one who has an attachment to Sandra.

Clark said...

The original "Slender Man" is Ola'asu, according to what he asked me to call him. "///It///" is called Recurse because it appears to be a broken version of Ola'asu. I refer to all supernatural creatures as gods, and the malicious gods as Breaks, as in the broken logic behind a solely malevolent god. Thus, Recurse is a broken version of the Break Ola'asu. That means he is a recursive Break, shortened to Recurse.

Phobos said...

Well I'm a former servant of Ola'asu then. And there's some information I have that may need to come to light soon... Let's just say there are roughly Fifty-Thousand cloned "Breaks" running around. They are rather easily killed however.

Clark said...

Pardon me, I need to make some glyphs. Around fifty thousand of them. Also, how much of your genetic code is Break? I don't want to target you by mistake.

Phobos said...

I'm... Not sure. I'm not human anymore except in form, that's for sure.

Clark said...

Okay, how resistant are you to explosive bursts of fire at temperatures in excess of the core of the sun? If that won't affect you then I can continue without risk of harming you.

Phobos said...

Dude, When I said easily killed... I meant they're frailer than humans, but with all of Ola'asu's powers and strength.

arbiter.tangent said...

Please please please give me a heads-up before you start using those glyphs. I have no fucking clue what I qualify as right now, but I would very much like to not die without any warning. I've got to remember to meet you face to face some day.

Clark said...

I'm not saying there wouldn't be warning, if you hear the screams of a thousand proxies' souls burning in the heat of a compressed star, that's one such glyph-weapon incoming. Also, have you two met? Nathan, meet Arbiter. Arbiter, Nathan. Both of you are part Break, and I'm sure I can direct them to not target you.

Phobos said...

Uhhh.... yeah. About them being proxies.... Not exactly. More like government created clones of Ola'asu. And pleased to meet you Arbiter.

Clark said...

Not quite what I meant. You know how bombs classically make a whistling sound as they fall? Now replace that with proxies screaming in pain. Followed by the sound of a gigantic grease fire.

Phobos said...

Sounds fun.

Clark said...

The snake I just tested one on disagreed for a very short time.

Phobos said...

Also, Prophet, since we're getting organized, why not give us titles like Robert did to the first generation?

Clark said...

Because Rank and Title gives the idea that some of us are superior. We are all equal. If we take titles, it should be literal as to our role, such as my Professor. We won't win by having one superhero, but by having a powerful swarm.

Phobos said...

Good point. The literal role thing is what I meant, however. Just something to identify eachother by rather than names.

Clark said...

In that case, like I said, literal titles only, and only in cases where it is appropriate. Everyone having to remember five hundred names would be ridiculous. It would serve better as an introductory way to identify what we do, for example, "I am Nathan, Agent."

Phobos said...

Anyways, how're the glyphs coming along?

Clark said...

A modified cookie cutter is making work quick, but I still need to enchant them afterward. With some coffee and a complete lack of regard for sleep, I can have it done by tomorrow.

BLINDPROPHET said...

Wow. I did not know i had made such an impression. Nathan, can you oversee all of our military actions? Such as training and finding new Fighters? Clark, you will be one of the most important assests we have. We will need every bit of information you have. I am going to start Our blog. The hub, which will be a place to get info on all our movements (But not EVERYTHING, else we run the risk of infiltration and whatnot) and to find safehouses, other Runners/Fighters, Ect.

And we need a name for our group.

By the way, Oliver communicated on a bit of paper today: Hewatchesus. Becareful, Bewatchful.

Also: Nathen, Oliver is the One friendly Break we have, so he is also a very important person/thing.

Another sighting of the Bear-rake, and i am quite scared. That star is orange all night long now.

Feel free to ask questions, and please think of a morale-boosting name.

Clark said...

I had an acquaintance here, who aspired to be a priest, but he did every imaginable sin. I asked him one say why he did it, and he said, "I do as a sinner does, because the only way out of a forest is to know the path, and the only way to know the path is to travel on it. So the only way to help a sinner out of sin is to sin yourself. This way, a saint can help the sinners more if he sins. This is the ultimate salvation, the Sinning Saints."

Sinning Saints has a nice ring to it, no?

BLINDPROPHET said...

Hmm. I think we will have a viote once it is actually up. But good idea.

BLINDPROPHET said...

Here it is. Follow it, and soon ill make both of you moderators.

Good night, assuming we all make it through the night.

I miss Albus.
