Yeah, you’re right. I could go into university later if I need to. 😺*
Riiiight? Those of us in school don’t need extra stuff to weigh us down. Whatever this social experiment is, it needs to be better at choosing who it’s gonna mess with.

Yep! The one nice thing about universities being a paid thing, is that they don't usually turn away money.
Well... who's to say it's choosing at all? It might be random. Or it might even be linked to something else. We still don't know enough, and that's still the biggest problem, I think.
Random makes more sense. I don't see why they else they would want some dumb kid like me in their scheme, unless they're planning to traffic me or something.
I'm not sure that's even good to joke about. Somebody's going to get punched in the face if they try that. I'll even help. So no, let's assume that's off the table. It's random, but there are still factors. Range, scale, epicenter... We could probably figure that kinda stuff out if we wanted to.
Ngl, I was only half joking. I really, really don’t get why they’d target someone like me, except for the fact I wouldn’t be missed if I suddenly disappeared.
That aside, I’m not even sure how we’d go about getting that information. I know the bureau said they’d answer some questions but do you think they’d even bother telling us the full truth? They’ve been around for a while but I hadn’t even heard of them until this month.
Hey, don't say that. There's always somebody, even if it's small. Who am I going to get my cat memes from if you disappeared?
I think [She doesn't add anything for a long moment. Then:] they'll tell us the truth if we ask and it benefits them somehow. That probably won't come up much, but it's worth keeping in mind. I don't know how they've been out of view this long, but eventually there'll be too many of us to keep covered up, right?
Don't act like you know my situation. [And he doesn't feel like explaining it right now, so that's all you'll getting out of him.]
Maybe. The government is corrupt. I don't trust them to help us in any way, or treat us like we're individuals with dignity. Maybe we'll get forced out in the open eventually, but even if that's so, won't we all sound crazy? "It's those guys who believe they're reincarnated magic users" or whatever.
I don't, no. If you'd rather keep it that way, that's fair.
The Bureau's already made sure we sound crazy, with the whole memory wipe thing. We're the only ones that remember that something happened in the first place. But if there are thousands, or tens of thousands of us, eventually that's too many. Unless they
[She cuts off for several seconds.]
Maybe I shouldn't give them ideas if this is monitored, which it probably is.
Yeah, that’s why I just posted a meme here. It’s not something they can use against me. If you want to talk theories, maybe you should contact that Anakin guy? He seems intent on gathering info and figuring stuff out.
I did, when I went to my first meeting. I might have had a little bit of a meltdown, but I definitely talked to him. Sorry, I'm not really used to this kind of thing. I'm trying, though.
Still really missing that like button over here. Or retweet. Or reblog... Man, would it kill someone to make this a decent social network if they're going to offer it to us and possibly spy on it?
Anyway. I hope things calm down for you, at least a little bit.
