I really like the word "Specimen," but no, they are not that! I promise.

Oh, come on X, it's not that serious. Sure, some of them can be already aware of their environments, but we're not treating them like hamsters in an experiment. We're just snooping throught all their socials, and all of their appearances. However, I do also believe that they might have something to do with these strange phenonemons that have appeared lately. Did you know that there was a newspaper that just... appeared in front of my door yesterday? You know, I barely look at the news, however I remember reading an article about this new type of material that was just discovered not too long ago. Do you wanna know what was on that newspaper? -C

The same material that I just read about!! The whole paper was all about it, repeating the same info that was already said. There were these random letters that were blacked out with permanent marker. I tried putting them together, but it didn't make much sense to me at all. It was like, both letters, and numbers. Hell, even that one dash character also got blanked out. This is just getting weird. Did I ever mention that I never look at the news, especially get newspaper about our world? Yeah, this shit's weird. -C (edit: 12:43 xx)

That is all mundane stuff, C. Could you please clarify on what you meant? -G

Okay, lemme restate that! So, imagine you're me: You never look at the news, because you would immediately feel ill, and anxious (let alone, get any newspaper as that doesn't really exist in my area), and I was just doing some research, and got carried away, yeah? Now, imagine that you got sidetracked, and looked up an article about this new mineral that looked so unnatural, and then, you get a newspaper that copies the article, word for word. Sure, some news companies do that, but it was, again, copied word for word. Oh, and that one guy who got blanked out for no reason, especially some special characters that make no sense, no matter how to try to rearrange them? Yeah, that didn't happen on the online article. It looked fine, and I even did a side-by-side comparison, too. -C (edit: 12:44 xx)

I'm thinking as all of this went down: This is pretty weird, knowing that more things in your world is only getting discovered the exact same time as this world we're doing research on is also growing into its own entity. It's like someone gotten a DLC in a video game, expanding more of the world. I don't know how to describe it, I'm bad at analogies. LOL. But yeah, it weirded me out, but it's not a lot to write home about. Sorry if I did made it sound like that. -C

Nah, it's cool. Thanks for clarifying. :) This is a tad weird, so we should keep it stored away, until we have more evidence about this, alright? -G (edit: 12:46 xx)

No problem :D -C

Still doesn't explain the growing changes in their world. It's interesting, to say the least. I'm going to go back to looking at this. I had never seen anything like this before. -X

Months later, looking back: Yeah, we might have more to do now. It'll be hella worth it. -C

Hey: So, what's with this channel here, fellas? I just noticed this channel, just by checking my notifications, or something like that. Are you guys really trying to be another Webdriver Torso? Tf? LOL -M (edit: 07:45 am)

Oh. You noticed it, huh? Yeah, we were. I thought it would be funny... thinking about it now, my humor is broken. But yeah, we mainly use it for sending each other messages. Thankfully, as we made our channel a couple of months ago, no one has seen it, so we're in the clear. -X

Personally, what are we hiding, and why? That's my question. -M

Employee personnel, and sending important messages. -T

Then why don't we just say all of that here?? And what's with that video? I couldn't make any sense out of it, but something tells me that there's something to it, but I'm not getting it. -M

Okay, so basically: People could just stumble across this part of the website. I noticed how this site has been "deteriorating" as of lately. Like, there's more webpages that we're not making, or anything. So, chances are: those hackers, or I would like to believe that they are, could see all of this, so unfortunately, I have to be vague in order to keep them secret. But as a tl;dr: Anyone could just stumble across our messages here, as it's not hard to just brute-force your way here. Hence why the channel exists. So, I would recommend removing the hyperlink you added in your original message, so our tracks can be covered. -X

As for the messages, I can try to tell you how it works, but there's a way to decode it. If you want, I can come to you, and show you how to do it. Your choice, though. -X

Okay... Still a bit confused, but I think I'm getting it now. I just removed the hyperlink. My bad. As for your offer, I would like to understand these things. You can come over. -M

Okay. See you there. :P -X

All's end that ends well... or something. Alr, back to work. -T

Oh yeah. We had that channel for months now. Chances are, if G said is correct: In the next couple of hours, or days, another message will come. I don't know what it is, but at least it's being used again. (Shrugs) -C

There's these weird inconsistencies with everything I noticed. I wonder if you all can spot them. Sorry, just me nitpicking. :P -Da (P.S. Not putting my first initial on any of messages for obvious reasons. LOL)

We're totally professionals! Carry on. :3 -X

Ok, so whoever thought it was a good idea to share around that private convo with a friend, you're fucking wrong for that! Fuck anyone who has done that!! -X

Huh? -T

Wait, what? That is awful! Sorry that this is happening to you. -C

It's alright. I'm just pissed off, and worried, cuz that wasn't meant to be made public. Like, have you seen what they've done to this? -X

...no? -C

My exact thoughts are in there, replacing what I initally said. Creepy shit. -X

My thoughts shouldn't have been exploited like that, let alone, be in a fucking video. This company isn't for an ARG, for fuck's sake! -X

I need a break... -X

Yes, please do that. I'll talk to G about this, and hopefully, she'll be able to take care of it, and expose who that person was. Again, I'm sorry that you're having to deal with this. Hopefully, she'll understand. For now, rest your head off. Talk to you later. -C

Yeah... ttyl -X

Hi. Just looked through the chat. I'm so sorry X for that happening. I wish I could do more, but I'm at a complete loss. It's not uploaded to our channel, and as much as I would like to get answers, nothing would let me. However, do know that I have tried everything. Crossing my fingers that it won't happen again, but I'm uncertain for the time being. Please get some rest. I'll fill in the rest of your shift for you. -G

You didn't have to do all that, boss... -X

Please. I care about my workers, more so than anything else. Get some rest, dear. -G

Thank you. :) -X

I made this outta boredom, if anyone wanna listen to this. I've been feeling a tad lonely lately, so I thought this would help. It didn't, but I thought that you all might like this, so here ya go. Hope that it's good. It's been a while since I played guitar, so don't judge too hard. -X

It sounds good. I like it. :) -G

Is anyone feeling nostalgic about old media recently? I know I have. I remember having this okd blog of mine that I don't remember the name of, but I would post some corny ass shit on there. Perhaps it should stay lost. -L

Oh yeah! I know what you're talking about. I remember those old cartoons that used to play all the time. Remember Samurai Jack? That show was fucking PEAK! -G

I bet it was. Unfortunately, I haven't seen the show. I did see Puffy AmiYumi when I was growing up. Loved that show. -L

Ooh! That show was also good. A shame that it got cancelled... -G

Yeah... But the days are behind us. Not much to do about that. -L

True, true. On another note: You mentioned that you had an old blog. I never knew that. I bet it would be wholesome looking back, don't you think? -G

Yeah. I do. I don't know if it's still up, but frankly, I'd wish for it not to. I'm... embarrassed on some of the stuff I wrote on there. T-T -L

Hmm... Alright, sounds understandable. I don'y have the cleanest record of writing things online myself either. I'll be heading back to work. -G

Okay. Ttyl -L
