Oh.. This is new.

• ywrmum (Lee) - "holy mackerel!"

Oh my god! So you do talk
Hello !

• cptcascadia (Cass) - "Hey"

Oh... Theres more than one of you. Odd

• Cass - "Mind introducing yourself?"
• Black Drag0nfish (BD Fish) - "Hi, I'm here too :D"

Sorry, sorry, where are my manners! I'm not used to these. My name is Hasaan. I'm an Archivist

• Cass - "Ah!"
• BD Fish - "Oooooh, that's cool. Hi"

How are all of you?

• Cass - "I think I’m familiar with the archives"
• BD Fish - "Pretty good, just listening to some tunes at the moment"

Really?? If you dont mind me asking.. What exactly are you?

• Cass - "That’s a loaded question. Better for me not to get into specifics of my own physiology for the sake of not taking up talking space here"

Sorry sorry, its just... You're new! I- I've been having this reoccurring dream where it takes me... here. But I've never seen you before. I guess I'm just a little weirded out

• Cass - "I don’t talk much usually. Don’t usually have much to say"

I understand that. I don't talk a lot either.
I'm not always sure if anyone's listening

• Business Cat (B. Cat) - "I am a cat. Are you a human?"
• Cass - "Hey, if you have something to say, shouting into the void can still be productive. You never know who’s listening"
• BD Fish - "What's understandable"

Yes!!

• BD Fish - "And I am a fish :D"
• B. Cat - "I see. Well, whats your name?"

Hasaan!

• B. Cat - "Oh! Nice to meet you! I'm Paul"

Hi Paul! What are everyone else's names?

• Cass - "I go by the initials cc here. My real name is unimportant"
• Lee - "I'm lee"

Interesting. It's wonderful to meet you all

Like... Lee Claude?

• B. Cat - "So you're that "Olympian archivist" i keep hearing about...Have you ever seen a cryptid with your own eyes?"
• Lee - "yes!"
• BD Fish - "I'm Connor, but you could also call me Drag0nfish if you want"
• Lee - "bro goes glub glub"
• BD Fish - "🐟"

Not... really? Not in person, at least. All of my friends have. But i just document things. I don't like getting my hands dirty.

• Cass - "Hasaan i must say you are a lucky man"

You're... supposed to be dead.

• BD Fish - "Woah"

How so?

• B. Cat - "I see. I think they seeing cryptids yourself can either be scary or really cool."
• Cass - "I am referring to the rat king situation you are lucky that the only take one host at a time"

I'd like to one day, I think. I'd love to be a hero.

Oh yeah... The Rat King.

• Cass - "yeah. Not fun"

I mostly just try not to think about that.

• Cass - "Understandable"
• Lee - "it's like Easter!!"
• Cass - "Wish I could better explain what I am, but it is hard to describe"

Lee. Could you tell me more about Mary?
She's been on my mind a bit. And how are you... here? What is this place?
Sorry if Im asking you a lot of questions.
Im just curious.

• Cass - "A meeting place of like-minded people"
• Lee - "yea, you BETTER be sorry 👊😼. jk jk"

I see. Are you also archivists?

• B. Cat - "I'm archiving uploads of a deleted channel belonging to one "Riley""
• Lee - "Tbh, I'm just here, chilling. This is a place where your story is shared to some really cool people !! Everything doesn't go to shit like in that other universe"
• Lee - "that's a hard question for me to answer"

And... how does my story end?

• Lee - "you'll find out"
• B. Cat - "How many people did Mary kill? I keep hearing shes a murderer, but never who she murdered. I think this is important"
• BD Fish - "Me? Not exactly, I know a few though"
• Lee - "in a way"
• B. Cat - "You'll be fine, i'm sure of it :)"
• Lee - ":p"

I'm not sure. At the very least Lee (Sorry, Lee), but I know there's more. I'm trying to find her.
Mary was the last person in my position, you know. Not just with the Rat King, but with running the Archives.

• B. Cat - "Why did the rat king just start killing people when it possessed Mary? Do you have any clues on that. And most importantly, do you only feel the rat king's influence on you when you're awake?"

Almost impossible to say right now.

I try not to feel the Rat King's influence at all. There's been a few instances where I'll sleep, and wake up in strange places, but that's about it. If you're asking about if I'm under his influence right now, well, your guess is as good as mine.

• BD Fish - "What do you mean by strange places? Are these alternate dimensions?"

Well, I meant random rooms. But I guess this place is a strange one, too.

• B. Cat - "Just Rodent stuff i suppose. Sometimes the rat has to kill"

I don't want to kill.

• BD Fish - "Well, you're chatting with a talking cat and fish right now, which I'm sure you're not used to"
• B. Cat - "I mean, you haven't killed anyone yet. It is using you for non murderous purposes right now. Though i dont have any clue on what those purposes are..."

Yeah. I'm not even sure if I'm being posessed is the thing! Either he abandoned Mary as a host, or I'm just overthinking things.

• B. Cat - "What do you think about the Mothman and the Borkoshawsvi Bohemian? I believe those are cryptids close friends of yours are having problems with"
• Lee - "have you HAD any random urges to do things you wouldn't normally do ?? do you feel angrier at everyone and yourself ?? do you think all your friends pose a threat towards you ?? I'm just curious"

Mothman is... allusive. As for the Bohemian, I think I'm the last person in my group who hasn't had an experience with him. Clara, Opal, Rowan, Ashley, Daphne. He's became less and less of a cryptid. Opal and I are planning on trying to summon him... Well, hopefully whenever I wake up.

• BD Fish - "Damn"

I think I've just felt a lot of these things my entire life, to be honest... I mean, I'm the only non-powered kid at a school for superhumans. I try my best not to think about it too much, but deep down I've always felt inferior. Small. Jealous. But I know I'm not supposed to.

• B. Cat - "One very important question that you probably don't know the answer to, but may be important to think about though...Why does it refer to itself as "We"? "Let US in""

I actually have two theories on this. The first one is kind of simple, it speaks in the voice of lost loved ones, plural. (Side note, the fact that I've never HAD any lost loved ones might be why I'm less effected.) But at the same time... One of the few things consistent about its appearence is the fact that its skin appears to be split down the people. Maybe its two entities that fused.

• BD Fish - "Interesting"
• BD Fish - "How do you do in a school like that? Are you into the technological side of things?"

My dad's a teacher! He's some big famous photographer, did a lot of work with superheroes, mainly Vincent. He teaches journalism

• BD Fish - "Oh, that's really cool"
• Lee - "awww, that must really suck for you. Mary always felt like that too, for different reasons tho. Because like, she had powers and like, you don't"

Besides the whole, uh, killing thing. Did she ever hurt you? I'm worried about hurting my friends.

• Lee - "Not physically, she was an asshole a lot of the time towards the end, and then it led up to that. You'll probably go down that road if you don't take this shit seriously"

I'm just... Not sure what to do.

• B. Cat - "I dont think theres anything you can do. That we know of"

That's comforting.

• Lee - "bros gonna murder his friends"

I think I’m starting to wake up. But I want to communicate with you guys again soon. I wish that we had some leads… Something to go off of.
Any last conversation topics?

• B. Cat - "Im sure we will have found something by then, but for now, avoid doing anything you wouldnt do normally. If you start feeling paranoid or anxious, be careful and dont let the feeling get the best of you"
• Cass - "I hope we meet again. Maybe by that time I’ll come up with a succinct description of my identity"

Thank you… I’ll try my best. I’m starting to hear Opal’s voice… so I think this is where our conversation today might come to an end.

• BD Fish - "Well, see you soon"

Thank you for listening to me.
END TRANSMISSION...?
 
Hello, Hasaan.
Who… are you? What was that?
I’m an ally. Those were my friends.
I understand that Rodentia has… taken a liking to you, so to speak.
I offer you my sympathies. I never cared for the Rat King. Nonetheless, she gave me an opportunity to speak with you directly!
Much like the Rat King, I am fiction.
He’s turning your mind into an abstraction of itself. Which places you here.
It is far too late for you, Hasaan. Far too late.
Oh…
So it is important that you listen to me well.
Because only we can put the pieces in place for her. 
END TRANSMISSION.
