I FORGOT THIS TIL NOW I WAS SO TIRED THIS WEEK SORRY :(

[vanghost]

It's probably good to give us all something to chew over the night before exploring, so hello.

[...] Luke and I saw Ash Man the Former the other day. He asked us if we knew the Haling kids and we said no because it's true, and what were we going to say anyway.

But I think he's working with the police to find out what happened to them.
I tried to stand over his shoulder for a while, but I can't read from far away.

But it'd be kinda bad if he OR the real police found out what was happening.

I don't really know what else we're supposed to do about it except maybe sending them all on a false trail. Somehow.
So just be careful.

Even if they did, Iason can wipe people's memory.

[vanghost]

Of like an entire police squad if he had to?

[expansivemind]

He did the whole track team.

[vanghost]

[...] Yeah.
And Jordan still doesn't remember. I thi

[expansivemind]

Anyway, I think it's better to just leave Mr. Noble and the cops alone.

[vanghost]

I kinda want to know what they know.
Are there cop internships?

[expansivemind]

They're not going to let a high schooler help them with an investigation.

[vanghost]

We wouldn't have to help them.
Just get the right keys.

[expansivemind]

I am not helping you break into a police station.

[vanghost]

All right, all right.

[expansivemind]

Seriously, just leave him alone. If it's a problem the grown-ups can take care of it.

[vanghost]

Well that's not

They better not find anything.

[expansivemind]

There's not much they could find. I bet he's frustrated.

[coalblooded]

Probably. I'm frustrated, and I know a lot more than he does.

[dallaslevy]

Are we sure the cops are even looking into it anyway? I mean. [...] They're probably just humoring an old friend, right?

[expansivemind]

If they think it's drug-related they might be.

[dallaslevy]

Well, yeah. But not like Noble is.

[expansivemind]

Probably not. [...] But I don't think you'd have to be insane to draw connections between what's happening now and what happened then, even if you didn't know about the Shadow World.

[dallaslevy]

I think [...] if you're grounded and not emotionally involved, it seems like a pretty big leap? Weird stuff happens all the time and all of that's basically ancient history around here. But I guess it's hard to tell what people might be thinking. Especially from this side.

[...]

I wonder what he thinks really happene

Hopefully they'll stay out of it either way, though.

[expansivemind]

He might be emotionally involved, but he was also the chief of police at the time. He'd remember a little better than just anyone. Strange disappearances, unexplained comas? [...] At least we've rescued everyone so f.
