How dare you.

This comment is directed at every single person partaking in this madness, except maybe @addisonborn whose comment just made me laugh.

@mkarrett: Poor sentence structure. I realize @mike isn’t a vegetarian, he’s #1 fan of Five Guys, right? To his credit he’s also not shoving 1,347 Big Macs and/or dorito-chalupa-gordita things in his mouth hole weekly. Looking at you @rizzzoooooo @kingkill33 @ephorrorsociety @irishalliwell120!!! If any of you start doing gross things with your food on 8/6/16 I’ll BOS smack you right upside your head… Well the guys yes, the ladies never 😉 <3

I’d love to meet you @lenize! Checked the menu and yes they have vegetarian options, not just nasssty hot dogs. Maybe we can convince the other resident vegetarian/non-drinker to go as well, what you say @mike? 😉

I am not the one who makes the ultimate decision of who is accepted and who is denied, but in light of all these choices and non choices, and as the first BOS recruit of this new era, my opinion is this: I prefer to work with those who are confident and determined in their choices, and don’t need constant reassurance and explanation. If this doesn’t describe you, The OOA, Addison, or even the Flying Spaghetti Monster might suit you better than Sentinel.

@reaton: I am equally horrified and impressed at all the notes covering your kitchen table! Well done <3

(Sorry @gatekeeper3, but this time you were wrong.)

@mkarrett: According to @gatekeeper3, yes, he was running late. As I see it, Sentinel isn’t the boss of III, same as III is not the boss of Sentinel, therefore it’s no matter to me that III was tardy. I imagine he had important things to do and valuable Pokemon to catch. It would have been amusing to see him again, but I was fine going it alone. As far as feelings go, Sentinel and III share certain common beliefs. I’ll leave it at that.

Yes, it is off-topic @nosnevets, but I’ll give it a pass by lumping it into this reply to Melissa. My path has been extremely rewarding so far. I have no regrets. I’ve been treated very well, and maintain a healthy level of autonomy and choice. Furthermore, I’m not asked to follow an invisible God or have ever been made to feel threatened by any particular authority. I first pursued a relationship with Sentinel because I am not designed to be a cult member. I know many here don’t view OOA as a cult. So be it, but, this is the fork in the road for me, and why I veered off the OOA path. BOS is often vilified. This effects me not at all. I understand I put myself in a certain degree of peril strictly due to my affiliations. It’s a chance I take willingly. I have no evidence to suggest to me that Sentinel are murders, kidnappers, brainwashers or thieves. I sleep well at night. I hope you do too. Best of luck finding the path that feeds your conscience.

@jvonde: Addison did go outside. She was out of my line of sight for at least a good minute before reentering the warehouse. The video showed Addison very briefly as she walked back towards us. What I saw appeared far more ominous. When I realized my expression might give too much away, I tried my best to regain a neutral face, focus purely on FOUR’s words, and let the rest be as it may without my interference.

[Kimberly @ElectricHippoParticipant]

@mkarrett: You won’t need a week to plan out “gross things with hotdogs.” You only need a 5 minute chat with @rizzzoooooo. He’s pro at this stuff.

[Kimberly @ElectricHippoParticipant]

@mike: Their office is located third door on the left, same corridor as the offices of the Wyld Stallyns and the Bird Watching Society.

[Kimberly @ElectricHippoParticipant]

@dimstyle: It was a general statement, not directed specifically at you. I seemed to have missed your arrival… Welcome to Tension. Good luck on this journey.

@freedomsflame: Addison’s words, postures and expressions changed drastically from start to finish, but to me the changes appeared fluid and made sense. In the beginning she spoke and moved as if she was unsure of herself, this morphed into reacting to FOUR’s commands similar to a beaten down animal, flinching and diverting her eyes. As Addison walked out of the warehouse she seemed complacent and resigned, but an emptiness seemed to have entered her eyes. When she returned her face was void of emotion, her movement was lacking animation, she walked slowly and quietly, she held the knife facing downward in front of her, both hands firmly grasping. When she reached FOUR she stood quietly an inch behind FOUR’s chair, hovering over her, still devoid of emotion. FOUR become more fervent in conveying her message and didn’t show any sign that she realized Addison was there at all.

I steadied myself, awaiting what seemed sure to happen next… Chekhov’s very large hunting knife will always come into play sooner or later. In this case, I expected much, much sooner.

Good to see you again @gatekeeper3. I’m sure you know I do not support meaningless violence. For me, the question is, has the violence we’ve seen and heard of been meaningless, or is it somehow justified. A form of self defense perhaps, even if confused and convoluted? Maybe a necessity towards a greater good? Other than this *minor* detail, I do believe there is much truth in your current statement. I am my own “God.” I stand with. I don’t follow. I am loyal, but not obedient. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.

[Kimberly @ElectricHippoParticipant]

@mike: I certainly don’t feel invincible. I’m a member of an organization that many would consider the enemy. I have been at the center of some particularly dicey situations of late. My guard is up for sure.

I do remain in communication with Sentinel. They have been good to me. I choose not to discuss that further.

Most importantly, I understand FOUR was your friend and mentor. Please accept my condolences.

[Kimberly @ElectricHippoParticipant]

@thebuz: I’d agree. The warehouse looked immediately familiar. It’s pretty disorienting when your traveling blind. I’d guess 5-10 minutes. Lots of turns. No particularly high speeds. I can’t disclose the parking lot location.

[Kimberly @ElectricHippoParticipant]

@blondiecamps: Your words yesterday were exceptionally kind. Thank you!
