Text: This is a public service announcement

[lighter_flick]

[After he wakes up from that weird dream, it takes him a few more hours to realize that Eikichi is, somehow, missing. And...that was it! That was the straw that broke the proverbial camel's back! Because by mid-morning, there is an angry-looking text post from Tatsuya on the network, with only these words of warning.]

ATTN: HINOTO-RI

PHILEMON WILL RUIN YOUR LIFE

[That's....it. Maybe he should elaborate.]

okay...?

[selfgodded]

how.

[prototype_blues]

Well yeah.

We're all here, so you're a bit late with your warning.

[greatseal]

Are you saying this because of the people leaving?

[or.. something else... because that's a lot of bold and capslock, dude. Minako wants to know more before she starts throwing out opinions.]

[Text]

[itswhoopasstime]

That's a pretty bold statement.

[THAT SHE MIGHT AGREE WITH, SHE'S NOT QUITE SURE YET.]

[Voice]

[whereibelong]

Philemon... he's the one who brought us here, right?

[ineedthemforanalyzing]

Wait, did you say Philemon and Nyarlathotep are the same?

[Yes she reads other peoples' threads, there's no rule against it.]

[mysteriousvoice]

WOW GEEZE, CALM YOUR TITS

[gigglesnortpriestess]

I'm sorry but can you explain?

[Already worried since some of her friends went missing. And after talking with Nick too...]

[derwunderkind]

ARE YOU KIDDING?! THIS IS THE BEST THING TO EVER HAPPEN TO ME!

[pastalishe]

I find it impossible to take any of your statements seriously. If your intent is to spread awareness, you've failed miserably.

Little late for that.

[electricyousei]

I suspected something like that, can I get the full details on this from you?

[misery_hates_company]

Oh my, and so eloquently put too! Clearly you have enlightened us all with your calm, nuanced argument. Ho ho ho!

That said, regardless of what you may say, what exactly do you intend to do about this little problem, hmm?

[Text]

[capitalbackup]

Explain yourself.

[linefacingforever]

Got that impression when he brought a seven year old here.

[Okay, so what else is he supposed to do while laid up at the hospital? And he's not even going to mention the convicted murderer too...]

[empressive]

[Ruin huh? Well, this will great. Means one less higher up to trust, other than her father, so to speak.]

I'd very much like to hear the reasons why. You can't make a statement like that without providing support.

[firstofthefallen]

How unfortunate that you confuse a symptom for the cause.

[acapriciousthing]

I take it you know something the rest of us don't?

[not_that_scary]

[Forum lurking was by no means a new thing to Haseo. Because so many people were choosing to respond to Tatsuya-san's post in text, he had a large amount of debates to look through to build up his own argument.]

And?

[This is what it amounted to.]

[Text]

[beautifulmemory]

What has he done to yours?

[voice]

[ladieswhodresslikemen]

Sounds like your warning might be a bit late there.

[Wow, it took her forever to get this thing working.]

[islandshore]

Aren't you getting a little ahead of yourself? We don't even know what happened.
