Wow. Finally finished my homework after a whole day procrastinating - yay!

Is there anyone on? =]

I know what that's like. Except I tend to work on my own projects rather than the ones actually assigned to me by teachers.

I thought it might be pertinent for you to know some information I just came across. You remember when I recruited you around Halloween, correct? Well, a 'normal' (that is to say, non-reincarnate) witnessed us. As of right now it doesn't look as though she is any threat to RSOR, but I thought you did deserve to know that she knows your identity as well as mine and, oddly enough, Raven's.[/blockquote]

Oh, well. I can't blame you there. Most of the times, school projects tend to be really boring.

... Are you serious? Who is it? This is bad... does she know anyone else as well as us?

Depends on the project, honestly. I've never particularly minded science and history projects, for some reason. =)

Her name is Erika Martens, and she's a senior. She might not know everyone's true identity, but it's easy to determine who is a member of RSOR. The Wizard helped with that one. Apparently, though, she shows no intent of telling anyone about us...which is absolutely fantastic considering the situation.

Ooh, Science and History projects... those are actually fun. I personally prefer Literature projects, though I'm not too good at them! xP

I see. Good to hear she's not planning on giving us away, though. It's very relieving to know. Let's just hope that won't change...

To each their own, of course. I've always been good with science, although history is more of a second life thing. Hard not to get interested in history when you're in RSOR, you'll find. =P

I hope that it won't either. That said, I think she knows the dangers involved in telling. I haven't actually talked to her myself but Fred and Isa have both had serious conversations with her about just how important it is to keep this under wraps.[/blockquote]

[Bianca Aylin Ryder]

I figured as much. =] I've always kind of liked history; so, needless to say, I'm already very curious!

Oh, well. Then, I guess everything is more-or-less under control... for now. And here, I was expecting regular high-school problems... guess I can say goodbye to my old expectations now. xD

I was already somewhat interested as well, but RSOR certainly gave that interest a hefty boost.

Regular high school problems? We're not regular high school students. =P That said, I can deal with most of the complications that being a reincarnate brings. It's Anti-RSOR that I find exceptionally frustrating to deal with. As a group we can keep them at bay relatively easy, but that doesn't make their frequent advances any less annoying. If you don't know already, keep an eye out for Errol, Tamara, and Kodi. If they catch wind that you're in RSOR, they will bug you about it.

They've already made the connection between my past and current self, though fortunately they remain unaware of the implications of that connection.[/blockquote]

I'm gonna keep those guys in mind. Hmmm... Are they really that bad? I wouldn't want to get bugged by either of them... that kind of pressure always makes me nervous =/

They did? Wow. Say, is it just me, or you have a talent for attracting trouble? =P

They are...and if they find out it makes you nervous, they'll feed on that. They'll probably try to back you into a corner on it, actually. At least Errol will. They were willing to pay in the triple digits for just one of Principal Hanston's keys to the attic when she lost them this past fall, and that was only one of fifteen. Just to give you some idea of how serious they are.

Well, up until recently, I dated Tamara's sister, Lenita. Tamara was eavesdropping on a conversation where Lenita called me by my old name of Orville, and a few weeks after Errol all but broke into my dorm and found one of the remote control planes that Will and I were working on. This all happened a while back, but you can see how it started. In both cases they were poking around where they really shouldn't have been in the first place.

So, I will assert this again - Watch your back around them. They are a very determined bunch. I should probably teach you some of the "codes" we use to refer to RSOR outside of the attic.[/blockquote]

Now, being backed into a wall would freak me out. They really do sound serious.

Wow. That's nosey. Still, 'serious' or 'determined' aren't really accurate terms... all that interest seems to be veering into the edge of obsession, really. Or... at least that's what it seems to me.

Either way, I'll watch out for them. And yes, that would be highly appreciated =)

I mean that both figuratively and literally. I have literally been backed into a corner by Errol before (though the particular incident was concerning Isa), though for the most part I mean it figuratively. Still, it's not a comfortable feeling by any means.

Well, I wouldn't go so far as to say the terms are inaccurate. Just understated. I'm not sure just how much information they have on us already, but it seems as though they have an uncanny ability to recall any slip-ups we make in front of them.

Word play is a huge part of protecting our identities. You'll find that if you use certain words you can communicate two distinct messages at the same time.

Those in RSOR have taken to realize that a lot of the time, when an RSOR member references something that happened "a long time ago" usually isn't referring to their childhood but rather their past lives. Yet it's innocuous enough that Anti-RSOR and other normals wouldn't see it as too 'odd'.

There was also a preposition that, if any normal asks, we explain that the letters in RSOR stand for 'Risk Society of Riverdale'. I for one would love to put that into effect at some point. =D[/blockquote]

Guess it's not fun, or pleasant... damn. And for some reason I'm utterly scared now. Just sayin'.

Yeah, well... I guess I used the wrong word. Either way, it seems like they're not gonna stop anytime soon, right? It's almost unnerving to hear. I REALLY, really hope I don't have to run into any of them...

I'm gonna keep that in mind. And... xD Risk Society... that'd be awesome. I'd love to see that, too.

Be worried and cautious, yes, but try not to be scared. RSOR has safeguards in place, adn we're working on more even as we speak.

Be thankful you weren't here when Hanston's keys went missing. Fifteen keys, and if someone had managed to get ahold of all of them they would have had access to the attic. The leader's panel had to stand guard outside the door leading to the attic for a couple of weeks just to be on the safe side.

I would too. I would have liked to have done that for an RSOR booth at the open house, but, alas, no RSOR booth allowed. I certainly understand the reason why, but there goes the "Risk Society of Riverdale" idea that Fred and I had...[/blockquote]

[Bianca Aylin Ryder]

RyderOnTheStorm is ONLINE and TYPING:

I know, I know. I'm probably just overreacting a little. Sorry. I do that sometimes =/

Oh, darn. That does sound risky. But, I guess I can assume it ended well... since RSOR hasn't been exposed, right?

Yeah, too bad we don't get a booth. It would have been a great way to troll everyone. xD Guess you'll have to find another chance to use that, though, 'cuz it's actually a good idea!
