We should start keeping track of the missing.

[That's two more good friends, in the span of a couple of days, and the loss isn't easy to push through. But it's not time to get sad, or scared. It's time to get angry, get moving, get ahead.

Someone had once suggested they were going home, all of the vanished people. But no matter how hard she hopes, Clara just can't make herself believe it. Things don't work that way. Why would their captors just toss them back, like lucky fish? It doesn't make sense.]

I've got a few working theories, but none of them are very nice, so I'm open to suggestions.

Then what? They are giving us something that helps to do what?

[oddbod]

That's what we need to figure out. Every door we open up is just another question. Why would they let us find the control room? Why would they let us find the hangar? It's all this big puzzle that we're playing right into, and none of us know what the picture is yet.

[possidetur]

Could it not be that there remains someone who was not killed?

[oddbod]

If there is, I'm not sure I care for them. Maybe someone's on our side, but someone else isn't.

[possidetur]

And if the one giving us the codes is trying to help? Perhaps they have the same enemy that we do.

[oddbod]

[Well, she has to concede...]

It's not impossible. Anything's on the table, really, 'far as theories go.

[possidetur]

I wish that we had a way of confirming something. I believe that we do need to continue accessing the areas that are currently blocked off.

[oddbod]

We do. That much is undebatable, as much as I hate to admit it.

[possidetur]

We will find answers, Clara. So long as someone is looking we have that chance.
