[ As if Bruce Wayne ever makes a video appearance anymore. It's more convenient to send out a general message and see who responds. As well as the fact that he's usually making these posts during meetings at Wechester Enterprises. ]

I think it's best if we centralize what information we know about this location. Driftcrest seems to be be more hostile than the last two locations I've been in with this "dimension." I'll share what I've learned so far.

Update me or correct me where I'm wrong. I'll update this as needed.

- Everything shuts down after 7:00 PM. No one is allowed outside. Guards are posted.
- Ice sculptures of people who have seemingly passed. There's a memorial plaque.
- Driftcrest might of been a fort at one point?
- Something is out at night. Hunting? Watching? I've only heard rumors.

I've managed to be out a little later than 7 and there were still people out. Not many and they're usually rushing to shelter.

I could hit the library and see if I can find more history on Driftcrest and confirm the fort theory.

Ronan and I are going to try to do some investigating after dark. If we find anything relevant, we'll let you know.

I have Blue's research. I can see if there's anything else that might help.

[menarebrave]

No one really likes the idea of loitering then.

Let me know what you find. Sometimes even myths are helpful. Local legends, folklore.

How are you and Ronan doing?

[affection_for_research]

No they don't. I assume whatever causes that it the thing people are noticing at night.

If there's a legend about it, I'll find it.

Do you really want to know how we'll do it?

[menarebrave]

Sounds like a sound theory so far.

I'd think there would be plenty, given the fact they're all scared of whatever these Unseen are.

It was more a general question of how the two of you are. Though, give me the details. Call me curious.

[affection_for_research]

I'm not certain if there will be any legends. The people here seem unwilling to discuss whatever happens at night.

That or they're afraid that discussing it will cause something to happen.

We're okay. I think. Getting used to normal after the memories of Gotham are complicated. I'm having some complications with our friend Adam that I can't seem to sort out.

Ronan thinks he found a way to explore at night without being noticed by whatever is out there. We're going to test it soon.

[menarebrave]

Maybe there's some archives or books hidden away? Someone has to have something.

That's a good point.

Let me know if that idea at night works.

Gotham isn't easy for everyone to handle. Even if you've lived there your whole life.

[affection_for_research]

There could be. I could try my usual methods and see if I can convince someone to let me see what's in the back rooms and archives. It has to be easier than charming people at the Cambridge.

I'll see what happens if I'm a sympathetic ear and give some encouragement. Someone might let a few details slip.

I will.

I think, in some ways, Gotham was easier than what's happening now.

[menarebrave]

The leyline method?

Empathy always wins points. Unless you come from money, then no one believes its genuine.

It's just another type of weird. Especially after what happened in Metropolis a few years ago.

[affection_for_research]

We could try that as well.

Usually I can charm my way into most archives if I set my mind to it.

It might be more than charm, but I'm not certain. I've never run across someone else who could do the things I can.

That type of weird was clear cut. Things are more murky here.

[menarebrave]

It must be those stunning magical looks of yours.

Murky or just plain muddy. Either way it doesn't really help us.

[affection_for_research]

I'm imagining the faces Blue would make if she was here to read that text.

Actually, you're not completely wrong. Magic might be involved.

No, it doesn't help at all. There has to be a better way to organize what we know and gather more information.</font.

[menarebrave]

Blue's gone?

Organizing what we know isn't hard. We just need to centralize it. Gathering could be trickier, especially if people end up being as paranoid as they were in Wechester City.

[affection_for_research]

She went home a few weeks ago.

I have her research.

I can probably get some of the info from the trickier people, if you don't mind the methods. I think some people would disapprove of what I do.

Sometimes *I* disapprove of the way I do it.

Usually I keep my research in analog systems, but I could transfer it to digital .

[menarebrave]

My condolences.

Most people will disapprove of us sticking our noses where we're going to. Just keep your head down as much as you can. We don't need anyone being arrested and needing a prison break. Or bail.

You found analog systems here?

[affection_for_research]

Thank you, but it's better that she's back home. I know how much she missed her family.

If I can keep Ronan out of jail back in Henrietta, I should be able to keep all of us from being arrested here.

I've created one. I'm still looking through Blue's notes, but I'm transcribing everything to try to put it into a comprehensive whole.

I wouldn't object to making it digital, but I don't have the resources here.

[menarebrave]

I wonder if she'll notice you're gone.

I have a few computers you're more than welcome to use. It's not the set up back in Gotham, but, it works for now.

[affection_for_research]

All three of us are gone. At least Noah will have company now.

I'd appreciate being able to use one. We could figure out a system for organizing the information so that it's more accessible. That way if anyone else goes home, whoever is left will still be able to find what they need.

[menarebrave]

A silver lining it sounds like.

You're more than welcome to. I'd invite Evie, but, I don't think she's as savvy with computers as the other version of herself.

Just don't break into the condo to do it.
