Notes: Posted to the Fantastic Sucks sub-board following the attack on Alliance HQ and Fantastic's announcement.

You may have seen Fantastic's announcement regarding the individual known as "The Fixer." I now believe it necessary to share some clarifications.

Parts of his statement are true. The Fixer has employed brainwashing which leaves his victims with gaps in their memories. They experience missing time during which they cannot account for their actions or location, and may have unexplained injuries.

Based on my experiences, the mental programming was put in place in October, but not activated until late April. I believe he may have taken advantage of the similar symptoms of the parasitic infections to disguise the effects. While he has been active in Central City and Sunset Falls, he appears to have been operating out of Excelsior.

Other affected individuals may be able to provide more information. Personally-identifying information is best shared in person.

It is possible to remove the Fixer's brainwashing. However, I don't believe my method would work for others.

Fantastic's claims that he is either investigating or seeking to apprehend the Fixer are... suspect. The Fixer is not working alone. He employed others in his initial assault, and he has something capable of temporarily nullifying powers, which seems rather significant for a lone individual with "no known powers."

Naturally I have no interest in bringing anything to the Alliance leadership.

I'm trying to get more prepared, without jumping right in and biting off more than I can chew.

They are keeping me informed of things that involve me. But the rest, I'm on a need to know basis.

[She smiles]

Of course they know. How do you think I picked out this place? Someone's listening in right now, probably watching too.

[unkindled_madness]

Listening...

[Sephiroth folds his arms.]

Of course I expected you to tell someone your location. But I don't much care for eavesdroppers.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki waves a flippant hand, smirking. ]

I took care of it when we arrived.

[qualityfriend]

[She rolls her eyes]

It's easier than them relying on my memory of what you guys said.

[unkindled_madness]

[He blinks at Loki. Oh. Thanks, buddy.]

You could ask them to join.

[dothelokimotion]

[ a low drawl. ]

Since your memory is not to be relied on. And they seem to be unable to break your mind control.

[qualityfriend]

Civilian, remember? I'm not trained to remember everything exactly, including the seemingly unimportant details.

Plus they're not just keeping an eye on you. They're watching me, too, and for any Alliance intruders.

[unkindled_madness]

A thorough network, it seems.

[dothelokimotion]

[ loki doesn't seem to think so, but he merely clicks his tongue. ]

They are welcome to join us, but until then, I think I'll continue to keep our conversations discreet.

[qualityfriend]

How do you know they haven't already?

[unkindled_madness]

[Is she suggesting her friends are invisible.]

I don't think it counts if they refuse to engage.

[dothelokimotion]

Unless they are imaginary, in which case, carry on.

[qualityfriend]

Silently stalking is how they usually engage. But you guys should probably meet, if you're going to be coordinating in the future. In case I'm not available to be an intermediary.

[unkindled_madness]

They sound like Turks.

[Sephiroth that means something different here.]

[dothelokimotion]

[ his lips twitch slightly at that. ]

We'll consider it.
