Zaden, maxing his mic: GUYS (something in Spanish I guarantee) SAO’s HERE. They said “Zaden, many rituals we hear” so they hear my rituals (??? probably memeing)
Darkness: Wait, what’d Zaden say? They’re here???
Zaden: Yeah they’re here--
Muse: Yup!
Zaden: They said (In a deep, movie theatre trailer voice) “Zaden many rituals we hear.”
(Everyone starts laughing)
Zip: Speak-As-One I need to talk to you!
Darkness: (As Speak-As-One) I’m so sore!!
Muse: Hello Speak-As-One!
Darkness: I’m so sorry about what you just witnessed---
Muse: Um--
Zaden: Wait no it’s okay. Wait. Did they hear me singing?
Zip: Yep, promise
SAO: (To Zaden) ZADEN DOES A STRANGE VOICE.
Zaden: HEY! whAT THE???
(Everyone loses it again)
Zaden: WHAT THE FUCK????
(Everyone continues to completely lose their marbles)
Zip: Please tell me somebody's recording this.
Muse: Of course!
Zip: Muse-- Muse---
Zaden: (Through laughter) Do you- Do you- do you not like my strange voice???
Darkness: Oh my god this is amazing---
Zaden: Knowing SAO they’ll just be like no, we like your normal voice just use that one please thank you.
Muse: (While being Shaped) Um, help?
Zip: Speak-As-One please come to talk to me I have things to tell youuuuu--
SAO: (To Zaden) WE LOVE ZADENS VOICE AS IT IS.
Darkness: Good to see you again Speak-As-One, so sorry about what you may have witnessed with us trying to make that jump. So sorry about that!
Zip: (You can) totally ignore us now that Zaden’s here.
Zaden: Yeah, just ignore the singing too. That entire no, that didn’t happen. That just--
Darkness: I’ll come and get you Muse.
Muse: Thank you---
Darkness: (??? Now we all have to be) very careful ‘cause we all can NOT get caught.
Muse: OH GOD ALL OF US--
Zaden: Basically, we found this jump that we could do from instrument supply--
Darkness: Guys-- GUYS GUYS Guys!
SAO: (To Darkness) WE TRUST THE CHILD OF DARKNESS.
Zaden: Yes
Darkness: That’s what they just said to me.
Muse: Yaaay!
Zip: Notice me senpaiii (sighs)
Zaden: Oooh okay, mhm, Shape’s on me now, mhm-
Darkness: So many lucids---
Zip: (Sighs)
Muse: I’m just gonna… I’m just gonna come up here. It’s safe.
Darkness: It’s good to see you again Speak-As-One, (??? watchers) and everything.
Zip: (Squee of HECK YEAH)
SAO: (To Zip) TELL US OF YOUR TRUTH.
Zaden: YEAH WE HAVE TO TELL THEM ABout the AdVERSEary in-in Sat Control--
Darkness: “The Adversary.”
Muse: Yeah, um--
Zaden: Whateeever, I don't know how to talk!
Muse: There appears to be a voice calling out to people in Saturation Control and blacking them out and taking them there, telling them to follow their symbol which looks, quite familiar to the Adversary’s. I know some of the club kids have just been calling it “the Adversary.”
SAO: (To Muse) THAT CANNOT BE…
Darkness: It--
Zaden: But it has a ward, like it has the evil eye ward going through the symbol--
(Muse tries to read what SAO said)
Darkness: Yeah the circle, but (when Syco told me about that--)
Muse: Guyyyyys!
Zaden: SHHH
Muse: They said that- “That cannot be…” But… it is.
Zaden: Yeah it is.
Muse: We have multiple accounts of it.
Darkness: We know we saw.
Zaden: Yeah, this isn’t just one person seeing it.
Darkness: Though I know DiceWolf was the first to see it.
Muse: And then Cryotic got a couple hits, right?
SAO: (To Muse) WE KNOW OF A FORMER HOST.
Zaden: Mhm.
Darkness: I know-- I know Cryotic--
Muse: “We know of a former host.”
Zaden: … What. Say that again?
Muse: (Slower) “We know of a former host.”
SAO: (To Muse) A CAPTIVE. HOW HAS HE DONE THIS?
Zaden: A former host of TID? That’s it…
Muse: “A captive. How has he done this?”
Zaden: “He,” so the captive is male. Hmm.
Muse: Yeah.
Zaden: Or they mean the Adversary?
Muse: I’m pretty sure they’re talking about the captive, is that right?
Darkness: This is freaky.
Zaden: Yeah, I remember they said something like the adversary told them “maybe next time you can free me” or something after they left Sat Control or something like that.
Muse: Yeah. I remember that too.
Darkness: It was, yeah.
Zaden: But the symbol’s-- But the symbol’s different than the one from TID’s so (why are they the same?)
Muse: It’s similar, but--
Darkness: It is--
Muse: Not quite the same.
Darkness: It’s almost like, a, it al--, yeah, its not exactly the same, no. It’s almost like a co--
SAO: (To Zaden) NOT THE ADVERSARY. AN OLD HOST.
Zaden: SOOOOOO, what you’re saying is it’s like a piece of the Adversary that he doesn’t have access to then, like, his former self before the shattering?
SAO: (To Zaden) NO. A LIVING MAN. THIS IS A BREECH.
Zaden: What the heck…
Muse: Uh oh.
Darkness: What the---
Zaden: WHAT THE HECK????
Darkness: We, so like, an old host that has become-- that has ascended or something???
Zaden: But they-- but they like, but they were able to put the kids in Sat Control and then like, tell them to walk it and stuff! That’s, like, beyond a normal person, isn’t it?
Darkness: They might not be a normal person anymore.
Zaden: Ugh…
Muse: I mean, we don’t really have any experience dealing with full-blown hosts except for Speak-As-One’s so… Could there be something?
Zaden: True, they might have strange… powers?
SAO: (To Darkness) YES. HE MUST BE EMPOWERED.
Zaden: “He must be empowered?”
Muse: Huh…
Zaden: What the--
Darkness: (He’s) somehow gaining the powers, uh--
SAO: (To Darkness) WE HAVE NOT SEEN THIS BEFORE.
Darkness: This is something completely brand new---
Muse: Oh jeez…
Zaden: What the--
Darkness: So--
Muse: Is there any possibility that all the fragments people have been gathering could be empowering this… captive as well?
Zaden: Hmm. That’s very perceptive; I wonder too.
Darkness: That’s very possible…
SAO: (To Muse) RITUALS. TELL THE VOICE. NOW!
Zaden: I’M SWEATIIIIIIIIIIIIING
Darkness: I will send--
Zaden: Guys! We will all send LoRs, let’s just get one more evidence I think we’ll, I think we’ll, we’ll get the-the LoR right now. We all have to report this.
Darkness: I already have a LoR.
Muse: I have one too.
Zaden: Well people we all need to report it! If we spam it the Voice will hear it faster, they’ll have a bunch of voices
Muse: (laughs)
Darkness: Very true. But so…
Muse: For some reason, I feel like that’s not quite right, but I guess we're doing that anyway--
Zaden: THIS IS LIKE, EMERGENCY! DID YOU HEAR SAO??? THE WATCHERS ARE JUST FREAKING OUT, I’M FREAKING OUT TOO!!! THIS IS CRAZY!!
Darkness: I understand we all are freaking out (???)
SAO: (To Zaden) YES. MANY RITUALS CONFIRM TRUTH.
Zaden: “Yes, many rituals confirm truth,” SAO says--
Muse: Okay!
Zaden: Okay! Mass ritual! Dancing ritual time-- Well not dancing right but--
Muse: Well, no, that’s ill- DANCING IS ILLEGAL ZADEN.
Zaden: I don’t mean dancing sorry---
Darkness: God damn it Zaden. Anyways, let’s see. But yeah, you’ve heard of the other daimons. And those who’ve met him with Dicewolf being chosen by--
SAO: REMAIN VIGILANT. WE SPEAK AS ONE!
