... I think I feel a headache coming on.

Somebody please tell me that this is temporary. And that it will be over soon.

...Yeah, the theory we have is that having them turn into kids makes them easier to...catch.

[chikaidestroyer]

... Babysitters. I'm serious.

We may have to gather all of the children together for their own good, if your theory sticks.

[corrinesbell]

There's nowhere around here big enough to hold everyone like that. ...And if they want someone specific, the Malnosso are pretty hard to hold off.

[chikaidestroyer]

Not comfortably, but the community housing is perhaps the best equipped if we needed a disaster shelter of some sort.

Unless you have other ideas on how to monitor a village of children.

[corrinesbell]

No good ones.

...The real problem might be if the Malnosso start abducting the few remaining adults.

[chikaidestroyer]

Indeed. In which case his theory would be proven.

... But I somehow don't imagine the Malnosso are targeting the same individuals. In which case, at least you and I will not be taken.

[[ooc: Whoa Albert knows things.]]

You have a point. I don't know of anyone who's been taken twice. ...That still leaves a pretty good handful of adults, though.

[chikaidestroyer]

[ooc: He pays attention. ... More so in the past than more recently, but yeah.]

It would be a matter of holding on while the experiment runs its course. If there was a way to stop the abductions, you can be sure we would have a plan by now.
