No, not as far as I'm aware. But you've seen what happens when an AI lives inside the brain of a human, so I can't imagine that it would be any better to layer two AIs on top of each other.

[wittingly]

Yeah, I don't think this would be fun for anybody. AI, human, alien. Whatever some of us are.

Do you have any other questions before I switch topics?

[mrngstr]

Go ahead.

[wittingly]

I'm trying to figure out how people know who the displaced are. I mean, obviously not the loud visible ones who own it or glow blue in public, but there have been incidents in the past that made it seem like somebody has a comprehensive list. Displaced who haven't made themselves known and don't even really associate with Rd Wings have been identified.

Clarke suggested I ask you if you're aware of any way it could be getting leaked, or to whom. It would have to be at some point after Morningstar intervention, right? Just a guess, because we don't have established identities or officially documented names until then. It seems like something that could potentially royally

screw us, later.

[mrngstr]

It would definitely be after Morningstar intervention, yes. The Displaced as a group didn't exist as far as I'm aware until that first bus crash when we got saddled with you all.

That being said, the Displaced were able to exist under the radar for a long time. It's only within the past two or three months that you've become more known as a group, and I'd say the simulation you were drawn into and the global monster attack are most to blame for it.

[wittingly]

Can you think of any specific way somebody might be getting an exact list of names that somehow includes new displaced, or ones who have been flying under the radar?

[mrngstr]

Are you referring to the incident where a good number of you were kidnapped?

[wittingly]

That's definitely one of the examples that come to mind, yeah.

[mrngstr]

I can speculate, if that's what you want me to do.

[wittingly]

I would love it if you'd speculate. Couldn't hurt.

[mrngstr]

As much effort as I put in to creating identities for you all and covering any tracks, you're still more or less "created" out of nowhere. Someone (that is, Johann Grey) likely was able to track that, with Cassius' unwilling assistance at the time.

Surveillance could play a part in this as well. You all had to be transported from somewhere for those drop-offs.

Having a public place where you all gather in the Red Wings, as you mentioned, likely also contributed. Even if not everyone goes there, many of you follow each other on social media as well. Someone could put it all together with enough time and effort, I assume.

[wittingly]

Thank you, this is helpful insight.

[mrngstr]

You're welcome. Was there anything else?

[wittingly]

Nope. But if you think of any more questions about what happened, my door is open.

[mrngstr]

It seems you have a lot to process at the moment. All of you. I'll leave you to that, but thank you for answering what you could.
