Hey, guys. I... Maybe I should've said something sooner, but I haven't been sure if it'd make much of a difference. But it's been really bugging me, so... I talked to our host, tried to find out more about how the reverse Ingress worked, but she was too busy to really answer any questions. But I asked if she had research somewhere that I could look at, you know, to read about it instead, and she gave me permission to use this computer to access her notes. I've spent my free time the past few days on reading over it, and... I don't know. I feel like there's something weird going on here.

There wasn't any information on her research on the Ingress. And, like, she would've written that down somewhere, wouldn't she? And there are some things she's told us that she wouldn't have known if she hadn't been experimenting on this with other people. Like, how did she know we need to go in as pairs, not alone? But there's no information on her computer about past experiments, either. What information is there... is stuff about our worlds. Population, toxicity, atmospheric and geological, stuff like that.

I asked her about it, and she said she's gathering test data from anyone who stops by here, even though there haven't been all that many, since this place is out of the way. She also said she's gathering the world information so she can use it to make the Ingress better, make it work permanently.

I don't know. Maybe I'm just being paranoid. Maybe she's just got her research on the Ingress hidden and locked away in the computer. It doesn't work anything like the computers from back home, so I wouldn't know how to find it. I want to give the host the benefit of the doubt? But... I dunno. I guess I've learned to distrust any time I've been handed exactly what I've been wanting.

[ Bruce glances at her, her words not even slightly surprising or a shocking revelation. It was the first thing to come to mind when he found these files, hearing her say it only makes him surer that it's a reasonable concern and not just paranoia. ]

I think it's fair to say that holds true in just about any universe. Information's valuable, and there's always someone willing to go to any lengths to use it to their own personal advantage, with no regards for other people. [ He sighs quietly, still going through the files. ] I don't know if I can erase these, or transfer them out of her computer. But... I'll have to try. I won't want to leave these behind for other people to find. Or for her to use, for that matter.
