Look on the internet for any cases of homicide. We did this already, but two times the charm probably.

[Wrex]

You check the internet again on your phone, for mentions of homicide. And there are, dozens of them as usually befits a city. Sorting any gold from the dross could take awhile.

You plug your phone into the charger to keep the batteries juiced.

Take a shower.

[Wrex]

You step into your bathroom, and take a warm, refreshing shower. You feel all the grime, sweat, and ash of the last night roll off of your body as you gently prepare for the coming day.

You step out of the shower, and look into the bathroom mirror. You look refreshed, and maybe even a little more stable.

Then your reflection winks at you.

PANIC

Ask it what it wants.

[Kashyyk]

Wink back.

[Sosoku234]

Slowly step away from mirror and contemplate calling a doctor.

[Tiruin]

[...]
Then you reflection winks at you.

Mental State: Alarmed[...]

((I love how these things aren't directly mentioned but pretty much noticed by our status :3))

Since we have high willpower, (from personal experiences): Step back and contemplate, recall the {passed away} Server incident, then our appearance at a warehouse, then the memory lapse, then this and the phone message.

> Browse through contact list on phone and ponder who would be the most trustworthy person in memory (if we had any, which I guess we might have?)

> Do we have any books at home that would describe these strange-occurrences-that-we-seemingly-don't know about? ((I notice these are more on psychological phenomena o_o))

>>>Alternative reaction: Look surprised, follow what Kashyyk said, THINK what Twi said, ponder Sosoku's idea, then [turn around and follow] the above?

((Hmm, I'm wondering if this is something normal, or there's something strange going on--the problem is 'How do we interact in these situations to get information' [since introspection doesn't necessarily seem to work]))

EDIT: If we go with asking it what it wants, watch the body language/movements for absolute mimicry!

(Back from the holidays!)

You try to think about everything that has transpired, but you don't think of anything that could explain this, or indeed anything. This is completely unprecedented from your experience.

You briefly consider panicking, but then do not panic. You calmly drape a towel over the mirror, and browse your contact list.

You have a few trusted friends- Jeff, down at the SK8tr 8. Never much of an extrovert, though.

You briefly search your meager collection of books, but you see nothing that could help you.
