[Fox is still out and about investigating, putting all of his nifty equipment to good use as he's dealing with the recent appearance of the monsters. When he finally takes a break, it's to catch up with things in general as well as family.]

This might sound like a weird idea, but has anyone managed to capture or otherwise contain one of those beasts? Whatever they are, they could potentially be worth studying. I know I'd find the added information valuable for the S-Files. [The "S" standing for shift, of course- this stuff has always interested him a great deal.]

Beasts and the strangely vivid dreams... I wonder if these things are connected, and if so, how? I mean, it can't be a coincidence they're appearing at the same time, right? The dreams themselves are still troubling. Last night's felt like it was really happening.

[Filtered to family- Jonathan, Andrew (?), ...and yes, even Squall]

How are all of you holding up? You'd better not have gotten yourselves taken away anywhere in all of this mess.

You had that impression as well, then?

[Nothing terribly notable on the video. Mostly, it's recordings of the beasts sniffing around various buildings and pacing various paths. Things get interesting whenever they approach a villager, though, mostly because that's about the point where Giles throws a rock at it.]

I keep wondering if that had something to do with why they were following Helios so closely.

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

Hm... That could be. It seems like they attack mainly if provoked... Did they attack Helios at all? [He goes back and replays a couple of the more interesting bits, doing so a couple of times so he has a good feel for it.] Look at the way they move, they're so purposeful...

[consultmybooks]

Yes, they are. You see how they, um, how they seem more interested in certain villagers than others? Even when those villagers don't make a move towards them at all?

He...didn't give it the chance to reach "provoked" once it had backed him up against a tree.

[He considers that a little while.] What's so special about the ones they chase after... what do they have that these beasts want?

[Ah, frustrating, but also a conundrum that Mulder wants to resolve somehow.]

[consultmybooks]

If I knew, I could stop recording the damn things.

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know. [Sigh, so close and yet. So far.] It's at least something to go on.
