[There's a quiet crunching sound before Mulder speaks up, sounding thoughtful.]

Show of metaphorical hands. Or antennae, whichever you're partial to: Who here has been kidnapped for a special one-on-one date with our captors? I'd like to arrange an off-journal meeting to speak about your personal experiences if anyone happens to have some free time. It shouldn't take long, just a few minutes. I'll be hanging around the shops in town most of the day, I've got some... supplies I've been meaning to find. [Still looking for a basketball, woe and alas.] We can always head elsewhere from there, though.

I understand that it's a sensitive topic for most people, and it's all right if you'd rather not talk about it. Or if you'd rather be anonymous, just slip a note under my door detailing anything you can remember about the experience itself. Anything at all, before, during, after. Your answers will be kept in confidence. I'm in Community Building 7, Floor 2, Room 10.

I've been taken before. It's sort of hard to talk about, but, it's important, if it can help to understand and stop them.

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

That's the long-term goal, as always. Would you be willing to meet somewhere and discuss the experience? I could always go to where you are, if you'd rather not leave.

[He's in one of his more "paranoid THEY could be listening" moods.]

I was taken by the Malnosso some time ago and it seems you live in the came community building as I do, perhaps you would like to meet then?

[ voice | filtered ]

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that would be perfect actually. I can head back there now. Your place or mine?

[video - poorly filtered]

[purpledemoneyes.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure everyone has, at least once.

[video - poorly filtered]

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

[Wry laugh.] Maybe I should be asking, who hasn't?

I actually have yet to experience it myself, but I've only been here since this past March.

Are you saying you've been taken before?

Private

[survivethesiren]

See you're on the case, as usual.

I would figure out how to be taken, if I could. First hand experience would do us a great deal of good.

Private

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

Our work here is never done.

[Mulder thinks a moment.]

I was thinking about that earlier, actually. Not that I exactly like the idea of risking anyone else, but... I wonder if there could be a surefire way of provoking a kidnapping, after planning ahead for such an occurrence.

[He'll leave out details on how to plan ahead over the journals, but he's thinking of things one could try to have along and record the experience, things that could be well concealed. HE'S DETERMINED TO TRY despite how futile it all seems.]

[Voice]

[consultmybooks]

...good lord, you're only three floors down.

...there was another kidnapping that I wasn't involved in, but did...overhear and help mop up. Might be of some help. Shall I stop by?

[Voice]

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

[Oh, Mulder had not realized that either! ...He can be a failed thing at normal socializing though.]

Actually, that would be of considerable help, I'd appreciate hearing anything you've got. Stop by whenever you're up to it.

[i_speak_softly]

Where can I meet you? [Since he also has some other things to say that are probably best kept off-journal.]

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

If you're willing to come over to Community Building Seven, I just got back to my place.

[And he's pretty sure the place isn't bugged. He... sort of checks almost everyday for Ways They Could Be Listening.]

[chaincutter]

First, explain your motives. Then you ask for private information

[written]

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

That's a reasonable request.

[He's pretty used to this sort of thing, and sort of expected it happening a few times.]

I'm Agent Fox Mulder, of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. You could think of that as a specialized type of law enforcement- I investigate crimes with a paranormal angle to them.

While I'm stuck here... the Malnosso and their sick experiments are my top priority. The more that can be learned about them, the more information put together, the better chance there is at figuring a way out of this mess.

[Voice]

[semper_cogitans]

Ah, Mr. Mulder... I unfortunately cannot contribute much information, as I have only witnessed kidnappings second-hand via the journal systems...

... But I would be pleased to provide a direct account, should I ever be able to. [And he definitely will be able to, one day, because his mun is cruel.]

Would you need any assistance in obtaining those supplies? [Robert is a bit lonely/depressed still and is not against the idea of helping Mulder out.]

[Voice]

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

That's perfectly fine, Robert, I'm pretty much in the same boat as you are. I'd like to hear what you have to say.

[Mulder knows it's insane and he shouldn't WISH to be abducted. But he does kind of want to know all there is to know...]

If you want to head out and find me, I'm poking around the shops. [Laughs lightly.] Just promise not to think any less of me if it turns out that I'm not exactly on the hunt for any... serious supplies.

[herotypical]

I've been taken twice. I'm not shy about it -- but it's been a while. Almost a year and a half since my last trip.

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

Would you be willing to share the details of your experience, anyway?

[Voice/Filtered]

[eidolon-soul.livejournal.com]

I've been kidnapped several times over the past couple of years.

Normally, I'd say stop by the Welcome Center, but...I'd rather go somewhere less public for this.

[Voice/Filtered]

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, all we'd need is to traumatize some unsuspecting New Feather who wanders in...

I appreciate your willingness to talk, though. We could head off for a little walk in the forest, maybe, get away from prying ears? I don't mind having you come over to my place, either.

[Covered in the shells of so many sunflower seeds, but he can clean that up.]

[Voice]

[honorthecode.livejournal.com]

I haven't been kidnapped. [That he remembers anyway. He was kidnapped his first time here, but not since returning.] I did try to stop some one from getting kidnapped, though. If that would be anything of help.

[Voice]

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

Have you been here very long? [He's very interested now, since a lot of people seem to go through it eventually.] Anyway, even an account of one happening should still be worthwhile information.

Would you be willing to meet anywhere particular around town? Or off the beaten path a little, by the lake?

voice

[lunarianlegacy.livejournal.com]

I have. Three times.

[Someone might just sound a touch grouchy about it.]

voice

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

I wonder what it is that makes them really enjoy taking certain people more than others...

Would you be willing to provide details about your abduction experiences?

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

I've been taken by 'em. Why are you interested in knowin' what they do? Isn't it usually just the same fer everyone?

[Voice]

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

I've heard there could be room for variation, though.

[That and he wonders if someone, anyone, has a detail that will give them something more about their captors. Something useful.]

I'd like to hear your story, if you're willing.

[voice]

[gamblinghigh.livejournal.com]

I have, although I can't imagine my words would make much of difference in this hand.

[voice]

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

Would you be willing to talk about it anyway?
