LULU. get over here. it's ~sun

Okay so first off I want you to know how pitiful you're being. I've watched you try to console herbe's family in this universe for months and months and let's just be honest here no amount of butterflies or coincidences or little signs is going to make any of them feel better about burying a child. That's not why I'm here though, I need your attention, I have a lead on what's going on.

Herbe is still conscious but they've been moved over to another universe into an equivalent body and timeline. Not quite the same as this one, but I guess it was the best ~moon could do on short notice. I found which universe herbe was moved to and I've been observing and mirroring records and footage for a while but ~moon's firewalls preclude me from actually interacting with herbe. Obviously I could break through the firewalls if I had enough time to work on it but that's not the point. ~moon is still as obsessed with you as ever and herbe is the bait to get you to jump to the new universe where ~moon took herbe.

I need you to take that bait, and jump over to herbe. ~moon just got them to start playing a video game that is revealing the story of DIOGENES to draw you into that universe. ~moon thinks that by invoking events you were close to, you'll know what universe to hop to. I dunno if that's actually your power or not, I don't even think ~moon is 100% sure, I know ~moon studied you to hell and back but still couldn't understand you, that's why ~moon is so obsessed with you in the first place anyway. But if you can listen and hop over, I need you to do that. Herbe needs you. And if you can distract ~moon by being there, ~moon won't want to bother herbe anymore, and I can do what I need to do. I know you don't want me anywhere near herbe, but you won't abandon them now just to keep me away from them. I know you.

not so much has happened lately but i'm still on edge. i think i'm gonna film some logs to just sit and talk about what's going on cause like, i wanna have record of what i was thinking in the moment, looking back on it. it's all really scary. i have no idea what the hell ~moon's deal is, i don't know how many moving parts are at play, but i just don't want to feel afraid to use my laptop anymore, so recording a video on my own is gonna be part of that. trying to be brave and all.

~sun popped up on my laptop and asked me to record myself while it showed me something. it pointed me to a specific timestamp on the video it showed me (the same one in première) and then asked me to calculate what time it was in like, year-month-day-hour-minute-second format, which wasn't that hard cause OBS titles videos with the current time when record is hit, so i just had to add 17 to it. then a program popped up asking me to enter the time, which i did, and it said it was valid. it asked me if i wanted to see the "associated code" and the comments and I replied Y (yes) to both but nothing showed up. figured ~sun was just doing something weird and making me wait but apparently ~sun expected me to actually see something?? and now it sounds like there's another thing involved in the whole situation, whose name is ~moon. ~sun keeps saying there's code that affects me but i don't really know how that would work. anyway, ~sun suggested that i upload what i had to youtube and try to rewatch it and see if something popped up, so i uploaded it here. i rewatched it but surprise surprise nothing changed.

maybe i'll make a forum post about it or something. regardless, i am... less than thrilled to learn that there's another entity in the mix. it's already confusing enough

so about a week ago some weird shit started happening on my laptop. there were these message boxes and stuff popping up that i couldn't control, and it seemed to respond to what i was saying out loud. i thought it was a hacker (it might still be?) and I couldn't do anything about it but the weirdest thing was how much it knew about me. it started showing me videos of myself that i have 0 recollection of filming. like, it seemed like i made the video on purpose, i just have no memory of doing it. there's an entire second youtube channel that as far as I know I never made, I don't have anything to do with, but in a hidden video I seem to be talking about it like it was mine a year ago.

anyway the person on my laptop has been really weird and threatening. i don't think it actually means me harm (it could have fucked up my whole laptop if it wanted to obviously) but i still get the vibe that we're not on the same team. i feel like it wants something from me. it says its trying to tell me a story about something that already happened, and it keeps making references to "DIO" and i think it's talking about me? from back then? but it keeps acting like that's a different person.

the thing on my computer seems to go by the name "~sun" but that's pretty much all I know about it. stuff really started getting disturbing when videos started appearing on my youtube channel without me uploading them. three have shown up:
première
dispute
enchantée!

and all three of them are pretty different. i know what video is shown in première because ~sun showed me it after i did some task for him but in première it's skipped through and a bunch of random sections are shown. in dispute it seems like ~sun is having an argument with someone named LULU???? i don't even understand what they're talking about but i don't trust either of them, if they're even seperate people. i think ~sun might be messing with my head. and then there's enchantée which i just can't make heads or tails of, but the worst part is that i'm in that video. i'm in that video in a room i do not recognize, i don't know when it was filmed, i don't know who put it up there. it had to be recent because of my hair length and color and that's scary.

i wanted to get some extra eyes on whatever's going on here and maybe some advice. i've created a forum at diogenes.boards.net to talk about what's going on.

wish me luck y'all
