Phonecall from WIB - 7/7/24

[blondie]

So context… I am chilling in an underground bar in Cardiff with my man when my phone starts ringing. He sees me freeze and yells at me to go, so I answer and start legging it up the stairs while I hear a woman’s voice singing to me… some in Welsh(I think), some in English. And as I reach the top of the stairs, I hear “God save the King!” and I start laughing.

So to summarise, we lament the state of Welsh weather… she calls me both by my birth name and my nickname… I ask her who I’m speaking to but she doesn’t give a name… she thanked me for “herding kittens” to which I responded “that’s kinda my job”… we talked about drip feeding info for dead drops and easy puzzles and helping people solve them (something I feel but don’t think I have voiced publicly- sorry if that comes across as harsh)… and she said “it’s boring…” to which I asked for clarification as to whether IT IS boring or if I AM boring. She said again, “it’s boring” and assured me that it’s not going to be that way this time around.

Then she said “you can ask me anything”. I’m about to say “well, how about we start with a name…” BUT SHE HANGS UP ON ME. So the big question is… I can ask her anything but where? Here?

WIB - you clearly get me… I think we could be mates. But I need to know your name.

Oh my God!!

This is the first call outside of Kansas City!

[Wanda102]

Looking at this and Cammie’s interaction it seems like we’re being cajoled into asking questions but teased for not asking the right ones. I love a power move.

[haleywilde]

It's time to compile some of our most pressing questions so we're prepared in case our opportunity arises

Oh man! I wonder what song she was singing. It def seems to be a theme with the calls today.

My phonecall experience that I got from WIB after blondie! Managed to record it ;)

Also: She said digital pencils down and to pay attention. So thinking I need to pay more attention (and also switch to traditional art teehee)

[Lexthewolf]

I've got SO MANY QUESTIONS.

Who do you work for and what do you hope to get out of this experience?
How do you like your toast?
Who do you, Darren, and Dan work for? are you all a part of the same team?
How much darker is it going to get?
How did Darren get involved? How did Dan get involved? Are you all on the same team?
What are the intentions of your group? what's the end goal?
Who leads your organization?
What song best represents the experience we're about to have?

The more answers we get, the more questions we'll have.

She also highlighted and seemed pleased that you had been paying attention, and I’m interested that she asked if you’d found your voice/were you ready to ask for what you really wanted.
…but like Blondie she didn’t give you a chance to ask anything. Not on the call at least. So i guess im wondering - are we asking her questions or asking her -for- something?

[haleywilde]

She also asked if you had found your voice, and to speak with your chest. Which has been said at least once before I think. Curious what it is they'r trying to get us to say with our chest.

[campbellstruts]

I'm gonna make a question list and keep it on hand with me at all times. That way if I get the opportunity again I won't black out lmao

I hope I'm not speaking out of turn here as I've not been privy to today's events, but if I may offer a thought? Try talking without moving your chest at all.

Not many people would hear that, right?

Blessings.

[campbellstruts]

honestly I just sound like a robot when I do...but if the point is not to use any air...then yes, no noise at all

Speaking with your chest is speaking with conviction, believing what you’re saying. Tell them what you want to know, tell them what you want.

Cam, Kass, Blondie too when you have time- I’d post on IG about your interactions, direct viewers to Exiled, and ask questions that others will be curious about too. And tell them what you want from this.

For me, I want to be able to go to Kansas City this fall and dig out the rabbit hole.

[campbellstruts]

Good plan. For me, I want to be challenged. I'm used to competition and I'm used to uncomfortable and difficult things; part of my job. I'm also used to giving things up for people and being a caregiver. I'm ready to see all aspects of that challenged for me.

Then again...I'm up for anything and everything they can throw at me. I may not be the best...but I can endure quite a lot.

I have no problem with confidently standing for and speaking with my chest for something I truly believe in.

Can you tell me why I should believe in you and your team?

I would love to have a conversation about what it is you're asking us to stand behind. What is your mission?

[Lexthewolf]

I've gotten to ask questions at the end of all the prior experiences I've been a part of... but when the time came, I had no idea what I wanted to ask.
if and when I go, I will be prepared this time.
How far can I go? And what will this experience teach me?

[haleywilde]

Ask for what I want?

I want a purpose. Give me something to stand for.
My loyalty is valuable, give me someone to be loyal to.

[kassidy.exe]

You make a good point Wanda. It’s been pretty silly overall with my interactions thus far, but what do I want from this?

I love getting lost in things like this. Immersed in the story and love getting involved as much as I can. Wrap myself up in a story and be pushed to extremes that challenge what I can handle.

But that’s a lot of the same things other people here want, right? An escape. The attention.
For me, this is mainly being a distraction. Something to look forward to, especially as spooky season draws very near and this year will be filled with lots of mixed emotions that I have been dreading. But being in this rabbit hole, knowing things are only going to get deeper and darker and more immersive is something I am very much looking forward to, because I know I can give it my all.

[campbellstruts]

Such a good point Kassidy!!!!

Details are too much for me sometimes, I do what I can but I wanna get immersed and make art here for it all but this is new to me so I wanna absorb as much I can in terms of the fun!

Thought Vomit: I feel it’s interesting that she (wib) seems to think we are harmless, as “kittens” and we are being provoked to either quiet down or be BOLD - say it with your chest from the IG. It’s like two opposing sides. Is it the same person from the same side or one finding us boring, tame kittens and the other wanting us beyond ourselves, loud and in your face.

It’s like mentally trying to move past someone but you just end up in the awkward dance, not sure how to move forward. Kinda swinging both directions.

In regard to the calls, I do feel like Blondies call was to ensure that she gets a different, new experience herself this time, which I love. Not just guiding lights from afar. I’m also very into her (wib) sassiness.
