We should coordinate. We can't necessarily trust each other, but we have to work together.

What We Know:

• "They" have his heart. Mimics, strangers, whatever we want to call them. There were "too many" and they were "waiting among you". Anon can't tell us apart from mimics, and they're out here among us.
• "Don't let them steal from you." Why is this worth particular mention?
• Adults all seem to be frozen. We can't touch them. Anon says they're safe.
• Anon is "leading him on a chase" but he doesn't "know how long he'll follow". Grimshaw? Is he not frozen too?
• Anon can bring Brother back if we find the pieces he left of himself. He can "stop all of this" and "make it so it never happened". We don't know exactly what that means, but it seems like our best bet.

The Clues:

• "A stone that glows like sunrise, given to someone he wanted to trust"

Jade?

• "A flower that shines like the moon, where there are always blooms"

Gardens? Greenhouse?

• "A gem of familiar colors, hidden by those who speak and decide"

Sorting cave?

• "A stone like a beating heart, in the place you go to play your games"

Quidditch pitch? Lake? Grotto?

• "A stone that glitters like night, where you can see the stars best"

Astronomy tower? Coppertale fields?

• "A head as white as a pearl, found long ago in these woods"

Skull? Ghost Pearl?

• "A feather as blue as the sky, from the jay who loved you most"

[...] Merrill? HoM classroom? Basement on his body?

• "And another bird, alone but alive, in a place long abandoned"

Grotto? Lone Wolf Island? Mines?

Let's brainstorm what these places could be. If you've visited any locations, and had anything noteworthy happen, say so.

If anyone sees Teddy around, he's safe. He's not a mimic. Please tell me where he is.

Solomon and I just left the Ornery Oak and are headed towards the Lodge from bighorn, it's just the two of us so if anyone is nearby, let us know and maybe we can join you? Or if you're alone, you can join us.

THIS IS THE WORST NIGHT OF MY LIFE!!

[Lilika]

Where are you are you okay it is SO MESSED UP everything is so messed up and scary!!

[Sophomores]

GUYS I was with a group of senior boys and one of them was a mimic or some of them were mimics I don't know but I almost DIED! I tried to tell them that something was off because like I Sensed it but they didn't listen because I'm a baby or whatever.

It looks like it's up to US to save the day of COURSE!

Oh my blahblah god, where is everyone? I just woke up. blahblahblahblahfeelings Not that I'm scared or anything [...] just [...] it's important for me to know where everyone is. It's probably important for everyone to know where everyone is. So we can coordinate.

I'm [...] alone right now, but I'll come assist with [...] whatever this mess is. I can't believe these monsters think they can just somethingblah [...] come here and ruin things like this. I have too many feelings so I'm probably upset about Mr. Merrill too!!!!!! Waaaaah!!!!! I hope everyone is keeping a brave face. After everything that's happened.

[...]

I pretend I'm brave even though I'm a huge baby that cries a lot!!!

We need to be cautious.

It was made from the emblems. They're in the gem and they're going to help us.

I know I said before that Jaime was with Ennis, Webster, and me. But I think everyone needs to know that we were wrong. He was a mimic. He tried to Ennis s He's dead now. He had the real Jaime's journal, though.

I haven't heard anything from you. Or about you. I hope you're all right. Let me know if you can?

I'm trying to be strong like you said but
