Jonesy

There were some things science could not solve. He wouldn't say there was much, but there was a bit. And this... this was one of them. Staring down what had once been some of his dearest friends in the Estate, now turned into... whatever these things were. He could not explain this.

Regretfully, violence was the only answer. With a heavy heart, he attacked.

The head of the Squid Research Labs, Hisashi Nogami approaches his upcoming battles with gusto. This curious mind started as a face in the background of the Ultimus Estate, brought to the forefront after the course of the tournament pushed him into taking a more active role. While Nogami may be a bit more passive, his passion for exploration has given him many years of experience. Perhaps this knowledge will be what drives him to success...? Only time will tell, so press A to continue!

RESULTS - LOSERS ROUND 1 MATCH 2

LOG ADDED: 7/2/21

-start

Subject: John "Jonesy" Jones
Noted by: Arthur Candler

Now that we have a closer baseline for what to expect, today's experiment was much more lucrative than we were initially expecting. Jonesy's exposure to the White Noise was much shorter than the first subjects, yet the end result was about the same. Is it because he fought it earlier? Perhaps the White Noise thrives on opposition. Perhaps it thrives in pure sadism, giving the subjects a chance to fight back before taking them? We can't tell for sure. More experimentation is required. 

In the meantime, the copy that returned from the White Noise seems a little rougher this time. Not much, but it seems a little more unstable. Perhaps it reflects on general mood at the time. We have plenty of hypotheses within our team, and while we can't confirm any, we do know that we'll have plenty of time to do so. After all... everyone here is a potential subject. Everyone but one. I think I have something else in mind for that one.

Interestingly, this Jonesy copy seems much more... quiet. Reserved. Not quite introverted, but less "out there" than he used to be. This seems to be a real response from Jonesy's memories though, perhaps a component of fear or something along those lines. These reports will start getting shorter as we go, as the inconsistencies start to clear up. 

To help with that, I believe I'll keep a log of important happenings around the estate in these reports. It could prove to be helpful to my employer.

The flower outside the estate is growing much faster than I expected. If I recall correctly, it was planted by the contenders after Sayori's death. ...to be frank, her death is one I regret. A simple misunderstood identity. It should not be her blood on my hands. But alas, what's done is done, all we can do now is look to the future.

I intend to leave the flower as a reminder to myself.

[REDACTED] requires assistance with shutting down the test equipment. I'm going to go help with that. End log.

Terrified as he watched his beloved Ludicolo fade away. 

13th - Jonesy
A victim of two differences of one. One more vote, and...

Their statuses are unknown. One has to wonder what could have been. Your choices have been noted. 12 contenders remain.
