You arrived home close to 5 a.m. both tired and curious. You hated working 12-hour shifts but at least you were paid well. You decided your curiosity outweighed your tiredness and grabbed your laptop and searched both Marble Hornets and TotheArk. There were clearly too many videos to watch in one sitting so you split your time into hour-long intervals. Taking breaks to eat, use the bathroom, and take social media breaks because it was hard for you to take in all of this information at once.

How were you supposed to believe any of this shit? Is Tim just pulling your leg? Tim has a pretty decent sense of humor but this seems off for even him. Then again you only know him at work. You also remember seeing all of those empty pill bottles in his house and what happened the other day at his house fits with what was shown in Entry #61. You felt a range of emotions flowing throughout you but the main one was fear. Even though you didn't really have anyone important in your life to worry about passing this shit onto but you still didn't want to lose your memory randomly.

You didn't fear death but you did fear the idea of losing who you are and your memory. You watched your dad lose his memory and life to Alzheimer's and it was one of the most traumatizing experiences and you never wanted to experience anything close to it in your life. Suddenly, your phone beeps and you see a message from Tim and the time. Holy shit, was it really 3 p.m.? Luckily, you didn't have to work today but you knew Tim must be on his way there. You read the message.

"how far have you gotten"

"All of it..."

"im sorry"

"It's not your fault."

"but it is"

You set your phone down not wanting to distract him anymore and walked to the bathroom. You look into the mirror and stare blankly for a moment questioning a little bit of everything. About Tim, his masked state, the hooded man, Jay, Alex, The tall faceless, and the TotheArk channel. You noticed many odd things about TotheArk besides the obvious such as the patterns in the video that weren't the codes. More specifically color schemes, nicknames, the biblical themes.

You stared blankly into the mirror just thinking for who knows how long. You never went to college like Tim but that wasn't because you weren't smart. You were actually really good at codes and noticing patterns. You stared a bit longer until you noticed something odd being reflected in the mirror. As soon as you whipped your head around it was gone. You decided to run out of your bathroom to grab your keys to go for a drive. When you looked out the window seeing it was pitch black outside.

Confused, you look at your phone seeing it was 11 p.m. There was no way you were standing in the mirror for that long. Then again apparently you're starting to lose your memory and your sense of time. You hesitantly set your alarm for the night and crawled under the covers. There wasn't much else you could do other than sleep and hope no one else from those videos knows who you are.
