After the previous post, I made lunch, and my mind was flowing a bit again. I thought about how they moved and something interesting emerged because I think it might be an important point in identification, assuming they are thought-forms.
I have said that the creatures "moved as one", so to speak.
The grouping aspect was quite interesting. I got the impression that it wasn't like a "hive mind" but perhaps "synchronous minds" (?) because there was, what I would call, complex coordination. All the creatures were travelling as one unit until the little one got in trouble, one turned and went back to check (which shows at least a basic level of concern), while the rest stopped and waited. The little one reoriented itself and returned to the group on its own, with the big one following after it had its own mishap. The group then continued on as a single unit. This indicates communication happening between these creatures. I don't know what kind of communication since I heard no sounds coming from them.
I wrote "hive mind" and "synchronous minds" but now I'm thinking that they "moved as one" because it was perhaps
one mind controlling the group.
A cheesy example popped in my head: rub your tummy in circles, and pat the top your head at the same time. If you can do it, try changing hands. For a lot of people this takes a surprising amount of concentration for something so simple.
In the case of the little creatures, let's assume that they are thought-forms, for a moment, and being projected by one being. The one controlling them might want to be as energy efficient (and discrete?) as possible so why make a complex "Man in Black" when an insect-thing would do? Bugs on sticks. That never happens on Earth. Less questions asked too, whereas a "Man in Black" might be potentially much more noticeable. When the main group stopped and didn't move, I propose the one controlling the thought was concentrating on the actions of the little one who fell and the "adult" that went back for it, while maintaining minimal energy on the others. If you think about it, the other five little ones (as well as the other "adult") didn't move at all. Well, that makes them the best children anyone could have. If they had independent minds, I'm thinking they would at least act a little bit independently. But none of them turned around to see what was happening, they didn't wander off or get restless. They were "frozen" as if they were in "pause mode". When the other two rejoined the group, there was a slight pause before they all continued at the same time like a Sargent barking out the order for the squadron to "march!" Left, right, left, right. I wonder if the slight pause was that mind refocusing on the group as a whole.
Something I thought of after was about the "flip". I comically imagined this as a case of "showing off". Although, that might no be so funny, actually.
After thinking about this while still making lunch, a memory popped into my head from 5 or 6 years ago when I was playing an on-line game called Diablo 3. I remember playing with a group of 3 others but one of them was acting weird. You did see these weird players sometimes and you just made up whatever story in your mind as to the reason for their strange gameplay until the group finally had enough and boots them for being annoying as heck. Well, in this one game, I finally realized what these players were. They were bots. Nobody but code was controlling them. It was weird to see how the code made the character "attach" to a real player and follow them around, shooting when the real character did (sometimes in the wrong direction, very annoying), opening doors that nobody wanted open yet (really annoying), somehow getting "detached" from the "leader" and winding up standing in a corner for hours doing nothing. There was also never any communication from them (which in itself is not that unique). The whole point of these bots was to level up the character as fast as possible without putting in the time to play the game and doing something else like sleep or work. Whatever. I don't play it anymore. Good game but Diablo II was better.
Something else I noticed while making lunch was a feeling in my solar plexus area. It was a slightly unpleasant lightness and bubbly feeling. It went away while I was eating but returned when I went to the store. It's gone now. I don't know what that was or if this was related.
The last thing I want to mention is off topic. After lunch I went to get a pouch of (Northfield) organic tobacco. It was about 2:40, and I was having a smoke and letting the car warm up on the driveway when to the north of me, I saw a plane flying by (east to west) quite low and slow. Now, this is not unusual at all and happens every day over our town. But after watching it pass by, I noticed that it was all white, no markings, with a large round object hanging under the nose. The wings were long and very straight but weirdly narrow. It had a single tail fin. Then I noticed that there were no windows. It was a freakin' drone! I don't think I've never noticed one of those here before.
rrrr... Who put this idea in my head? Was it designed to obfuscate or was it a clue?
