Segmented

If the four subjects from the Sebastian group were indeed living in some sort of "half-shifted" phase that would explain why it had been so hard to pinpoint them. But once we narrowed it down to their present location, it seems all we have to do is point the interceptors in the right direction and take off the leash, with the presumed risks that go along with that.
What remains unclear is why the subjects have chosen this particular time fragment, and furthermore, why they stayed together after the initial escape from Sebastian Group. There is speculation there's something here we're not seeing, whether that be an event or something else of mutual interest.
Everett Pedaf and I have set up a base camp of sorts in this fragment, but in order to keep a link to VChicago we do not have the luxury of "shifting" for fear of losing contact. That deserves a bit of an amendment, Pedaf doesn't know that shifting will potentially sever his link to "home" which Project Window would see as the lesser of two evils, the other being that Pedaf discover that by shifting he isn't as tethered to us as we'd like him to believe; but I did admonish that he only shift as an absolute last resort.
Another concern is that Pedaf will not be under his memory suppression regimen, a concession we had to make in order to ensure he didn't "forget" he doesn't belong in this fragment. But what comes with that is the fear of the schizophrenia-like symptoms that seem to bubble to the surface of someone who goes too long without the suppression.
It would be interesting to study the psyche of the four individuals, now having been without the conditions of the quarantine for so long. Dementia would probably be the least of their problems, and their sense of self would be nothing more than some abstract notion.
Having to establish a bond of sorts with Pedaf, or "Everett 32" has proven less difficult than I initially suspected.
I feel I will prove solely responsible when he is destroyed.
