I don't know if that's what it's supposed to be (unlikely) but one of the birthday surprise prizes the kids can pick from at the office on their birthday sure looks an awful lot like a peteca!
The one on the left is the one from the school, the one on the right is a peteca.
Petecas are used in an Indigenous game by the same name that's very popular in Brazil (there are professional competitions and everything) where you bump the peteca from player to player kind of like in volleyball but without the net.
It's a popular game to play at the beach or in grassy outdoor areas.
There are official rules, but as I've only ever played it for fun with my mom and friends I don't know what those rules are.
Well, all this started of a screenshot from: https://imigrantesroadinvestigations.neocities.org/
that my friend, @yukiimufinz, sent me(or, sent us).
the screenshot is:
The easy way to explain all the things I'm going to say is that Peteca is searching to a body to use to kill people without guilt, the reasons? I'm not sure.
1. All this start with Lilian that after killing those people, felt guilty, so Peteca at being use her also felt that, so that's why the "letter" made by the little bit of awareness that Lilian had:
("I wasn't the one") Also, the archive is called "A_BODY_THAT_BECAME_USELESS_.png", that can be Peteca telling that Lilian wasn't usefull anymore or that she wasn't "the chosen one". It expressed more in here:
"perdão, lilian (i'm sorry, lilian)
mas seu tempo acabou (but your time is up)
você não era a escolhida (you were not the chosen one)
então (so)
não tenho (i don't have)
uma razão (any reason)
pra te manter (to keep you)
por mais tempo (for any longer)"
2. The second part was Bento, it started with the visions and then the acts, that maybe drove him to maybe kill Elize or someone else. I point to Elize 'cuz one casting line.
""I said stop the car. Let me out right now!"(emotional, demanding)"
(Or maybe he/she did it, we still don't know)
Also that she's dead, for this archive's name:
"bothdead.png"
(Yeah, I know that Kami and Socorro just think that Elize is dissapeared but, it's an archive name)
Continuing with Bento, after posibly killing someone anf feeling guilty, Peteca discard him and he died by a seizure or something similar. And again, Bento wasn't "the chosen one".
3. Third, Socorro. The actual body that Peteca is using is Socorro's. This was possible the most obvious but still. The proves appear in first and second video from Ghosttundra's channel and Socorro's "MySpace"(SpaceHey) blog. That isn't the important, the important is that maybe, they are "the chosen one", 'cause the difference between Lilian and Bento and Socorro was that Socorro were more easy to lost their empathy, this can be expressed by a blog post "this world sucks. also merry christmas", where Socorro talks that in their college they don't enjoy with their classmates and say that they're bad to them, so they hate everyone, except their coworkers that are also introverts. This can be a kind of start to some apathetic thoughts that can be in Socorro's mind.
Well, Peteca's control could start at maybe, Socorro's dreams and the seizures that they had, that slowly made they lost themselves and turn into someone different and apathetic, like the dialogue in the first video about Bento's dead body:
A similar reaction at a blog post("MY. ART") where at Bento's corpse, Socorro just edited adding gifs like they were nothing:
Also the white dialogues that are in some blogs of Socorro's can be signal of Peteca talking or just thinking:
"IT'S TRULY AMAZING TO SEE HOW MUCH YOU'VE DETERIORATED IN SUCH A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. YOU USED TO BE A FORCE, SOCORRO. NOW YOU'RE JUST COMIC RELIEF."-from blog post called: "where is my tube".
And finally with this, I can say that Socorro is lost and Peteca is the one who is controlling them, maybe they switch, maybe they're not, but my finally part of the theory is that Socorro is going to kill Kami, and if still they are like that unconscious self, they'll join to Fundação Mariposa.

Agora que tá famosa a fórmula de colocar nome próprio da personagem e a atividade relacionada à personagem como título (mais clichê que isso apenas as peças das máquinas de impressão ou corte-e-vinco), decidimos falar deste esporte sensacional que é a peteca sob o ponto de vista de Sila Batônica.
Bem, vamos lá. Esta crônica não é sobre Sila Batônica, mas sobre o esporte da peteca. Consideremos,…

Eerie and surrealist, all centered around a road with a haunting presence.
.......she missed them. she missed them badly. it was as if this was nothing but a cruel parody of the person they once knew. and here she was, left stranded in the darkness all by herself, with nobody to come to her aid anymore. they both were gone in different ways. both cruel, cruel ways.
.......concussed and lost, she wandered the unending tunnels like a white specter. someone who wasn't supposed to be alive - a dead girl walking.
