[Well, isn't that a familiar face on C's live.]

Alexander: Another new unit.
Alexander: Trying them all out or does Hell simply not know what to do with you?

Warrior of Light: Sorry, who is this?

Alexander: How curious. A different Hero perhaps.
Alexander: Do you not remember being on Wild City?

Warrior of Light: I do not. Perhaps it was not me, or perhaps I lost my memory?

Alexander: The latter you can tell me. Would you have memories or not is hardly a mystery to you.
Alexander: And I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. Collect twelve more of you, and I'll have the entire set. Memories forgotten for the lot of you.
Alexander: Do you need any help settling in?

Warrior of Light: You have not answered my question.

Alexandar: Alexander of BARiTONES.
Alexandar: The devices do take a while to get used to.
Alexandar: As for what I am to you, well, only your memories can tell you.
Alexandar: But I was asked to be nice by someone who sympathizes with your situation. So here I am.

[it takes a long time for the next reply to arrive]

Warrior of Light: In that case, I'll accept the offer. I have no reason to turn down more help.

Alexandar: Wonderful. Shall I meet you at the live or would care for somewhere else?

Warrior of Light: Let's meet outside. I was leaving anyway.

Alexandar: Outside the hotel then.

[And he will meet him there, fur shawl and all, outside. He will probably be later, because he walks incredibly slow.]

Not a memory left in your head?

[he was fine with waiting because it gave him some time to prepare so he doesn't react to emet's presence too obviously]

Not a single one. Alexander, I take it?

[He sighs.]

Correct.

Give me your phone.

[He holds out a hand for it.]

...Why do you want it?

A few gifts sent directly to your dorm. Though if you just want to points, I can give you that, but I thought it would be a more personal touch.

[sighs but hands the phone over]

[Whenever he gets back to his dorm he will have (2) prepared meals, (1) fuzzy blanket and (1) potted plant of red chrysanthemums. There is also 1000 points in his account if he so desires to purchase and ability.

If he wants to watch over his shoulder, he can. Just to ensure he doesn’t snoop on other parts of his phone, but he is good and he does not.

He hands the phone back.]

Enjoy your stay as much as you can.

[wow emet you old softy he is going to cry when he's alone in his room and no one can see]

Thank you. I'll do my best.

[oh, no.]

You can do naught but your best, dedicated as you are. I do not know how Future is Now treats its new members, but have all your questions been answered?

I doubt they could answer all my questions even if they took all day. But they tried.

A commendable effort then. I suppose.

Do take care of yourself. These games do pretend to provide a sense of agency when none is to be had. And there is no guilt in protecting yourself.

...I hope you will follow your own advice as well.

While I don’t always take my own advice, on this I do.

But how kind of you to be worried.

One kind turn deserves another, as they say.

Hmm.

I would recommend getting an ability or two and then a memory. While it is deplorable they can take them from you, at least you have means to get them back.

And then perhaps we can discuss our mutual past. But I wouldn’t want to burden you with it from the start.
