... I'm sorry, Amalthea.

[he directs his gaze to the flowers, looking a little wistful as he thinks of shouxue who is the one person he wanted to see the hydroponics section but ALAS.]

What were they like?

[dropoffs]

They were a little awkward, very into their research, but always open to company. I found them calming... [ sorry, Charles. Shouxue is dead for reasons. ] It's scary to think how memories of them were lost to me not too long ago.

[riverbeans]

... Yeah. I've had my memories altered with before as well, and it's not pleasant to think of how easy it is to forget someone you knew.

Mind if I show you the crew roster again, and see if it helps jog any more memories?

[dropoffs]

I remember Callisto mentioning it briefly... [ Smart cookie because she didn't think about it. ] Mm. Sure, go ahead. [ and i'll try to quickly give you something measurable for your pcs. ]

[riverbeans]

[:pensive: but he will show her the roster]

[dropoffs]

[ Is this a handwritten roster? Amalthea looks at it. ] I remember Miss Brooks and Chief Hans already... [ But... Her eyes widen as she highlights these names i guess by pointing so she doesn't screw up Charles' document: Ellya Gavin Kieran Rhys ] I... These, too! Just now!

[riverbeans]

[excellent question uh maybe it is a handwritten roster yes he is a ye olde he still likes having stuff down on paper

he blinks in surprise at the exclamation.]

Ohhh! Congratulations?

[impatiens]

I've never remembered so much at once...

[riverbeans]

... Is your head okay?

[impatiens]

... I think so?! It's... A weird feeling.

[ ... ]

Maybe I need a moment.

[riverbeans]

Take all the time you need. Need, uh, water or tea or anything?

[impatiens]

... Some water would be nice. I'm going to sit down in the Life Support section.

[ Comfy comfy. ]

[riverbeans]

All right, I'll be right back.

[goes to retrieve water for poor amalthea]

[impatiens]

[ Lies down on the floor, limbs out like a starfish. ]

[riverbeans]

[comes back...










i see]

... Amalthea? You still alive there?

[impatiens]

Yeah, I'm alive. It's really comfortable in this room.

[ She sits up. ]

[riverbeans]

[hands her the water]

I do like it a lot.

[impatiens]

Thanks.

[ She takes a sip... ]

... It's really weird to remember some stuff.

[riverbeans]

Heh... I'd think so. Weird in a neutral way, or a good or bad way?

[impatiens]

... Neutral because it isn't a bad thing. Right?

[riverbeans]

... Yeah. I think it's good to remember.

[impatiens]

I think so, too. Even though I don't remember it all and I... Think whatever is missing might be awful, it's better if we remember.

[riverbeans]

[a little smile]

Well, all of us are here for you when you do remember, and if it turns out to be terrible.

[impatiens]

... It really is nice to have people around and I feel bad for saying that.

[ Because if they weren't here, they wouldn't be suffering. ]

Thank you.

[riverbeans]

Hey, don't feel bad. I didn't sign up to be here, but if there's a crisis, then in a weird way, a part of me is glad to know about it.

And I'm happy to have met you too, of course.
