Kenzi [011] Video - mid day 68

[onteamdyson]

[The communicator turns on with a sharp whack before suddenly turning off again. And on. And off. And on--] Stupid piece of spy-reject, cattle-tagging crap. Get. OFF!

[When it comes back on and stays on, it's obvious by the scratches in the paint that it was being banged against a wall. Kenzi turns the device on her wrist to peer at it, into it, and she stares... until realization hits her.]

... Oh. Oh shit.

[He knows she doesn't know him very well, nor he her, but she looked a bit distressed.]

You alright!? [A pause.] You were gone, weren't you? Are you all right!?

[video]

[onteamdyson]

Uh... yeah? [Is she alright?] Yeah. No, I mean, I'm fine. I was--

I was home.

[nevermindtherunning]

And do you remember... what happened? I mean, back home.

[This was rather curious. When he left and came back, he had no recollection of what happened.]

[onteamdyson]

[She nods slowly.] All of it. It's like none of this ever happened and I was back there, but now that I'm back here it's like... double memories. Like I was gone for a billion and a half days, but I wasn't.

[nevermindtherunning]

Interesting...

I wonder how it happens some remember, and some don't. But you said you didn't remember this place when you left...?

[onteamdyson]

Yeah, totally interesting. My guess is tiny, brain-eating worms that go in through your ears and chew up cortexes and grey matter and then spit them back out. Or maybe they have tiny pixies in jars and they just sprinkle magical dust over your face. DUDE! Why does it matter? They're all-powerful and we're powerless. What's the point?

[Someone's sarcastic today. And it sounds like she's starting to give up.]

[nevermindtherunning]

[That earned a bit of a chuckle.] I dunno about the worm bit, but it is rather curious how some people remember, some don't.

And we're not completely powerless. With all of us here, we can come up with something.

[onteamdyson]

Yeah? Something? Something like what?

[nevermindtherunning]

Oh, I have plans.

[There might be a wicked grin upon his face.] I'm not just going to sit by any longer.
