[Well, lookey here. Seems like a bunch of nerds taking memories. Care to join?]

Comments

holy shit i just noticed these. If it's too late to tag in I understand

[we_meet_again]

[Wandered into the kitchen for a snack and got sucked into memory-watching]

Wow, that was a lot!

...You have a little brother!

It's never too late <3

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Yes. He's my vice president.

[At age 11.

Like you do.]

<3!

[we_meet_again]

Waah that's so cool!

What kind of company did you have?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Gaming. Holographic technology. Amusement parks.

[Of the "gonna murder you" variety. Sadly, it applies to all of those things. Not just the amusement parks]

[we_meet_again]

Well, that explains a lot.

Was that VR in the last memory? Is that something you made, too?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Blinks at that question, determining how to best answer it.

He ends up with---]

No. That wasn't VR.

[Looks around at the gathered FiN who are chattering about their own memories and turns back to Cobalt]

I've seemed to forgotten something in the dorm. Care to come with me to pick it up?

[we_meet_again]

Lead the way.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Then with one last glance at his unit, he's going to head back to the elevators and press the button for the FiN floor]

[we_meet_again]

[Following along]

How was bingo?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Huffs.]

Awful.

[AKA they didn't win]

I see pep!pep! came out in full force.

[we_meet_again]

That was kinda wild. I can't even remember the last time every single person on our unit showed up for a game.

Ahhh you had to listen to my joke for nothing. What a tragedy.

[Elevator doors open to the fin landing]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

What a tragedy.

[And into the FiN main room they go because everyone else is still outside so they don't have to bother with the lab]

Obviously all of this stays between you and me. Or whoever is in your inner circle.

[we_meet_again]

[...Now he's gonna have to think about who on Eos is in his inner circle. It's not as many as you might expect.]

I can agree to that.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I'm assume you were able to guess from Nine-Nine's heart that back home he's dead. Well. The same is true of King.

[we_meet_again]

Right... Nine-Nine and Yugi both said something similar after I saw some of their memories. Apparently both Nine-Nine and King are... ghosts of some kind? Spirits? Trapped in the necklaces, able to possess the body of whoever wore them.

Is that correct?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Yes. Nine-Nine was put down. Probably violently. And King was sent back---

[There is a roll of his eyes here]

After his duty was supposedly complete.

[we_meet_again]

Sent back where? What was his duty?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Don't have the memories for the first question.

As for the second - to the Egyptian afterlife. Pharaohs are consider gods who walk the earth, you know.

[we_meet_again]

[He didn't, in fact, know that.]

Oh wow. So now even his ghost has moved on? He's completely gone from your world?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Gone in my plane of existence. Ascended to a higher dimension.

But then that brings us back to your original question. Was that VR? No. That was using the collected consciousness of connected people as a power source to jump dimensions.

And yes, I invented it.

Wouldn't that be a powerful tool in our arsenal if I could perfect it.

[we_meet_again]

...Holy shit.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I guess memories are good for something.
