MEMORY BROADCAST

[criminaljustice]

[surely it's a good idea to blast a memory when you're feeling like the worst person around.

nothing could possibly go wrong with this!

. . .

in fact, he's kind of squinting at his phone, sitting on a BE=DE dorms' couch.]

[afailedmurder]

[it's not long at all before there is a knock on BE=DE's door]

[criminaljustice]

[guh. he feels like death still. but pulls himself off the couch to get the door.

. . .

immediately tries to shut it again.

SORRY MEMORY IS TOO FRESH.]

[afailedmurder]

[fails to stop him because he's carrying coffees in both hands]

—Hey!!

[criminaljustice]

[g-give him a second.

...

okay.

opening the door again. a crack this time. WARY.]

[afailedmurder]

[holds up one of the cups. look.]

After last night, I felt like you could probably use this.

[criminaljustice]

[. . . this is bribery. how dare a lawful detective resort to bribery.






of course this phantom thief is not against bribery on principle and thus takes the coffee, appeased, and allowing said detective entrance to the... bad dorms.]

[afailedmurder]

[sips his own drink as he walks into this depressing place where good taste goes to die]

somehow I put that in the wrong post I am so sleepy

[awakenerd]

I don't think I understood half that.

[criminaljustice]

[... uh. not sure if I can help much?]

Which parts?

[awakenerd]

You were talking to a cat, for one.

[criminaljustice]

... the cat was the one talking.

[awakenerd]

It's cute you kept a cat in your bag, though.

[That's the important thing here.]

Seems like kind of a tense situation.

[criminaljustice]

Sort of...

A's apparently the detective who was investigating me.

[so like. lol?]

[afailedmurder]

As far as I can tell, he's remembered our first meeting.

[yes that clearly explains everything]

[awakenerd]

That's how you met, huh? I can't say I pictured it but it isn't how I pictured it.

[afailedmurder]

Do you think so? It feels right to me, outside of the strangeness of watching myself saying things that I don't remember.

[awakenerd]

Well, since you lived it that's probably why. Even if you don't remember it.

[afailedmurder]

It was certainly interesting to watch myself from an outside perspective! Now I know how Boss feels when he sees himself in my memories.

[except probably not at all like that]

[motorcycle_noises]

[ You've got a message! ]

sanguine: was that a talking cat?

[criminaljustice]

Boss: yeah. yeah, it was.

[motorcycle_noises]

sanguine: okay, good
sanguine: at least i'm not crazy then

[criminaljustice]

Boss: so you speak flower and cat, huh

[motorcycle_noises]

sanguine: looks like
sanguine: guess i'm a man of many talents

[criminaljustice]

Boss: speaking of talents
Boss: you disappeared sometime last night
Boss: planning on being back soon?

[r u ok seems like a stupid question to ask but now that he's a bit more... with it. a little fussed that he was not with it enough the night before]
