Holy fuckin' shit, pal, you got a lot goin' on.

[maxxximumeffort]

I have... SO much going on.

[grandschemed]

That literally looked like somethin' out of an action movie. I'm expectin' yer stunt double to jump out anytime now.

[maxxximumeffort]

[gasp] Do you think I'm rich enough for stunt doubles?!

[grandschemed]

Do ya think ya can save up for 'em here?

[maxxximumeffort]

I don't need stunt doubles here! Please. Ha, or! Something, sure is wrong! Because now I remember why I don't care about injury I can't get injured. Jesus. How did they take that out? I'm not collared, or anything, some other way--? Does that, that make me human? Am I human? I am really babbling!!!

[grandschemed]

Ya look human enough to me but people usually can't take a bullet like it's no big deal.

[ definitely like, fascinated, even though he was joking earlier about the stunt double ]

Is there a way ya can test it without the, y'know, horrible risk?

[maxxximumeffort]

I tested that shit yesterday. You know, with a tiny cut, dingus.

[grandschemed]

So what, they took it away from ya?

[maxxximumeffort]

I don't know... even that collar didn't REMOVE it, just suppressed. Maybe it happens later?

[grandschemed]

Like -- bang, ya buy another memory back and get it?

[maxxximumeffort]

No holy shit I meant maybe it happened later in my life! Uh, can memories DO that?

[grandschemed]

I dunno, maybe ya remember some kinda mental trainin' shit that powers ya up?

[maxxximumeffort]

I'm... I don't think that's how my healing works but I don't know enough about my healing to dispute it and I REALLY HATE that I keep feeling like that.

[grandschemed]

Right, and s'not like you can do anythin' but get more memories and hope ya figure it out.

[maxxximumeffort]

Fuck.

[cradles his face in his hands.]

And I guess you and everybody else saw my fucking face.

[grandschemed]

Considerin' there's a pretty good chance I'm in the yakuza I'm pretty sure I'll see uglier mugs. I don't really give a shit.

[maxxximumeffort]

[laughs, sorta]

Man, I know how to use Japanese swords. I have probably killed yakuza. No offense.

[grandschemed]

None taken. I figure some yakuza are probably worth killin'.

[maxxximumeffort]

I'm about ten thousand percent sure now that I'm some kind of mercenary so, katana, katunnah.

[grandschemed]

I think I had a knife from home I might try'n get back, here. I dunno how popular katanas are nowadays unless yer really old-fashioned.

[maxxximumeffort]

Uh also they're cool. I refuse to get the least cool ninja turtle weapons until I have the other ones.

[grandschemed]

They're cool, I'll grantcha that, but they're kinda unwieldy if yer tryin' to be stealthy.

[maxxximumeffort]

Well, that's why I got these.

[he draws out a sai, twirling it between his fingers.]

I wonder how much of my backstory is in Japan? I mean, I've been there right? Anything salvageable? Was it just embarrassingly racist? Are we secretly best friends or a hot sidepiece?

[grandschemed]

[ he snorts. ]

Maybe it's gonna be a huge reveal eventually and we'll all start rememberin' each other.
