[ It's a new day! Hopefully, you're feeling a little less zappy, jelly-like, and zany. And if you're not? Maybe that's the perfect excuse for ✨memories✨. ]

No no, I'm sorry for startling you, I didn't mean to.

I'm feeling much more like myself, yes, in part thanks to your care.

[ A moment of thought, then. ]

I believe you may have purchased a memory by accident just now.

[malumdiscordiae]

[ /// ] I didn't do that much. X was the real hero.

[ ... ] oh. Uhm, [ shit. ] ...oopsff. [ his lips draw into a thin line and he tries for a laugh, but it comes out kind of nervous. his memories are a whole lot of something - a mixed bag - so he's kind of... worried. ]

What kind of memory did you see?

[alchemechanical]

A performance that was quite wonderful, but appeared to have been... taken over by some kind of demonic creature.

[ perks up, relieved, ]

You had a chance to hear me sing! I hope yo-

[malumdiscordiae]

[ fuck. ]

oh.

...oh no.

[ what else is he supposed to say to that. ]

[ swallows thickly. ]

Y- Yeah, I... [ lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie. ] ...remember that... being bad. [ you fucken idiot. ]

[alchemechanical]

I wasn't certain if that was something you'd like for others to know about. I fyou'd prefer, I can avoid bringing it up again.

[malumdiscordiae]

...no, it's, ah, it's alright. I mean, it's kind of out there now, huh, and... m- maybe we can go... somewhere else... and talk...

[alchemechanical]

[ Offering his hand. ]

If you're comfortable with that.

[malumdiscordiae]

[ gets up, taking his hand. ] I don't mind. I probably owe you a bit of an explanation.

[alchemechanical]

Not at all. If you'd rather leave it in the past, we can do that too and I'll take you out for something fun instead.

[malumdiscordiae]

...ah, well, [ he takes a breath. ] I am trying to figure out what's going on with my memories. I don't know if you've seen any of the others, but... they're a mess. Jumbled and static-y. I take them sometimes to see if I can find the source of that crap. It hasn't been going well, but, well, maybe it's the demon.

[alchemechanical]

Would it help if you had someone to discuss them with to lay out a chart relating them?

[malumdiscordiae]

You'd help me like that?

[alchemechanical]

Of course.

[malumdiscordiae]

[ /// ]

...then, sure, I wouldn't mind the help. [ smiles, a bit nervous, but he's charmed. ] I guess I should probably... show you the other memories I've taken here then, right?

[alchemechanical]

We should first find somewhere we can take extensive notes. Would you like to come to my room?

[malumdiscordiae]

Sure~! as long as you don't mind. [ going to take his arm and start dragging him back to the hotel. ]

[alchemechanical]

Not at all.

[ Escorting like a gentleman!! ]

Do you feel a little less stressed now?

[malumdiscordiae]

A little. I'll feel even less! less!! stressed if we make some kind of headway.

[alchemechanical]

Is it something that's been bothering you a lot?

[malumdiscordiae]

...ah, kind of. [ he mellows out a little. ] It's frustrating. I probably haven't said, no real reason to have done so, I guess, but I'm an audition. I should have all of my memories and yet... a bunch of them are just jacked up. I'm missing something. And even if I replay them... nothing. A few people seem to think they're being messed with or I'm repressing something... yeah, well, whatever it is I want to get to the bottom of it.

[alchemechanical]

Oh... that's a unique case. So your amnesia is natural, but you still have to pay points to recover those memories?

[malumdiscordiae]

I can kind of remember them, but... not really? I remember as much as you guys see. It's just a big big BIG mess. [ his shoulders slump. ]

[alchemechanical]

Well, then I'll work hard to make it less of a mess for you.
