So it's kinda coo'. Been hearin' people comin' back an' all. Phones got his butt back in Luceti so now I get ta' punch him wheneva' I want.

But uh.........

......

Been lotsa people goin' home, too. Guess that's coo' too, but...... Well.... I've been thinkin' yanno?

......

....What do people do when they get forgot? I-I mean, peeps from Luceti don't remember this place, right? ....So what'dya do then? When you get forgot?

......


...Nngh, naw, forget it. This is dumb. This is why I ain't suppose to think.

[he flips the book against the bed and flops onto it with a heavy sigh]

[skaterbrain]

...Sorta. More like she forgot me back when we was home and still don't remember here.

[voice]

[i_am_not_cute]

Ah...so her forgetting you doesn't have anything to do with Luceti.

[voice]

[skaterbrain]

W-wait, what?! I mean, yeah, thereomeritically talkin' and all, aight? Not like this is really happenin' or nothin'!

[voice]

[i_am_not_cute]

It isn't?

[voice]

[skaterbrain]

N-naw..... 'course not. It's uh....a friend a' a friend or whateva' people call it.

[voice]

[i_am_not_cute]

But you said she forgot you...

[Now Pao-Lin is confused. :(]

[voice]

[skaterbrain]

N-no! Just.....forget about that stuff!

[aaaaaaaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuugh he's terrible at this]

[voice]

[i_am_not_cute]

Um...okay.

[And then suddenly, awkward silence.]

[voice]

[skaterbrain]

...............

It's just....complicated, aight?

[voice]

[i_am_not_cute]

Yeah, I know. I had to deal with memory loss back in my world, too...

[Though her situation was probably a lot different than Beat's.]

[voice]

[skaterbrain]

....Really? Did you lose your memory too?

[voice]

[i_am_not_cute]

For a little bit, yeah. Me and some of my other friends.

[voice]

[skaterbrain]

Damn.....what'd you guys do? I mean, if none of you remembered nothin', must've been hella hard.

[voice]

[i_am_not_cute]

We had to wait for someone else to give us back our memories, actually. I don't know if we would've got them back on our own...

[Not a pleasant thing to think about, considering that she and the other Heroes had been on the verge of arresting a fellow Hero under the mistaken impression that he was a murderous criminal.]

[voice]

[skaterbrain]

You think that's what's best? Waitin' for it or goin' out and gettin' it yo'self?

[voice]

[i_am_not_cute]

...I don't know, really. I mean, I guess you'd always want to try getting your memories back once you realized you forgot something, but if that doesn't work, then...there's not a lot you can do but wait, right?

[voice]

[skaterbrain]

...Yeah, guess so.

Thanks fo' talkin' to me, yo.

...'m glad you n' yo' friends remembered.

[voice]

[i_am_not_cute]

Thanks. I hope I helped a little bit. [She's not sure, really.]

I'm Pao-Lin, by the way.

[voice]

[skaterbrain]

Yeah, it helped.

Name's Beat. Nice to meet you, PL.
